Case Based Questions Test: Triangles - 1 - Question 1

Direction: Read the following text and answer the below questions:
SCALE FACTOR
A scale drawing of an object is the same shape at the object but a different size. The scale of a drawing is a comparison of the length used on a drawing to the length it represents. The scale is written as a ratio. The ratio of two corresponding sides in similar figures is called the scale factor
Scale factor = length in image / corresponding length in object

If one shape can become another using revising, then the shapes are similar. Hence, two shapes are similar when one can become the other after a resize, flip, slide or turn. In the photograph below showing the side view of a train engine. Scale factor is 1:200
This means that a length of 1 cm on the photograph above corresponds to a length of 200 cm or 2 m, of the actual engine. The scale can also be written as the ratio of two lengths.
The length of AB in the given figure:

Detailed Solution for Case Based Questions Test: Triangles - 1 - Question 1

Since, ΔABC and ΔADE are similar, then their ratio of corresponding sides are equal.

6x = 3(x + 4)

6x = 3x + 12

6x – 3x = 12

3x = 12 x = 4

Hence, AB = 4 cm.

If the length of the model is 11 cm, then the overall length of the engine in the photograph above, including the couplings(mechanism used to connect) is:

Detailed Solution for Case Based Questions Test: Triangles - 1 - Question 4

Given that

Scale factor is 1:200

Therefore,

11 x 200 cm = Length of real life engine

2200 cm = Length of real life engine

Length of real life engine = 2200 cm

Length of real life engine

Length of real life engine = 22 m.

What is the actual width of the door if the width of the door in photograph is 0.35 cm?

Detailed Solution for Case Based Questions Test: Triangles - 1 - Question 5
Given that

Scale factor is 1:200

Therefore,

0.35 x 200 cm = Actual width of the door

= Actual width of the door

35 x 2 cm = Actual width of the door

70 cm = Actual width of the door

Actual width of the door = 70 cm

Actual width of the door

Actual width of the door = 0.7 m.

What is the distance AC?

Detailed Solution for Case Based Questions Test: Triangles - 1 - Question 12
According to the pythagoras,

AC2 = AD2 + CD2

AC2 = (30 m)2 + (40 m)2

AC2 = 900 + 1600

AC2 = 2500

AC = 50 m

Find the length AB?

Detailed Solution for Case Based Questions Test: Triangles - 1 - Question 13
AC = 50 m

BC = 12 m

AC = AB + BC

50 m = AB + 12 m

AB = 50 m – 12 m

AB = 38 m

Which is the following does not form a Pythagoras triplet?

Detailed Solution for Case Based Questions Test: Triangles - 1 - Question 15
We need to check each and every option

Option A - (7, 24, 25)

72 + 242 = 49 + 576

= 625

= 252

So, this is a Pythagorean triplet

Option B - (15, 8, 17)

152 + 82 = 225 + 64

= 289

= 172

So, this is a Pythagorean triplet

Option C - (5, 12, 13)

52 + 122 = 25 + 144

= 169

= 132

So, this is a Pythagorean triplet
