MATHEMATICS
Master Mathematical Thinking
Grade 7
Mathematics is not just another subject. It is an integral part of our lives. It shapes the very foundation of our understanding, personality and interaction with the world around us.
However, due to the subject’s abstract nature, the stress of achieving high academic scores and complex teaching methods, most children develop a fear of mathematics from an early age. This fear not only hinders their mathematical thinking, logical reasoning and general problem solving abilities, but also negatively impacts their performance in other academic subjects. This creates a learning gap which widens over the years.
The NEP 2020 has distinctly recognised the value of mathematical thinking among young learners and the significance of fostering love for this subject by making its learning engaging and entertaining. Approaching maths with patience and relatable real-world examples can help nurture an inspiring relationship with the subject. 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 learning exciting, relatable and meaningful for children. This is achieved by making a clear connection between mathematical concepts and examples from daily life. This opens avenues for children to connect with and explore maths in pleasant, relatable, creative and fun ways.
This product, as recommended by the NEP 2020 and the recent NCF draft, gives paramount importance to the development of computational and mathematical thinking, logical reasoning, problem solving and mathematical communication, with the help of carefully curated content and learning activities.
Imagine Mathematics strongly 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 latest NCF Draft and other international educational policies. In this approach, while learning any new mathematical concept, learners first receive sufficient modelling, and then are supported to solve problems in a guided manner before eventually taking complete control of the learning and application of the concept on their own. 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 exercises among other things. Interactive exercises on the digital platform make learning experiential and help in concrete visualisation of abstract mathematical concepts.
In Imagine Mathematics, we are striving to make high quality maths learning available for all children across the country. The product maximises the opportunities for self-learning while minimising the need for paid external interventions, like after-school or private tutorial classes.
The book adapts some of the most-acclaimed, learner-friendly pedagogical strategies. Each concept in every chapter is introduced with the help of real-life situations and integrated with children’s experiences, making learning flow seamlessly from abstract to concrete. Clear explanations and simple steps are provided to solve problems in each concept. Interesting facts, error alerts and enjoyable activities are smartly sprinkled throughout the content to break the monotony and make learning holistic. Most importantly, concepts are not presented in a disconnected fashion, but are interlinked and interwoven in a sophisticated manner across strands and grades to make learning scaffolded, comprehensive and meaningful.
As we know, no single content book can resolve all learning challenges, and human intervention and support tools are required to ensure its success. Thus, Imagine Mathematics not only offers the content books, but also comes with teacher manuals that guide the pedagogical transactions that happen in the classroom; and a vast parallel digital world with lots of exciting materials for learning, practice and assessment. In a nutshell, Imagine Mathematics is a comprehensive and unique learning experience for children.
On this note, we welcome you to the wonderful world of Imagine Mathematics. In the pages that follow, we will embark on a thrilling journey to discover wonderful secrets of mathematics—numbers, operations, geometry and measurements, data and probability, patterns and symmetry, algebra and so on and so forth. Wishing all the learners, teachers and parents lots of fun-filled learning as you embark upon this exciting journey with Uolo.

Chapter: Measures of Central Tendency
Learning Outcomes
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.
Imagine Maths Page 46
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 the students to put the marbles according to the data set in different paper cups. Ask the students 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 the students to divide the total number of marbles by the number of cups used. 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.
Extension Idea
Ask: The mean of 4, 22, 12, 7, x and 13 is 11. What is the value of x?
Say: Mean = 4 + 22 + 12 + 7 + x + 13 6 = 58 + x 6 . 11 = 58 + x 6 . So, x = 66 − 58 = 8.
Mode
Learning Outcomes
Students will be able to find the mode of a given set of data.
Teaching Aids
Number cards (1–10)
Activity
Begin the class by explaining the concept of mode and its use.
Imagine Maths Page 51
Lead the students to the playground and mark spots on the ground from 1 to 10, spaced far apart. Create number cards from 1 to 10 with repeating numbers (ensuring there are more cards than the total number of students). Place these cards in a box and have the students pick a card each. Then, instruct them to stand on the spot matching the number on their card.
Explain to the students that the spot with the most students is the mode.
Collect the cards and return them to the box. Shuffle the cards and repeat the activity a few more times. Have students record the results in their notebooks each time.
Engage the students in a discussion about their findings. Ask them to articulate why they think a particular number card appears more frequently and how this relates to finding the mode.
Extension Idea
Ask: The runs scored by a cricketer are: 120, 24, 48, 64, x, 29, 71, 3, 64, 29. If the mode is 64, then find the value of x.
Say: Since 29 and 64 both occur twice and the mode is 64, then x must be equal to 64.
Median Imagine Maths Page 55
Learning Outcomes
Students will be able to find the median of a given set of data.
Teaching Aids
Building blocks (different colours)
Activity
Begin the class by explaining the concept of a median and its use.
Instruct the 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 the students to use the building blocks to build towers. Ask the students to note down the number of blocks used for each colour in their notebooks. 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 the 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.

