Question 1: Calculate the value of 9x² + 4y² if xy = 6 and 3x + 2y = 12.

Answer 1: Consider the equation 3x + 2y = 12

Now, square both sides:
(3x + 2y)² = 12²
=> 9x² + 12xy + 4y² = 144
=>9x² + 4y² = 144 – 12xy
From the questions, xy = 6
So,
9x² + 4y² = 144 – 72
Thus, the value of 9x² + 4y² = 72
Question 2:Evaluate the following using suitable identity
(102) ³
Answer 2: We can write 102 as 100+2
Using identity,(x+y) ³ = x ³ +y ³ +3xy(x+y)
(100+2) ³ =(100) ³ +2 ³ +(3×100×2)(100+2)
= 1000000 + 8 + 600(100 + 2)
= 1000000 + 8 + 60000 + 1200
= 1061208
Question 3:Without any actual division, prove that the following 2x⁴
– 5x³ + 2x² – x + 2 is divisible by x² – 3x + 2.
[Hint: Factorise x² – 3x + 2]
Answer 3: x²-3x+2
x²-2x-1x+2
x(x-2)-1(x-2)
(x-2)(x-1)
Therefore,(x-2)(x-1)are the factors.
Considering (x-2),
x-2=0
x=2
Then, p(x) becomes,
p(x)=2
p(x)=2x⁴-5x³+2x²-x+2
p(2)=2(2)⁴-5(2)³+2(2)²-2+2
=32-40+8
= -40+40=0
Therefore, (x-2) is a factor.
Considering (x-1),
x-1=0
x=1
Then, p(x) becomes,
p(x)=1
p(x)=2x⁴-5x³+2x²-x+2
p(1)=2(1)⁴-5(1)³+2(1)²-1+2
=2-5+2-1+2
=6-6
=0
Therefore, (x-1) is a factor.
Question 4: Using the Factor Theorem to determine whether g(x) is a factor of p(x) in the following
case
(i) p(x) = 2x³+x²–2x–1, g(x) = x+1
Answer 4:p(x) = 2x³+x²–2x–1, g(x) = x+1
g(x) = 0
⇒ x+1 = 0
⇒ x = −1
∴Zero of g(x) is -1.
Now,
p(−1) = 2(−1)³+(−1)²–2(−1)–1
= −2+1+2−1
=0
∴By the given factor theorem, g(x) is a factor of p(x).
Question 5: Obtain an example of a monomial and a binomial having degrees of 82 and 99,
respectively.
Answer 5: An example of a monomial having a degree of 82 = x⁸²
An example of a binomial having a required degree of 99 = x⁹⁹ + 7
Question 6: If the two x – 2 and x – ½ are the given factors of px²
+ 5x + r, show that p = r.
Answer 6: Given, f(x) = px²+5x+r and factors are x-2, x – ½
g1(x) = 0,
x–2=0
x=2
Substituting x = 2 in place of the equation, we get
f(x) = px²+5x+r
f(2) = p(2)²+5(2)+r=0
= 4p + 10 + r = 0 … eq.(i)
x–½=0
x=½
Substituting x = ½ in place of the equation, we get,
f(x) = px²+5x+r
f( ½ ) = p( ½ )² + 5( ½ ) + r =0
= p/4 + 5/2 + r = 0
= p + 10 + 4r = 0 … eq(ii)
On solving eq(i) and eq(ii),
We get,
4p + r = – 10 and p + 4r = – 10
the RHS of both equations are the same,
We get,
4p + r = p + 4r
3p=3r
p = r.
Hence Proved.

Question 8: Observe the value of the polynomial 5x – 4x² + 3 at x = 2 and x = –1.
Answer 8: Let the polynomial be f(x) = 5x – 4x² + 3
Now, for x = 2,
f(2) = 5(2) – 4(2)² + 3
=> f(2) = 10 – 16 + 3 = –3
Or, the value of the polynomial 5x – 4x² + 3 at x = 2 is -3.
