Preface
Mathematics is an essential tool for understanding the world around us. It is not just another subject, but an integral part of our lives. It shapes the very foundation of our understanding, personality and interaction with the world around us. Studies from across the globe have shown that proficiency in mathematics significantly influences career prospects and lifelong learning.
According to the NEP 2020, mathematics and mathematical thinking are crucial for empowering individuals in their everyday interactions and affairs. It focuses on competencies-based education, which essentially means actively and effectively applying mathematical concepts in real life. It also encourages innovative approaches for teaching maths, including regular use of puzzles, games and relatable real-world examples to make the subject engaging and enjoyable.
It is in this spirit that Uolo has introduced the Imagine Mathematics product for elementary grades (1 to 8). This product’s key objective is to eliminate the fear of mathematics by making math exciting, relatable and meaningful for children.
Imagine Mathematics positions itself on the curricular and pedagogical approach of the Gradual Release of Responsibility (GRR), which has been highly recommended by the NEP 2020, the NCF 2023 and other literature in learning and educational pedagogies. Subsequent pages elaborate further on this approach and its actualisation in this book.
This book incorporates highly acclaimed, learner-friendly teaching strategies. Each chapter introduces concepts through real-life situations and storytelling, connecting to children’s experiences and transitioning smoothly from concrete to abstract. These teacher manuals are designed to be indispensable companions for educators, providing well-structured guidance to make teaching mathematics both effective and enjoyable. With a focus on interactive and hands-on learning, the manuals include a variety of activities, games, and quizzes tailored to enhance conceptual understanding. By integrating these engaging strategies into the classroom, teachers can foster critical thinking and problem-solving skills among students. Moreover, the resources emphasise creating an enriched and enjoyable learning environment, ensuring that students not only grasp mathematical concepts but also develop a genuine interest in the subject.
In addition, the book is technologically empowered and works in sync with a parallel digital world, which contains immersive gamified experiences, video solutions and practice worksheets, among other things. Interactive exercises on the digital platform make learning experiential and help in concrete visualisation of abstract mathematical concepts. We invite educators, parents and students to embrace Imagine Mathematics and join us in nurturing the next generation of thinkers, innovators and problem-solvers. Embark on this exciting journey with us and let Imagine Mathematics be a valuable resource in your educational adventure.

Begin the class by giving 1–2 examples where negative numbers are seen. Ask questions like: How will you write the number if the lift goes below the ground floor? Introduce integer tiles to students. Explain that the red tiles represent negative integers, and the yellow tiles represent positive integers. Bring out the fact that a pair of red and yellow tiles represents 0. Instruct students to work in pairs. Distribute integer tiles among the pairs. Instruct students to add 5 and −6 using the integer tiles. Ask them to place the integer tiles (yellow tiles) that represent 5. Ask them to now place the integer tiles (red tiles) that represent −6 below the previous set. Instruct them to remove the pairs of integer tiles that make zero. Explain that the remaining number of integer tiles (−1) would be the answer. So, 5 + (−6) = −1. Instruct students to add the integers −8 and −3, 7 and −1 using the integer tiles. Ask students to note down the results in their notebooks using the addition sentence and discuss among their groups what they notice about the answers. Discuss the rules for the addition of integers with students. Ask questions like: What is the sign of the sum of 2 negative integers? Give them practice by running a quiz around adding integers.

Discuss how, in integers, multiplication is repeated addition or subtraction with 2 or more numbers. The first number tells us how many groups we are adding or removing. The second number tells us how many are in each group and whether they are positive (+) or negative (−).
Instruct students to work in pairs. Distribute integer tiles among the pairs.
Instruct students that they need to multiply 3 and −4 using the tiles. Once students show 3 groups of −4; ask them to note down the result in their notebooks.
Ask the pairs to now multiply −3 and −4 using the tiles. Discuss that since they need to multiply −3 by −4, they need to remove 3 groups of −4, but to take away 3 groups of 4 negative tiles, they first need to place zero tiles. Discuss that on taking away 4 negative tiles from each of the 3 neutral groups, they get 12 positive tiles. Ask them to write the result in their notebooks using the division sentence.

Instruct the pairs to show −15 ÷ 5 using the tiles by first showing −15 using red tiles (negative tiles) and then find the number of groups by dividing these tiles into 5 equal groups with 3 tiles in each group. We get −3 in each group. Ask them to note down the result in their notebooks.
Ask students to now show −15 ÷ −5 using the tiles. Explain that they will have to first place 15 negative (red) tiles. Since negative groups cannot be made, to divide −5, we keep 5 negative tiles in each group, and find the total number of groups formed. Ask them to write the result in their notebooks using the division sentence.

Students will be able to find the arithmetic mean or the mean of a given set of data.
Teaching Aids
Marbles; Paper cups; Cards (with data sets, e.g., 3, 5, 7, 9, 11)
Activity
Begin by explaining what the arithmetic mean is and how to calculate it. Divide the class into groups of 4.
Distribute the marbles and paper cups to each group. Also, distribute a set of cards to each group with data sets written on each card (e.g., 3, 5, 7, 9, 11).
Instruct students to put the marbles according to the data set in different paper cups. Ask them the total number of marbles used.
Ask questions like: Do all the cups have an equal number of marbles? How can we put an equal number of marbles in each cup?
Instruct students to divide the total number of marbles by the number of cups used and to write the result in their notebooks. Explain to them how the resulting number will give them the average number of marbles per cup, which represents the arithmetic mean.
If time permits, provide additional data sets to the groups, and ask them to find the arithmetic mean.

Begin the class by explaining the concept of a median and its use.
Instruct students to form groups. Provide each group with a set of building blocks in different colours. Some colours may have more blocks or repeats than other colours.
Instruct students to use the building blocks to build towers. Ask them to note down the number of blocks used for each colour in their notebooks. Also, ask them to arrange the colours in ascending order based on the number of blocks they used for each. For example, if they used 1 blue, 2 orange, 3 yellow, 4 green and 5 red blocks, order them as: blue, orange, orange, yellow, yellow, yellow, green, green, green, green, red, red, red, red, red.
Ask students to count the total number of building blocks they used to make the tower. Guide each group to find the colour that represents the middle value of the data set. Explain how this colour represents the median of the data set.
Ask questions like: Did your group use an odd or even total number of blocks? Why do you think we have different ways to find the median for odd and even counts? How did using coloured blocks help you understand the concept of the median?
Extension Idea
Ask: The numbers 17, p, 24, p + 7, 35, 36, 46 are written in ascending order. If the median of the data is 25, what is the value of p?
Say: There are 7 observations. So, the median is the 7 + 1 2 th = 4th observation, i.e., p + 7. Hence, p + 7 = 25, and p = 18. The numbers are 18, 18, 24, 25, 35, 36 and 46.

