I. In the following questions, four choices are given for each question, choose and write the correct answer along with its alphabet: ( 1 × 8 = 8 )

Question 1.
If the H.C.F of 65 and 117 is expressible in the form of 65m – 117, then the value of m is
a) 4
b) 3
c) 11
d) 2
Solution:
The H.C.F. of 65 and 117 = 65m- 117
Now 13 = 65m- 117
65m 117+13
65rn = 130
m = 130/65 = 2
∴ The value of m = 2
∴ HCF(65, 117)
= 13

Solution:
x, 2x + p, 3x + 6 are inAP a, A, b are A.P.

2(2x + p) = 2(2x + 3)
2x + p = 2x + 3
p = 2x + 3 – 2k
P = 3

Question 7.

a) 4√3
b) 6√3
c) 5√3
d) √3
b) 6√3
Solution:

II. Answer the following Questions : ( 1 x 8 = 8 )

Question 9.
If the product of zeros of polynomial f(y) = ay3 – 6y2 + 11y – 6 is 4 then find the value of ‘a’.
α β γ = $$-\frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{a}}$$
4 = $$\frac{-(-6)}{a}$$
4a = 6
a = $$\frac{6}{4}$$
a = $$\frac{3}{2}$$

Question 10.
What is the value of C, if ax2 + bx + c = 0 has equal roots?
If ax2 + bx + c = 0 has equal roots then,
b2 – 4ac = 0
b2 = 4ac
4ac = b2
c = $$\frac{b^{2}}{4 a}$$

Question 11.
Find the second term if sum of the ‘n’ term of an AP is 2n2 + 1.
Sn = 2n2 + 1
S1 = 2(1)2 + l= 2xl + l= 2+ l= 3
∴ S1 = T1 = a = 3
S2 = 2(2)2 + 1 =8+ 1 =9
a + T2 = 9
T2 = 9 – 3 = 6

Question 12.
State converse of Pythagoras Theorem.
“The square on the greatest side of a triangle is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides, then the other two sides contian the right angle”.

Question 13.
What is the form of $$\frac{p}{q}$$ (p,q ∈ z q ≠ 0) form of 0.57 ?
$$0.5 \overline{7}=\frac{57-5}{90}=\frac{52}{90}=\frac{26}{45}$$

Question 14.
If sinθ = $$\frac{1}{3}$$ then find the value of (cot2θ + 2)
AC2 = AB2 + BC2
BC2 = AC2 – AB2
= 32 – 12
= 9 – 1 = 8
BC = √8 = 2√2
cotθ = $$\frac{2 \sqrt{2}}{1}$$ = 2√2
2cot2θ + 2 = 2(2√2)2 + 2
= 2 x 8 + 2
= 16 + 2
= 18

Question 15.
In sin(A + B) = $$\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$$ and cos (A – B) = 1, 0< A + B < 90°, A ≥ B
sin(A + B) = $$\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$$ = sin60°
A + B = 60° …. (1)
cos (A – B) = 1 = cos0°
A – B = 0 ….(2)
Solve (1) and (2)
A + B = 60
A – B = 0
2A = 60 or A = 30°
A + B = 60
30 + B = 60
B = 60 – 30° = 30°
∴ A = 30°, B = 30°

Question 16.

4R²= 4 x 4
R² = $$\frac{4 \times 4}{4}$$ = 4
R = √4 = 2cm
A = 30°, B = 30°

Question 17.
By Euclid’s division lemma, show that thte square of any positive integer is either of the form 3m or 3m + 1 for some integer m.
Let x be any positive integer. Then it is of the form 3q, 3q+1 or 3q + 2.
Now, (3q)2 = 9q2 = 3(3q2) = 3m where m = 3q2
(3q + 1)2 = 9q2 + 6q+ 1 = 3(3q2 + 2q) + 1
= 3m + 1, where m = 3q2 + 2q and (3q+2)2 = 9q2 + 12q + 4
= 3(3q2 + 4q + 1) +1
=3m +1, where m = 3q2 + 4q + 1
Hence, it is proved.

Question 18.
Solve : $$\frac{x+y}{x y}$$ = 2 and $$\frac{x-y}{x y}$$ = 6
x + y = 2xy
x – y = 6xy

2 = 8y

Question 19.
Solve : y2 – (√3 + 1)y + √3 = 0
y2 – √3y – y + √3 = 0
y(y – √3) – 1(y – √3) = 0
(y – √3)(y – 1) = 0
y – √3 = 0, y – 1 = 0
y = √3 and y = 1

Question 20.
Show that the points (3, 2) (-2, -3) and (2, 3) are collinear Or non – collinear.
Let A= (3, 2) B = (-2, -3) C = (2, 3)

AC ≠ AB + BC
∴ They are non – collinear.