Similarly, for x = –1,
f(–1) = 5(–1) – 4(–1)² + 3
=> f(–1) = –5 –4 + 3 = -6
The value of the polynomial 5x – 4x² + 3 at x = -1 is -6.
Question 9:Expanding each of the following, using all the suitable identities:
(i) (x+2y+4z)²
(ii) (2x−y+z)²
(iii) (−2x+3y+2z)²
(iv) (3a –7b–c)²
(v) (–2x+5y–3z)²
Answer 9: (i) (x+2y+4z)²
Using identity, (x+y+z)² = x²+²+z²+2xy+2yz+2zx
Here, x = x
y = 2y
z = 4z
(x+2y+4z)² = x²+(2y)²+(4z)²+(2×x×2y)+(2×2y×4z)+(2×4z×x)
= x²+4y²+16z²+4xy+16yz+8xz
(ii) (2x−y+z)²
Using identity, (x+y+z)² = x²+y²+z²+2xy+2yz+2zx
Here, x = 2x
y = −y
z=z
(2x−y+z)² = (2x)²+(−y)²+z²+(2×2x×−y)+(2×−y×z)+(2×z×2x)
= 4x²+y²+z²–4xy–2yz+4xz
(iii) (−2x+3y+2z)²
Using identity, (x+y+z)² = x²+y²+z²+2xy+2yz+2zx
Here, x = −2x
y = 3y
z = 2z
(−2x+3y+2z)² = (−2x)²+(3y)²+(2z)²+(2×−2x×3y)+(2×3y×2z)+(2×2z×−2x)
= 4x²+9y²+4z²–12xy+12yz–8xz
(iv) (3a –7b–c)²
Using identity (x+y+z)²= x²+y²+z²+2xy+2yz+2zx
Here, x = 3a
y = – 7b
z=–c
(3a –7b– c)² = (3a)²+(– 7b)²+(– c)²+(2×3a ×– 7b)+(2×– 7b ×– c)+(2×– c ×3a)
= 9a² + 49b² + c²– 42ab+14bc–6ca
(v) (–2x+5y–3z)²
Using identity, (x+y+z)² = x²+y²+z²+2xy+2yz+2zx
Here, x = –2x
y = 5y
z = – 3z
(–2x+5y–3z)² = (–2x)² + (5y)² + (–3z)² + (2 × –2x × 5y) + (2 × 5y× – 3z)+(2×–3z ×–2x)
= 4x²+25y² +9z²– 20xy–30yz+12zx
Question 10: If the polynomials az³ + 4z² + 3z – 4 and z³ – 4z + leave the same remainder when
divided by z – 3, find the value of a.
Answer 10: Zero of the polynomial,
g1(z) = 0
z-3 = 0
z=3
Hence, zero of g(z) = – 2a
Let p(z) = az³+4z²+3z-4
Now, substituting the given value of z = 3 in p(z), we get,
p(3) = a (3)³ + 4 (3)² + 3 (3) – 4
⇒p(3) = 27a+36+9-4
⇒p(3) = 27a+41
Let h(z) = z³-4z+a
Now, by substituting the value of z = 3 in h(z), we get,
h(3) = (3)³-4(3)+a
⇒h(3) = 27-12+a
⇒h(3) = 15+a
As per the question,
The two polynomials, p(z) and h(z), leave the same remainder when divided by z-3
So, h(3)=p(3)
⇒15+a = 27a+41
⇒15-41 = 27a – a
⇒-26 = 26a
⇒a = -1
Question 11: Compute the perimeter of a rectangle whose area is 25x² – 35x + 12.
Answer 11: Area of rectangle = 25x² – 35x + 12
We know the area of a rectangle = length × breadth
So, by factoring 25x² – 35x + 12, the length and breadth can be obtained.
