Q.1. Calculate the largest number which divides 70 and 125, leaves remainders 5 and 8, respectively. (1 Mark)
OR
If p is a prime number, then find LCM of p, p2 and p3. (1 Mark)
Ans. Required largest number = HCF of (70 – 5) and (125 – 8) = HCF of 65 and 117 = 13
OR
p2 = p × p
p = p × 1
p3 = p × p × p
Required LCM = p × p × p = p3.
Q.2. Explain why 13233343563715 is a composite number? (1 Mark)
OR
A number is chosen at random from the numbers – 3, – 2, – 1, 0, 1, 2, 3. What will be the probability that square of this number is less than or equal to 1. (1 Mark)
Ans. Since, the given number ends in 5. Hence, it is a multiple of 5. Therefore, it is a composite number.
OR
No. of all possible outcomes = 7
No. of favourable outcomes = 3
The numbers whose square is ≤ 1 = – 1, 0, 1
∴ Required probability = 3 / 7
Q.3. How many polynomials can be formed with – 2 and 5 as zeroes? (1 Mark)
Ans. We know that if we divide or multiply a polynomial by any constant (real number), then the zeroes of polynomial remains same.
Here, a = −2 and b = +5
∴ α + β = −2 + 5 = 3 and
αβ = −2 × 5 = −10
So, required polynomial is x2 – (a + b)x + ab= x2 – 3x – 10
If we multiply this polynomial by any real number, let 5 and 2, we get 5x2 – 15x – 50 and 2x2 – 6x – 20 which are different polynomials but having same zeroes –2 and 5. So, we can obtain so many (infinite polynomials) from two given zeroes.
Q.4. Graphically, the pair of equations : (1 Mark)
6x – 3y + 10 = 0
2x – y + 9 = 0
Represents what kind of lines.
Ans. Here,
So, the system of linear equations is inconsistent (no solution) and graph will be a pair of parallel lines.
Q.5. Is the equation (√2x + √3)2 + x2 = 3x2 - 5x quadratic? Justify. (1 Mark)
Ans. (√2x)2 + (√3)2 + 2 x √2x x √3 + x2 = 3x2 - 5x
2x2 + 3 + 2√6x + x2 = 3x2 - 5x
3x2 + 2√6x + 3 = 3x2 - 5x
x(5 + 2√6) + 3 = 0
It is not of the form of ax2 +bx +c = 0.
So it is not a quadratic equation.
Q.6. Find the 30th term of the A.P., : 10, 7, 4 ................ (1 Mark)
Ans. In the given AP, a = 10 and d = 7 – 10 = –3
Thus, the 30th term is t30 = 10 + (30 − 1) (−3) = −77
Q.7. Find the distance of the point (– 3, – 4) from the x-axis (in units). (1 Mark)

Q.8. In the given figure, if ∠AOB = 125°, then find ∠COD. (1 Mark)
OR
In figure, O is the centre of a circle. PT and PQ are tangents to the circle from an external point P. If ∠TPQ = 70°, then find ∠TRQ. (1 Mark)
Ans. Since, quadrilateral circumscribing a circle subtends supplementary angles at the centre of the circle.
∴ ∠AOB + ∠COD = 180°
125° + ∠COD = 180°
∠COD = 180° – 125° = 55°
OR
∠TOQ = 180° – 70° = 110°
(angle of supplementary)
Then, ∠TRQ = 1 / 2 ∠TOQ
(angle at the circumference of the circle by same arc)
= 1 / 2 x 110° = 55°.
Q.9. If the circumference of a circle and the perimeter of a square are equal, then find the relation between area of circle and area of square. (1 Mark)
Ans. According to question,
Circumference of a circle = Perimeter of square
Let ‘r’ and ‘a’ be the radius of circle and side of square respectively.
2πr = 4a
22 / 7 r = 2a
11r = 7a
r = 7a / 11 ..(i)
Area of circle, A1 = πr2
From equation (i), we have
A1 = π(7a / 11)2
= 22 / 7(49a2 / 121)
= 14a2 / 11 ...(ii)
Area of circle, A2 =a2 ...(iii)
From equation (ii) and (iii), we have
A1 > A2
Area of circle is greater than the area of square.