1. Forming Linear Equations
Do It Together
Let the runs scored by Aakash be X Sahil scored twice as many runs as Aakash = 2x Together, their runs fell four short of 100 = 100 – 4 = 96
This situation can be represented in the form of an equation as: x + 2x = 96
On simplifying the equation, we get, 3x = 96.
2. Solving Equations: Same Operation on Both Sides
Do It Together
1. We shall multiply both sides of the equation with 12 13
13c 11 × 12 13 = 9 × 12 13 ⇒ 13 12 × 12 13 × c = 9 × 12 13
On simplifying both sides, we get, c = 108 13
2. We shall subtract 20 from both sides of the equation.
3b + 20 – 20 = 32 – 20
On simplifying both sides, we get,
3b = 12
We should now divide both sides of the equation by 3
3b
3 = 12 3 ⇒ b = 4
Verification: Substituting b = 4 in the given equation, we get
3 × 4 + 20 = 12 + 20 = 32 = RHS
Hence, the solution is verified as correct.
3. Solving Equations: Transposition
Do It Together
1. 13c = 26 × 12 [Transposing 12 from LHS to RHS]
13c = 312
c = 312 13 [Transposing 13 from LHS to RHS]
So, c = 24
Verification: Substituting c = 13 in the given equation, we get, 13 × 24 12 = 312 13 = 26 = RHS
Hence, the solution is verified as correct.
2. 3b = 32 – 20 [Transposing 20 from LHS to RHS]
3b = 12
b = 12 3 [Transposing 3 from LHS to RHS]
So, b = 4
Verification: Substituting b = 4 in the given equation, we get,
3 × 4 + 20 = 12 + 20 = 32 = RHS
Hence, the solution is verified as correct.
3. 1.6x – 2.4 – 0.5x = 6 [Opening the brackets of LHS]
On simplifying the RHS, we get, x = 4
4. Applications of Simple Equations
Do It Together
On simplifying the LHS, we get,
2(2x + 5) = 142 ⇒ 10x + 10 = 142
On transposing 10 from the LHS to the RHS, the operation changes from addition to subtraction.
4x = 142 − 10
On simplifying, we get,
x = 132 4 ; x = 33 metres
Breadth of the rectangular plot is 33 metres.

Instruct students in Group 1 to measure the length of side AB and ∠A and ∠B in ΔABC, and the students in Group 2 to measure the length of side XY and ∠X and ∠Y in ΔXYZ. They will then move around the classroom to find the student whose triangle has the exact same measurements. Once they have found their partners, they will work together to prove the congruence in their notebooks.
Prompt them to consider whether this method also satisfies the criteria for SSS and SAS congruence.
Extension Idea
Ask: The measures of 2 angles of a triangle are 45° and 60°. The angles of another triangle measure 45° and 75°. If these 2 triangles have 1 side measuring 13 cm, are they both congruent using the ASA rule?
Say: 180° – 45° + 60° = 75°. Although the 3 angles in both triangles are equal, we do not know if the included side in both triangles has the same measurement. So, the triangles may not be congruent using the ASA rule.

Glue stick; Sheets of paper; Cut-outs of congruent right-angled triangles and some distractor triangles
Activity
Begin the class by introducing the RHS congruence criteria. Make cut-outs of pairs of right-angled triangles with equal lengths of the hypotenuse, one leg and the angle opposite to the hypotenuse measuring 90° (following the RHS rule) and some distractor triangles. Instruct students to work in pairs.
Distribute a sheet of paper, triangle cut-outs and a glue stick to each pair.
Congruent Triangles Using the RHS Rule
Instruct them to measure the length of the longest side, the angle opposite the longest side, which should be 90°, and one of the arms of the 90° angle. They will then write the measures inside the triangle and make pairs of triangles that overlap exactly or are congruent. They should paste the pairs of triangles on the sheet of paper and label them as ‘Congruent Triangles Using the RHS Rule’.
Extension Idea
Ask: One triangle has a right angle and a hypotenuse measuring 10 cm. Another triangle has a right angle and a side measuring 6 cm. If these 2 triangles are congruent, what is the length of the third side of the first triangle?
Say: Since the triangles are congruent, the first triangle has a hypotenuse measuring 10 cm and a side measuring 6 cm. We can find the length of the third side using Pythagoras’ theorem where 102 = a2 + 62. On solving this, we get a2 = 102 – 62 and a = 8. So, the length of the third side is 8 cm.
Answers
1. Medians and Altitudes
Think and Tell
We can show the medians of a triangle by drawing a line from the vertex to the centre of the opposite side.
Do It Together
SR = QR (Since PR is the median to the side SQ and R is the midpoint of SQ.)
SQ = SR + RQ. So, SQ = 7 + 7 = 14 cm
PG:GR = 2 : 1 (Property of a centroid)
PR = PG + GR (G lies between P and R)
So, PR = 8 + (8 ÷ 2) = 8 + 4 = 12 cm
2. Angle Sum Property of a Triangle
Do It Together
Using the angle sum property of a triangle,
BAC + ABC + ACB = 180°
(x + 5)° + (x + 10)° + (2x + 5)° = 180°
4x + 20° = 180°
So, x = (180° – 20°) ÷ 4 = 160° ÷ 4 = 40°
Using the value of x,
(x + 5)° = 45°
(x + 10)° = 50°
(2x + 5)° = 85°
The measures of the angles are 45°, 50° and 85°
3. Exterior Angle Sum Property of a Triangle
Do It Together
Step 1
PQR + QPR = PRS (Using the exterior angle sum property)
Substituting the values of the respective angles,
PQR + 80° = 140°
So, PQR = 140° − 80° = 60°
Step 2
PQR + QPR + PRQ = 180° (angle sum property)
Putting the values of the respective angles,
60° + 80° + PRQ = 180°
PRQ = 180° − (60° + 80°) = 180° − 140° = 40°
The angles of the triangle PQR are 60°, 80° and 40°
4. Properties of the Sides of a Triangle
Do It Together
We know that Side 1 + Side 2 > Side 3. (The triangle inequality property)
Finding the sum of the two sides, Side 1 + Side 2 = 4 cm + 12 cm = 16 cm
We know that Side 1 – Side 2 < Side 3. (The triangle inequality property)
Finding the difference of the two sides, Side 1 – Side 2 = 12 cm – 4 cm = 8 cm
Therefore, the length of the third side of the triangle has to be more than 8 cm but less than 16 cm
5. The Pythagoras Theorem
Think and Tell
In a right-angled triangle ABC, if AB2 = AC2 + BC2, then the right angle is ACB.
Do It Together
AB = 8 m, CD = 16 m and BD = 6 m
Draw AE || BD meeting CD at E. Then, ABDE is a rectangle.
Using the properties of a rectangle, ED = 8 m and AE = 6 m
In a right-angled triangle AEC, we have, AC2 = CE2 + AE2
Putting the values, AC2 = 82 + 62 = 64 + 36 = 100 = 10 × 10 AC = 10 m
The distance between the tops of the two poles is 10 m.
6. Congruence in Shapes and Figures
Do It Together
We know that ABCD = PQRS.
The correspondence is ABCD PQRS.
A P
D S
BC QR
PQR ABC
The corresponding sides are: AB and PQ; BC and QR; CD and RS; DA and SP.
7. SSS Congruence Criteria
Do It Together
In ΔABC and ΔDEC,
AB = DE (side)
BC = CD (side)
AC = CE (side)
Therefore, by the SSS congruence criteria, ΔABC = ΔDEC.
8. SAS Congruence Criteria
Do It Together
We know that ΔPQR = ΔXYZ.
So, PQ = XY = z
QR = YZ = 6 cm
PR = XZ = x and R = Z = y
z = 5 cm
x = 8 cm y = 50°
9. ASA Congruence Criteria
Do It Together
In ΔAOC and ΔBOD, CAO = DBO (given)
AO = BO (given)
AOC = BOD (vertically opposite angles)
Therefore, by the ASA congruence criteria, ΔAOC = ΔBOD
10. RHS Congruence Criteria
Do It Together
In ΔABD and ΔACD, ∠ABD = ACD = 90°
AD = AD (common side)
AB = AC = 4.9 cm
Therefore, by the RHS congruence criteria, ΔABD = ΔACD.

