Question 13 Marks
Two poles of $10m$ and $15m$ stand upright on a plane ground. If the distance between the tops is $13m,$ find the distance between their feet.
Answer


Let $BC = x m$
In right angled $\triangle\text{ACB},$
$A B^2=A C^2+B C^2 \text { [by Pythagoras theoram] }$
$\Rightarrow(13)^2=(5)^2+x^2$
$\Rightarrow 169-25=x^2$
$\Rightarrow 144=x^2$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=\sqrt{144}$
$\Rightarrow\text{x}=12\text{m}$
Hence, the distance between the feet of two poles is $12m.$

Question 53 Marks
Points $A$ and $B$ are on the opposite edges of a pond as shown in Figure. To find the distance between the two points, the surveyor makes a right-angled triangle as shown. Find the distance $AB.$
Answer
Since, $\triangle\text{ACD},$ is a right angled triangle.
In right angled $\triangle\text{ADC},$ by Pythagoras theoram.
$(A C)^2=(A D)^2+(C D)^2$
$\Rightarrow(A C)^2=(30)^2+(40)^2[\because A D=30 \mathrm{~cm} \text { and } C D=40 \mathrm{~cm} \text {, given }]$
$\Rightarrow(A C)^2=900+1600$
$\Rightarrow(A C)^2=2500$
$\Rightarrow A C=\sqrt{2500}$
$\therefore A C=50 \mathrm{~m}$
Now, $A B=A C-B C=50-12=38 \mathrm{~m}$
Hence, the distance $A B$ is $38 m .$

Question 93 Marks
If the sides of a triangle are produced in an order, show that the sum of the exterior angles so formed is $360^\circ .$
Answer
In $\triangle\text{ABC},$ by exterior angle property,

$\text{Exterior}\angle1=\text{Interior}\angle\text{A}+\text{Interior}\angle\text{B}....(\text{i})$
$\text{Exterior}\angle2=\text{Interior}\angle\text{B}+\text{Interior}\angle\text{C}....(\text{ii})$
$\text{Exterior}\angle3=\text{Interior}\angle\text{A}+\text{Interior}\angle\text{C}....(\text{iii})$
On adding Equation $(i), (ii)$ and $(iii),$ we get $\angle1+\angle2+\angle3$
$=2(\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}=180^{\circ})$
$\Rightarrow\angle1+\angle2+\angle3=2\times180^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow\angle1+\angle2+\angle3=360^{\circ}$
Hence, the sum of exterior angles is $360^\circ .$

Question 103 Marks
Height of a pole is $8 m.$ Find the length of rope tied with its top from a point on the ground at a distance of $6 m$ from its bottom.
Answer
Given, height of a pole is $8 m$. Distance between the bottom of the pole and a point on the ground is $6 m.$ On the basis of given information. we can draw the following figure:

Let the length of the rope be $x\ m.$
$\because AB = $ Height of the pole
$BC =$ Distance between the bottom of the pole and a point on ground,
where rope was tied To find the length of the rope,
we will use pythagoras theoram, in right angled $\triangle\text{ABC}.$
$(A C)^2=(A B)^2+(B C)^2$
$\Rightarrow(x)^2=(8)^2+(6)^2$
$\Rightarrow x^2=64+36$
$\Rightarrow x^2=100$
$\Rightarrow x=\sqrt{100}=10 \mathrm{~m}$
Hence, the legnth of the rope is $10 m .$

Question 113 Marks
In figure. find the measures of $\angle\text{x}$ and $\angle\text{y}.$
Answer
Since, $\angle\text{y}$ and $45^\circ $ form a linerar pair.
So, $\angle\text{y}+45^{\circ}=180^{\circ} [\because$ linear pair has sum of $180^\circ ]$
$\Rightarrow \ \angle\text{y}=180^{\circ}-45^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \ \angle\text{y}=135^{\circ}$
$\because$ The sum of all angles in atriangle is equal to $180^\circ $
So, $45^\circ + 60^\circ + \angle\text{x}=180^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \ 105^{\circ}+\angle\text{x}=180^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \ \angle\text{x}=180^{\circ}-105^{\circ}=75^{\circ}$