Divide the class into groups. Distribute a separate word problem card to each group.
An example of a word problem card could be: A supervisor is examining the heights of doors manufactured in the factory. The heights of the doors (in centimetres) are as follows: 215, 230, 190, 240, 200, 225, 180, 210. Which measure of central tendency should the supervisor use, and which measure should he avoid using?
Distribute the table cards to the students.
Observations:
Observations in ascending order: _______________________________
Total number of observations: __________
Instruct the students to read the problem carefully and determine which measure of central tendency will be the most appropriate.
Ask questions like: Which measure of central tendency is most affected by extreme observations at both ends of a data set?
Finally, reveal all the correct answers and discuss why a particular measure of central tendency was appropriate for the given problem.
Answers
1. Mean of Ungrouped Data
Think and Tell
No, the mean of a dataset cannot be more than the highest value in the data set as it represents the average value of the data set.
Do It Together
Step 1
Find the first five prime numbers.
2, 3, 5, 7, 11
Step 3
Find the mean.
Mean = 28 5 = 5.6
Step 2
Find their sum.
2 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 11 = 28
4. Mode of Grouped Data
Do It Together
Can the missing number be 5? No, because then the mode(s) will be 8 and 6.
Can the missing number be 6? No, because then the mode(s) will be 6.
Can the missing number be 7? No, because then the mode(s) will be 8 and 6.
Can the missing number be 8? Yes, because then the mode will be 8.
5. Median
Think and Tell
Thus, the mean of the first five prime numbers is 5.6.
2. Mean of Grouped Data
Do It Together
Step 1
Let us find f and ( f × x).
Step 2
Mean = ( f × x) f = 170 30 = 5.67
Thus, the arithmetic mean or the average marks of the students is 5.67.
3. Mode of Ungrouped Data
Do It Together
Step 1
Arrange the observations in ascending order.
₹120, ₹120, ₹120, ₹130, ₹130, ₹130, ₹135, ₹140, ₹200, ₹250
Step 2
Find the observation that occurs most frequently.
The observation(s) ₹120 and ₹130 occur(s) three times each.
Thus, the mode(s) of the data is/are ₹120 and ₹130
No, it is not necessary that the median will always be present in the data because if the number of observations is even, then the median will be the average of the middle two values, which is not necessarily the value present in the data.
Do It Together
Step 1
Arrange the heights (in cm) in ascending order.
148, 154, 160, 162, 164, 169, 171
Step 2
Find the total number of observations.
The total number of observations = 7, which is an odd (odd/even) number.
Step 3
Note the middle observation(s) as 4th using the formulae. The median height is 162 cm.

Begin the class by discussing where the students see parallel lines in their real life. Discuss that the lines made for effective parking in parking lots are parallel and the line joining them is their transversal.
Instruct the students to work in groups. Distribute blank sheets, rulers, and protractors among the groups.
Ask the groups to draw parallel lines using the edges of the ruler. Ask them to then draw a line intersecting both the parallel lines at any angle other than a right angle. Instruct the groups to measure all the angles formed by the transversal on the parallel lines using the protractor and write the measures.
Instruct them to have a discussion around what they notice about the angles so formed. Discuss the angles that are of the same measure when a pair of parallel lines are intersected by a transversal.
Give them a problem on parallel lines and transversals on the board where 1–2 angles measures are given and students need to find the remaining angles.

