MCQ 511 Mark
In $\triangle\text{ABC},$ a line XY parallel to BC cuts AB at X and AC at Y. If BY bisects $\angle\text{XYC},$ then:
  • $\text{BC} = \text{CY}$
  • B
    $\text{BC} = \text{BY}$
  • C
    $\text{BC}\neq\text{ CY}$
  • D
    $\text{BC}\neq\text{ BY}$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$\text{BC} = \text{CY}$
Given: XY || BC and BY is bisector of $\angle\text{XYC}.$

Since XY || BC
So, $\angle\text{YBC}=\angle\text{BYC}$ (Alternate angles)
Now, in triangle BYC two angles are equal. Therefore, the two corresponding sides will be equal.
Hence, BC = CY
Hence option (a) is correct.

In Fig, two line segments $A C$ and $B D$ intersect each other at the point $P$ such that $P A=6 cm, P B=3 cm, P C=2.5 cm, P D=5 cm, \angle A P B=50^{\circ}$ and $\angle C D P=30^{\circ}$. Then $\angle P B A$ is equal to
  • A
    (a) $50^{\circ}$
  • B
    $30^{\circ}$
  • C
    $60^{\circ}$
  • $100^{\circ}$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$100^{\circ}$
(D)$100^{\circ}$

In triangles $P A B$ and $P D C$, we have
$
\frac{P A}{P D}=\frac{P B}{P C} \text { and } \angle A P B=\angle C P D \qquad[Vertically$ $opposite$ $angles]$
So, by using SAS-criterion of similarity, we obtain
$
\triangle P B A \sim \triangle P D C \Rightarrow \angle D=\angle A \Rightarrow \angle A=30^{\circ}
$
Applying angle sum property in $\triangle P A B$, we obtain
$
\angle P+\angle A+\angle B=180^{\circ} \Rightarrow 50^{\circ}+30^{\circ}+\angle B=180^{\circ} \Rightarrow \angle B=100^{\circ}

Answer
Correct option: C.
$B C \times D E=A B \times E F$
(C)$B C \times D E=A B \times E F$
Given that $\triangle A B C \sim \triangle E D F$ and $\triangle A B C$ is not similar to $\triangle D E F$.
$
\begin{array}{ll}
\therefore \frac{A B}{E D}=\frac{B C}{D F}=\frac{A C}{E F} \text { and either } \frac{A B}{D E} \neq \frac{B C}{E F} \text { or, } \frac{B C}{E F} \neq \frac{A C}{D F} \text { or, } \frac{A B}{D E} \neq \frac{A C}{D F} \\
\Rightarrow \frac{A B}{E D}=\frac{B C}{D F}, \frac{A B}{E D}=\frac{A C}{E F} \text { and } \frac{B C}{D F}=\frac{A C}{E F} \\
\Rightarrow \quad A B \times D F=B C \times E D, A B \times E F=A C \times E D, B C \times E F=A C \times D F \\
\Rightarrow \quad \text { Options (d), (b) and (a) are true. }

If in two Iriangles $D E F$ and $P Q R, \angle D=\angle Q$ and $\angle R=\angle E$, then which of the following is not true?
  • A
    $\frac{L F}{P R}=\frac{D F}{P Q}$
  • $\frac{D E}{P Q}=\frac{E F}{R P}$
  • C
    $\frac{D E}{Q R}=\frac{D F}{P Q}$
  • D
    $\frac{E F}{R P}=\frac{D E}{Q R}$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$\frac{D E}{P Q}=\frac{E F}{R P}$
(B)$\frac{D E}{P Q}=\frac{E F}{R P}$
It is given that $\angle D=\angle Q$ and $\angle R=\angle E$. So, by using $\Lambda A$-criterion of similarity, we obtain
$
\Delta D E F-\triangle Q R P \Rightarrow \frac{D E}{Q R}=\frac{E F}{P R}=\frac{D F}{P Q} \Rightarrow \frac{E F}{P R}=\frac{D F}{P Q}, \frac{D E}{Q R}=\frac{E F}{P R}, \frac{D E}{Q R}=\frac{D F}{P Q}
$
Hence, option (a), (c) and (d) are true but option (b) is not true.

If in $\triangle A B C$ and $\triangle D E F, \frac{A B}{D E}=\frac{B C}{F D}$, then they will be similar, when
  • A
    $\angle B=\angle E$
  • B
    $\angle A=\angle D$
  • $\angle B=\angle D$
  • D
    $\angle A=\angle F$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$\angle B=\angle D$
(C)$\angle B=\angle D$
We have,
$
\frac{A B}{D E}=\frac{B C}{F D} \Rightarrow \frac{A B}{E D}=\frac{B C}{D F} \Rightarrow A \leftrightarrow E, B \leftrightarrow D \text { and } C \leftrightarrow F
$
Thus, $\triangle A B C \sim \triangle E D F$ and hence $\angle A=\angle E, \angle B=\angle D$ and $\angle C=\angle F$.

Answer
Correct option: B.
similar but not congruent
(B)similar but not congruent
In triangles $A C B$ and $D E F$, it is given that $\angle B=\angle E, \angle F=\angle C$. So by $A A$-criterion of similarity $\triangle A B C \sim \triangle D E F$. It is also given that $A B=3 D E$. So, $\triangle A B C$ is not congruent to $\triangle D E F$ as $A B \neq D E$. Thus $\triangle A B C \sim \triangle D E F$ but $\triangle A B C$ is not congruent to $\triangle D E F$.

Which of the following statements is correct about the triangles in the following figure?
Image
  • A
    $\triangle A O B \sim \triangle D O C$ because $\frac{A O}{D O}=\frac{B O}{C O}$.
  • B
    $\triangle A O B \sim \triangle D O C$ because $\angle A O B=\angle D O C$.
  • C
    $\triangle A O B-\triangle D O C$ because $\frac{A O}{D O}=\frac{B O}{C O}$ and $\angle B A O=\angle C D O$.
  • $\triangle A O B-\triangle D O C$ because $\frac{A O}{D O}=\frac{B O}{C O}$ and $\angle A O B=\angle D O C$.
Answer
Correct option: D.
$\triangle A O B-\triangle D O C$ because $\frac{A O}{D O}=\frac{B O}{C O}$ and $\angle A O B=\angle D O C$.
