Question - 1

To divide a line segment AB in the ratio 5:7, first a ray AX is drawn, so that BAX is an acute angle and  then at equal distances points are marked on the ray AX such that the minimum number of these points is

  • A 8
  • B 10
  • C 11
  • D 12

Question - 2

To divide a line segment AB in the ratio 4:7, a ray AX is drawn first such that ∠BAX is an acute angle and then points  are located at equal distances on the ray AX and the point is joined to

  • A A12
  • B A11
  • C A10 
  • D A9

Question - 3

To divide a line segment AB in the ratio 5:6, draw a ray AX such that BAX is an acute angle, then draw a ray BY parallel to AX and the points  and  are located to equal distances on ray AX and BY, respectively. Then, the points joined are

  • A A5 and B6
  • B A6 and B5
  • C A4 and B5
  • D A5 and B4

Question - 4

o construct a triangle similar to a given DABC with its sides 3/7  of the corresponding sides of DABC, first draw a ray BX such that ∠CBX is an acute angle and lies on the opposite side of with respect to BC. Then, locate points  on BX at equal distances and next step is to join

  • A B10 to C
  • B B3 to C
  • C B7 to C 
  • D B4 to C

Question - 5

draw a ray BX such that ÐCBX is an acute angle and is on the opposite side of with respect to BC. The minimum number of points to be located at equal distances on ray BX is

  • A 5
  • B 8
  • C 13
  • D 3

Question - 6

To draw a pair of tangents to a circle which are inclined to each other at an angle of 60°, it is required to draw tangents at end points of those two radii of the circle, the angle between them should be

  • A 135°
  • B 90°
  • C 60°
  • D 120°

Question - 7

  • A 1:1
  • B 3:2
  • C 3:5
  • D 2:3

Question - 8

 

The figure given below has been constructed by following the steps given below.
I : Draw a ray AX making an acute angle with a given side AB of ΔABC on the opposite side of vertex C.
II : Locate 3 points A1, A2, A3 on the line AX such that AA1 = A1A2 = A2A3 . Join BA3 .
III : Draw a line through A2 parallel ti BA3 to intersect AB at point b’ . Draw a line through B’ parallel to the line BC to intersect AC at C’.

Then , ΔAB’C’ and ΔABC are

  • A similar
  • B congruent
  • C equal in area
  • D none of the above