Ask the students to create a parallel parking space on the chart paper by constructing parallel lines for at least 6 cars, making sure that the distance between the lines is enough to fit each car cutout. Instruct them to open page 127 of their Imagine Mathematics books and look at the steps of construction of parallel lines. Ask them to use the steps and create parallel lines on the chart paper given. Ensure that each student gets to construct at least one line parallel to another line. Ask them to use coloured pencils to make the parking space colourful. Ask them to stick the car cutouts on the parking spaces created.
Encourage groups to show their creativity to the class.
Extension Idea
Ask: If the angle formed by the lines in the parking lot is 90 degrees, what would you notice about the cars parked?
Say: If the altitudes of two right-angled triangles are parallel to each other and the bases form a transversal to the parallel lines, then the corresponding angles formed by the bases and the transversal will be equal.

Activity
Instruct students to form groups. Distribute cutouts of equilateral, isosceles, scalene, acute, right and obtuse triangles, giving 1 of each type to each group. Instruct the students to fold the triangle such that the crease joins the vertex to the centre point of the opposite side. Discuss what a median is.

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 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,
1 + 2 + 3 = 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
The sum of all the angles of a triangle is 180°.
Therefore, PQR + QPR + PRQ = 180°
Substituting 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
Step 1
Using the triangle inequality property, the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side.
Side 1 + Side 2 > Side 3.
The third side will be smaller than the sum of the two sides.
Substituting the values of the sides of the triangle, finding the sum of the two sides,
Side 1 + Side 2 = 4 cm + 12 cm = 16 cm.
Step 2
We also know that the difference of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is less than the length of the third side. Finding the difference of the two sides,
Side 1 – Side 2 = 12 cm − 4 cm = 8 cm
The length of the third side cannot be smaller than the difference of the two sides.
Therefore, the possible length of the third side of the triangle is between 8 cm and 16 cm.
5. The Pythagoras Theorem
Think and Tell
In a right-angled triangle ABC, if AB2 = AC2 + BC2, then the right angle is angle ACB.
Do It Together
Step 1
Draw the figure and label the vertices to show the rightangled triangle.
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
Step 2
In a right-angled triangle AEC, we have, AC2 = CE2 + AE2
Substituting the values, AC2 = 82 + 62 = 64 + 36 = 100 = 10 × 10. So, AC = 10 m
The distance between the tops of the two poles is 10 m.

Instruct each student to paste one strip on the sheet of paper and then paste the other strip at one end of the previous strip such that they form an angle of 60°. Let them use a protractor to measure the angle. Then, guide them to draw a line on the sheet to complete the triangle. Ask them to write the measures inside the triangle. They will then cut out their triangles and superimpose them on their partner’s triangle to check if they overlap completely. Then, they will measure the length of each side and prove the congruence in their notebooks.

Instruct the 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 two angles of a triangle are 45° and 60°. The angles of another triangle measure 45° and 75°. If these two triangles have one side measuring 13 cm, are they both congruent using the ASA rule?
Say: 180° – 45° + 60° = 75°. Although the three 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.

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 two 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.

Activity
Begin the lesson by introducing the concept of rational numbers and their representation.
Instruct the 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.
Ask students to explain why certain numbers were placed where they were on the number line. Address any misconceptions or questions that arise.

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 two 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.

Learning Outcomes
Students will be able to find the perimeter and area of squares and rectangles using the formula.
Teaching Aids
A4 sheets of paper; Square and rectangle cutouts of different areas with names of places written (like swimming pool, park, apartments, office complex); Ruler; Glue stick
Activity
Divide the class into groups of 4.
Tell the students that today they will calculate the area of a residential complex.
Distribute an A4 sheet of paper and the square and rectangle cutouts of different areas with names of places written (like swimming pool, park, apartments and office complex) among the groups.
Instruct the students to place and stick the square and rectangular cutouts on the A4 sheets of paper to show a layout of a residential complex. Make sure that the sizes of the sheets and the cutouts given to the groups, are the same.
Instruct the students to measure the lengths of the sides of the shapes and find the area occupied by the park, the swimming pool, the office complex and the apartments, keeping in mind that 1 cm on paper will be equal to 5 m on the actual ground. They will also find the area of the remaining land by subtracting the area of the buildings from the area of the complete residential complex, which is the A4 sheet of paper.
Discuss the answers in class.
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
= 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.

Say: Area of the rectangle = 4 × 3 = 12 sq. m. Area of a parallelogram = b × h or 2 × h. The area of the rug is less than half of the area of the rectangular floor. So, area of the rug < 6 or 2h < 6. That is, h < 3. So, the height of the rug can be a maximum of 3 m.

