MCQ 1511 Mark
The triangle formed by $BC = 5\ cm, AC = 3\ cm$ and $AB = 5.8\ cm$ is:
  • A
    $\text{A right angled } \triangle$
  • B
    $\text{An isosceles } \triangle$
  • C
    $\text{An equilateral } \triangle$
  • $\text{A scalene }\triangle$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$\text{A scalene }\triangle$

Cleary sum of any two given sides of is greater than the third side,
so a triangle can be formed. Now all the sides of triangle are unequal, so the triangle formed is a scalene $\triangle$

In Fig. if $AB \| CD$, the value of $x$ is:
  • $25$
  • B
    $35$
  • C
    $15$
  • D
    $20$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$25$

Since, $AB \| DE$
$\angle \text{DCB}=\angle \text{CBA}=3\text{x}^\circ$ [Alternate angles]
Now,
$\angle \text{ACB}+\angle \text{CAB}+\angle \text{CBA}=180^\circ$ [Angle sum property of triangle]
$\Rightarrow 55^\circ + 2\text{x}^\circ + 3\text{x}^\circ= 180$
$\Rightarrow 5\text{x}^\circ= 125^\circ$
$\Rightarrow \text{x} = 25$
Hence, the correct answer is option $(a).$

$ABC$ is an isosceles triangle with $AB = AC$ and $AD$ is altitude, then ____.
  • A
    $\angle\text{B}>\angle\text{C}$
  • B
    $\angle\text{B}<\angle\text{C}$
  • $\angle\text{B}=\angle\text{C}$

$\angle\text{B}=\angle\text{C}$

In the given triangle $\triangle\text{ABC}$

$AB = AC$
$AD$ is perpendicular
So in $\triangle\text{ADC},\triangle\text{ADB}$
$AD = AD$ Common
$\triangle\text{ADC}=\triangle\text{ADB}=90^\circ$
$\triangle\text{ADC}\cong\triangle\text{ADB}$
$\Rightarrow\angle\text{B}=\angle\text{C}$

In Figure. the value of $\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}+\angle\text{D}+\angle\text{E}+\angle\text{F} \ \text{is}:$
  • A
    $190^\circ$
  • B
    $540^\circ$
  • $360^\circ$
  • D
    $180^\circ$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$360^\circ$

As we know, sum of all the interior angles of a triangle is $180^\circ .$
$\text{In} \ \triangle\text{ABC}, \ \angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}=180^{\circ}$ $[\text{interior angles of }\triangle\text{ABC}].....(\text{i})$
$\text{In} \ \triangle\text{DEF}, \ \angle\text{D}+\angle\text{E}+\angle\text{F}=180^{\circ}$ $[\text{interior angles of }\triangle\text{DEF}].....(\text{ii})$
On adding Equation. (i) and (ii), we get.
$\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}+\angle\text{D}+\angle\text{E}+\angle\text{F}\\ =180^{\circ}+180^{\circ}$
$=360^{\circ}$

If two angles of a triangle are $60^\circ $ each, then the triangle is:
  • A
    Isosceles but not equilateral.
  • B
    Scalene.
  • Equilateral.
  • D
    Right-angled.
Answer
Correct option: C.
Equilateral.

$\text{In} \ \angle\text{ABC},$ $\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+ \angle\text{C}=180^{\circ}$ [angle sum property of a triangle]
$\Rightarrow \ \angle\text{A}+60^{\circ}+60^{\circ}=180^{\circ}$ ${[\because\angle\text{B}=\angle{\text{C}}=60^{\circ},\text{given}]}$
$\Rightarrow \ \angle\text{A}=120^{\circ}-80^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \ \angle\text{A}=60^{\circ}$

Since, all the angles are of $60^\circ $.
so, it is an equilateral triangle.

