It is the third largest multi-purpose stadium in India and owned by the Indian Olympic Association. In 2010, the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium was the main stadium for XIX Commonwealth Games, a major sporting Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium is conducting the annual sports competition soon. The curator of the stadium is tasked to figuring out the dimensions for carving out some areas allotted for a hockey court and a shooting range, as shown in the figure below. The shapes of the hockey court and the shooting range are square and triangle respectively. Both of the courts have a common edge that touches the centre of stadium. The construction of the shooting range is such that the angle to centre is 90^(@). The radius of the stadium is 180 metres. On the basis of the above information, answer any four of the following questions: What is the area allotted to shooting range ? |

Answer» Solution :Steps of Construction : 1. DRAW a line segment BC = 4 cm. 2. From B. draw a line AB = 3 cm which making right angle at B. 3. Join `AC. DeltaABC` is the given right triangle. 4. From B, draw an acute `angleCBY` downwards. 5. On BY, take five POINTS `B_(1),B_(2),B_(3),B_(4)andB_(5)` such that`BB_(1)=B_(1)B_(2)=B_(2)B_(3)=B_(3)B_(4)=B_(4)B_(5).` 6. Join `B_(3)C.` 7. From point `B_(5),` draw `B_(5)C'"||"B_(3)C` producijng BC to C'. 8. Form point C', draw `C'A"||"CA` PRODUCING BA to A' Hence, `DeltaA'BC'` is the required triangle. Justification : By construction, `B_(5)C'"||"B_(3)C` `therefore""(BC)/(C C')-3/2` `Now,""(BC')/(BC)=(BC+C C')/(BC)=1+(C C')/(BC)=1+2/3=5/3` `Also,""C'A'"||"CA` `therefore""DeltaABC~DeltaA'BC'` `and""(A'B)/(AB)=(BC')/(BC)=(A'C')/(CA)=5/3.`

Answer» Solution :Steps of construction 1. Draw a line segment AB= 3 cm 2. Now,draw a ray BY making an acute `angleABY=60^(@)`. 3.With B as centre and radius equal to 5 cm draw an arc cut the POINT C on BY. 4. Againdraw a ray AZ making an acute `angleZAX'=60^(@)`,[`:. BY ||AZ,:.angleYBX'=ZAX'=60^(@)`] 5. With A as centre and radius equal to 5 cm draw an arc cu the point D on AZ . 6. Now, join CD and finally make a parallelogram ABCD. 7. Join BD, which is a diagonal of parallelogram ABCD. 8. From B draw any ray BX downwards making an acute `angleCBX`. 9. Locate 4 points `B_(1),B_(2),B_(3),B_(4)` on BX, such that `BB_(1)=B_(1)B_(2)=B_(2)B_(3)=B_(3)B_(4)`. 10.Join `B_(4)C` and from `B_(3)C` draw a line `B_(4)C'||B_(3)C` intersecting the extended line segment BC at C'. 11. From C' draw C'D'||CD intersecting the extended line segment BD at D'. Then, `DeltaD'BC'` is the required triangle whose sides are `(4)/(3)` of the corresponding sides of `DeltaDBC`. 12. Now draw a line segment D'A' parallel to DA, where A' lies on extended SIDE BA i.e., a ray BX'. 13. Finally, we observer that A'BC'D' is a parallelogram in which A'D'=6.5 cm A'B'=4 cm and `angleA'BD'=60^(@)` divide it into triangle BC'D' and A'BD' by the diagonal BD'. |
