 MATHEMATICS (IX) (CODE NO. 041)
Session 2024-25
The Syllabus in the subject of Mathematics has undergone changes from time to time in accordance with
growth of the subject and emerging needs of the society. The present revised syllabus has been designed
in accordance with National Curriculum Framework 2005 and as per guidelines given in the Focus Group
on Teaching of Mathematics which is to meet the emerging needs of all categories of students. For
motivating the teacher to relate the topics to real life problems and other subject areas, greater emphasis
has been laid on applications of various concepts.

The curriculum at Secondary stage primarily aims at enhancing the capacity of students to employ
Mathematics in solving day-to-day life problems and studying the subject as a separate discipline. It is
expected that students should acquire the ability to solve problems using algebraic methods and apply the
knowledge of simple trigonometry to solve problems of height and distances. Carrying out experiments
with numbers and forms of geometry, framing hypothesis and verifying these with further observations
form inherent part of Mathematics learning at this stage. The proposed curriculum includes the study of
number system, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, mensuration, statistics, graphs and coordinate geometry,
etc.

The teaching of Mathematics should be imparted through activities which may involve the use of concrete
materials, models, patterns, charts, pictures, posters, games, puzzles and experiments.

Objectives
The broad objectives of teaching of Mathematics at secondary stage are to help the learners to:
 consolidate the Mathematical knowledge and skills acquired at the upper primary stage;
 acquire knowledge and understanding, particularly by way of motivation and visualization, of basic
concepts, terms, principles and symbols and underlying processes and skills;
 develop mastery of basic algebraic skills;
9|Page
 develop drawing skills;
 feel the flow of reason while proving a result or solving a problem;
 apply the knowledge and skills acquired to solve problems and wherever possible, by more than one
method;
 to develop ability to think, analyze and articulate logically;
 to develop awareness of the need for national integration, protection of environment, observance
of small family norms, removal of social barriers, elimination of gender biases;
 to develop necessary skills to work with modern technological devices and mathematical software's.
 to develop interest in mathematics as a problem-solving tool in various fields for its beautiful structures
and patterns, etc.
 to develop reverence and respect towards great Mathematicians for their contributions to the field of
Mathematics;
 to develop interest in the subject by participating in related competitions;
 to acquaint students with different aspects of Mathematics used in daily life;
 to develop an interest in students to study Mathematics as a discipline.

CHAPTER –1. NUMBER SYSTEM

KEY POINTS-

Introduction to Natural Numbers

Non-negative counting numbers excluding zero are called Natural
Numbers.
N = {1, 2, 3, 4,5…}
Whole Numbers
All natural numbers including zero are called Whole
Numbers.
W = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5…}
Integers
All natural numbers, 0 and negatives of natural numbers are called
Integers.
Z = {……,–3,–2,–1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4…….}
Rational Numbers
The number ‘a’ is called Rational if it can be written in the form of r/s where ‘r’ and ‘s’

1|Page
MATHEMATICS / IX / 2024-25/RO-BENGALURU

are integers and s ≠ 0,

Q = 2/3, 3/5,7 etc. all are rational numbers.
How to find a rational number between two given numbers?
The rational number between two given numbers ‘a’ and ‘b’ is

Example: Find two rational numbers between 4 and 5.

Solution: To find a rational number between 4 and 5.

To find another number we will follow the same process again.

Hence the two rational numbers between 4 and 5 are 9/2 and 17/4.
Remarks: There could be unlimited rational numbers between any two rational numbers.
Irrational Numbers
The number ‘a’ which cannot be written in the form of p/q is called irrational, where
p and q are integers and q ≠ 0 or you can say that the numbers which are not rational are
called Irrational [Link] - √7, √11 etc.
Real Numbers

2|Page
MATHEMATICS / IX / 2024-25/RO-BENGALURU

All numbers including both rational and irrational numbers are called Real
Numbers R = –2, (-2/3), 0, 3 and √2 etc.

Real Numbers and their Decimal Expansions

1. Rational Number
If the rational number is in the form of a/b then by dividing a by b we can get two
situations.

a. If the remainder becomes zero

While dividing if we get zero as the remainder after some steps then the decimal
expansion of such number is called terminating.

