2) A card is drawn at random from a pack of well shuffled 52 playing cards. Find the probability that the
card drawn is -
(1) an ace. (2) a spade.

3) If x = 5 and y = 3 is the solution of 3x + ky = 3. find the value of k.

4) 3
Determine whether the gives values of x is the root of given quadratic equation 6x2 - x - 2 = 0, x =
2

5) Find the sum of first n odd natural numbers.

Q.3 A) Complete the following Activity (Any one) (3)

1) 7
Out of a group of swans, times the square root of number of swans are playing on the shore of the
2
tank. Remaining two are quarreling in the water. Calculate number of Swans.

Let us denote number of swans by x.

Then the number of swans playing on the shore of the tank = _____
There are two swans quarreling in the water
By given condition,
7
x = √x + 2
2
7
∴ x − 2 = √x
2
∴ (x - 2)2 = ( )
7 2
2
×x

∴ 4 _____ = 49x
∴ 4x2 - 65x + 16 = 0
∴ _____ = 0
∴ 4x2 - 64x - x + 16 = 0
∴ 4x (x - 16) -1 (x - 16) = 0
∴ (x - 16) (4x - 1) = 0
∴ (x - 16) = 0 or (4x -1) = 0
∴ x = _____ or x = _____
We reject x = _____ and take x = 16

Hence the total number of swans is _____

2) The sum of the measures of angles of a triangle is 180º, of a quadrilateral is 360º, of a pentagon is
540º, and so on. Assuming this pattern, find the sum of the measures of angles of a dodecagon (i.e.
polygon with 12 sides).

Term number (n) 1 2 3 ... 10 ...

Sides of the polygon 3 4 5 ... 12 ...

Sum of the measures of angles 180° 360° 540° ... ... ...
Thus we have the first term a = _____
The second term _____ = 360, i.e. 180 + 180,
The third term _____ = 540, i.e. 180 + 2 x 180,
Thus we get each tern by adding 180 to the preceding term, here d = 180.
We have tn = a + (n – 1) d.
∴ t10 = _____
= _____
∴ = _____
Thus the sum of the measures of angles of a dodecagon in _____
