- A
$\frac{3}{2}\text{AB}$
- ✓
$2\text{AB}$
- C
$3\text{AB}$
- D
$\frac{5}{4}\text{AB}$
AnswerCorrect option: B. $2\text{AB}$
$BE || AD$
$\Rightarrow BE || AD$
Now, consider $\triangle\text{FAD}$
$BE || AD$
Also $\frac{\text{BE}}{\text{AD}}=\frac{1}{2}$
In $\triangle\text{FBE}$ and $\triangle\text{FAD},$
$\angle\text{FAD}=\angle\text{FBE}$ {Corresponding angles}
$\angle\text{ADF}=\angle\text{BEF}$ {Corresponding angles}
$\angle\text{F} =\angle\text{F}$ {Common}
Hence, $\triangle\text{FBE}\sim\triangle\text{FAD}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{BF}}{\text{AF}}=\frac{\text{BE}}{\text{AD}}=\frac{1}{2}$
$\Rightarrow1-\frac{\text{BF}}{\text{AF}}=1-\frac{1}{2}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{AF}-\text{BF}}{\text{AF}}=\frac{1}{2}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{AB}}{\text{AF}}=\frac{1}{2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{AF}=\text{2AB}$ View full question & answer→MCQ 21 Mark

- A
$75^\circ $
- B
$60^\circ$

Answer
$P, Q, R$ & $S$ are the mid-points of $AB, BC, CD$ & $AD$ respectively.
Consider $\triangle\text{ADB},$
If in a triangle, the mid-points of two sides are joint by a line then the line is parallel to the third side.
$\Rightarrow\text{PS}||\text{DB}$ in $\triangle\text{ADB}$
Similarly in $\triangle\text{CDB},$
$RQ || DB$
Hence $PS || RQ ...(1)$
Similarly in $\triangle\text{ABC}$ and $\triangle\text{ADC}$
$SR || AC, PQ || AC$
$⇒ SR || PQ ...(2)$
From eq. $(1)$ and $(2)$, $PQRS$ is a parallelogram. View full question & answer→MCQ 41 Mark

$\angle\text{AOD}=\angle\text{COB}=90^\circ$
$AD = BC$ (Sides of Rhombus)
$AO = CO$ (Diagonals bisects each other)

Let $ABCD$ be a parallelogram and $\angle\text{A}=\frac{2}{3}\angle\text{B}$
Also, $\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}=180^\circ$ (Adjacent angles in a parallelogram are supplementry)
$\Rightarrow\frac{2}{3}\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{B}=180^\circ$

We get a rhombus by joining the mid-points of the sides of a:
Answer
$\text{PR}||\text{AD}\Rightarrow\text{AB}\not\bot\text{AD}$
$\text{QS}||\text{AB}\Rightarrow\text{PR}\not\bot\text{QS}$
Since diagonals of $PQRS$ are not making $90^\circ$ between them,
$PQRS$ is not a Rhombus.
$P, Q, R$ and $S$ are the mid-points,
$PR$ and $QS$ are diagonals of quadrilateral PQRS.
$PR || AD, QS || AB$
Because they are Formed by joning of mid-points of sides of Rhombus $ABCD$.
$AD$ is not $\bot$ to $AB$
$\Rightarrow PR$ will not be $\bot$ to QS
i.e angle between diagonals $PR$ & $QS$ is not $90^\circ$.
So, $PQRS$ is not a Rhombus.
$PR$ and $QS$ are making $90^\circ$ with each - other.
Because $PR || AD, QS || AB$ and $\text{AD}\perp\text{AB}$
So $PR$ and $QS$ are diagonals of $PQRS$ and are $\perp$ to each other.
Hence , $PQRS$ is a Rhombus.
By joining the mid-points of sides of a triangle, no quadrilateral is formed. View full question & answer→MCQ 71 Mark

AnswerCorrect option: D. $90^\circ$
In a parallelogram, sum of adjacent angles $= 180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow \angle \text{A}+\angle\text{B}=180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\angle\text{A}}{2}+\frac{\angle\text{B}}{2}=90^\circ\ ...(1)$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{OAB}=\frac{\angle\text{A}}{2}$ and $\angle\text{OBA}=\frac{\angle\text{B}}{2}$
Thus, $\angle\text{OAB}+\angle\text{OBA}=90^\circ$ [From eq $(1)$]
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{AOB}=180^\circ-(\angle\text{OAB}+\angle\text{OBA})=180^\circ-90^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{AOB}=90^\circ$ View full question & answer→MCQ 81 Mark
The figure formed by joining the mid-points of the adjacent sides of a rectangle is a:
Answer
$PQ || AC$ (since in $\triangle\text{ABC}$ mid-points of $AB$ & $BC$ are meeting by $PQ$)
Similarly, $SR || AC$
$\Rightarrow PQ || SR$
Now in $\triangle\text{ABD}$ and $\triangle\text{CBD},$

The figure formed by joining the mid-points of the adjacent sides of a parallelogram is a:
Answer
$PQ || SR || AC$
$QR || PS || BD$
{Because line joining the mid-points of two sides of triangle is $||$ to third side}
Now because $AC$ is not prependicular to $BD$ in parallelogram,
$\Rightarrow SR$ is not perpendicular to $QR$
Also $\triangle\text{ASP}\not\cong\triangle\text{DRS}$
$\Rightarrow \text{PS} \neq \text{SR}$

