Class 9 Mathematics – Unit Test (Advanced)

Chapter: Triangles
Time: 1 Hour
Maximum Marks: 50

Section A: 1-Mark Questions (6 × 1 = 6 Marks)


• State the converse of the Isosceles Triangle Theorem.
• What is the minimum information required to prove two triangles are congruent using
RHS?
• Define the term ‘congruent triangles’.
• If two angles of a triangle are equal, what can you say about the sides opposite to those
angles?
• Write the condition when the HL (Hypotenuse-Leg) congruence rule is applicable.
• Can two triangles be congruent if only two sides are equal? Justify briefly.

Section B: 2-Mark Questions (5 × 2 = 10 Marks)


• In triangle ABC, AB = AC and the bisector of ∠B and ∠C meet at point P inside the
triangle. Prove that BP = CP.
• State and explain why AAA is not a valid congruence criterion with a counter-example.
• In ∆XYZ and ∆LMN, XY = LM, YZ = MN and ∠Y = ∠M. Prove that ∆XYZ ≅ ∆LMN.
• The angles of a triangle are in the ratio 1:1:2. Prove that it is a right-angled triangle.
• In an isosceles triangle, prove that the altitude from the vertex to the base bisects the
base and the angle at the vertex.

Section C: 3-Mark Questions (4 × 3 = 12 Marks)


• Prove that if two sides of a triangle are unequal, the greater angle lies opposite the longer
side.
• In triangle ABC, D and E are points on AB and AC respectively such that DE || BC. Prove
that ∆ADE ~ ∆ABC.
• In ∆ABC, angle B = angle C and AB = AC. Prove that triangle ABC is equilateral.
• Two triangles have two sides and the included angle equal respectively. The third sides
are not equal. Are the triangles congruent? Explain with reason.

Section D: 5-Mark Questions (4 × 5 = 20 Marks)


• In ∆ABC, AD is a median. Prove that if AB = AC, then ∠ABD = ∠ACD.
• Prove the SAS Congruence Theorem. Then use it to prove that the diagonals of a
rhombus bisect each other at right angles.
• In triangle PQR, M and N are midpoints of PQ and PR. Prove that MN is parallel to QR
and MN = 1/2 QR using triangle properties.
• Prove that in a triangle, angles opposite to unequal sides are unequal and the greater
angle lies opposite the longer side.

Instructions:
• Answer all questions.
• Draw diagrams wherever necessary to support your answer.
• State the name of any theorem used clearly.
• Maintain proper steps and justification for full marks.
