KEY NOTES:-

 For any linear equation, each solution (x, y) corresponds to a point on the line. General
form is given by ax + by + c = 0.
 The graph of a linear equation is a straight line.
 Two linear equations in the same two variables are called a pair of linear equations in
two variables. The most general form of a pair of linear equations is: a1x + b1y + c1 =
0; a2x + b2y + c2 = 0
where a1, a2, b1, b2, c1 and c2 are real numbers, such that a12 + b12 ≠ 0, a22 + b22 ≠ 0.
 A pair of values of variables ‘x’and ‘y’ which satisfy both the equations in the given
system of equations is said to be a solution of the simultaneous pair of linear equations.
 A pair of linear equations in two variables can be represented and solved, by
(i) Graphical method
(ii) Algebraic method

Q.4. A scale drawing of an object is the same shape at the object but a different size.
The scale of a drawing is a comparison of the length used on a drawing to the length
it represents. The scale is written as a ratio. The ratio of two corresponding sides in
similar figures is called the scale factor

Scale factor= length in image / corresponding length in object


If one shape can become another using revising, then the shapes are similar. Hence,
two shapes are similar when one can become the other after a resize, flip, slide or turn.

CASE STUDY 1 :

Sundial
There is no Sunrise or Sunset at the polar regions as we experience at lower latitudes. The
Sun appears above the horizon in Summer and makes a 360° circle in the sky - over a period
of 187 days at the North Pole 90° North latitude. And in winter, the Sun is below the horizon
for 163 days of darkness. It's not exactly six months of darkness/sunlight at the poles.

A sundial is a device that tells the time of day when there is sunlight by the apparent position
of the Sun in the sky. It consists of a flat plate and a gnomon (vertical stick) which casts a
shadow onto the dial. To setup a sundial at any place on the earth, inclination of its gnomon is
decided by respective latitude but on the pole a simple vertical stick serves the purpose. At

59
poles in summer sun makes a 360° circle in the sky in every 24 hours so gnomon’s shadow
makes one complete circle on its dial. Now a day’s digital sundials are also available which
shows time in digits using sunlight. Pictures of classical sundial and digital sundial are given
below.

Digital sundial Classical sundial

Q 1: A sundial is placed at the north pole during summer , what shape will gnomon’s

shadow complete in 24 hours ?

Q3. At north pole, how much time is required for the angle of rotation to be 180° ?
(a) 24 hrs (b) 18 hrs (c) 12 hrs (d) 15 hrs
Q4. What will be the angle of rotation in 9 hours ?
(a) 125 (b) 135° (c) 140° (d) 120°
Q5. If the time is 9:00 hrs when angle of rotation is 135°, what will be the time when
angle of rotation is 180° .

KEY POINTS TO REMEMBER:


1. The difference between experimental probability and theoretical probability.
2. The theoretical (classical) probability of an event E, written as P(E), is defined as
P (E) = Number of outcomes favourable to E
Number of all possible outcomes of the experiment
where we assume that the outcomes of the experiment are equally likely.
3. The probability of a sure event (or certain event) is 1.
4. The probability of an impossible event is 0.
5. The probability of an event E is a number P(E) such that
0 ≤ P (E) ≤ 1
6. An event having only one outcome is called an elementary event. The sum of the
probabilities of all the elementary events of an experiment is 1.
7. For any event E, P (E) + P (𝐸̅ ) = 1, where 𝐸̅ stands for ‘not E’. E and 𝐸̅ are called
complementary events.

(ASSERTION TYPES)

1. Ans: we know that if a line is parallel to one side of a triangle then it divides the other two
sides in the same ratio.This is basic proportionality theorem.so reason is correct.

By Basic proportionality theorem

𝐴𝐷 𝐴𝐸
= 𝐸𝐶
𝐷𝐵

𝑋 𝑋+2
𝑋−2
= 𝑋−1

On Solving x=4

So assertion is correct

Correct option is (a) both assertion (A) and reason(R) is the correct explanation of assertion
(A)

2. Ans.If a line divides any two sides of a triangle in the same ratio then it is parallel to the
third side. This is the converse of the Basic proportionality theorem.