$A$ line $DG$ is drawn parallel to $EF$ to meet $AC$.
$FE || DG$ and $FE || GH$
Now, consider $\triangle\text{ADG}.$
$E$ is the mid-point of $AD$ and $EF$ is line from $E\ ||$ to Base $DG$.
So by property, it will meet $AG$ at its midpoint
i.e. $F$ is midpoint of $AG$.
$\Rightarrow AF = FG ...(1)$
Now, consider $\triangle\text{FBC}\ \&\ \triangle\text{GDC}$
$FE\ ||\ GH$ and $FE\ ||\ GD$
$D$ is mid-point of $BC$.
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{DC}}{\text{BC}}=\frac{1}{2}\dots(2)$
Because $\triangle\text{FBC}\sim\triangle\text{GDC},$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{GC}}{\text{FC}}=\frac{1}{2}$
$\Rightarrow FC = 2GC$
or $FG = GC ...(3)$
From equation $(1)$ and $(3)$
$AF = FG = GC$

In $\triangle\text{ABD},$
$\angle\text{BDA}+\angle\text{ABD}+\angle\text{DAB}=180^\circ$
$\angle\text{ABD}=50^\circ$ and $\angle\text{DAB}=90^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{BDA}=180^\circ-90^\circ-50^\circ=40^\circ$
Consider $\triangle\text{ABD}\ \&\ \triangle\text{BAC}$
$\text{AD}=\text{BC},\ \angle\text{DAB}=\angle\text{ABC}=90^\circ,\text{BD}=\text{AC}$
Hence, by $RHS$ property $\triangle\text{ABD}\cong\triangle\text{BAC}$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{ABD}=\angle\text{BAC}=50^\circ$
Now, consider $\triangle\text{ABP}$
$\angle\text{PAB}+\angle\text{PBA}+\angle\text{APB}=180^\circ$
$\angle\text{PAB}=\angle\text{BAC}=50^\circ$
$\angle\text{PAB}=\angle\text{ABD}=50^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{APB}=180^\circ-50^\circ-50^\circ=80^\circ$

Answer
$AR, BR, CP, DP$ are the bisectors of angles of parallelogram.
Because two bisectors of adjacent angles make $90^\circ $ between them So $PQRS$ is a Rectangle
Because DP and BR are acute angle bisectors so the distance between them $PQ < PS$ (The distance between other two bisectors) So $\text{PQ}\neq\text{PS}$ (So $PQRS$ is not a square, but only a rectangle) View full question & answer→MCQ 211 Mark

If in any triangle, all the mid-points (of each sides) are joined to form a triangle, then that triangle is similian to a parent triangle.
i.e.$\triangle\text{QPR}\sim\triangle\text{ABC}$
So angles of $\triangle\text{PQR}$ will be same as angles of $\triangle\text{ABC}.$

$ABCD$ is a parallelogram and $E$ and $F$ are the centroids of triangles $ABD$ and $BCD$ respectively, then $EF =$
Answer
Centroid is the point where all medians of a meet.
In $\triangle\text{ABD},$ $E$ is the centroid,
And in $\triangle\text{BCD},$ F is the centroid.
By the property of centroid, centroid divides a median in $2 : 1$
So from figure,
$\frac{\text{AE}}{\text{EO}}=\frac{2}{1}\Rightarrow\text{EO}=\frac{\text{AE}}{2}\ ...(1)$
Also $\frac{\text{CF}}{\text{FO}}=\frac{2}{1}\Rightarrow\text{FO}=\frac{\text{CF}}{2}\ ...(2)$
Because $AC$ is a digonal of a parallelogram, $O$ is its midpoint.
$\Rightarrow OA = OC$
$\Rightarrow AE = CF$
Adding equations $(1)$ & $(2)$,
$\text{EO + FO} =\frac{\text{AE}+\text{CF}}{2}=\frac{\not2\text{AE}}{\not2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{EF}=\frac{\not2\text{AE}}{\not2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{EF}=\text{AE}$ View full question & answer→MCQ 231 Mark

$\angle\text{ABM}=\angle\text{CBM}\ ...(1)$ $($BM bisects $\angle\text{B})$
$\angle\text{ABM}=\angle\text{MDC}\ ...(2)$ (Alternate angles)
$\angle\text{CBM}=\angle\text{ADM}\ ...(3)$ (Alternate angles)
From equations $(1), (2)$ & $(3)$
$\angle\text{MDC}=\angle\text{ADM}...(4)$
Now, consider $\triangle\text{ABM}$ & $\triangle\text{CBD}$
$\angle\text{CBD}=\angle\text{ABD}$ {from eq $(1)$}
$DB = DB$ (Common)

Hence, by ASA property,
$\triangle\text{ADB}\cong\triangle\text{CBD}$

AnswerCorrect option: A. $\angle\text{P}=100^\circ,\angle\text{Q}=80^\circ,\angle\text{R}=100^\circ$
In a parallelogram, opposite corner angles are equal and sum of adjacent angles $= 108^\circ$
Hence, in quadrrilateral $PQRS$,