25x² – 35x + 12 = 25x² – 15x – 20x + 12
=> 25x² – 35x + 12 = 5x(5x – 3) – 4(5x – 3)
=> 25x² – 35x + 12 = (5x – 3)(5x – 4)
Thus, the length and breadth of a rectangle are (5x – 3)(5x – 4).
So, the perimeter = 2(length + breadth)
Therefore, the perimeter of the given rectangle = 2[(5x – 3)+(5x – 4)]
= 2(5x – 3 + 5x – 4)
= 2(10x – 7)
= 20x – 14
Hence, the perimeter of the rectangle = 20x – 14
Question 12: 2x²+y²+²–2√2xy+4√2yz–8xz
Answer 12: Using identity, (x +y+z)² = x²+y²+z²+2xy+2yz+2zx
We can say that, x²+²+²+2xy+2yz+2zx = (x+y+z)²
2x²+y²+8z²–2√2xy+4√2yz–8xz
= (-√2x)²+(y)²+(2√2z)²+(2×-√2x×y)+(2×y×2√2z)+(2×2√2×−√2x)
= (−√2x+y+2√2z)²
= (−√2x+y+2√2z)(−√2x+y+2√2z)
Question 13: If ? + 2? is a factor of ? ⁵ – 4?²?³ + 2? + 2? + 3, find a.
Answer 13: According to the question,
Let p(x) = x ⁵ – 4a²x³ + 2x + 2a + 3 and g(x) = x + 2a
g(x) = 0
⟹ x + 2a = 0
⟹ x = – 2a
Hence, zero of g(x) = – 2a
As per the factor theorem,
If g(x) is a factor of p(x), then p( – 2a) = 0
So, substituting the value of x in p(x), we get,
p ( – 2a) = ( – 2a) ⁵ – 4a²( – 2a)³ + 2( – 2a) + 2a + 3 = 0
⟹ – 32a ⁵ + 32a ⁵ – 2a + 3 = 0
⟹ – 2a = – 3
⟹ a = 3/2
Question 14: Find the value of x³+ y ³ + z ³ – 3xyz if x² + y² + z² = 83 and x + y + z = 1
Answer 14: Consider the equation x + y + z = 15
From algebraic identities, we know that (a + b + c)² = a² + b² + c² + 2(ab + bc + ca)
So,
(x + y + z)² = x² + y² + z² + 2(xy + yz + xz)
From the question, x² + y² + z²= 83 and x + y + z = 15
So,
152 = 83 + 2(xy + yz + xz)
=> 225 – 83 = 2(xy + yz + xz)
Or, xy + yz + xz = 142/2 = 71
Using algebraic identity a³ + b³ + c³ – 3abc = (a + b + c)(a² + b² + c² – ab – bc – ca),
x ³ + y ³ + z ³ – 3xyz = (x + y + z)(x² + y² + z² – (xy + yz + xz))
Now,
x + y + z = 15, x² + y² + z² = 83 and xy + yz + xz = 71
So, x ³ + y ³ + z ³ – 3xyz = 15(83 – 71)
=> x ³ + y ³ + z ³ – 3xyz = 15 × 12
Or, x ³ + y ³ + z ³ – 3xyz = 180
Question 15:Verify that:
(i) x³+y³ = (x+y)(x²–xy+y²)
(ii) x³–y³ = (x–y)(x²+xy+y²)
Answer 15:(i) x³+y³ = (x+y)(x²–xy+y²)
We know that (x+y)³= x³+y³+3xy(x+y)
⇒ x³+y³ = (x+y)³–3xy(x+y)
⇒ x³+y³ = (x+y)[(x+y)²–3xy]
Taking (x+y) common ⇒ x³+y³ = (x+y)[(x²+y²+2xy)–3xy]
⇒ x³+y³ = (x+y)(x²+y²–xy)
(ii) x³–y³ = (x–y)(x²+xy+y²)
We know that (x–y)³ = x³–y³–3xy(x–y)
⇒ x³−y³ = (x–y)³+3xy(x–y)
⇒ x³−y³ = (x–y)[(x–y)²+3xy]
Taking (x+y) common ⇒ x³−y³ = (x–y)[(x²+y²–2xy)+3xy]
⇒ x³+y³ = (x–y)(x²+y²+xy)
Question 16: For what value of m is ?³ – 2??² + 16 divisible by x + 2?
