Question 51.


Preeti told Pavani that if the alternate interior angles are equal then lines need not be parallel. Is Preeti's statement true or false?


  1.     True
  2.     False
  3.     3 and 1
  4.     0 and 2
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:
B

If two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal:


Preeti Told Pavani That If The Alternate Interior Angles Are...


(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= 180and 3 +8 =180.
Hence, if the alternate angles are equal then the lines are parallel.


Question 52.


Akash was given lengths of two sides and the measure of an angle which is not included between the two sides. But still he was able to draw the triangle. So what should be the angle that was given? (in degrees)

Answer: Option B. -> False
:

If he was able to draw a triangle with two sides and an angle which is not included, then the triangle should be a right angled triangle.


Question 53.


Kushagra is drawing a railway track on paper as a part of his project. He asked Sarosh to draw a line parallel to the given line. Sarosh said that we can only construct a line parallel to the given line using alternate angles concept. Is this true?


  1.     True
  2.     False
  3.     3 and 1
  4.     0 and 2
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:
B

We can construct a line parallel to a given line by using alternate angles as well as corresponding angles concept. So, the statement is false.


If two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal:


Kushagra Is Drawing A Railway Track On Paper as A Part Of H...


(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
  A line can be constructed parallel to a given line by making any of the above mentioned pairs of angles equal.


Question 54.


Harman told Kushagra that only one line parallel to a given line can be drawn through a point which is not on the line. State whether Harman's statement is true or false.


  1.     True
  2.     False
  3.     3 and 1
  4.     0 and 2
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> True
:
A

We can only draw one line parallel to a given line passing through a point that is not on the line.


Question 55.


Goutham has been asked to draw a triangle with three lengths given to him. He hasn't checked the given lengths and promised that he will draw the triangle thinking that a triangle can always be constructed with any three lengths. Is it true that a triangle can always be constructed with any three lengths?


  1.     True
  2.     False
  3.     3 and 1
  4.     0 and 2
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:
B

The triangle inequality states that for any triangle, the sum of the lengths of any two of its sides must be greater than the length of the third side. ​We, thus, cannot construct a triangle with any three lengths.


Question 56.


A triangle is constructed by joining the minute's hand position when it was showing 12 and 3. Find the angle between the positions and what type of triangle is it?  [1 MARK]


 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:

Angle: 0.5 Mark
Type: 0.5 Mark
The angle between the two hands is 90 degrees.
It is an isosceles right-angled triangle.


Question 57.


The sides of the triangle are 3 m, 5 m and 9 m. Construct a triangle.  [2 MARKS]


 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:

Correct answer: 2 Marks
With the given lengths, a triangle cannot be constructed because the sum of two sides of a triangle is less than the third side.
3 + 5 < 9
5 + 9 > 3

3 + 9 > 5


Question 58.


Construct a triangle whose sides are AB = 5 m, BC = 9 m and CAB=60.  [2 MARKS]


 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:

Steps: 1 Mark
Construction: 1 Mark
Draw a line segment AB = 5 m

Draw AC making an angle of 60 degrees with AB.
Taking B as centre, draw a circle of radius 9 m.
The point where the circle meets the line will be the other point of the triangle.

Question 59.


Given a line l and a point M on it, draw a perpendicular MP to l where MP = 5.2 cm and a line q parallel to l through P.    [2 MARKS]


 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:

Steps: 1 Mark
Construction: 1 Mark
Given A Line L And A Point M On It, Draw A Perpendicular MP ...
 


Steps of construction:
(i) Draw a line l.
(ii) Take a point M on it.
(iii) Draw an angle of 90 at M with l which is perpendicular to l at M.
(iv) With M as centre and radius 5.2 cm, draw an arc which intersects the above perpendicular at point P. MP is the required perpendicular.
(v) At P, draw an angle of 90 with PM and make a line q.
Line q is the required line parallel to line l.


Question 60.


Construct a triangle, given that the lengths of its two sides are 3 m and 8 m and the third side makes an angle of 60 degrees with the 3 m side.  [3 MARKS]


 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:

Steps: 1 Mark
Construction: 2 Marks
Draw a line with given length of 3 m, let it be AB.

Draw a line making 60 degrees with the line AB, let it be AC.
With B as centre, draw a circle of radius 8 m. 
The drawn arc meets the line AC at c.
Join all the points and it will form a triangle with side 3 m and 8 m with an angle of 60.
