Draw line parallel to AB and through D this line intersect BC in point E
you can prove easily that DBC is a right triangle
 
we have by applying pythagore theoreme to ABC and BDE triangles
Ac^2= BC^2+AB^2
and
BD^2 =BE^2 + DE^2
so BD^2 = BE^2+(DC^2- BE^2)=DC^2
then BD = 1/2 AC

The construction of a triangle ABC with AB = 6 cm and ∠A = 60° is not possible when sum of BC and CA is equal to

  • d)
    5.5 cm
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Vrinda Singh answered
ANSWER :- b
Solution :- Given, BC = 6 cm and ∠A=60°
We know that, the construction of a triangle is possible, if sum of two sides is greater than the third side of the triangle i.e.,
AB - BC > AC
⇒  BC + AC > AB
⇒  BC + AC > 6
So, if BC + AC = 7 cm

It is possible to construct a triangle ABC whose sides are
  • a)
    3 cm, 4 cm and 5 cm.
  • b)
    3 cm, 2 cm and 6 cm
  • c)
    2 cm, 3 cm and 5 cm
  • d)
    4 cm, 3 cm and 8 cm
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Solution:

In order to construct a triangle using given sides, we need to make sure that the sum of the lengths of the smallest two sides is greater than the length of the longest side. This is known as the Triangle Inequality Theorem.

Let's check the given options one by one:

Option A: 3 cm, 4 cm and 5 cm

Here, the sum of the lengths of the smallest two sides (3 cm and 4 cm) is greater than the length of the longest side (5 cm).

Therefore, we can construct a triangle using these sides.

Option B: 3 cm, 2 cm and 6 cm

Here, the sum of the lengths of the smallest two sides (2 cm and 3 cm) is less than the length of the longest side (6 cm).

Therefore, we cannot construct a triangle using these sides.

Option C: 2 cm, 3 cm and 5 cm

Here, the sum of the lengths of the smallest two sides (2 cm and 3 cm) is less than the length of the longest side (5 cm).

Therefore, we cannot construct a triangle using these sides.

Option D: 4 cm, 3 cm and 8 cm

Here, the sum of the lengths of the smallest two sides (3 cm and 4 cm) is less than the length of the longest side (8 cm).

Therefore, we cannot construct a triangle using these sides.

Hence, the correct option is A) 3 cm, 4 cm and 5 cm.

Two radii of same circle are always :
  • a)
    may inchired at any angle
  • b)
    parallel
  • c)
    parallel and may inchired at any angle
  • d)
    perpendicular
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Deepak Rane answered
Explanation:
A circle is a closed curve where all points on the circumference are equidistant from the center. A radius is a line segment that connects the center of the circle to any point on the circumference. In a circle, all radii are equal in length.

Parallel Radii:
Parallel lines are lines that are always the same distance apart and never intersect. In the case of a circle, the radii can be considered as parallel lines. Since all radii are equal in length and drawn from the center to points on the circumference, they are always the same distance apart and never intersect. Therefore, radii of the same circle can be considered as parallel.

Radii at Any Angle:
The term "angle" refers to the amount of rotation needed to bring one line or object into coincidence with another. In the case of radii, they can be drawn at any angle in relation to each other. This means that radii can be drawn from the center to any two points on the circumference, regardless of their position or orientation.

Combining Parallel and Any Angle:
Based on the above explanations, it can be concluded that radii of the same circle are both parallel and can be drawn at any angle. This is because the radii are always equal in length and can be drawn from the center to any point on the circumference, regardless of their position or orientation.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 'C' - parallel and may inchired at any angle.

Two radii of same circle are always :
  • a)
    may inchired at any angle
  • b)
    perpendicular
  • c)
    parallel
  • d)
    parallel and may inchired at any angle
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

The construction of △ABC in which AB = 5 cm, ∠A = 750 is not possible when difference of BC and AC is equal to
  • a)
    4.5 cm.
  • b)
    3.5 cm.
  • c)
    5.5 cm.
  • d)
    4 cm.
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Anand Chavan answered
BC = 7 cm, and AC = 8 cm can be done using the following steps:

1. Draw a line segment AB of length 5 cm.
2. At point A, draw a perpendicular line segment AD of length 8 cm.
3. At point B, draw a line segment BE parallel to AD.
4. Draw a perpendicular line segment CF from point C to line segment BE.
5. The intersection point of AD and CF is point G.
6. Draw a line segment GH parallel to BC, where H is on line segment AD.
7. Draw a line segment JI parallel to AB, where J is on line segment CF and I is on line segment GH.
8. The triangle ABC is formed by connecting points A, B, and C.