Answer 16: According to the question,
Let p(x) = x³ – 2mx² + 16, and g(x) = x + 2
g(x) = 0
⟹x+2=0
⟹x=–2
Hence, zero of g(x) = – 2
As per the factor theorem,
if p(x) is divisible by g(x), then the remainder of p(−2) should be zero.
Thus, substituting the value of x in p(x), we obtain,
p( – 2) = 0
⟹ ( – 2)³ – 2m( – 2)² + 16 = 0
⟹ 0 – 8 – 8m + 16 = 0
⟹ 8m = 8
⟹m=1
Question 17:If a + b + c = 15 and a² + b² + c² = 83, find the value of a³ + b³ + c³ – 3abc.
Answer 17: We know that,
a³ + b³ + c³ – 3abc = (a + b + c)(a² + b² + c² – ab – bc – ca) ….(i)
(a + b + c)² = a² + b² + c² + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca ….(ii)
Given, a + b + c = 15 and a² + b² + c² = 83
From (ii), we have
152 = 83 + 2(ab + bc + ca)
⇒ 225 – 83 = 2(ab + bc + ca)
⇒ 142/2 = ab + bc + ca
⇒ ab + bc + ca = 71
Now, (i) can be written as
a³ + b³ + c³ – 3abc = (a + b + c)[(a² + b² + c² ) – (ab + bc + ca)]
a³ + b³+ c³ – 3abc = 15 × [83 – 71] = 15 × 12 = 180.
Question 18: Factorise: 27x³+y³+z³–9xyz
Answer 18: The expression27x³+y³+z³–9xyz can be written as (3x)³+y³+z³–3(3x)(y)(z)
27x³+y³+z³–9xyz = (3x)³+y³+z³–3(3x)(y)(z)
We know that x³+y³+³–3xyz = (x+y+z)(x²+y²+z²–xy –yz–zx)
27x³+y³+z³–9xyz = (3x)³+y³+z³–3(3x)(y)(z)
= (3x+y+z)[(3x)²+y²+z²–3xy–yz–3xz]
= (3x+y+z)(9x²+y²+²–3xy–yz–3xz)
Question 19: If (x – 1/x) = 4, then evaluate (x² + 1/x²) and (x⁴ + 1/x⁴).
Answer 19: Given, (x – 1/x) = 4
Squaring both sides, we get,
(x – 1/x)² = 16
⇒ x² – 2.x.1/x + 1/x² = 16
⇒ x² – 2 + 1/x² = 16
⇒ x² + 1/x² = 16 + 2 = 18
∴ (x² + 1/x²) = 18 ….(i)
Again, squaring both sides of (i), we get
(x² + 1/x²)² = 324
⇒ x⁴ + 2.x².1/x² + 1/x⁴= 324
⇒ x⁴ + 2 + 1/x⁴ = 324
⇒ x⁴ + 1/x⁴ = 324 – 2 = 322
∴ (x⁴ + 1/x⁴) = 322.
Question 20: Factorise
64m³–343n³
Answer 20: The expression 64m³–343n³ can be written as (4m)³–(7n)³
64m³–343n³ =(4m)³–(7n)³
We know that x³–y³ = (x–y)(x²+xy+y²)
64m³–343n³ = (4m)³–(7n)³
= (4m-7n)[(4m)²+(4m)(7n)+(7n)²]
= (4m-7n)(16m²+28mn+49n²)
Question 21: Find out the values of a and b so that (2x³ + ax² + x + b) has (x + 2) and (2x – 1) as
factors.