Example: 7/8 = 0.875

b. If the remainder does not become zero

While dividing if the decimal expansion continues and a digit or a set of finite
number of digits repeats periodically then it is called non terminating recurring or
repeating decimal expansion.

Example: 1/3 = 0.3333….

Hence, the decimal expansion of rational numbers could be terminating or non-

3|Page
MATHEMATICS / IX / 2024-25/RO-BENGALURU

terminating recurring and vice-versa.

2. Irrational Numbers
If we do the decimal expansion of an irrational number then it would be non –
terminating non- recurring and vice-versa. i.e the remainder does not become zero and
also not repeated.
Example: π = 3.141592653589793238……
Operations on Real Numbers
1. The sum, difference, product and quotient of two rational numbers will be

[Link]:

2. If we add or subtract a rational number with an irrational number then the

outcome will be irrational.
Example: If 5 is a rational number and √7 is an irrational number then 5+√7 and 5-√7 are
irrational numbers.
3. If we multiply or divide a non-zero rational number with an irrational number
then also the outcome will be irrational.
Example: If 7 is a rational number and √5 is an irrational number then 7√7 and 7/√5 are
irrational numbers.

4. The sum, difference, product and quotient of two irrational numbers could be
rational or irrational.

Example:

MATHEMATICS / IX / 2024-25/RO-BENGALURU

Finding Roots of a Positive Real Number ‘x’ geometrically and mark it on the Number Line
To find √x geometrically

1. First of all, mark the distance x unit from point A on the lines B that AB = x unit.
2. From B mark a point C with the distance of 1unit, so that BC = 1unit.

3. Take the midpoint of AC and mark it as O. Then take OC as the radius and draw a
semi circle.

4. From the point B draw a perpendicular BD which intersects the semi circle at point D.

The length of BD = √x unit.

To mark the position of √x on the number line, we will take AC as the number line, with
B as zero. So C is point 1 on the number line.

Now we will take B as the centre and BD as the radius, and draw an arc intersecting the
number line at point E.

Now E is √x on the number line.

Identities Related to Square Roots

If p and q are two positive real numbers

Examples: Simplify

We will use the identity

Rationalizing the Denominator

Rationalize the denominator means to convert the denominator containing square root term
into a rational number by finding the equivalent fraction of the given fraction.

For which we can use the identities of the real numbers.

Example: Rationalize the denominator of 7 / (7-√3).

Solution: We will use the identity here.

Reason: If the decimal expansion of a real number is either terminating
or non - terminating recurring , it is a rational number.
ANSWERS:
1. We know that there are infinitely many rational numbers between any two given rational
numbers.
So, Reason is not correct.
One of the rational number lying between two rational numbers x and y is (x+y)/2.

So, Assertion is correct. Correct option: (C) Assertion (A) is true but reason (R) is false
2. Here reason is not true. Example √4 = ± 2, which is not an irrational number.
Correct option: (C) Assertion (A) is true but reason (R) is false.

CHAPTER-2 POLYNOMIAL
Mind map

Polynomial is an algebraic expression which includes constants, variables and

exponents. It is the expression in which the variables have only positive integral
powers.
Example
1. 2x 3 + 7x 2 + x +3 is a polynomial in variable x.
2. 3x 2 + 3x -1 - 4 is not a polynomial as it has negative power.
3. x 3/2 + 5x – 3 is not a polynomial.

20 | P a g e
MATHEMATICS / IX / 2024-25/RO-BENGALURU

 Polynomials are denoted by p(x), q(x) etc.

 In the above polynomial 2x 2 , 3y and 2 are the terms of the polynomial.
 2 and 3 are the coefficient of the x 2 and y respectively.
 x and y are the variables.
 2 is the constant term which has no variable.

 Types of Polynomials according to no. of terms

Number of Non-Zero Terms Name Example

0 Zero Polynomial 0

1 Monomial 3x

2 Binomial X2 + y2

3 Trinomial 3𝑿𝟐 +𝒀𝟐 +2

Degree of Polynomial - The highest value of the power of the variable in the polynomial
is
the degree of the polynomial.
 Types of Polynomials according to degree of it.

Zeroes of a Polynomial
If p(x) is a polynomial then the number ‘a’ will be the zero of the polyn omial with
p(a) = 0. We can find the zero of the polynomial by equating it to zero.

