ABCD is a square of area 4, which is divided into four non overlapping triangles as shown in the fig. Then the sum of the perimeters of the triangles is
ABCD is square a² = 4 ⇒ a = 2
perimeters of four triangles
= AB + BC + CD + DA + 2(AC + BD)
In triangle ABC, angle B is a right angle. If (AC) is 6 cm, and D is the mid – point of side AC. The length of BD is
In a right angled ∆, the length of the median is ½ the length of the hypotenuse .
Hence BD = ½ AC = 3 cm
AB ⊥ BC and BD ⊥ AC. CE bisects the angle C. ∠A = 30°. Then, what is ∠CED?
In ∆ ABC, = ∠C = 180 – 90 – 30 = 60°
Again in ∆ DEC, = ∠ CED = 180 – 90 – 30 = 60°
Give that segment AB and CD are parallel, if lines ℓ, m and n intersect at point O. Find the ratio of θ to ∠ODS
Let the line m cut AB and CD at point P and Q respectively
∠ DOQ = x (exterior angle)
Hence, Y + 2x (corresponding angle)
∴ y = x …(1)
Also . ∠ DOQ = x (vertically opposite angles)
In ∆ OCD, sum of the angles = 180⁰
∴ y + 2y + 2x + x =180°
⇒ 3x + 3y = 180°
⇒ x + y = 60 …(2)
From (1) and (2)
x = y = 30 = 2y = 60
∴ ∠ ODS = 180 – 60 = 120°
∴ θ = 180 – 3x = 180 – 3(30) = 180 – 90 = 90°.
∴ The required ratio = 90 : 120 = 3 : 4.
In the given figure given below, E is the mid-point of AB and F is the midpoint of AD. if the area of FAEC is 13, what is the area of ABCD?
As F is the mid-point of AD, CF is the median of the triangle ACD to the side AD.
Hence area of the triangle FCD = area of the triangle ACF.
Similarly area of triangle BCE = area of triangle ACE.
∴ Area of ABCD = Area of (CDF + CFA + ACE + BCE)
= 2 Area (CFA + ACE) = 2 × 13 = 26 sq. units.
In the given figure, ∠ ABC and ∠ DEF are two angles such that BA ⊥ ED and EF ⊥ BC, then find value of ∠ ABC + ∠ DEF.
Since the sum of all the angle of a quadrilateral is 360°
We have ∠ ABC + ∠ BQE + ∠ DEF + ∠ EPB = 360°
∴ ∠ ABC + ∠ DEF = 180°
[since BPE = EQB = 90° ]
If one of the diagonals of a rhombus is equal to its side, then the diagonals of the rhombus are in the ratio:
Let the diagonals of the rhombus be x and y and the its sides be x
Now,
⇒
⇒ 3x² = y²
⇒ y : x
If the angles of a triangle are in the ratio 5 : 3 : 2, then the triangle could be :
Let the angles of the triangle be 5x, 3x and 2x.
Now, 5x + 3x + 2x = 180°
⇒ 10x = 180
⇒ x = 18
⇒ Angles are 36, 54 and 90°
Given ∆ is right angled.
A cyclic parallelogram having unequal adjacent sides is necessarily a :
It is a rectangle.
(In a cyclic parallelogram each angle is equal to 90°. So, it is definitely either a square or a rectangle. Since the given cyclic parallelogram has unequal adjacent sides, it is a square.)
The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is 1620°. The number of sides of the polygon are
The sum of the interior angles of a polygon of n sides is given by the expression (2n – 4) π/2
⇒ 2n = 22
⇒ n = 11
Thus the no. of sides of the polygon are 11.
