Answer
Correct option: A.
$15cm, 8cm, 17cm$
A.  $15cm, 8cm, 17cm$
Solution:
Given: In a right angled triangle, Perpendicular $=5 x$ and Base $=3 x-1$
Area $=60 cm^2$
Area of triangle $=\frac{1}{2}$ (base)(height)
$60=\frac{1}{2}(5 x)(3 x-1)$
$120=15 x^2-5 x$
$24=3 x^2-x$
$3 x^2-x-24=0$
$3 x^2-9 x+8 x-24=0$
$3 x(x-3)+8(x-3)=0$
$(3 x+8)(x-3)=0$
$x =3, \frac{-8}{3}$
Neglect the nagative value, $x=3$
Thus, perpendicular $=15 cm$ and base $=8 cm$
Now, from Pythagoras theorem,
$H^2=P^2+B^2 $
$H^2=15^2+8^2$
$H^2=225+64$

  • C
    $70^\circ , 70^\circ$
  • $70^\circ , 60^\circ$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$70^\circ , 60^\circ$

As we know,
Measure of exterior angle = Sum of the opposite interior angles.
$\Rightarrow \ \angle\text{R}=\angle\text{P}+\angle\text{Q}$
$\Rightarrow \ 120^{0}=\text{x}+50^{0}$ $[\because \angle\text{R}=120^{0}]$
$\Rightarrow \ \text{x}=120^{0}-50^{0}$
$\Rightarrow \ \text{x}=70^{0}$
Now, the sum of the interior angles of a triangles is 180°.
$\therefore x + y + 50^\circ = 180^\circ $
$\Rightarrow 70^\circ + y + 50^\circ = 180^\circ $
$\Rightarrow 120^\circ + y = 180^\circ $
$\Rightarrow y = 180^\circ - 120^\circ $
$\Rightarrow y = 60^\circ $

$\angle \text{AEC}+\angle \text{AEB}=180^\circ$ [Linear angles]
$\Rightarrow 79^\circ+\angle \text{AEB}=180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow \angle \text{AEB}=101^\circ$
Since, $AB || CD$
$\angle \text{ABE}=\angle \text{ECD}=58^\circ$ [Alternate angles]
Now, In $\triangle \text{AEB}$
$\angle \text{AEB}+\angle \text{EAB}+\angle \text{ABE}=180^\circ$ [Angle sum property of triangle]
$\Rightarrow 101^\circ+58^\circ+\text{x}^\circ=180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow \text{x}^\circ=21^\circ$
$\Rightarrow \text{x}=21$
Now, In $\triangle \text{AEB}$
$\angle \text{AEC}+\angle \text{CAE}+\angle \text{CEA}=180^\circ$ [Angle sum property of triangle]
$\Rightarrow 79^\circ+\text{y}^\circ+3\text{x}^\circ=180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow 79^\circ+\text{y}^\circ+3(21)^\circ=180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow 79^\circ+\text{y}^\circ+63^\circ=180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow \text{y}^\circ=38^\circ$
$\Rightarrow \text{y}=38$

In Figure. $PB = PD.$ The value of $x$ is:
  • A
    $85^\circ$
  • B
    $90^\circ$
  • $25^\circ$
  • D
    $35^\circ$

     
Answer
Correct option: C.
$25^\circ$
$\text{In} \ \triangle\text{PBD},$ $\angle1+120^{\circ}=180^{\circ}$ $[\text{linear pair}]$
$\angle1=180^{\circ}-120^{\circ}=60^{\circ}$
Also, $\angle1=\angle2=60^{\circ}$ $[\because\text{PB}=\text{PD}]$

Also, $\angle2+\angle3=180^{\circ}$ $[\text{linear pair}]$
$\Rightarrow60^{\circ}+\angle3=180^{\circ} \ \Rightarrow \ \angle3=180^{\circ}-60^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow\angle3=120^{\circ}$
$\text{In} \ \triangle\text{PDC},$ $35^{\circ}+\angle3+\text{x}^{\circ}=180^{\circ}$ [angle sum property of a triangle]
$\Rightarrow \ 35^{\circ}+120^{\circ}+\text{x}^{\circ}=180^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \ 155^{\circ}+\text{x}^{\circ}=180^{\circ}\Rightarrow \ \text{x}^{\circ}=180^{\circ}-155^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \ \text{x}=25^{\circ}$

In Pythagoras theorem the right angled triangle is also called a:
  • A
    Acute angled triangle
  • Scalene angled triangle
  • C
    Reflex angled triangle
  • D
    Straight angled triangle
Answer
Correct option: B.
Scalene angled triangle

A scalene angled triangle has no sides or angles that are the same. For
Eg: The sides of a triangle are in the ratio $6 : 8 : 10$
So triangle with different sides or angles is called Scalene Angled Triangle.