Example: 1
Given polynomial is p(x) = x - 6
To find the zero of the polynomial we will equate it to zero.
x-6=0
x=6
p(6) = x – 6 = 6 – 6 = 0
This shows that if we place 6 in place of x, we got the value of the polynomial as zero.
So 6 is the zero of this polynomial. And also we are getting the value 6 by equating
the polynomial by 0.
So 6 is the zero of the polynomial or root of the polynomial.

IMPORTANT POINTS :-

22 | P a g e
 MATHEMATICS / IX / 2024-25/RO-BENGALURU

 A zero of a Polynomial need not be 0.

 0 may be a zero of a Polynomial.
 Every linear polynomial has one and only one zero.
 A polynomial can have more than one zero.

FACTOR THEOREM – If p(x) is a polynomial of degree n ≥ 1 and a is any real number,

then
(i) x-a is a factor of p(x), if p(a) = 0 and
(ii) p(a) = 0, if x-a is a factor of p(x)

PROOF :- By the Remainder Theorem, p(x) = (x-a) q(x) + p(a).

(i) If p(a) = 0, then p(x) = (x – a) q(x), which shows that (x-a) is a factor of p(x).
(ii) Since (x – a) is a factor of p(x), p(x) = (x – a) g(x) for same polynomial g(x),
In this case, p(a) = (a – a) g(a) = 0.

ALGEBRAIC IDENTITIES :-
 Identity I (a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + 𝑏 2
 Identity II (a – b)2 = a2 – 2ab + 𝑏 2
 Identity III a2 – b2 = (a + b)(a – b)
 Identity IV (x + a)(x + b) = x2 + (a + b) x + ab.
 Identity V (a + b + c)2 = a2 + b2 + c2 + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca.
 Identity VI (a + b)3 = a3 + b3 + 3ab (a + b)
 Identity VII (a – b)3 = a3 – b3 – 3ab (a – b)
 Identity VIII a3 + b3 + c3– 3abc = (a + b + c)(a2 + b2 + c2 – ab – bc – ca)

CHAPTER- 3 COORDINATE GEOMETRY

KEY POINTS
1. To locate the position of an object or a point in a plane, we require two perpendicular lines. One of
them is horizontal, and the other is vertical.
2. The plane is called the Cartesian, or coordinate plane and the lines are called the coordinate axes. 3.
The horizontal line is called the x -axis, and the vertical line is called the y - axis.
4. The coordinate axes divide the plane into four parts called quadrants.
5. The point of intersection of the axes is called the origin.
6. The distance of a point from the y - axis is called its x-coordinate, or abscissa, and the distance of
the point from the x-axis is called its y-coordinate, or ordinate.
7. If the abscissa of a point is x and the ordinate is y, then (x, y) are called the coordinates of the
point.
8. The coordinates of a point on the x-axis are of the form (x, 0) and that of the point on the y-axis are
(0, y).
9. The coordinates of the origin are (0, 0).

[Link] know that a point lies on the Y-axis if its x-coordinate is zero.
Here, x-coordinate of points C(0,1), D(0, 0), E(0, -1) and G(0, 5) are zero. So, these
points lie on Y-axis.
Also, D(0, 0) is the intersection point of both the axes, so we consider that it lies on the y-axis
as well as on x-axis.

x=3, y=5
Put these values in equation
2(3)+5=k
6+5=k
k=11
2. Find two solutions for the equations 4x + 3y = 12.
Sol : For x = 0
4(0)+3y = 12
3y = 12
y= 4
For y = 0
4x + 3(0) = 12
4x = 12
x=3
The two solutions are (0,4) and (3,0).
3. Write the coordinates of the point where the line 2x – 7y = 14 intersects x - axis.

