Ch – 5 Understanding Elementary Shapes

Answer

1. 1. 1
      Explanation: The four main direction north, east, south, west. Each of them are at 90^o clockwise, i.e. we have to move 90^o to move north to east, another 90^o from east to south like that.
      So South to west we have to move only one 90^o . so answer is 1
2. 3. 1
      Explanation: Hour hand move 360^o from 12 to 12 . So it moves 3 hr from 3 to 6 . The factor of 3 to 12 {tex}= 3/12 = 1/4{/tex}
      Right angle = 90^o , factor of 90^o with 360^o {tex}=  90 /360 =1/4 .{/tex}
      So Hour hand will turn one right angle to cross 3 to 6
3. 4. (d) {tex}\frac{1}{4}{/tex} Explanation: In clock hour hand moves 12 hr from 12 o’ clock to 12 o’ clock. Fro12 to it 3 it is 3 hr , so fraction of 3 hr from 12 hr {tex}= 3/ 12 = 1/ 4 {/tex}. Or, the hour hand moves360^o form 12 to 12, from 12 to 3 it moves 90^o, so fraction of 90^o from 360^o {tex} = 90/360=1/4{/tex}
4. 2. Straight angle
      Explanation: One revolution = 360^o 
      Half revolution {tex}x = {-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} \over 2a}{/tex} 180^o
      180^o is called straight angle
5. 3. {tex}\overleftrightarrow {PQ} \bot \overleftrightarrow {RS}{/tex} Explanation: {tex}\overleftrightarrow {PQ} \bot \overleftrightarrow {RS}{/tex}
6. 1. – b
   2. – c
   3. – d
   4. – a
7. 1. 360
   2. two
   3. 90
   4. 8
8. 1. True
   2. False; in isosceles triangle only two sides are equal.
   3. False; For a polygon to be regular, all sides as well as all angles have to be equal.
   4. True
9. In geometry, a tetrahedron is a polyhedron composed of four triangular faces, three of which meet at each corner or vertex.
10. Straight Angle (180°)
11. Hexagon
    
    Sides of hexagon: AB, BC, CD, DE, EF and FA.
    Diagonals of hexagon: AC, AD, AE, BD, BE, BF, CE, CF, and DF
12. 
    {tex}\because{/tex} B is the mid-point of {tex}\overline{A C}{/tex}
    ∴ AB = BC …(1)
    {tex}\because{/tex}C is the mid-point of {tex}\overline{B D}{/tex}
    ∴ BC = CD …(2)
    In view of (1) and (2), we get
    AB = CD.
13. 
14. 1. 45°
    2. 125°
    3. 90°
    4. ∠1 = 40°, ∠2 = 125° and ∠3 = 95°.
15. An isosceles triangle is any triangle with 2 sides that are equal in length. So every equilateral triangle is a special case of an isosceles triangle since not just 2 sides are equal, but all 3 are. But every isosceles triangle is not equilateral, because you can have 2 sides of equal length and a third side that is either longer or shorter than those 2 sides. For example, if the triangle is a right-angle triangle and the two sides that meet to make the right angle are the same length, then the 3rd side would be longer than those two.