Answer 21: Let p(x) = 2x³ + ax² + x + b. Then, p( –2) = and p(½) = 0.
p(2) = 2(2)³ + a(2)² + 2 + b = 0
⇒ –16 + 4a – 2 + b = 0 ⇒ 4a + b = 18 ….(i)
p(½) = 2(½)³ + a(½)² + (½) + b = 0
⇒ a + 4b = –3 ….(ii)
On solving (i) and (ii), we get a = 5 and b = –2.
Hence, a = 5 and b = –2.
Question 22: Explain that p – 1 is a factor of p¹⁰ – 1 and p¹¹ – 1.
Answer 22: According to the question,
Let h(p) = ?¹⁰ − 1,and g(p) = ? – 1
zero of g(p) ⇒ g(p) = 0
p–1=0
p=1
Therefore, zero of g(x) = 1
We know that,
According to the factor theorem, if g(p) is a factor of h(p), then h(1) should be zero
So,
h(1) = (1) ¹⁰ − 1 = 1 − 1 = 0
⟹ g (p) is a factor of h(p).
Here, we have h(p) = ?¹¹ − 1, g (p) = ? – 1
Putting g (p) = 0 ⟹ ? − 1 = 0 ⟹ ? = 1
As per the factor theorem, if g (p) is a factor of h(p),
Then h(1) = 0
⟹ (1) ¹¹ – 1 = 0
Hence, g(p) = ? – 1 is the factor of h(p) = ? ¹⁰ – 1
Question 23: Examine whether (7 + 3x) is a factor of (3×3 + 7x).
Answer 23: Let p(x) = 3×3 + 7x and g(x) = 7 + 3x. Now g(x) = 0 ⇒ x = –7/3.
By the remainder theorem, p(x) is divided by g(x), and then the remainder is p(–7/3).
Now, p(–7/3) = 3(–7/3)3 + 7(–7/3) = –490/9 ≠ 0.
∴ g(x) is not a factor of p(x).
Question 24:Prove that:
x³+y³+z³–3xyz = (1/2) (x+y+z)[(x–y)²+(y–z)²+(z–x)²]
Answer 24: We know that,
x³+y³+z³−3xyz = (x+y+z)(x²+y²+z²–xy–yz–xz)
⇒ x³+y³+z³–3xyz = (1/2)(x+y+z)[2(x²+y²+z²–xy–yz–xz)]
= (1/2)(x+y+z)(2×2+2y²+²–2xy–2yz–2xz)
= (1/2)(x+y+z)[(x²+y²−2xy)+(y²+z²–2yz)+(x²+z²–2xz)]
= (1/2)(x+y+z)[(x–y)²+(y–z)²+(z–x)²]
Question 25: Find out which of the following polynomials has x – 2 a factor:
(i) 3?² + 6?−24.
(ii) 4?² + ?−2.
Answer 25: (i) According to the question,
Let p(x) =3?² + 6?−24 and g(x) = x – 2
g(x) = x – 2
zero of g(x) ⇒ g(x) = 0
x–2=0
x=2
Hence, zero of g(x) = 2
Thus, substituting the value of x in p(x), we get,
p(2) = 3(2)² + 6 (2) – 24
= 12 + 12 – 24
=0
the remainder = zero,
We can derive that,
g(x) = x – 2 is factor of p(x) = 3?² + 6?−24
(ii) According to the question,
Let p(x) = 4?² + ?−2 and g(x) = x – 2
g(x) = x – 2
zero of g(x) ⇒ g(x) = 0
x–2=0
x=2
Hence, zero of g(x) = 2
Thus, substituting the value of x in p(x), we get,
p(2) = 4(2)² + 2−2
= 16 ≠ 0
Since the remainder ≠ zero,
We can say that,
g(x) = x – 2 is not a factor of p(x) = 4?² + ?−2
Question 26: Factorise x² + 1/x² + 2 – 2x – 2/x.
