Question 31 Mark
If the bisector of the verical angle of a triangle bisects the base, then the triangle may be isosceles.
Answer
False.
Explanation:
The angular bisector of the vertex angle is also a mediam.
⇒ The tirnagle must be a isosceles and also may be an equilateral triangle.

Question 41 Mark
The two alitutde corresponding to two equal sides of a triangle need not be equal.
Answer
False.
Explanation: Since two sides are equal, the triangle is an isosceles triangle. The two altitudes corresponding to two equal side must be equal.

Question 51 Mark
The measure of each angle of an equilateral triangle 60º.
Answer
True.
Explanation:
Since all the three angles of equilateral triangles are equal and sum of the three angles is 180º, each angle will be equal to $\frac{180^\circ}{3}=60^\circ.$

Question 71 Mark
If the altitude from one vertex of a triangle bisects the opposite side, then the triangle may be isosceles.
Answer
False.
Explanation:
Here the altitude from the vertex is also the perpendicular bisector of the opposite side.
The triangle must be isosceles and may be an equilateral triangle.

Question 81 Mark
All the angles of a triangle can be equal to 60°.
Answer
True.
Explanation :
According to the angle sum property of the triangle In $\triangle\text{ABC}$
$\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}=180^\circ$ Now, if all the three angles of a triangle are equal to 60º Then, $\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}=180^\circ$

Question 91 Mark
Sum of the three angles of a triangle is 180°.
Answer
True.
Explanation:
According to the angle sum property of the triangle
In $\triangle\text{ABC}$
$\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}=180^\circ$

Question 101 Mark
An exterior angle of a triangle is less than either of its interior opposite angles.
Answer
False.
Explanation:
According to the exterior angle property, an exterior angle of a equal to the sum of the two opposite interior angles.
In $\triangle\text{ABC}$
Let x be the exterior angle
So,
$\text{x}=\angle\text{CAB}+\angle\text{CBA}$
Now, if x is less than either of its interior opposite angles
$\text{x}<\angle\text{CAB}+\angle\text{CBA}$

Question 111 Mark
Difference of any two sides of a triangle is equal to the third side.
Answer
False.
Explanation:
The difference of any two sides of a triangle is less than third side.
View full question & answer→
Question 121 Mark
Sum of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the third side.
Answer
True.
Explanation :
Given $\triangle\text{ABC},$ extend BA to D such that AD = AC.
Now in $\triangle\text{DBC},$
$\angle\text{ADC} = \angle\text{ACD } $ [Angles opposite to equal sides are equal]
Hence $\angle\text{BCD} > \angle\text{BDC}$
That is BD > BC [The side opposite to the larger (greater) angle is longer]
⇒ AB + AD > BC
$\therefore$ AB + AC > BC [Since AD = AC)
Thus sum of two sides of a triangle is always greater than third side.

Question 131 Mark
If one angle of a triangle is obtuse, then it cannot be a right angled triangle.
Answer
True.
Explanation :
According to the angle sum property of the triangle In $\triangle\text{ABC}$ $\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}=180^\circ$ Now, if a right angled triangle Then, $\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}=180^\circ$ $90^\circ+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}=180^\circ$ $\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}=90^\circ$ Also if one of the angle's is obtuse $\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}>90^\circ$ This is not possible. Thus, if one angle of a triangle is obtuse, then it cannot be a right angled triangle.

Question 151 Mark
The bisectors of two equal angles of a triangle are equal.
Answer
True.
Explanation: Since it an isosceles triangle, the lenghts of bisectors of the two equal angles are equal.

Question 161 Mark
Sum of any two sides of a triangle is greater than twice the median drown to the third side.
Answer
True.
Explanation :
Given: In triangle ABC, AD is the median drawn from A to BC. To prove: AB + AC > AD Construction: Produce AD to E so that DE = AD, Join BE. Proof: Now in $\triangle\text{ADC}$ and $\triangle\text{EDB},$ AD = DE (by const) DC = BD(as D is mid-point) $\angle\text{ADC}=\angle\text{EDB}$ $\big($vertically opp, $\angle\text{S}\big)$ Therefore, $\triangle\text{ABE}, ​​\triangle\text{ADC}\cong\triangle\text{EDB}$ (by SAS) This gives, BE = AC. AB + BE > AE AB + AC > 2AD $\big(\therefore$ AD = DE and BE = AC$\big)$ Hence the sum of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the median drawn to the third side.

Question 181 Mark
All the angles of a triangle can be less than 60°.
Answer
False.
Explanation:
According to the angle sum property of the triangle In $\triangle\text{ABC}$ $\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}=180^\circ$ Now, If all the three angles of a triangle is less than 60º Then, $\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}<180^\circ$

Question 191 Mark
A triangle can have two right angles.
Answer
False.
Explanation :
According to the angle sum property of the triangle In $\triangle\text{ABC}$ $\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}=180^\circ$ Now, if there are two right angles in the triangle Let $\angle\text{B}=\angle\text{C}=90^\circ$ Then, $\angle\text{A}+90^\circ+90^\circ=180^\circ$ $\angle\text{A}+180^\circ=180^\circ$ $\angle\text{A}=180^\circ-180^\circ$ $\angle\text{A}=0^\circ$ (This is not possible.)

Question 211 Mark
All the angles of a triangle can be greater than 60°.
Answer
False.
Explanation :
According to the angle sum property of the triangle In $\triangle\text{ABC}$ $\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}=180^\circ$ Now, if all the three angles of a triangle is greater than 60º Then, $\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}>180^\circ$

Question 221 Mark
A triangle can have at most one obtuse angles.
Answer
True.
Explanation :
According to the angle sum property of the triangle In $\triangle\text{ABC}$
$\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}=180^\circ$
Now, if a triangle will have more than one obtuse angle Then,
$\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}>180^\circ$
