Q13: In a right angled triangle, if one acute angle is half the other, then the smallest angle is:

(a) 15°
(b) 25°
(c) 30°
(d) 35°


Answers:
1: (b) 50° [Hint: Δ ABC, AB = AC is an isosceles triangle, ∠B =∠C ]

2: (a) 6 cm [ Hint: Δ ABC, ∠C = ∠A, an isosceles triangle, BC = AB]

3: (d) a right triangle
[Hint: Δ ABC, ∠A = ∠B + ∠C, ∵ ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180° ⇒ 2∠A = 180° ⇒ ∠A = 90° ]

4: (d) AC > AB [ Hint: Δ ABC, ∠B = 90°, AC is hypotenuse]

5: (b) ∠A = ∠C [Hint: Δ ABC, AB = BC is an isosceles triangle, ∠A =∠C ]

6: (a) PQ [Hint: ∠R = 70° is the largest, the side opposite to the largest angle is the longest.]

7:  (b) BA > BP
[Hint: Consider the triangle as show in fig-q7,
Given, ∠BAP = ∠CAP = z (say)
∠APC is an exterior angle for ΔBAP
⇒ ∠APC = ∠ABP + ∠BAP
⇒ ∠APC > ∠BAP (greater angle has greater side opposite to it.)
⇒ BA > BP]


8: (b) 50°
[Hint:AB = AC ⇒ ∠ABD = ∠ACD = 40°. ⇒ ∠BAC = 100°
 Δ ABD ≅  Δ ACD by SSS congruence
∠BAD = ∠CAD = 100°/2 = 50°]

9: (c) AB = DE, BC = EF, CA = FD
[Hint: Remember CPCT for corresponding parts of congruent triangles.]

10: (d) AC > AB
[Hint:  ∠B = 90°, AC is hypotenuse the longest side. ]

11: (b) 10 [Hint:  ∠A = ∠C, ⇒AB = BC = 3.]

12: (c) AAA

13: (c) 30° [Hint: x + 2x + 90° = 180° ⇒ 3x = 90°  ⇒ x = 30° ]