Answer 26: x² + 1/x² + 2 – 2x – 2/x = (x² + 1/x² + 2) – 2(x + 1/x)
= (x + 1/x)² – 2(x + 1/x)
= (x + 1/x)(x + 1/x – 2).
Question 27: Factorise
8a³+b³+12a²b+6ab²
Answer 27: The expression, 8a³+b³+12a²b+6ab² can be written as (2a)³+b³+3(2a)²b+3(2a)(b)²
8a³+b³+12a²b+6ab² = (2a)³+b³+3(2a)²b+3(2a)(b)²
= (2a+b)³
= (2a+b)(2a+b)(2a+b)
Here, the identity, (x +y)³ = x³+y³+3xy(x+y) is used.
Question 28: By Remainder Theorem, find out the remainder when p(x) is divided by g(x), where
(i) p(?) = ?³ – 2?² – 4? – 1, g(?) = ? + 1
(ii) p(?) = ?³ – 3?² + 4? + 50, g(?) = ? – 3
(iii) p(?) = 4?³ – 12?² + 14? – 3, g(?) = 2? – 1
(iv) p(?) = ?³ – 6?² + 2? – 4, g(?) = 1 – 3/2 ?
Answer 28: (i) Given p(x) = ?³ – 2?² – 4? – 1 and g(x) = x + 1
Here zero of g(x) = – 1
By applying the remainder theorem
P(x) divided by g(x) = p( – 1)
P ( – 1) = ( – 1)³ – 2 ( – 1)² – 4 ( – 1) – 1 = 0
Therefore, the remainder = 0
(ii) given p(?) = ?³ – 3?² + 4? + 50, g(?) = ? – 3
Here zero of g(x) = 3
By applying the remainder theorem p(x) divided by g(x) = p(3)
p(3) = 3³ – 3 × (3)² + 4 × 3 + 50 = 62
Therefore, the remainder = 62
(iii) p(x) = 4x³ – 12x² + 14x – 3, g(x) = 2x – 1
Here zero of g(x) = ½
By applying the remainder theorem p(x) divided by g(x) = p (½)
P( ½ ) = 4( ½ )³ – 12( ½ )² + 14 ( ½ ) – 3
= 4/8 – 12/4 + 14/2 – 3
=½+1
= 3/2
Hence, the remainder = 3/2
(iv) p(?) = ?³ – 6?² + 2? – 4, g(?) = 1 – 3/2 ?
so, zero of g(x) = 2/3
By applying the remainder theorem p(x) divided by g(x) = p(2/3)
p(2/3) = (2/3)³ – 6(2/3)² + 2(2/3) – 4
= – 136/27
Therefore, the remainder = – 136/27
Question 29:Factorise x² – 1 – 2a – a².
Answer 29: x² – 1 – 2a – a² = x² – (1 + 2a + a²)
= x² – (1 + a)²
= [x – (1 – a)][x + 1 + a]
= (x – 1 – a)(x + 1 + a)
∴ x² – 1 – 2a – a² = (x – 1 – a)(x + 1 + a).
Question 30:Evaluate the following using suitable identity
(998)³
Answer 30: We can write 99 as 1000–2
Using identity,(x–y)³ = x³ –y³ –3xy(x–y)
(998)³ =(1000–2)³
=(1000)³ –2³ –(3×1000×2)(1000–2)
= 1000000000–8–6000(1000– 2)
= 1000000000–8- 6000000+12000
= 994011992
Question 31: Find the zeroes of the polynomial:
p(?)= (? –2)² −(? + 2)²
Answer 31: p(x) = (? –2)² −(? + 2)²
We know that,
Zero of the polynomial p(x) = 0
Hence, we get,
⇒ (x–2)² −(x + 2)² = 0
Expanding using the identity, a² – b² = (a – b) (a + b)
⇒ (x – 2 + x + 2) (x – 2 –x – 2) = 0
⇒ 2x ( – 4) = 0
⇒ – 8 x= 0
Therefore, the zero of the polynomial = 0
