2. If the area of a circle is equal to sum of the areas of two circles of diameters 10 cm and 24 cm, then the
diameter of the larger circle (in cm) is:
(A) 34
(B) 26
(C) 17
(D) 14
Solution:
Correct answer: B
Diameters of two circles are given as 10 cm and 24 cm.
Radius of one circle = r1 = 5 cm
Radius of one circle = r2 = 12 cm
Area of the larger circle = (r1 ) 2  (r2 ) 2
 (5) 2  (12) 2
 (25  144)
 169
 (13) 2
Radius of larger circle = 13 cm
Hence, the diameter of larger circle = 26 cm

5. The coordinates of the point P dividing the line segment joining the points
A(1,3) and B(4,6) in the ratio 2 : 1 are:
(A) (2,4)
(B) 3,5)
(C) (4,2)
(D) 5,3)
Solution:
Correct answer: B
It is given that the point P divides AB in the ratio 2: 1.
Using section formula, the coordinates of the point P are
 1  1  2  4 1  3  2  6   1  8 3  12 
 ,  ,   (3,5)
 2 1 2 1   3 3 
Hence the coordinates of the point P are (3, 5).
6. If the coordinates of the one end of a diameter of a circle are (2,3) and the coordinates of its centre are
(-2,5), then the coordinates of the other end of the diameter are:
(A) (-6,7)
(B) ( 6,-7)
(C) (6,7)
(D) (-6,-7)
Solution:
Correct answer: A
Let the coordinates of the other end of the diameter be (x, y).
We know that the centre is the mid-point of the diameter. So, O(-2, 5) is the mid-point of the diameter AB.
The coordinates of the point A and B are (2, 3) and (x, y) respectively.
Using mid-point formula, we have,
2 x
2   4  2  x  x  6

Hence, the coordinates of the other end of the diameter are (-6, 7).
7. The sum of first 20 odd natural number is :

(A) 100
(B) 210
(C) 400
(D) 420
Solution:
Correct answer: C
The first 20 odd numbers are 1, 3, 5, … … 39
This is an AP with first term 1 and the common difference 2.
Sum of 20 terms = S20
20
S20  [2(1)  (20  1)(2)]  10[2  38]  400

Solution:
Correct answer: A
It is given that 1 is a root of the equations ay2 + ay + 3 = 0 and y2 + y + b = 0.
Therefore, y = 1 will satisfy both the equations.
a(1)2 + a(1) + 3 = 0
a + a + 3 = 0

9. In Fig., the sides AB, BC and CA of a triangle ABC, touch a circle at P, Q and R respectively. If PA = 4 cm,
BP = 3 cm and AC = 11 cm, then the length of BC (in cm) is:
(A) 11
(B) 10
(C) 14
(D) 15
Solution:
Correct answer: B
It is known that the lengths of tangents drawn from a point outside a circle are equal in length.
Therefore, we have:
AP = AR … (1) (Tangents drawn from point A)
BP = BQ … (2) (Tangents drawn from point B)
CQ = CR … (3) (Tangents drawn from point C)
Using the above equations,
AR = 4 cm (AP = 4 cm, given)
BQ = 3 cm (BP = 3 cm, given)
AC = 11 cm RC = 11 cm – 4 cm = 7 cm
CQ = 7 cm
Hence, BC = BQ + CQ = 3 cm + 7 cm = 10 cm
10. In Fig., a circle touches the side DF of  EDF at H and touches ED and EF produced at K and M
respectively. If EK = 9 cm, then the perimeter of  EDF (in cm) is:
(A) 18
(B) 13.5
(C) 12
(D) 9
Solution:
Correct answer: A
It is known that the tangents from an external point to the circle are equal.
EK = EM, DK = DH and FM = FH … (1)
Perimeter of EDF = ED + DF + FE
= (EK – DK) + (DH + HF) + (EM – FM)
= (EK – DH) + (DH + HF) + (EM – FH) [Using (1)]
= EK + EM
= 2 EK = 2 (9 cm) = 18 cm
Hence, the perimeter of EDF is 18 cm.

