∴ ar(ΔABF) =  ar(ABGE)

⇒ ar(ΔABF) = ar(ACDE)     ...(2)      [Using (1)]

It is known that the median of a triangle divides it into triangles with equal areas.∴ ar(ΔABF) = ar(ΔBCF)

ar(ΔBCF) =   ar(ACDE)          [Using (2)]

Statement-I: If two points lie in the same segment only, then the angles will be equal otherwise they are not equal.Statement-II: The larger chord is basically closer to the centre of the circle as compared to the shorter chord.Both statements are false.Hence, the correct answer is option D.

Solution 6  

If any line segment AB joining two points A and B, subtends equal angles at two other points C and D, lying on the same side of the linecontaining the line segment, then the four points A, B, C and D are concyclic.

Solution 7  

∴ ∠AOB = ∠COD = ∠EOF = 30°∠AOD = ∠AOB+ ∠BOC + ∠COD = 30° + 10° + 30° = 70°

It is clear that MD = 12 units and OM = 9 units.Using the Pythagoras theorem, we get OD = 15 units, which is the radius of the circle.

Solution 8  

Since a square has all the angles as right angles with the sum of pair of opposite angles equal to .Therefore, this quadrilateral will act as a cyclic quadrilateral when circumscribed by a circle.Thus, the required number of circles is one.

Solution 9  

The diameter of the given circle is 10 cm.Therefore, the radius, OA = OB = 5 cm = AB

OAB is equilateral triangle.

Solution 10  

We know that the angle in a semi-circle is a right angle.∴ ∠AEC = 90°Applying angle sum property of triangles in ΔAEC, we get∠AEC + ∠EAC + ∠ECA = 180°⇒ 90° + 68° + ∠ECA = 180°⇒ ∠ECA = 22°Therefore, ∠ACD = ∠ECA + ∠ECD = 22° + 46° = 68°It is also known that the angles in the same segment are equal.∴ ∠ABD = ∠ACD = 68°.

The probability of getting all heads if two coins (Possible outcomes = HH, HT, TH, TT) are tossed is b

Hence, the correct answer is option D. 

Solution 4  

The prime numbers and their possible appearances are given below:2: (1, 1)3: (1, 2), (2, 1)5: (1, 4), (2, 3), (3, 2), (4, 1)7: (1, 6), (2, 5), (3, 4), (4, 3), (5, 2), (6, 1)11: (5, 6), (6, 5)The total possible outcomes are 36.Therefore, the required probability is Hence, the correct answer is option A.

Solution 5  

Consider the experiment of tossing two coins.There are four possible outcomes, which are:Face on 1st coin Face on 2nd coin

Head HeadHead TailTail HeadTail Tail

∴ Sample space = {(Head, Head); (Head, Tail); (Tail, Head); (Tail, Tail)}Thus, the sample space of the experiment given in alternative B is incorrect.Hence, the correct answer is option B.

Solution 6  

Since, all the denominations i.e. Rs 1, Rs 2, Rs 5 and Rs 10 are the factors of 10.Therefore, the event of getting a coin being a factor of 10 is a sure event.And the probability of a sure event is 1.

Solution 7  

Total number of cricket matches the two teams had played = 75Number of matches won by team A = 41Number of matches lost by team A = 27Therefore, number of matches which were drawn = 75 − (41 + 27) = 7Thus, the experimental probability that the next cricket match between the two teams will result in a draw =

Total number of youths = 100Number of youths whose hobby is reading magazines = 25

Thus, experimental probability that the hobby of a randomly selected youth from the locality is reading magazines =

Number of throws of dice = 1000Number of times even numbers appeared = 124 + 144 + 90 = 358∴ Required probability 

Solution 10  

Total number of employees working in the office = 69Number of employees found to be vegetarian = 15∴ Number of employees found to be non-vegetarian = 69 − 15 = 54Thus, the experimental probability that an employee selected at random in the office is non-vegetarian is .
