1. Find the mode of the following frequency distribution:

Frequency 4 5 12 2 2
Ans:
2. A quadrilateral ABCD is drawn to circumscribe a circle. Prove that AB + CD = AD + BC.

Ans: We know that the length of the tangents drawn from an external point are equal.
Therefore, AP = AS, BP = BQ, CR = CQ, DR = DS ....... (1)
AB + CD = AP + PB + CR + RD = AS + BQ + CQ + DS [Using (1)]
= (AS + SD) + (BQ + QC) = AD + BC
⇒ AB + CD = AD + BC
3. From a point Q, the length of the tangent to a circle is 24 cm and the distance of Q from the centre
is 25 cm. Find the radius of the circle.
Ans: Using Pythagoras theorem, we get OQ2 = QT2 + OT2
⇒ OT2 = OQ2 – QT2

⇒ OT2 = 252 – 242 ⇒ OT2 = 625 – 576 = 49 ⇒ OT = 7 cm
4. Find the mean of the following distribution:

Ans:
5. Find the HCF of 96 and 404 by the prime factorisation method. Hence, find their LCM.
Ans: The prime factorisation of 96 and 404 gives :
96 = 25 × 3, 404 = 22 × 101
Therefore, the HCF of these two integers is 22 = 4.
LCM of these two integers is 25 x 3 x 101 = 9696
6. Explain why 7 × 11 × 13 + 13 and 7 × 6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 + 5 are composite numbers.
Ans: Given 7 × 11 × 13 + 13 = 13 × (7 × 11 + 1) = 3 × 78
This number is multiple of two integers. Hence it has more than two factors and it is a composite
number.
Similarly 7 × 6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 + 5 = 5 (7 × 6 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 + 1) = 5 × 1009
This number is multiple of two integers. Hence it has more than two factors and it is a composite
number.
7. A card is drawn at random from a well shuffled pack of 52 playing cards. The probability of
getting (i) a red face card (ii) neither king nor queen card
Ans: Total number of cards = 52
(i) Number of red face cards = 6
Required probability = 6/52 = 3/26
(ii) Number of cards neither king nor queen = 52 – 8 = 44
8. If the median of the distribution given below is 28.5, find the values of x and y.

Frequency 5 x 20 15 y 5 60
Ans:

9. Two dice are thrown simultaneously. What is the probability that the sum of the numbers on the
two dice is (i) 7? (b) at least 8?
Ans: Total number of outcomes = 36
(i) Number of outcomes in which the sum is 7 = 6
(ii) Number of outcomes in which the sum is at least 8 = 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 15
10. Prove that √5 is and irrational number.

p
Ans: Let 5 is a rational number then we have 5 , where p and q are co-primes.
q
 p  5q
Squaring both sides, we get p 2  5q 2
 p2 is divisible by 5  p is also divisible by 5
So, assume p = 5m where m is any integer.
Squaring both sides, we get p2 = 25m2
But p 2  5q 2
Therefore, 5q2 = 25m2  q2 = 5m2
 q2 is divisible by 5  q is also divisible by 5
From above we conclude that p and q have one common factor i.e. 5 which contradicts that p and q
are co-primes.
Therefore, our assumption is wrong.
Hence, 5 is an irrational number.
11. Prove that opposite sides of a quadrilateral circumscribing a circle subtend supplementary angles at
the centre of the circle.
Ans: Let ABCD be the quadrilateral circumscribing a circle at the center O such that it touches the
circle at the point P,Q,R,S. Let join the vertices of the quadrilateral ABCD to the center of the
circle
In ΔOAP and ΔOAS

AP=AS ( Tangents from to same point A)
PO=OS ( Radii of the same circle)
OA=OA ( Common side)
so, ΔOAP=ΔOAS (SSS congruence criterion)
∴ ∠POA=∠AOS (CPCT)
⇒ ∠1=∠8
Similarly, ∠2=∠3, ∠4=∠5 and ∠6=∠7
∠1+∠2 +∠3+∠4+∠5+∠6+∠7+∠8 = 360⁰
⇒ (∠1 +∠8) +(∠2 +∠3) + (∠4 +∠5) + (∠6 +∠7) = 360⁰
⇒ 2(∠1) + 2(∠2) + 2(∠5) + 2(∠6) = 360⁰
⇒ (∠1) + (∠2) + (∠5) + (∠6) = 180⁰
∴ ∠AOD + ∠COD=180⁰
Similarly, ∠BOC + ∠DOA = 180⁰
12. Prove that "If a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle to intersect the other two sides in
distinct points, then the other two sides are divided in the same ratio."
Ans: Correct Given, To Prove, Constructions with Figure – 2 marks
Correct Proof – 2 marks
