Solved Answers

Here are some important questions and solved answers for your reference.

Real Numbers

Real Numbers

Question

Use Euclid's Algorithm to find the HCF of 135 and 225

Solution

225>135

Use the division lemma to divide the two positive numbers:

225=135 + 1x90

135=90+45

90=2x45

225=135 + 2x45

Since 45 divides 225 and 135 exactly, 45 is the HCF

Question

If a and b are the zeroes of the quadratic polynomial f(x) = 6x^2 + x = 2, find the value of a/b + b/a

Solution

f(x) = 6x^2 + x = 2
Since a and b are the zeroes of the given polynomial,
Sum of zeroes (a+b) = -1/6
ab = -1/3

a/b + b/a = ((a+b)^2 - 2ab)/ab

 

 

Triangles

Triangles

Find out if the following statements are true or false:

  • Any two similar figures are congruent - False
  • Any two congruent figures are similar - True
  • Two polygons are similar if their corresponding sides are proportional - False
  •

    Question

    Find the distance between the points (0,0) and (36,15).

    Solution

    Square root of [(36-0)^2 + (15-0) ^ 2] = Square root of 1529 = 39
