Q1 (1) Sides of triangles are given below. Determine which of them are right triangles. In the case of a right triangle, write the length of its hypotenuse. 7 cm, 24 cm, 25 cm

Answer:

In the case of a right triangle, the length of its hypotenuse is highest.

hypotenuse be h.

Taking, 7 cm, 24 cm

By Pythagoras theorem,

h^2=7^2+24^2

h^2=49+576

h^2=625

h=25 = given third side.

Hence, it is the right triangle with h=25 cm.

Q1 (2) Sides of triangles are given below. Determine which of them are right triangles. In the case of a right triangle, write the length of its hypotenuse. 3 cm, 8 cm, 6 cm

Answer:

In the case of a right triangle, the length of its hypotenuse is highest.

hypotenuse be h.

Taking, 3 cm, 6 cm

By Pythagoras theorem,

h^2=3^2+6^2

h^2=9+36

h^2=45

h=\sqrt{45}\neq 8

Hence, it is not the right triangle.

Q1 (3) Sides of triangles are given below. Determine which of them are right triangles. In the case of a right triangle, write the length of its hypotenuse. 50 cm, 80 cm, 100 cm

Answer:

In the case of a right triangle, the length of its hypotenuse is highest.

hypotenuse be h.

Taking, 50 cm, 80 cm

By Pythagoras theorem,

h^2=50^2+80^2

h^2=2500+6400

h^2=8900

h=\sqrt{8900}\neq 100

Hence, it is not a right triangle.

Q1 (4) Sides of triangles are given below. Determine which of them are right triangles. In case of a right triangle, write the length of its hypotenuse. 13 cm, 12 cm, 5 cm

Answer:

In the case of a right triangle, the length of its hypotenuse is highest.

hypotenuse be h.

Taking, 5cm, 12 cm

By Pythagoras theorem,

h^2=5^2+12^2

h^2=25+144

h^2=169

h=13 = given third side.

Hence, it is a right triangle with h=13 cm.

Q2 PQR is a triangle right angled at P and M is a point on QR such that PM \perp QR . Show that PM ^2 = QM . MR .

Answer:

1635933005578

Let \angle MPR be x

In \triangle MPR ,

\angle MRP=180 \degree-90 \degree-x

\angle MRP=90 \degree-x

Similarly,

In \triangle MPQ ,

\angle MPQ=90 \degree-\angle MPR

\angle MPQ=90 \degree-x

\angle MQP=180 \degree-90 \degree-(90 \degree-x)=x

In \triangle QMP\, and\, \triangle PMR,

\angle MPQ\, =\angle MRP

\angle PMQ\, =\angle RMP

\angle MQP\, =\angle MPR

\triangle QMP\, \sim \triangle PMR, (By AAA)

\frac{QM}{PM}=\frac{MP}{MR}

\Rightarrow PM^2=MQ\times MR

Hence proved.

Q3 (1) In Fig. 6.53, ABD is a triangle right angled at A and AC \perp BD. Show that AB^2 = BC . BD .

1635933025836

Answer:

In \triangle ADB\, and\, \triangle ABC,

\angle DAB\, =\angle ACB \, \, \, \, \, \, \, \, (Each 90 \degree)

\angle ABD\, =\angle CBA (common )

\triangle ADB\, \sim \triangle ABC (By AA)

\Rightarrow \frac{AB}{BC}=\frac{BD}{AB}

\Rightarrow AB^2=BC.BD , hence prooved .

Q3 (2) In Fig. 6.53, ABD is a triangle right angled at A and AC \perp BD. Show that AC^2 = BC . DC .

1635933077069

Answer:

Let \angle CAB be x

In \triangle ABC ,

\angle CBA=180 \degree-90 \degree-x

\angle CBA=90 \degree-x

Similarly,

In \triangle CAD ,

\angle CAD=90 \degree-\angle CAB

\angle CAD=90 \degree-x

\angle CDA=180 \degree-90 \degree-(90 \degree-x)=x

In \triangle ABC\, and\, \triangle ACD,

\angle CBA\, =\angle CAD

\angle CAB\, =\angle CDA

\angle ACB\, =\angle DCA ( Each right angle)

\triangle ABC\, \sim \triangle ,ACD (By AAA)

\frac{AC}{DC}=\frac{BC}{AC}

\Rightarrow AC^2=BC\times DC

Hence proved

Q4 ABC is an isosceles triangle right angled at C. Prove that AB^2 = 2AC ^2

Answer:

1635933142785

Given: ABC is an isosceles triangle right angled at C.

