Geometry consists of an important portion dedicated to triangles, which gains clarity through studying congruence rules for triangle properties. The concepts of triangular inequalities receive attention in this exercise. The lesson demonstrates the connections between sides and angles and shows how we can derive important findings through such comparisons. Basic triangle properties enable us to foretell various side-angle relationships without performing physical measurements.
The CBSE is yet to announce the date for the supplementary exams. However, according to official reports, the supplementary exam date sheet is expected to be released in mid-July.
The content of Exercise 6.3 within the NCERT Solutions allows students to study questions concerning triangle inequalities and side–angle relationships. Such a study enables students to build their logical thinking combined with proof-writing competency by analysing relationships between "the side opposite to a larger angle is longer" and "the angle opposite to a longer side is greater." Through problem-solving activities in the NCERT Books, students gain confidence, which enables them to handle triangle inequality properties both in problems of daily life and competitive testing.
Answer:
(i) $\angle A=\angle P=60 ^\circ$
$\angle B=\angle Q=80 ^\circ$
$\angle C=\angle R=40 ^\circ$
$\therefore \triangle ABC \sim \triangle PQR$ (By AAA)
So , $\frac{AB}{QR}=\frac{BC}{RP}=\frac{CA}{PQ}$
(ii) As corresponding sides of both triangles are proportional.
$\therefore \triangle ABC \sim \triangle PQR$ (By SSS)
(iii) Given triangles are not similar because corresponding sides are not proportional.
(iv) $\triangle MNL \sim \triangle PQR$ by SAS similarity criteria.
(v) Given triangles are not similar because the corresponding angle is not contained by two corresponding sides
(vi) In $\triangle DEF$ , we know that
$\angle D+\angle E+\angle F=180 ^\circ$
$\Rightarrow 70 ^\circ+80 ^\circ+\angle F=180 ^\circ$
$\Rightarrow 150 ^\circ+\angle F=180 ^\circ$
$\Rightarrow \angle F=180 ^\circ-150 ^\circ=30 ^\circ$
In $\triangle PQR$ , we know that
$\angle P+\angle Q+\angle R=180 ^\circ$
$\Rightarrow 30 ^\circ+80 ^\circ+\angle R=180 ^\circ$
$\Rightarrow 110 ^\circ+\angle R=180 ^\circ$
$\Rightarrow \angle R=180 ^\circ-110 ^\circ=70 ^\circ$
$\angle Q=\angle P=70 ^\circ$
$\angle E=\angle Q=80 ^\circ$
$\angle F=\angle R=30 ^\circ$
$\therefore \triangle DEF\sim \triangle PQR$ ( By AAA)
Q2 In Fig. 6.35, $\Delta ODC \sim \Delta OBA$ , $\angle BOC = 125 ^\circ$ and $\angle CDO = 70 ^\circ$ . Find $\angle DOC , \angle DCO , \angle OAB$
Answer:
Given : $\Delta ODC \sim \Delta OBA$ , $\angle BOC = 125 ^\circ$ and $\angle CDO = 70 ^\circ$
$\angle DOC+\angle BOC=180 ^\circ$ (DOB is a straight line)
$\Rightarrow \angle DOC+125 ^\circ=180 ^\circ$
$\Rightarrow \angle DOC=180 ^\circ-125 ^\circ$
$\Rightarrow \angle DOC=55 ^\circ$
In $\Delta ODC ,$
$\angle DOC+\angle ODC+\angle DCO=180 ^\circ$
$\Rightarrow 55 ^\circ+ 70 ^\circ+\angle DCO=180 ^\circ$
$\Rightarrow \angle DCO+125 ^\circ=180 ^\circ$
$\Rightarrow \angle DCO=180 ^\circ-125 ^\circ$
$\Rightarrow \angle DCO=55 ^\circ$
Since , $\Delta ODC \sim \Delta OBA$ , so
$\Rightarrow\angle OAB= \angle DCO=55 ^\circ$ ( Corresponding angles are equal in similar triangles).
Answer:
In $\triangle DOC\, and\, \triangle BOA$ , we have
$\angle CDO=\angle ABO$ ( Alternate interior angles as $AB||CD$ )
$\angle DCO=\angle BAO$ ( Alternate interior angles as $AB||CD$ )
$\angle DOC=\angle BOA$ ( Vertically opposite angles are equal)
$\therefore \triangle DOC\, \sim \, \triangle BOA$ ( By AAA)
$\therefore \frac{DO}{BO}=\frac{OC}{OA}$ ( corresponding sides are equal)
$\Rightarrow \frac{OA }{OC} = \frac{OB }{OD }$
Hence proved.

Answer:
AD and PM are medians of triangles. So,
$BD=\frac{BC}{2}\, and\, QM=\frac{QR}{2}$
Given :
$\frac{AB}{PQ}=\frac{BC}{QR}=\frac{AD}{PM}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{AB}{PQ}=\frac{\frac{1}{2}BC}{\frac{1}{2}QR}=\frac{AD}{PM}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{AB}{PQ}=\frac{BD}{QM}=\frac{AD}{PM}$
In $\triangle ABD\, and\, \triangle PQM,$
$\frac{AB}{PQ}=\frac{BD}{QM}=\frac{AD}{PM}$
$\therefore \triangle ABD\sim \triangle PQM,$ (SSS similarity)
$\Rightarrow \angle ABD=\angle PQM$ ( Corresponding angles of similar triangles )
In $\triangle ABC\, and\, \triangle PQR,$
$\Rightarrow \angle ABD=\angle PQM$ (proved above)

Therefore, $\Delta ABC \sim \Delta PQR$ . ( SAS similarity)
Answer:
In, $\triangle ADC \, \, and\, \, \triangle BAC,$

