SECTION B
21 (10)2 = (9 – x)2 + (8 – 2)2 ½
100 = 81 – 18x + x2 + 36 ½
x2 – 18x + 17 = 0 ½
x2 – 17x – x + 17 = 0
x(x – 17) – 1(x – 17) = 0
x = 17 , x = 1

22 Let the ratio be k : 1 and point on X-axis is (x, 0) ½
k (−5 ) +1(3) 1
0= k +1
-5k + 3 = 0
3
k= 5
so ratio is 3: 5 ½
OR
For perimeter of triangle find the lengths of sides
Distance AB2 =(0 – 1)2 + (0 – 0)2
½
BC2 = (1 – 0)0 + (0 – 1)2
½
AC2 = (0 – 0)2 + (1 – 0)2
½
So perimeter = 1 + 1 + √ 2 = 2 + √ 2

23 LCM of 48, 72 and 108 = 2 ×2 × 2× 2 × 3 × 3 × 3
= 432 1
Therefore, after 432 seconds, they will change simultaneously.
We know that 60 sec. = 1 min.
432
Therefore 432 sec. = 60 = 7 min. 12 sec. ½
Hence, the lights change simultaneously at 7:07:12 am ½

25 Let the angles be a0, (a + d)0 , (a + 2d)0 ½
Then, we get a + a + d + a + 2d = 180 and ½
a + 2d = 2a ½
after solving angles will be 400, 600, 800 ½
OR
We know that 18 is the first multiple of 9 lies between 10 and 300 and last multiple of 9 up ½
to 300 is 297.
an = a + (n – 1 )d
297 = 18 + (n – 1)9
297 – 18 = (n – 1)9 ½
n = 32 ½

SECTION C
26 Let√7 be a rational number.
∴√7=
½
, where q≠0 and p &q are coprime.
7q2= p2⟹p2 is divisible by 7
⟹p is divisible by 7-----(i)
⟹p=7a,where‘a’ is a positive integer
1
49a2=7q2⟹q2=7a2⟹q2 is divisible by 7
⟹q is divisible by 7-----(ii) 1
(i)and(ii)leadstocontradictionas‘p’and‘q’arecoprime. ½
∴√7 is an irrational number.

cos A +sin A+1+2 sin A 1
LHS = ( 1+sin A ) cos A
1+1+2 sin A
LHS = ( 1+ sin A ) cos A ½

29 Given 2 and – 3 are zeroes of x + (a + 1)x + b
2
On putting x = 2, we get
(2)2 + (a + 1)(2) + b = 0
½
4 + 2a + 2 + b = 0
2a + b = - 6 …….(i) ½
Again, on putting x = - 3, we get
(-3)2 + (a + 1)(-3) + b = 0
½
9 – 3a – 3 + b = 0
-3a + b = - 6 ………..(ii)
Solving (i) and (ii) we get ½
a = 0 and b = - 6
so a + b = -6 ½

30 Let one number be x.
Then, another number = (11- x)
According to question,
1 1 11
x + 11−x = 28
11−x + x 11
x(11−x ) = 28
11 11
x(11−x ) 28 =
x(11 – x ) = 28
x2 – 11x + 28 = 0
x = 4, x = 7
so two numbers are 4 and 7.
