4) In a triangle PQR

4) In a triangle PQR ,PQ=6cm,QR=8cm and PR=10.Then the length of the median bisecting the shortest side is (approx.)
a) 10 b) 8.5 c)9 d) NOT

ans:

The length is = sqrt (64 - 9) = sqrt(54)

so ans is D

How cum??

 

 "The lenght is=sqrt(64-9)=sqrt(54)"

How cum u got that??

i think answer to question 4

i think answer to question 4 is 8.5. it is sqrt(64+9)= sqrt(73)=8.5
triangle PQR is right angled at Q, so it should be sqrt(64+9) not sqrt(64-9)

3) A quadrilateral is inscribed in a circle

Soln.:
As each angle has 180 deg.
Total angle:180 x 4 - 180 x 2=360 deg.
So option (b) is correct....

Giv ur best to d world.
Nd d best will cm back to u...

Dipanjan.....

4) In a triangle PQR ,PQ=6cm,QR=8cm

Soln.:
        It is a right angle triangle..Whose hypotuse is 10cm.,Smallest side 6 cm.
        Draw d diagram...      
        Median=sqrt(9+64)=sqrt(73)=8.5(approx)
So option(b) is correct...

Giv ur best to d world.
Nd d best will cm back to u...

Dipanjan....

5)A square is inscribed in acircle

Soln. Plz draw d picture at first as per as my instruction otherwised u cant maintain d link...
Draw the triangle ABC..From point B draw d angle bisector nd allow it to cut at d point D of BC.(As we know incentre is d cuttin poin of the angle bisectors)
As it is an equilateral triangle dn angle bisector shud be MEDIAN( As,AB/AC=BD/DC=>BD=DC[As,AB+AC])
So,BD=CD=a/2.

We know:
AB x AC - BD x DC = BD^2
=>BD=Sqrt(3a^2/4)=Sqrt(3)/2 * a......(i)
If incentre is O.
Dn OD=1/3 x BD[Properties of MEDIAN]
=>OD=Sqrt(3)/6 * a

As it is d radius of d circle
Sqrt(2) x s = Sqrt(3)/6 x 2 x a[s is d length of d square]
=>Area=s^2=a^2/6

So Option (b) is correct...
If u have any doubts dn olz ask me...

Giv ur best to d world.
Nd d best will cm back to u...

Regards,
Dipanjan.....
