S1. Ans.(a)
AQ = AR = 7cm (Tangents from the same external point to the circle)
BR = BP = 8cm (Tangents from the same external point to the circle)
and
PC and QC = 6cm (Tangents from the same external point to the
circle)
The perimeter of triangle ABC
2(AQ + PC + BR) = 2(7 + 6 + 8) = 42cm
S2. Ans.(d)
In ∆POT
∠POT + ∠OTP + ∠TPO = 180
∠POT = 55°
∠POT and ∠SOQ = 55°
In ∆QOS
∠QOS + ∠OSQ + ∠SQO = 180
55° + x° + 66 = 180°
x = 59°

S6. Ans.(c)
S7. Ans.(c)
S8. Ans.(d)
S9. Ans.(c)
S10. Ans.(d)
AO = BC (Given)
OA = OB (Radius circle)
∠AOD is exterior angle of ∆AOC
∠AOC = 80 + 40 = 120°
S11. Ans.(b)
Sol.
S12. Ans.(b)
S13. Ans.(c)
Sol. Let the side of the triangle be x, x and y.
Case 1: (x + x = 2x =14 ) When both the sides are equal whose Sum is
given
|x – x|< Side < |x + x|
0 < a < 14
⟹ 13 triangles possible here.
Case 2: (x + y = 14) When both the sides are different
|x – x|< y < |x + x|
|x – x|< y < |2x|
|x – x|< y < |2 (14 – y)|
0 < y < |28-2y|
0 < 3y < |28|
0 < y < 9.33
Y can take value from 1 to 9 except 7, so, here y can take 8 value
13 + 8 = 21 triangles
S14. Ans.(a)
S15. Ans.(d)
S16. Ans.(a)
Sol. Using Stewart theorem (Simplified Form)
S17. Ans.(b)
Sol. From options
Apply Pythagoras theorem
(x² + 1)² = (x² – 1)² + (2x)²
⟹ (x² + 1)² – (x² – 1) = (2x)²
⟹ x
4 + 1 + 2×2 – x
4 – 1 + 2×2 = 4×2
⟹ 4×2 = 4×2
Hence, it is a right-angle triangle.
