SECTION A

This consist of 20 questions 1 marks each (20)

1) Given angle is an example of

(a) an acute angle

(b) an obtuse angle
(c) a reflex angle
(d) a complete angle

Ans. (b) Given angle is an obtuse angle.

2) If the coordinates of two points are A(7,-3) and B(7, -5), then (ordinate of A) - (ordinate of B) is
(a) 2 (b) -2 (c) 8 (d) -8

Ans. (a) 2
Given, point is A(7,-3) i.e. ordinate of A = -3 and point B(7, -5) i.e. ordinate of B = -5
∴ Ordinate of A - Ordinate of B = - 3 - (-5)
= -3 + 5 = 2

3) In the given figure, if OA = 10 cm, AB = 12 cm and OD ⊥ AB, find CD.

(a) 2 cm (b) 3 cm (c) 4 cm (d) 6 cm

Ans. (a) 2 cm
Since, OD ⊥ AB,
∴ AC = BC = 6 cm
[ ∵ perpendicular drawn from the centre of circle bisect the chords]
and ∠ OCA = 90°
and OA = 10 cm
Thus, OA2 = AC2 + OC2 [by Pythagoras theorem]
⇒ 102 = 62 + OC2
⇒ OC2 = 100 - 36 = 64
⇒ OC = 8 cm
Since, OD = OA [ ∵ OD is the radius of circle]
∴ OD = 10 cm
Thus, CD = OD - OC = 10 cm - 8 cm = 2 cm

4) In the given figure, if ∠ABC = 20, then ∠AOC is equal to

(a) 20° (b) 40° (c) 60° (d) 10°

Ans. (b) 40°
Given, ∠ ABC = 20°
We know that angle subtended at the centre by an arc is twice the angle subtended by it at the remaining part
of circle.
∴ ∠AOC = 2∠ ABC = 2 x 20° = 40°
5) If angles with measures x and y form a complementary pair, then which of the following measures of angles
will form a supplementary pair?
(a) (x + 47°),(y + 43°)
(b) (x - 23°), (y + 23°)
(c) (x - 43°), (y - 47°)
(d) No such pair is possible

Ans. (a) Since, x and y forms a complementary pair.

∴ x + y = 90°
Now, x + 47° + y + 43° = x + y + 47°+ 43°
= x + y + 90°
= 90° + 90° = 180°
∴ (x + 47°) and (y + 43°) forms a supplementary pair.
6) Three angles of a parallelogram are 85°, 95° and 85°.The fourth angle is
(a) 90° (b) 95° (c) 105° (d) 120°

Ans. (b) 95°

The opposite angles of the given parallelogram are equal. Hence, the fourth angle is 95°.

7) In figure, if AOB is a diameter of the circle and AC = BC, then ∠CAB is equal to

(a) 30° (b) 60° (c) 90° (d) 45°

Ans. (d) 45°

We know that diameter subtends a right angle to the circle.
∠ BCA = 90° ...(i)
Given, AC = BC
⇒ ∠ ABC = ∠CAB ...(ii)
[angles opposite to equal sides are equal]

In∆ ABC,
∠ CAB + ∠ ABC + ∠ BCA = 180°
|by angle sum property of a triangle]
⇒ ∠ CAB + ∠CAB + 90° = 180°
[from Eqs. (i) and (ii)]
⇒ 2 ∠CAB = 180° - 90°
90 0
⇒ ∠ CAB = 2
∴ ∠ CAB = 45°

(ii) only two solutions
(iii) infinitely many solutions

Ans. (iii) We know that a linear equation in two variables has infinitely many solutions. Here, given equation is a
linear equation in two variables x and y, so it has infinitely many solutions.

10) In ∆ ABC, AB = 5 cm, BC = 8 cm and CA = 7cm. If D and E are respectively the mid-point of AB and BC then the
length of DE is
(a) 4.5 cm (b) 3.5 cm (c) 5.5 cm (d) 6.5 cm

Ans. (b) 3.5 cm

In ∆ ABC, we have AB = 5 cm, BC = 8 cm and CA = 7 cm.
Since, D and E are the mid-points of AB and BC, respectively.