Let AC=BC

In \triangle ABC,

By Pythagoras theorem

AB^2=AC^2+BC^2

AB^2=AC^2+AC^2 (AC=BC)

AB^2=2.AC^2

Hence proved.

Q5 ABC is an isosceles triangle with AC = BC. If AB ^ 2 = 2 AC ^ 2 , prove that ABC is a right triangle.

Answer:

1635933162430

Given: ABC is an isosceles triangle with AC=BC.

In \triangle ABC,

AB^2=2.AC^2 (Given )

AB^2=AC^2+AC^2 (AC=BC)

AB^2=AC^2+BC^2

These sides satisfy Pythagoras theorem so ABC is a right-angled triangle.

Hence proved.

Q6 ABC is an equilateral triangle of side 2a. Find each of its altitudes.

Answer:

Given: ABC is an equilateral triangle of side 2a.

1635933173577

AB=BC=AC=2a

AD is perpendicular to BC.

We know that the altitude of an equilateral triangle bisects the opposite side.

So, BD=CD=a

In \triangle ADB,

By Pythagoras theorem,

AB^2=AD^2+BD^2

\Rightarrow (2a)^2=AD^2+a^2

\Rightarrow 4a^2=AD^2+a^2

\Rightarrow 4a^2-a^2=AD^2

\Rightarrow 3a^2=AD^2

\Rightarrow AD=\sqrt{3}a

The length of each altitude is \sqrt{3}a .

Q7 Prove that the sum of the squares of the sides of a rhombus is equal to the sum of the squares of its diagonals.

Answer:

1635933187293

In \triangle AOB, by Pythagoras theorem,

AB^2=AO^2+BO^2..................1

In \triangle BOC, by Pythagoras theorem,

BC^2=BO^2+CO^2..................2

In \triangle COD, by Pythagoras theorem,

CD^2=CO^2+DO^2..................3

In \triangle AOD, by Pythagoras theorem,

AD^2=AO^2+DO^2..................4

Adding equation 1,2,3,4,we get

AB^2+BC^2+CD^2+AD^2=AO^2+BO^2+BO^2+CO^2+CO^2+DO^2+AO^2+DO^2

AB^2+BC^2+CD^2+AD^2=2(AO^2+BO^2+CO^2+DO^2)

\Rightarrow AB^2+BC^2+CD^2+AD^2=2(2.AO^2+2.BO^2) (AO=CO and BO=DO)

\Rightarrow AB^2+BC^2+CD^2+AD^2=4(AO^2+BO^2)

\Rightarrow AB^2+BC^2+CD^2+AD^2=4((\frac{AC}{2})^2+(\frac{BD}{2})^2)

\Rightarrow AB^2+BC^2+CD^2+AD^2=4((\frac{AC^2}{4})+(\frac{BD^2}{4}))

\Rightarrow AB^2+BC^2+CD^2+AD^2=AC^2+BD^2

Hence proved .

Q8 (1) In Fig. 6.54, O is a point in the interior of a triangle ABC, OD \perp BC, OE \perp AC and OF \perp AB. Show that OA^2 + OB^2 + OC^2 - OD^2 - OE^2 - OF^2 = AF^2 + BD^2 + CE^2,

1635933201520

Answer:


1635933215218

Join AO, BO, CO

In \triangle AOF, by Pythagoras theorem,

OA^2=OF^2+AF^2..................1

In \triangle BOD, by Pythagoras theorem,

OB^2=OD^2+BD^2..................2

In \triangle COE, by Pythagoras theorem,

OC^2=OE^2+EC^2..................3

Adding equation 1,2,3,we get

OA^2+OB^2+OC^2=OF^2+AF^2+OD^2+BD^2+OE^2+EC^2 \Rightarrow OA^2+OB^2+OC^2-OD^2-OE^2-OF^2=AF^2+BD^2+EC^2....................4

Hence proved

Q8 (2) In Fig. 6.54, O is a point in the interior of a triangle ABC, OD \perp BC, OE \perp AC and OF \perp AB. AF^2 + BD^2 + CE^2 = AE^2 + CD^2 + BF^2.

