ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS
1. There are 500 students in a school. For the sports day display they have
to arrange themselves so as to have number of rows equal to number of
columns. How many children would be left out in this arrangement?
Ans: since number of rows should be equal to number of column rows xxx 500
x2 = 500
22 row and column are possible
22 x 22 = 484 students can perform the drill.
Remaining students 500-484 = 16students
2. Students of class IX wanted to rise the bund to help the needy student of
their school. Each student donated as many rupees as the number of
students in the class and the amount collected was 6044 find the number
of students.
3. Find the smallest square number that is divisible by each of the number,
8, 15 and 20.
120 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5
22
So to make it perfect square we have to multiply by 2 x 3 x 5
Then
22
32
52
= 3600
3600 is a perfect number that is divisible by 8, 15, and 20.

EXERCISE 3.1.5

(i)
(b + c) (b c) + a (a + 2b) = 0
Given a + b + c = 0 the a + b = -c, b + c = -a, c + a = -b we have
L.H.S = (b + c) (b c) + a (a + 2b)
= (-a) (b c) + a (a + b + b)
= -ab + ac + a (-c + b)
= -ab + ab - ac + ac
= 0 = R.H.S

2a2 + bc = (a b) (a c)
L.H.S = 2a2 + bc
= a2 + a2 + bc
= a2 + a x a + bc
= a2 + a (- b c) + bc
= a2 ab ac + bc
= a (a b) c (a - b)
= (a b) (a c) = R.H.S
(3)
(vii) (a + b) (a b) + ca - cb = 0
We have
a+b+c=0
a+b=c
L.H.S = (a + b) (a b) + ac cb
= c (a b) + ac cd
= ca + bc + ac cb
= 0 = R.H.S
a+b+c=0
Squaring we get
(a + b + c)2 = 0
a2 + b2 + c 2 + 2ab + 2bc +2ca = 0
a2 + b2 + c 2 = 2ab 2bc 2ca
a2 + b2 + c 2 = 2(ab + bc + ca)

Cubing we get

a3 + b3 + 3ab + (a + b) = c3
a3 + b3 3ab = c 3

7. The angles of a convex polygon are in the ratio 2 : 3 : 5 : 9 :11. Find the
measure of each angle.
Solution:
Ratio of the angle = 2 : 3 : 5 : 9 :11.
Let the angle be 2x, 3x, 5x, 9x and 11x.
The polygon has five angles and therefore five sides.
Sum of angle = (2n - 4)90
= (2 x 5 4)90
= (10 4)90
= 6 x 90
2x + 3x + 5x + 9x +11x = 6 x 90
30x = 6 x 90

2. In a heptagon, two of the angles 130 each and the remaining angles are
equal. Find the equal angles.
Solution:
A heptagon has 7 sides
Sum of interior angles = (2n 4)90
= (2 x 7 4)90
= (14 4) 90
= 10 x 90 = 900
Measure of two equal angles = 130 each their sum = 130 x 2 = 260
Sum of the remaining 5 equal angles = 900 260 = 640
Measure of each of the 5 angles =
640
5
= 128
3. A polygon has n sides two of its angles are right angles and each of the
remaining angles is 144 degrees find the value of n.
Solution:
Numbers of sides = n
Sum of two right angles = 90 x 2 = 180
Sum of the remaining (n - 2) angles,
Each equal to 144 = (n - 2)144
Sum of interior angles = (2n 4)90
= 180 + (n 2)144
180n - 360 = 180 + 144n 288
180n 144n = 180 + 360 288
36n = 540 288 = 252
n=
252

=7
4. Is there a polygon which has only two types of interior angles 120 and
60? If so how many sides such a polygon has?
[Hint: if n is the number of sides and if k angles are of 60 then (n k)
angles are of 120 and (n - 2) 180 = 60k + 120(n k)
Solution:
180n 360 = 60k + 120n 120k
180n 120k - 60k + 120k = 360
60n + 60k = 360
n+k=6
When k = 1 n = 5 and
When k = 2 n = 4
Thus the polygon can be quadrilateral with two 60angles and two 120
Angles. or a pentagon with one 60 angle and four 120 angles.
5. In the adjacent figure, the pentagon is such that AB = BC = CD and
AE = ED. Moreover ABC = BCD = AED = 130.
Find the measures of BAE and EDC

D

Solution:
Construction: Join AD.
ABC = BCD = 130
AB = CD
ABCD In an isosceles trapezium
ABC + BAD = 180
130 + BAD = 180
BAD = 180 130 = 50
ADC = BAD = 60
In
EAD, EA = ED
EAD = EDA

6. In the adjacent figure you have a star ABCDEFGHIKL. All the sides of
the star are equal. What is the measure of angles at the vertices A, C, E,
G and k?

Solution:
All
are isosceles.
x+ x + A + x + x + C + = 180 x 5 = 900
10x + A + C + E + G + K = 900
10x + 5y = 900
5(2x + y = 180)

9. In a convex polygon, sum of all the angles except one angle is 2280.
How many sides does the polygon have? What is the measure of this
exceptional angle?
[Hint: if x is the exceptional angle, then (n 2) 180 = 2280 + x, and
0 < x < 180]
Solution:
If the polygon has n sides, the
Sum of the interior angle = (n 2)
If the exceptional angle measures x
(n 2)180 = 2280 + x
2280 + x is a multiple of 180
120 + x = 180
Or x = 180 120 = 60
Thus (n 2)180 = 2280 + 60 = 2340
n -2 =
2340
180
= 13
n = 13 + 2 = 15
And the exceptional angle = 60
