Choose the correct answer from the given four options (3 to 19):
Question 3. Sum of all interior angles of a 11-sided polygon is

(a) 1620°
(b) 1440°
(c) 1260
(d) none of these

Answer:

Sum of all interior angles of an 11-sided polygon is
= (2 × n – 4 ) × 90°
= (2 × 11 – 4) × 90°
= 18 × 90 = 1620 (a

Question 4. If each interior angle of a regular polygon is 144°, then number of sides of polygon is

(a) 8
(b) 9
(c) 10
(d) 11

Answer:

Each interior angle of a regular polygon is 144°
Then 2n-4/n  × 90° = 144°

⇒ 2n-4/n = 144°/90°
⇒ 10n – 20° = 8n
⇒ 10n – 8n = 20°
⇒ 2n = 20°
⇒ n = 10
∴ It is 10-sided polygon. (c)

Question 5. If the sum of all interior angles of a polygon is 1260°, then number of sides of polygon is

(a) 6
(b) 7
(c) 8
(d) 9

Answer

Sum of all interior angles of a polygon = 1260°
∴ (2n – 4) × 90° = 1260°
⇒ 2n – 4 =1260°/90°
⇒ 2n = 14 + 4 = 18
⇒ n = 18/2 = 9
∴ Polygon is 9-sided. (d)

Question 6. The sum of all exterior angles of a pentagon is

(a) 590°
(b) 360°
(c) 180°
(d) none of these

Answer:

Sum of exterior angles of a pentagon = 360° (b)

Question 7. If the ratio between an exterior and interior angle of a regular polygon is 1 : 5, then the number of sides of the polygon is

(a) 11
(b) 12
(c) 13
(d) 14

Answer:

Ratio between exterior angle and interior angle
of a regular polygon = 1 : 5
But sum of angles = 180°
∴ Exterior angle = 180°/(1+5)  × 1
= 180°/6 = 30°
∴ Number of sides = 360°/30 =12 (b)
(Sum of exterior angles = 360°)

Question 8. In the given figure, the value of x is

(a) 140°
(b) 50°
(c) 130°
(d) 40°
Question 8. In the given figure, the value of x is

Answer:

In the given figure,
Sum of exterior angles of a triangle = 360°
∴ 140° + x + 90° = 360°
⇒ x + 230° = 360°
∴ x = 360° – 230° = 130° (c)

Question 9. In the given figure, the value of x is

(a) 120°
(b) 130°
(c) 140°
(d) 150°

Question 9. In the given figure, the value of x is

Answer:

In the given figure,
Sum of angles of a quadrilateral = 360°
∴ 60° + (180° – 120°) + 110° + x = 360°
⇒ 60° + 60° + 110° + x = 360°
230° + x = 360°
∴ x = 360°- 230° = 130° (b)

(a) 180°
(b) 270°
(c) 300°
(d) 360°

Question 10. In the given figure, the value of x + y + z + w is

Answer:

In the given figure,
Sum of exterior angles of a quadrilateral = 360°
∴ x + y + z + w = 360° (d)

Question 11. In the given figure, the value of x + y is

(a) 180°
(b) 190°
(c) 170°
(d) 160°

Question 11. In the given figure, the value of x + y is

Answer:

In the given figure,
Sum of interior angles of a quadrilateral = 360°
60° + y + 110° + x = 360°
⇒ x + y + 170° = 360°
⇒ x + y = 360° – 170°
x + y = 190° (b)

Question 12. The lengths of two adjacent sides of a parallelogram are in the ratio 1 : 2. If the perimeter of parallelogram is 60 cm, then length of its sides are

(a) 6 cm, 12 cm
(b) 8 cm, 16 cm
(c) 9 cm, 18 cm
(d) 10 cm, 20 cm

Answer:

Ratio in the length of two adjacent sides of a parallelogram = 1 : 2
Perimeter = 60 cm
∴ Sum of two adjacent sides = 60/2 = 30 cm
Let first side = x, then second side = 2x
∴ x + 2x = 30 ⇒ 3x = 30
x = 30/2 = 10 cm
First side = 10 cm
and second side = 10 × 2 = 20 cm (d)

Question 13. In the given figure, ABCD is a parallelogram, the values of x and y respectively are

Answer:

In the given figure, ABCD is a parallelogram
∵ Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other
∴ AO = OC and BO = OD
∴ 6 = 5x + 1
⇒ 5x = 6 – 1 = 5
⇒ x = 5/5
and y + 3 = 4
⇒ y = 4 – 3 = 1
∴ x = 1, y = 4 (a)

Question 14. In the given figure, ABCD is a parallelogram, the values of x, y and z respectively are

Answer:

In the given figure,
Question 14. In the given figure, ABCD is a parallelogram, the values of x, y and z respectively are
ABCD is a parallelogram, BD is its one diagonal
∠ABD + ∠DBC +∠CBE = 180°
(Angles on one side of a line)
⇒ 50° + x + 70° = 180°
x + 120° = 180°
∴ x = 180° – 120° = 60°
But y = x (Alternate angles)
∴ y = 60°
z = 70° (Alternate angles)
∴ x = 60°, y = 60°, z = 70° (a)