This point will satisfy the line

2x−7y=14
2h−7(0)=14
2h=14
h=7
So, the point is (7,0)
4. The cost of a notebook is twice the cost of a pen. Write a linear equation in two variables to
represent this statement.
Sol : Let the price of one notebook be = ₹ x
Let the price of one pen be = ₹ y

Let x = 0 ,so 3(0) + 4y = 12 , 4y = 12, y = 3
Point is (0, 3)
The point on x axis
Let y =0,so 3x + 4(0) =12, 3x = 12, x= 4
Point is (4,0)
7. Determine the point on the graph of the equation 2x + 5y = 20 whose x-coordinate is 5/2
times its ordinate.
Sol : 2x + 5y = 20
x=5/2 y
2x+5y=20
⇒2×5/2 y+5y=20
⇒10y=20
⇒y = 2
x = 5/2 y= 5/2×2=5
∴ x=5
8. At what point does the graph of the linear equation x + y = 5 meet a line which is parallel
to the y-axis, at a distance 2 units from the origin and in the positive direction of x-axis.
Sol : The equation of a line which is parallel to the y-axis at a distance 2 units from the origin
and in the positive direction of x-axis is x=2.
The given line is x+y=5
Putting x = 2 in the above equation, we get

5. Let y varies directly as x. If y = 12 when x = 4, then write a linear equation. What is the
value of y when x = 5.
Sol : Given that, y varies directly as x.
i.e… y ∝ x
⇒y=kx …(i) [where k = arbitrary constant]
Given, y = 12 and x = 4 (substituting these values in Eq(i))
12 = 4k
⇒k=12/4
∴ k = 3.
On Putting the value of k in eq.(i) we get
y = 3x …(ii)
When x = 5, from Eq. (ii), we get,
y = 3 ×5
⇒ y = 15
Hence, the value of y is 15.

CHAPTER-5 INTRODUCTION TO EUCLID’S GEOMETRY

53 | P a g e
MATHEMATICS / IX / 2024-25/RO-BENGALURU

INTRODUCTION TO EUCLID’S GEOMETRY

 The word 'geometry' comes from the Greek words 'geo', meaning the 'earth', and
'metrein', meaning 'to measure’ .
 Geometry originated from the need for measuring land.
 Euclid , the Greek mathematician is called the Father of Geometry.
 Euclid collected all the known works in his time and created his famous treatise –
“Elements” . He divided the ‘Elements' into thirteen chapters, each called a book.
 Euclid defined some terms precisely as below :

Euclid’s Definitions

 A point is that which has no part.

 A line is a breadthless length.
 The ends of a line are points.
 A straight line is a line which lies evenly with the points on itself.
 A surface is that which has length and breadth only.
 The edges of a surface are lines.
 A plane surface is a surface which lies evenly with the straight lines on itself.

Undefined Terms:
In geometry, a point, a line and a plane (in Euclid’s words, a plane surface) are
considered as undefined terms.

Axioms and Postulates : Axioms and postulates are the assumptions which are obvious
universal
truths , which are accepted without proof.
 Axioms are the assumptions used throughout Mathematics.
 Postulates are the assumptions which are specific to Geometry.

Theorems: Theorems are statements which are proved using definitions, axioms, previously
proved statements and deductive reasoning.

Euclid’s Axioms

 Things which are equal to the same thing are equal to one another.
 If equals are added to equals, the wholes are equal.
 If equals are subtracted from equals, the remainders are equal.
 Things which coincide with one another are equal to one another.
 The whole is greater than the part.
 Things which are double of the same things are equal to one another.
 Things which are halves of the same things are equal to one another.

54 | P a g e
MATHEMATICS / IX / 2024-25/RO-BENGALURU

Consistent system of axioms :

A system of axioms is said to be consistent , if it is impossible to deduce from
these
axioms a statement that contradicts any axiom or previously proved statement .

Euclid’s Postulates:

Postulate 1: A straight line may be drawn from any one point to any other point.

Axiom : Given two distinct points, there is a unique line that passes through them.

Postulate 2: A terminated line can be produced indefinitely.

Postulate 3: A circle can be drawn with any centre and any radius.

Postulate 4: All right angles are equal to one another.

If ∠1 = 90° and ∠2 = 90° , then ∠1 = ∠2 .

55 | P a g e
MATHEMATICS / IX / 2024-25/RO-BENGALURU

Postulate 5: If a straight line falling on two straight lines makes the interior angles on the
same
side of it taken together less than two right angles, then the two straight lines, if
produced indefinitely, meet on that side on which the sum of the angles is less
than
two right angles.

Theorem : Two distinct lines cannot have more than one point in common.