So reason is correct.

𝐴𝐷 𝐴𝐸
Therefore =
𝐷𝐵 𝐸𝐶

4 8
𝑋−4
= 3𝑋−19

On Solving x=11

So assertion is correct

88
Correct option is (b)

3. Ans: If a line divides any two sides of a triangle in the same ratio then it is parallel to the
third side. This is the converse of the Basic proportionality theorem.

So reason is correct.

𝐴𝐷 5.7 57 3
Therefore = = =
𝐷𝐵 9.5 95 5

𝐴𝐸 4.8 3
𝐸𝐶
= 8
=5

𝐴𝐷 𝐴𝐸
𝐷𝐵
= 𝐸𝐶

So. DE II BC

So assertion is not correct

Correct option is (d)

4. Ans: If a line is parallel to one side of a triangle then it divides the other two sides in the
same ratio.This is basic proportionality theorem. So reason is correct

DB=10.8-6.3=4.5 and AE=9.6-4=5.6

𝐴𝐷 6.3 7
= =5
𝐷𝐵 4.5

𝐴𝐸 5.6 7
=4 =5
𝐸𝐶

𝐴𝐷 𝐴𝐸
= 𝐸𝐶
𝐷𝐵

So DE II BC

So assertion is correct

Correct option is (b)

5. Ans: We know that the ratio of the areas of two similar triangles is equal to the square of
the ratio of their corresponding sides.

So reason is correct

𝑎𝑟(𝐴𝐵𝐶) 𝐴𝐵2
𝑎𝑟(𝐷𝐸𝐹)
= 𝐷𝐸 2

89
16 𝐴𝐵2
49
= 𝐷𝐸 2

𝐴𝐵 4
=
𝐷𝐸 7

So assertion is correct

Correct option is (a)

6. Ans: We know that if a line is parallel to one side of a triangle then it divides the other
two sides in the same ratio. This is basic proportionality theorem. So, reason is correct.

By Basic proportionality theorem

𝐴𝐷 𝐴𝐸
=
𝐷𝐵 𝐸𝐶

𝐷𝐵 𝐸𝐶
𝐴𝐷
+ 1 = 𝐴𝐸 + 1

On Solving

𝐴𝐷 𝐴𝐸
= 𝐴𝐶
𝐴𝐵

So assertion is correct

Correct option is (a)

7. Ans. If the square of one side is equal to the sum of squares of other two sides, then the
angle opposite to the largest side is right angle.

So, reason is correct

Now AB2 +BC2 =242+72=625=AC2

AB2 +BC2 =AC2

So, by converse of Pythagoras theorem  ABC is a right angle triangle.

So assertion is correct

Correct option is (a)

8. If in a triangle square of one side is equal to the sum of the squares of other two sides then
the angle opposite the first side is a right angle

So reason is correct

90
So, AB2 = 2AC2= AC2 + AC2

=BC2 + AC2

AB2 = BC2 + AC2

By converse of Pythagoras theorem,  ABC is a right angle triangle.

So assertion is also correct

Correct option is (a).

9. ANS : If in a triangle square of one side is equal to the sum of the squares of other two
sides then the angle opposite the first side is a right angle

So reason is correct

AB2 = BC2 + AC2[AB=AC]

AB2 = 2AC2

So assertion is also correct.

Correct option is (b).

10. ANS : We know that If in a triangle, square of one side is equal to the sum of the squares
of the other two sides, then the angle opposite the first side is a right angle.

So reason is correct.

Now AB2=(6√3)2=108

AC2=(12)2=144

BC2=(6)2=36

AC2 = BC2 + AB2

By converse of Pythagoras theorem B = 900

So, assertion is also correct.

Correct option is (a)