In Figure. $\angle\text{BAC}=90^{\circ},$ $\text{AD}\bot\text{BC}$ and$\angle\text{ BAD}=50^{\circ},$ then$\angle\text{ ACD}$ is:
  • $50^\circ$
  • B
    $40^\circ$
  • C
    $70^\circ$
  • D
    $60^\circ$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$50^\circ$

Given, $\angle\text{BAC}=90^{\circ},$ $\text{AD}\bot\text{BC}$ and $\angle\text{ BAD}=50^{\circ}$
In $\triangle\text{ABD},$
$\angle\text{ABD}+\angle\text{DAB}+\angle\text{ADB}=180^{\circ}$ [angle sum property of a triangle]
$\Rightarrow \ \angle\text{ABD}+50^{\circ}+90^{\circ}=180^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \ \angle\text{ABD}+140^{\circ}=180^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \ \angle\text{ABD}=180^{\circ}-140^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \ \angle\text{ABD}=40^{\circ}$
Now In$\triangle\text{ABD},$
$\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}=180^{\circ}$ [angle sum property of a triangle]
$\Rightarrow \ 90^{\circ}+40^{\circ}+\angle\text{C}=180^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \ \angle\text{C}=180^{\circ}-130^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \ \angle\text{C}=50^{\circ}$
$\therefore\ \angle\text{ACD}=50^{\circ}$

The trianlge $\text{ABC}$ formed by $\ce{AB = 5\ cm, BC = 8\ cm, AC = 4\ cm}$ is:
  • A
    An isosceles triangle only.
  • A scalene triangle only.
  • C
    An isosceles right triangle.
  • D
    Scalene as well as a right triangle.
Answer
Correct option: B.
A scalene triangle only.
$i.$ It’s not isosceles triangle as all the sides are of different measure.
$ii.$ It’s not right triangle, since it does not follow Pythagoras theorem.

$\Rightarrow 4^2 + 5^2 = 8^2$
$\Rightarrow 16 + 25 = 64$
$\Rightarrow 41\neq64 ($not satisfied$)$
Hence, it is scalane triangle as all the sides are of different measure.

In $\triangle\text{PQR},$ if $PQ = QR$ and $\angle\text{Q} = 100^\circ $, then $\angle\text{R}$ is equal to:
  • $40^\circ$
  • B
    $80^\circ$
  • C
    $120^\circ$
  • D
    $50^\circ$
Answer

As we know,
$\therefore\ \angle\text{P}+\angle\text{Q}+\angle\text{R}=\text{180}^{\circ}$ [angle sum property of a triangle]
$\Rightarrow \ \text{x}+100^{\circ}+\text{x}=180^{\circ}$ $[\because\angle\text{Q}=100^{\circ},\text{given}]$
$\Rightarrow \ \text{2x}+100^{\circ}=180^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \ \text{2x}=80^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \ \text{x}=40^{\circ}$
Hence, $\angle\text{P}=\angle\text{R}=\text{40}^{\circ}$

Given, $\angle\text{BAD}=\angle\text{DAC}=50^{\circ}$ $[\because\text{AD} \ \text{bisect}\angle\text{A} \ \text{and} \ \angle\text{A}=100^{\circ}]$
and $\angle\text{BDA}=\angle\text{ADC}=90^{\circ}$ $[\because\text{AD}\bot\text{BC}]$

Now, in $\triangle\text{ABD},$
$\angle\text{ABD}+\angle\text{BAD}+\angle\text{BDA}=180^{\circ}$ [angle sum property ofb triangle]
$\Rightarrow \ \angle\text{ABD}+50^{\circ}+90^{0}=180^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \ \angle\text{ABD}+140^{\circ}=180^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \ \angle\text{ABD}=180^{\circ}-140^{\circ}$

Maximum number of possible obtuse angles in a triangle is:
  • A
    $0$
  • $1$
  • C
    $2$
  • D
    $3$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$1$
Any triangle must have interior angles that add up to $180^{\circ}$. An obtus angle is an angle greater than $90^{\circ}$ but less than $180^{\circ}$ If you an angle that was $91^{\circ}$.
The other $2$ angles would have to be acute. This is because the other angles would take up $180^{\circ}-91^{\circ}=89^{\circ}$ of the triangle.
Since $89^{\circ}$ is less than $90^{\circ}$, this means the other $2$ angles must both be acute.You are left with $1$ obtuse angle.

The length of two sides of a triangle are $7\ cm$ and $9\ cm$. The length of the third side may lie between:
  • A
    $1\ cm$ and $10\ cm.$
  • B
    $2\ cm$ and $8\ cm.$
  • $2\ cm$ and $16\ cm.$
  • D
    $1\ cm$ and $16\ cm.$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$2\ cm$ and $16\ cm.$
The third side must be greater than the difference between two sides and less than the sum of two sides.
Sum of two sides $= 7 + 9 = 16\ cm$
Difference of two sides $= 9 - 7 = 2\ cm$
So, length of the third side must lie between $2\ cm$ and $16\ cm.$
