Common Mistake n cannot be the nagative. As n is the notation used for months . Hence, take positive value only. (ii) Given, the model is drawn to the scale 1 : 500, and the dimensions of the model are : common radius = 3 cm, height of conical part = 4 cm, height of cylindrical part =14 cm 4 cm =10 cm, Therefore, the actual dimensions of the rocket are: common radius, r = 3 500 cm =15 m, height of conical part, h1 = 4 500 cm = 20 m, height of cylindrical part, h2 = 10 500 = 50 m. Now, slant height of rocket, l = r 2 + h12 = 152 + 202 = 625 = 25 m E 64 729 2 2 r 6 = or 3 3 l 6 r= 2 2 or 3 3 Reason If a, ar , ar 2 ......... ar n 1 are in GP, then the an + 1 common ratio is given by r = . an Hence, both are true. 2. (i) Given, money deposited per month, P = ` 400 and interest rate percent per annum, r =10 Let the account be held for n months, then by using the formula n(n + 1) r I =P , we get 2 12 100 n(n + 1) 10 5n(n + 1) I = 400 =` 2 12 100 3 Total money deposited by Beena = (400 n) = ` 400n Total amount at maturity = Total money deposit by Reena + interest 5n(n + 1) = 400n + 3 1200n + 5n(n + 1) 5n 2 + 1205n = =` 3 3 According to given condition, 5n 2 + 1205n = 30100 3 F D C A B (a) The total surface area of the rocket = curved surface area of cone + curved surface area of cylinder + area of base of cylinder = rl + 2 rh2 + r 2 = 15 25 + 2 15 50 + 152 = (375 + 1500 + 225) = 2100 m 2 (b) The total volume of the rocket = volume of conical part + volume of cylindrical part 1 2 = r h1 + r 2h2 3 1 = 152 20 + 152 50 3 20 = 225 + 50 m 3 3 170 = 225 3 =12750 m 3 1 2 1 + tan 2 sec2 (iii) LHS = = = cos 2 2 1 1 + cot cosec sin 2 y1 + y 2 2 0+ b 4= [Q y = 4 , y1 = 0 and y 2 = b] 2 8= b Hence, a = 4 and b = 8 (b) Let the coordinates of the third vertex be (x , y).

(i) Given, Hence proved. x 3 + 3 x 341 = 3 x 2 + 1 91 On applying componendo and dividendo rule, we get (x 3 + 3 x) + (3 x 2 + 1) 341 + 91 = (x 3 + 3 x) (3 x 2 + 1) 341 91 (x + 1)3 432 = (x 1)3 250 (x + 1)3 216 = (x 1)3 125 (x + 1)3 (6)3 = (x 1)3 (5)3 P ( 2, 4) 3 7 + x 5 + 4 + y (2, 1) = , 3 3 x 4 y 1 (2, 1) = , 3 3 Y 6 5 (0,4)B A (6,4) 4 3 2 On taking cube root both sides, we get x +1 6 = x 1 5 5 (x + 1) = 6 (x 1) 5x + 5 = 6x 6 6x 5x = 5 + 6 x =11 (ii) (a) Given, point P( 2, 4) is the mid-point of AB. A (a, 0) On equating the coordinates, we get x 4 y 1 = 2 and = 1 3 3 x 4 = 6 and y 1 = 3 x =10 and y = 2 Hence, the coordinates of third vertex are (10, 2). (iii) Let us take 10 small division =1 unit of both the axes. We can plot the points A(6, 4) and B(0, 4) as follow. (a) Reflect A and B in origin to get the image A and B in this graph. 2 2 y= B (0, b) By mid-point formula, x + x2 x= 1 2 a+ 0 2 = [Q x = 2, x1 = a and x 2 = 0] 2 2 2= a + 0 4 = a a = 4 1 X 6 5 4 3 2 1 1 O 2 3 4 5 6 X 1 2 3 A ( 6, 4) 4 B (0, 4) 5 6 Y (b) The coordinates of A and B are ( 6, 4) and (0, 4). (c) We find that the geometrical name ABA B is parallelogram. (d) Perimeter of a parallelogram ABA B = 2(AB + AB ) = 2(6 + 10) = 32 units (iii) Taking X-axis as class interval and Y-axis as a frequency, draw a histogram from the given data.

