Preface

This book hopes to develop and deep-root interest in learners in mathematics. The fun in learning mathematics is possible only when there is right co-ordination between the learners and the facilitators. It can helps us raise the curiosity to emancipate the bundle of mysteries of the world.

Mathematics is the most essential discipline among so many subjects. So, the strong foundation is necessary to be built up. The learner will find the content in this book interesting to practice and certainly find it useful in day to day life.

The exercises at design as per the curriculum of CDC of Nepal in a very simple language and in clear an concise form. Complete theory in each chapter, figures, notes, tables are the key component of this book. Simple but different techniques, sufficient project works and practice sets bind both the learners and facilitators for easy preparation of National Examination Board or any other examination.

KEDC will like to extent it heartfelt thanks to Mr. Ghanashyam Dhakal for his emmance help and contribution in producing such wonderful books.

Constructive suggestion for further improvement are heartily apperciated.

In previous grades, we have learnt about types of set, set relation, Venn- diagrams, operation of sets and simple problems of two sets by using Venn- diagrams. Now we will review some general problems related to basic concepts of set and further more we will study here word problems related to two or three sets by using Venn- diagrams.

School Mathematics Book - 102

Cardinality of set: The number of distinct elements present in the set is called cardinality. If A is a finite set then the number of elements in set A is denoted by n(A) which is the cardinal number of the set A. Thus, if A = {a,e,i,o,u}, then n(A) = 5

Use of Venn- diagram to find the number of elements in setCardinality relation two intersecting sets A and B with following informationn(A) = Number of elements in set A.n(B) = Number of elements in set B.Let, x = Number of elements in set A only.

= no(A) i.e. only in A not in B= n( A – B)= n(A) – n (A ∩ B)

y = Number of common elements of sets A and B = n (A ∩ B)z = Number of elements in set B only. = no(B) i.e. only in B not in A = n( B – A) = n(B) – n (A ∩ B)Now, n(A ∪ B) = x + y + z

= n(A) – n (A ∩ B) + n (A ∩ B) + n(B) – n (A ∩ B){ From the above relation }= n(A) + n(B) – n (A ∩ B)

Hence, 1. Number of elements lying in at least one of A and B. n(A ∪ B) = n(A) + n(B) – n (A ∩ B) or, n(A ∪ B) = no (A) + no(B) + n (A ∩ B) or, n(A ∪ B) = n(U) – n ( A ∪B )2. Number of elements lying in both A and B. n (A ∩ B) = n(A) + n(B) - n(A ∪ B) or, (A ∩ B) = n(A ∪B) - no(A) - no(B)3. Number of elements of A only. n(A-B ) = n(A ∪B) - n(B) or, no (A) = n(A) - n (A ∩B)

4. Number of elements of B only.n(B - A ) = n(A ∪B) - n(A)or, no (B) = n(B) - n (A ∩ B)

5. Number of elements of exactly one set no (A) + no (B)= n(A ∪ B) - n (A ∩ B)

6. Number of elements not in A and B. n ( A ∪ B ) = n (∪) – n(A ∪ B)7. Total number of elements under consideration

n(U) = n(A ∪ B) + n ( A ∪ B ) or, n (U) = n (A) + n (B)- n (A ∩ B) + n ( A ∪ B )

8. If the universal set contains only the elements of sets A and B , thenn ( A ∪ B ) = 0 , So, n(U) = n(A ∪ B)

Cardinality relations of union of three setsLet A , B and C be three overlapping subsets of universal set U. Then, the cardinal number of sets A, B and C are denoted by n(A), n(B) and n(C) respectively. Besides using the notations as in case of two sets, the number of elements in the union of three sets is denoted by n (A∪B∪C).n(A ∪ B ∪ C) = n {A ∪ (B ∪ C)} = n(A) + n(B ∪ C) - n{A ∩ (B ∪ C)}

= n (A) + n(B) + n(C) - n(B ∩ C) - n{(A ∩ B) ∪ (A ∩ C)}= n (A) + n (B) + n(C) - n(B ∩ C) - {n(A ∩ B) + n (A ∩ C) - n (A ∩ B) ∩ (A ∩ C)}= n (A) +n(B) + n(C) - n(B ∩ C) - n(A ∩ B) - n (A ∩ C) + n(A ∩ B ∩ C)∴ n(A ∪ B ∪ C) = n(A) + n(B) + n(C) - n(A ∩ B) - n(B ∩ C) -n(C ∩ A) + n(A ∩ B ∩ C)