1635933229014

Answer:

1635933270968

Join AO, BO, CO

In \triangle AOF, by Pythagoras theorem,

OA^2=OF^2+AF^2..................1

In \triangle BOD, by Pythagoras theorem,

OB^2=OD^2+BD^2..................2

In \triangle COE, by Pythagoras theorem,

OC^2=OE^2+EC^2..................3

Adding equation 1,2,3,we get

OA^2+OB^2+OC^2=OF^2+AF^2+OD^2+BD^2+OE^2+EC^2 \Rightarrow OA^2+OB^2+OC^2-OD^2-OE^2-OF^2=AF^2+BD^2+EC^2....................4

\Rightarrow (OA^2-OE^2)+(OC^2-OD^2)+(OB^2-OF^2)=AF^2+BD^2+EC^2 \Rightarrow AE^2+CD^2+BF^2=AF^2+BD^2+EC^2

Q9 A ladder 10 m long reaches a window 8 m above the ground. Find the distance of the foot of the ladder from the base of the wall.

Answer:

1635933282458

OA is a wall and AB is a ladder.

In \triangle AOB, by Pythagoras theorem

AB^2=AO^2+BO^2

\Rightarrow 10^2=8^2+BO^2

\Rightarrow 100=64+BO^2

\Rightarrow 100-64=BO^2

\Rightarrow 36=BO^2

\Rightarrow BO=6 m

Hence, the distance of the foot of the ladder from the base of the wall is 6 m.

Q11 An aeroplane leaves an airport and flies due north at a speed of 1000 km per hour. At the same time, another aeroplane leaves the same airport and flies due west at a speed of 1200 km per hour. How far apart will be the two planes after 1 1/2 hours?

Answer:

1635933311960

Distance travelled by the first aeroplane due north in 1\frac{1}{2} hours.

=1000\times \frac{3}{2}=1500 km

Distance travelled by second aeroplane due west in 1\frac{1}{2} hours.

=1200\times \frac{3}{2}=1800 km

OA and OB are the distance travelled.

By Pythagoras theorem,

AB^2=OA^2+OB^2

\Rightarrow AB^2=1500^2+1800^2

\Rightarrow AB^2=2250000+3240000

\Rightarrow AB^2=5490000

\Rightarrow AB^2=300\sqrt{61}km

Thus, the distance between the two planes is 300\sqrt{61}km .

Q12 Two poles of heights 6 m and 11 m stand on a plane ground. If the distance between the feet of the poles is 12 m, find the distance between their top

Answer:

1635933349053

Let AB and CD be poles of heights 6 m and 11 m respectively.

CP=11-6=5 m and AP= 12 m

In \triangle APC,

By Pythagoras theorem,

AP^2+PC^2=AC^2

\Rightarrow 12^2+5^2=AC^2

\Rightarrow 144+25=AC^2

\Rightarrow 169=AC^2

\Rightarrow AC=13m

Hence, the distance between the tops of two poles is 13 m.

Q13 D and E are points on the sides CA and CB respectively of a triangle ABC right angled at C. Prove that AE^2 + BD^2 = AB^2 + DE^2.

Answer:

1635933368584

In \triangle ACE, by Pythagoras theorem,

AE^2=AC^2+CE^2..................1

In \triangle BCD, by Pythagoras theorem,

DB^2=BC^2+CD^2..................2

From 1 and 2, we get

AC^2+CE^2+BC^2+CD^2=AE^2+DB^2..................3

In \triangle CDE, by Pythagoras theorem,

DE^2=CD^2+CE^2..................4

In \triangle ABC, by Pythagoras theorem,

AB^2=AC^2+CB^2..................5

From 3,4,5 we get

DE^2+AB^2=AE^2+DB^2

Q14 The perpendicular from A on side BC of a \Delta ABC intersects BC at D such that DB = 3 CD (see Fig. 6.55). Prove that 2 AB^2 = 2 AC^2 + BC^2.

