SECTION A [40 Marks]

(Answer all questions from this Section.)

Question 1:

(a) Find the value of $x$ and $y$ if

$2 \begin{bmatrix} x & y \\ 9 & y-5 \end{bmatrix} + \begin{bmatrix} 6 & -7 \\ 4 & 5 \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 10 & 7 \\ 22 & 15 \end{bmatrix}$     [3]

(b) Sonia had a recurring deposit in a bank and deposited Rs. 600 per month for $2$ $\frac{1}{2}$ years. If the rate of interest was $10\%$ per annum, find the maturity value of this account.     [3]

(c) Cards bearing numbers $2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18 \ and \ 20$ are kept in a bag. A card is drawn at random from this bag. Find a probability of getting a card which is:

(i) a prime number

(ii) a number divisible by $4$

(iii) a number that is multiple of $6$

(iv) an odd number     [4]

(a)  $2 \begin{bmatrix} x & y \\ 9 & y-5 \end{bmatrix} + \begin{bmatrix} 6 & -7 \\ 4 & 5 \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 10 & 7 \\ 22 & 15 \end{bmatrix}$

$\Rightarrow$ $\begin{bmatrix} 2x & 2y \\ 18 & 2y-10 \end{bmatrix} + \begin{bmatrix} 6 & -7 \\ 4 & 5 \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 10 & 7 \\ 22 & 15 \end{bmatrix}$

$\Rightarrow$ $\begin{bmatrix} 2x+6 & 2y-7 \\ 22 & 2y-5 \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 10 & 7 \\ 22 & 15 \end{bmatrix}$

$\Rightarrow$ $2x+6=10 \Rightarrow x = 2$

and $27-5 = 15 \Rightarrow y = 10$

Hence, $x =2 \ and \ y = 10$

(b)  Monthly investments $(x) = 600 \ Rs.$

$n = 30 \ months$, $r = 10\%$

$I =$ $\frac{n(n+1)}{2}$ $\times x \times$ $\frac{1}{12}$ $\times$ $\frac{r}{100}$

$=$ $\frac{30(31)}{2}$ $\times 600 \times$ $\frac{1}{12}$ $\times$ $\frac{10}{100}$

$= 2325 \ Rs.$

Maturity value $= x \times n + I = 600 \times 30 + 2325 = 20325 \ Rs.$

(c)   Cards: $2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18 \ and \ 20$

$n(S) = 10$

(i) Prime numbers: $2$

$n(E) = 1$

Probability (a prime number) $=$ $\frac{n(E)}{n(S)}$ $=$ $\frac{1}{10}$

(ii) Numbers divisible by $4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20$

$n(E) = 5$

Probability (a prime number) $=$ $\frac{n(E)}{n(S)}$ $=$ $\frac{5}{10}$ $= 0.5$

(iii) Numbers multiple of $6: 6, 12, 18$

$n(E) = 3$

Probability (a prime number) $=$ $\frac{n(E)}{n(S)}$ $=$ $\frac{3}{10}$ $= 0.5$

(iv) Odd numbers: None

$n(E) = 0$

Probability (a prime number) $=$ $\frac{n(E)}{n(S)}$ $=$ $\frac{0}{10}$ $= 0$

Question 2:

(a) The circumference of the base of a cylindrical vessel is $132 \ cm$ and its height is $25 \ cm$. Find the

(ii) volume of the cylinder (use $\pi =$ $\frac{22}{7}$)     [3]

(b) If $(k-3), (2k+1)$ and $(4k+3)$ are three consecutive terms of an A.P., find the value of $k$.     [3]

(c) $PQRS$ is a cyclic quadrilateral. Given that $\angle QPS = 73^o, \angle PQS = 55^o$ and $\angle PSR = 82^o$, calculate

(i) $\angle QRS$

(ii) $\angle RQS$

(iii) $\angle PRQ$     [4]

