Question

As we know a tree or a plant needs both soil and water along with sunlight to
grow. It will have the necessary nourishment in both water and sun to make its
leaves green and fruit to grow. A rural Indian school Gardner planted some
trees on his school at certain distances from the water body following a sequence.
There are 25 trees at equal distances of 5 meters in a line with a well, the
distance of the well from the nearest tree being 10 meters. A gardener waters
all the trees separately starting from the well and he returns to the well after
watering each tree to get water for the next.

(i) Distance travelled to water nearest tree and back to the well is:
(ii) Progression so formed in the above condition is
(iii) Distance travelled to water 25th tree.
OR
The total distance the gardener will cover in order to water all the trees.

✓

Answer

(i) 20m
(ii) 20, 30, 40, 50 .....
(iii) 260m OR 3500m

Read the following text carefully and answer the questions that follow:
Mary and John are very excited because they are going to go on a dive to see a sunken ship. The dive is quite shallow which is unusual because most sunken ship dives are found at depths that are too deep for two junior divers. However, this one is at 40 feet, so the two divers can go to see it.

They have the following map to chart their course. John wants to figure out exactly how far the boat will be from the sunken ship. Use the information in this lesson to help John figure out the following.
i. What are the coordinates of the boat and the sunken ship respectively?
ii. How much distance will Mary and John swim through the water from the boat to the sunken ship?
iii. If each square represents 160 cubic feet of water, how many cubic feet of water will Mary and John swim through from the boat to the sunken ship?
OR
If the distance between the points (x, -1) and (3, 2) is 5, then what is the value of x?

The discus throw is an event in which an athlete attempts to throw a discus. The athlete spins anti-clockwise around one and a half times through a circle, then releases the throw. When released the discus travels along tangent to the circular spin orbit.

In the given figure, $A B$ is one such tangent to a circle of radius 75 cm . Point $O$ is centre of the circle and $\angle A B O=30^{\circ}$. $P Q$ is parallel to $O A$.
Based on above information find the lengths of:
(i) $A B$ $\qquad$ (ii) $O B$ $\qquad$ (iii) $A P$ $\qquad$ (iv) $P Q$

A group of students conducted a survey to find out about the preferred mode of transportation to school among their classmates. They surveyed 200 students from their school. The results of the survey are as follows:
120 students preferred to walk to school.

10% of the students preferred to take the bus.
Remaining students preferred to be dropped off by car.
Based on the above information, answer the following questions:
(i) What is the probability that a randomly selected student does not prefer to walk to school?
(ii) Find the probability of a randomly selected student who prefers to walk or use a bicycle.
(iii)(A) One day 50% of walking students decided to come by bicycle. What is the probability that a randomly selected student comes to school using a bicycle on that day?
OR
(B) What is the probability that a randomly selected student prefers to be dropped off by car?

Smita always finds it confusing with the concepts of tangent and secant of a circle. But this time she has determined herself to get concepts easier. So, she started listing down the differences between tangent and secant of a circle, along with their relation. Here, some points in question form are listed by Smita in her notes. Try answering them to clear your concepts also.

The angle of elevation of the top of a chimney from the top of a tower is 60º and the angle of depression of the foot of the chimney from the top of the tower is 30º. If the height of the tower is 40m, find the height of the chimney. According to pollution control norms, the minimum height of a smoke emitting chimney should be 100m. State if the height of the above mentioned chimney meets the pollution norms. What value is discussed in this question?