Now, they should cut the circle into smaller sectors, rearrange them in the form of a rectangle by placing the sectors alternately so that they get a perfect looking rectangle. Then ask them to use the formula for the area of a rectangle to find the area where the length of the rectangle is the same as the circumference of the circle and the breadth of the rectangle is the radius of the circle. Now, ask them to deduce the formula for the area of a circle.

Extension Idea
Ask: A circular pizza with a diameter of 24 cm is cut into 16 equal slices. You rearrange the slices to form a larger rectangle. What is the length of the rectangle? (Use π 3.14)
Say: When a circular pizza is cut into 16 equal slices and rearranged to form a rectangle, each slice becomes a triangular piece. The rectangle formed will have a length equal to half the circumference of the original circle (pizza). So, the length of the rectangle = 1 2 × 3.14 × 24 cm = 37.68 = 38 cm (roughly).

1. Perimeter and Area of Squares and Rectangles
Do It Together
Size of 1 tile to be cut = 12.5 cm × 10 cm
Area of 1 tile to be cut = 125 sq. cm
Size of tile to be used for cutting = 102 cm × 65 cm
Area of tile to be used for cutting = 6630 sq. cm
Number of tiles = 6630 ÷ 125 = 53
So, 53 tiles are required to be cut from the tile of size 102 cm × 65 cm.
2. Area of Parallelograms
Think and Tell
Yes. By counting the number of squares, the area of the parallelogram = area of full squares + area of half squares =
Number of full squares + 1 2 × number of half squares = 24 + 1 2 × 8 = 24 + 4 = 28 sq. units

So, the area of the parallelogram = ST × VE
400 sq. cm = 40 cm × VE
VE = 400 40 cm = 10 cm
3. Area of Triangles
Think and Tell
Yes. Such triangles are called congruent triangles.
Think and Tell
If the park is in the shape of the square, then the area of the square park = 2 × area of the triangles = 2 × 1 2 × b × h = b × h = 60 × 60 = 3600 sq. m

So, area of square = 12 × 12 = 144 sq. m
Area of triangle = 1 2 × 144 = 72 sq. m
4. Circumference of Circles
Do It Together
So, the perimeter of the square = 4s = 4 × 66 cm = 264 cm
Circumference of the circle = 264 cm
264 = 2 × 3.14 × r
r = 264 2 × 3.14 = 264 6.28 cm
r = 42.04 cm
Cost of 1 cm of wire = ₹4
Cost of 264 cm of wire = ₹4 × 264 = ₹1056
5. Area of Circles, Semicircles and Quadrants
Do It Together
So, Perimeter of the square = 4 × 15 cm = 60 cm
Perimeter of the circle = 60 cm
2 × 22 7 × r = 60 cm
r = 60 × 7 2 × 22 = 9.55 cm
Area of the circle = 22 7 × 9.55 × 9.55 = 286.64 sq. cm
6. Combined Shapes
Think and Tell
Circles with the same centre and different radii are called concentric circles. They are found at the cross-section of pipes, wires and rings, etc.

Area of road 1 = 150 × 2 = 300 sq. m
Area of road 2 = 150 × 2 = 300 sq. m
Area of the common square = 2 × 2 = 4 sq. m
Area of the roads = Area of road 1 + Area of road 2 – Area of the common square
= 300 + 300 – 4 = 596 sq. m
Cost of constructing 1 sq. m of road = ₹520
Cost of constructing 596 sq. m = ₹520 × 596 = ₹3,09,920

Question cards to represent numbers in the exponential form
Activity
Begin with a brief discussion on prime factors of a number. Make question cards to represent numbers in the exponential form.
Instruct the students to work in groups. Distribute question cards with some numbers such as 384, 70, 120 etc. among the groups.
Ask them to write the prime factors of the first number in the prime factorisation column.
Instruct the groups to count and write the prime numbers that are multiplied and the number of times each prime number is multiplied, in respective columns. Tell them that in exponential form, 384 is written as 27 × 31. Ask the students what rule they noticed in the exponential representation. Bring out the fact that the exponent indicates how many times the base (the prime factor) is multiplied by itself.
Ask them to solve the remaining questions using the same approach. Run a quiz around the class to give more practice on the concept with a variety of questions.
Extension Idea
Ask: Which is greater, 23 × 5 or 22 × 52?
Say: 23 × 5 = 40 and 22 × 52 = 100. 100 > 40, therefore, 22 × 52 is greater.

