Questions and Answers

Q 1 - In which quadrant does the point (4, - 6) lies?

A - First

B - second

C - third

D - fourth

Answer : D

Explanation

The point (4,-6) lies in 4th quadrant

Q 2 - The separation of the point p (8, - 6) from the beginning is:

A - 2 units

B - 14 units

C - 10 units

D - none of these

Answer : C

Explanation

Op = √ (8-0)2+ (-6-0)2 = √64+ 36    = √100 =10 unit

Q 3 - The focuses A (0,6),B(- 5,3) and C(3,1) are the vertices of a triangle which is:

A - Isosceles

B - equilateral

C - scalene

D - right calculated

Answer : A

Explanation

AB2= (-5-0) 2+ (3-6) 2= (-5) 2+ (-3) 2= (25+9) = 34
BC2= (3+5) 2+ (1-3) 2= (8) 2+ (-2) 2= 64+4 = 68
AC2= (3-0) 2+ (1-6) 2= (3) 2+ (-5) 2= 9+25 = 34
∴ AB= AC. Hence, ∆ABC is isosceles.

Q 4 - The focuses A (- 3, 0), B (1, - 3) and C (4, 1) are the vertices of

A - An equilateral triangle

B - an isosceles right angle triangle

C - a scalene triangle

D - None of these

Answer : B

Explanation

AB2= (1+3) 2+ (-3-0) 2= 16+9= 25
BC2= (4-1) 2+ (1+3) 2=9+16= 25
AC2= (4+3) 2+ (1-0) 2= 49+1= 50
Clearly, AB= BC and AB2+BC2= AC2
∴ ∆ABC is ab isosceles right angle triangle.

Q 5 - In the event that the focuses A (2, 3), B (5, ℏ) and C (6, 7) are collinear, then ℏ=?

A - 4

B - 6

C - - 3/2

D - 11/4

Answer : B

Explanation

Here x₁=2, x₂= 5, Xᴈ = 6, y₁ =3, y₂= ℏ and Yᴈ = 7
 ∆ = 1/2 [x₁(y₂-Yᴈ) +x₂(Yᴈ-y₁) +Xᴈ (y₁-y₂)]
 <= > 2(ℏ-7) +5(7-3) +6(3-ℏ) =0   4ℏ= 24  ℏ=6

Q 6 - Two vertices of a ∆abc are A (6, 4) and B (- 2, 2) and its centroid is G (3, 4). The directions of C are:

A - (4, 5)

B - (5, 3)

C - (5, 6)

D - (- 3, 3)

Answer : C

Explanation

  Let the co- ordinates of C be (a, b). Then,
 1/3 (6-2+a) =3 and 1/3 (4+2+b) =4
 4+a=9 and 6+b=12  ⇒ a=5, b= 6

Q 7 - The slop of a flat line is

A - 0

B - 1

C - -1

D - none of these

Answer : A

Explanation

The slop of a horizontal line is m= tan ℴ =0

Q 8 - On the off chance that for a line m= tan ℴ>0, then

A - ℴ= 0

B - ℴ is intense

C - ℴ= 90⁰

D - ℴ is inhumane

Answer : C

Explanation

m tan ℴ>0 ⇒ℴ is acute.

Q 9 - The slop of a line going through the focuses A (3, - 1) and B (3, 2) is:

A - 0

B - 3

C - not characterized

D - none of these

Answer : C

Explanation

Slop = (y₁ ?y₂)/( x₁-x₂) = (2+1)/ (3-3) = 3/0, which is not defined

Q 10 - The lines 3x-4y+6 =0 and 4x+3y-10 =0 are mutually.

A - Parallel

B - perpendicular

C - opposite

D - none of these

Answer : D

Explanation

3x-4y+6 = 0 ⇒ 4y = 3x+6 ⇒ y =3x/4 +3/2
 4x+3y -10 =0 ⇒ 3y= -4x+10 ⇒ y = -4x/3 + 10/3
 ∴ m₁ = 3/4 and m₂ = -4/3. So, m₁m₂= -1