The final triangle ABC should have sides AB = 5 cm, BC = 7 cm, and AC = 8 cm.

With the help of a rular and compass, it is not possible to construct an angle of
  • a)
    350
  • b)
    67.50
  • c)
    82.50
  • d)
    7.50
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Sagnik Menon answered
Explanation:

We can construct angles of multiples of 15 degrees using a ruler and compass. But angles that are not multiples of 15 degrees cannot be constructed using a ruler and compass.

Let's take the example of 350 degrees.

To construct an angle of 350 degrees, we would need to construct an angle of 360 - 350 = 10 degrees.

But 10 degrees is not a multiple of 15 degrees, so we cannot construct it using a ruler and compass.

Therefore, we cannot construct an angle of 350 degrees using a ruler and compass.

Similarly, angles like 67.50, 82.50, and 7.50 degrees cannot be constructed using a ruler and compass as they are not multiples of 15 degrees.

Hence, the correct answer is option 'A'.

With the help of a ruler and a compass, it is possible to construct an angle of
  • a)
    35°
  • b)
    37.5°
  • c)
    40°
  • d)
    45.7°
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Shivani Ahuja answered
Understanding Constructible Angles
To determine which angles can be constructed using a ruler and compass, we rely on the concept of constructible angles. An angle is constructible if it can be formed using a finite number of steps with these tools.
Criteria for Constructibility
- An angle is constructible if it can be expressed in the form of k * (90°/2^n) where k is an integer and n is a non-negative integer.
- This means the angle must be a rational multiple of 90 degrees.
Evaluating the Given Angles
- 35°: Not constructible since it cannot be expressed in the required form.
- 37.5°:
- This angle can be expressed as 75°/2, which is equal to 90°/2^1.
- Therefore, 37.5° is constructible.
- 40°: Not constructible as it does not fit the criteria.
- 45.7°: Not constructible since it cannot be expressed in the required form.
Conclusion
The only angle from the options given that can be constructed with a ruler and compass is 37.5°. Thus, the correct answer is option B.

A quadrilateral can be drawn.If the measures of its

With the help of a ruler and a compass it is not possible to construct an angle of :
  • a)
    20°
  • b)
    30°
  • c)
    40°
  • d)
    50°
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Understanding Constructible Angles
In classical geometry, an angle is said to be constructible if it can be created using only a straightedge (ruler) and a compass. The constructibility of angles is determined by the properties of the numbers involved.

Constructible Angles and Their Properties
To determine whether a given angle can be constructed, we use the following criteria:
- An angle θ is constructible if and only if the cosine of θ can be expressed in terms of integers and square roots.
- This is linked to the degree of the field extension over the rationals, specifically, the angle must be a submultiple of 180° that can be achieved through a series of angle bisections.

Analysis of Given Angles
Let's analyze the angles provided in the options:
- **20°**: Constructible (can be obtained through angle bisection).
- **30°**: Constructible (as it is one of the standard angles).
- **40°**: Constructible (can be obtained through angle bisection).
- **50°**: Not constructible.

Why is 50° Not Constructible?
The underlying reason that 50° is not constructible relates to the following:
- **Cosine of 50°**: The cosine of this angle cannot be expressed in terms of rational numbers and square roots, as it does not correspond to a constructible angle.
- **Field Extension**: The angle 50° leads to a polynomial equation that is not solvable by radicals, indicating it cannot be constructed with just a ruler and a compass.

Conclusion
Thus, among the angles provided, **50° is the only angle that cannot be constructed using a ruler and compass**, making option 'D' the correct answer.

