An equilateral triangle, if its altitude is 3.2cm |
|
Answer» Solution :We know that , in an equilateral triangle all SIDES are equal and all angles are equal i.e.,each angle is of `60^(@)` . Given , altitudeof an equilateral triangle say ABC is `3.2cm` . To construct the `DeltaABC` use the following steps. (i) Draw a line PQ. (ii) Take a point D on PQ and draw a ray `DE bot PQ`. (iii) Cut the line segment AD of length `3.2cm` from DE. (iv) Make angles equal to `30^(@)` at A on both sides of AD say `angleCAD and angleBAD` , where B and C LIE on PQ. (v) Cut the line segment DC from PQ such that DC = AD (vi) Join AC Thus , `DeltaABC` is the required triangle. Justification Here, `angleA = angleBAD + angleCAD` = `30^(@) + 30^(@) = 60^(@)` Also, `AD bot BC` `:. angle ADB = 90^(@)` In `DeltaABDangleBAD + angleDBA = 180^(@)` [angle sum property] `30^(@) + 90^(@) + angleDBA = 180^(@)` [`angleBAD= 30^(@)`,by construction] `angleDBA = 60^(@)` Similary,`angleDCA = 60^(@)` Thus , `angleA = angleB = angleC = 60^(@)` Hence, `DeltaABC` is an equilateral triangle.

Following table shows a frequency distribution for the speed of cars passing through at a particular spot on a high way. Draw a histogram and frequency polygon representing the data above. |
|
Answer» Solution :Clearly, the given frequency distribution is in exclusive form. Along the horizontal axis, we present the class intervals on some suitable SCALE. The corresponding frequencies are represented along the vertical axis on a suitable scale. We construct rectangleswith class intervals as the bases and the respective frequencies as the HEIGHTS. ltbgt Let us draw a histrogram for this data and mark the mid-points of the top of the reactangles as B,C,D,E,F,G and H, RESPECTIVELY. Here, the first class is 30-40 and the last class is as B,C,D,E,F,G and H, respectively. Here, the first class is 30-40 and the last class is 90-100. Also, consider the imagined classes 20-30 and 100-110 each with frequency 0. The class MARKS of these classes are 25 and 105 at the points A and l, respectively. Join all these points by dotted line. Then, the curve ABCDEFGHI is the required frequency POLYGON. |
