,

y = 28 cm

X1/y1

9 / 12

x2/y2

x2/28

X2 = 9 * 28 /12

X2= 3 * 7s

X2 = 21 cm

Thus Model ship is 21 cm long.

Q 24 Find the height of a cuboid whose base area is 180 cm2 and volume is 900
cm3.

Ans Base area of a cuboid = 180 cm2

Volume of a cuboid = 900 cm3

Height of a cuboid = volume/base area

= 900 / 180

Thus height of a cuboid = 5 cm.

Q 25 Using suitable identity, evaluate:

(a)

1.05 * 0.95

(b) 9.7 * 9.8

Ans

(a)

1.05 * 0.95

= (1 + 0.05)(1-0.05)

= 1 0.0025 = .9975

(b) 9.7 * 9.8

= (9 + .7) (9 + .8)

= (9)2 + (.7 + .8) * 9 + (.7 * .8)

=81 + (1.5) * 9 + (.56)

= 95.06

Q 26 multiply (2 / 3 xy) * (-9 / 10 x2y2)

Ans (2 / 3 xy) * (-9 / 10 x2y2)

= (2 / 3 * -9 / 10) xy * x2y2

= -3 / 5 x3y3

Q 27 Using identity solve 992

Ans

992

= (100 1)2

(a b) 2 = a2 +b2 -2ab

= (100) 2 + (1) 2 2(100) (1)

= 10000 + 1 -200

= 10001 200

= 9801

Q 28 Subtract 3xy 5yz- 7zx from 5xy 2yz -2zx + 10xyz

Ans (5xy 2yz -2zx + 10xyz) (3xy 5yz- 7zx)

= 5xy 2yz -2zx + 10xyz 3xy + 5yz + 7zx

= 5xy 3xy 2yz + 5yz -2zx + 7zx + 10xyz

= 2xy +3yz + 5zx +10xyz

Q 29 A field is 60 m long and 24 m broad. In one corner of the filed, a pit which is 8
m long 6.5m broad and 4 m deep has been dug out. The earth taken out of it is
evenly spread over the remaining part of the field. Find the rise in the level of the
filed.

Ans area of the filed = (60 * 24) m

= 1440 m2

Area of th pit = (8 * 6.5) m

= 52m2

Area over the remaining part of the filed = (1440 52) m2

= 1388 m2

Volume of earth dug out = 8 * 6.5 * 4

= 208 m2

Rise in level = Volume of earth dug out/area over the remaining part of filed

=208/1388 m

= 208 * 100/1388 cm

= 10.4 cm

Q 30 If x 1/x = 6 find (x2 + 1 / x2) and x4 + 1 / x4

Ans x 1 / x = 6 = (x 1 / x) 2 = (6)2

= x2 + 1 / x2 2 = 36

= x2 + 1 / x2= 38

=(x2 + 1 / x2)2= (38)2

= x4 + 1 / x4+ 2 = 1444

= x4 + 1 / x4= 1444

Q 31 A square park has been each side of 100 m. At each corner there is a flower
bed in the form of a quadrant of radius 14m as shown in fig. Find the area of the
remaining part of the park. (Take =22 / 7)

AnsArea of each quadrant of radius = 14 cm

= 1 / 4 (r2)

=1 / 4 * 142

= 1 / 4 * 22 / 7 * 14 *14

= 154 m2

Area of 4 quadrants = (4 * 154) m2 = 616 m2

Side of square = 100 m

Area of square = (100 * 100) m2

= 10000 m2

Area of the remaining part of the park

= (1000 616) m2

= 9384 m2

Q 32 Factories:

(a)

8x3 18 xy2

(b) 3x2 + 12x 36

(c)

X2 + 4xy +4y2 9z2

Ans

(a)

8x3 18 xy2

= 2x (4x2 9y2)

= 2x (2x + 3y) (2x 3y)

= 2x (2x + 3y) (2x 3y)

[By using a2 b2 = (a + b) (a b)]

(b) 3x2 + 12x 36

= 3 (x2 + 4x 12)

= 3 (x2 + 6x -2x 12)

= 3 [x (x + 6) 2 (x + 6)]

= 3 [(x 2) (x +6)]

(c)

X2 + 4xy +4y2 9z2

= (x2 + 4xy + 4y2) 9z2

= (x + 2y) 2 (9z2)

=(x +2y + 3z) (x + 2y -3z)

= (x + 2y + 3z) (x + 2y 3z)

Q 33 Subtract: 3a (a + b + c) -2b (a b + c) from 4c (- a + b + c)

Ans 3a (a + b + c) -2b (a b + c) from 4c (- a + b + c)

= 4c (- a + b + c) [3a (a + b + c) -2b (a b + c)]

= 4ca + 4bc +4c2 [(3a2 + 3ab + 3ac) 2ba +2b2 2bc)]

= 4ca + 4bc +4c2 [3a2 + 3ab + 3ac 2ba +2b2 2bc]

= 4ca +4bc +4c2 [+ 3ac -2bc + 3a2 + 2b2 + 3ab]

= 4ca +4bc +4c2 3ac +2bc 3a2 2b2 3ab

= 7ac + 6bc 3a2 2b2 +4c2 3ab

= 7ac + 6bc 3ab 3a2 2b2 +4c2
