Q.1) Choose the correct alternative answer for each of the following question: 3
1)Ans. (c) 3cm
2)Ans. (c)
5² = 25 ……….. (i)
4² + 3² = 16 + 9 = 25……….. (ii)
From (i) and (ii)
5² = 4² + 3²
3)Ans. (b)
DB = 26 cm
So, DO = 13 cm
DO = OB = 13 cm
Using Apollonius Theorem
AD² + AB² = 2AO² + 2DO²
11² + 17² = 2AO² + 2(13)²
121 + 209 = 2AO² + 2(169)
410 = 2AO² + 338
2AO² = 410 – 338
2OA² = 72
OA² = 36
OA = 6
AC = 2OA = 2 x 6 = 12
∴ The length of the other diagonal = 12 cm