Question 15. In the given figure, ABCD is a rectangle, the value of angle x is

(a) 60°
(b) 90°
(c) 120°
(d) none of these
Question 15. In the given figure, ABCD is a rectangle, the value of angle x is

Answer:

In the given figure, ABCD is a rectangle

Question 15. In the given figure, ABCD is a rectangle, the value of angle x is
∴ ∠OBA = ∠OAB = 30°
In ∆AOB,
∠AOB = ∠COD (Vertically opposite angles)
∠AOB = x
∠AOB + ∠OBA + ∠OAB = 180° (Angles of a triangle)
⇒ x + 30° + 30° = 180°
⇒ x = 180°- 30°- 30° = 120°
∴ x = 120° (c)

Question 16. In a rhombus ABCD, the diagonals AC and BD are respectively 8 cm and 6 cm. The length of each side of the rhombus is

(d) none of these

Question 18. In the given figure, ABCD is a kite, the value of angle x is

Answer:

In the given figure, ABCD is a kite whose
diagonals AC and BD intersect at O at right angles.

Question 18. In the given figure, ABCD is a kite, the value of angle x is
In ∆OAB, ∠O = 90°
∴ ∠OAB + ∠ABO = 90°
⇒ ∠OAB + 36° = 90°
⇒ ∠OAB = 90° – 36° = 54°
But ∠OAD = ∠OCD = 50°
x = ∠DAO + ∠AOB
⇒ x = 50° + 54°= 104° (c)

(b) 110°, 70°, 110°
(c) 70°, 110°, 110°
(d) none of these
Question 19. In the given figure, ABCD is an isosceles trapezium. The values of x, y and z respectively are

Answer:

In isosceles trapezium ∠A = 70°
But ∠B = ∠A = 70° ⇒ z = 70°
But x + 70° = 180°
⇒ x = 180°-70°= 110°
But y = x = 110°
∴ 110°, 110°, 70° (a)

Question 1. In the given figure, ABCDEF is a regular hexagon. Prove that quadrialterals ABDE and ACDF are parallelograms. Also prove that quadrilateral AGDH is a parallelogram.

Question 1. In the given figure, ABCDEF is a regular hexagon. Prove that quadrialterals ABDE and ACDF are parallelograms. Also prove that quadrilateral AGDH is a parallelogram.

Answer:

In the given figure, ABCDEF is a regular hexagon.
AC, AE, DF, DB are joined.
Question 1. In the given figure, ABCDEF is a regular hexagon. Prove that quadrialterals ABDE and ACDF are parallelograms. Also prove that quadrilateral AGDH is a parallelogram.
To prove: ABDE, ACDF and AGDH are ||gm
Proof: In ∆BCD,
BC = CD
∴ ∠CBD = ∠CDB = 30° (∵ ∠C = 120° angle of hexagon)
But ∠B = ∠D (Angles of a regular hexagon)
∴ ∠B – ∠CBD = ∠D – ∠CDB
⇒ ∠ABD = ∠BDE = 90°
Similarly, ∠FAB = ∠AED = 90°
∴ ∠ABD + ∠BDE = 90° + 90° = 180°
But they are cointerior angle.
∴ AB || DE
∴ ABDE is a ||gm
Similarly we can prove that ACDF is a parallelogram.
∵ AC || DF and BD || AC
∴ AGDH is a parallelogram.

Question 2. In the given figure, ABCD is a parallelogram and M, N are the mid-points of sides BC, AD respectively. Prove that EA = AB = BF.

Question 2. In the given figure, ABCD is a parallelogram and M, N are the mid-points of sides BC, AD respectively. Prove that EA = AB = BF.

Answer:

In the given figure,
ABCD is a parallelogram M and N are
midpoints of the sides BC and AD respectively.
To prove : EA = AB = BF.
Proof: In ∆AFD,
M is the midpoint of BC and BC || AD
∴ B is mid-point of AF
∴ AB = BF …(i)
Similarly in ∆EBC,
N is the midpoint of AD and AD || BC
∴ A is the midpoint of EB
∴ EA = AB …(ii)
From (i) and (ii),
EA = AB = BF

Question 3. Prove that the quadrilateral formed by joining the mid-points of the adjacent sides of a rectangle is a parallelogram.

Answer:

Given : ABCD is a rectangle.
P, Q, R and S are the mid points of the sides
AB, BC, CD and DA respectively.
PQ, QR, RS and SP are joined.
To prove : PQRS is a parallelogram.
Construction : Join AC and BD.
Question 3. Prove that the quadrilateral formed by joining the mid-points of the adjacent sides of a rectangle is a parallelogram.
Proof: In ∆ABC,
P and Q are mid points of AB and BC respectively
∴ PQ || AC and PQ = 1/2 AC …(i)
Similarly in ∆ADC
SR mid points of AD and CD respectively
∴ SR || AC and SR = 1/2 AC …(ii)
From (i) and (ii),
SR || PQ and SR = PQ
∴ PQRS is a parallelogram.