Through point E, draw a vertical line to meet the X-axis at point F. The abscissa of the point F represents 47 which is required mode. 5. (i) (a) Given, BAC = 40 and AC is a diameter of a circle. So, ABC = 90 [angle in a semi-circle is right angle] We know that the sum of all angles of a triangle is 180 . CAB + ABC + BCA = 180 40 + 90 + BCA = 180 BCA = 180 (90 + 40 ) = 180 130 = 50 (b) Also, BC|| AE EAB + ABC = 180 EAC + 40 + 90 = 180 EAC = 180 130 = 50 E D A C 40 B Here, AEDC is a cyclic quadrilateral. EAO + EDC = 180 50 + EDC = 180 EDC = 130 (c) Since, AC is a diameter of a circle. Therefore, AEC = 90 [angle in a semi-circle is right angle] ECB = 90 [Q sum of all angle of a quadrilateral is 360 ] It implies that line joining BE is the diameter of the circle. Since, AE|| BC and AB is a transversal. EAB + ABC = 180 EAB + 90 = 180 EAB = 90 It is clear that ABCE is a square. So, EB is the angle bisector of AEC. 90 BEC = = 45 2 2 6 3 2 4 0 (ii) Given, A = , B= and C = 2 6 4 0 6 2 3 2 6 4 2B = 2 = 4 0 8 0 Now, we have A + 2 X = 2B + C 2 X = 2B + C A 1 X = (2B + C A) 2 6 4 4 0 2 Now, 2B + C A = + 8 0 6 2 2 6 + 4 4 + 0 2 = 8 + 6 0 + 2 2 2 4 2 6 = 14 2 2 6 2 2 4 + 6 4 = = 14 2 2 6 12 6 6 6 6 10 4 (iii) Let f (x) = 2 x 3 + ax 2 + 7 x b (i) Given, (x + 2) is a factor of f (x), then f ( 2) = 0 2 2 ( 2) + (a) ( 2) + (7) ( 2) b = 0 16 + 4 a 14 b = 0 4 a b 30 = 0 (ii) Also, x + 3 is a factor of f (x) , f ( 3) = 0 2 ( 3)3 + a ( 3)2 + 7 ( 3) b = 0 54 + 9a 21 b = 0 (iii) 9a b 75 = 0 On subtracting Eq. (ii) from Eq. (iii), we get 5a 45 = 0 a = 9 On putting the value of a = 9 in Eq. (ii), we get 36 b 30 = 0 b = 6 Hence, a = 9 and b = 6 m= y 2 y1 x 2 x1 m= 5 3 8 = 6 2 4 m= 2 1 1 = m 2 Let P be the mid-point of line AB. Then, coordinates 2 + 6 3 5 of P , = (4 , 1) 2 2 Slope of the line perpendicular to AB = Y X P A (2, 3) B (6, 5) X Y Thus, the required line passes through P(4 , 1) and 1 having slope . So, its equation is 2 y y1 = m (x x1) 1 y + 1 = (x 4) 2 y + 2 = x 4 2 x 2y 6 = 0 (ii) Given, cosec sin = 5 (cosec sin )2 = ( 5)2 [squaring on both sides] cosec2 + sin 2 2 cosec sin = 5 [Q (a b)2 = a 2 + b 2 2ab] 1 X = (2B + C A) 2 1 4 10 = 2 12 4 2 5 = 6 2 3 6. (i) The slope of line AB, where A(2, 3) and B(6, 5). cosec2 + sin 2 + 2 cosec sin = 5 + 4 cosec sin [adding 4 cosec sin on both sides] (cosec +sin )2 = 5 + 4 1 [Q cosec A sin A =1] (cosec + sin )2 = 9 [taking square root] cosec + sin = 3 But cosec > 0 and sin > 0, so cosec + sin > 0. Hence proved. cosec + sin = 3 (iii) Given, a =121 and d = 117 121 = 4 Let nth term be the first negative term, then an < 0 a + (n 1)d < 0 121 + (n 1)( 4) < 0 [Q an = a + (n 1)d] 121 121 < 4(n 1) < n 1 4 121 125 +1< n <n 4 4 125 1 n> n > 31 4 4 The least positive integral value of n which satisfies 125 is 32. n> 4 Hence, 32nd is the first negative term of the given AP. 7. (i) Box contains 15 balls of which x are blue, so the number of red balls in the box = 15 x 15 x P(red ball) = 15 When 5 red balls are increased, then number of red balls in the box = (15 x) + 5 = 20 x Total number of balls in the box = 15 + 5 = 20 Probability of drawing a red ball in this case 20 x = 20 According to the question, 20 x 15 x = 2 20 15 20 x 2 = (15 x) 4 3 20 x + 15 (x + 1) + 12 (x + 2) 25 60 [multiplying both sides by 60] 20 x + 15 x + 12 x + 15 + 24 1500 47 x 1500 39 47 x 1461 1461 4 x x 31 47 47 The largest value of x = 31 Then, x = 31 , x + 1 = 31 + 1 = 32 and x + 2 = 31 + 2 = 33 Hence, required numbers are 31, 32 and 33. (ii) To calculate the mean and cumulative frequency, the table is given below. Marks ( xi ) Frequency (fi ) fi xi 3 5 15 5 5 7 35 5+7 =12 6 8 48 12+8=20 7 4 28 20+4=24 8 10 80 24+10 = 34 60 3 x = 120 8 x 5 x = 60 x =12 Thus, originally the box contains 12 blue balls and 3 red balls. 