Also,n(A ∪ B ∪ C) = no (A) + no(B) + n0 (C) + n0 (A ∩ B) +n0 (B ∩ C) +n0 (C ∩ A) + n(A ∩ B ∩ C) The relation given below are also equally applicable on solving problems. So keep these relation on your mind too.n(A) = n0 (A) + n0(A ∩B) + n0 (A ∩C) + n(A ∩B ∩C)n(B) = n0 (B) + n0(A ∩B) + n0 (B ∩C) + n(A ∩B ∩C)

n(C) = n0 (C) + n0(A ∩C) + n0 (B ∩C) + n(A ∩B ∩C)n(A) = n0 (A) - n (A ∩B) - n(A ∩C) + n(A ∩B ∩C)n0(B) = n(B) - n (A ∩B) - n(B ∩C) + n(A ∩B ∩C)n0(C) = n(C) - n (B ∩C) - n(A ∩C) + n(A ∩B ∩C)n(A ∩B) = n0 (A ∩B) + n (A ∩B ∩C) n(B ∩C) = n0 (B ∩C) + n (A ∩B ∩C)n(A ∩C) = n0 (A ∩C) + n (A ∩B ∩C) n0(A ∩B) = n(A ∩B) - n (A ∩B ∩C)n0(B ∩C) = n (B ∩C) - n (A ∩B ∩C)n0(A ∩C) = n(A ∩C) - n (A ∩B ∩C)

n( A ∪B ∪C ) =n(U) - n(A ∪B ∪C)

Example 1 : If n(U) = 100, n(A) = 60, n(B) = 65, n( A ∩B ) = 30find : a. n(A ∪B)

b. n(A ∩B) c. n0(B)

Solution: We have, n(U) = 100, n(A) = 60, n(B) = 65 and n( A ∪B ) = 30We know, a. n(A∪B) = n(U) - n( A ∪B ) = 100 - 30 = 70

Also, b. n(A∪B) = n(A) +n(B) - n(A∩B)or, n(A∩B) = n(A) + n(B) -n(A∪B)

= 60 + 65 - 70 = 125 - 70 = 55

Again, c. n0(B) = n(B) - n(A∩B) = 65 - 55 = 10

Worked Out Examples

School Mathematics Book - 10 5

Example 2 : If n(U) = 60 , n(A) = 25 , n(B) = 35 and n(A ∩B) = 5 , find n(A-B), n(B-A), n(A ∪B) and n( A ∪B ) . Find the maximum value of n(A∪B) and maximum value of n(A ∩B) if A ⊂B.Solution : Here, n (U) = 60, n (A) = 25, n (B) = 35 and n (A∩B) = 5 n( A – B ) = n(A) – n(A ∩B) = 25 – 5 = 20n( B – A ) = n(B) – n(A∩B) = 35 – 5 = 30n(A∪B) = n(A) + n(B) - n(A∩B) = 25 + 35 – 5 = 55n( A ∪B ) = n(U) - n(A∪B) = 60 – 55 = 5

If A ⊂B, then A∪B = B and A∩B = A

So, maximum value of n(A∪B) = 35 and maximum value of n(A ∩B) = n(A) = 25

Example 3: In a survey report of 1500 students of a school, 600 liked tea, 750 liked coffee and 430 liked both drinks. Find the number of students who like neither of the two drinks. Show the above information in Venn – diagram.

Solution: Let U = Set of all surveyed students, T = Set of tea likers, C = Set of coffee likers

We have, Total number of students n(U) = 1500 Number of students who liked tea, n(T) = 600Number of students who liked coffee, n(C) = 750Number of students who liked both tea and coffee, n(T∩C) = 430Number of students who did not like tea and coffee, n( T ∪C ) = ?We know,

n(T ∪C) = n(T) +n(C) - n(T ∩C) = 600 + 750 – 430 = 1350 – 430 = 920

∴n( T ∪C ) = n(U) - n(T ∪ C) = 1500 – 920 = 580

∴The number of students who liked neither of the two drinks is 580.