Begin by revising the concept of the simplest form of a ratio. Instruct students to work in groups. Distribute the red and blue building blocks among the groups.
Ask students to build a simple structure, using both coloured building blocks. After the structures are built, instruct students to write down the ratio of the red and blue blocks used in its simplest form in their notebooks.
Ask the groups to build another structure by using double the red and blue blocks used earlier. Example: If 6 red blocks and 4 blue blocks were used earlier, ask them to use 12 red and 8 blue blocks. Ask them to write down the ratio of red and blue blocks used in its simplest form in their notebooks.
Ask them to discuss in their groups what they notice about the simplest form of both ratios. Bring out the fact that two ratios are equivalent when their simplest form is the same.
Help them understand that equivalent ratios can be found if the numerator and denominator are multiplied or divided by the same natural number. Give them questions for practice in their notebooks.
Extension Idea
Ask: What is the ratio of length to breadth of a rectangle with a perimeter of 180 cm, where the length is 10 cm more than the breadth?
Say: Let b = x cm and l = x + 10. So, 2 (x + x + 10) = 180 ⇒ x = b = 40 cm and l = 50 cm. Therefore, the ratio is 5:4.

Once the groups are done forming the rectangles, ask them to look closely at the rectangles they created and note down the ratio of length to width of both rectangles in their simplest form.
Ask questions like: Is the simplest ratio of length to width of both the rectangles equal?
If not, ask them to change the length and width of the second rectangle so that it has the same ratio of length to width as the first rectangle. Once students are done, review the rectangles formed and conclude that if the simplest ratios are equal, the ratios are said to be in proportion.

Begin the lesson by introducing the concept of rational numbers and their representation. Instruct students to form groups of 4 each and name the teams: Team A, Team B, Team C and so on.
Make a number line using chalk on the floor at the front of the classroom where all the students can see it. Shuffle the cards with rational numbers (e.g., 1 2 , –3 4 etc.) and place them face down in a pile on the teacher’s desk. Each team will take turns drawing a card from the pile and discuss and decide where the rational number on the card should be plotted on the number line. Once they make their decision, they will send one member to the front to plot the number on the number line. For instance, Team A draws a card with the rational number –3 4 . They discuss and decide it should be plotted between –1 and 0 on the number line. If the number is plotted correctly, the team earns a point. If not, they lose a point. The next team takes its turn, and play continues until all rational numbers have been plotted.
After all the rational numbers have been plotted, tally the points earned by each team. The team with the most points wins the game.

Activity
Begin by reviewing the concept of finding a rational number between any 2 rational numbers.
Write pairs of rational numbers on cards, for example: 1 3 and 1 2, 2 5 and 1 2 etc.
Shuffle the cards and place them face down in a stack. Divide the students into teams of 10.
Take the students to the playground.
Make a start line and arrange the teams in lines, with each line standing behind a designated starting point. Explain that the game involves a relay race to find a rational number between 2 given rational numbers.
When the game starts, the first player from each team picks up the top card from the stack, reads the pair of rational numbers and finds a rational number between them. Once the player finds a rational number, they run to a designated endpoint (e.g., a wall) and back to their team to hand over the card and write the answer in their notebooks. The next player in line repeats the process, finding a rational number between the given pair on the card and running the relay.
The game continues until all players on a team have completed the relay race. The first team to complete the relay race with all players finding rational numbers between the given pairs wins the game.

Extension Idea
Ask: A rectangular field has a perimeter of 40 m, where the width is one-fourth the length. If on expanding the field, the perimeter remains constant and its width is the same as its length, then how will the area before and after expansion differ from each other?
Say: Perimeter = 2 (l + b) = 40 and b = l 4 . So, 2 (l + l 4 ) = 40 5l 2 = 40 l = 40 × 2 5 = 16 m. Therefore, b = 16 4 = 4 m.
Also, area before expansion = 16 × 4 = 64 sq. m. After expansion, Perimeter = 2 (l + b) = 40 and b = l. So, 2 (l + l) = 40 4l = 40 l = 40 4 = 10 m. Therefore, b = 10 m. Also, area after expansion = l × b = 10 × 10 = 100 sq. m. Hence, if the breadth is the same as its length on expanding the field, the area increases by 100 – 64 = 36 sq. m.

Once they deduce the formulas, ask them to find the perimeter of the shapes by measuring the length of one of the sides using the ruler and then applying the formula to find the perimeter. They will then measure the length of all the sides to see if they get the same perimeter. Let them solve in their notebooks. Ask them to discuss in their groups to see if they got the same perimeter. Encourage them to deduce the formula for the area of a square, rectangle and triangle as well.

8. Height of each floor = 5 m
Distance travelled above basement = 20 × 5 = 100 m
Distance travelled below basement = 2 × 5 = 10 m
Distance to be covered = 100 + 10 = 110 m

9. The initial position of the parachute = 1800 m above ground level (+1800)
The final position of the parachute = 300 m above the ground level (+300)
Therefore, the distance between the final and the initial position = 300 − 1800 = −1500 m
The distance covered in 1 minute = 20 m
As the parachute is coming down (descends), the distance covered in 1 minute will be (−20 m)
Therefore, time taken to cover (−1500) m = (−1500) ÷ (−20) = 75 minutes.
Therefore, the parachute will take 75 minutes to reach 300 m above the ground level.
10. Number of points lost in the first level for each fall = 2

Challenge
1. Temperature recorded at 12 noon = 18℃
Rate of fall in temperature = 3℃ per hour
Difference in temperature at noon and 6℃ below zero = 18℃
− (−6℃) = 18℃ + 6℃ = 24℃
Number of hours it took to drop by 24℃ = 24℃ 3℃/hour = 8 hours
Hence, the temperature at 8 p.m. would be 6℃ below zero
Drop in temperature from 12 noon to midnight = 12 × 3℃ = 36℃
Temperature at midnight = 18℃ − 36℃ = −18℃.

