Question:1

To divide a line segment AB in the ratio $5:7$, first, a ray AX is drawn so that$\angle BAX$ is an acute angle, and then at equal distances, points are marked on the ray AX such that the minimum number of these points is
(A) 8 (B) 10 (C) 11 (D) 12

Answer(D) 12
Solution
Given: $\angle BAX$ is an acute angle.
The required ratio is $5:7$
Let m = 5, n = 7
57598
Steps of construction
1. Draw any ray AX making an acute angle with AB.
2. Locate 12 points on AX at equal distances. (Because here $m+n= 12$)
3. Join $A_{12}B$
4. Through the point $A_{5}$ draw a line parallel to $A_{12}B$ intersecting AB at the point P.
Then $AP:PB= 5:7$
$\because A_{5}P\parallel A_{12}B$
$\therefore \frac{AA_{5}}{A_{5}A_{12}}= \frac{AP}{PB}$ (By Basic Proportionality theorem)
By construction $\frac{AA_{5}}{A_{5}A_{12}}= \frac{5}{7}$
$\therefore \frac{AP}{PB}= \frac{5}{7}$
Hence, the number of points is 12.

Question:2

To divide a line segment AB in the ratio $4:7$, a ray AX is drawn first such that $\angle BAX$ is an acute angle and then points $A_{1}, A_{2 }, A_{3}\cdots$ are located at equal distances on the ray AX and the point B is joined to:
(A) A12 (B) A11 (C) A10 (D) A9

Answer(B) A11
Solution

Given: $\angle BAX$ is an acute angle
The required ratio is $4:7$
Let m = 4, n = 7
$m+n= 4+7= 11$
57610
Steps of construction
1. Draw any ray AX making an acute angle with AB.
2. Locate 11 points on AX at equal distances (because m + n = 11)
3. Join $A_{11}B$
4. Through the point A4 draw a line parallel to $A_{11}B$ intersecting AB at the point P.
Then $AP:PB= 4:7$
Hence, point B is joined to A11.

Question:3

To divide a line segment AB in the ratio $5:6$, draw a ray AX such that $\angle BAX$ is an acute angle, then draw a ray BY parallel to AX and the points $A_{ 1}, A_ {2}, A_{3}\cdots$and $B _{1}, B_{2}, B_{3}\cdots$are located at equal distances on ray AX and BY, respectively. Then the points joined are
(A) A5 and B6 (B) A­ and B5 (C) A4 and B5 (D) A5 and B4

Answer(A) A5 and B6

Solution
Given: $\angle BAX$ and $\angle ABY$ both are acute angles and AX parallel to BY
The required ratio is $5:6$
Let m = 5 , n = 6
57617
Steps of construction
1. Draw any ray AX making an acute angle with AB.
2. Draw a ray $BY\parallel AX$.
3. Locate the points $A_{1},A_{2},A_{3},A_{4},A_{5}$ on AX at equal distances
4. Locate the points $B_{1}, B_{2}, B_{3 }, B_{ 4 }, B_{5}$ on BY at a distance equal to the distance between points on the AX line.
5. Join $A_{5}B_{6}$.
Let it intersect AB at a point C in the figure.
Then $AC:CB= 5:6$
Here $\bigtriangleup AA_{5}C$ is similar to $\bigtriangleup BB_{6}C$
Then $\frac{AA_{5}}{BB_{6}}= \frac{5}{6}= \frac{AC}{BC}$
$\therefore$by construction $\frac{AA_{5}}{BB_{6}}= \frac{5}{6}$
$\therefore \frac{AC}{BC}= \frac{5}{6}$
$\therefore$ Points joined one A5 and B6.

Question:4

ccdd
Steps of construction
1. Draw any ray BX making an angle with BC on the side opposite vertex A.
2. Locate 7 points on BX in equidistant
3. Now join B7 to C
4. Draw a line through B3${C}'$ parallel to B7C .

Question:5

To construct a triangle similar to a given $\bigtriangleup ABC$ with its sides $\frac{8}{5}$ of the corresponding sides of $\bigtriangleup ABC$ draw a ray BX such that $\angle CBX$ is an acute angle and X is on the opposite side of A concerning BC. The minimum number of points to be located at equal distances on ray BX is
(A) 5 (B) 8 (C) 13 (D) 3

Answer (B) 8
Solution
To construct a triangle similar to a triangle, with its sides $\frac{8}{5}$ of the corresponding sides of a given triangle, the minimum number of points to be located at an equal distance is equal to the greater of 8 and 5 in .$\frac{8}{5}$ Here $8> 5$
So, the minimum number of points to be located at equal distances on ray BX is 8.

