How many lines of reflection symmetry does it have? What about a regular pentagon? A regular hexagon?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Solution:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A square possesses rotational symmetry of order 4, meaning it looks identical every {tex}90^{\\circ}{\/tex}, and has 4 distinct lines of reflectional symmetry. For a regular pentagon, the rotational order is 5 {tex}\\left(72^{\\circ}\\right.{\/tex} turns) with 5 lines of reflection passing through each vertex. A regular hexagon has rotational symmetry of order {tex}6\\left(60^{\\circ}\\right.{\/tex} turns) and 6 lines of reflection. Generally, any regular polygon with {tex}n{\/tex} sides has {tex}n{\/tex} lines of reflectional symmetry and rotational symmetry of order {tex}n{\/tex}. These geometric properties help define the balance and uniformity of shapes relative to their central points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Q.47:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What is the length of the longest chord in a circle of radius 5 units? Is there a smallest chord?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Solution:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The longest chord in any circle is its diameter, which passes directly through the center. Since the diameter is twice the length of the radius, in a circle with a radius of 5 units, the longest chord measures exactly 10 units.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regarding a smallest chord, there is no single &#8220;smallest&#8221; chord because you can draw chords that are arbitrarily close to a length of zero. As the endpoints of a chord move closer together on the circumference, the length decreases. Theoretically, as the distance between endpoints approaches zero, the chord becomes a point, meaning a minimum length doesn&#8217;t exist in a defined geometric sense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Q.48:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The locus of points at a given distance from a given point is a circle. What can we say about the locus of points equidistant from two given points?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Solution:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The locus of points equidistant from two given points {tex}A{\/tex} and {tex}B{\/tex} is indeed the perpendicular bisector of the segment {tex}A B{\/tex}. This means that every point on this line is the same distance from {tex}A{\/tex} as it is from {tex}B{\/tex}, and no point outside this line satisfies that condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To prove this, consider a point {tex}P{\/tex} on the perpendicular bisector that meets {tex}A B{\/tex} at midpoint {tex}M{\/tex}. By definition, {tex}A M=M B{\/tex} and {tex}\\angle P M A=\\angle P M B=90^{\\circ}{\/tex}. Since {tex}P M{\/tex} is a common side, triangles {tex}\\triangle P M A{\/tex} and {tex}\\triangle P M B{\/tex} are congruent by the SAS (Side-Angle-Side) criterion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because the triangles are congruent, the corresponding sides {tex}P A{\/tex} and {tex}P B{\/tex} must be equal ({tex}P A=P B{\/tex}). This confirms that any arbitrary point on the bisector is equidistant from the two given points. Consequently, the perpendicular bisector represents the complete set of all such points, fulfilling the definition of a locus in a two-dimensional plane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Q.49:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How many circles pass through two points on a plane?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Solution:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are infinitely many circles that can pass through any two given points on a plane. This is because the center of any such circle must be equidistant from both points, which means it can lie anywhere on the perpendicular bisector of the line segment connecting them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As you move a potential center point further away along this perpendicular bisector, the radius of the circle increases. Conversely, moving the center closer to the midpoint of the segment decreases the radius until the segment itself becomes the diameter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If we denote the two points as {tex}A{\/tex} and {tex}B{\/tex}, the smallest circle passing through them has its center exactly at the midpoint of {tex}A B{\/tex}. For every other point chosen on the infinite perpendicular bisector, a unique circle can be drawn, leading to an inexhaustible number of possibilities. This geometric property demonstrates that two points are insufficient to uniquely define a single circle, unlike three non-collinear points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Q.50:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Are there circles of all possible radii passing through A and B? What is the radius of the smallest circle passing through A and B? What is the radius of the largest circle passing through A and B?