(a)   Circumference $= 132 \ cm$

Height $= 25 \ cm$

Circumference $= 2\pi r = 132$

$r =$ $\frac{132 \times 7}{2 \times 22}$ $= 21 \ cm$

Volume $= \pi r ^2 h$

$=$ $\frac{22}{7}$ $\times 21 \times 21 \times 25$

$= 34650 \ cm^3$

(b)  $(k-3), (2k+1)$ and $(4k+3)$ are in AP

$\Rightarrow (2k+1) - (k-3) = (4k+3) -(2k+1)$

$\Rightarrow k+4 = 2k+2$

$\Rightarrow k = 2$

Therefore the terms are $-1, 5, 11$ and the common difference is $6$

(c)   Join $PR$

(i) $\angle SPQ + \angle QRS = 180^o$

$\Rightarrow \angle QRS = 180^o - 73^o = 107^o$ (opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral)

(ii) $\angle PSR + \angle PQR = 180^o$

$\Rightarrow 82^o+55^o+\angle SQR = 180^o$

$\Rightarrow \angle SQR = 180^o -82^o-55^o = 43^o$

(iii) $\angle PSR = 55^o = \angle PQS$ (angles in the same segment)

Therefore $\angle SRQ = 180^o - 73^o = 107^o$

$\angle PRQ = 105^o - 55^o = 52^o$

$\\$

Question 3:

(a) If $(x+2$) and $(x+3)$ are factors of $x^3+ax+b$, find the values of $a$ and $b$.     [3]

(b) Prove that $\sqrt{sec^2 \theta + csec^2 \theta} = tan \ \theta + cot \ \theta$     [3]

(c) Using a graph paper draw a histogram for the given distribution showing the number of runs scored by 50 batsman. Estimate the mode of the data.     [4]

 Runs Scored 3000-4000 4000-5000 5000-6000 6000-7000 7000-8000 8000-9000 9000-10000 No. of Batsman 4 18 9 6 7 2 4

(a)  $f(x) = x^3+ax+b$

Factors: $x+2 = 0 \Rightarrow x = -2$

$x+3 = 0 \Rightarrow x = -3$

$f(-2) = (-2)^3+a(-2)+b =0$

$\Rightarrow 2a-b = -8$ … … … … … (i)

$f(-3) = (-3)^3+a(-3)+b =0$

$\Rightarrow -3a+b = 27$  … … … … … (ii)

Solving (i) and (ii)

$2a-b=-8 \\ \underline{-3a+b=27} \\ -a \ \ \ \ \ \ \ = 19$

$\Rightarrow a = -19$

Substituting in (ii)

$2(-19)-b = -8$

$\Rightarrow b = -30$

(b)  $\sqrt{sec^2 \theta + csec^2 \theta} = tan \ \theta + cot \ \theta$

$LHS =$ $\sqrt{sec^2 \theta + csec^2 \theta}$

$= \sqrt{1+tan^2 \theta + 1 + cot^2 \theta}$

$= \sqrt{2+tan^2 \theta + cot^2 \theta}$

$= \sqrt{2 tan \ \theta cot \ \theta+tan^2 \theta + cot^2 \theta}$

$=\sqrt{(tan \ \theta + cot \ \theta)^2}$

$= tan \ \theta + cot \ \theta$

$= RHS$. Hence proved.

(c)

Mode $= 4600$

Question 4:

(a) Solve the following inequation, write down the solution set and represent it on a real number line.

$-2+10x \leq 13x + 10 \leq 24 + 10x, x \in Z$     [3]

(b) If the straight lines $3x-5y=7$ and $4x +ay+9 =0$ are perpendicular to one another, find the value of $a$.     [3]

(c) Solve $x^2 + 7x = 7$ and give your answer correct to two decimal places.     [4]

(a) $-2+10x \leq 13x + 10 \leq 24 + 10x, x \in Z$

First equation: $-2+10x \leq 13x + 10$

$\Rightarrow -12 \leq 3x$

$\Rightarrow -4 \leq x$

Second equation: $13x + 10 \leq 24 + 10x$

$\Rightarrow 3x < 14$

$\Rightarrow x <$ $\frac{14}{3}$

$\therefore -4 \leq x <$ $\frac{14}{3}$

Hence the solution set $= \{x \in Z: -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 \}$

(b)  Two equations are:

$3x-5y=7 \Rightarrow y =$ $\frac{3}{5}$ $x -$ $\frac{7}{5}$ $\Rightarrow m_1 =$ $\frac{3}{5}$