Given : Two lines l and m.

To prove : Lines l and m cannot have more than one point in common
Proof : Let us suppose that the two lines intersect in two distinct points, say P and Q.
Now
there are two lines passing through two distinct points P and Q. But this
contradicts the
axiom that only one line can pass through two distinct points. So, the assumption
that
we started with, that two lines can pass through two distinct points is incorrect .
From this, we conclude that two distinct lines cannot have more than one point in
common.

3. PT = RT and TQ = TS
PT + TQ = RT + TS
So, PQ = RS
4. Relation : AC + CB = AB

5. Two lines which intersect at right angles

Words that need to be defined : line, intersect, right angle
6. Given ∠1= ∠2 and ∠2= ∠3
So, ∠1= ∠3
Reason : Things which are equal to the same thing are equal to one another
7. Any 2 axioms
8. Given : line segment AB of any length. Draw an arc with point A as the
centre and AB as the radius .Similarly, draw an arc with point B as the
centre and BA as the radius. The two arcs meet at a point, say C. Draw
the line segments AC and BC to form Δ ABC .
Now, AB = AC (equal radii ) . Also , AB = BC (equal radii)
By Euclid’s axiom , things which are equal to the same thing are equal to one
another
Then AB = BC = AC. So, Δ ABC is an equilateral triangle.

9. A system of axioms is said to be consistent , if it is impossible to deduce from these

axioms a statement that contradicts any axiom or previously proved statement .
10. AB+BC+CD = AD , is a part of AG
By Euclid’s axiom , the whole is greater than the part

66 | P a g e

So, AG > AD and AG > AB+BC+CD

SECTION C ( 3 mark Qs)

1. Parallel lines : Two or more lines which do not meet at any point
Collinear points : Three or more points which lie on the same line
Line segment : Part of a line having two endpoints
Figure for each

2. If a straight line falling on two straight lines makes the interior angles on the same
side of it taken together less than two right angles, then the two straight lines, if produced
indefinitely, meet on that side on which the sum of the angles is less than two right
angles.

3. Given ∠PQR = ∠PRQ .

∠PQR + ∠PQS = 1800. Also, ∠PRQ + ∠PRT = 1800
∠PQR + ∠PQS = ∠PRQ + ∠PRT
So, ∠PQS = ∠PRT ( Equals subtracted from equals )

4. Undefined terms : point , line

These postulates are consistent, because they deal with two different situations:
(i) says that for given 2 points P and Q, there is a point R lying on the line in between
them;
(ii) says that given P and Q, we can take R not lying on the line through P and Q.
These postulates do not follow from Euclid’s postulates.

5. Given : Two lines l and m.

To prove : Lines l and m cannot have more than one point in common
Proof : Let us suppose that the two lines intersect in two distinct points, say P and
Q.
Now there are 2 lines passing through two distinct points P and Q. But this
contradicts
the axiom that only one line can pass through two distinct points. So, the
assumption
that we started with, that two lines can pass through two distinct points is
incorrect .
From this, we conclude that two distinct lines cannot have more than one point in
common.

OR

Yes , if the two straight lines make the interior angles on the same side of it taken
together as equal to two right angles, then the two straight lines will never meet
and

will be parallel.

CASE STUDY QUESTION -2

a) A polygon
b) Elements ; 13 chapters.
c) i)Axioms are the assumptions which are obvious universal truths , used
throughout Mathematics . ii)Any one axiom
OR
Consider a line segment AB. Assume that it has two midpoints say C and D
Now, AC = BC and AD = DB
Since C is midpoint of AB, we have A, C and B are collinear

68 | P a g e
MATHEMATICS / IX / 2024-25/RO-BENGALURU

∴ AC + BC = AB → (1)
Similarly, AD + DB = AB → (2)
From (1) and (2), AC + BC = AD + DB
Then 2 AC = 2AD and so , AC = AD
This is possible only when C and D coincide.
Thus every line segment has one and only one midpoint.

2. AOC is not a line, because ∠ AOB+ ∠COB=100°+82°=182°, so this is not equal

to 180. Similarly, BOF is also not a line.