Question:6

To draw a pair of tangents to a circle which are inclined to each other at an Angle of $60^{\circ}$, it is required to draw tangents at the endpoints of those two radii of the circle, and the angle between them should be
(A) $135^{\circ}$ (B) $90^{\circ}$ (C) $60^{\circ}$ (D) $120^{\circ}$

Answer(D) 120°
Solution
According to question:-
57641
Given :$\angle QPR= 60^{\circ}$
Let $\angle QOR= x$
As we know, the angle between the agent and the radius of a circle is 90 degrees
$\angle PQO= \angle PRO= 90^{\circ}$
We know that $\angle PQO+ \angle PRO+ \angle QPR+\angle QOR= 360^{\circ}$
[$\because$ sum of interior angles of quadrilateral is $360^{\circ}$ ]
$90^{\circ}+90^{\circ}+x+60^{\circ}= 360^{\circ}$|
$240+x= 360^{\circ}$
$x= 120^{\circ}$

Total questions: 4

Question:1

Write True or False and give reasons for your answer in each of the following:
By geometrical construction, it is possible to divide a line segment in the ratio $\sqrt{3}:\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$

Answer [True]
Solution
We need both positive integers to divide a line segment in the ratio.
So, we can simplify it by multiplying both the terms by .$\sqrt{3}$
We obtain $\sqrt{3}\times \sqrt{3} : \sqrt{3}\times \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$
$\Rightarrow 3:1$
So, the required ratio is $3:1$
In geometrical construction is possible to divide a line segment in the ratio $3:1$

Question:2

Write True or False and give reasons for your answer in each of the following:
To construct a triangle similar to a given $\bigtriangleup ABC$ with its sides $\frac{7}{3}$ of the corresponding sides of $\bigtriangleup ABC$, draw a ray BX making an acute angle with BCand X lies on the opposite side of A concerning BC. The points B1, B2,..., B7 are located at equal distances on BX, B3 is joined to C and then a line segment $B_6{C}'$ is drawn parallel to B3C where ${C}'$ lies on BC produced. Finally, line segment ${A}'{C}'$ is drawn parallel to AC.

Answer: False
Solution
According to the question:-
To construct a triangle similar to a given $\bigtriangleup ABC$ with its sides $\frac{7}{3}$ of the corresponding sides of $\bigtriangleup ABC$
1. Draw a line segment BC
2. Taking B and C as centres, draw two arcs of suitable radii intersecting each other at A.
3. Join BA and CA?ABC is the required triangle.
4. From B draw any ray BX downwards making an acute angle CBX.
5. Locate seven points B1, B2, b3, …. B7 on BX such that BB1 = B1B2 = B1B3 = B3B4 = B4B5 = B5B6 = B6B7.
6. Join B3C and from B7 draw a line B7C’ ? B3C intersecting the extended line segment BC at C’.
7. From point C’ draw C’A’? CAintersectsg the extended line segment BA at A
57650
But as given, if we join B3C and from B6 draw a line B6C’? B3C intersecting the extended line segment BC at C’.
$BB_{3}/BB_{6}={BC}/{{BC}'} = 3/6$
${BC}/{{BC}'} = 1/2$
$BC:{BC}'= 1:2$
Hence, the sides are not in the ratio of 7:3
So, the required triangle can not be constructed in this way.
Hence, the given statement is false.

Question:3

Write True or False and give reasons for your answer in each of the following:
A pair of tangents can be constructed from a point P to a circle of radius 3.5 cm situated at a distance of 3 cm from the centre

Answer [False]
Solution
Radius, r = 3.5 cm
Point distance from centre = 3 cm
But, $r> d\Rightarrow 3.5 cm> 3cm$
So, the point P lies inside the circle.
So, a pair of tangents cannot be drawn to point P to a circle.

Question:4

Write True or False and give reasons for your answer in each of the following:
A pair of tangents can be constructed to a circle inclined at an
angle of $ 170^ 70^{\circ}$.

Answer [True]
Solution
Tangent: - It is a straight line that touches the curve but does not cross it. A pair of tangents can be constructed to a circle inclined at an angle greater than $0^{\circ}$ but less than $180^{\circ}$. Here, the inclination angle is $170^{\circ}$. Hence, it is possible.

