  • B
    $2$ triangles and $3$ parallelogram.
  • C
    $8$ triangles.
  • D
    $1$ pentagon and $5$ triangles.
Answer
Correct option: A.
$3$ triangles.
A polyhedron is bounded by more than four polygonal faces. But in case of $3$ triangles, it is not possible. So, option $(a)$ does not form a polyhedron.

The net shown below can be folded into the shape of a cube. The face marked with the letter L is opposite to the face marked with which letter?
  • $M$
  • B
    $N$
  • C
    $Q$
  • D
    $O$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$M$


Clearly, the given net is a cube. If we fold it into a cube, then $N$ will face opposite to $R Q$ on the top and $0$ on the bottom. So, $L$ faces opposite to $M.$

MCQ 31 Mark
Side of a square garden is 30m. If the scale used to draw its picture is $1\ cm: 5\ m$, the perimeter of the square in the picture is
  • A
    $20\ cm$
  • $24\ cm$
  • C
    $28\ cm$
  • D
    $30\ cm$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$24\ cm$
Given, side of a square garden $= 30m$
$\therefore$ Perimeter of square $= 4 \times $ Side
$\therefore$ Perimeter of a square garden $= 4 \times 30m = 120m$
Scale used to draw its picture $= 1cm: 5cm$
Hence, the perimeter of a square in the picture $=\frac{120}{5}=24\text{cm}$

MCQ 41 Mark
In the given map, the distance between the places is shown using the scale $1\ cm : 0.5\ km.$ Then the actual distance $($in $km)$ between school and the book shop is:
  • A
    $1.25$
  • B
    $2.5$
  • C
    $2$
  • $1.1$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$1.1$
Given, scale $1cm = 0.5km.$
The distance between school and the book shop shown in map is equal to $2.2cm.$ So, the actual distance between them will be $= 2.2 \times 0.5km.$
$= 1.1km$

MCQ 51 Mark
We have $4$ congruent equilateral triangles. What do we need more to make a pyramid?
  • A
    An equilateral triangle.
  • A square with same side length as of triangle.
  • C
    $2$ equilateral triangles with side length same as triangle.
  • D
    $2$ squares with side length same as triangle.
Answer
Correct option: B.
A square with same side length as of triangle.
We know that, a pyramid is a polyhedron, whose base is a polygon and lateral faces are triangles. But in the question, we have only $4$ congruent equilateral triangles. Thus, we have to add a polygon in the base of atleast a four-sided figure.
Hence, option $(b)$ is required to make a pyramid.

MCQ 81 Mark
Which of the following cannot be true for a polyhedron?
  • A
    $V = 4, F = 4, E = 6.$
  • B
    $V = 6, F = 8, E = 12.$
  • C
    $V = 20, F = 12, E = 30.$
  • $V = 4, F = 6, E = 6.$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$V = 4, F = 6, E = 6.$
We know that, Euler’s formula for any polyhedron is $\text{F + V - E} = 2$
Where, $F =$ faces, $V =$ vertices
$E =$ edges
$a. V = 4, F = 4$ and $E = 6$
$\text{LHS = F + V - E}$
$= 4 + 4 - 6$
$= 8 - 6 = 2$
$= \text{RHS}$
$\therefore $ Option $(a)$ is true for a polyhedron.
$b. V = 6, F = 8 $and $E = 12$
$\text{LHS = F + V - E}$
$= 8 + 8 -12$
$= 14 - 12 = 2$
$= \text{RHS}$
$\therefore$ Option $(b)$ isyrue for a polyhedron.
$c. V = 20, F = 12$ and $E = 30.$
$\text{LHS = F + V - E.}$
$= 12 + 20 - 30.$
$= 32 - 30 = 2.$
$= \text{RHS}..$
$\therefore$ Option $(c)$ is true for a polyhedron.​​​​​​​
$d. V = 4, F = 6$ and $E = 6.$
$\text{LHS = F + V - E.}$
$= 6 + 4 - 6.$
$=10-6=4\neq\text{RHS}$.
$\therefore$ Option $(d)$ is not true a polyhedron.

Which of the following is not a prism?
  • A
  • C
  • D
Answer
Correct option: B.
 


We know that, a prism is a polyhedron whose bottom and top faces are congruent polygons and faces known as lateral faces are parallelograms. Clearly in option (b) figure, bottom and top faces are not congruent polygons and also lateral faces are not parallelograms.

MCQ 111 Mark
Which of the nets given below will generate a cone?
  • B
  • C
  • D
Answer
Correct option: A.



Option (a) net diagram gives a cone because other options has no circular base.
Since, a cone is a solid figure which has a circular base and it tapers from a circular base to a point called vertex.

Which of the following $3D$ shapes does not have a vertex?
  • A
    Pyramid.
  • B
    Prism.
  • C
    Cone.
  • Sphere.
Answer
Correct option: D.
Sphere.
As we kndw that, a vertex is a meeting point of two or more edges. Since, a sphre has only one curved face, so it has no vertex and no edges.

MCQ 131 Mark
In a blueprint of a room, an architect has shown the height of the room as $33cm.$ If the actual height of the room is $330cm,$ then the scale used by her is:
  • A
    $1:11$
  • $1:10$
  • C
    $1:100$
  • D
    $1:3$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$1:10$
Given, in a blueprint height of the room $= 33\ cm$, and actual height of the room $= 330\ cm$
We know that,
$\text{Scale of map}=\frac{\text{Size drawn}}{\text{Actual size}}$
$=\frac{33}{330}=\frac{1}{10}$

MCQ 151 Mark
Which amongst the following is not a polyhedron?
  • A
  • B
  • D
Answer
Correct option: C.



According to the definition of a polyhedron, option (c) figure does not satisfies the condition of a polyhedron.
Since, a solid is a polyhedron if it is made up of only polygonal-faces, the faces meet at edges with one line segment and the edges meeting at a point. The point is generally called as vertex. But all the faces of option (c) are not polygons, there is a circular base, so the figure is not a polyhedron

Euler formula for any polyhedron is
$F + V - E = 2$
Given, $F = V = 5$
On puttting the values of $F$ and $V$ in the Euler's formula, we get
$5 + 5 - E = 2$
$\Rightarrow 10 - E = 2 \Rightarrow E - 8$
Note: $F =$ fraces, $V =$ vertices and $E =$ edges.