Question 123 Marks
Jayanti takes shortest route to her home by walking diagonally across a rectangular park. The park measures $60$ metres $\times \ 80$ metres. How much shorter is the route across the park than the route around its edges$?$
Answer
As the park is rectangular, ail the angles are of $90^\circ .$
In right angled $\triangle \mathrm{ABC}, \mathrm{AC}^2=\mathrm{AB}^2+\mathrm{BC}^2$ [by pythagoras theoram]
$\Rightarrow A C^2=(60)^2+(80)^2=3600+6400$
$\Rightarrow A C^2=(60)^2=10000$
$\Rightarrow A C=\sqrt{10000}$
$\Rightarrow A C=100 \mathrm{~m}$
IF she goes through $A B$ and $A C$, then total distance covered $=(60+80) \mathrm{m}=140 \mathrm{~m}$
$\therefore$ Difference between two paths $=(140-100) \mathrm{m}=40 \mathrm{~m}$

Answer
In figure. $\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}=180^{\circ} [$sum of all angles of a triangle is $180^\circ ]$
$\Rightarrow 90^\circ + a + 70^\circ = 180^\circ $
$[\because\angle\text{A}=90^\circ $ and $\angle\text{C }=70^\circ ,$ from the figure$]$
$\Rightarrow a + 160^\circ = 180^\circ $

Question 173 Marks
If one angle of a triangle is $60^\circ $ and the other two angles are in the ratio $1 : 2,$ find the angles.
Answer
Given, one angle of a triangle is $60^\circ .$
Let the other two angles be $x$ and $2x.$
We know that, the sum of all angles in triangle is equal to $180^\circ .$
So, $x + 2x + 60^\circ = 180^\circ $
$\Rightarrow 3x = 180^\circ - 60^\circ $
$\Rightarrow x = 40^\circ $
So, the other two angles will be $x = 40^\circ $ and
$2x = 2 \times 40^\circ = 80^\circ .$

Question 203 Marks
In Figure. if $y$ is five times $x,$ find the value of $z.$
Answer
Given, $y = 5x$
According to the angle sum property of a triangle.
$60^\circ + x + y = 180^\circ $
$ \Rightarrow 60^\circ + x + 5x = 180^\circ $
$[\because\text{y}=5\text{x}]$
$\Rightarrow 60^\circ + 6x = 180^\circ $
$\Rightarrow 6x = 180^\circ - 60^\circ = 120^\circ $
$\Rightarrow \ \text{x}=\frac{120^{\circ}}{6}=20^{\circ}$
$\therefore\text{y}=5\text{x}=5\times20=100^{\circ}$
According to the exterior angle property.

$\angle\text{DAC}=30^{\circ},\angle\text{ADC}=\text{y}$ and $\angle\text{ACD}=\text{z}$
We know that, the sum of all angles in triangle is equal to $180^\circ .$
In $\triangle\text{ABD},$
$\angle\text{BAD}+\angle\text{ABD}+\angle\text{ADB}=180^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \ 60^{\circ}+60^{\circ}+\text{x}=180^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \ 120^{\circ}+\text{x}=180^{\circ}$

Now, $[\because$ exterior angle is equal to the sum of interior opposite angles$]$
$\Rightarrow\text{y}=60^{\circ}+60^{\circ}$
$\therefore\text{y}=120^{\circ}$
In $\triangle\text{ADC},$
$\angle\text{DAC}+\angle\text{ADC}+\angle\text{ACD}=180^{\circ} [$angle sum property of triangle$]$
$\Rightarrow \ 30^{\circ} + 120^{\circ} + \text{z} = 180^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \ 150^{\circ}+\text{z}=180^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \ \text{z}=180^{\circ}-150^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \ \text{z}=30^{\circ}$
Hence, $x = 60^\circ , y = 120^\circ $ and $z = 30^\circ $
