Ch-14 Practical Geometry

Answer

1. (b) 75
  Explanation: set squares come in two forms, both right triangles, it has 90-45-90 degree angles. Therefore the third angle here will be 90 degree
1. diameter
  Explanation: A diameter joins two points on the circle and so it is a chord. The diameter also passes through the centre of the circle and is the longest chord of the circle.
1. 17 cm
  Explanation: Diameter is twice the radius.
  Diameter = radius x 2 = 8.5 x 2 = 17 cm
1. 6 cm
  Explanation: Diameter is twice the radius.
  Diameter = radius x 2 = 3 x 2 = 6 cm
1. 11 cm
  Explanation: Diameter is twice the radius.
  Diameter = radius x 2 = 5.5 x 2 = 11 cm
1. {tex} \to {/tex} r
2. {tex} \to {/tex} s
3. {tex} \to {/tex} p
4. {tex} \to {/tex} q
1. {tex}\overline {AB} {/tex}
2. 5cm
3. {tex}22\frac{1}{2}^\circ {/tex}
4. 100^o
1. True
2. False
3. False
4. True
If an angle of 110^o is bisected (divided into two equal parts), then each angle would be {tex}\frac{{110^\circ }}{2} = 55^\circ {/tex}.
Steps of Construction:
1. Draw a ray {tex}\overrightarrow {OP} {/tex}.
2. With ‘O’ as centre and any radius, draw an arc. Cutting {tex}\overrightarrow {OP} {/tex} at x.
3. With x as centre and the same radius, draw another arc intersecting the first arc at y
4. Join O, Y and produce it to Q.
  Hence, {tex}\angle POQ = 60^\circ {/tex} is the required angle.
steps:-
1. Place the zero mark of the ruler at ‘P’.
2. Mark a point ‘Q’ at a distance of 6cm from ‘P’.
3. Again mark a point ‘R’ at a distance of 4.5cm from ‘P’.
4. Hence by measuring {tex}\overline {QR} {/tex} we find {tex}\overline {QR} {/tex} = 6 – 4.5 = 1.5cm.
1. Draw a line segment {tex}\overline{\mathrm{PQ}} {/tex} of length 6.1cm.
2. With P as centre, using compasses, draw an arc. The radius of this arc should be more than half of the length of {tex}\overline{\mathrm{PQ}} {/tex}.
3. With the same radius and with Q as centre, draw another arc using compasses. Let it cut the previous arcs at A and B.
4. Join {tex}\overline{A B}{/tex}. It cuts {tex}\overline{\mathrm{PQ}} {/tex} at C. Then {tex}\overline{A B}{/tex} is the perpendicular bisector of the line segment {tex}\overline{\mathrm{PQ}} {/tex}.
5. Place the pointer of the compasses at C and open the pencil upto P.
6. Turn the compasses slowly to draw the circle.
1. Draw a point with a sharp pencil and mark it as C.
2. Open the compasses for the required radius 3.4cm, by putting the pointer on 0 and opening the pencil upto 3.4cm.
3. Place the pointer of the compasses at C.
4. Turn the compasses slowly to draw the circle.
5. Draw any chord {tex}\overline{AB}{/tex} of this circle.
6. With A as centre, using compasses, draw an arc. The radius of this arc should be more than half of the length of {tex}\overline{AB}{/tex}.
7. With the same radius and with B as centre, draw another arc using compasses. Let it cut the previous arcs at D and E.
8. Join {tex}\overline {DE}{/tex}. Then {tex}\overline {DE}{/tex} is the perpendicular bisector of the line segment {tex}\overline{AB}{/tex}. On examinating, we find that it passes through C.