∴ By mid-point theorem,
1 7
DE || AC and DE = 2 AC = 2
= 3.5 cm

12) In the given figure, OA and OB are respectively perpendiculars to chords CD and EF of a circle whose centre is
O. If OA = OB, then

(a) CE = DF (b) CE > DF (c) CE < DF (d) None of these

Ans. (a) CE = DF
We have, OA ⊥ CD and OB ⊥ EF
OA = OB
 ⇒ Chords CD and EF are equidistant from O.
⇒ CD = EF
[ ∵ chords equidistant from the centre ofa circle are equal in length]
arc CD = arc EF
Subtract arc ED or ED from both sides
^ ^ ^ ^
CD - ED = EF - ED
^ ^
⇒ CE = DF
⇒ CE = DF

13) From the figure given below, find the coordinates of point M.

(a) (-4,- 3) (b) (4,- 3) (c) (-4, 3) (d) (4, 3)

Ans. (b) (4,- 3)

In the given figure, x-coordinate is 4 units and y-coordinate is 3 units along the negative direction of Y-axis.
Thus, the coordinates of point M is (4, -3).

14) In the figure, ABC is an isosceles triangle in which AB = AC and PQ is parallel to BC. If ∠ A = 40°, find ∠ PQB.

(a) 100° (b) 120° (c) 110° (d) 90°

Ans. (c) ∠ C = ∠B
[ ∴ AB = AC, angles opposite to equal sides are equal]
∴ ∠B = ∠C = 70°
PQ || BC
∠ PQB + ∠ CBQ = 180° [co-interior angles]
∠ PQB + 70° = 180°
∠PQB =110°

SECTION B

This consists of 5 questions of 2 marks each. (10)

21) Check which of the following are solution of the equation x - 2y = 4 and which are not?
(√2, 4√2)

Ans. By Substituting, x = √2 and y = 4√2 in the given Equation (1)

x - 2y = 4
√ 2 - 8√ 2 = 4
-7√2 ≠ 4
L.H .S ≠ R.H .S
Therefore, (√2, 4√2) is not a solution to this equation.

22) In which angle, the measure is more than 180° but less than 360°?

Ans. In a reflex angle, the measure is more than 180° but less than 360°.

23) Classify the following numbers as rational or Irrational.

0.101001000100001....

Ans. ​0.101001000100001...., has non-terminating non-recurring decimal expansion.

Hence, it is an irrational number.

24) Use the factor Theorem to determine, whether g(x) is a factor of p(x) in each of the following cases :
p(x) = 2x3 + x2 - 2x - 1, g(x) = x + 1

Ans. Given, p(x) = 2x3 + x2 - 2x - 1 and g(x) = x + 1

Zero of g(x) is x = -1. [∵ x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = -1]
On putting x = -1 in p(x), we get
p(-1) = 2 x (-1)3 + (-1)2 - 2 x (-1) - 1
= -2 + 1 + 2 - 1 = 0
Hence, g(x) is the factor of p(x).

OR

Simplify the following. ( √5 - √3 ) 2

Ans.
( √5 - √3 ) 2 = ?
(a - b)2 = a2 - 2ab + b2
So, (√5 - √3 ) 2
= (√5 ) - 2 (√5 )(√3 ) + (√3 )
2 2

= 5 - 2√15 + 3
= 8 - 2√15

So, (√5 - √3 )2 = 8 - 2√15

25) If a + b + c = 9 and ab + bc + ca = 40, then find the value of a2 + b2 + c2 .

Ans. Given that a + b + c = 9

On squaring both sides, we get
(a + b + c)2 = (9)2
⇒ a2 + b2 + c2 + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca = 81
 ⇒ a2 + b2 + c2 + 2(ab + bc + ca) = 81
On putting ab + bc + ca = 40, we get
a2 + b2 + c2 + 2 x 40 = 81
∴ a2 + b2 + c2 = 81 - 80 = 1

SECTION C

This consists of 6 questions of 3 marks each.

26) Expand each of the following using suitable identities.

(-2x + 5y - 3z)2

Ans. (-2x + 5y - 3z)²

Using the identity: (a + b + c)² = a² + b² + c² + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca
Taking a = -2x, b = 5y, c = -3z
(-2x + 5y - 3z)² = (-2x)² + (5y)² + (-3z)² + 2(-2x)(5y) + 2(5y)(-3z) + 2(-3z)(-2x)
= 4x² + 25y² + 9z² - 20xy - 30yz + 12zx

27) 18
Check whether 8√3, , √3 + 22, π - 3 are irrational numbers or not.
√3

Ans. We know that 8 is rational and √3 is irrational, so 8√3 is irrational as multiplication of rational by irrational is
irrational.
18
Now, again 18 is rational, √3 is irrational, so is irrational as division of rational and irrational is irrational.
√3
For √3 + 22, 22 is rational, √3 is irrational, so 22 + √3 is also irrational as addition of rational and irrational is
irrational.
π is irrational, 3 is rational, π - 3 is irrational as subtraction and irrational is irrational.