Begin by explaining the laws of exponents to the class.
Divide the class into 3 groups. Provide each group with a set of cards with exponential expressions, with each set having problems on multiplication, division, and having powers of a power. Instruct the students that one member from each group will come up to the board to simplify an expression following and listing the correct exponent laws. Once one team member is done, he/she will go back to his/her seat, and the next member will come up with a different question card to solve it. The team members continue until all expressions are simplified or all members get a chance. The team that solves the most expressions correctly, wins. Conduct the activity such that the decorum of the class is maintained. Discuss their approaches in the class and encourage them to write the solutions in their notebooks.
Extension Idea
Ask: What is the error in the RHS of this equation: (56 × 52) = 258?

1E 1. Let’s say there are x number of people at the restaurant.
Number of males at the restaurant = 3 7 x
Number of females at the restaurant = x − 3 7 x = 4 7 x
Difference between the number of females and the number of males = 28
4 7 x –3 7 x = 1 7 x = 28
x = 28 × 7 = 196
Number of females = 4 7 × 196 = 112
Thus, there are 112 females at the restaurant.
2. Let the total number of shirts be x
Number of printed shirts = 1 3 x
Number of remaining shirts = x –1 3 x = 2 3 x
Number of striped shirts = 1 4 × 2 3 x = 1 6 x
Number of plain shirts = x –1 3 x –1
1 2 x = 96 x = 192
Thus, there are 192 shirts in total.
3. Total number of players = 72

Fraction of money left = 1 – 17 20 = 20 20 –17 20 = 3 20
Money left with Rakul = ₹3000
3 20 of total money = ₹3000
Total money with Rakul = 20 3 × ₹3000 = ₹20,000
Thus, Rakul had ₹20,000 initially.
6. Rate of leakage for the first hole = 1 4 gallons per half an hour
Leakage by first hole per hour = 1 4 ÷ 1 2 = 1 4 × 2 = 1 2 gallons
Rate of leakage for the second hole = 1 5 gallons per quarter of an hour
Leakage by second hole per hour = 1 5 ÷ 1 4 = 1 5 × 4 = 4 5 gallons
Total leakage by 2 holes per hour = 1 2 + 4 5 = 5 10 + 8 10 = 13 10 gallons
Total capacity of the cistern = 500 gallons
Time required to empty the complete cistern = 500 ÷ 13 10
= 500 × 10 13 = 5000 13 = 384 8 13 hours
Thus, the two holes will take 384 8 13 hours to empty the cistern.

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 ℃.

Weight of packet p = 1 1 2 + q
Weight of packet r = 2 1 2 + q
As per the given condition, q + 1 1 2 + q + 2 1 2 + q = 32
3q + 4 = 32
On transposing 4 from LHS to RHS, the operation changes from addition to subtraction
3q = 32 – 4 3q = 28
On transposing 3 from LHS to RHS, the operation changes from multiplication to division
q = 28 3 = 9 1 3
p = 1 1 2 + 9 1 3 = 3 2 + 28 3 = 65 6 = 10 5 6 kg
r = 2 1 2 + 9 1 3 = 5 2 + 28 3 = 71 6 = 11 5 6 kg
The weights of the packets are 9 1 3 kg, 10 5 6 kg, and 11 5 6 kg respectively.
2. Let the price of a textbook be x
Price of a notebook = x + 10
As per the given situation, 2 × (x + 10) + 3x = 120. 2x + 20 + 3x = 120 5x + 20 = 120
On transposing 20 from LHS to RHS, the operation changes from addition to subtraction.
5x = 120 – 20 5x = 100
On transposing 5 from LHS to RHS, the operation changes from multiplication to division.
x = 100 5 x = 20
So, the price of a textbook is ₹20.
Price of a notebook = x + 10 = 20 + 10 = ₹30.
3. Let the number toffees with Ramesh be x.
Number of toffees with his sister = 2x

4. Let the present age of the son be x; present age of the father = 30 + x 12 years hence,
Age of the son = x + 12
Age of the father = 30 + x + 12 = 42 + x
As per the given situation, 42 + x = 3(x + 12) 42 + x = 3x + 36
On transposing 36 from RHS to LHS, the operation changes from addition to subtraction.
42 + x – 36 = 3x x + 6 = 3x
On transposing x from LHS to RHS, the operation changes from addition to subtraction.
6 = 3x – x 6 = 2x
On transposing 2 from RHS to LHS, the operation changes from multiplication to division.
6 2 = x 3 = x OR x = 3
So, the present age of the son is 3 years.
Present age of the father = 30 + x = 30 + 3 = 33 years.