or,
or,
or,
or, (x + 3)(3x – 1) = x(3x + 3)
or, 3x2 – x + 9x – 3 = 3x2 + 3x
or, 8x – 3 = 3x
or, 8x – 3x = 3
or, 5x = 3
∴ x = 3 / 5
Q.12. Find the value of sin260° + 2tan 45° – cos230°. (1 Mark)
OR
If sin A = 3 / 4, then find value of sec A. (1 Mark)
Ans. sin260º + 2 tan 45º – cos230º
(√3 / 2)2 + 2(1) - (√3 / 2)2
= 2
OR
∴ sec A = 4 / √7
Q.13. Find the area (in cm2) of the circle that can be inscribed in a square of side 8 cm. (1 Mark)
Ans.
Side of square = diameter of circle = 8 cm
∴ Radius of circle, r = 8 / 2 = 4 cm
Area of circle = πr2
= π × 4 × 4 = 16πcm2
Q.14. The curved surface area of a cylinder is 264 m2 and its volume is 924 m3. Find the ratio of its height to its diameter. (1 Mark)
Ans. Curved Surface area of cylinder = 2πrh Volume of cylinder = πr2h
πr2h / 2πrh = 924 / 264 ⇒ r / 2 = 7 / 2
∴ r = 7 m
2πrh = 264
or, 2 x 22 / 7 x 7 x h = 264
or, h = 6 m
∴ h / 2r = 6 / 14 = 3 / 7
Hence, h : d = 3 : 7
Q.15. If the distance between the points (4, k) and (1, 0) is 5, then what can be the possible values of k? (1 Mark)
OR
Write the co-ordinates of a point P on x-axis which is equidistant from the points A(– 2, 0) and B (6, 0). (1 Mark)
Ans. Using distance formula,
or 32 + k2 = 25
k = ± 4
OR
Using distance formula :
Point on x-axis is (2, 0)
Detailed Answer.
Let (x, 0) be equidistant from (– 2, 0) and (6, 0) by distant formula :
On squaring both sides,
(x + 2)2 = (x – 6)2
⇒ x2 + 4 + 4x = x2 + 36 – 12x
⇒ 4x + 12x = 36 – 4
⇒ 16x = 32
⇒ x = 2
Hence, the required point P(x, 0) = (2, 0)
Q.16. For the following distribution : (1 Mark)
Find the sum of lower limits of median class and modal class.
Ans.
The modal class is the class having the maximum frequency.
The maximum frequency 20 belongs to class (15 – 20).
Here, n = 66
So, n / 2 = 66 / 2 = 33
33 lies in the class 10–15.
Therefore, 10 – 15 is the median class.
So, sum of lower limits of (15 – 20) and (10 – 15) is (15 + 10) = 25.

Ans.
AE be observer = 1.5 m
BD is the tower = 30 m
∠BAC = θ, BC = 30 – 1.5 = 28.5 m
In ΔBAC, BC / AC = tan θ
⇒ 28.5 / 28.5 = tan θ
⇒ tan θ = 1 = tan 45°
⇒ θ = 45°
Hence, the angle of elevation is 45°.
OR
Let BD = x m and DC = y m.
From ΔABD, ∠D = 90°
7√3 / x = tan 30°
⇒ 7√3 / x = 1 / √3
⇒ 7√3 x √3
= 21 m
From ΔADC, ∠D = 90°
7√3 / y = tan 60°
⇒ 7√3 = y√3
⇒ y = 7 m,
BC = BD + DC
= 21 + 7 = 28 m.
Hence, the value of BC = 28 m.
Q.25. A child prepares a poster on "save water" on a square sheet whose each side measures 50 cm. At each corner of the sheet, she draws a quadrant of radius 15 cm in which she shows the ways to save water. At the centre, she draws a circle of diameter 21 cm and writes a slogan save water in it. Find the area of the remaining sheet. (2 Mark)
Ans. Side of square= 50 cm
∴ Area of square = 50 × 50 = 2500 cm2
Radius of quadrant = 15 cm.
Area of 4 quadrants = 4 x 1 / 4 πr2 = πr2
= π × 15 × 15
= 22 / 7 x 225
= 707.14 cm2
Area of circle = πr2
= 22 / 7 x (21 / 2)2
= 22 / 7 x 21 / 2 x 21 x 2
= 346.5 cm2
Area of remaining sheet = Area of square – 4(area of quadrant) – Area of circle
= 2500 – 707.14 – 346.5
= 1446.36 sq. cm

