(iii) a prime number

(c) Find x from the following equation using properties of proportion:

#### Question 7

(a) Bosco wishes to start a 200 m²  rectangular vegetable garden. Since he has only 50 m barbed wire, he fences three sides of the rectangular garden letting his house compound wall act as the fourth side of the fence. Find the dimensions of the garden. [3]

(b) Construct a triangle ABC, with AB = 6 cm, BC = 7 cm and ABC = 60 .
Locate by construction the point P such that
(i) P is equidistant from B and C.
(ii) P is equidistant from AB and BC
(iii) Measure and record the length of PA. [3]

(c) A retailer buys a TV from a wholesaler for Rs 40000. He marks the price of the T.V. 15% above his cost price and sells it to a consumer at 5% discount on the marked price. If the sales are intra-state and the rate of GST is 12%, find:

(i) the marked price of the TV.

(ii) the amount which the consumer pays for the TV.

(in) the amount of tax (under GST) paid by the retailer to the Central Government.

(iv) the amount of tax (under GST) received by the State Government.

#### Question 8

(b) A (4,2), B(6,8) and C (8,4) are the vertices of a triangle ABC. Write down the equation of the median of the triangle through A. [3]

(c) The angle of elevation of an aeroplane from a point P on the ground is 60° After 12 seconds from the same point P, the angle of elevation of the same
plane changes to 30°. If the plane is flying horizontally at a speed of
600 √3 km / h, find the height at which the plane is flying.     [4]