Range = Highest observation − Lowest observation = 30 − 5 = 25
8. Mean of 5 numbers = 26
So, sum of all the observations = mean × total number of observations = 5 × 26 = 130
Sum when 6 is removed from the observations = 130 − 6 = 124
Thus, the new mean = 124 4 = 31
The new mean is greater than the original mean.
9. Given that the mean of 5 numbers is 38, so the sum of the numbers will be:
Mean =
Sum of all observations 38= No. of observations 6 ⇒
Sum of 5 numbers of all observations 38= of observations 6 ⇒
Sum of 5 numbers = 38 × 5 = 190
Sum of 5 numbers
Given that when a number is added, the new mean reduces by 2 = 38 − 2 = 36
Sum of 6 numbers = 36 × 6 = 216
The value of added number = Sum of 6 numbers − Sum of 5 numbers = 216 − 190 = 26.
Hence, the added number is 26.
10. 2, 4, 6, 6, 2x + 1, 9, 9, 10, 11 are written in ascending order.
Number of observations = 9
Median = 7
+
Also, median = 1 2 n
th observation = 91 2
+
th observation = 5th observation = 2x + 1
Thus, 2x + 1 = 7
⇒ 2x = 7 − 1
⇒ 2x = 6
⇒ x = 6 2
⇒ x = 3
11. Sum of the lengths of all the rivers = 724 + 1376 + 800 + 2525 = 5425 km
Mean length = 5425 4 = 1356.25 km
So, the mean length of the rivers visited by the troop is 1356.25 km.
12. 72, 73, 72, 76, 72, 74, 73, 75, 76, 74, 72 are the scores of the team members of a golf team.
Mean would be the most appropriate tendency of measure to find the average score of the team members because the scores are relatively close and there are no extreme values that would change the average.
Minimum score = 72
Maximum score = 76
Range = Maximum score − Minimum score = 76 − 72 = 4
Challenge
1. Mean attendance from Monday to Saturday = 33
Total attendance from Monday to Saturday = 33 × 6 = 198
Mean attendance from Monday to Thursday = 32
Total attendance from Monday to Thursday = 32 × 4 = 128
Mean attendance from Thursday to Saturday = 34
Total attendance from Thursday to Saturday = 34 × 3 = 102
Total attendance from Monday to Thursday + Total attendance from Thursday to Saturday = 128 + 102 = 230
So, the attendance on Thursday = 230 − 198 = 32.
2. Since 47 values are between 1 and 5, it is likely that one or more of these numbers may occur frequently. If any of these values is the mode, it reflects the most typical or popular choice among the observations.
The mode is not affected by the 3 values more than 50. Therefore, central tendency mode will better represent the typical value of the data set.

1. The graph is misleading. The numbers on the y-axis starts at 19. It should always start at 0. The tabular form and correct graph would be:
2. Assertion (A): The ratio of the total sales of branch B2 for both years to the total sales of branch B4 for both years is 210:170
Sales of books of branch B2 in 2010 = 100 thousand
Sales of books of branch B2 in 2011 = 110 thousand
Total sales of branch B2 in two years = 100 + 110 = 210 thousand
Sales of books of branch B4 in 2010 = 90 thousand
Sales of books of branch B4 in 2011 = 80 thousand
Total sales of branch B2 in two years = 90 + 80 = 170 thousand
The ratio of total sales = 210:170
So, the assertion is true.
Reason (R): Ratio is the relation between two numbers which shows how much bigger one quantity is than another. So, the reason is true and it explains the assertion correctly. Thus, the correct answer is option a.
Case Study
1. Height of Nanga Parbat = 8300 m
Height of Annapurna = 8100 m
Height of Kanchenjunga = 8500 m
Height of Nanda Devi = 7900 m
Height of Mount Everest = 8800 m
Height of Aconcagua = 6900 m
8800 m > 8500 m > 8300 m > 8100 m > 7900 m > 6900 m
So, Mt Everest > Kanchenjunga > Nanga Parbat > Annapurna > Nanda Devi > Aconcagua is the required descending order. Thus, option c is correct
2. Highest peak = Mt Everest
Height of the highest peak = 8800 m
Lowest peak = Aconcagua
Height of the lowest peak = 6900 m
Ratio = 8800 m : 6900 m = 88 : 69
3. Average height of other five mountains

Height of Mount Everest = 8800 m
Difference in height of Mt Everest to the average height of other mountains = 8800 − 7920 = 880 m
4. Arrange the height of the mountains in ascending order
6900, 7900, 8000, 8300, 8500, 8800
Total observations = 6 (Even number)
Median = 3rd term 4th term 2 + 80008300 = =8150 2 +
Hence, median height = 8150 m
If a mountain of height 8600 is added to the list the new ascending order will be:
6900, 7900, 8000, 8300, 8500, 8600, 8800

30 x =
Hence, statements 1 and 2 together are sufficient to answer. Both statements together are sufficient. Thus, option c is the correct answer.
Case Study
1. The overall charge of an atom is determined by adding the charges of its electrons and protons.
The expression for an overall charge of chlorate anion can be given as: b + 17. Thus, option a is correct.
2. Given that the overall charge of carbonate anion is −2.
Charge from electron + charge from proton = Overall charge −32 + f = −2
f = −2 + 32
Hence, d is the answer
3. Charge from electron + charge from proton = Overall charge −10 + a = 1
a = 1 + 10 = 11
Hence, the charge from the proton in sodium cation is 11. Thus, the correct option is c.
4. Charge from electron + Charge from proton = Overall charge
c + 12 = 2
c = 2 − 12 = −10
Hence, the charge from electron in magnesium cation is −10.
5. Let the charge from electron in barium cation = x
Charge from proton = x + 110
Given that overall charge in barium cation = +2
We know that charge from electron + charge from proton = overall charge
Substituting the values, we get
x + (x + 110) = 2
2x + 110 = 2
2x = 2 – 110
2x = −108
x = −54
Hence charge from electron = −54
Charge from proton = −54 + 110 = 56

c. (2x + 15)° + (2x + 25)° + (x − 20)° + 90° = 360°
5x + 110° = 360°

So, x = 250° 5 = 50°
6. (3x + 10)° + (7x − 20)° = 90°

m + 60° = 180°.
So, m = 180° − 60° = 120°

1. Assertion (A): If a transversal intersects two parallel lines, then the interior angles on the same side of the transversal are supplementary angles.
Reason (R): The sum of the measures of two supplementary angles is 180°.
The assertion is correct because when a transversal intersects two parallel lines, the interior angles on the same side of the transversal are supplementary.
The reason is also correct because the sum of two supplementary angles is 180°.
The reason does not explain the assertion.
So, both assertion and reason are true, but the reason does not explain the assertion.
So, option b is true.
Since l and m are parallel lines and PQ, RS and TU are transversal.
Then, ∠4 = ∠QPS (alternate interior angles)
∠4 = 84°
∠1 = ∠QOR = 40° (vertically opposite angles)
PQ and TU are parallel and m and l are transversal.

1. 0.2x + 60° + x + 80° = 180°
x = 180° − 140°
x = 40 ÷ 1.2 = 33.3°
x = 33.3°
2. 0.2x + 60° + 90° + angle between block A and block B = 180°
(0.2 × 33.3°) + 150° + angle between block A and block B = 180°
6.66° + 150° + angle between block A and block B = 180° angle between block A and block B = 180° − 156.66° = 23.34°
3. The headquarters and block A are parallel and the extended line of inner area is the transversal.
∠C = ∠A (corresponding angles are equal)
∠A = 0.2x + 60°
= (0.2 × 33.3°) + 60° = 66.66°
Thus, measure of ∠A = 66.66° ≈ 66.7° So, option d is correct
4. Use the information obtained in Q2 and identify that these lines are not parallel. Since the angle obtained between headquarters and training centre is 30° and that from Q2 is 23.34°.
Which helps us conclude that these lines are not parallel. Thus, option b is correct.