Q.27. Sum of the ages of a father and the son is 40 years. If father ’s age is three times that of his son, then find their respective ages. (3 Mark)
OR
A part of monthly hostel charge is fixed and the remaining depends on the number of days one has taken food in the mess. When Swati takes food for 20 days, she has to pay ₹ 3,000 as hostel charges whereas Mansi who takes food for 25 days has to pay ₹ 3,500 as hostel charges. Find the fixed charges and the cost of food per day. (3 Mark)
Ans. Let age of father and son be x and y respectively.
Then, x + y = 40 ...(i)
and x = 3y ...(ii)
By solving eqns. (i) and (ii), we get
x = 30 and y = 10
Thus, the ages of father and son are 30 years and 10 years.
OR
Let fixed charge be x and per day food cost be y
Then, x + 20y = 3000 ...(i)
and x + 25y = 3500 ...(ii)
Subtracting (i) from (ii), we get
y = 100 Substituting this value of y in (i), we get
x + 20(100) = 3000 x = 1000
∴ x = 1000 and y = 100
Hence, fixed charge and cost of food per day are ₹ 1,000 and ₹ 100.
Q.28. The ninth term of an A.P. is equal to seven times the second term and twelfth term exceeds five times the third term by 2. Find the first term and the common difference. (3 Mark)
OR
The sum of first n terms of three arithmetic progressions are S1, S2 and S3 respectively. The first term of each A.P. is 1 and common differences are 1, 2 and 3 respectively. Prove that S1 + S3 = 2S2. (3 Mark)
Ans. Let the first term of A.P. be a and common difference be d.
Given, a9 = 7a2
or, a + 8d = 7(a + d) ...(i)
a + 8d = 7a + 7d – 6a + d = 0 ...(iii)
and a12 = 5a3 + 2
Again, a + 11d = 5(a + 2d) + 2 ...(ii)
a + 11d = 5a + 10d + 2 – 4a + d = 2 ...(iv)
Subtracting (iv) from (iii), we get – 2a = – 2
or, a = 1
From (iii),
– 6 + d = 0
d = 6
Hence, first term = 1 and common difference = 6
OR
Since, S1 = 1 + 2 + 3 + .... + n.
S2 = 1 + 3 + 5 + ...upto n terms
and S3 = 1 + 4 + 7 + ...upto n terms
or, S1 = n(n + 1) / 2
Also,
= n / 2[2n] = n2
and
= n(3n - 1) / 2
Now,
= n[4n] / 2
= 2n2 = 2S2
Hence Proved.

In ΔOLP, tan 60° = PL / OL
⇒
⇒ √3 = 87 / OL
⇒ OL = 87 / √3
In ΔOMQ, tan 30° = QM / OM
⇒
⇒ OM = 87√3
∴ Distance travelled by the balloon,
PQ = LM = OM – OL
(ii) Height and distance.
Q.30. If (x2 + y2)(a2 + b2) = (ax + by)2. Prove that x / a + y / b. (3 Mark)
Ans. Given, (x2 + y2)(a2 + b2) = (ax + by)2
⇒ x2a2 + x2b2 + y2a2 + y2b2 = a2x2 + b2y2 + 2abxy
⇒ x2b2 + y2a2 – 2abxy = 0
⇒ (xb – ya)2 = 0
[∵ (a - b)2 = a2 + b2 - 2ab]