c. (x + 2)° + (3x + 3)° + (2x + 10)° = 180° (Angle sum property of a triangle)
6x + 15 = 180°
6x = 180° – 15° = 165°
x = 165°
6
d. x + y + 60° = 180°; (Angle sum property of a triangle)
y + 60° = 120° (Exterior angle sum property of a triangle)
Therefore, y = 120° – 60° = 60°
y = 60°
hence, x + 120° = 180°
x = 180° – 120° = 60°
x = 60°
e. x + y + y = 180° (Angle sum property of a triangle)
x + 2y = 180°—eq 1
Also, since 2y = 110°
Therefore y = 55°
Substituting the value of y, in—eq 1
x + 110° = 180°
x = 180° − 110°
x = 70°
f. Since the given triangle is an isosceles triangle, the angles opposite to the equal sides are equal.
Hence, x = 48° + 48° (Exterior angle property of a triangle)
x = 96°

150° + x = 180°
x = 180° – 150°
x = 30°
y + 90° = 120° (Exterior angle property of a triangle)
y = 120° – 90°
y = 30°
i. 2x + 3x = 150° (Exterior angle property of a triangle)
5x = 150°
x = 150°

x = 30°
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°
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. One angle of the triangle is 60°, and the difference between the two angles is 20°.
Let the remaining two angles be, x and x − 20°.
60° + x + (x − 20°) = 180° (angle sum property)
Solving for x:
2x – 20° = 120°
2x = 140°
x = 70°
Therefore, the remaining two angles are 70° and 50°.
The angles of the triangle are 60°, 70° and 50°.
5. 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°.
6. 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°.
7. 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°.
8. Given: The angles of a triangle are arranged in ascending order with a difference of 10° between consecutive angles.
Let the smallest angle be x
Then, the other two angles are x + 10° and x + 20°. Since the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180°.
x + (x + 10°) + (x + 20°) = 180°
Solving for x:
3x + 30° = 180°
3x = 150°, x = 50°
Therefore, the three angles are 50°, 60°, and 70°. The angles of the triangle are 50°, 60°, and 70°.

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°
Word Problem 1.
Given: QT is perpendicular to SU; PQT = TQR = x; RQS + PQU = 80°
Therefore, PQU = TQU − TQP
PQU = 90° – x°
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°.

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.

y = 180° – 104°
y = 72°
d. Using the exterior angle property of a triangle,

y = 180° − 130° = 50°
y = 50°

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.

482 + 142 = L2
2304 + 196 = L2
L2 = 2500 = 50 × 50
L = 50 cm

Therefore, the shortest length of the rope is 10 metres.
11. Given: Triangle ABC with

By angle sum property of in triangle ABC,
A + B +
C = 180°
Substituting the values, 80° + 60° + C = 180°
C = 180° − 140° = 40°
OBC = 40° (BO is the angle bisector)
OCB = 20° (CO is the angle bisector)
In triangle BOC,
OBC + OCB + BOC = 180°
40° + 20° + BOC = 180°
BOC = 180° − 60°
BOC = 120°
12. Since, ABC and CBP form a linear pair.
ABC + CBP = 180°
ABC +2 1 = 180° [BO is the bisector of CBP]
2 1 = 180° − ABC
1 = 90° − 1 2 ABC .....(1)
Again, ACB and QCB form a linear pair.
Therefore,
ACB + QCB = 180°
ACB + 2 2 = 180°
2 2 = 180° − ACB
2 = 90° − 1 2 ACB ...(2)
In triangle BOC, we have
1+ 2 + BOC = 180°
90° − 1 2 ABC + 90° − 1 2 ACB + BOC = 180°
180° − 1 2 ( ABC + ACB) + BOC = 180°
BOC = 1 2 ( ABC+ ACB)
BOC = 1 2 (180° − BAC)
BOC = 90° − 1 2 A (Hence proved)

4.2cm
And side AB of triangle ABC is produced to F.
CBF = C + A
CBF = 3 + 1 ...(iii)
Adding (i), (ii) and (iii), we get:
ACD + BAE + CBF = 2 ( 1 + 2 + 3)
= 2 × 180° = 360° = 4 × 90° = 4 right angles
4.2cm
Hence, the sum of the exterior angles so formed is equal to four right angles.