3. 2x = 180 – 40 = 140 , X = 700

SHORT ANSWERS (3 marks)

1. Here we have PQ || RS. Produce PQ to M.

∠CQP=∠MQD [Vertically opp. ∠S]
Therefore,60°=∠1+25° => ∠1=35°
Now, QM || RS and QR will cut CD and AB
∠ARQ=∠RQD=25°[Alt. ∠S]
Therefore,∠1+(∠ARQ+∠RMP)=180°
This implies ∠1+(∠ARQ+∠ARS)=180°
This implies 35°+(25°+∠ARS)=180°
This implies ∠ARS=180°−60°=120°
Therefore ∠QRS=∠ARQ+∠ARS
=25°+120°=145°.

2. Since, l||m and t is the transversal

∠MAB= ∠SBA [Alt. ∠s]
1/2 ∠MAB=1/2∠SBA
This implies ∠PAB=∠QBA
But ∠PAB and ∠QBA are alternate angles
Therefore AP || BQ.

3. Proving theorem of vertically opposite angles are equal using linear pair twice

4. Y + Z = 180 , Y= 3 x 18 = 54 , Z= 7 x 18 = 126,, X = Z = 126 ( alt int )

5. ∠POR +∠ROQ = 180° (linear pair of angles since PQ is a straight line)
∠POR : ∠ROQ = 5 : 7
Therefore, ∠POR = (5/12) × 180° = 75°
Similarly, ∠ROQ = (7/12) × 180° = 105°
Now, ∠POS = ∠ROQ = 105° (vertically opposite angles)
∠SOQ = ∠POR = 75° (vertically opposite angles)

LONG ANSWERS (5 marks)

Sol.(1) Given: PQ and RS are the two lines and a transversal AD intersects these two
lines at points B and C, respectively. Ray BE is the bisector of ∠ABQ and ray CG is the
bisector of ∠BCS, and BE || CG.

To prove: PQ || RS

Proof:Given that ray, BE is the bisector of ∠ABQ, Therefore, ∠ABE = (1/2) ∠ABQ….(1)

Similarly, ray CG is the bisector of ∠BCS, Therefore, ∠BCG = (1/2) ∠BCS….(2)

83 | P a g e
MATHEMATICS / IX / 2024-25/RO-BENGALURU

As we know, BE || CG and AD is the transversal.

Therefore, ∠ABE = ∠BCG (corresponding angles axiom)…..(3)

Substituting (1) and (2) in (3), we get;

(1/2) ∠ABQ = (1/2) ∠BCS

⇒ ∠ABQ = ∠BCS

These are the corresponding angles formed by transversal AD with PQ and RS; they
are equal.

Thus, by the converse of corresponding angles axiom, we have; PQ || RS

Hence proved.

Sol (2). Given: △ABC, produce BC to D, and the bisectors of ∠ABC and ∠ACD meet at
point T.

To prove: ∠BTC = ½ ∠BAC

Proof: In △ABC, ∠ACD is an exterior angle.

We know that, The exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of two opposite
angles,

Then, ∠ACD = ∠ABC + ∠CAB

Dividing both sides of the equation by 2, we get;

⇒ ½ ∠ACD = ½ ∠CAB + ½ ∠ABC

⇒ ∠TCD = ½ ∠CAB + ½ ∠ABC .…(1)

[∵CT is a bisector of ∠ACD ⇒ ½ ∠ACD = ∠TCD]

As we know, the exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of two opposite angles.

In △ BTC, ∠TCD = ∠BTC + ∠CBT

⇒ ∠TCD = ∠BTC + ½ ∠ABC ….(2)

[∵BT is bisector of △ ABC ⇒∠CBT = ½ ∠ABC ]

84 | P a g e
MATHEMATICS / IX / 2024-25/RO-BENGALURU

From (1) and (2), we get;

½ ∠CAB + ½ ∠ABC = ∠BTC + ½ ∠ABC

⇒ ½ ∠CAB = ∠BTC

Or ½ ∠BAC = ∠BTC

Hence proved.

Sol (3) a = 115° and b = 40° (using properties of parallel lines )

ANSWER KEY
1. Given, a parallelogram ABCD in which AB = 10 cm and AD = 6cm.
Now, draw a bisector of ∠A meets DC in E and produce it to F Also, produce AD
to H and join HF, so that ABFH is a parallelogram.