Example 4 : In a survey of workers in a factory, 70% liked football and 50% liked volleyball. If there were no workers who did not like both games then.

i. Present the above information in Venn – diagram. i. What percentage were there who liked both games? ii. What percentage liked football only?

Solution: Let, U = Set of surveyed workers F = Set of football likers V = set of volleyball likers

We have, Percentage of workers who liked football, n(F) = 70%Percentage of workers who liked Volleyball, n(V) = 50%Percentage of workers who liked both games, n(F∩V) = ?Percentage of workers who liked football only, n(F0)=?We know,

n(U) = n(F∪V) + n( F ∪V ) 100% = n(F) + n(V) - n(F∩V)or, 100% = 70% + 50% -n(F∩V)or, n(F∩V) = 120% - 100%

n(F∩V) = 20% ∴Percentage of workers who liked both games is 20%. Also, percentage of workers who liked football only = n(F) - n(F∩V) = 70% - 20% = 50% ∴ Percentage of workers who liked football only is 50% .Example 5 : In a survey conducted among some people of group, it was found that 55% of them liked coffee, 80% of them liked milk and 15% of them liked none; then

i. Represent the above information in a Venn – diagram. ii. If there are 110 people who liked both of them. Find the number of people

participated in the survey. Solution:

Let, 'U','C' and 'M' be the set of surveyed people, set of coffee likers and set of milk likers respectively.Number of people who liked coffee n(C) = 55%Number of people who liked milk n(M) = 80%Number of people who do not like both n( C ∪ M ) = 15%

School Mathematics Book - 10 7

Let, C = Set of coffee likers M = Set of milk likers

We know, n(U) = n(C∪M) + n( C ∪M )

or, 100% = n(C ∪M) + 15%or, n(C ∪M) = 100% - 15%∴ n(C ∪ M) = 85%Again, n(C ∪M) = n(C) + n(M) - n(C∩M)or, n(C ∩ M) = n(C) + n(M) -n(C ∪ M)

= 135% - 85%= 50%

Let the total number of people = x By question, 50% of x = 110

50x100 = 110

x = 110 × 10050

= 220

∴Total number of people participated in the survey is 220. Example 6 : In a group of 100 students, the ratio of students who like Geography and Sociology is 3:5. If 30 of them like both subjects and 10 of them like none of the subjects then by drawing Venn- diagram find how many students of them: i. like Geography only.ii. like Sociology only. Solution: Here, Let, U = Set of total group of students G = Set of students who like Geography S = Set of students who like Sociology total number of students n(U) = 100

Since the ratio of the student who like Geography and Sociology is 3:5, let us supposeNumber of students who like Geography, n(G) = 3x Number of students who like Sociology, n(S) = 5xNumber of students who like both Subjects, n(G ∩ S ) = 30Number of students who don’t like both Subjects, n( G ∪ S ) = 10Number of students who like Geography only, no(G) = ?

Number of students who like Sociology only, no(S) = ?We know, n(U) = n(G∪S) + n( G ∪ S )n(G∪S) = n(U) - n( G ∪ S )

= 100 – 10= 90

Now,n(G∪S) = n(G) + n(S)- n(G ∩S)Or, 90 = 3x + 5x – 30Or, 8x = 120

Or, x = 1208 = 15

Now, n(G)= 3x = 3 × 15 = 45 n(S) = 5x = 5 × 15 = 75 Number of students who like Geography only, no(G) = n(G) - n(G ∩ S)

= 45 – 30 = 15

Number of students who like Sociology only, no(S) = n(S) - n(G ∩S) = 75 – 30 = 45

Example 7 : In a survey one third children like only apple and 22 do not like apple at all. Also 2

5 of children like banana but 12 like none of them.i. Show the above data in Venn-diagram.ii. How many children like both types of fruits? Find it.

