Question 41. 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

:
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 42. Check if a triangle with sides 5 cm, 19 cm and 20 cm can be constructed.  [2 MARKS]
 Discuss Question

:
Steps: 1 Mark
Final answer: 1 Mark
Adding up the sides, taking two at a time, we get
5 cm + 19 cm = 24 cm > 20 cm
5 cm + 20 cm = 25 cm > 19 cm
19 cm + 20 cm = 39 cm > 5 cm
So we see that the sum of the pair of sides when added is greater than the third side.
Therefore, we can construct the triangle with these measurements.
Question 43. What is the criterion of SAS and ASA congruency?  [2 MARKS]
 Discuss Question

:
Each part: 1 Mark
For SAS, the criterion is as follows:
a) Lengths of any two sides.
b) The measure of the angle between these sides.
For ASA,the criterion are as follows
a)Measures of any two angles.
b) Lengths of the side between these angles.
Question 44. (a) In the figure shown below, what are the conditions on ∠NOB and ∠MPC that assure that line segment AB is parallel to the line segment CD?  [2 MARKS]
(a) In The Figure Shown Below, What Are The Conditions On âˆ...
(b) 

 
(a) In The Figure Shown Below, What Are The Conditions On âˆ...
Given line 'm' is parallel to line 'l'. Find x?
 Discuss Question

:
Each part: 1 Mark
(a)
(a) In The Figure Shown Below, What Are The Conditions On âˆ...
For the lines to be parallel, ∠NOB has to be equal to∠MPC (Alternate Interior Angles)
(b) If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal then the corresponding angles are equal.
So, x=35∘.
Question 45. Construct a right-angled triangle ABC such that side ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯BC=48 cm and hypotenuse ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯AC=50 cm.  [3 MARKS]
 Discuss Question

:
Constructions: 2 Marks
Steps: 1 Mark
Step 1: Draw a line segment ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯BC=48cm
Construct A Right-angled Triangle ABC Such That Side ¯¯¯Â...
Step 2: Draw ∠CBD=90∘ at B using protractor or compass.
Step 3: With C as centre and radius equal to 50 cm, draw an arc to cut the ray ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯BD at A and join ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯AC
ABC is the required triangle.
Question 46.


Statement 1: It is possible to construct a unique triangle when the measurements of two sides and non-included angle are given.


Statement 2: It is possible to construct a triangle when the measurements of two sides and included angle are given.


Choose the correct option.


  1.     Both the statements are false
  2.     Statement 1 is right and Statement 2 is wrong
  3.     Statement 2 is right and Statement 1 is wrong
  4.     Both the statements are correct
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> Statement 2 is right and Statement 1 is wrong
:
C

It is possible to construct a triangle when the measurements of two sides and included angle are given. (SAS rule of construction)


 


Question 47.


If ∠ACD=90∘ and CF is the angular bisector of ∠ACD, then ∠BCF= __∘.


If ∠ACD=90∘ And CF Is The Angular Bisector Of ∠ACD, Th...


 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> Statement 2 is right and Statement 1 is wrong
:
Given, ∠ACD = 90∘ and CF is the angular bisector of ∠ACD, so ∠DCF=45∘. So, BCF=135∘.
Question 48.


In the given figure, AB||CD and if ∠CFE=90∘, then ∠FEB= __∘.


In The Given Figure, AB||CD And If ∠CFE=90∘, Then ∠FEB...


 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> Statement 2 is right and Statement 1 is wrong
:

As stated in question AB||CD and if ∠CFE = 90∘, so ∠FEB is an alternate angle to ∠CFE which should be equal.
So, ∠CFE=90∘.


Question 49.


The minimum number of triangles that can be drawn if two sides and one angle has been given is __.


 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> Statement 2 is right and Statement 1 is wrong
:

The minimum number of triangles that can be drawn if two sides and one angle has been given is 0 since the angle might not be an included one.


Question 50.


Preeti is trying to draw a line parallel to PQ through a point R (not on PQ). How many arcs will she need to draw and how many times she needs to change the distance between the compass tip and the pencil tip respectively?


  1.     1 and 2
  2.     2 and 1
  3.     3 and 1
  4.     0 and 2
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 3 and 1
:
C

Steps for drawing 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.


No. of arcs drawn = 3
No. of times the distance between compass tip and pencip tip is changed = 1
