13. In Mathematics, relations can be expressed in various ways. The

matchstick patterns are based on linear relations. Different strategies
can be used to calculate the number of matchsticks used in different
figures.

One such pattern is shown below. Observe the pattern and answer the
following questions using Arithmetic Progression :

Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 3

(a) Write the AP for the number of triangles used in the figures. Also,
write the nth term of this AP. 2

(b) Which figure has 61 matchsticks ? 2

14. Gadisar Lake is located in the Jaisalmer district of Rajasthan. It was

built by the King of Jaisalmer and rebuilt by Gadsi Singh in 14th century.
The lake has many Chhatris. One of them is shown below :

Observe the picture. From a point A h m above from water level, the
angle of elevation of top of Chhatri (point B) is 45 and angle of
depression of its reflection in water (point C) is 60 . If the height of
Chhatri above water level is (approximately) 10 m, then

(a) draw a well-labelled figure based on the above information; 2

(b) find the height (h) of the point A above water level.