28) A city has two main roads which cross each other at the centre of the city. These two roads are along the
North-South direction and East-West direction. All the other streets of the city run parallel to these roads and
are 200 m apart. There are 5 streets in each direction. Using 1 cm = 200 m, draw a model of the city on your
notebook. Represent the roads/streets by single lines. There are many cross-streets in your model. A particular
cross-street is made by two streets, one running in the North-South direction and another in the East-West
direction. Each cross-street is referred to in the following manner:
If the 2nd street running in the North-South direction and 5th in the East-West direction meet at some crossing,
then we will call this cross-street (2, 5). Using this convention, find
(i) how many cross-streets can be referred to as (4,3)?
(ii) how many cross-streets can be referred to as (3, 4)?

Ans. Let EW and NS be two main roads such that the road EW is along the East-West direction and road NS is along
the North-South direction. Then, the angle between the two roads is 90°, i.e. the roads EW and NS are
perpendicular to each other.
Let us consider EW along X-axis and NS along Y-axis and let the centre of city is O.
Here, the distance between two consecutive streets in same direction is 200 m and all the streets are parallel
to the main roads.

The street plan is shown in the above figure:

 (i) Because of the two reference lines that we have used for locating them, there is only one cross-street which
can be referred to as (4, 3).
(ii) Similarly, there is only one cross-street which can be referred to as (3, 4).

Prove that AM = BN.

Ans. Given that, ABCD is a parallelogram.

AM and BN are respectively the perpendiculars from A and B to DC and CD produced.
We know that the perpendicular distance between two parallel lines is equal.
It is given that ABCD is a parallelogram where AM and BN are respectively the perpendiculars from A and B to
DC and CD produced.
Let us draw the diagram as per the instruction in the question

Here AM and BN are the two perpendiculars between the two parallel lines AB and CD.
Hence, the length of AM and BN will be equal.
∴ AM = BN
Henced proved.

29) If BM and CN are the perpendiculars drawn on the sides AC and AB of the ∆ ABC, then prove that the points B,
C, M and N are concyclic.

Ans. Draw a circle passing through the points B, C, M and N.

∠ BMC = ∠ BNC = 90°
Since, if a line segment joining two points subtends equal angles at two other point lying on the same side
of the line containing the line segment, then four points lie on a circle are concylic.

Hence, B, C, M and N are concylic.

30) In the given figure AB and CD are perpendiculars on BD. Also, AB = CD and AF = CE. Prove that BE = FD.
Ans. Given In △ ABF and △ CDE, AB ⊥ BD and CD ⊥ BD in which AB = CD and AF = CE.
To prove BE = FD
Proof In △ ABF and △ CDE,
AB = CD [given]
AF = CE [given]
and ∠ ABF = ∠CDE = 90°
∴ △ ABF ≅ △ CDE [by RHS congruence rule]
⇒ BF = ED [by CPCT]
⇒ BF - EF = ED - EF [subtract EF from both sides]
⇒ BE = FD
Hence proved.

31) A chord of a circle is equal to the radius of the circle. Find the angle subtended by the chord at a point on the
minor arc and also at a point on the major arc.

Ans.

Let BC be a chord, which is equal to the radius.

Join OB and OC.
Given, BC = OB = OC [same radii]
So, ∆ OBC is an equilateral triangle.
∠
∴ BOC = 60°
Then, ∠BAC = ∠BOC 1
2
1
= 2
x 600 = 300
[since, the angle subtended by an arc at the centre is double the angle subtended by it at any point on the
remaining part of the circle]
Here, ABMC is a cyclic quadrilateral.
∴ ∠ BAC + ∠ BMC = 180°
[ ∵ in a cyclic quadrilateral, the sum of any pair of opposite angles is 1800]
⇒ ∠ BMC =180° - 30°= 150°

In the given figure, lines AB and CD intersect at O. If ∠ AOC+ ∠BOE = 70° and ∠ BOD= 40°, then find ∠BOE and
reflex ∠ COE.

