  • A
    $\frac{3}{2}\text{AB}$
  • $2\text{AB}$
  • C
    $3\text{AB}$
  • D
    $\frac{5}{4}\text{AB}$
Answer
Correct 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, $\triangle\text{FBE}\sim\triangle\text{FAD}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{BF}}{\text{AF}}=\frac{\text{BE}}{\text{AD}}=\frac{1}{2}$
$\Rightarrow1-\frac{\text{BF}}{\text{AF}}=1-\frac{1}{2}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{AF}-\text{BF}}{\text{AF}}=\frac{1}{2}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{AB}}{\text{AF}}=\frac{1}{2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{AF}=\text{2AB}$

MCQ 61 Mark
We get a rhombus by joining the mid $-$ points of the sides of a:
  • A
    Parallelogram.
  • B
    Rhombus.
  • Rectangle.
  • D
    Triangle.
Answer
Correct option: C.
Rectangle.

$\text{PR}\|\text{AD}$
$\Rightarrow\text{AB}\not\bot\text{AD}$
$\text{QS}\|\text{AB}$
$\Rightarrow\text{PR}\not\bot\text{QS}$
Since diagonals of $\text{PQRS}$ are not making $90^\circ$ between them,
$\text{PQRS}$ is not a Rhombus.

$P, Q, R$ and $S$ are the mid $-$ points,
$PR$ and $QS$ are diagonals of quadrilateral $\text{PQRS}.$
$PR \| AD, QS \| AB$
Because they are Formed by joning of mid $-$ points of sides of Rhombus $\text{ABCD}.$
$AD$ 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, $\text{PQRS}$ 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 $\text{PQRS}$ and are $\perp$ to each other.
Hence , $\text{PQRS}$ is a Rhombus.​​​​​​​

By joining the mid $-$ points of sides of a triangle, no quadrilateral is formed.

  • A
    $30^\circ$
  • B
    $45^\circ$
  • C
    $60^\circ$
  • $90^\circ$
Answer
Correct 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 $(1)]$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{AOB}=180^\circ-(\angle\text{OAB}+\angle\text{OBA})=180^\circ-90^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{AOB}=90^\circ$

$PS \| BD$ and $QR \| BD$
$\Rightarrow PS\| QR$
Hence, $\text{PQRS}$ is a parallelogram.
But $\text{PR }\bot \text{ QS}$
$\Rightarrow$ Diagonals cut at $90^\circ$
$\Rightarrow \text{PQRS}$ is a Rhomus.

The figure formed by joining the mid $-$ points of the adjacent sides of a parallelogram is a:
  • A
    Rectangle.
  • Parallelogram.
  • C
    Rhombus.
  • D
    Square.
Answer
Correct option: B.
Parallelogram.

$PQ \| SR \| AC$
$QR \| PS \| BD$
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 $\triangle\text{ASP}\not\cong\triangle\text{DRS}$
$\Rightarrow \text{PS} \neq \text{SR}$
$\Rightarrow \text{PQRS}$ is just a parallelogram.

$A$ 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 $(3)$
$AF = FG = GC$
$\Rightarrow\text{AF}=\frac{\text{AC}}{3}=\frac{10.5}{3}=3.5\text{cm}$

$\angle\text{BDA}+\angle\text{ABD}+\angle\text{DAB}=180^\circ$
$\angle\text{ABD}=50^\circ$ 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 $\text{RHS}$ property $\triangle\text{ABD}\cong\triangle\text{BAC}$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{ABD}=\angle\text{BAC}=50^\circ$
Now, consider $\triangle\text{ABP}$
$\angle\text{PAB}+\angle\text{PBA}+\angle\text{APB}=180^\circ$
$\angle\text{PAB}=\angle\text{BAC}=50^\circ$
$\angle\text{PAB}=\angle\text{ABD}=50^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{APB}=180^\circ-50^\circ-50^\circ=80^\circ$
Now, $\angle\text{APB}=\angle\text{DPC} ($Opposite angles$)$

The bisectors of the angle of a parallelogram enclose a:
  • A
    Parallelogram.
  • B
    Rhombus.
  • Rectangle.
  • D
    Square.
Answer
Correct option: C.
Rectangle.