$4x+ay+9=0 \Rightarrow y =$ $\frac{-4}{a}$ $x -$ $\frac{1}{a}$ $\Rightarrow m_2 =$ $\frac{-4}{a}$

Since the two lines are perpendicular to each other

$m_1 \times m_2 = -1$

$\frac{3}{5}$ $\times$ $\frac{-4}{a}$ $= -1 \Rightarrow a =$ $\frac{12}{5}$

(c)  $x^2+7x=7$

$x^2+7x-7=0$

$\Rightarrow a = 1, b = 7, c = -7$

$x =$ $\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$= \frac{-7 \pm \sqrt{7^2+4.1.17}}{2.1}$

$= \frac{-7 \pm \sqrt{77}}{2}$

$= \frac{-7 \pm 8.77}{2}$

Therefore $x = \frac{-7 + 8.77}{2.1}, \frac{-7 - 8.77}{2}$

or $x = 0.885 \approx 0.89, -7.885 \approx 7.89$

SECTION B [40 Marks]

(Attempt any four questions from this Section.)

Question 5:

(a) The $4^{th}$ term of a G.P is $16$ and the $7^{th}$ term is $128$. Find the first term and the common ratio of the series.     [3]

(b) A man invests Rs. 22500 in Rs. 50 shares available at $10\%$ discount. If the dividend paid by the company is $12\%$, calculate:

(i) The number of shares purchased

(iii) The rate of return he gets on his investment. Give your answer correct to the nearest whole number.     [3]

(c) Use graph paper for this question (Take 2 cm = 1 unit along both $x-axis$ and $y-axis$). $ABCD$ is a quadrilateral whose vertices are $A(2,2), B(2, -2), C(0,-1)$ and $D(0,1)$.

(i) Reflect quadrilateral $ABCD$ on the y-axis and name it as $A'B'CD$

(ii) Write down the coordinate of $A'$ and $B'$

(iii) Name two points which are invariant under the above reflection

(iv) Name the polygon $A'B'CD$     [4]

(a)  $4^{th} \ term = 16, \ 7^{th} \ term = 128$

$T_n = ar^{n-1}$

Therefore $T_4: 16 = ar^3 \Rightarrow$ $\frac{16}{a}$ $=r^3$

$T_7: 128 = ar^6$

$\Rightarrow 128 = a(r^3)^2$

$\Rightarrow 128 = a.$ $(\frac{16}{a})^2$

$\Rightarrow 128 = a .$ $\frac{16^2}{a^2}$

$\Rightarrow a =$ $\frac{256}{128}$ $= 2$

Therefore $r^3 =$ $\frac{16}{2}$ $= 8 \Rightarrow r = 2$

(b) Face Value $(FV) = 50 \ Rs.$, Discount $= 10\%$

Market Value $(MV) = 50 -$ $\frac{10}{100}$ $\times 50 = 45 Rs.$

Total Investment $= 22500 \ Rs.$

(i) Number of shares bought $(n) =$ $\frac{22500}{45}$ $= 500$

(ii) Annual dividend received $= FV \times n \times Dividend \% = 50 \times 500 \times$ $\frac{12}{100}$ $= 3000 \ Rs.$

(iii) Rate of return $=$ $\frac{Dividend \ Received}{Total \ Investment}$ $\times 100$

$=$ $\frac{3000}{22500}$ $\times 100 = 13.33\% \approx 13\%$

(c)

(i) Refer to the graph

(ii) $A'(-2, 2)$ and $B'(-2, -2)$

(iii) $C$ and $D$ are irrelevant to the reflection

(iv) $A'B'CD$ is a trapezium

$\\$

Question 6:

(a) Using the properties of proportion, solve for $x$. Given that $x$ is positive

$\frac{2x+\sqrt{4x^2-1}}{2x-\sqrt{4x^2-1}}$ $= 4$     [3]

(b) If $A = \begin{bmatrix} 2 & 3 \\ 5 & 7 \end{bmatrix}$$B = \begin{bmatrix} 0 & 4 \\ -1 & 7 \end{bmatrix}$ and $C = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ -1 & 4 \end{bmatrix}$, find $AC+B^2-10C$.     [3]

(c) Prove that $(1+cot \ \theta - cosec \ \theta)(1 + tan \ \theta + sec \ \theta) = 2$     [4]