3 1 (a) P(red ball) = = 15 5 12 4 (b) P(blue ball) = = 15 5 (c) When 5 red balls are added, then the box will contain 12 blue balls and 3 + 5 i.e. 8 red balls. P(blue ball, if 5 red balls are actually added) 12 2 = = 20 5 (ii) (a) Given, in PQR, QS and RT are medians. So, TS|| QR [Q T , S are the mid-points of PQ and PR, respectively] 1 [by mid-point theorem] (i) TS = QR 2 In TGS and RGQ, GTS = GRQ [alternate angles, as TS|| QR] [alternate angles] GST = GQR and SGT = QGR [vertically opposite angles] TGS ~ RGQ [by AA axiom of similarity] (b) Since, TGS ~ RGQ So, sides of the triangles are proportional. GS TS = GQ QR GS 1 [from Eq. (i)] = GQ 2 2GS = GQ GQ = 2GS Cumulative frequency (cf) 9 6 54 34+6 = 40 10 9 90 40+9 = 49 Total fi = 49 fi xi = 350 We know that Mean (X) = f i x i 350 = = 7.14 fi 49 Here, N = 49, which is odd. N + 1 Median = th observation 2 49 + 1 = th observation 2 50 th observation = 2 = 25th observation = 8 [Q 25 lies in the cumulative frequency 34, whose corresponding marks is 8] Mode = Marks having highest frequency Mode = 8 [Q in the table, highest frequency is 10, whose corresponding marks is 8] (iii) From figure, OR = OS [radii of the circle] S O Q Hence proved. x P 8. (i) Let x , x + 1 and x + 2 be consecutive natural numbers. According to the question, x x +1 x + 2 + + 25 3 4 5 But y R T OSR = ORS [opposite angles of equal sides are equal] OSR = QRP = y [angles in alternate segments are equal] ORS = y [Q ORS = OSR] POR = OSR + ORS [sum of opposite interior angles of a triangle] POR = y + y = 2 y Since, PR is tangent to the circle and OR is radius, therefore, OR PR. ORP = 90 OPR + POR + ORP = 180 [Q sum of angles of a triangle is 180 ] x +2 y +90 = 180 Hence proved. x +2 y = 90 The required ogive is shown on the graph paper as given below. 300 x Reduced list price of the book = ` (x 5) 300 Number of books bought for ` 300 = x 5 Number of books bought for ` 300 = 300 300 According to the question, =5 x 5 x 300 x 300 x + 1500 =5 x (x 5) 1500 =5 x2 5x x 2 5 x 300 = 0 x 2 20 x + 15 x 300 = 0 (1200, 444) F 450 K (1300, 470) G Q (1100, 404) E 400 350 T S (1000, 314) D Number of employees 9. (i) Let ` x be the original list price of the book. Y 500 300 250 I P (900, 194) C 200 150 L 100 50 O (800, 108) B R (700, 40) A 600 J H (600, 0) N M U 700 800 900 1000 1100 1200 1300 X Monthly income x (x 20) + 15 (x 20) = 0 (x 20)(x + 15) = 0 x = 20, 15 x = 20 [Q x = 15 is not possible] Hence, the list price of the book is ` 20. (ii) The cumulative frequency table for continuous distribution is given below Monthly income in ` (class-intervals) Number of employees (frequency) Cumulative frequency 600-700 40 40 700-800 68 108 ( 40 + 68) 800-900 86 194(108 + 86) 900-1000 120 314(194 + 120) 1000-1100 90 404( 314 + 90) 1100-1200 40 444( 404 + 40) 1200-1300 26 470( 444 + 26) Since, the scale on X-axis starts at 600, a kink is shown near the origin on X-axis to show that the graph is drawn to scale beginning at 600. Now, plot the points A(700, 40), B(800,108), C(900,194), D(1000, 314), E(1100, 404), F(1200, 444), G(1300, 470) and H(600, 0). Join these points by a free hand curve. Here, n (number of employees) = 470 (a) Let A be a point on Y-axis representing n 470 frequency = = = 235 2 2 Through I, draw a horizontal line to meet the ogive at P.

Through J , draw a vertical line to meet the ogive at Q. Through Q, draw a horizontal line to meet the Y-axis at K. The ordinate of the point K represents 436 employees on Y-axis. The number of employees whose income exceeds `1180 = total number of employees number of employees whose income `1180 = 470 436 = 34 The percentage of employees whose income 34 exceeds `1180 = 100 % = 7.23% 470 (iii) (a) For lower quartile (Q1 ) Let L be the point on Y-axis representing n 470 frequency = = = 117.5 4 4 Through L, draw a horizontal line to meet the ogive at R.

The upper quartile, Q3 = `1035 (b) Inter quartile range = upper quartile lower quartile = `1035 ` 815 = ` 220 B frequency = 10. (i) Since, the numbers are in the ratio 7 : 11, let the required numbers be 7x and 11x. According to the question, (7 x + 7):(11 x + 7) = 2 : 3 7x + 7 2 = 11 x + 7 3 22 x + 14 = 21 x + 21 x=7 7 x = 7 7 = 49 and 11 x = 11 7 = 77 The required numbers are 49 and 77.