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Solution:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are not circles of all possible radii passing through points {tex}A{\/tex} and {tex}B{\/tex}. While there are infinitely many circles, the radius cannot be smaller than half the distance between the two points. Any value less than this would make it impossible for the circle to bridge the gap between {tex}A{\/tex} and {tex}B{\/tex}.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The smallest circle passing through {tex}A{\/tex} and {tex}B{\/tex} is the one where the segment {tex}A B{\/tex} acts as the diameter. In this case, the radius is exactly {tex}\\frac{1}{2} A B{\/tex}. The center of this circle is located at the midpoint of the segment {tex}A B{\/tex}, which is the closest possible center point to both {tex}A{\/tex} and {tex}B{\/tex} simultaneously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no largest circle passing through {tex}A{\/tex} and {tex}B{\/tex}. As the center of the circle moves further away along the perpendicular bisector of {tex}A B{\/tex}, the radius {tex}r{\/tex} continues to increase toward infinity. As the radius grows extremely large, the arc of the circle passing through {tex}A{\/tex} and {tex}B{\/tex} begins to look more and more like a straight line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In summary, the radii of circles passing through two points {tex}A{\/tex} and {tex}B{\/tex} can be any value in the interval {tex}\\left[\\frac{1}{2} A B, \\infty\\right){\/tex}. You can have a circle with a radius of {tex}1,000 {~km}{\/tex} passing through two points just 1 cm apart, but you can never have one with a radius of 0.4 cm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Q.51:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You are given two points A and B on a plane. How many squares can you draw on the same plane with A and B on the boundary? How many squares can you draw on the plane with A and B as the corners of the square?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Solution:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When points {tex}A{\/tex} and {tex}B{\/tex} are just anywhere on the boundary, there are infinitely many squares possible. This is because {tex}A{\/tex} and {tex}B{\/tex} could be on the same side, opposite sides, or adjacent sides at any position, allowing the square to be rotated or scaled around them in countless configurations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if {tex}A{\/tex} and {tex}B{\/tex} must be corners, the number of squares is limited to exactly three distinct cases based on their relative positions:<br><strong>Case 1:<\/strong> {tex}A B{\/tex} is a Side (Left). One square is formed by extending a side perpendicular to {tex}A B{\/tex} on one side of the line.<br><strong>Case 2:<\/strong> {tex}A B{\/tex} is a Side (Right). A second square is formed by extending the sides on the opposite side of the line {tex}A B{\/tex}.<br><strong>Case 3:<\/strong> {tex}A B{\/tex} is a Diagonal. Only one square exists where {tex}A{\/tex} and {tex}B{\/tex} are opposite vertices, as the other two corners are fixed by the perpendicular bisector of {tex}A B{\/tex}.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In summary, requiring points to be specific vertices significantly constrains the geometry compared to simply being on the perimeter. For the &#8220;corners&#8221; condition, the total number of unique squares you can draw is three.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">NCERT Solutions Class 9 Ganita Manjari<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mycbseguide.com\/blog\/the-use-of-coordinates-ncert-solutions-class-9-ganita-manjari\/\">The Use of Coordinates<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mycbseguide.com\/blog\/introduction-to-linear-polynomials-ncert-solutions-class-9-ganita-manjari\/\">Introduction to Linear Polynomials<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mycbseguide.com\/blog\/the-world-of-numbers-ncert-solutions-class-9-ganita-manjari\/\">The World of Numbers<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mycbseguide.com\/blog\/exploring-algebraic-identities-ncert-solutions-class-9-ganita-manjari\/\">Exploring Algebraic Identities<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mycbseguide.com\/blog\/im-up-and-down-and-round-and-round-ncert-solutions-class-9-ganita-manjari\/\">I\u2019m Up and Down, and Round and Round<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mycbseguide.com\/blog\/perimeter-and-area-ncert-solutions-class-9-ganita-manjari\/\">Measuring Space: Perimeter and Area<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mycbseguide.com\/blog\/introduction-to-probability-ncert-solutions-class-9-ganita-manjari\/\">The Mathematics of Maybe: Introduction to Probability<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/mycbseguide.com\/blog\/exploring-sequences-and-progressions-ncert-solutions-class-9-ganita-manjari\/\">Exploring Sequences and Progressions&nbsp;<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I\u2019m Up and Down, and Round and Round &#8211; NCERT Solutions Class 9 Maths Ganita Manjari includes all the questions with solutions given in NCERT Class 9 Ganita Manjari textbook.
