Question 3 Report
If the hypotenuse of a right-angle isosceles triangle is 2, what is the length of each of the other side?
Answer Details
In a right-angle isosceles triangle, the two legs are congruent to each other. Let x be the length of each leg. By the Pythagorean theorem, we know that: x² + x² = 2² Simplifying the equation gives: 2x² = 4 Dividing both sides by 2, we have: x² = 2 Taking the square root of both sides gives: x = √2 Therefore, the length of each leg is √2, which is approximately 1.41. So, the correct answer is not in the options given, but it is approximately equal to, √2.

Expand (2x - 5)(x - 3)
Answer Details
To expand the expression (2x - 5)(x - 3), we need to apply the distributive property, which states that the product of a sum (or difference) and a term is equal to the sum (or difference) of the products of each term with the given term. So, we start by multiplying the first term of the first factor, 2x, by each term of the second factor, x and -3, and then do the same for the second term of the first factor, -5: (2x)(x) + (2x)(-3) + (-5)(x) + (-5)(-3) Simplifying this expression by multiplying and adding the terms, we get: 2x2 - 6x - 5x + 15 Combining like terms, we have: 2x2 - 11x + 15 Therefore, the correct answer is 2x2 - 11x + 15.

Two angles (a + 31) and (b - 49o) are adjacent angles on a straight line. Which of the following is true
Answer Details
We are given that the angles (a + 31) and (b - 49) are adjacent angles on a straight line. When two adjacent angles form a straight line, they add up to 180 degrees. This is known as the straight angle theorem. Therefore, we can write: (a + 31) + (b - 49) = 180 Simplifying the expression, we get: a + b - 18 = 180 Adding 18 to both sides, we get: a + b = 198 Therefore, the sum of the angles a and b is 198 degrees. Hence, the answer is: a + b = 198°.
Question 13 Report
A boy measured the length and breath of a rectangular lawn as 59.6m and 40.3m respectively instead of 60m and 40m. What is the percentage error in his calculation of the perimeter of the lawn?
Answer Details
The correct perimeter of the rectangular lawn can be calculated by adding twice the length and twice the breadth, i.e., 2 × length + 2 × breadth = 2 × 60m + 2 × 40m = 120m + 80m = 200m The perimeter calculated by the boy would be: 2 × 59.6m + 2 × 40.3m = 119.2m + 80.6m = 199.8m The difference between the correct perimeter and the calculated perimeter is: 200m - 199.8m = 0.2m To find the percentage error, we divide the difference by the correct perimeter and multiply by 100: (0.2m / 200m) × 100% = 0.1% Therefore, the percentage error in the boy's calculation of the perimeter of the lawn is 0.1%. The correct option is: 0.1%.
Question 14 Report
Simplify: \(\frac{5}{x - y} - \frac{4}{y - x}\)
Answer Details
To simplify \(\frac{5}{x-y}-\frac{4}{y-x}\), we first notice that \(y-x=-(x-y)\). Thus, we can rewrite the expression as \(\frac{5}{x-y}+\frac{4}{x-y}\). Now, we can combine the fractions by finding a common denominator, which is \(x-y\). Thus, we have \[\frac{5}{x-y}+\frac{4}{x-y}=\frac{5+4}{x-y}=\frac{9}{x-y}.\] Therefore, the simplified expression is \(\boxed{\frac{9}{x-y}}\).
Question 15 Report
Each interior angle of a regular nonagon(nine sided polygon) is equal to
Answer Details
A nonagon has nine sides and nine interior angles. In a regular nonagon, all the sides and angles are equal. To find the measure of each interior angle of a regular nonagon, we can use the formula: Interior angle = (n - 2) x 180° / n where n is the number of sides of the polygon. Substituting n = 9 in the formula, we get: Interior angle = (9 - 2) x 180° / 9 = 7 x 20° = 140° Therefore, each interior angle of a regular nonagon is equal to 140°. So the correct answer is option (C) 140o.

Convert the decimal number 89 to a binary number
Answer Details
To convert a decimal number to binary, we need to continuously divide the decimal number by 2, until the quotient becomes 0. The binary number is obtained by writing the remainders (0 or 1) obtained in reverse order. Here's the step-by-step process: - Divide 89 by 2. Quotient is 44 and remainder is 1. - Divide 44 by 2. Quotient is 22 and remainder is 0. - Divide 22 by 2. Quotient is 11 and remainder is 0. - Divide 11 by 2. Quotient is 5 and remainder is 1. - Divide 5 by 2. Quotient is 2 and remainder is 1. - Divide 2 by 2. Quotient is 1 and remainder is 0. - Divide 1 by 2. Quotient is 0 and remainder is 1. So the remainders obtained in reverse order are: 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 Therefore, the binary representation of 89 is 1011001.

