Construct a right angled triangle whose base is 12 cm and sum of its hypotenuse and other side is 18 cm.

Answer»

Solution :Given that, in `DeltaABC`, base `BC = 12 cm,` `angleB = 90^(@)` and `AB + BC = 18 cm.`
1.DRAW the base `BC = 12 cm.`
2. At the point `B,` make an `angleXBC = 90^(@)`.
3. Cut a line segment `BD = AB + AC= 18 cm` from the ray `BX.`
4. Join `DC.`
Draw the perpendicular bisector `PQ` of `CD` to intersect `BD` at a point `A.`
6. Join `AC.`
Then, `ABC` is the required right angled triangle.

Which of the following is the least attractive scheme?

Answer»

`5%` of Rs.120 SHARES at Rs.150.
`6%` Rs.105 shares at Rs.140.
`7%` Rs.105 shares at Rs.125.
`8%` Rs.80 shares at Rs.108.

Solution :Case 1: Face value/share = Rs.120
Dividend rate `=5%`
Annual income/share`=(5)/(100)("Rs.120")="Rs.6"`
Market value/share = Rs.150
Rate of return `=(6)/(150)(100)=4%`
In a similar manner, the rates for the remaining choices can be worked out.
Choice 2: Annual income/share = Rs.6.30
Rate of return `=(6.3)/(14)(100)=(9)/(2)%`.
Choice 3: Annual income/share = Rs.6.30
Rate of return `=(6.3)/(125)(100)=5.04%`.
Choice 4: Annual income/share = Rs.6.40
Rate of return `=(6.4)/(108)(100)=5(25)/(27)%`.
The least ATTRACTIVE scheme is the sheme giving minimum rate of return.
`therefore` Choice (a) gives the minimum rate of return among all the choice.

A random survey of the number of children of various are groups playing in park was found as follows : Draw a histogram to represent the data above.

Answer»

Solution :We know that, the areas of the rectangles are proportional to the frequencies in a histogram.
Here, the widths to the rectangles are varying, so we NEED to make certain modifications in the lengths of the rectangles, so that the areas are again proportional to the frequencies :
1. SELECT a class interval with the minimum class size. The minium class size is 1.
2. The lengths of the rectangles are then modified to be proportionate to the class size 1.
Now, we get the FOLLOWING table:

So, the correct histogram with varying width is GIVEN ahead.

A taxi charges .Rs 20 for the first kilometre and @ .Rs per km for subsequent distance covered. Taking the total distance covered as x km and total fare .Rs y, write a linear equation depicting the relation between x and y. Draw the graph between x and y. Form your graph, find the taxi charges for covering (a) 12 km and (b) 20 km.

Answer»

Solution :The REQUIRED linear equation is given by
`y=20+12(x-1) rArr y=8 + 12x""`…(i)
Putting `x=1" in (i), we get"y= ( 8+12 xx 1) = 20.`
`x=6 " in (i), we get " y = ( 8 + 12 xx 6) = 80.`
Putting `x=10 " in (i) , we get " y= ( 8+ 12 xx 10) = 128.`
Putting `x=15 " in (i), we get "y= ( 8 + 12 xx 15) = 188.`
Thus, we have the following table: `{:(x,1,6,10,15),(y,20,80,128,188):}`
On a graph paper, draw lines X'OX and YOY' as the x-axis and the y-axis respectively. Choose the scale.
Along the x-axis: 1 small division = 1 km.
Along the y-axis : 5 small division = .Rs 40.
Now, the plot the points `A(1,20), B(6,80),C(10,128) and D(15,188).`
Join AB, BC and CD to get the singlegraph line AD, as shown below.

(a) On the x-axis , take a point P such that OP=12 km.
Draw `PM bot X'OX` meeting the graph line at M(12,152).
Thus `(x=12 rArr y=152)`, i.e., when distance COVERED is 12 km then the taxi -fare is .Rs 152.
(b)On the x- axis, take a point Q such thatOQ= 20 km.
Draw `QN bot X'OX`, meeting the graph line at N(20,248).
Thus ,`(x= 20 rArr y= 248)` i.e., when distance covered is 20 km then the taxi -fare is .Rs 248.

Draw a line segment 6.0 cm long and draw its perpendicular bisector.

Answer»

Solution :Steps of construction :
1. Draw a line `AB = 6.0 cm`.
2. With `A` as centre and a radius EQUAL to more than half of`AB` draw two arcs on both sides of line `AB`.
3. With `B` as centre draw and with same radius draw two arcs on both sides of `AB` which cut previous arcs at `C` and `D` respectively.
4. Join `C, D` which INTERSECT`AB` at POINT `X`. `X` will be the mid-point of`AB`.
Then, `CD`is the required line.