11. If a point A(0,2) is equidistant from the points B(3,p) and C(p,5) then find the value of p.
Solution:
Solution:
It is given that the point A (0, 2) is equidistant from the points B(3, p) and C(p, 5).
So, AB = AC AB2 = AC2
Using distance formula, we have:
 (0  3)2  (2  p)2  (0  p)2  (2  5)2
 9  4  p2  4 p  p 2  9
 4  4p  0
 4p  4
 p 1
Hence, the value of p = 1.

14.Tangents PA and PB are drawn from an external point P to two concentric circle with centre O and radii
8 cm and 5 cm respectively, as shown in Fig., If AP = 15 cm, then find the length of BP.
Solution:
Given: Tangents PA and PB are drawn from an external point P to two
concentric circles with centre O and radii OA = 8 cm, OB = 5 cm
respectively. Also, AP = 15 cm
To find: Length of BP
Construction: We join the points O and P.
Solution: OA ⊥ AP ; OB ⊥ BP
[Using the property that radius is perpendicular to the tangent at the point
of contact of a circle]
In right angled triangle OAP,
OP2 = OA2 + AP2 [Using Pythagoras Theorem]
= (8)2 + (15)2 = 64 + 225 = 289
∴ OP = 17 cm
In right angled triangle OBP,
OP2 = OB2 + BP2
⇒ BP2 = OP2 – OB2
= (17)2 – (5)2 = 289 – 25 = 264
BP  264  2 66 cm.
15.In fig., an isosceles triangle ABC, with AB = AC, circumscribes a circle.

Prove that the point of contact P bisects the base BC.
OR
In fig., the chord AB of the larger of the two concentric circles, with centre O, touches the smaller circle at
C. Prove that AC = CB.
Solution:
Given: ABC is an isosceles triangle, where AB = AC, circumscribing a circle.
To prove: The point of contact P bisects the base BC.
i.e. BP = PC
Proof: It can be observed that
BP and BR ; CP and CQ; AR and AQ are pairs of tangents drawn to the circle
from the external points B , C and A respectively.
So, applying the result that the tangents drawn from an external point to a circle, we get
BP = BR --- (i)
CP = CQ --- (ii)
AR = AQ --- (iii)
Given that AB = AC
⇒ AR + BR = AQ + CQ
⇒ BR = CQ [from (iii)]
⇒ BP = CP [from (i) and (ii)]
∴ P bisects BC.
Hence proved.
OR
Given: The chord AB of the larger of the two concentric circles, with centre O, touches the smaller circle at
C.
To prove: AC = CB
Construction: Let us join OC.
Proof: In the smaller circle, AB is a tangent to the circle at the point of contact C.
∴ OC ⊥ AB ------ (i)
(Using the property that the radius of a circle is perpendicular to the tangent at the point of contact)
For the larger circle, AB is a chord and from (i) we have OC ⊥ AB
∴ OC bisects AB
(Using the property that the perpendicular drawn from the centre to a chord of a circle bisects the chord)
∴ AC = CB

17.Find the sum of all three digit natural numbers, which are multiples of 7.
Solution:
First three- digit number that is divisible by 7 = 105
Next number = 105 + 7 = 112
Therefore the series is 105, 112, 119,…
The maximum possible three digit number is 999.
When we divide by 7, the remainder will be 5.
Clearly, 999 – 5 = 994 is the maximum possible three – digit number divisible by 7.
The series is as follows:
105, 112, 119, …., 994
Here a = 105, d = 7
Let 994 be the nth term of this A.P.
an  a  (n  1)d
 994  105  (n  1)7
 (n  1)7  889

Here a = 3, b = -2k and c = 12
The quadratic equation will have equal roots if Δ = 0
 b2  4ac  0
Putting the values of a,b and c we get
(2k)2  4(3)(12)  0
 4k 2  144  0
 4k 2  144

OR
Prove that opposite sides of a quadrilateral circumscribing a circle subtend supplementary angles at the
centre of the circle.
Solution:
Let ABCD be a parallelogram such that its sides touching a circle with centre O. We know that the tangents
to a circle from an exterior point are equal in length.
 AP = AS [From A] …(i)
BP = BQ [From B] …(ii)
CR = CQ [From C] …(iii)
and, DR = DS [From D] …(iv)
Adding (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv), we get
AP+BP+CR+DR=AS+BQ+CQ+DS
 (AP+BP)+(CR+DR)=(AS+DS)+(BQ+CQ)
 AB+CD = AD+BC
 2 AB = 2 BC [ ABCD is a parallelogram  AB=CD and BC = AD]

