ANSWER

1.     Principal for the 1st half year = Rs.2560
        Interest for the 1st half year = 2560*1/2*61/4 = Rs.80
                                                              100
        Principal for the 2nd half year = 2560+80
                                                      = Rs.2640
       Interest for the 2ndhalf year = 2640*1/2*61/4 = Rs.82.50
                                                             100
       Principal for 3rd half year = 2722.50*1/2*25/4*1/100 = Rs.85.08
      Amount for the 3rd half year =2722.50+85.08
                                                =2807.58

2.    Amount in 1st year = Rs.1632
        The principal = Rs.1536
         \Interest       = Rs.96
          Hence r = 100*I = 100*96 = 25%
                           P*t      1536*1     4
        Principal for 2nd year = Rs.1632
         Interest for 2nd year = 1632*1*25/4*1/100 = Rs.102
         \ Amount for 2nd year = 1632+102 = Rs.1734


3.   Proof:-
     In DAMB and DDNE
      \ÐB =ÐE (given)
      \ÐM = ÐN = 90                  (construction)
      \ DAMB @DDNE                   A.A.A
      AM = AB = BC               DABC ~DDEF
      DN     DE    EF
      A DABC = ½ BC. AM         (formula)
      A DDEF       ½ EF. DN
              BC = BC
               EF    EF
      if DABC = BC2 = AB2 = AC2
         DDEF     EF2     DE2     DF2
For DABC and DDEF DABC = AB2 = BC2 = AC2
                               DDEF     DE2     EF2   DF2


4.    (i) 2sin67° + tan40° + cos0°
            cos23°     cot50°
          = 2sin67°      + tan40°       + 1
         cos(90-67°)   cot(90-40°)
          = 2sin67° + tan40° + 1
              sin67°      tan40°
           = 2+1+1
            = 4
       (ii)    BD = DC = 40cm
               (Altitude bisects the base of isoD)
                From (DADC, AD2+DC2 = AC2(DADC = 90°)
                  \ AD2+402 = 412
                   \ AD2+1600 = 1681
                    \ AD2 = 81
                      \ AD = 9
                 Area of DABC = ½*BC*AD
                                         = 360CM2

6.  (i) (a+b)2 - 4ab = (a-b)2 (formula)
          \ 62 - 4 * 63/4 = (a-b)2
          \ 36-4*27/4 = (a-b)2
           \  a-b = Ö 3
     (ii) The quadratic equation with p and 5p as roots is
           (x-p) (x-5p) = 0
           x2-6px+45 = 0
           5p2 = 45
             p2 =9
             \p =
± 3

7.   (i) 5<6,5<7,5<8,6<7,6<8,7<8
        Hence the relation `is less than' in
å* å is
          {(5,6),(5,7),(5,8),(6,7),(6,8),(7,8)}

             6>5,7>6,8>7
          Hence the relation `is 1 more than' can be written as
           {(6,5),(7,6),(8,7)}
      (ii) BC/AB = tanA            BC = 4.8*tan32°33¢
                                              BC = 4.8*0.6383
                                                     = 3.06384cm.
           AB/AC = cosA            4.8/AC = cos32°33°
                                                \ AC = 4.8/0.8429 = 5.69
               ÐC = 90° - ÐA = 90° - 32°33° = 57°27°


8. (a)     é x-2y    ù
  = é -3ù
             ë3x+2y  û =   ë  7 û
               x-2y = -3
              3x+2y = 7
            Solving we get
             x = 1, y = 2
     (b)   x2 - 2x =é 1 2 ù
é 1 2 ù -2 é 1 2 ù
                         ë2 1 ù
 ë2 1 ù 2 1 ù

                                  ë 0 1 û
      (c)   Arrange the numbers in ascending order
              2,4,4,8,16,21,21,21,43
              Total no. of observation = 9 = n
               \ Median = (9+1)/2)th observation
                              = 5th observation
                \ Median = 16
                Since 21 occurs more often than others, it is the mode.


 9.    (a) y = x                       y = -x+2
            x    0  1  2                 x   0  1  2
             y    0 1   2                y   2  1  0
           From graph, the lines meet at (1,1)
           Hence solution set = {1,1}

      (b) y = 3/2m*x + 4/2m
           y = -8/3m*x + 10/3m
            Now slope of line m1 = 3/2m and m2 = -8/3m
          Since lines are perpendicular to each other
          m1*m2 = -1 Þ 3/2m * (-8/3m) = -1
          \ m = ± 2

12. (a)
           m(arc PNQ) = 360° - 130° = 230°
           m ÐPQS = measure of the angle inscribed in arc PNQ
                           = ½ m(arc PMQ)
                           = ½ * 130
                            = 65°
            m ÐPQR = ½ * 230 = 115°

                                            = 64 + 25
                                             = 89
            \QM = Ö89
             \ The radius of the circle is Ö89 and the diameter is 2Ö89.


13.   (a) Here r = 5cm and h = 12cm
             The slant height (l) of a cone can be obtained by using the relation.
             l2 = r2 + h2
             l2 = (5)2 + (12)2
                 = 25 + 144
                  = 169
               l = 13
          Curved surface area of cone = Prl
                                                      = 3.14 * 5 * 13
                                                      = 204.1cm2
            Area of base of the cone = Pr2
                                                  = 3.14 * (5)2
                                                   = 78.5cm2
            Total surface area of the cone
                    = Area of base + curved surface area
                    = 78.5 + 204.1
                    = 282.6cm2

        Let O be the centre and seg OA and seg OB the two radii. Such that ÐAOB = 135°.
         Let the tangent at A meet the tangent at B, in point P.
        The sum of the measures of the four angles of a quadrilateral is 360°.
        mÐPAO = 90° and mÐOBP = 90°
         \ mÐAPB + 90° + 90° + 135° = 360°
          \ mÐAPB = 360° - 315° = 45°
          The angle between those tangents = 45°
