Let the length of rectangle = x m.
and breadth = y m, and area of rectangle = xy.
∴ Perimeter = 2 (x + y) = 120
⇒ x + y = 60
…(i)
After change
New length = (x – 5) m
New breadth = (y + 5) m
Therefore increased area = 75 m2
⇒ (x – 5) (y + 5) – xy = 75
⇒ xy – 5y + 5x – 25 – xy = 75
⇒ 5x – 5y = 100
⇒ x – y = 20
..(ii)
Solving Eq. (i) and Eq. (ii), we get x = 40 m and y = 2
20 m.

A pharmacist needs to strengthen a 15% alcoholic solution to one of 32% alcohol. How
much pure alcohol should be added to 800 ml of 15% solution?
(a) 600 ml
(b) 800 ml
(c) 400ml
(d) 200 ml
Solution:
Quantity of pure alcohol in 800 ml of 15% solution
= 15% of 800
=
15
× 800 = 120 ml.
100
Suppose that x ml of pure alcohol is added to the 15% solution to get 32% alcoholic
solution.
∴ New volume of the solution
ion = (800 + x) ml.
∴ Quantity of pure alcohol in (800 + x) ml of 32% solution = (120 + x) ml,

∴ 32% of (800 + x) = (120 + x)
⇒
32
( 800 + x ) = (120 + x )
100
⇒ 32(800 + x) = 100(120 + x)
⇒ 25600 + 32x = 12000 + 100x
⇒ 68x = 13600 ⇒ x = 200 ml
∴ 200 ml of pure alcohol should be added.

A number consists of two digits. The digit at ten’s place is three time the digit at unit’s
place. The number formed by reversing the digits is 54 less than the original number.
Find the number?
(a) 91
(b) 92
(c) 93
(d) 94
Solution:
Let the digit at units place be = x
Therefore digit at ten’s place = 3x
∴ Number = 10(3x) + x = 31 x
New number by reversing the digits = 10x + 3x = 13x
According to given condition we get
31x – 13x = 54
⇒
18x = 54 ⇒ x = 3
∴ Digit at unit place = 3 digit at ten’s place = 3 × 3 = 9
∴ Number = 93

The angles of a triangle are 5(x –1), 3(2x –5) and 9x. Name the triangle.
(a) isosceles triangle
(b) equilateral triangle
(c) right angled triangle
(d) isosceles right angled triangle
Solution:
We know that sum of three angles of a triangle is 1800. Three angles are
5(x – 1), 3(2x – 5) and 9x.
∴ 5(x – 1) + 3(2x – 5) + 9x = 1800
⇒ 5x – 5 + 6x – 15 + 9x = 1800

or 450, 450, 900
∴ It is a isosceles right angled triangle.

Given : ABCD is a square and CDE is a quadrilateral triang

∠ DAE = 150 and AE = BE.
Proof: In the ∆ ADE and the ∆ BCE
AD = BC
DE = CE
and
(sides of a square)
(sides of the equilateral triangle)
∠ ADE = ∠ BCE = 900 + 600 = 1500
(since ∠ ADC = ∠ BCE = 900 and ∠ EDC = ∠ ECD = 600)
∴
∆ADE ≅ ∆BCE
∴
AE = BE
(c.p.c.t.e.)
Now in the ∆ADE ,
∠ ADE = ∠ ADC + ∠ CDE
∴
∠ADE = 900 + 600 = 1500
∴
∠DAE + ∠DEA = 1800 − 1500 = 300

To Prove : ar ( ∆ABC ) = 3 ar ( ∆AGB )
Proof : In the DABC,
ar ( ∆ADB ) = ar ( ∆ADC )
(1)
ar ( ∆BAE) = ar ( ∆BCE)
(2)
ar ( ∆BCF ) = ar ( ∆ACF )
(3)
(A median divides the triangles into two parts of equal area).
In the DBCG, DC is a median.
∴
ar ( ∆GBD) = ar ( ∆GDC )
(4)
Subtracting Eq. (4) from Eq. (1)
ar ( ∆ABD) − ar ( ∆GBD) = ar ( ∆ADC ) − ar ( ∆GDC )
∴
ar ( ∆ABG ) = ar ( ∆AGC )
Similarly ar ( ∆ABG ) = ar ( ∆BGC )
(5)
… (6)
Comparing Eq. (5) and Eq. (6)
ar ( ∆AGC ) = ar ( ∆BGC ) = ( ∆AGB )
As
ar ( ∆ABC ) = ar ( ∆ABG ) + ar ( ∆ACG ) + ar ( ∆BGC )

th of its volume is immersed in water.
4
Its density in kg m–3 is.
(a) 250
(b) 0.75
(c) 0.25
(d) 750
Solution:(d)
According to the principle of floatation,
Weight of the substance = Weight of the liquid displaced
volume × Density × g =
3
× 1000 × g = 750

(b) 1.8 g/cm–3
(c) 0.6 g/cm–3