Q.31. A bag contains 18 balls out of which x balls are red. (3 Mark)
(i) If one ball is drawn at random from the bag, what is the probability that it is not red ?
(ii) If 2 more red balls are put in the bag, the probability of drawing a red ball will be 9 / 8 times the probability of drawing a red ball in the first case. Find the value of x.
Ans. P(red ball) = x / 18
(i) P(no red ball) =
(ii) Now, Total number of balls = 18 + 2 = 20
Total number of Red balls = x + 2
P(red balls) =
Now, According to the question,
⇒ 180x = 144x + 288
⇒ 36x = 288
⇒ x = 288 / 36 = 8
Q.32. In the given figure, OP is equal to the diameter of a circle with centre O and PA and PB are tangents. Prove that ABP is an equilateral triangle. (3 Mark)
Ans. Construction : Join A to B.
We have,
OP = diameter
⇒ OQ + QP = diameter
⇒ Radius + QP = diameter
⇒ OQ = PQ = radius
Thus, OP is the hypotenuse of right angled ∆AOP.
So, In ∆AOP, sin θ = AO / OP = 1 / 2
θ = 30°
Hence, ∠APB = 60°
Now, in ∆ABP, AP = PB
So, ∠PAB = ∠PBA = 60°
∴ ∆APB is an equilateral triangle.
Q.33. If bcos θ = a, then prove that cosec θ + cot θ =(3 Mark)
Ans.
Given, cos θ = a / b
AC2 = AB2 – BC2
Hence proved.
All questions are compulsory. In case of internal choices, attempt any one.
Q.34. Solvewhere a + b ≠ 0. (5 Mark)
OR
Check whether the equation 5x2 – 6x – 2 = 0 has real roots and if it has, find them by the method of completing the square. Also, verify that roots obtained satisfy the given equation. (5 Mark)
Ans.
Given,
⇒
⇒
⇒
⇒
⇒ x(a + b+ x) = – ab
⇒ x2 + (a + b)x + ab = 0
⇒ (x + a)(x + b) = 0
⇒ x = – a or x = – b
OR
Discriminant ⇒ b2 – 4ac.
Here, a = 5, b = (– 6) and c = (– 2)
Then, b2 – 4ac = (– 6)2 – 4 × 5 × – 2
= 36 + 40 = 76 > 0
So the equation has real and two distinct roots.
Again, 5x2 – 6x = 2 (dividing both the sides by 5)

Q.35. In the given figure, D and E trisect BC. Prove that 8AE2 = 3AC2 + 5AD2. (5 Mark)
Ans. Let BD = DE = EC be x
BE = 2x
and BC = 3x
Now, in ΔABE,
AE2 = AB2 + BE2
= AB2 + 4x2, ...(i)
In ΔABC,
AC2 = AB2 + BC2 = AB2 + 9x2
In ΔADB, and AD2 = AB2 + BD2 = AB2 + x2
Now, on multiplying (i) by 8,
8AE2 = 8AB2 + 32x2 ...(ii)
and 3AC2 + 5AD2 = 3(AB2 + 9x2) + 5 (AB2 + x2)
= 3AB2 + 27x2 + 5AB2 + 5x2
= 8AB2 + 32x2 = 8 (AB2 + 4x2)
∴ 3AC2 + 5AD2 = 8AE2. [From eqns. (i)]
Hence proved.
Q.36. A solid is in the form of a cylinder with hemispherical ends. The total height of the solid is 20 cm and the diameter of the cylinder is 7 cm. Find the total volume of the solid. (π = 22 / 7) (5 Mark)
Ans. Height of cylinder= 20 – 7 = 13 cm.
Total volume =
Detailed Solution :
Height of the cylinder(h)= (20 – 7) cm = 13 cm
Radius of circular part(r) = 7 / 2 cm
Volume of solid = Volume of cylinder + 2 × Volume of hemisphere
= 77 / 2(53 / 3)cm3
= 680.17 cm3