1. a. Median is a line segment that connects a vertex of the triangle to the midpoint of the opposite side.
b. Altitude is a line segment perpendicular to a side of the triangle.
c. The point where the altitudes intersect is called the orthocenter of the triangle.
d. An altitude may or may not lie inside the triangle.
2. A median is a line segment that connects a vertex of the triangle to the midpoint of the opposite side.
Each triangle has three medians, one from each vertex. The point where the medians intersect is called the centroid of the triangle.
In triangle ABC, AR is the median to side BC, C is the median to side AB and BQ is the median to the side AC.
3. If BD is the median of triangle ABC, AD is given as 5 cm.
AC = AD + DC
As BD is the median, AD = DC
AC = AD + AD = 2 × AD
AC = 2 × 5 cm = 10 cm
The length of AC is 10 cm.
4. The centre of mass in a triangle will be at the centroid. The centroid is always located inside the triangle, regardless of the type of triangle (acute, obtuse or right).
Thus, option a is correct.
5. AD and CE are the two medians in a triangle ABC on the opposite sides BC and AB, respectively.
G is the centroid, therefore, AG:GD = 2:1 (property of a centroid)
AG = 2 cm
GD = 1 2 × AG = 2 2 = 1 cm
AD = 2 + 1 = 3 cm
A median divide the opposite side in two equal parts, therefore,
BD = CD = 4 cm
BC = BD + CD = 4 + 4 = 8 cm
6. Medians of the given triangle are CF, EB and AD.
a. G is the centroid, therefore, GE:BG = 2:1 (property of a centroid)
BG = 5 cm,
GE = (2 × 5)cm = 10 cm
BE = BG + GE

b. CG:GF = 2:1 (property of centroid)
CG = 16 cm,
GF = 16 2 = 8 cm
CF = CG + GF = 16 cm + 8 cm = 24 cm
c. AD = 30 cm
AG:GD = 2:1 (property of centroid)
AG = 2 3 × 30 = 20 cm
GD = 1 3 × 30 = 10 cm
d. GC:GF = 2:1 (property of centroid)
GF = x
GC = 2 × x = 2x
CF = GF + GC = x + 2x = 3x
e. AG:GD = 2:1 (property of centroid)
AG = 2 × GD
9x = 2 × (5x − 1)
9x = 10x − 2
10x − 9x = 2
x = 2
AD = AG + GD

1. a. ∠x + 35° + 40° = 180° (Angle sum property of a triangle)
∠x = 180° − 75° = 105°
b. (x + 2)° + (3x + 3)° + (2x + 10)° = 180° (Angle sum property of a triangle)
6x + 15 = 180°
6x = 180° − 15° = 165°
x = 165° 6 = 27.5°
c. x + y + y = 180° (Angle sum property of a triangle)
x + 2y = 180°
Also, 2y = 110° (Sum of two interior opposite angles is equal to the exterior angle)
y = 110 2 = 55°
x + 55° + 55° = 180°
x = 180° − 110°
x = 70°
d. 30° + 120° + x = 180° (Angle sum property of a triangle)
150° + x = 180°
x = 180° − 150°
x = 30°
y + 90° = 120° (Exterior angle property of a triangle)
y = 120° − 90°
y = 30°
2. Given: The angles of the triangle are in the ratio 5:6:7.
Let the angles be 5x, 6x and 7x. Since the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180°,
5x + 6x + 7x = 180°
Solving for x:
18x = 180°
x = 10°
Therefore, the angles are 5x = 50°, 6x = 60° and 7x = 70°.
The measures of the angles are 50°, 60° and 70°.
3. One of the exterior angles of a triangle = 130°
Ratio of interior opposite angles = 2:3
By the exterior angle property,
2x + 3x = 130°
5x = 130° ⇒ x = 26°
The angles of the triangle are—
2x = 2 × 26° = 52°;
3x = 3 × 26° = 78°, and 130° + ∠y = 180°
∠y = 180° − 130° = 50°
Therefore, the angles of the triangle are 52°, 78° and 50°.
4. a + b + c = 180°
45° + 60° + c = 180°
c = 180° − 105°
c = 75°
5. Given: In triangle ABC, angle A is 50° more than angle B and 20° less than angle C
Let angle B be x. Then, angle A = x + 50° and angle C = x + 50°
+ 20° = x + 70°.
Since the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180°.
x + (x + 50°) + (x + 70°) = 180°
Solving for x : 3x + 120° = 180°, 3x = 60°, x = 20°
Therefore, angle A = 70°, angle B = 20°, and angle C = 90°.
The angles of the triangle are 70°, 20° and 90°.
6. Given:
In triangle ABC, ∠A − ∠B = 15° and ∠B − ∠C = 30°.
Let angle B be x
Then, angle A = x + 15° and angle C = x − 30°.
Since the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180°.
(x + 15°) + x + (x − 30°) = 180°
Solving for x:
3x − 15° = 180°
3x = 195°
x = 65°
Therefore, angle A = 80°, angle B = 65°, and angle C = 35°.
7. a. To show
∠ACD = ∠A + ∠B
BA parallel to CE (given)
AC is a transversal that cuts AB and CE.
∠1 = ∠3 (alternate interior angles)
A
BC is a transversal that cuts lines AB and CE
∠2 = ∠4 (corresponding angles)
∠1 + ∠2 + ∠BCA = 180°
∠BCA + ∠3 + ∠4 = 180° (linear pair)
∠BCA = 180° − (∠3 + ∠4)
∠1 + ∠2 + 180° − (∠3 + ∠4) = 180°
∠1 + ∠2 = ∠3 + ∠4
Thus, ∠A + ∠B = ∠ACD
Hence proved
b. To show: ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°
∠BCD = ∠ACB + ∠3 + ∠4 = 180° (Straight angle) — eq 1
Since ∠3 + ∠4 = ∠ACD, ∠3 + ∠4 = ∠1 + ∠2 (From (a))
Substituting in—eq 1,
∠BCD = ∠ACB + ∠1 + ∠2
∠BCD = ∠C+ ∠A + ∠B
∠C+ ∠A + ∠B = 180°
Hence, ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°
8. PQT = TQR (given)
Let us take the angles PQT as x.
So, PQT = TQR = x
∠RQS + ∠PQU = 80° (from figure)
Therefore, ∠PQU = ∠TQU − ∠TQP
∠PQU = 90° − x° (∠TQU = 90°, since QT is perpendicular to US)
Similarly, ∠RQS = 90° − x°
Therefore, ∠PQU = ∠RQS
Since ∠RQS + ∠PQU = 80°
∠RQS + ∠RQS = 80°
2∠RQS = 80°
∠RQS = 40°
∠UQS = ∠PQU + ∠PQT + ∠TQR + ∠RQS
180° = 40° + x + x + 40°
180° = 80° + 2x 100° = 2x; x = 50°
The measure of ∠PQT is 50°.

