HOTS for Maths Olympiad - 4 - Question 1

Read the given statements and select the incorrect option.

Detailed Solution: Question 1

The measure of each exterior angle of a regular pentagon is 360°/5 = 72°. Hence, the given statement is correct. The incorrect option here should be revised as "The measure of each exterior angle of a regular pentagon is 60°."

HOTS for Maths Olympiad - 4 - Question 2

Which of the following is not a property of an isosceles triangle?

Detailed Solution: Question 2

An isosceles triangle does not necessarily have all angles equal; it only has two equal angles. Hence, Option C is incorrect.

HOTS for Maths Olympiad - 4 - Question 3

Read the following statements carefully and state ‘T’ for true and ‘F’ for false.
(i) The roots of the quadratic equation x2 − 5x + 6 = 0 are 2 and 3.
(ii) The quadratic equation x2 + 4x + 5 = 0 has real and distinct roots.
(iii) The sum of the roots of the quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0 is given by - b/a

Detailed Solution: Question 3

(i) The quadratic equation x2 - 5x +6 = 0 factors to (x -2)(x -3) = 0, so the roots are 2 and 3. True.
(ii) The quadratic equation x2 + 4x + 5 = 0 has a discriminant of 42 - 4 • 1 • 5 =16 - 20 = -4, which is less than zero, so it has no real roots. False.
(iii) The sum of the roots of the quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0 is given by -b/a. True.

HOTS for Maths Olympiad - 4 - Question 4

Read the following statements carefully and state ‘T’ for true and ‘F’ for false.

(i) The length of the diagonal of a square with side length s is s√2 ​.
(ii) The volume of a cube with side length a is a3.
(iii) The surface area of a cube with side length a is 6a2.

Detailed Solution: Question 4

HOTS for Maths Olympiad - 4 - Question 5

Fill in the blanks and select the correct option.

(i) The sum of the first n terms of an arithmetic progression (AP) is given by Sn = n/2 (2a + (n - 1) d). If the sum of the first 10 terms is 220, then the value of a + d is P.
(ii) If the 5th term of the same AP is 22, then the value of a is Q.

Detailed Solution: Question 5

HOTS for Maths Olympiad - 4 - Question 6

Fill in the blanks and select the correct option.

(i) If the equation x2 - (k + 1)x + k = 0 has one root equal to 1, then the value of k is P.

(ii) The other root of the equation is Q.

Detailed Solution: Question 6

(i) Substituting x = 1 in the equation, we get:

Therefore, k can be any value, but since the other options do not satisfy, k = 0.

(ii) With k = 0, the equation becomes x2 - x = 0, with roots 0 and 1. Thus, the other root is 2.

HOTS for Maths Olympiad - 4 - Question 7

Read the following statements and select the correct option.

Statement-I: The derivative of sin(x) is cos(x).
Statement-Il: The derivative of cos(x) is sin(x).

Detailed Solution: Question 7

The derivative of sin(x) is indeed cos(x), but the derivative of cos(x) is - sin(x), not sin(x). Therefore, Statement-I is true, but Statement-Il is false.

HOTS for Maths Olympiad - 4 - Question 8

Read the following statements and select the correct option.

Statement-I: The function f(x) = x2 is an even function.
Statement-II: The function f (x) = xis an odd function.

Detailed Solution: Question 8

HOTS for Maths Olympiad - 4 - Question 9

Solve the following and select the correct option.

(i) A rectangle has a length twice its width. If its perimeter is 36 cm, find the dimensions of the rectangle.
(ii) A cylinder has a height of 10 cm and a radius of 3 cm. Find its volume. Use π 22/7

Detailed Solution: Question 9


HOTS for Maths Olympiad - 4 - Question 10

Solve the following and select the correct option.

(i) The product of two numbers is 240 and their sum is 34. Find the numbers.

(ii) A cone has a base radius of 3 cm and a height of 4 cm. Find its volume. Use π = 22/7