1635933387695

Answer:

In \triangle ACD, by Pythagoras theorem,

AC^2=AD^2+DC^2

AC^2-DC^2=AD^2..................1

In \triangle ABD, by Pythagoras theorem,

AB^2=AD^2+BD^2

AB^2-BD^2=AD^2.................2

From 1 and 2, we get

AC^2-CD^2=AB^2-DB^2..................3

Given : 3DC=DB, so

CD=\frac{BC}{4}\, \, and\, \, BD=\frac{3BC}{4}........................4

From 3 and 4, we get

AC^2-(\frac{BC}{4})^2=AB^2-(\frac{3BC}{4})^2

AC^2-(\frac{BC^2}{16})=AB^2-(\frac{9BC^2}{16})

16AC^2-BC^2=16AB^2- 9BC^2

16AC^2=16AB^2- 8BC^2

\Rightarrow 2AC^2=2AB^2- BC^2

2 AB^2 = 2 AC^2 + BC^2.

Hence proved.

Q15 In an equilateral triangle ABC, D is a point on side BC such that BD = 1/3 BC. Prove that 9 AD^2 = 7 AB^2

Answer:

1635933424958

Given: An equilateral triangle ABC, D is a point on side BC such that BD = 1/3 BC.

To prove : 9 AD^2 = 7 AB^2

Let AB=BC=CA=a

Draw an altitude AE on BC.

So, BE=CE=\frac{a}{2}

In \triangle AEB, by Pythagoras theorem

AB^2=AE^2+BE^2

a^2=AE^2+(\frac{a}{2})^2

\Rightarrow a^2-(\frac{a^2}{4})=AE^2

\Rightarrow (\frac{3a^2}{4})=AE^2

\Rightarrow AE=(\frac{\sqrt{3}a}{2})

Given : BD = 1/3 BC.

BD=\frac{a}{3}

DE=BE=BD=\frac{a}{2}-\frac{a}{3}=\frac{a}{6}

In \triangle ADE, by Pythagoras theorem,

AD^2=AE^2+DE^2

\Rightarrow AD^2=(\frac{\sqrt{3}a}{2})^2+(\frac{a}{6})^2

\Rightarrow AD^2=(\frac{3a^2}{4})+(\frac{a^2}{36})

\Rightarrow AD^2=(\frac{7a^2}{9})

\Rightarrow AD^2=(\frac{7AB^2}{9})

\Rightarrow 9AD^2=7AB^2

Q16 In an equilateral triangle, prove that three times the square of one side is equal to four times the square of one of its altitudes.

Answer:

1635933437532

Given: An equilateral triangle ABC.

Let AB=BC=CA=a

Draw an altitude AE on BC.

So, BE=CE=\frac{a}{2}

In \triangle AEB, by Pythagoras theorem

AB^2=AE^2+BE^2

a^2=AE^2+(\frac{a}{2})^2

\Rightarrow a^2-(\frac{a^2}{4})=AE^2

\Rightarrow (\frac{3a^2}{4})=AE^2

\Rightarrow 3a^2=4AE^2

\Rightarrow 4.(altitude)^2=3.(side)^2

Q17 Tick the correct answer and justify : In \Delta ABC AB = 6 \sqrt 3 cm, AC = 12 cm and BC = 6 cm.
The angle B is :
(A) 120°

(B) 60°

(C) 90°

(D) 45°

Answer:

In \Delta ABC AB = 6 \sqrt 3 cm, AC = 12 cm and BC = 6 cm.

AB^2+BC^2=108+36

=144

=12^2

=AC^2

It satisfies the Pythagoras theorem.

Hence, ABC is a right-angled triangle and right-angled at B.

Option C is correct.