4. Given, PS is the median, hence, QS = SR
By triangle inequality property,
PQ + QS > PS
Similarly, PR + SR > PS
Adding both inequalities, PQ + QS + PR + SR > PS + PS
Since QS + SR = QR
PQ + QR + PR > 2PS
As we have shown that the triangle inequality property holds true for this statement, hence, PQ + QR + PR > 2 PS.

1450 + 1350 > 2200
1450 + 2200 > 1350

1. Given: A triangle ABC with AB = 5 cm, BC = 6 cm and AC = 7 cm. O is a point in the triangle.
There is no information about point O being joined to anything. We can assume that O is any arbitrary point in the triangle.
To prove: AO + BO + CO > 9 cm
By the Triangle Inequality Theorem,
AO + BO > AB
BO + CO > BC
CO + AO > AC
Adding these inequalities:
(AO + BO) + (BO + CO) + (CO + AO) > AB + BC + AC
2(AO + BO + CO) > AB + BC + AC
AO + BO + CO > (AB + BC + AC) 2
Since AB + BC + AC = 5 + 6 + 7 = 18 cm:
AO + BO + CO > 18 2
AO + BO + CO > 9 cm
Therefore, AO + BO + CO is greater than 9 cm.

p2 = 256 = 16 × 16
So, p = 16 m
b. h = 25 cm
b = 7 cm
Using Pythagoras theorem,
h2 = b2 + p2
252 = b2 + 72
625 = b2 + 49
625 − 49 = b2
b2 = 576 = 24 × 24
So, b = 24 cm
c. h = 30 m
b = 24 m
Using Pythagoras theorem,
h2 = b2 + p2
302 = 242 + p2

1. Let us denote the lengths of the legs of the triangle as a and b, with (a > b).
Given that the hypotenuse is 10 units and the difference between the legs is 2 units,
a2 + b2 = 102 (from the Pythagorean theorem)
a − b = 2
a = b + 2
(b + 2)2 + b2 = 102 = 100
2b2 + 4b + 4 = 100
2b2 + 4b = 100 − 4 = 96
2b2 + 4b − 96 = 0
b2 + 2b − 48 = 0
Solving the equation
(b + 8)(b − 6) = 0
The value of b cannot be negative, so b = 6 cm
a = b + 2 = 6 + 2 = 8 cm
So, the lengths of the legs are 6 cm and 8 cm.

1. Assertion (A): If two angles are congruent, their corresponding sides are also congruent.
Reason (R): Two angles are congruent if they have the same measure.
Assertion is false because congruent angles alone do not guarantee that the corresponding sides are congruent. For the sides to be congruent, the triangles must be congruent, which requires all corresponding angles and sides to be congruent.
Reason (R) is true because two angles are congruent if they have the same measure, regardless of the length of their corresponding sides.
Breadth = AQ = 5 cm
Length = AC = AB + BC = 5 + 5 cm = 10 cm
Area = Length = Breadth = 10 cm × 5 cm = 50 cm2

Then,
Area of rectangle PQRS = Area of rectangle PABD + Area of rectangle DBCS + Area of rectangle ACRQ
= 50 cm2 + 50 cm2 + 50 cm2
= 150 cm2
So, the area of rectangle PQRS is 150 cm2

4. Using the angle sum property of a triangle,
a. (x − 10)° + (4x − 10)° + 70° = 180°
x − 10° + 4x − 10° + 70° = 180°
5x − 20° + 70° = 180°
5x + 50° = 180°
5x = 180° − 50° = 130°
x = 26°
∠P = (x − 10)° = (26 − 10)° = 16°
∠Q = (4x − 10) ° = (4 × 26 − 10)° = 94°
b. Using the angle sum property in triangle FGH,
x° + 80° + 50° = 180°
x + 130° = 180°

Since AB = AC, triangle ABC is an isosceles triangle. In an isosceles triangle base angles are equal.
So, ∠B = 54°.
x = 54° (vertically opposite angles)
Using the angle sum property in triangle ABC,
54° + 54° + y = 180°
108° + y = 180°
y = 180° − 108°
y = 72°
5. Given : An isosceles triangle ABC with AC = BC; and AB2 = 2AC2
To prove: ABC is a right−angled triangle.
Proof:
In triangle ACB,
AC = BC
The angles corresponding to these sides are equal hence, these two angles must be less than 90 degrees.
Since AB2 = 2AC2
AB2 = AC2 + AC2
AB2 = AC2 + BC2 (since AC = BC)
By the Pythagoras theorem,
Triangle ABC is a right−angled triangle. (Hence proved)
6. In a television set, the diagonal (d), width (w) and height (h) can be represented using the Pythagoras theorem.
d2 = w2 + h2
Given: the diagonal (d) is 52 inches and the width (w) is 48 inches:
522 = 482 + h2
522 = 482 + h2
h2 = 522 − 482
h2 = 2704 − 2304
h2 = 400 = 20 × 20
h = 20 inches
Therefore, the height of the television screen is 20 inches.
7. In ΔABC,
AB = 6 cm
AC = 8 cm
BC = AB2 + BC2 = 62 + 82
= 36 + 64 = 100 = 10 cm
In ΔPQR,
PQ = 6 cm
PR = 10 cm
QR = PQ2 + PR2 = 62 + 102 = 36 + 100 = 136 = 2 34 cm
In ΔABC and ΔPQR,
AB = PQ
BC = PR
AC ≠ QR
So, by SSS congruence criteria ΔABC ≠ ΔPQR

9. The situation given in the question forms right-angled triangles. Let w be the width of the street when the ladder is placed against the wall on one side of the street.
Using the Pythagorean theorem,
52 + w2 = 132 = 169
w2 = 169 − 25 = 144
w2 = 12 × 12
w = 12 m
Similarly, let z be the width of the street when the ladder is placed against the wall on the other side of the street.
122 + z2 = 132 = 169
z2 = 169 − 144 = 25 = 5 × 5
z = 5 m
Width of the street = w + z = 12 + 5 = 17 m

Then, ∠R = ∠Q
⇒ PQ = PR
Similarly,
PS = QT
⇒∠Q = ∠P
⇒ PR = QR
Together, we get PQ = QR = RP or ∆PQR is equilateral.
Since, all the angles of an equilateral triangle are equal then,
∠P = ∠Q = ∠R = x
So, x + x + x = 180°
3x = 180°
⇒ x = 180 3 = 60°

12. The triangles are congruent but scaled up by a factor of 2. One section of the lattice measures 50 metres on each side, So, the new dimensions of the scaled-up section will be 50 m × 2 = 100 m
13. ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180° (Angle sum property)
60° + 80° + ∠C = 180°
∠C = 180° − 140° = 40°
Since ∠B and ∠C are bisected, In ∆BOC, ∠B = 40° and ∠C = 20°
∠B + ∠C + ∠O = 180°
∠O = 180° − 60° = 120°
Hence, ∠C = 40° and ∠BOC = 120°