Answer:
$\frac{AB}{PQ}=\frac{AC}{PR}=\frac{AD}{PM}$ (given)
Produce AD and PM to E and L such that AD=DE and PM=DE. Now,
join B to E,C to E,Q to L and R to L.
AD and PM are medians of a triangle, therefore
QM=MR and BD=DC
AD = DE (By construction)
PM=ML (By construction)
So, diagonals of ABEC bisecting each other at D,so ABEC is a parallelogram.
Similarly, PQLR is also a parallelogram.
Therefore, AC=BE ,AB=EC and PR=QL,PQ=LR
$\frac{AB}{PQ}=\frac{AC}{PR}=\frac{AD}{PM}$ (Given )
$\Rightarrow \frac{AB}{PQ}=\frac{BE}{QL}=\frac{2.AD}{2.PM}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{AB}{PQ}=\frac{BE}{QL}=\frac{AE}{PL}$
$\Delta ABE \sim \Delta PQL$ (SSS similarity)
$\angle BAE=\angle QPL$ ...................1 (Corresponding angles of similar triangles)
Similarity, $\triangle AEC=\triangle PLR$
$\angle CAE=\angle RPL$ ........................2
Adding equation 1 and 2,
$\angle BAE+\angle CAE=\angle QPL+\angle RPL$
$\angle CAB=\angle RPQ$ ............................3
In $\triangle ABC\, and\, \, \triangle PQR,$
$\frac{AB}{PQ}=\frac{AC}{PR}$ ( Given )
$\angle CAB=\angle RPQ$ ( From above equation 3)
$\triangle ABC\sim \triangle PQR$ ( SAS similarity)
Answer:
CD = pole
AB = tower

$\angle DCF=\angle BAE$ (Angle of sun at same place )
$\triangle ABE\, \, \sim \, \triangle CDF,$ (AA similarity)
$\frac{AB}{CD}=\frac{BE}{QL}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{AB}{6}=\frac{28}{4}$
$\Rightarrow AB=42$ cm
Hence, the height of the tower is 42 cm.
Answer:
$\Delta AB C \sim \Delta PQR$ ( Given )
$\frac{AB}{PQ}=\frac{AC}{PR}=\frac{BC}{QR}$ ............... ....1( corresponding sides of similar triangles )
$\angle A=\angle P,\angle B=\angle Q,\angle C=\angle R$ ....................................2
AD and PM are medians of triangle.So,
$BD=\frac{BC}{2}\, and\, QM=\frac{QR}{2}$ ..........................................3
From equation 1 and 3, we have
$\frac{AB}{PQ}=\frac{BD}{QM}$ ...................................................................4
In $\triangle ABD\, and\, \triangle PQM,$
$\angle B=\angle Q$ (From equation 2)
$\frac{AB}{PQ}=\frac{BD}{QM}$ (From equation 4)
$\triangle ABD\, \sim \, \triangle PQM,$ (SAS similarity)
$\frac{AB}{PQ}=\frac{BD}{QM}=\frac{AD}{PM}$
1. Understanding the relationship between sides and angles of a triangle: All triangles follow the pattern where large angles pair with extended sides, but small angles match short sides, thus creating a direct relationship between angle measures and side lengths.
2. Applying the triangle inequality property to compare sides: Understand how the rule functions, that the two connecting triangle sides should exceed the third side measure for triangle formation.
3. Determining which angle is larger based on side lengths: Strategies must be developed to understand side length ratios so that one can predict angles' relative size measurements without performing actual measurements.
4. Determining which side is longer based on angle measures: Interpretation of given angle measures allows students to determine opposite side relations, leading to improved triangle analysis abilities.
5. Logical reasoning with inequalities in triangles: Logical reasoning with inequalities in triangles: Students should apply triangle inequality properties to critical problem-solving through proofs and comparisons, and effective problem-solving methods.

Go through this ex 6.3 class 10 to get deeper understanding of related concepts.
The sum of a triangle's angels is 180 degrees.
No, similarity simply refers to the shape of the figures; it does not imply equality.
Yes, because a triangle has three angles and their sum remains 180 degrees. So, if two angels are equal then the third also becomes equal.
Yes, if all the three sides of two triangles are in proportion, then does this means the triangles are similar. By side-side-side criteria.
If the ratio becomes equal to 1 then the triangles are congruent to each other.
We can find the length of the corresponding side of the other triangle using the side ratio and the length of any side. Practice 10th class maths exercise 6.3 answers to command the concepts.

Hello Aspirant, Hope your doing great, your question was incomplete and regarding what exam your asking.
Yes, scoring above 80% in ICSE Class 10 exams typically meets the requirements to get into the Commerce stream in Class 11th under the CBSE board . Admission criteria can vary between schools, so it is advisable to check the specific requirements of the intended CBSE school. Generally, a good academic record with a score above 80% in ICSE 10th result is considered strong for such transitions.
hello Zaid,
Yes, you can apply for 12th grade as a private candidate .You will need to follow the registration process and fulfill the eligibility criteria set by CBSE for private candidates.If you haven't given the 11th grade exam ,you would be able to appear for the 12th exam directly without having passed 11th grade. you will need to give certain tests in the school you are getting addmission to prove your eligibilty.
best of luck!
According to cbse norms candidates who have completed class 10th, class 11th, have a gap year or have failed class 12th can appear for admission in 12th class.for admission in cbse board you need to clear your 11th class first and you must have studied from CBSE board or any other recognized and equivalent board/school.
You are not eligible for cbse board but you can still do 12th from nios which allow candidates to take admission in 12th class as a private student without completing 11th.
