Since BCRP and BCDA are parallelograms ∴ BC = PR and BC = AD (½)
∴ ar (BCRP) = ar (ABCD) ( parallelograms are on equal bases and between same parallels)
∴ area (ABCD) = 2 × area (∆CPR) (½)

Data : ABC is a triangle. (½)
To prove : BAC + ABC + ACB = 180° (½)
Construction : Draw XY || BC passing through the point ‘A’. (½)
Proof :
XAB = ABC (1) [ XY || BC, alternate angles]
YAC = ACB (2) [ XY || BC, alternate angles] (½)
XAB + BAC + YAC = 180° ( XY is a straight line )

Data : C = 90° , DM = CM and AM = BM
To prove : i) ∆AMC ≅ ∆BMD ii) DBC = 90°
Proof : In ∆AMC and ∆BMD,
AM = BM ( Data)
AMC = BMD ( vertically opp. angles)
CM = DM ( Data)
∴ ∆AMC ≅ ∆BMD ( sAs rule ) (2)
∴ MAC = MBD (CPCT ) (½)
⇒ AC || DM ( alternate angles equal) (½)
∴ DBC = ACB = 90°
30. The angles of quadrilateral are 3x, 5x, 9x and 13x. (½)

Perimeter = 96 m
Let length of one side be ‘x’ m and other side will be (x + 16) m (½)
∴ x + x + 16 + 32 = 96
2x + 48 = 96
2x = 96 – 48
2x = 48

x = 24 m (½)
∴ sides of the triangle are 32 m, 24 m and 40m.

35. p(x) = x2 – 13x + k
since (x – 4) is a factor of p(x), p(4) = 0 (½)
p(4) = 42 – 13(4) + k = 0 (½)
16 – 52 + k = 0 (½)
– 36 + k = 0 (½)
k = 36 (½)
∴ p(x) = x2 – 13x + k
= x2 – 13x + 36

= x − 9 x − 4 x + 36 (½)
= x(x – 9) – 4(x – 9) (½)
p(x) = (x – 9) (x – 4) (½)

sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side.’’ (1)
(½)
Data : Points E and F are the mid-points of the sides AB and AC of ∆ABC respectively. Join EF. (½)
To prove : EF || BC. (½)
Construction : Draw CX || BA, EF is produced to meet CX at D. (½)
Proof : In ∆AEF and ∆CDF,
AFE = CFD ( vertically opp. angles)
AF = FC ( ‘F’ is mid-point of AC)
AEF = CDF ( alternate angles)
BA || CX.
∴ ∆AEF ≅ ∆CDF ( ASA rule) (1)
∴ EF = DF ( CPCT)
AE = CD ( CPCT) (½)
But AE = BE ( Given)
∴ CD = BE also CD || BE
∴ BCDE is a parallelogram
∴ EF||BC ( ED || BC opp. sides of parallelogram) (½)
Hence proved
