Find the number of straight lines and the number of triangles in the complex figure given below . |
|
Answer» Number of straight lines are : AB,BC, CD, DA, AC, BD, EH, AH, DH So there are 9 straight lines in the diagram . Now count triangles : Number of small triangles are (containing one component) AGH, GHD, AFD, DGF, FBE and FCE = 6 Number of triangles with two components: AHF, DHF, AHD, AFD, AFB, DFC , FBC = 7 Number of triangles with four components: ABC, ADC, CDB adn ADB = 4 `therefore` TOTAL number of triangle CONTAINED in the figure= 6+7+4 =17 |

Point P (h,k) divides a line segment between the exes in the ratio 1:2 Find the lengths (intercepts) on the axes made by this segment. Also find the area of triangle formed by the line segment and the axes. |
|
Answer» Solution :Let AB be the line segment joining A (0.y) and B (x,0) between the axes. P (h,k) divides the line segment in the ratio `1:2.` Now, question arises that whether `PA:PB=1:2` or `PB:PA=1:2` or `PB:PA = 1:2` The answer of this is that always we take the FORMER part of ratio towards the X-axis and latter part of ratio towards the Y-axis. So, here we will take `""PB,PA=1:2` `THEREFORE` By using section FORMULA, `h=(1(0)+2(x))/(1+2)implies""h=(2x)/(3)impliesx=(3H)/(2)` and `k=(1(y)+2(0))/(1+2)implies""k=(y)/(3)impliesy=3k` So, length of intercept on the X-axis `=OB=x=(3h)/(2)` and the length of intercept on the Y-axis =OA = y = 3k. `therefore` Area of `DeltaAOB=1/2xxOBxxOA=1/2(3h)/(2)xx3k=9/4hk` SQUARE units |

Prove that sqrt(11) is irrational. |
|
Answer» Solution :Let, if possible, `sqrt(11)` be rational and its simplest form be`(a)/(b).` Then a and b are INTEGERS and having no common FACTOR other than 1 and `b ne 0`. Now, `sqrt(11) = (a)/(b)` `rArr` `11 = (a^(2))/(b^(2))` `rArr` `a^(2) = 11b^(2)""`...(1) `therefore` As `11b^(2)` is divisible by 11. `rArr` `a^(2)` is divisible by 11. `rArr` a is divisible by 11. Let a = 11c, for some integer c. From EQUATION (1) `(11c)^(2) = 11b^(2)` `rArr` `b^(2) = 11c^(2)` But `11c^(2)` is divisible by 11. `therefore b^(2)` is divisible by 11. `rArr` b is divisible by 11. Let b = 11d, for some integer d. Thus, 11 is a common factor of a and b both. But it contradicts the fact that a and b have no common factor other than 1. So, our supposition is wrong. Hence, `sqrt(11)` is irrational. `""`Hence Proved. |

The underground sump maintain cool temperatures in both winter and summer. A builder wants to build a sump to store water in an apartment. The volume of the rectangular sump will be modelled by V(x)=x^(3)+x^(2)-4x-4. He planned in such a way that its base dimensions are (x + 1) and (x + 2) . How much he has to dig ? |
|
Answer» `(x+1)` `V(x)=x^(3)+x^(2)-4x-4=x^(2)(x+1)-4(x+1)` `=(x+1) (x^(2)-4)=(x+1)(x-2) (x+2)` If `(x+1)` and `(x+2)` are two dimension , 3rd dimension will be `(x-2)`. THUS he has to DIG `(x-2)`. Thus (b) is correct OPTION. |