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

A = P + SI = ₹5500 + ₹5183.75 = ₹10,683.7
Word Problems 1. CP of the pen = ₹100
SP of the pen = ₹125
Since, SP > CP, so there is gain.
Gain = ₹125 – ₹100 = ₹25
Gain% = Gain25100%100%25%
CP 100
Thus, the gain percent is 25%.
2. Total amount spent by cobbler = ₹80 + ₹10 + ₹10 = ₹100
CP for the cobbler = ₹100
SP of each pair of shoes = ₹180
SP > CP, so there is profit.
Profit = ₹180 – ₹100 = ₹80
Profit% = Profit80100%100%80% CP 100
Thus, the cobbler makes a profit of 80% on each pair of shoes.

4. Total number of students in the school = 480
Ratio of boys to girls = 7:8
a. Percentage of boys in the school = 772 100%100%46%
7815 3
Thus, there are 2 46% 3 of the boys in the school.
b. Percentage of girls in the school = 81100%53% 783
Thus, there are 1 53% 3 of the girls in the school.
5. Let the third number be a.
First number = 20% more than a = a + 20% × a = a + 0.2a = 1.2a
Second number = 50% more than a = a + 50% × a = a + 0.5a = 1.5a
Ratio of first two numbers = 1.2a:1.5a = 4:5
Thus, the ratio of first two numbers is 4:5.
6. The ratio of the number of boys and girls in a college = 5:6
Let the number of boys and girls be 5x and 6x respectively.
Percentage increase in the number of boys = 40%
Increased number of boys in the school = 5x + 40% × 5x = 5x
+ 2x = 7x
Percentage increase in the number of girls = 50%
Increased number of girls in the school = 6x + 50% × 6x = 6x +
3x = 9x
New ratio of the number of boys to girls = 7x:9x = 7:9
Thus, the new ratio of the number of boys to the number of girls is 7:9.
7. Percentage of the expenditure by Kapil out of his total income = 20%
Percentage increase in the salary = 20%
Let the initial income of Kapil be 100.
Savings by Kapil initially = Income – Expenditure = 100 – 20% of 100 = 100 – 20 = 80
Increased income of Kapil = 100 + 20% of 100 = 100 + 20 = 120
Since the savings remain the same, so, savings for increased income = 80
Expenditure in increased salary = 120 – 80 = 40
Percentage increased in the expenditure =

Thus, the expenditure increased by 100%.
8. Cost of each shirt = ₹250
Tax on each shirt = ₹1.2
Total cost for each shirt = ₹250 + ₹1.2 = ₹251.2
Cost of 150 shirts = 150 × ₹251.2 = ₹37,680
Cost of transportation = ₹1500
Labour charges = ₹500
Total cost price for the shirts = ₹37,680 + ₹1500 + ₹500 = ₹39,680
Profit% for the shirts = 30%
Total selling price for the shirts = CP + Profit = ₹39,680 + 30% of ₹39,680 = ₹39,680 + ₹11,904 = ₹51,584
Selling price of each shirt = ₹51,584 ÷ 150 = 67 343 75 `
Thus, Jon should sell each shirt at 67 343 75 ` to earn a profit of 30%.
9. Discount% = 12%

13. 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.
14. Percentage decrease in the value of television each year = 10%
Initial cost of the television = ₹1,60,000
Value of the television after 1 year = 1,60,000 – 10% of 160,000 = 1,60,000 – 16,000 = ₹1,44,000
Value of the television after 2 years = 1,44,000 – 10% of 1,44,000 = 1,44,000 – 14,400 = ₹1,29,600
Thus, the cost of television after 2 years is ₹1,29,600.
15. Let the MP of the product be 100.
CP for the wholesaler = 100 – 40% of 100 = 100 – 40 = 60
SP for the wholesaler = 100