$AR, BR, CP, DP$ are the bisectors of angles of parallelogram.
Because two bisectors of adjacent angles make $90^\circ$ between them
So $\text{PQRS}$ 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 $\text{PQRS}$ is not a square, but only a rectangle$)$

$\text{ABCD}$ is a parallelogram and $E$ and $F$ are the centroids of triangles $\text{ABD}$ and $\text{BCD}$ respectively, then $EF =$
  • $AE.$
  • B
    $BE.$
  • C
    $CE.$
  • D
    $DE$.
Answer
Correct option: A.
$AE.$

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 $(1) (2),$
$\text{EO + FO} =\frac{\text{AE}+\text{CF}}{2}=\frac{\not2\text{AE}}{\not2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{EF}=\frac{\not2\text{AE}}{\not2}$
$\Rightarrow\text{EF}=\text{AE}$

$\angle\text{ABM}=\angle\text{CBM}\ ...(1)$
$(BM$ 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$)$
$\angle\text{ADB}=\angle\text{CDB} [$from eq $(4)]$
Hence, by $\text{ASA}$ property,
$\triangle\text{ADB}\cong\triangle\text{CBD}$
$\Rightarrow AB = CB, AD = CD$
Hence, it becomes a Rhombus.
So now diagonals of a Rhombus bisect each other at $90^\circ .$

    $12\ cm.$
  • C
    $14\ cm.$
  • $16\ cm.$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$16\ cm.$

Let a line $BP$ is drawn $\|$ to $AD$ to meet $DC$ at $P$.
$\text{ABPD}$ is a parallelogram.
$AB \| PD, AD \| BP$
So $AB = DP$
Let $BP$ cuts $MN$ at $Q$.
$MQ$ is also $\|$ to $AB \| PD$
So $AB = MQ = PD = 12\ cm ...(1)$
$QN = MN - MQ = 14 - 12 = 2\ cm$
Consider $\triangle\text{BPC}.$
$Q$ and $N$ are the mid $-$ points of $BP , BC,$ and the line joining them $QN \| PC$.
Then by property, $\frac{\text{QN}}{\text{PC}}=\frac{1}{2}$
$\Rightarrow PC = 2QN = 2 \times 2 = 4\ cm$
Now b$, DC = DP + PC$
$DP = 12\ cm [$From $(1)]$
$\Rightarrow DC = 12 + 4 = 16\ cm$

$\text{ABCD}$ is a parallelogram in which diagonal $AC$ bisects $\angle\text{BAD}.$ if $\angle\text{BAC}=35^\circ,$ then $\angle\text{ABC}=$
  • A
    $70^\circ$
  • $110^\circ$
  • C
    $90^\circ$
  • D
    $120^\circ$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$110^\circ$

$AC$ bisects $\angle\text{DAB}.$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{DAC}=\angle\text{BAC}=35^\circ$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{BAD}=2\times35^\circ=70^\circ$
$\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}=180^\circ \ ($Sum of any two adjacent angles in parallelogram $=180^\circ )$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{B}=\angle\text{ABC}=180^\circ-\angle\text{BAD}$
$=180^\circ-70^\circ=110^\circ$

$\text{PQRS}$ is a quadrilateral. $PR$ and $QS$ intersect each other at $O$. in which of the following cases, $\text{PQRS}$ is a parallelogram?
  • $\angle\text{P}=100^\circ,\angle\text{Q}=80^\circ,\angle\text{R}=100^\circ$
  • B
    $\angle\text{P}=85^\circ,\angle\text{Q}=85^\circ,\angle\text{R}=95^\circ$
  • C
    $\text{PQ}=7\text{ cm},\text{QR}=7\text{ cm},\text{RS}=8\text{ cm},\text{SP}=8\text{ cm}$
  • D
    $\text{OP}=6.5\text{ cm},\text{OQ}=6.5\text{ cm},\text{OR}=5.2\text{ cm},\text{OS}=5.2\text{ cm}$
Answer
Correct 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 $\text{PQRS},$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{P}=\angle\text{R}$ and $\angle\text{Q}=\angle\text{S}$
Also, $\angle\text{P}+\angle\text{Q}=\angle\text{Q}+\text{R}=180^\circ$
Hence, if $\angle\text{P}=100^\circ$ and $\angle\text{Q}=80^\circ,$ then
$\angle\text{P}+\angle\text{Q}=100^\circ+80^\circ=180^\circ$
Also, if $\angle\text{Q}+=80^\circ$ and $\angle\text{R}=100^\circ$ then
$\angle\text{Q}+\angle\text{R}=80^\circ+100^\circ=180^\circ$