26. Draw a triangle ABC with side BC = 6 cm, C = 30 and A = 105. Then construct another triangle
2
whose sides are times the corresponding sides of ABC.
3
Solution:
It is given that A = 105C = 30 .
Using angle sum property of triangle, we get, B = 45
The steps of construction are as follows:
1. Draw a line segment BC = 6 cm.
2. At B, draw a ray making an angle of 45with BC.
3. At C, draw a ray making an angle of 30with BC. Let the two rays meet at point A.
4. Below BC, make an acute angle CBX.
5. Along BX mark off three points B1, B2 , B3 such that BB1 = B1B2 = B2B3.
6. Join B3C.
7. From B2, draw B2C|| B3C.
8. From C, draw CA|| CA, meeting BA at the point A.
Then ABCis the required triangle.
27. The 16th term of an AP is 1 more than twice its 8th term. If the 12th term of the AP is 47, then find its nth
term.
Solution:
Let a and d respectively be the first term and the common difference of the AP.
We know that the nth term of an AP is given by an = a + (n – 1)d

A16 = 1 + 2 a8
 a + (16 – 1)d = 1 + 2[a + (8 – 1)d]
 a + 15d = 1 + 2a + 14d
 a + 15d = 1 + 2a + 14d
 –a + d = 1 … (1)
Also, it is given that, a12 = 47
 a + (12 – 1)d = 47
 a + 11d = 47 … (2)
Adding (1) and (2), we have:
12d = 48
d = 4
From (1),
–a + 4 = 1 a = 3
Hence, an = a + (n – 1)d = 3 + (n – 1)(4) = 3 + 4n – 4 = 4n – 1
Hence, the nth term of the AP is 4n – 1.

Solution:
Here, R = 28 cm and r = 21 cm, we need to find h.

Volume of frustum = 28.49 L = 28.49×1000 cm3 = 28490 cm3
h 2
Now, Volume of frustum =

31. AB + CD = AD + BC
Prove that the tangent at any point of a circle is perpendicular to the radius through the point of contact.
OR
A quadrilateral ABCD is drawn to circumscribe a circle. Prove that AB + CD = AD + BC.
Solution:
Given: AB is a tangent to a circle with centre O.

To prove: OP is perpendicular to AB.
Construction: Take a point Q on AB and join OQ.
Proof: Since Q is a point on the tangent AB, other than the point of contact P, so Q will be outside the
circle.
Let OQ intersect the circle at R.
Now OQ = OR + RQ
 OQ > OR  OQ > OP [as OR = OP]
 OP < OQ
Thus OP is shorter than any other segment among all and the shortest length is the perpendicular from O
on AB.
 OP  AB. Hence proved.
OR
Let ABCD be a quadrilateral, circumscribing a circle.

Since the tangents drawn to the circle from an external point are equal,
we have
AP = AS ... (1)
PB = BQ ... (2)
RC = QC ... (3)
DR = DS ... (4)
Adding, (1), (2), (3) and (4), we get
AP + PB + RC + DR = AS + BQ + QC + DS
(AP + PB) + (DR + RC) = (AS + SD) + (BQ + QC)
AB + CD = AD + BC.
Hence, Proved.

book would have cost ₹1 less. Find the number of books he bought.
OR
1
The sum of two number is 9 and the sum of their reciprocals is . Find the numbers.
2
Solution:
Total cost of books = Rs 80
Let the number of books = x
80
So the cost of each book = Rs
x
80
Cost of each book if he buy 4 more book  Rs
x4
As per given in question:

 2 1
x  4x
 x 2  4 x  320  0
 (x  20)(x  16)  0
 x  20, 16
Since number of books cannot be negative,

So the number of books he brought is 16.
OR
Let the first number be x then the second number be 9 – x as the sum
of both numbers is 9.

 (x  6)(x  3)  0
 x  6,3
If x = 6 then other number is 3.
and if x = 3 then other number is 6.
Hence numbers are 3 and 6.
