Solutions
Section-A

Advertisements

Solution 1.
No. According to Euclid’s division lemma, a=3q + r, where 0 ≤ r < 3 and r is an integer. Therefore, the values of r can be 0, 1 or 2. (1)

Solution 2.

Solution 3.

Solution 4.
Given, A + B = 90° and sec A = [latex s=2]\frac { 5 }{ 3} [/latex]
⇒ sec(90°-B) =[latex s=2]\frac { 5 }{ 3} [/latex] (∵ A + B = 90°)
∴ cosec B = [latex s=2]\frac { 5 }{ 3} [/latex] (1)

Advertisements

Solution 5.
a1 = 3y- 1, a2 = 3y+ 5, a3 = 5y+ 1
∴ a2 – a1 = 3 – a1
⇒(3y + 5) – (3y- 1) = (5y + 1) – (3y +5) ⇒6 = 2y-4 (1)
⇒ 2y=10 ⇒ y=5

Solution 6.
Since, PQ = QR ⇒ Q is mid-point of PR.
∴ Using mid-point formula,
1 = [latex s=2]\frac { 6+x }{ 2} [/latex] ⇒ 6 + x = 2 ⇒x = -4. (1)

Advertisements

Section-B

Solution 7.
The Prime factorisation of 66 & 486 gives
66 = 2 × 3 × 11
486 = 2 × 3 ×3 ×3 × 3 × 3= 2 × 35 (1/2)
∴The LCM of these two integer is
2 × 35 × 11 = 5346 (1/2)
HCF (66,486) = [latex]\frac { 66\times 486 }{ LCM(66,486) } =\frac { 66\times 486 }{ 5346 } [/latex] = 6 (1)

Advertisements

Solution 8.
Given : a5 + a9 = 30
a25 = 3a8
Now, a + 4d + a+8d = 30
⇒ 2a+ 12d = 30
⇒ a + 6d = 15 …(i) (1/2)
and, a + 24d=3a + 21d ⇒2a-3d = 0 …(ii) (1/2)
From eqs. (i) and (ii)

Now, put d = 2 in eq. (i)
a+ 12=15 ⇒ a = 3
Required A.P. = 3,5,7,………….. (1/2)

Advertisements

Solution 9.
Let the number of blue balls = x
∴ Total number ofballs = 5 + x
P (blue ball) = [latex s=2]\frac { x }{ 5+x } [/latex] (1/2)
P (red ball) = [latex s=2]\frac { 5 }{ 5+x } [/latex] (1/2)
Given that P (blue) = 2 × p (red)
[latex s=2]\frac { x }{ 5+x } [/latex] = 2 × [latex s=2]\frac { 5 }{ 5+x } [/latex]
⇒ [latex s=2]\frac { x }{ 5+x } [/latex] = [latex s=2]\frac { 10 }{ 5+x } [/latex]
On solving we get x = 10 (1)

Solution 10.

P is the mid-point ofAB
∴ x+1=4⇒x = 3 [By Mid-Point formula]
y-4 = -2 ⇒ y = 2
⇒ B(3,2) (1/2)
Similarly,
z + 1 = 0 ⇒z = -1
and t – 4 = -2 ⇒t = 2
⇒ C(—1,2)
∴ Area ∆ABC (1/2)
= [latex s=2]\frac { 1 }{ 2 } [/latex][1(2 – 2)+3(2+4)-1(-4-2)] ⇒[latex s=2]\frac { 1 }{ 2 } [/latex] ×24 = 12 sq units (1)

Advertisements

Solution 11.
Since, (3, a) lies on the line 2x – 3y = 5
So, 2 × 3 – 3a = 5 (1)
⇒ 6 —3a = 5 ⇒ a= [latex s=2]\frac { 1 }{ 3 } [/latex] (1)

Solution 12.
Total number of possible outcomes when two dice are thrown simultaneously =36 (1/2)
Sum of the numbers appearing on the dice
is a prime number i.e., 2,3,5,7 and 11
So, the possible outcomes are (1,1), (1,2), (2, 1), (1,4), (2,3), (3,2), (4,1), (1,6), (2,5),
(3,4), (4,3), (5,2), (6,1), (5,6) and (6,5).
Number of possible outcomes = 15 (1)
∴ Required probability = [latex s=2]\frac { 15 }{ 36 } [/latex] = [latex s=2]\frac { 5 }{ 12 } [/latex] (1/2)

Section-C

Solution 13.
Given integers are 81 and 237 such that 81 < 237.
Applying Euclid’s division lemma to 81 and 237, we get

Since the remainder 75 ≠ 0. So, consider the divisor 81 and the remainder 75 and apply division lemma to get

