30 A box contains 90 discs which are numbered from 1 to 90. If one disc 3
is drawn at random from the box, find the probability that it bears
(i) a two-digit number.
(ii) a perfect square number.
(iii) a number divisible by 5.
31 In the figure, XY and X’Y’ are two 3
parallel tangents to a circle, x with
centre O and another tangent AB
with a point of contact C intersecting
XY at A and X’Y’ at B. Prove that
∠AOB = 90°.
Section D
Section D consists of 4 questions of 5 marks each.
32 In a class test, the sum of Shefali’s marks in Mathematics and English 5
is 30. Had she got 2 marks more in Mathematics and 3 marks less in
English, the product of her marks would have been 210. Find her
marks in the two subjects.

Radio towers are used for transmitting a range of communication
services including radio and television. The tower will either act as an
antenna itself or support one or more antennas on its structure,
including microwave dishes. They are among the tallest human-made
structures. There are 2 main types: guyed and self-supporting
structures. On a similar concept, a radio station tower was built in two
sections A and B. Tower is supported by wires from a point O.
Distance between the base of the tower and point O is 36 m. From

SOCIAL DISTANCE IN EXAMINATION HALL
In an examination hall,
students are seated at a
distance of 2 m from each
other, to maintain the social
distance due to CORONA
virus pandemic. Let three
students sit at points A, B and
C whose coordinates are (4, -
3), (7,3) and (8,5) respectively.