5. Through the point $A_{3}$ draw a line parallel to $BA_{8}$ which intersect line AB at P..
Here triangle AA3P is similar to triangle $AA_{8}B$
$AA_{3}/AA_{8}= AP/AB= 3/5$ (by construction)

From equation 1
$AP= \frac{3}{4}AB$
$AP= \frac{3}{4}\times 5= \frac{15}{4}\: \: \left [ \because AB= 5cm \right ]$
P is any point on B
$\therefore PB= AB-AP= 5-\frac{15}{4}= \frac{20-15}{4}= \frac{5}{4}cm$
$\frac{AP}{AB}= \frac{15}{4}\times \frac{4}{5}= \frac{1}{3}$
$AP:AB= 1:3$

8. From point D draw $DE\parallel CA$ meting BA produced at E.
Then EBD is required triangle. We can name it PQR.
Justification
$\because B_{4}D\parallel B_{3}C$

$Now\, \therefore \frac{BD}{BC}= \frac{BC+CD}{BC}= 1+\frac{CD}{BC}= 1+\frac{1}{3}= \frac{4}{3}$
$Also\, DE\parallel CA$
$\therefore \bigtriangleup ABC\sim \bigtriangleup DBE$
$\frac{EB}{AB}= \frac{DE}{CA}= \frac{BD}{BC}= \frac{4}{3}$

6.Join $B_{7}B$ and form $B_{5}$ draw $B_{5}X\parallel B_{7}B\, \, BY$making the angle equal From point X draw $XY\parallel BC$ intersecting AC at Y. Then, DAMN is the required triangle whose sides are equal to $\frac{5}{7}$ of the corresponding sides of the $\bigtriangleup ABC.

Justification: Here, $B_{5X}\parallel B_{7}B$ [by construction]
$\therefore \frac{AX}{XB}= \frac{5}{2}\Rightarrow \frac{XB}{AX}= \frac{2}{5}$
Now $\frac{AB}{AX}= \frac{AX+XB}{AX}$
$1+\frac{XB}{AX}= 1+\frac{2}{5}= \frac{7}{5}$
Also, $XY\parallel BC$
$\therefore \bigtriangleup AXY\sim \bigtriangleup ABC$
$\frac{AX}{AB}= \frac{AY}{AC}= \frac{YX}{BC}= \frac{5}{7}$

Question:6

Draw a circle of radius 4 cm. Construct a pair of tangents to it, the angle between which is $60^{\circ}$. Also, justify the
construction. Measure the distance between the centre of the circle and the point of intersection of tangents

Solution
1662381094959
Steps of construction
1. Draw a circle of radius OA = 4 cm with centre O
2. Produce OA to P such that $OA= AP=4 cm$
3. Draw a perpendicular bisector of OP = 8 =8cm
4. Now, taking A as the centre, we draw the circle of radius AP = OA = 4 cm
5Which intersectsst the circle at x and y
6. Join PX and PY
7. PX and PY are the tangents to the circle
Justification
In $\bigtriangleup OAX$ we have
$OA= OP= 4\, cm$ (Radius)
$AX= 4\, cm$ (Radius of circle with centre A)
$\therefore OAX$ is equilateral triangle
$\angle OAX= 60^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \angle XAP= 120^{\circ}$
In $\bigtriangleup PAX$ we have
$PA= AX= 4cm$
$\angle XAP= 120^{\circ}$
$\angle APX= 30^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow APY= 30^{\circ}$
Hence $\angle XPY= 60^{\circ}$

Question:7

Draw a triangle ABC in which AB = 4 cm, BC = 6 cm and AC = 9 cm. Construct a triangle similar to $\bigtriangleup ABC$ with scale factor $\frac{3}{2}$ . Justify the construction. Are the two triangles congruent? Note that all three angles and two sides of the two triangles are equal.

Solution
57689
Steps of construction

1 . Draw a line segment BC = 6 cm

2 . Taking B and C as centres, draw an arc of radius AB 4cm and AC = 9 cm

3. Join AB and AC

4 . Triangle ABC is a required triangle. From Bd raw ray BM with acute angle $\angle XBM$

5.Make 3 points $B_{1},B_{2},B_{3}$ on BM with equal distance

6.Join $B_{2}C$ and $B_{3}$ draw $B_{3}X\parallel B_{2}C$ intersecting BC at X From point X draw XY||CA intersecting the extended line segment BA to Y Then $\bigtriangleup BXY$ is the required triangle whose sides are equal to$\frac{3}{2}$ of the $\bigtriangleup ABC$
Justification :
Here $B_{3}X\parallel B_{2}C$
$\therefore \frac{BC}{CX}= \frac{2}{1}$
$\therefore \frac{BX}{BC}= \frac{BC+CX}{BC}= 1+\frac{1}{2}= \frac{3}{2}$
Also $XY\parallel CA$
$\bigtriangleup ABC\sim \bigtriangleup YBX$
$\therefore \frac{YB}{AB}= \frac{YX}{AC}= \frac{BX}{BC}= \frac{3}{2}$.

Here are three angles that are the same, but the three sides are not the same.
$\therefore$The two triangles are not congruent because, if two triangles are congruent, then they have the same shape and size.