Challenge
1. Assertion (A): (AC)2 = (AD)2 + 2(BD)2 + (CD)2
Reason (R): According to the Pythoras Theorem, (Hypotenuse)2 = (Perpendicular)2 + (Base)2
Assertion:
Consider ΔABC, Apply the Pythagoras theorem, (AC)2 = (AB)2 + (BC)2 (i)
Consider ΔABD, Apply the Pythagoras theorem, (AB)2 = (AD)2 + (BD)2 (ii)
Consider ΔBDC, Apply the Pythagoras theorem, (BC)2 = (CD)2 + (BD)2 (iii)
Add (ii) and (iii), (AB)2 + (BC)2 = (AD)2 + (BD)2 + (CD)2 + (BD)2
Substituting from (i), (AC)2 = (AD)2 + 2(BD)2 + (CD)2
So, the assertion is true.
Reason: The reason is true since (Hypotenus)2 = (Perpendicular)2 + (Base)2 according to the Pythagoras theorem.
The reason explains the assertion. So, both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A. Thus, the correct option is a.
2. Statement 1: ∠A = ∠D, ∠B = ∠E and AB = DE
Statement 2: BC = EF.
Statement 1 provides two pairs of equal angles (∠A = ∠D and ∠C = ∠D) and one pair of equal sides (AB = DE). This is sufficient for the ASA congruence criteria because the third pair of angles will be equal due to the angle sum property of triangles.
Therefore, Statement 1 alone is sufficient to conclude that ∆ABC ≅∆DEF.
Statement 2 provides only one pair of equal sides (BC = EF). This alone is not sufficient to conclude that the triangles are congruent since it does not provide enough information to satisfy any of the congruence criteria. Hence, Statement 2 is not sufficient. Thus, option a is correct.
Case Study
1. ACB = 30°
∠B = 90°
We know that the sum of interior angles in a triangle is 180°.
So,
∠ACB + ∠ABC + ∠CAB = 180°
30° + 90° + ∠CAB = 180°
∠CAB = 180° − 120°
∠CAB = 60°
Thus, the correct option is (C).
2. AB = 24 cm
AD = BD = 24 cm ÷ 2 = 12 cm
AC = 20 cm
ΔADC forms a right-angled triangle. Apply the Pythagoras theorem, AC2 = AD2 + CD2
202 = 122 + CD2
CD2 = 202 − 122
CD2 = 400 − 144
CD2 = 256 = 16 × 16
CD = 16 cm
Thus, the correct option is (C).
3. ACB = 70°
It is given that the blue triangle is an isosceles triangle. Apply the angle sum property in a triangle.
∠ABC + ∠BAC + ∠ACB = 180°
∠ABC + ∠ABC + 70° = 180°
2∠ABC = 110°
∠ABC = ∠BAC = 55°
Now,
∠ABD = ∠ABC + x°
90° = 55° + x°
x°=35°
Let us find the value of y°.
∠ACE = ∠BCE
∠ACB + ∠ACE + ∠BCE = 360°
70° + y° + y° = 360°
2y° = 290°
y° = 145°
Thus, x° + y° = 145° + 35° = 180°
4. Consider quadrilateral AFCG.
∠FCG = 90°
Now, 15° + 110° + 90° + ∠AFC = 360°
∠AFC = 360° − 215°
∠AFC = 145°
Now, ∠AFC + ∠AFE = 180°
∠AFE = 180° − ∠AFC = 180° − 145°
∠AFE = 35°
Consider ΔAEF.
∠EAF + ∠AEF + ∠AFE = 180°
∠EAF + 110° + 35° = 180°
∠EAF = 180° − 145°
∠EAF = 35°
Thus, ∠AFC = 145° and ∠EAF = 35°.

1. Rohan, Kunal, and Vicky's ages form a continued proportion, and Kunal is twice the age of Rohan [Given].
Let Rohan’s age = r and Kunal’s age = k
Since Kunal is twice Rohan's age k = 2r Vicky’s age = v
Since their ages form a continued proportion, we have: r k = k v r 2r = 2r v [Replacing k with 2r]
1 2 = 2r v v = 4r
So, Vicky 's age is four times Rohan's age, v must be a multiple of 4.
a. 15 years: 15 is not divisible by 4, so this cannot be Vicky's age.
b. 16 years: 16 is divisible by 4, so this can be Vicky's age.
c. 32 years: 32 is divisible by 4, so this can be Vicky's age.
d. 36 years: 36 is divisible by 4, so this can be Vicky's age.
Hence the correct option is a, 15 years.

11. Selling price of 17 balls = ₹720
According to question,
Loss incurred after selling 17 balls = Cost price of 5 balls
CP of 17 balls − SP of 17 balls = CP of 5 balls
CP of 12 balls = SP of 17 balls
CP of 12 balls = ₹720
CP of 1 ball = ₹720 12 = ₹60
Thus, the cost of each ball is ₹60.
12. Selling price of the article when there is profit = ₹1920
Selling price of the article when there is loss = ₹1280
Cost price (CP) is the same in both the cases.
If the profit% and the loss% is the same, then the profit and the loss on a same article will be the same.
Profit = Loss = ₹1920 − ₹1280 2 = ₹640 2 = ₹320
CP = ₹1280 + ₹320 = ₹1600

13. Total cost price of 56 kg rice = 26 × ₹20 + 30 × ₹36 = ₹520 + ₹1080 = ₹1600
Total selling price of 56 kg rice = 56 × ₹30 = ₹1680
Profit = ₹1680 − ₹1600 = ₹80
Thus, the trader’s profit is ₹80.
14. Cost of each bulb = ₹10
Cost of 200 such bulbs = 200 × ₹10 = ₹2000
Thus, dealer must sell the article at ₹1995 to gain 5% on that article.
Number of bulbs that were fused = 5
Bulbs left = 200 − 5 = 195
Selling price of each bulb = ₹12
Total selling price of 195 bulbs = 195 × ₹12 = ₹2340
SP > CP, so there is profit.
Profit% = 2340–2000 Profit 340 ×100%= ×100=×100=17% CP 2000 2000 2340–2000 Profit 340 ×100%= ×100=×100=17% CP 2000 2000

Challenge
1. Assertion (A): The vendor buys oranges at ₹26 per dozen and sells them at 5 for ₹13. The vendor's gain percent is 20%.
Reason (R): Gain percent = Gain Cost Price × 100%
CP = ₹26 per dozen = 26 12 = ₹13 6 per orange
SP: ₹13 for 5 oranges = 13 5 = ₹2.6 per orange
Gain = SP − CP = ₹2.6 − ₹13 6 = ₹13 30
Gain percent = gain ×100% CP = 13 30 13 6 × 100% = 20%
So, the gain percent is 20%.
So, the assertion is true.
The reason explains how to calculate the gain percentage. So, the reason is true and it explains the assertion. Thus, both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
Hence, option a is correct.

1. Since the interest rate is constant, we can use a simple proportion to solve this.
If the money triples in 15 years, it means the interest earned is twice the original principal (3P − P = 2P) in 15 years. To quadruple the money, we need to earn thrice the original principal (4P − P = 3P).
So, if it takes 15 years to earn 2P, it will take: 15 years 3 2 P P
× 3P = 22.5 years to earn 3P.
Therefore, it will take 22.5 years for the money to quadruple itself.