(a)  $\frac{2x+\sqrt{4x^2-1}}{2x-\sqrt{4x^2-1}}$ $= 4$

Applying Componendo and Dividendo

$\frac{(2x+\sqrt{4x^2-1}) + (2x-\sqrt{4x^2-1})}{(2x+\sqrt{4x^2-1}) - (2x-\sqrt{4x^2-1})}$ $=$ $\frac{4+1}{4-1}$

$\frac{4x}{ 2 \sqrt{4x^2-1} }$ $=$ $\frac{5}{3}$

$6x = 5\sqrt{4x^2-1}$

$36x^2 = 25(4x^2 -1 )$

$36x^2 = 100x^2 - 25$

$25 = 64 x^2$

$x^2 =$ $\frac{25}{64}$ $\Rightarrow x =$ $\frac{5}{8}$ $\ or$ $\frac{-5}{8}$

(b)  $AC+B^2-10C$

$= \begin{bmatrix} 2 & 3 \\ 5 & 7 \end{bmatrix} . \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ -1 & 4 \end{bmatrix} + \begin{bmatrix} 0 & 4 \\ -1 & 7 \end{bmatrix} . \begin{bmatrix} 0 & 4 \\ -1 & 7 \end{bmatrix} - 10 . \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ -1 & 4 \end{bmatrix}$

$= \begin{bmatrix} 2-3 & 12 \\ 5-7 & 28 \end{bmatrix} + \begin{bmatrix} -4 & 28 \\ -7 & -4+49 \end{bmatrix} - 10 \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ -1 & 4 \end{bmatrix}$

$= \begin{bmatrix} -1 & 12 \\ -2 & 28 \end{bmatrix} + \begin{bmatrix} -4 & 28 \\ -7 & 45 \end{bmatrix} - \begin{bmatrix} 10 & 0 \\ -10 & 40 \end{bmatrix}$

$= \begin{bmatrix} -15 & 40 \\ 1 & 33 \end{bmatrix}$

(c)   $(1+cot \ \theta - cosec \ \theta)(1 + tan \ \theta + sec \ \theta) = 2$

$LHS = (1+cot \ \theta - cosec \ \theta)(1 + tan \ \theta + sec \ \theta)$

$= (1 +$ $\frac{cos\ \theta}{sin\ \theta}$ $-$ $\frac{1}{sin\ \theta}$ $)(1 +$ $\frac{sin\ \theta}{cos\ \theta}$ $+$ $\frac{1}{cos\ \theta}$ $)$

$=$ $(\frac{sin\ \theta + cos\ \theta - 1}{sin \theta}) . ( \frac{cos\ \theta+sin\ \theta+1}{cos\ \theta})$

$=$ $\frac{(sin\ \theta + cos\ \theta)^2-1^2}{sin\ \theta \ cos\ \theta}$

$=$ $\frac{sin^2 \theta + cos^2 \theta - 2 sin\ \theta cos\ \theta-1}{sin\ \theta \ cos\ \theta}$

$=$ $\frac{2 sin\ \theta cos\ \theta}{sin\ \theta \ cos\ \theta}$

$= 2 = RHS$

Hence Proved

Question 7:

(a) Find the value of $k$ for which the following equation has equal roots.

$x^2+4kx+(k^2-k+2)=0$     [3]

(b) On a map drawn to a scale of $1:50000$, a rectangular plot of land $ABCD$ has the following dimensions. $AB = 6 \ cm$; $BC = 8 \ cm$ and all angles are right angles. Find :

(i) the actual length of the diagonal $AC$  of the plot in km

(ii) the actual area of the plot in sq. km     [3]

(c) $A(2,5), B(-1, 2)$ and $C(5,8)$ are the vertices of the triangle $ABC$, $M$ is a point on $AB$ such that $AM : MB = 1:2$. Find the coordinates of $M$. Hence find the equation of the line passing through the point $C$ and $M$.     [4]