Question 21.
In the given fig ∆DGH ~ ∆DEF, DH = 8cm, DF = 12cm, DG = (3x – l)cm and DE = (4x +. 2)cm, Find the lengths of DG and DE.
∆DGH ~ ∆DEF
$$\frac{\mathrm{DG}}{\mathrm{DE}}=\frac{\mathrm{DH}}{\mathrm{DF}}$$
$$\frac{3 x-1}{4 x+2}=\frac{8}{12}$$

12 (3x – 1) = 8(4x + 2)
36x – 12 = 32x + 16
36x – 32x = 16 + 12
4x = 28
x = 28/4
x = 7
∴ DG = 3x – 1 = 3 x 7 – 1 = 21 – 1 = 20
DE = 4x + 2 = 4 x 7 + 2 = 28 + 2 = 30

OR

a) Prime number b) Divisible by 3.
n(s) = 21
A= {2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19}
n(A) = 8
P(A) = $$\frac{n(A)}{n(S)}=\frac{8}{21}$$

b) n(S) = 21
B= {3,6, 9,12,15,18}
n(B) = 6
∴ P(B) = $$\frac{n(B)}{n(S)}=\frac{6}{21}=\frac{2}{7}$$

Question 25.
The sum of the numerator and denominator of a fraction is 24. If 4 is subtracted from the numerator and 5 from its denominator, then it reduces to 1/4. Find the fraction.
Let the fraction be $$\frac{\mathrm{x}}{\mathrm{y}}$$
sum of its numerator and denominator = 24.
x + y = 24 ……..(1)
If 4 is subtracted from the numerator and
5 from its denominator we get = 1/4
⇒ $$\frac{x-4}{y-5}=\frac{1}{4}$$
4(x – 4) = 1(y – 5)
4x – 16 = y – 5
4x – y = -5 + 16
4x – y = 11 ……..(2)
From (1) and (2)

Consider,
x + y = 24
7 + y = 24
y = 24 – 7
y = 17
∴ The fraction is $$\frac{x}{y}=\frac{7}{17}$$

OR

Two women and five men can together finish an embroidary work in 4 days. While three women and 6 men can finish in 3 days. Find the time taken by one women alone and also that taken by one man alone.
Let 1 woman can finish the embroidary in x days and 1 man can finish the embroidary in y days.
1 woman’s 1 day’s work = $$\frac{1}{x}$$
1 man’s 1 day’s work = $$\frac{1}{y}$$

Let $$\frac{1}{x}$$ = u, $$\frac{1}{y}$$ = v
2u + 5v = $$\frac{1}{4}$$
3u + 6v = $$\frac{1}{3}$$
solve (1) and (2)
(8u + 20v = 1) x 9
(9u+ 18v= 1) x 8

v = $$\frac{1}{36}$$
Put v = $$\frac{1}{36}$$…….(1)
2u + 5v = $$\frac{1}{4}$$
2u + 5$$\frac{1}{36}$$ = $$\frac{1}{4}$$

Thus, 1 woman alone can finish the embroidery in 18 days and 1 man alone can finish it in 36 days.

Question 26.
If two zeroes of the polynomial p(x) = x4 – 6x3 – 26x2 + 138x – 35 are 2 – √3 and 2 + √3. Find the other two zeroes.
The two zeroes of p(x) are,
(2 – √3) and (2 + √3)
⇒ [x – (2 – √3] and [x – [2 + √3] are the factors p(x).
⇒ [ x – 2 + √3] [x – 2 – √3]
(x – 2)2 – (√3)2
x2 – 4x + 4 – 3
⇒ x2 – 4x + 1 is a factor of p(x)
Divide p(x) by x2 – 4x + 1 to get quotient

Consider the quotient, x2 – 2x – 35 = 0
x2 – 7x + 5x – 35 = 0
x(x – 7) + 5(x – 7) = 0
(x – 7) (x + 5) = 0
x-7 = 0 orx + 5 = 0
x = 7 or x = -5
∴ The other two zeroes are 7, -5.

Question 27.
A two digit number is such that the product of its digits is 18. when 63 is subtracted from the number, the digits interchange their places. Find the number.
Let the two digits be x and y.
⇒ The two digit number is = 10x + y
The product of three digits = xy = 18
When 63 is subtracted from the number, the digits interchange their places.
10x + y – 63 = 10y + x
10x – x – 10y + y = 63
9x – 9y = 63
9(x – y) = 63
x – y = 63/9 = 7
x – y = 7
x = 7 + y
Consider xy = 18 and substitute x = (y + 7) in it.
y(y + 7) = is . .
y2 + 7y – 18 = 0
y2 + 9y – 2y – 18 = 0
y (y + 9) – 2(y + 9) = 0 –
(y + 9) (y – 2) = 0 .
y + 9 = 0, y -2 = 0
y = -9 or y = 2
xy= 18
x(2) = 18
x = 18/2 = 9
x = 2
But negative digit is not considered.
∴ The two digit number is
= 10x + y
= 10(9) + 2 = 92

OR

A plane left 30 minutes later than the scheduled time and in order to reach its destination 1500 km away in time it has to increase its speed by 250 km / hr from its usual speed. Find its usual speed.
Let the usual speed of the plane be x km / hr. Time taken to cover 1500 km with the usual speed.
$$\frac{1500}{x}$$ hrs
Time taken to cover 1500 km with the speed of (x + 250) km / hr = $$\frac{1500}{x+250}$$

2(1500 x 250) = x2 + 250x
x2 + 250x-750000 = 0
x2 + 1000x – 750x – 750000 = 0
x(x + 1000) – 750(x + 1000) = 0
(x+ 1000)(x-750) = 0
x + 1000 = 0 or x – 750 = 0
x = -1000 or x= 750 ,
x = 750
Hence, the usual speed of the plane = 750 km/hr.
