The triangle is not a right-angled triangle. It can be checked by a protractor and also by using Pythagoras Theorem. The sides do not satisfy the theorem.

Each part: 2 Marks
(a) To construct: A line parallel to given line when the perpendicular line is also given.

(a) Draw A Line L. Draw A Perpendicular On L At Any Point. O...
Draw a line l and take a point P on it.
At point P, draw a perpendicular line n.
Take PX = 4 cm on line n.
At point X, again draw the line m.
(b) Since both the angles are alternate interior angles, they will be equal to each other. Also, since both arcs are drawn with the same radius, they are part of two equal circles. This means that they both have same shape and size. Thus, the two arcs DM and FG are congruent which makes their lengths equal.
Question 94.

To construct: A line parallel to given line by using ruler and compass.
Steps of construction:
1) Draw a line segment AB and take a point C outside AB.
2) Take any point D on AB and join C to D.
3) With D as the centre and taking convenient radius, draw an arc cutting AB at E and CD at F.
4) With C as the centre and same radius as in step 3, draw an arc GH cutting CD at I.
5) With the same arc EF, draw the equal arc cutting GH at J.
6) Join JC to draw a line l.
 
Question 95.


Check if the following triangles can be constructed.
a) 80 cm, 5 cm, 5 cm
b) 13 cm, 6 cm, 7 cm  [4 MARKS]


 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. ->
:
Each part: 2 Marks
(a) Adding up the sides by taking two at a time, we get:
5 cm + 5 cm = 10 cm < 80 cm
80 cm + 5 cm = 85 cm > 5 cm
So we see that the sum of one pair of sides when added is not greater than the third side.
Therefore, we cannot draw a triangle with these measurements.
(b) Adding up the sides by taking two at a time, we get
13 cm + 6 cm = 19 cm > 7 cm
13 cm + 7 cm = 20 cm > 6 cm
6 cm + 7 cm = 13 cm = 13 cm
So in each case, the sum of two sides is equal to the third side.
Hence, this triangle cannot be constructed.
Question 96.


If the distance between any two lines is always constant then the lines:


  1.     are parallel to each other
  2.     may not be parallel to each other
  3.     may be parallel to each other
  4.     are perpendicular to each other
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> may not be parallel to each other
:
B and C

If the distance between any two lines is always constant then the lines may or may not be parallel. If the lines lie in the same plane, then they are parallel and if they are not, they are not parallel.


Question 97.


Pavan tried to draw a line parallel to a given line, 'l'. Few steps are shown below. What will be the next step?


Step 1: Mark a point A, not on the line 'l'.
Step 2: Mark point B on line 'l'.
Step 3: Draw line segment joining points A and B.
Step 4: Draw an arc with B as the centre, such that it intersects line 'l' at D and AB at E.


  1.     Draw another arc with the same radius and A as the centre, such that it intersects AB at F
  2.     Draw another arc with B as the centre and distance DE as the radius
  3.     Draw another arc with some other radius and A as the centre
  4.     Draw another arc with B as the centre and distance AB as the radius

Answer: Option A. -> Draw another arc with the same radius and A as the centre, such that it intersects AB at F
:
A

Following are the steps to draw a line parallel to a given line:


Step 1: Mark a point A, not on the line 'l'.
Step 2: Mark point B on line 'l'.
Step 3: Draw line segment joining points A and B.
Step 4: Draw an arc with B as the centre, such that it intersects line 'l' at D and AB at E.
Step 5: Draw another arc with the same radius and A as the centre, such that it intersects AB at F.  
Step 6: Draw another arc with F as the centre and distance DE as the radius.
Step 7: Mark the point of intersections of this arc and the previous arc as G.
Step 8: Draw line 'm' passing through points A and G.

 


Line 'm' is the required parallel line.


Question 98.


Ram drew a line segment AB of length 3cm and another line segment CB of length 4cm which is perpendicular to line segment AB. What is the length of the third side of the triangle?


  1.     5cm
  2.     6cm
  3.     2cm
  4.     1cm
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 5cm
:
A

The triangle will be a right angled triangle as CB is perpendicular to AB .So, the third side can be easily calculated by using Pythagoras theorem.

When two lines intersect each other, four angles are formed. The pair of angles which lie on the opposite sides of the point of intersection are called vertically opposite angle. If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal:


In The Figure Shown, The Two Lines Are Parallel To Each Othe...


(i) Alternate interior angles are equal i.e., ∠2 = ∠8 and ∠3 = ∠5.


(ii) Alternate exterior angles are equal i.e., ∠1 = ∠7 and ∠4 = ∠6.


(iii) Corresponding angles are equal i.e., ∠1 = ∠5, ∠4 = ∠8, ∠2 = ∠6 and ∠3 = ∠7.


(iv) Co-interior angles are supplementary i.e., ∠2 + ∠5 = 180∘ and ∠3 + ∠8 =180∘


∠1 = ∠8 is incorrect.


Question 100.


In the shown figure, line segment BD is angle bisector of ∠ABC. Line segment BE is angle bisector of ∠ABD. Then ∠ABC= __ ×∠ABE