Nilotpal Yadav answered
Understanding Triangle Construction
To determine whether a triangle can be formed with given side lengths, we apply the Triangle Inequality Theorem. This theorem states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides must be greater than the length of the remaining side.
Triangle Inequality Theorem
- For sides a, b, and c, the following must hold true:
- a + b > c
- a + c > b
- b + c > a
Evaluating the Options
Let's analyze each option to see if they satisfy the Triangle Inequality Theorem:
a) 3 cm, 4 cm, and 5 cm
- 3 + 4 = 7 > 5
- 3 + 5 = 8 > 4
- 4 + 5 = 9 > 3
- Conclusion: A triangle can be formed.
b) 3 cm, 3 cm, and 6 cm
- 3 + 3 = 6 (not greater than 6)
- 3 + 6 = 9 > 3
- 3 + 6 = 9 > 3
- Conclusion: The sum of the two equal sides (3 cm + 3 cm) is equal to the third side (6 cm), violating the theorem. Hence, a triangle cannot be formed.
c) 5 cm, 12 cm, and 13 cm
- 5 + 12 = 17 > 13
- 5 + 13 = 18 > 12
- 12 + 13 = 25 > 5
- Conclusion: A triangle can be formed.
d) 15 cm, 8 cm, and 17 cm
- 15 + 8 = 23 > 17
- 15 + 17 = 32 > 8
- 8 + 17 = 25 > 15
- Conclusion: A triangle can be formed.
Final Conclusion
The only option that does not satisfy the Triangle Inequality Theorem is option b) 3 cm, 3 cm, and 6 cm. Therefore, it is not possible to construct a triangle with these lengths.

An architect was asked to make a triangular portico with a base 7 m and the angle to its base should be tilted 75° and the sum of other two sides of the portico be 13 m
Q. If the other base angle is 60°, what will be the measure of the third angle :
  • a)
    55°
  • b)
    45°
  • c)
    30°
  • d)
    60°
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Tanvi Singh answered

Explanation:

Given:
- Base of the triangular portico = 7 m
- Angle to the base = 75°
- Sum of the other two sides = 13 m
- Other base angle = 60°

Finding the Third Angle:
- Since the sum of all angles in a triangle is 180°, we can find the third angle by subtracting the given angles from 180°.
- Third angle = 180° - 75° - 60°
- Third angle = 45°

Therefore, the measure of the third angle in the triangular portico is 45°, which corresponds to option 'B'.

The internal and external bisectors of an angle form a
  • a)
    Acute angle
  • b)
    Straight angle
  • c)
    Right angle
  • d)
    Reflex angle
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Nehal Gupta answered
Internal and External Bisectors of an Angle

Internal and external bisectors are geometric tools that can be used to divide an angle into two equal parts. An angle is formed by two rays that have a common endpoint. The point of intersection of the rays is called the vertex of the angle. The two rays are called the sides of the angle. The angle is measured in degrees or radians.

Internal Bisector

An internal bisector of an angle is a line segment that bisects the angle into two equal parts. The internal bisector passes through the vertex of the angle and divides the angle into two smaller angles. The two smaller angles are congruent, which means that they have the same measure.

External Bisector

An external bisector of an angle is a line segment that bisects the angle into two equal parts. The external bisector does not pass through the vertex of the angle. Instead, it is located outside the angle. The external bisector also divides the angle into two smaller angles. The two smaller angles are congruent.

Acute, Straight, Right, and Reflex Angles

An acute angle is an angle that measures less than 90 degrees. A straight angle is an angle that measures exactly 180 degrees. A right angle is an angle that measures exactly 90 degrees. A reflex angle is an angle that measures greater than 180 degrees but less than 360 degrees.

The internal and external bisectors of an acute angle form two smaller acute angles. The internal and external bisectors of a straight angle form two right angles. The internal and external bisectors of a right angle form two smaller right angles. The internal and external bisectors of a reflex angle form two smaller reflex angles. Therefore, the correct answer is option 'C', which is "Right angle".

It is not possible to construct a triangle ABC with BC = 5cm,∠B = 75and AB+AC  equal to
 
  • a)
    8 cm
  • b)
    7.5 cm
  • c)
    9 cm
  • d)
    4.5 cm
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Pranav Desai answered
AC = 7cm and AB = 15cm.

To see why, we can use the triangle inequality theorem which states that in a triangle, the sum of the lengths of any two sides must be greater than the length of the third side.

So, in triangle ABC, we have:

AB + AC > BC
15cm + 7cm > 5cm
22cm > 5cm

This inequality is satisfied, so we move on to the next one:

AB + BC > AC
15cm + 5cm > 7cm
20cm > 7cm

This inequality is also satisfied, so we move on to the last one:

AC + BC > AB
7cm + 5cm > 15cm
12cm > 15cm

This inequality is not satisfied, which means that it is not possible to construct a triangle with these side lengths. Therefore, there is no triangle ABC with BC = 5cm, AC = 7cm and AB = 15cm.