2.
Since HF ∥ AB
∴∠AFH=∠FAB [alternate interior angles]
∠HAF=∠FAB [since, AF is the bisector of ∠A]
⇒∠HAF=∠AFH [from eq.(i)]
⇒HF=AH [sides opposite to equal angles are equal ]
But HF = AB = 10 cm
∴AH=AB=10cm
⇒AD+DH=10cm
⇒DH=(10−6)cm
∴DH=4cm
Since CFHD is a parallelogram.
Therefore, the opposite sides are equal.
∴DH=CF=4cmnd produce BC to meet at F.

5. Since ABCD is a parallelogram,

AB = CD and AD = BC [ Opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal ]
Now, in Δs ABD and ACB, we have
AD = BC [ As proved above]
BD = AC [Given]
and AB = AB [common]
Sp, by SSS criterion of congruence
Δ ABC ≅ Δ ACB
⇒ ∠BAD = ∠ABC ........(i)
[Corresponding parts of congruent triangle are equal]
Now, AD∥ BC and transversal AB intersects them at A and B respectively.
Therefore,
∠BAD + ∠ABC =180∘ [Using (i)]
⇒ ∠ABC + ∠ABC =180∘
⇒ 2∠ABC =180∘
⇒ ∠ABC =90∘
Hence, the measure of ∠ABC is 90∘

Diagonals AC and BD of quadrilateral ABCD bisect each other at O.

∵AO=OC,BO=OD∴ABCD is a ||gm. ∠A=45∘But ∠A+∠B=180∘ (Sum of consecutive
angles)∴∠B=180∘−∠A=180∘−45∘=135∘

ANS 1. IN Δ PAB and ΔPDC

AB =DC

∠ABP = ∠DCP [Angle in the same segment]

∠PAB= ∠PDC [Angle in the same segment]

ΔPAB ≅ ΔPDC [ASA criterion]

ANS 2
∠ADC =∠ABC = 900[AC is the common hypotenuse of ΔADC and ΔABC

∠ADC + ∠ABC =180

∴ Quadrilateral ABCD is cyclic

Now, chord CD subtends ∠CAD and ∠CBD

∠CAD =∠CBD [Angle in the same segment]

ANS 3

Join AC Given that OD ⊥ AB

121 | P a g e
MATHEMATICS / IX / 2024-25/RO-BENGALURU

D is the mid-point of AB

O is the mid-Point of BC

Now in ΔABC,

OD is the line joining the mid points of sides BC and AB

OD = 1/2AC by mid point theorem.

So AC = 2 OD.
Hence proved.

ANS 4

Join OA and OC

IN ΔOAB AND ΔOCB

OA = OC (radii of circle)

OB =OB (common)

AB = AB (given)

ΔOAB ≅ ΔOCB (by SSS )

122 | P a g e
MATHEMATICS / IX / 2024-25/RO-BENGALURU

∠ABO = ∠CBO

Hence, BO bisects ABC

ANS 5.

AB is a diameter and C is a point on the semi-circle

m∠ACB = 900

m∠CAB =300
In ΔACB,

m∠ABC +300 + 900 =180

m∠ABC +120 = 180

m∠ABC =1800 -1200 = 600

m∠ACB = 900 AND m∠ACB = 900 .

AB = 2BP = 2X 4 = 8cm

ANS 8 Given that AB and AC is two equal chords of the circle with centre O ,

OD ⊥ AB And OE ⊥ AC
OD =OE ( Equal chords are equidistant)

∠ODE = ∠OED………..(i)

∠ODA =∠OEA……..(ii)

Subtracting (i) from (ii)

∠ODA - ∠ODE = ∠OEA -∠OED

∠ADE = ∠AED

AD = AE

Δ ADE is an isosceles triangle.

ANS 9 , ∠ABC+∠ADC= 180 [Opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral]

∠ABC + ∠CBE = 180

∠ABC +∠ADC = ∠ABC +∠CBE

∠ADC = ∠CBE

124 | P a g e
MATHEMATICS / IX / 2024-25/RO-BENGALURU

∠CBE = ∠ADC

ANS 10 . AB is a chord of the circle with centre O .