(a)  Given $x^2+4kx+(k^2-k+2)=0$

Therefore $a = 1, b = 4k \ and \ c = (k^2-k+2)$

For equal roots, $b^2 - 4ac = 0$

$\Rightarrow 16k^2 - 4(k^2-k+2)= 0$

$\Rightarrow 16k^2- 4k^2 + 4k -8 = 0$

$\Rightarrow 12k^2 + 4k - 8 = 0$

$\Rightarrow 3k^2 + k - 2 = 0$

$\Rightarrow 3k^2 + 3k - 2k - 2 = 0$

$\Rightarrow 3k (k+1) - 2 (k+1) = 0$

$\Rightarrow (k+1)(3k-2) = 0$

$\Rightarrow k = -1 \ or \$ $\frac{2}{3}$

(b)  Scale is $1:50000$

(i) $AC = \sqrt{AB^2 +BC^2} = \sqrt{64+36} = \sqrt{100} = 10 \ cm$

Let the length of $AC$ be $x$ on the ground

Therefore $\frac{1}{50000}$ $=$ $\frac{10}{x}$ $\Rightarrow x = 500000 \ cm = 5 \ km$

(ii) $AB$ on the ground $= 6 \times 50000 = 300000 \ cm = 3 \ km$

$BC$ on the ground $= 8 \times 50000 = 400000 \ cm = 4 \ km$

Therefore Area of $ABCD = 3 \times 4 \ km^2 = 12 \ km^2$

(c)  $m_1 : m_2 = 1:2$ and $A(2,5), B(-1, 2)$ and $C(5,8)$

Let $M(x, y)$

$x =$ $\frac{m_1.x_2 + m_2.x_1}{m_1 + m_2}$ $=$ $\frac{1(-1) + 2(2)}{1+2}$ $=$ $\frac{3}{3}$ $= 1$

$y =$ $\frac{m_1.y_2 + m_2.y_1}{m_1 + m_2}$ $=$ $\frac{1(2) + 2(5)}{1+2}$ $=$ $\frac{12}{3}$ $= 4$

Hence $M(1, 4)$

Slope of $CM =$ $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ $=$ $\frac{8-4}{5-1}$ $=$ $\frac{4}{4}$ $= 1$

Therefore equation of $CM$

$y - y_1 = m(x- x_1)$

$\Rightarrow y - 4 = 1 (x- 1)$

$\Rightarrow y - x = 3$

$\\$

Question 8:

(a) Rs. 7500 was divided equally among a certain number of children. Had there been 20 less children each would have received Rs.100 more. Find the original number of students.     [3]

(b) If the mean of the following distribution is 24, find the value of $a$     [3]

(c) Using ruler and compass only, construct a $\triangle ABC$ such that $BC = 5 cm$ and $AB = 6.5 cm$ and $\angle ABC = 120^o$

(i) Construct a semi-circle of $\triangle ABC$

(ii) Construct a cyclic quadrilateral $ABCD$ , such that $D$ is equidistant  from $AB$ and $BC$.     [4]

(a)  Let the number of children be $= x$

Therefore if $x$ children received $7500 \ Rs.$

Then 1 child received $\frac{7500}{x}$ $\ Rs.$

Let the number of children be $= (x-20)$

Therefore if $(x-20)$ children received $7500 \ Rs.$

Then 1 child received $\frac{7500}{x-20}$ $\ Rs.$

Given $\frac{7500}{x-20}$ $-$ $\frac{7500}{x}$ $= 100$

$\Rightarrow \frac{75}{x-20}$ $-$ $\frac{75}{x}$ $= 1$

$75x-7x(x-20) = (x-20)x$

$x^2 - 20x - 1500= 0$

$(x+30)(x-50)=0 \Rightarrow x = -30 (not possible) \ or \ 50$

Therefore the number of children be $= 50$

(b)

Mean $(\overline{x}) =$ $\frac{\Sigma fx}{\Sigma f}$

$\Rightarrow 24 =$ $\frac{810+15a}{30+a}$

$\Rightarrow 720 + 24a = 810 + 15a$

$\Rightarrow 9a = 90$

$\Rightarrow a = 10$

Question 9:

(a) Priyanka has a recurring deposit account of Rs. 1000 per month at $10\%$ per annum. If she gets Rs. 5550 as interest at the time of maturity, find the total time for which the account was held.     [3]

(b) In $\triangle PQR$, $MN$ is parallel to $QR$  and $\frac{PM}{MQ}=\frac{2}{3}$