Ans. Given, ∠ AOC + ∠ BOE = 70° ...(i)

and ∠ BOD = 40° ...(ii)
Also, lines AB and CD intersect each other at O.
So, ∠ AOC = ∠BOD [vertically opposite angles]
∴ ∠ AOC = 40° [from Eq. (ii)]
Then, from Eq. (i)
40° + ∠BOE = 70°
⇒ ∠ BOE = 70° - 40°
∴ ∠BOE = 30°
Now, OB is a ray on CD.
So, ∠ BOD + ∠ BOC = 180° [by linear pair axiom] ..(iii)
Also, ∠ COE and ∠ BOE are adjacent angles.
So, ∠ BOC = ∠ COE + ∠BOE
On putting the value of ∠ BOC in Eq. (iii), we get
∠ BOD + ∠COE + ∠ BOE = 180°
⇒ 40° + ∠ COE + 30° = 180°
⇒ ∠COE + 70° = 180°
⇒ ∠ COE = 180° - 70° = 110°
Also, ∠ COE + reflex ∠COE = 360° [since, sum of angles at a point is 360°]
⇒ 110° + reflex ∠COE = 360°
∴ Reflex ∠ COE = 360° - 110° = 250°
33) Locate √13 and 1 + √13 on the number line.

Ans. (i) Here, 13 = 9 + 4 = 32 + 22 [Sum of square of two natural numbers]

So, we take a = 3 and b = 2
Draw OA = 3 units on number line then draw AB = 2 units, such that AB ⊥
OA.
Join OB,

By Pythagoras theorem, in △ OAB

OB = √OA2 + AB2 = √32 + 22 = √9 + 4 = √13
Taking O as centre and radius equal to OB, draw an arc, which cuts the
number line at C, Hence, OC represents √13.
 (ii) To locate 1 + √13 on the number line, firstly we mark a 1 unit distance from
origin, On the number line, say A and further apply the same procedure as use
in part (i)

34) The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.

Ans. Given ABCD is a parallelogram. Its diagonals AC and BD intersect each other at O.

To prove OA = OC
and OB = OD
Proof In △ AOD and △ COB,
∠ADO = ∠CBO [ ∵ BC || AD and BD is transversal, so alternate angles are equal]
∠DAO = ∠ BCO [ ∵ BC || AD and AC is transversal, so alternate angles are equal]
and AD = BC [opposite sides of parallelogram ABCD are equal]
∴ △ AOD ≅△ COB [by ASA congruence rule]
Then, OA = OC
and OB = OD [by CPCT]
Hence, the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.

A circular park of radius 20 m is situated in a colony. Three boys Ankur, Syed and David are sitting at
equal distance on its boundary each having a toy telephone in his hand to talk each other. Find the length of
the string of each phone.

Ans. Let Ankur, Syed and David be sitting on the points P,Q and R, respectively on the boundary of circular park.
Clearly, PQ = QR = PR, as they sitting at equal distance.
Thus, ∆ PQR is an equilateral triangle.

Let PQ = QR = PR = x m
Now, draw altitudes PC, QD and RN from vertices to the sides of a triangle and these altitudes intersect at the
centre of circle M.
[ ∵ altitudes of equilateral triangle passes through the circumcentre of the equilateral triangle.]
As ∆ PQR is an equilateral triangle, therefore these altitudes bisect their sides.
In right angled ∆ PCQ, PQ2 = PC2 + QC2 [by Pythagoras theorem]

⇒ x2 = PC2 + ( ) [∵

∴ PC = 2
[taking positive square root]

Now, MC = PC - PM = 2

[ ∵ PM = radius = 20 m]
In right angled ∆ QCM, QM2 = QC2 + MC2 [by Pythagoras theorem]

[ ∵ QM = radius = 20 m]
x2 3x 2
⇒ 400 = 4
+ 4
- 20√3x + 400
⇒ x2 - 20√3x = 0 ⇒ x(x - 20√3) = 0
⇒ x = 0 or x - 20√3 = 0 ⇒ x = 0 or x = 20√3
But x = 0 is not possible, because length of side of an equilateral triangle cannot be zero.
∴ x = 20√3 m
Thus, PQ = QR = PR = 20√3
Hence, the length of the string of each phone is 20√3 m.

35) Find any four solutions of the equation 4x + 3y = 12.

