Question 51.


If a diagonal of a rectangle is inclined to one side of the rectangle at 35, then the acute angle between the diagonals is _____.

C

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  AOD or BOC
In ΔAOB
OA = OB
Diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other
OBA=OAB=35 (As the angles opposite to equal sides are equal)
Applying exterior angle property in ΔAOB
AOD=OBA+OAB
AOD=35°+35°
AOD=70°


Question 52.


If opposite angles of a parallelogram are supplementary, then the parallelogram is _____ .


  1.     Trapezium
  2.     Rectangle
  3.     Rhombus
  4.     Hexagon

B

If Opposite Angles Of A Parallelogram Are Supplementary, The...We know that,
the opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal.
ie.  A= C and  B= D ...(i)
If they are supplementary as well, then
 A+ C=180 
from (i),
 A+ A=180 
2 A=180 
 A=90 
Similarly,
 C=90 
It means that each angle will be equal to 90.
A parallelogram whose internal angles are all 90 is a rectangle. Thus, the figure will be a rectangle.


Question 53.


The sum of external angles of a quadrilateral is equal to the sum of its internal angles.


  1.     True
  2.     False
  3.     90
  4.     140
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> True
:
A

The sum of internal angles of a quadrilateral is 360. The sum of external angles of any polygon, irrespective of the number of sides is 360. Hence, the given statement is true.


Question 54.


In the given figure, ABCD is a parallelogram. From the given options, select the values of  x and y.


In The Given Figure, ABCD Is A parallelogram. From The Give...


  1.     x=45
  2.     y=105
  3.     y=30
  4.     x=75

A and C

In The Given Figure, ABCD Is A parallelogram. From The Give...
We know that the opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal.
So,
(3x10)=(x+80)3xx=80+102x=90x=45
Also, the consecutive angles of a parallelogram are supplementary.
So,
B+C=180(3x10)+(y+25)=180(3×45)10+y+25=18013510+y+25=180125+y+25=180y=18012525y=30


Question 55.


If the ratio of sides (taken in order) of a quadrilateral is a:b:b:a, then it is a 


  1.     kite
  2.     cyclic quadrilateral
  3.     parallelogram
  4.     square
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> kite
:
A

Here, the ratio is given to be a:b:b:a.
If The Ratio Of Sides (taken In Order) Of A Quadrilateral Is...If KLMJ is a quadrilateral, the sides are in the ratio a:b:b:a.
Let KL = a, LM = b, MJ = b and JK = a.
Here, JK and LM are equal and LM and MJ are equal.
We know that, kite is a quadrilateral with two pairs of adjacent sides equal in length.
The data given implies that we have two disjoint pairs of adjacent sides which are equal i.e. there are two pairs of adjacent sides which are equal and the opposite sides are not equal. 
This is the very definition of a kite.


Question 56.


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 side is 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 and QR=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.

If BDEF and FDCE are parallelograms, then 


___  lies equidistant to points B and C. (Fill in one among A/F/E/D).
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> diagonals of PQRS are perpendicular and bisect each other
:

If BDEF And FDCE Are Parallelograms, Then ___  Lies Equidi...
Since BDEF and FDCE are parallelograms,
BD = FE and DC = FE
Hence, we can see that BD is equal to DC and so, D is the mid-point of BC.