The remainder at this stage is zero. So, the last divisor i.e. 3 is the HCF of 81 and 237.
To represent the HCF as a linear combination of the given two numbers, we start from the last but one step and successively eliminate the previous remainders as follows :
From (iii), we have
3 = 75 – 6 × 12
⇒3 = 75-(81 – 75 × 1) ×12
[Substituting 6 = 81 -75 × 1 obtained from (ii)]
⇒ 3 = 75 – 12 × 81 + 12 × 75
⇒ 3 = 13 × 75 – 12 × 81
⇒ 3 = 13 × (237-81 × 2)-12 × 81 [Substituting 75 = 237 – 81 × 2 obtained from (i)] (1)
⇒ 3 = 13 × 237 – 26 × 81 – 12 × 81
⇒ 3 = 13 × 237 – 26 × 81 – 12 × 81
⇒ 3 = 13 × 237-38 × 81
⇒ 3 = 237 × + 81 y, where x = 13 and
y = -38 ….v (1)

Solution 16.
Let the radius of spherical marble = 0.7 cm (1/2)
Volumeofl marble =[latex s=2]\frac { 4 }{ 3 } [/latex]πr3 = [latex s=2]\frac { 4 }{ 3 } [/latex]π(0.7)3 cm3 (1/2)
Volume of 150 marble = 200π(0.7)3 cm3 (1/2)
Let h be the rise in the height of water
∴ Volume of water raised = Volume of 150 marbles (1/2)
So, π × 72 × h = 200π(0.7)3 ⇒ h = [latex]\frac { 200\times 7\times 7\times 7 }{ 7\times 7\times 10\times 10\times 10 } [/latex]
⇒ h = 1.4 cm (1)
OR
Let the radius ofhemisphere = r
Now, volume ofhemisphere = [latex s=2]\frac { 2 }{ 3 } [/latex] πr3 (1/2)
Surface area ofhemisphere = 3πr2 (1/2)
A.T.Q, volume ofhemisphere = surface area ofhemisphere (1/2)
⇒ [latex s=2]\frac { 2 }{ 3 } [/latex] πr3 = 3πr2 ⇒r= [latex s=2]\frac { 9 }{ 2 } [/latex]units (1)

Solution 20.
Let OP meet the circle at Q. Join AQ. As OP is equal to the diameter of the circle and OQ is the radius, so OQ = QP i.e. Q is the mid-point of OP. Since PA is tangent to the circle at A and OA is its radius, OA ⊥L AP i.e. ∠OAP = 90°.
In right triangle OAP, Q is mid-point of hypotenuse,

∴AQ = OQ = QP
Also OA = OQ (radii of same circle)
⇒ OA=OQ = AQ ⇒ ∆OAQ is equilateral
⇒ ∠AOQ = 60° ⇒ ∠AOP = 60°. (1)
In ∆OAP, ∠OPA + ∠AOP + ∠OAP =180°
⇒ ∠OPA+60°+ 90° = 180°
⇒ ∠OPA= 30°
⇒ ∠APB = 60° (∴OP is bisector of ZAPB) (1)
Also PA = PB ⇒ ∠PAB = ∠PBA.
In ∆PAB, ∠PAB + ∠PBA+ ∠APB = 180°
⇒ 2 ∠PAB+ 60° =180°
⇒ ∠PAB=60°
⇒ Triangle ABP is equilateral. (1)

Solution 21.
∴Letx2 = u, y2 = v
⇒ 2u + 3v=35 and [latex]\frac { u }{ 2 } +\frac { v }{ 3 } [/latex] = 5 (1/2)
⇒ 2u + 3v = 35 …(i)
⇒ 3u + 2v = 30 …(ii) (1/2)
Multiply (i) by 3 and (ii) by 2 and subtracting (ii) from (i), we have
⇒ 6u – 6u + 9v – 4v= 105 – 60
⇒ 5v = 45 ⇒v = 9
Substituting v = 9 in (1), we get 2u + 2 7 = 3 5
2u = 8 => u = 4 ⇒x2 = 4, y2 = 9
∴ x = ± 2,y = ± 3 is the required solution. (1)

Suppose AB be a tower and there are two points C and D at the distances of 4 m and 16 m from the foot of the tower respectively

Since, the angles of elevation from C and D of the top of the tower are complementary.
So,e,+e2 = 90° …(i) (1/2)
Let the height of the tower be h.
Then, from equation (i), tan (θ1 + θ2) = tan 90° (1/2)
⇒ [latex]\frac { \tan { { \theta }_{ 1 } } +\tan { { \theta }_{ 2 } } }{ 1-\tan { { \theta }_{ 1 } } \tan { { \theta }_{ 2 } } } =\frac { 1 }{ 0 } [/latex]
⇒ 1- tan θ1 tan θ2 =0 ⇒ tan θ1 tan θ2 = 1 (1)
⇒ [latex]\frac { h }{ 4 } \times \frac { h }{ 16 } [/latex] = 1 ⇒ h<2 = 64 ⇒ h = 8 m (∵Height cannot be negative) (1)
Hence, the height of the tower is 8 m.
