20. Harish was a student of 9th class. Once his birthday party was arranged in restaurant.
He got a playing top (lattu) as his birthday present, which surprisingly had no colour
on it. He wanted to colour it with his crayons.
The top is shaped like a cone surmounted by a hemisphere as shown in the figure.
The entire top of each lattu is 5 cm in height and the diameter of the top is 3.5 cm.
Rashid wants to colour the hemispherical part by red colour and the conical part by
green colour.
Answer the following questions:
OR
Find the ratio of the curved surface areas of two cones if their diameters of the bases
are equal and slant heights are in the ratio 4 : 3.
21. ABCD is a rectangle in which diagonal AC bisects A as well as C. Show that ABCD
is a square.
Section C
23. Find at least 3 solutions for the following linear equation in two variables:
2x + 5y = 13
OR
The production of oil (in lakh tonnes) in some of the refineries in India during 1982
was given below:
Construct a bar graph to represent the above data so that the bars are drawn
horizontally.
25. Two chords AB and CD of lengths 5 cm and 11 cm respectively of a circle are parallel
to each other and are on opposite sides of its centre. If the distance between AB and
CD is 6, find the radius of the circle.
27. Let R1 and R2 are the remainders when the polynomials x3 + 2x2 - 5ax - 7 and x3+ ax2-
12x + 6 are divided by x + 1 and x - 2 respectively. If 2R1 + R2 = 6, find the value of a.
Section D
28. ABCD is a trapezium, in which AB DC, BD is a diagonal and E is the mid-point of AD.
A line is drawn through E, parallel to AB intersecting BC at F (See figure). Show that F
is the mid-point of BC. [4]
29. The circular park of radius 20 m is situated in a colony. Three boys Ankur, Syed and
David are sitting at equal distance on its boundary each having a toy telephone in his
hands to talk each other. Find the length of the string of each phone. [5]
30. Read the text carefully and answer the questions: [10]
Peter, Kelvin James, Reeta and Veena were students of Class 9th B at Govt. Sr. Sec
School, Sector 5, Gurgaon.
Once the teacher told Peter to think a number x and to Kevin to think another
number y so that the difference of the numbers is 10 (x > y).
Now the teacher asked James to add double of Peter's number and that three times
of Kevin's number, the total was found 120.
Reeta just entered in the class, she did not know any number.
The teacher said Reeta to form the 1st equation with two variables x and y.
Now Veena just entered the class so the teacher told her to form 2nd equation with
two variables x and y.
Now teacher Told Reeta to find the values of x and y. Peter and kelvin were told to
verify the numbers x and y.