Area of square = side × side = 13 × 13 = 169 sq. m
e. Perimeter of square = 4 × side = 108 m, side = 108 ÷ 4 = 27 m
Area of square = side × side = 27 × 27 = 729 sq. m
3. a. P = 10 cm, L = 2 cm
B = P 2 – L = 10 2 – 2 = 5 – 2 = 3 cm
Area = L × B = 2 × 3 = 6 sq. cm
b. P = 18 cm, L = 5 cm
B = P 2 – L = 18 2 – 5 = 9 – 5 = 4 cm
Area = L × B = 5 × 4 = 20 sq. cm
c. P = 48 cm, L = 21 cm
B = P 2 – L = 48 2 – 21 = 24 – 21 = 3 cm
Area = L × B = 21 × 3 = 63 sq. cm
d. P = 94 m, L = 38 m
B = P 2 – L = 94 2 – 38 = 47 – 38 = 9 m
Area = L × B = 38 × 9 = 342 sq. m
4. Perimeter of a square = 4 × side = 4 × 15 m = 60 m
Perimeter of rectangle = perimeter of square = 60 m
Length of rectangle = 18 m
Breadth of rectangle = Perimeter 2 – Length = 60 2 – 18 = 30 – 18 = 12 m
5. Perimeter of a square: area of a square = 5:8
Perimeter of square = 4 × side, Area of square = side × side
So, 4 × side side × side = 5 8 4 side = 5 8 4 × 8 = 5 × side.
Side = 4 × 8 5 = 32 5 = 6.4
Area of square = 6.4 × 6.4 = 40.96 sq. units
6. 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 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, perimeter of rectangle is greater than the perimeter of the square.
7. Perimeter of rectangle: area of rectangle = 5:3
Perimeter of rectangle = 2 (l + b)
Area of rectangle = length × breadth
So, 2 (l + b) l × b = 5 3
6(l + b) = 5(l × b)
Let the length of the rectangle be 2x and the breadth of the rectangle be 3x
Therefore, 6(2x + 3x) = 5 (2x × 3x)
6 × 5x = 5 × 6x2
30x = 30x2

Word Problems 1. Cost of fencing a square field = perimeter of square × ₹12/m = ₹24,000
Perimeter of square = ₹24,000 ÷ ₹12 = 2000 m
4 × side = 2000 m. So, side = 2000 m ÷ 4 = 500 m
Area = side × side = 500 m × 500 m = 2,50,000 sq. m
2. Length of the playground = 750 m
Breadth of the playground = 250 m
a. Area of the playground = length × breadth = 750 × 250 = 1,87,500 sq. m
Cost of levelling per 100 sq. m = ₹16
Cost of levelling per sq. m = ₹ 16 100 × 1,87,500 = ₹30,000
b. Perimeter of playground = 2 (l + b) = 2 (750 + 250) = 2 × 1000 = 2000 m = 2 km
Total distance travelled of the playground = 6 km
Number of rounds = 6 km ÷ 2 km = 3
So, 3 rounds will be taken to run 6 km on the playground.
3. Let the length of the rectangular field be 3x and the breadth of the rectangular field be 2x
Perimeter of the rectangular field = 2 (l + b) = 2 (3x + 2x) = 2 ×
5x = 10x
Given, perimeter of the rectangular field = 320 m
So, 10x = 320 m
x = 320 ÷ 10 = 32 m
Therefore, L = 3 × 32 = 96 m, B = 2 × 32 = 64 m
Area = L × B = 96 × 64 = 6144 sq. m
Cost of reaping the field per 50 sq. m = ₹25
Cost of reaping the field per sq. m = ₹ 25 50 × 6144 = ₹3072
4. B = 3 × L, A = 1083 sq. m
L × B = 1083 sq. m
L × 3 × L = 1083 sq. m
L × L = 1083 ÷ 3 = 361 = 19 × 19. So, L = 19 m
L = 19 m, B = 3 × L = 3 × 19 = 57 m
P = 2 (L + B) = 2 (19 + 57) = 2 × 76 = 152 m
Cost of fencing = ₹25 × 152 = ₹3800
5. Side of the square = 21 cm.
Perimeter of the square = 4 × side = 4 × 21 = 84 cm.

According to the question,
Perimeter of the rectangle = perimeter of the square = 84 cm
2 (l + b) = 84 cm
2 (3x + 4x) = 84
2 × 7x = 84
14x = 84. So, x = 84 14 = 6
length = 3x = 3 × 6 = 18 cm
breadth = 4x = 4 × 6 = 24 cm
Area of square = side × side = 21 × 21 = 441 sq. cm
Area of rectangle = length × breadth = 18 cm × 24 cm = 432 sq. cm
Since, 441 > 432, square encloses more area.