Ans. Given equation is 4x + 3y = 12 ...(i)

On putting x = 0 in Eq. (i), we get
4(0) + 3y =12
⇒ 3y = 12
12
⇒ y= 3
=4
So, (0, 4) is a solution of given equation.
On putting y = 0 in Eq. (i), we get
4x + 3(0) = 12
⇒ 4x = 12
12
⇒ x= 4
=3

This section consist of 3 Case Study Based Question of 4 marks each

36) Green cleaning refers to cleaning me thods and products that are environmentally friendly ingredients
and procedures to preserve human health and environmental quality. To preserve the environment, Ramesh
 made a slide in the park of this society. One the side walls of the slide, there was a message 'TAKE SHORT
WALK IN PARK DOWN A HAPPY TRAIL' (see figure). If the sides of the wall are 15 m, 11m and 6m, then answer
the questions by looking at the figure.
[√2 = 1.41]

(i) Find the semi-perimeter of triangle.

(a) 14 m (b) 16 m (c) 18 m (d) 20 m
(ii) Write the type of triangle given in question.
(a) Equilateral (b) Scalene (c) Isosceles (d) Right angled triangle
2
(iii) Find the area (in m ) of the wall.
(a) 10√2 (b) 20√2 (c) 30√2 (d) 40√2
Or Find the cost of painting the side wall, if the price is Rs.8 per m2 .
(a) Rs. 220 (b) Rs. 221 (c) Rs. 226 (d) Rs. 228

Ans. (i) (b) 16 m

Given that a = 15 m, b = 11 m and c = 6 m
a+b+c 15 + 11 + 6
∴ Semi-perimeter (s) = 2
=
2
32
= 2
= 16 m
(ii) (b) Scalene
Since, all three sides of triangle are unequal, so given triangle is a scalene triangle.
(iii) (b) 20√2
∵ s = 16 m
Now, area of the wall
= √16 (16 - 15) (16 - 11) (16 - 6)
= √16 × 1 × 5 × 10
= √4 × 4 × 1 × 5 × 5 × 2
= 4 x 5√2 = 20√2 m2
Or (c) ∵ Area of the wall = 20√2 m2
∴ Cost of painting = 20√2 x 8 = 160√2
= 160 ×1.41 = Rs.225.6
= Rs.226 (approx.)

37) To raise the fund for cancer patients, a charity race was organised on rectangular school ground ABCD.
Lines have been drawn with chalk powder at a distance of 1 m each. 100 flower pots have been placed at a
distance of 1 m from each other along AD.
1 1
Niharika runs 4
of the distance AD on the second line and posts a green flag. Preeti runs 5
of the distance AD
on the 8th line and posts a red flag as shown in given figure.
 Then, give the answer of following questions.
(i) Find the coordinates of green flag.
(ii) Find the coordinates of red flag.
(iii) In which quadrant is the green flag?
(iv) In which quadrant is the red flag?

Ans. (i) ) Given, in a rectangular field ABCD, vertical lines are drawn with chalk powder at a distance of 1 m each.
Also, placed 100 flower pots along AD at a distance of 1 m each, i.e. total length of AD is 100 m.
Now, we consider AB as X-axis and AD as Y-axis.
1
Since, Niharika runs 4
of the distance AD on second line and posts a green flag.

∴ Position of green flag = (2, 1

4 )
× 100 = (2,25).

1
(ii) Since, Preeti run 5
of the distance AD on the 8th line and posts a red flag.

∴ Position of red flag = (8, 1

5 )
× 100 = (8,20).

(iii) For point (2, 25), x-coordinate is positive and y-coordinate is also positive, so it lies in I quadrant.
(iv) For point (8, 20), x-coordinate and y-coordinate both are positive. So, it lies in Ist quadrant.

38) To judge the preparation of students of Class IX on topic 'Number System', Mathematics teachers write two
numbers on blackboard (as shown in figure)

He asks some questions about the two members, which are following, then answer the questions.

(i) 2
Write the decimal form of 11
.
(ii) p
Write the q form of 0.38
(iii) 2
Is 11
a terminating, non-terminating repeating, non-terminating non-
repeating.
Or p m
If q form 0.38 is n
, then find the value of m + n.

Ans. (i) 2
We have, 11
.
 ∴ 2 = 0.18
(ii) Let x = 0.38 ⇒ x = 0.3888... ...(i)
10x = 3.888....
100x = 38.888.... ...(ii)
On subtracting Eq. (ii) from Eq. (i), we get
⇒ (100x - 10x) = (38.888...) - (3.888...)
⇒ 90x = 35
∴ x=
35
90
=
7
18
(iii)
∵ 2
11
= 0.18

∴ 2
11
has non-terminating repeating decimal expansion.
Or
∵ m
n
=
7
18
∴ m + n = 25