(i) Find $\frac{MN}{QR}$

(ii) Prove that $\triangle OMN$ and $\triangle ORQ$ are similar

(iii) Find, $Area \ of \ \triangle OMN : Area \ of \ \triangle ORQ$     [3]

(c) The following figure represents a solid consisting of a right circular cylinder with a hemisphere at one end and a cone at the other. Their common radius is $7 \ cm$. The height of the cylinder and cone is each $4 \ cm$. Find the volume of the solid.     [4]

(a)  Monthly Income $(x) = 1000 \ Rs.$

$r= 10\%, \ \ \ I = 5550 Rs. \ \ \ Number \ of \ months = n$

$I =$ $\frac{n(n+1)}{2}$ $\times$ $\frac{1}{12}$ $\times x \times$ $\frac{r}{100}$

$\Rightarrow 5550 =$ $\frac{n(n+1)}{2}$ $\times$ $\frac{1}{12}$ $\times 1000 \times$ $\frac{10}{100}$

$\Rightarrow n(n+1) =$ $\frac{5550 \times 2 \times 12}{100}$

$\Rightarrow n^2+n - 1332 = 0$

$\Rightarrow n^2 + 37n = 36n - 1332 = 0$

$\Rightarrow n(n+37)-36(n+37) = 0$

$\Rightarrow (n+37)(n-36) = 0$

$\Rightarrow n = -37 \ or \ 36$ (negative number is not possible)

Therefore $n = 36$

Therefore total time line$= 36$ months or $3$ years

(b)  (i) In $\triangle PMN$ and $\triangle PQR$

$\angle P$ is common

SInce $MN \parallel QR$

$\Rightarrow \angle PMN = \angle PQR$ and $\angle PNM = \angle PRQ$ (alternate angles)

Therefore $\triangle PMN \sim \triangle PQR$ (by AAA Postulate)

$\Rightarrow$ $\frac{PM}{PQ}$ $=$ $\frac{MN}{QR}$

$\Rightarrow$ $\frac{PM}{PM+MQ}$ $=$ $\frac{MN}{QR}$

Given $\frac{PM}{MQ}$ $=$ $\frac{2}{3}$

$\Rightarrow$ $\frac{2}{2+3}$ $=$ $\frac{MN}{QR}$

$\Rightarrow$ $\frac{MN}{QR}$ $=$ $\frac{2}{3}$

(ii) Consider $\triangle OMN$ & $\triangle OQR$

Since $MN \parallel QR$

$\angle MNQ = \angle OQR$ (alternate angles)

$\angle NMO = \angle ORQ$ (alternate angles)

Therefore $\triangle OMN \sim \triangle OQR$ (AAA Postulate)

(iii) $\frac{Area \ \triangle OMN}{Area \ \triangle ORQ}$ $=$ $\frac{MN^2}{QR^2}$ $=$ $(\frac{2}{5})^2$ $=$ $\frac{4}{25}$

(c)  Radius $(r) = 7 \ cm$, Height of Cylinder $(h) = 4 \ cm =$ Height of Cone $(h)$

Volume of total solid = Volume of Cone + Volume of Cylinder + Volume of Hemisphere

$=$ $\frac{1}{3}$ $\pi r^2 h + \pi r^2 h +$ $\frac{2}{3}$ $\pi r^3$

$= \pi r^2 ($ $\frac{h}{3}$ $+ h +$ $\frac{2}{3}$ $r)$

$= \pi r^2 ($ $\frac{4}{3}$ $h +$ $\frac{2}{3}$ $r)$

$=$ $\frac{22}{7}$ $\times 7^2 ($ $\frac{4}{3}$ $\times 4 +$ $\frac{2}{3}$ $\times 7)$

$= \frac{154}{3} \times (16+14) = 1540 cm^3$

(b) In the figure given below $O$ is the center of the circle.  If $OR=OP$ and $\angle ORP = 20^o$. Find the value of $x$ giving reasons.     [3]

(c) The angle of elevation from a point $P$ of the top of the tower $QR$ , $50 \ m$ high is $60^o$ and that the tower $PT$ from the point $Q$ is $30^o$. Find the height of the tower $PT$, correct to the nearest meter.     [4]