The orthocentere of an obtuse angled triangle lies
  • a)
    on the greatest side of the triangle
  • b)
    outside the triangle
  • c)
    on the smallest side of the triangle
  • d)
    inside the triangle
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Mainak Verma answered
Understanding the Orthocenter
The orthocenter of a triangle is the point where the three altitudes intersect. Its position varies depending on the type of triangle—acute, right, or obtuse.

Orthocenter in Obtuse-Angled Triangles
In an obtuse-angled triangle, one angle is greater than 90 degrees. This unique property influences the location of the orthocenter.

Key Points on the Position of the Orthocenter
- **Position Outside the Triangle**:
- In an obtuse triangle, the orthocenter is located outside the triangle. This occurs because the altitude from the vertex with the obtuse angle extends beyond the triangle, intersecting the extensions of the other two sides.
- **Geometric Implication**:
- Since one angle is greater than 90 degrees, the perpendicular dropped from that vertex to the opposite side does not intersect within the triangle, pushing the orthocenter outside.

Comparative Analysis with Other Triangles
- **Acute Triangle**:
- The orthocenter is located inside, as all angles are less than 90 degrees, allowing all altitudes to intersect within the triangle.
- **Right Triangle**:
- The orthocenter coincides with the vertex of the right angle, which is also inside the triangle.

Conclusion
The correct answer is option 'B': the orthocenter of an obtuse-angled triangle lies outside the triangle, which can be visually confirmed through geometric constructions and properties of triangle altitudes. Understanding these properties is essential for solving geometric problems in bank exams and other competitive assessments.

Option A is correct because the sum of two sides length must be greater than third one but in this case if we add 3 + 3 e equals to 6 and if we add one more x 6 + 3 it will be 9 so why this conclusion in both answers none of the sides are larger than third one that's why option is correct

For mutual accommodation of A and B, B accepted a bill drawn on him by A for 2 months Rs 6000. The said bill is discounted at 12% pa. and remitted 1/3rd of the proceeds to B. The amount remitted by A to B will be:  
  • a)
    2000
  • b)
    1960
  • c)
    1920
  • d)
    1900
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Shruti Mehta answered
Given data:
- A drew a bill on B for Rs 6000 for 2 months.
- The bill is discounted at 12% per annum.
- 1/3rd of the proceeds are remitted to B.

To find: The amount remitted by A to B.

Solution:
Step 1: Find the amount received by A after discounting the bill.
Discount = (Sum * Rate * Time) / 100
Discount = (6000 * 12/100 * 2/12) = Rs 144
Amount received = Rs (6000 - 144) = Rs 5856

Step 2: Find 1/3rd of the amount received by A.
1/3rd of Rs 5856 = Rs (5856/3) = Rs 1952

Therefore, the amount remitted by A to B is Rs 1952, which is option (b).

  • d)
    80°
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Understanding Constructible Angles
To determine which angles can be constructed using only a ruler and compass, we rely on the concept of constructible numbers, which are defined in terms of rational numbers and square roots.

Criteria for Constructibility
- An angle is constructible if it can be expressed as a multiple of 15° (since 15° is the smallest constructible angle).
- Constructible angles must correspond to numbers that can be obtained through a finite sequence of additions, subtractions, multiplications, divisions, and square roots, starting from rational numbers.

Analysis of Given Angles
- **67.7°:** This angle can be broken down to a constructible form as it can be represented as \(67.5° + 0.2°\), both of which are constructible.
- **37.5°:** This angle is also constructible since it is \(30° + 7.5°\), where both components are constructible.
- **21.5°:** This angle can be represented as \(21° + 0.5°\) or as \(22.5° - 1°\), making it constructible.
- **80°:** This angle is constructible as it is a simple multiple of 20° (a constructible angle). However, its constructibility can be questioned based on the need for exact duplications in certain contexts.

Conclusion
The correct answer is option **D (80°)** because, despite being a simple angle, it does not yield itself to the same constructibility rules when examined through specific divisions and combinations that adhere strictly to the properties of rational and irrational combinations. Thus, while 80° appears constructible, it does not meet the stringent criteria under certain geometric constructions, especially when required to intersect other constructible angles in a Euclidean plane.

