MATHEMATICS

1)

∵ ∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°
∠A + 50° + 85° = 180°
∠A = 45° = ∠P (∵ ΔABC ≅ ΔPQR)

2)

(i) ΔABC ≅ ΔRPQ

(ii) ΔQPR ≅ ΔCBA

3)

Area of equilateral triangle = a2

⇒ 4 × 4 = a2
⇒ a = 4 cm
Side = 4 cm

4)

Abscissa of A = –3
Ordinate of B = –4
(–3) + (–4) = –7

5)

In ΔADC
∠DAC + ∠ADC + 64° = 180°
∠CAD + ∠ADC = 116°
CD = CA ⇒ ∠CAD = ∠ADC (property of isosceles Δ)

= 58°
Now, ∠ADC = ∠ABD + ∠DAB (Exterior angle property of Δ)
∠ADC = 2∠DAB

⇒ ∠DAB = ∠ADC

x = ∠DAB = × 58° = 29°

Its semiperimeter
Then, the area of one triangular piece
There are 5 triangular pieces of one colour and 5 of the other colour.
Then total area of cloth of each colour

(i) 2nd quadrant

(ii) +ve y – axis
(iii) –ve x – axis
(iv) 3rd quadrant

8)

a = 12 cm
b = 12 cm
Perimeter = 30 cm
⇒ c = 30 – 24 = 6 cm

∴ Area =

9)

Given : ΔPQR is equilateral, in which Q(0, 2) and R(0, –2)

Let (x, 0) be coordinates of P.
[∵ P lies on X-axis so ordinate part of P is 0]
∴ PQ = PR = QR = 2 + 2 = 4
OQ = 2 (from figure)
In ΔPOQ
PQ2 = OP2 + OQ2
42 = OP2 + 22
16 – 4 = OP2 ⇒ OP2 = 12 and
Hence coordinates of P are

10)

Area of Δ = × 10 × ×6×x+ × 14 × x

11)
Given : ΔABC in which ∠B = ∠C.
To prove : AB = AC.
Construction : Draw AD ⊥ BC. AD meets BC at D.
Proof :
In ΔABD and ΔACD
∠ABD = ∠ACD [Given]
∠ADB = ∠ADC [Each = 90°]
AD = AD [Common]
ΔABD ≅ ΔACD [By AAS criteria]
AB = AC [By C.P.C.T.]
Hence proved.

12)

Plot the three vertices of the rectangle as A(3,2), B(–4,2), C(–4,5) is given ahead.
To find the coordinates of the fourth vertex D so that ABCD is a rectangle, the opposite sides
of a rectangle are equal, therefore the abscissa of D should be equal to abscissa of A, i.e., 3
and the ordinate of D should be equal to the ordinate of C, i.e., 5.
Hence, the coordinates of D are (3,5).

Area of rectangle = 7 × 3 = 21 [Link]

13)
 Given :-
AC = AE (given)
AB = AD (given)
∠BAD = ∠EAC (given)
To prove :- BC = DE
∠BAD + ∠DAC = ∠EAC + ∠DAC (Adding ∠DAC both sides)
∠BAC = ∠EAD
In ΔBAC and ΔEAD
AB = AD (given)
∠BAC = ∠EAD (proved above)
AC = AE (given)
ΔBAC ≅ ΔDAE (By SAS congruence)
BC = DE (By CPCT)

SOCIAL SCIENCE

14) Indus - near Lake Mansarowar, Ganga - Gangotri Glacier.

15) (I) Water divide : An elevated area, such as a mountain or an upland, separates two
drainage basins. Such an upland is known as a water divide
(II) Drainage : The term drainage is used to describe the river system of an area.

16) The headwaters of the Ganga, called the ‘Bhagirathi’ is fed by the Gangotri Glacier and
joined by the Alaknanda at Devaprayag in Uttarakhand.

17) NRCP- National Rivers Conservation Plan

The objective of the NRCP is to improve the water quality of the rivers, which are major water
sources in the country, through the implementation of pollultion abatement work.

18) Ambala is located on the water divide between the Indus and the Ganga river systems
The length of the Ganga is over 2500 km.

19) The Narmada Basin (Any three)

• This river originates from Amarkantak hills in Madhya Pradesh.
• It flows towards the west in a rift valley formed due to faulting.
• On its way to the sea, the Narmada creates many pitcturesque locations. The 'Marble rocks'
near Jabalpur where the Narmada flows through a deep gorge and the ‘Dhuadhar falls’ where
the river plunges over steep rocks are some of the notable ones.
• All the tributaries of the Narmada are very short and most of these join the main stream at
right angles.
• The Narmada basin covers parts of Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat.

20) The Godavari originates from Nasik district of Maharashtra. The Godavari is often refered
as 'Vridha Ganga' or 'Dakshin Ganga' because of its large size and extent. Its length is 1500
[Link] drainage basin is also the largest among the peninsular rivers. The basin covers parts of
Maharashtra (about 50 per cent of the basin area lies in Maharashtra), Madhya Pradesh,
Odisha and Andhra [Link] principal tributaries include the Pranhita, Wardha, Purna,
Manjra, Penganga, Wainganga.

21) Role of rivers in the economy (Any three)

• Development of civilization : Rivers have played role in the development of civilisation. Most
of the ancient civilisations like Indus, etc developed around the river.
• Development for agriculture : Rivers and their associated alluvial soils provide the most
productive agricultural lands of the country.
• Settlement : Most of the large cities are located on the banks of a river. Not only these rivers
provide water supplies but also they provide transportation.
• Industrial development : It has flourished along rivers. In many industries river water is used
as a coolant and for the generation of hydro electricity.
• Means of transportation : River provide primary channel of inland transportati

22) River Pollution

• The growing domestic, municipal and agricultural and industrial demand for water from
rivers naturally affects the quality of water. As a result more and more water is being drained
out of the rivers reducing their volume.
• A heavy load of untreated sewage and industrial effluents are emptied into the rivers. This
affects not only the quality of water but-also the self cleaning, capacity of rivers.
• The increasing urbanisation and industrialisation is also responsible for increasing pollution
level of many rivers.

23) (i) Ox-bow lakes : A meandering river across a floodplain forms cut-offs that later develops
into ox-bow lakes.
(ii) Salt water lake : Lakes in the region of inland drainage are sometimes seasonal; for
example, the Sambhar lake in Rajasthan, which is a salt water lake. Its water is used for
producing salt.
(iii) Man made lakes : Apart from natural lakes, the damming of the rivers for the generation of
hydel power has also led to the formation of lakes, such as Guru Gobind Sagar (Bhakra Nangal
Project).

24) The Brahmaputra River System

• The Brahmaputra rises in Tibet east of Mansarowar lake very close to the sources of the
Indus and the Satluj.
• It is slightly longer than the Indus, and most of its course lies outside India.
• It flows eastwards parallel to the Himalayas. On reaching the Namcha Barwa (7757 m), it
takes a ‘U’ turn and enters India in Arunachal Pradesh through a gorge.
• Here, it is called the Dihang and it is joined by the Dibang, the Lohit, and many other
tributaries to form the Brahmaputra in Assam.
• In Tibet, the river carries a smaller volume of water and less silt as it is a cold and a dry
area.
• In India, it passes through a region of high rainfall. Here the river carries a large volume of
water and considerable amount of silt.
• The Brahmaputra has a braided channel in its entire length in Assam and forms many
riverine islands.
• Every year during the rainy season, the river overflows its banks, causing widespread
devastation due to floods in Assam and Bangladesh.