Lengths of sides of a triangle are $3\ cm, 4\ cm$ and $5\ cm.$ The triangle is:
  • A
    Obtuse angled triangle.
  • B
    Acute-angled triangle.
  • Right-angled triangle.
  • D
    An Isosceles right triangle.
Answer
Correct option: C.
Right-angled triangle.
Since, these sides satisfy the Pythagoras theorem, therefore it is right angled triangle. Lengths of the sides of a triangle are $3cm, 4cm$ and $5cm.$
According to Pythagoras theorem,
$3^2 + 4^2 = 5^2$
$\Rightarrow 9 +16 = 25$
$\Rightarrow 25 = 25$ (satisfied)
Note: the area of the square built upon the hypotenuse of a right angled triangled.

In a right$-$angled triangle, the angles other than the right angle are:
  • Obtuse.
  • B
    Right.
  • C
    Acute.
  • D
    Straight.
Answer
Correct option: A.
Obtuse.
In right angled $\triangle\text{ABC}, \angle\text{B}=90^{\circ} [$angle sum property of a triangle$]$
$\angle\text{A}+\angle\text{B}+\angle\text{C}=180^{\circ}$

$\Rightarrow \angle\text{A}+90^{\circ}+\angle\text{C}=180^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \angle\text{A}+\angle\text{C}=180^{\circ}-90^{\circ}=90^{\circ}$
Hence, in a right angled triangle, the angles other than the right angle are acute.

If the measures of the angles of a triangle are $(2\text{x}-5)^\circ,\Big(3\text{x}-\frac{1}{2}\Big)$ and $\Big(30-\frac{\text{x}}{2}\Big)^\circ,$ then $x =$
  • $\frac{311}{9}$
  • B
    $\frac{309}{11}$
  • C
    $\frac{310}{9}$
  • D
    $\frac{301}{9}$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$\frac{311}{9}$

$(2\text{x}-5)^\circ,\Big(3\text{x}-\frac{1}{2}\Big)+\Big(30-\frac{\text{x}}{2}\Big)^\circ=180^\circ$ [Angle sum property of triangle]
$\Rightarrow 2\text{x}-5+3\text{x}-\frac{1}{2}+30-\frac{\text{x}}{2}=180$
$\Rightarrow 2\text{x}+3\text{x}-\frac{\text{x}}{2}-5-\frac{1}{2}+30=180$
$\Rightarrow 4\text{x}+6\text{x}-\text{x}-10-1+60=180\times2$
$\Rightarrow 9\text{x}+49=360$
$\Rightarrow \text{x}=\frac{311}{9}$
Hence, the correct answer is option $(a).$

In $\triangle \text{CDE}$
$\angle \text{CDE}+\angle \text{CED}+\angle \text{ECD}=180^\circ$ [Angle sum property of triangle]
$\Rightarrow 53^\circ+53^\circ+\angle \text{ECD}=180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow \angle \text{ECD}=74^\circ$
Since, $AB \| CD$
$\therefore \angle \text{ECD}=\angle \text{CGB}=74^\circ$ [Corresponding angles]
Now, $\angle \text{CGB}+\angle \text{BGF}=180^\circ$ [Linear pair angles]
$\Rightarrow 74^\circ+\text{x}^\circ=180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow \text{x}=106$
Now, In $\triangle \text{EGB},$
$\angle \text{EGB}+\angle \text{BEG}+\angle \text{EBG}=180^\circ$ [Angle sum property of triangle]
$\Rightarrow 74^\circ+53^\circ+\angle \text{EBG}=180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow \angle \text{EBG}=53^\circ$
Now, $\angle \text{EBG}+\text{Reflex }\angle \text{EBG}=360^\circ$ [Complete angle]
$\Rightarrow 53^\circ+\text{y}^\circ=360^\circ$
$\Rightarrow \text{y}=307$
Hence, the correct answer is option $(a).$
