(iii) Parallel lines have equal slopes.

Detailed Solution: Question 3

(i) The slope of the line passing through (2, 3) and (4, 7) is  True
(ii) The equation of a line with slope m and y-intercept c is y = mx + c. True.
(iii) Parallel lines have equal slopes. True.

HOTS for Maths Olympiad - 6 - Question 4

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

(i) The probability of getting a head in a single toss of a fair coin is 0.5.
(ii) The probability of rolling a sum of 7 with two fair six-sided dice is 1/6.
(iii) The probability of drawing an ace from a standard deck of 52 cards is 1/13.

Detailed Solution: Question 4

(i) The probability of getting a head in a single toss of a fair coin is 0.5. True.
(ii) The probability of rolling a sum of 7 with two fair six-sided dice is 6/36 = 1/6.True.
(iii) The probability of drawing an ace from a standard deck of 52 cards is 4/52 = 1/13. True.

HOTS for Maths Olympiad - 6 - Question 5

Fill in the blanks and select the correct option.

(i) If the system of equations 2x + 3y = 7 and 4x + ky = 14 has no solution, then the value of k is P.

(ii) If the system of equations 5x + 4y = 3 and 10x + 8y = k has infinitely many solutions, then the value of k is Q.

Detailed Solution: Question 5

(i) For no solution, the coefficients of xxx and yyy in the two equations must be proportional, but not equal. Therefore,

(ii) For infinitely many solutions, the coefficients of x and y must be proportional and the constant term must also follow the same proportion.

HOTS for Maths Olympiad - 6 - Question 6

Fill in the blanks and select the correct option.

(i) The roots of the equation x2 + px + q = 0 are in the ratio 2:3. If the roots are 2/3 and 2, then the value of p is P.
(ii) The value of q is Q

Detailed Solution: Question 6

(i) If the roots are in the ratio 2:3, let the roots be 2k and 3k. The sum of the roots is given by −p/a = 2k + 3k = 5k. Thus, p=−5k.
(ii) The product of the roots is given by q/a = (2k) (3k) = 6k2. Hence, q = 6k2

HOTS for Maths Olympiad - 6 - Question 7

Read the following statements and select the correct option.

Statement-I: The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is always 180 degrees.
Statement-II: The sum of the exterior angles of a triangle is always 360 degrees.

Detailed Solution: Question 7

The sum of the interior angles of any triangle is always 180 degrees, and the sum of the exterior angles of any polygon, including a triangle, is always 360 degrees. Therefore, both statements are true.

HOTS for Maths Olympiad - 6 - Question 8

Read the following statements and select the correct option.

Statement-I: The sum of the interior angles of a polygon with n sides is (n -2) x 180°.

Statement-Il: The sum of the exterior angles of any polygon is always 360°.

Detailed Solution: Question 8

Statement-I is correct because the formula for the sum of interior angles of a polygon with n sides is (n - 2) x 180°.
Statement-II is also correct because the sum of the exterior angles of any polygon is always 360°.

HOTS for Maths Olympiad - 6 - Question 9

Solve the following and select the correct option.

(i) Find the value of k for which the system of equations 3x + 4y = 5 and 6x + ky = 10 has no solution.
(ii) The base of a triangle is 5 cm more than its height. If the area of the triangle is 30 cm2, find its base and height.

Detailed Solution: Question 9

HOTS for Maths Olympiad - 6 - Question 10

Solve the following and select the correct option.

(i) Find the area of a parallelogram with base 10 cm and height 5 cm.
(ii) If the area of a circle is 154 cm2, find its radius. Use π = 22/7.