Question 18 Report
The marks obtained by pupils of class are grouped as shown below; 0 - 4, 5 - 9,10 -14, 15 -19. Which of the following is/are not true? l. The mid values of the grouped marks are 2, 7, 12 and 17. II The class interval is 4. III The class boundaries are 0.5, 4.5, 9.5, 14.5 and 19.5
Answer Details
The mid values of the grouped marks can be found by taking the average of the upper and lower limits of each class interval. For example, the mid value of the first class interval (0 - 4) is (0+4)/2 = 2. Similarly, the mid values of the other class intervals can be calculated as 7, 12, and 17. The class interval is the difference between the upper limit of a class interval and the lower limit of the previous class interval. For example, the class interval between 0-4 and 5-9 is 5-4 = 1. The class interval in this case is not 4, but rather it is 5-0 = 5. The class boundaries are the values that separate one class interval from another. They are found by adding and subtracting half of the class interval from the upper and lower limits of each class interval. For example, the lower class boundary of the first class interval (0 - 4) is 0 - 0.5 = -0.5, and the upper class boundary of the second class interval (5 - 9) is 9 + 0.5 = 9.5. Therefore, the class boundaries for the given grouped marks are -0.5, 4.5, 9.5, 14.5, and 19.5. Therefore, the statement that is not true is II only, since the class interval is not 4. The correct class interval is 5, as explained above. So the answer is (B) II only.
Question 19 Report
M varies directly as n and inversely as the square of p. If M = 3, when n = 2 and p = 1, find M in terms of n and p.
Answer Details
We are given that "M varies directly as n and inversely as the square of p." This means that M is directly proportional to n and inversely proportional to the square of p. We can represent this relationship mathematically as: M ∝ n/p^2 where the symbol ∝ means "is proportional to". We are also given that M = 3 when n = 2 and p = 1. We can use this information to find the constant of proportionality k: M ∝ n/p^2 3 ∝ 2/1^2 3 ∝ 2 To find k, we can write: M = k(n/p^2) Substituting the values we know: 3 = k(2/1^2) k = 3/2 Now we can use k to find M in terms of n and p: M = (3/2)(n/p^2) Simplifying, we get: M = (3n)/(2p^2) Therefore, the answer is option D: M = 3n/2p^2.

How many sides has a polygon if the sum of its interior angle is 1440o?
Answer Details
To find the number of sides of a polygon given the sum of its interior angles, we can use the formula: Sum of interior angles = (n - 2) × 180° where "n" is the number of sides of the polygon. We are given that the sum of the interior angles of the polygon is 1440°. Substituting this value into the formula, we get: 1440° = (n - 2) × 180° Simplifying this equation, we can divide both sides by 180: 8 = n - 2 Adding 2 to both sides, we get: n = 10 Therefore, the polygon has 10 sides.

In the diagram above, /PQ/ = /PS/ and /QR/ = /SR/. Which of the following is/are true? i. the line PR bisects ?QRS ii. The line PR is the perpendicular bisector of the line segment QS iii. Every point on PR is equidistant from SP and QP
Answer Details
Given that /PQ/ = /PS/ and /QR/ = /SR/, we can see that triangle QPR and SPR are congruent by the Side-Side-Side (SSS) criterion. Hence, we have ∠QPR = ∠SPR and ∠PQR = ∠PSR. i. From the above statement, we can say that the line PR bisects ∠QRS and ∠QSR, but it does not necessarily bisect the whole angle ∠QSRQ. Hence, statement (i) is true. ii. As triangle QPR and SPR are congruent, we can say that /QP/ = /SP/ and /QR/ = /SR/. Hence, the line PR is the perpendicular bisector of the line segment QS. Therefore, statement (ii) is also true. iii. Every point on the perpendicular bisector of a line segment is equidistant from the endpoints of the line segment. As we have already proved that line PR is the perpendicular bisector of the line segment QS, every point on PR is equidistant from SP and QP. Hence, statement (iii) is true. Therefore, all the three statements are true, and the correct answer is (v) I, II and III.

Therefore, α = -1/4 and β = 3. Substituting these values in the above equation, we get: x2 - (α + β)x + αβ = 0 x2 - (-1/4 + 3)x + (-1/4 × 3) = 0 x2 - 11/4 x - 3/4 = 0 Hence, the quadratic equation is 4x2 - 11x - 3 = 0.

One side of a rectangle is 8cm and the diagonal is 10cm. What is the area of the rectangle?
Answer Details
We know that the diagonal of a rectangle divides it into two right triangles with the diagonal as the hypotenuse, and the sides of the rectangle as the legs of the right triangles. Let's call the other side of the rectangle "x". Using the Pythagorean theorem, we have: 102 = 82 + x2 Simplifying and solving for x, we get: x = √(102 - 82) = √36 = 6 Therefore, the area of the rectangle is: 8 x 6 = 48 cm2 Hence, the answer is 48cm2.
Question 33 Report
If 3p - q = 6 and 2p + 3q = 4, find q
Answer Details
To find the value of q, we need to solve the given system of equations:
3p - q = 6 ...(1)
2p + 3q = 4 ...(2)
One way to solve this system is to use the method of elimination, where we eliminate one of the variables by adding or subtracting the equations.
Multiplying equation (1) by 3, we get:
9p - 3q = 18 ...(3)
Now, we can eliminate q by adding equations (2) and (3):
2p + 3q = 4
9p - 3q = 18
-----------
11p = 22
Dividing both sides by 11, we get:
p = 2
Substituting this value of p in equation (1), we get:
3(2) - q = 6
Simplifying this, we get:
6 - q = 6
Subtracting 6 from both sides, we get:
-q = 0
Dividing both sides by -1, we get:
q = 0
Therefore, q = 0 is the solution of the given system of equations.
In summary, to find the value of q, we used the method of elimination by multiplying equation (1) by 3 and adding it to equation (2) to eliminate q. This resulted in finding the value of p as 2. Substituting this value of p in equation (1), we found the value of q as 0.

Factorize 32x3 - 8xy2
Answer Details
We can factorize the given expression by first finding the greatest common factor (GCF) of the two terms, which is 8x. We can factor out the GCF from the given expression as: 32x3 - 8xy2 = 8x(4x2 - y2) We can then use the identity a2 - b2 = (a + b)(a - b) to factorize the expression further: 8x(4x2 - y2) = 8x(2x + y)(2x - y) Therefore, the fully factorized form of 32x3 - 8xy2 is 8x(2x + y)(2x - y). So, the correct option is: - 8x(2x + y)(2x - y)