OM ⊥ AB

OA = OB (radii of same circle)

OM = OM (common)

ΔAOB ≅ 𝛥COD (by SSS)

∠OMA = ∠OMB [each 900 ]

ΔOAM ≅ ΔOBM (by SAS)

AM = BM

Hence OM bisects AB

3 MARKS QUESTIONS:

Example 1.

In Figure, LABC = 69°, L ACB = 31°, find ∠BDC.

Solution:

As we know, angles in the segment of the circle are equal so,

∠BAC = ∠BDC

125 | P a g e
MATHEMATICS / IX / 2024-25/RO-BENGALURU

Now in the In ΔABC, sum of all the interior angles will be 180°

So, ∠ABC + ∠BAC + ∠ACB = 180°

Now, by putting the values,

∠BAC = 180° – 69° – 31°

So, ∠BAC = 80°

Example 2. A circular park of radius 20m is situated in a colony. Three boys Ankur, Syed
and David are sitting at equal distance on its boundary each having a toy telephone in his
hands to talk each other. Find the length of the string of each phone.

Solution:

Here the positions of Ankur, Syed and David are represented as A, B and C respectively.
Since they are sitting at equal distances, the triangle ABC will form an equilateral triangle.

AD ⊥ BC is drawn. Now, AD is median of Δ ABC and it passes through the centre O.

Also, O is the centroid of the ΔABC. OA is the radius of the triangle.

2
OA = 3 AD

𝑎
Let, the side of a triangle a metres then BD = 2m.

Applying Pythagoras theorem in ΔABD,

AB2 = BD2 + AD2

126 | P a g e
MATHEMATICS / IX / 2024-25/RO-BENGALURU

⇒ AD2 = AB2 – BD2

𝑎
⇒ AD2 = a2 – (2)2

3𝑎2
⇒ AD2 = 4

√3
⇒ AD = 𝑎
2

2
Now, OA = 3 AD

2 √3
⇒ 20 m = 3 × 𝑎
2

⇒ a = 20√3 m

So, the length of the string of the toy is 20√3 m.

1. Two congruent circles intersect each other at points A and B. Through A any line
segment PAQ is drawn so that P , Q lie on the two circles. Prove that BP = BQ .

Ans. Given: Two equal circles intersect in A and B .

128 | P a g e
MATHEMATICS / IX / 2024-25/RO-BENGALURU

A straight line through A meets the circles in P and Q.

To prove: BP = BQ

Construction: Join A and B .

Proof: AB is a common chord and the circles are equal.

∴ Arc about the common chord are equal, i.e.,

arc ACB = arc ADB

Since equal arcs of two equal circles subtend equal angles at any point on the
remaining part

of the circle, then we have,

∠1 = ∠2

In triangle PBQ,

∠1 = ∠2 [proved]
Sides opposite to equal angles of a triangle are equal.

Then we have, BP BQ

2. Let vertex of an ∠ ABC be located outside a circle and let the sides of
The angle intersect chords AD and CE. Prove that ∠ABC is
equal to half the difference of the angles subtended by the chords AC and DE at the
centre.

129 | P a g e
MATHEMATICS / IX / 2024-25/RO-BENGALURU

Ans. Vertex B of ∠ABC is located out side the circle with centre O.

Side AB intersects chord CE at point E and side BC intersects chord AD at point D with
the circle
We have to prove that
1
∠ABC= 2[∠AOC-∠DOE]

Join OA ,OC ,OE and OD.

Now ∠AOC=2∠AEC

[Angle subtended by an arc at the centre of the circle is twice the angle subtended by the
same arc at any point in the alternate segment of the circle]
1
∠AOC=∠AEC……….(i)
2

1
Similarly ∠DOE = ∠DCE……..ii)
2

Subtracting eq. (ii) from eq. (i),

½ (∠AOC- ∠DOE)= ∠AEC-∠DCE ……(iii)

Now ∠AEC=∠ADC (Angles in same segment in circle) .....

Also ∠DCE=∠DAE

Using eq. (iv) and (v) in eq.(iii),

1/2[∠AOC-∠DOE ]= (∠DAE+∠ABD) -∠DAE ….(exterior property)

1
[∠AOC-∠DOE] = LABD
2

Or
1
[∠AOC-∠DOE] = LABC
2

Hence proved.
