If A Diagonal Of A Rectangle Is Inclined To One Side Of The ...
Given: In rectangle ABCD,
BAO=35°
To find: Angle between the diagonals AODorBOC
In ΔAOB
OA = OB
Diagonals of a rectangle bisecteach other
OBA=OAB=35(As the angles opposite to equal sides are equal)
Applying exterior angle property inΔAOB
AOD=OBA+OAB
AOD=35°+35°
AOD=70°
Question 12. The quadrilateral formed by joining the mid-points of consecutive sides of a rectangle ABCD, taken in order, is a rhombus.
  1.    PQRS is a rectangle
  2.    PQRS is a parallelogram
  3.    diagonals of PQRS are perpendicular and bisect each other
  4.    diagonals of PQRS are equal and bisect each other
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> diagonals of PQRS are perpendicular and bisect each other
:
C
Let ABCD be a rectangle such as AB = CD and BC = DA. P,Q,R and S are the midpoints of the sides AB, BC, CD and DA respectively.
The Quadrilateral Formed By Joining The Mid-points Of Consec...
Let us join AC and BD
In ΔABC,
P and Q are the mid-points of AB and BC respectively.
PQ || AC and PQ = 12AC (Midpoint theorem)...........(1)
Similarly in Δ ADC,
SR || AC and SR=12AC (Midpoint theorem)..........(2)
Clearly, PQ || SR and PQ = SR
Since, in quadrilateral PQRS, one pair of opposite sideis equal and parallel to each other, it is parallelogram
PS || QR and PS = QR (opposite sides of parallelogram).........(3)
In Δ BCD, Q and R are the mid-points of sides BC and CD respectively.
QR || BD andQR=12BD(Midpoint theorem)..........(4)
However, the diagonals of a rectangle are equal.
AC = BD ...........(5)
By using equation (1), (2), (3), (4), (5), we obtain
PQ = QR = SR = PS
Therefore, PQRS is a rhombus and hence, the given statement is true.
Question 13. A trapezium is a parallelogram.
  1.    True
  2.    False
  3.    30∘, 60∘, 90∘, 120∘​
  4.    10∘, 20∘, 30∘, 40∘​
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:
B
In a trapezium only one pair of opposite sides areparallel.
Ina parallelogram, both pairs of opposite sides are equal and parallel.
Therefore a trapezium is not a parallelogram.
Question 14. The quadrilateral formed by joining the mid points of the sides of a quadrilateral, in order, is a __.
 Discuss Question

:
By joining the mid points of the sides of a quadrilateral, another quadrilateral is formed whose opposite sides will be equal and parallel. Hence the quadrilateral formed is aparallelogram.
Question 15. The three angles of a quadrilateral are 75, 90 and 75. The quadrilateral can be a parallelogram.
  1.    True
  2.    False
  3.    Parallelogram
  4.    All of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> False
:
B
Sum of all angles of a quadrilateral is 360.
Fourthangle=360(75+90+75)=120
Since the pairs of opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal, this quadrilateral cannot be a parallelogram since it has three different angles and only one pair of equal angles.
Question 16. Square, rectangle and rhombus are all parallelograms.
  1.    True
  2.    False
  3.    30∘, 60∘, 90∘, 120∘​
  4.    10∘, 20∘, 30∘, 40∘​
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> True
:
A
A parallelogram is a quadrilateral whose both pairs of opposite sides are equal and parallel. Since the pairs of opposite sides equal and parallel in a square, rhombus and rectangle,they are all parallelograms.
Question 17. Which of the following is not a quadrilateral?
  1.    Square
  2.    Circle
  3.    Rhombus
  4.    Trapezium
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> Circle
:
B
A quadrilateral is a polygon with four sides and four vertices.
A quadrilateral has four sides, four angles and four vertices. Square, trapezium and rhombus are quadrilaterals. A circle can be approximated as a polygon with infinite sides but it is not a polygon.
It is because a polygon must have straight edges (sides). A circle doesn't have straight sides.
Question 18. The sum of angles of a kite is:
  1.    180∘​
  2.    360∘​
  3.    480∘​
  4.    90∘​
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 360∘​
:
B
The Sum Of Angles Of A Kite is:Akite is a quadrilateral.
We know that,the sum of the angles of a quadrilateralis equal to 360°.
The sum of the angles of a kiteis also equal to 360°.
Question 19. If both pairs of opposite sides of a quadrilateral are parallel, then it is called:
  1.    Triangle
  2.    Circle
  3.    Parallelogram
  4.    All of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> Parallelogram
:
C
A parallelogram is a quadrilateral whose both pairs of opposite sides are parallel.
Question 20. The angles of a quadrilateral are in the ratio 1: 2 : 3 : 4. The angles of the quadrilateral are respectively ____.
  1.    144∘, 108∘, 60∘, 48∘
  2.    36∘, 72∘, 108∘, 144∘​
  3.    30∘, 60∘, 90∘, 120∘​
  4.    10∘, 20∘, 30∘, 40∘​
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 36∘, 72∘, 108∘, 144∘​
:
B
Let the smallest angle of quadrilateral be x.
Then, the angles of the quadrilateral will be x, 2x, 3x and4x.
Sum of the angles of a quadrilateral is 360.
360=x+2x+3x+4x
10x=360
x=36,2x=72,3x=108and4x=144