1. The ratio of seats for Mathematics, Physics and Biology in the school = 6:8:12
Let the seats for Mathematics, Physics and Biology be 6x, 8x and 12x, respectively.
Percentage increase in the number of seats for Mathematics = 40%
Increased seats for Mathematics = 6x + 40% × 6x = 6x + 2.4x = 8.4x
Percentage increase in the number of seats for Physics = 50%
Increased seats for Physics = 8x + 50% × 8x = 8x + 4x = 12x
Percentage increase in the number of seats for Biology = 75%
Increased seats for Biology = 12x + 75% × 12x = 12x + 9x = 21x
Ratio of increased seats for Mathematics, Physics and Biology in the school = 8.4x:12x:21x = 14:20:35
Thus, the ratio of the increased seats is 14:20:35.

1. Conclusion 1: The pizza was cut into 3 equal parts.
Conclusion 2: Maya got more pizza than Riya.
Conclusion 3: If Tia joins them, each of them will get 1 5 th of pizza.
Number of people = 3
Number of parts each ate = 1
Number of parts left = 0
Number of parts the pizza was cut in = 1 + 1 + 1 = 3
So, they cut the pizza in 3 equal parts, hence, Conclusion 1 follows.
Each ate equal amount of pizza, hence, Conclusion 2 does not follow.
If Tia joins them, number of people = 4, and the number of parts the pizza should be cut in = 4.
Hence, each will get 1 4 parts, hence, Conclusion 3 does not follow.

10. Answer may vary. Sample answer: Raj bought 14 9 m of cloth. He again bought 13 8 m of cloth. How much cloth does he have in total?
Challenge
1. Statement 1: He spent ₹630 9 on tea and snacks, ₹508 2 on food, ₹44 on repairs of the taxi and saved the rest.
Statement 2: The taxi driver spent 46% of his earnings.
To find out how much he saved, we need to subtract his total expenses from his earnings.
Earnings = ₹800
Total expenses = ₹ 630508220 925 ++
₹ 630 9
= ₹70; ₹ 508 2
= ₹254; ₹ 220 5 = ₹44
Total expenses = ₹(70 + 254 + 44) = ₹368
Savings = Earnings − Total expenses = ₹800 − ₹368 = ₹432
So, according to Statement 1, the taxi driver saved ₹432. Statement 2:
The taxi driver spent 46% of his earnings on various expenses.
To find out how much he saved, we can calculate the remaining percentage of his earnings, which represents his savings.
Remaining percentage = 100% − 46% = 54%
Savings = 54% of ₹800 = 220 5 54 100 220 5
× ₹800 = ₹432
So, according to Statement 2, the taxi driver saved ₹432. Hence, (IV) Either Statement 1 and Statement 2 alone are sufficient.

Challenge
1. Area of the rectangle = l × b
Length of the new rectangle = 3l
Breadth of the new rectangle = b 6
Area of the new rectangle = 3l × b 6 = l × b 2
So, the ratio of new rectangle to the old rectangle = lb 2 :lb = 1:2
2. Area of rectangle = area of square = 49 sq. cm
If the length is of maximum possible measure, then the length of rectangle must be at least 49 cm.
So, breadth of rectangle will be 1 cm such that its area is 49 sq. cm.
Perimeter of the rectangle = 2 (l + b)
= 2 (49 + 1) = 2 × 50 = 100 cm
If the side of the square is 7 cm, then the area of the square will be 49 sq. cm.
So, the side of the square = 7 cm
Perimeter of the square = 4 × side = 4 × 7 = 28 cm
Since, 100 > 28, the perimeter of the rectangle is greater than the perimeter of the square.

Width of living area = width of the living area = 22 m
So, option c is correct.
2. Area of the bathroom = l × b = 6 m × 8 m = 48 sq. m
So, option d is the correct answer.
3. Perimeter of living area = 2(16 m + 22 m)
= 2 × 38 m = 76 m
So, the perimeter of the living area is 76 m.
Thus, option c is correct.
4. Perimeter of the kitchen = 2(9 + 10) = 2 × 19 = 38 m
Perimeter of the dining area = 2(9 + 8) = 2 × 17 = 34 m
Total perimeter = 38 m + 34 m = 72 m
5. Area of the bathroom = l × b = 6 m × 8 m = 48 sq. m
Area of 1 tile = 4 sq. m
Number of tiles required = 48sq. m 4sq. m = 12
So, 12 tiles are required for bathroom.

1. Statement: P = 6a2 + 12ab + 3ab2; Q = 5ab – 8ab2; R = 15ab – 4a2 + 9
Conclusion I: 3Q = 15ab – 24ab2
Conclusion II: The value of P – R + 3Q = 10a2 + 12ab – 21ab2 – 9
According to question,
P = 6a2 + 12ab + 3ab2; Q = 5ab − 8ab2; R = 15ab − 4a2 + 9
Conclusion I:
3Q = 3 × (5ab − 8ab2 )
= 15ab − 24ab2 = RHS
So, conclusion 1 follows.
Conclusion II:
P − R + 3Q = (6a2 + 12ab + 3ab2) − (5ab − 8ab2) + (15ab − 24ab2)
P − R + 3Q = (6a2 + 12ab + 3ab2) − (15ab − 4a2 + 9) + (15ab − 24ab2)
= (6a2 + 4a2) + (12ab − 15ab + 15ab) + (3ab2 − 24ab2) − 9
= 10a2 + 12ab − 21ab2 − 9
So, Conclusion II follows.
Thus, both the conclusions follows.
Hence, option c is the correct answer.

= 8x2 + 26xy − 12y2
(3 − b) x2 + (14 + 12)xy − (a + 3) y2
= 8x2 + 26xy − 12y2
Let us compare the LHS and RHS to find the values of a and b

Now, a + 3 = 12
a = 9
Thus, a = 9 and b = −5.
2. Statement 1: x = 2 3 y
Simplifying the statement,
3x = 2y
3x − 2y = 0
Thus, statement 1 alone is sufficient to answer the given question.
Statement 2: y = 6
This does not tells us whether 3x − 2y = 0 or since there is no expression of x here.
Thus, statement 2 alone is not sufficient to answer the question.
Hence, option a is the correct answer.

So, Statement 1 is not true while Statement 2 is true.
Thus, option b is correct.
2. Statement 1: (−48)−1 when divided by an even number leaves an even remainder.
Since (−48) is an even number, we are given that dividing (−48)−1 by an even number leaves an even remainder. This statement alone does not specify the value of b, only that b is an even number.
Statement 2: (−48)−1 when divided by b results in (−6)−1
According to the given statement, (−48)−1 ÷ b = (−6)−1, this gives us the value of b.
So, this statement alone is sufficient to find the value of b
Thus, option b is correct.

Challenge
1. If a cylindrical pipe is cut along the base horizontally, we get a rectangle.
Then, the length of the rectangle = length of the cylindrical pipe = 3 m = 3 × 100 cm = 300 cm
Breadth of the rectangle = diameter of the cylinder = 2 × radius = 2 × 7 cm = 14 cm
Area of the rectangle = length × breadth = 300 cm × 14 cm
= 4200 square cm2
So, the cross-sectional are of the cylinder will be 4200 cm2
