Questions and Answers

Q 1 - In the given figure , ∠POS = 90⁰. What Is the measure of ∠ROQ?

q 19

A - 30⁰

B - 45⁰

C - 90⁰

D - 180⁰

Answer : C

Explanation

∠ROQ = ∠POS (vert. opp. ∠s) = 90⁰.

Answer : A

Explanation

Two lines intersect at a point.

Q 3 - In the given figure L₁ || L₂ and ∠A = 65⁰. Then ∠C= ?

q 26

A - 110⁰

B - 115⁰

C - 120⁰

D - 135⁰

Answer : B

Explanation

∠B = ∠A = 65⁰ (corr. ∠s).
∴ ∠B +∠C= 180⁰ ⇒ 65⁰ +∠C = 180⁰ ⇒ ∠C = ( 180⁰ - 65⁰) = 115⁰.

Q 4 - In A ∆ABC ,∠A+∠B=65⁰ and∠B +∠C = 140⁰ . Then ∠B =?

A - 25⁰

B - 35⁰

C - 40⁰

D - 45⁰

Answer : A

Explanation

(∠A+∠B) +(∠B+∠C) =(65⁰+140⁰)= 205⁰
⇒ (∠A+∠B+∠C) +∠B =205⁰ ⇒ 180⁰ +∠B=205⁰
⇒ ∠B =(205-180)⁰ =25⁰ 

Q 5 - The angle of a triangle are 3x⁰, (2x-7)⁰ and (4x-11)⁰. The value of x is :

A - 18⁰

B - 20⁰

C - 22⁰

D - 30⁰

Answer : A

Explanation

The sum of the angle of a triangle is 180⁰.
∴ 3x = 2x - 7 + 4x -11 = 180 ⇒ 9x =162 ⇒ x = 18.
Hence, x = 18.

Q 6 - The perimeters of two similar triangles ∆ ABC and∆ PQR are 36cm and 24 cm . If PQ= 10cm, Then AB=?

A - 20/3 cm

B - 10 √6/3 cm

C - 15cm

D - 200/3 cm

Answer : C

Explanation

we have  AB/PQ = 36/24 ⇒ AB / 10 = 3/2 ⇒ AB = (3/2 * 10) = 15 cm.

Q 7 - The radius of a circle is 13cm and AB is a chord which is at a distance of 12cm from the center. The length of the ladder is:

A - 35 cm

B - 17.5 cm

C - 25 cm

D - 10 cm

Answer : D

Explanation

Let O be the  center of the circle and AB be the chord . Form  O, draw OL ⊥ AB. join OA.
Then, oA = 13 cm and OL = 12cm.
∴ AL2 = OA2 -OL2=(13)2 - (12)2= (169-144) =25.
=.> AL= √25 =5 cm
⇒ AB = 2 * AL =(2*5) cm = 10 cm.

Q 8 - In a cyclic quad. ABCD, ∠A=80⁰. Then ∠c =?

q 45

A - 80⁰

B - 160⁰

C - 100⁰

D - 120⁰

Answer : C

Explanation

Opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary.
∴ ∠A + ∠C = 180 ⁰⇒ 80⁰ + C =180⁰ ⇒ C = 100⁰.

Q 9 - In the given figure, AOB is a diameter of the circle and CD || AB. If ∠DAB = 25⁰ ,Then ∠CAD=?

q 49

A - 45⁰

B - 40⁰

C - 65⁰

D - 115⁰

Answer : B

Explanation

AB  DC and AC is a transversal.
∴ ∠ACD = ∠CAB = 25⁰ (alt. s )
∠ACB = 90⁰ ( angle in a semicircle)
∴ ∠BCD =∠ACB + ∠ ACD=(90⁰ +25⁰)= 115⁰.
∠BAD + ∠BCD = 180⁰ ⇒ ∠BAC +∠CAD +∠BCD = 180⁰
⇒ 25⁰ +∠ CAD + 115⁰ =180⁰ ⇒ ∠CAD = 40⁰

Q 10 - In the adjoining figure,ABCD is a rhombus. If ∠A=70⁰ then ∠CDE =?

q 53

A - 65⁰

B - 55⁰

C - 35⁰

D - 45⁰

Answer : B

Explanation

Let CDB= x⁰.
then , CD = CB ⇒ ∠CBD = ∠CDB = x⁰.
∠ BCD = ∠BAD = 70⁰ (opp. s of a rhombus)
∴ x+x + 70 = 180 (sum of the ∠ s of a ∆   is 180⁰)
⇒ 2x = 110 ⇒ x=55. 
∴   ∠CDB= 55⁰.