(a) $f(x) = 2x^3+3x^2-9x-10$

Let $x+1$ be a factor $\Rightarrow x = -1$

$f(-1) = 2(-1)^3+3(-1)^2-9(-1)-10 = -2 + 3 + 9 -10 = 0$

Therefore $x+1$ is a factor

Now dividing:

$x+1 ) \overline{2x^3+3x^2-9x-10} (2x^2+x-10$

$(-) \underline{2x^3+2x^2}$

$x^2-9x-10$

$(-) \underline{x^2+x}$

$-10x-10$

$(-) \underline {-10x-10}$

$\times$

$f(x) = (x+1) (2x^2+x-10)$

$= (x+1) (2x^2 + 5x-4x-10)$

$= (x+1) (2x+5)(x-2)$

(b)  $OP = OQ =$ Radius

$QR = OP$ (given)

Therefore $QR = OQ$

In $\triangle OQR$ since $OQ = QR$ (Isosceles triangle)

$\angle QOR = \angle QRO = 20^o$

$\angle OQP = 180^o-140^o = 40^o$

Since $\triangle OPQ$ is Isosceles triangle, $\angle OPQ = \angle OQP = 40^o$

Therefore $\angle POQ = 180 - 40 -40 = 100^o$

Therefore $x + 100^o + 20^o = 180^o$ (straight line)

$\Rightarrow x = 60^o$

(c) From $\triangle PRQ:$

$tan \ 60^o =$ $\frac{50}{x}$ $\Rightarrow x =$ $\frac{50}{\sqrt{3}}$

From $\triangle PTQ:$

$tan \ 30^o =$ $\frac{y}{\frac{50}{\sqrt{3}}}$ $\Rightarrow y =$ $\frac{50}{3}$ $= 16.67 \ m \approx 17 \ m$

Question 11:

(a) The $4^{th}$ term of an A.P. is 22 and $15^{th}$ term is 66. Find the first term and the common difference. Hence find the sum of the series to 8 terms.     [4]

(b) Use graph paper for this question

A survey regarding height (in cm) of 60 boys belonging to Class 10 of a school was conducted. The following data was recorded:

Taking 2 cm = height of 10 cm along one axis and 2 cm = 10 boys along the other axis draw an ogive of the above distribution. Use the graph to estimate the following:

 Height in cm 135-140 140-145 145-150 150-155 155-160 160-165 165-170 No of boys 4 8 20 14 7 6 1

(i) the median

(ii) the lower quartile

(iii) if above 158 cm is considered as a tall boy in a class, find the number of boys who are tall in the class.     [6]

(a)  $T_n = a+ (n-1)d$

$T_4: 22 = a+(4-1) d \Rightarrow a+ 3d = 22$ … … … … … (i)

$T_15: 66 = a+(15-1) d \Rightarrow a+ 14d = 66$ … … … … … (ii)

Solving (i) and (ii)

$a+ 14d = 66 \\ (-) \underline{a+ 3d = 22} \\ 11d = 44$

$\Rightarrow d = 4$

Substituting in (i)

$a+ 3 \times 4 = 22 \Rightarrow a = 10$

$S_n =$ $\frac{n}{2}$ $\{ 2a+ (n-1)d \}$

$S_8 =$ $\frac{8}{2}$ $\{ 2\times 10+ (8-1) \times 4 \}$

$= 4 (20+28) = 192$

(b)

 Wages No. workers $(f)$ Cumulative Frequency (c.f) $135-140$ $140-145$ $145-150$ $150-155$ $155-160$ $160-165$ $165-170$ $4$ $8$ $20$ $14$ $7$ $6$ $1$ $4$ $12$ $32$ $46$ $53$ $59$ $60$

On the graph paper, we plot the following points:

$(4, 140), (12, 145), (32, 150), (46,155), (53, 160), (59,165), (60,170)$

$n = 60$

(i) Median $=$ $(\frac{n}{2})^{th}$ $term =$ $\frac{60}{2}$ $=30^{th} term$

From the graph $30^{th} term=149$

(ii) Lower quartile $=$ $(\frac{n}{4})^{th}$ $term =$ $\frac{60}{4}$ $=15^{th} term$

From the graph $15^{th} term =146$

(iii) The number of boys $\geq 158 \ cm$ $= 60-50 = 10$ students