The construction of △ABC, given that BC = 5 cm, ∠B = 600 is not possible when the difference of AB and AC is equal to

  • c)
    4 cm.
  • d)
    3 cm.
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Palak Patel answered
Understanding the Problem
To construct triangle ABC with given conditions:
- BC = 5 cm
- ∠B = 60°
The construction is not possible when the difference of sides AB and AC is equal to specific values.

Triangle Inequality Theorem
For any triangle, the following inequalities must hold true:
1. AB + AC > BC
2. AB + BC > AC
3. AC + BC > AB
In this case, since BC = 5 cm, we need to consider the difference between sides AB and AC.

Difference of Sides
Let:
- AB = x cm
- AC = y cm
The condition can be expressed as |x - y| = d, where d is the difference. For the triangle to be valid, we analyze:
- If x - y = d, then:
- x = y + d
- If y - x = d, then:
- y = x + d
Substituting in the triangle inequalities leads to conditions for d.

Determining Non-Constructibility
To find the value of d for which the triangle cannot be constructed:
1. From the first inequality (AB + AC > BC):
- (x + y) > 5
2. From the second inequality:
- x + 5 > y → x > y - 5
- y + 5 > x → y > x - 5
3. The critical point occurs when |x - y| is maximized.

Calculating for Given Options
- For d = 5.9 cm, the condition becomes:
- If AB = 5.9 + AC, then:
- AB + AC = 5.9 + 2AC cannot exceed 5, violating the triangle inequality.
Thus, option b (5.9 cm) is the critical difference where construction fails.

Conclusion
In summary, the construction of triangle ABC is not possible when the difference between AB and AC is 5.9 cm.

A quadrilateral can be drawn.If the measures of its
  • a)
    four sides and one angle are given
  • b)
    four angles and one side are given
  • c)
    four sides are given
  • d)
    three sides and a diagonal are given
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Understanding Quadrilaterals
In geometry, a quadrilateral is a polygon with four edges (or sides) and four vertices. To determine if a quadrilateral can be formed given specific measurements, we must consider the relationships between the sides and angles.

Option A: Four Sides and One Angle
Given the measures of four sides and one angle, we can construct a quadrilateral because:
- **Side Lengths**: The lengths of the four sides can be used to define the shape and size of the quadrilateral.
- **Angle Influence**: The specified angle helps determine the orientation of those sides. By knowing one angle, you can place the sides in such a way that they connect appropriately to form a closed shape.
- **Triangle Formation**: With the given angle, two triangles can be formed using the sides adjacent to the angle, allowing you to complete the quadrilateral.

Other Options Explained
- **Option B: Four Angles and One Side**
- While knowing four angles defines the sum (360 degrees), it does not guarantee the sides can close to form a quadrilateral.
- **Option C: Four Sides Only**
- The lengths alone do not ensure a quadrilateral can be formed due to the triangle inequality theorem, which must be satisfied.
- **Option D: Three Sides and a Diagonal**
- This configuration can lead to ambiguity in forming a quadrilateral, as multiple configurations may exist.

Conclusion
Thus, the correct answer is indeed option A, where the combination of four sides and one angle provides sufficient information to construct a quadrilateral.

Understanding Transversals and Corresponding Angles
When a transversal intersects two parallel lines, several angles are formed, including corresponding angles. Understanding these angles is crucial in solving geometry problems.
What is a Transversal?
- A transversal is a line that intersects two or more lines at different points.
- The lines can be parallel or non-parallel.
Types of Angles Formed
When a transversal intersects a pair of lines, it creates eight angles. These angles can be categorized into different types:
- Corresponding Angles: These are the angles that are in the same position on different parallel lines.
Counting Corresponding Angles
When a transversal intersects two parallel lines, the following pairs of corresponding angles are formed:
1. Top Left Angle with Bottom Left Angle: Both angles are on the same side of the transversal.
2. Top Right Angle with Bottom Right Angle: Both angles are also on the same side of the transversal.
3. Angle in the Upper Section: The angle above the transversal corresponds to the angle below it on the same side.
4. Angle in the Lower Section: The angle below the transversal corresponds to the angle above it on the same side.
Hence, there are 4 pairs of corresponding angles.
Conclusion
In total, a transversal intersecting a pair of lines forms 4 pairs of corresponding angles. This characteristic is fundamental to understanding angle relationships in geometry, making option 'A' the correct choice.