Solution : Here,Let A and B be the set of children who like apple and banana respectively. Let total number of children be x.Let, n(U) = x , no(A) = x

3 , n(A ) = 22, n(B) = 2x5 , n( A ∪ B ) = 12

Now we know thatno(B) = n(A ) - n( A ∪ B ) = 22 – 12 = 10Then,n (U) = no(A) + n(B) + n( A ∪ B )

x = x3 + 2x

Or, x - x3 - 2x

Or, 4x15 = 12

or, x = 12×154

∴x = 45Again, Now, no(A) = x

3 = 453 = 15 n(U) = no(A) + no(B) + n(A ∩ B) + n( A ∪ B )

n(B) = 2x5 = 2× 45

5 = 18 Or, 45 = 15+10 + n(A ∩ B) + 12∴ no (B) = n(B) - n (A∩B) Or, 45 = 37 + n(A ∩ B)= 18 - 8 = 10 Or, n(A ∩ B) = 45 – 37 = 8Thus, 8 children like both the fruits.Example 8 : Out of 120 students appeared in an examination, the number of students who passed in Mathematics only is twice the number of the students who passed in Science only. If 50 students passed in both subjects and 40 students failed in both subjects then

i. find the number of the students who passed in Mathematics.

ii. find the number of the students who passed in Science.

iii. Represent the above information along with result in a Venn- diagram.

Solution : Here, U be the set of all exam appeared students.

Let the set of students who passed in Mathematics and Science be M and S respectively. Then according to question,

n(U) = 120 , n(M ∩ S) = 50 , n( M∪S ) = 40

Let, no(M) = 2x, no(S) = x

Now , we know that ,

n(U) = no(M) + no(S) + n(M ∩ S) + n( M∪S )

Or, 120 = 2x + x + 50 + 40

Or, 120 = 3x + 90

Or, 3x = 120 - 90Or, 3x = 30 x = 10So, Number of students who passed Mathematics only = 2x = 2 × 10 = 20

School Mathematics Book - 1010

Number of students who passed Science only = x = 10 i. Number of students who passed Mathematics, n(M) = no(M) + n(M ∩ S)

= 20 + 50 = 70

ii. Number of students who passed Science, n(S) = no(S) + n(M ∩ S)

= 10 + 50 = 60

Example 9 : In a class of 75 students, 30 students like to drink milk but not tea and 25 students like to drink tea but not milk, 10 like none of these. How many students like both subjects ? Represent the information in Venn- diagram.

Solution : Here,

Let M and T represent the sets of the students of a class who like to drink milk and tea respectively and U be the set of all students in the class. Then n(U) = 75 , no (M) = 30 , no(T) = 25, n( M ∪T ) = 10 and n(M ∩ T) = ?

Now , we have

n(U) = no(M) + no(T) + n(M ∩ T) + n( M ∪T )

or, 75 = 30 + 25 + n(M ∩ T) + 10

or, 75 = 65 + n(M ∩ T)

or, n(M ∩ T) = 75 - 65

n(M ∩T) = 10

Thus, the number of the students who like to drink both milk and tea is 10.Example 10: In a survey of 100 people of Kritipur, it was found all liked at least one of the three local newspaper; Kritipur times, Chovar times and Pharping times. It was reported that 60 liked to read Kritipur times, 32 liked to read both Kritipur times and Chovar times 22 liked to read both Kritipur times and Pharping times, 20 liked to read both Chovar times and Pharping times, 15 liked Chovar times only and 10 liked Pharping times only. Draw a Venn- diagram to illustrate above information and then find

i. How many people like to read all three news papers ?

ii. How many people like to read Kritipur times only ?

Solution : Here, Let, U be the set of surveyed people of Kritipur.

Let K,C and P be the sets of people who read Kritipur times, Chovar times and Pharping times respectively. Let x be the number of people who like to read all newspaper.

Here, n( K ∪C ∪P ) = 100, n(K) = 60 , n(K ∩ C) = 32 , n( K ∩ P) = 22 , n( C ∩ P) = 20 ,

no(C) = 15 , no(P) = 10, let n (K ∩C ∩P) be x

Let, n (K ∩C ∩P) be x.

Now, from the Venn- diagram

n(K) = no(K) + no(K ∩C) +no(C ∩P) + n(K ∩C ∩P)

or, 60 = no(K) + 32 – x + 22 – x + x

or, 60 = no(K) + 54 - x

Or, no(K) = 60 – 54 + x

no(K) = 6 + x

i. n (K∪C∪P ) = no(K) + no(C) + no(P) + no(K∩C) + no(C∩P) + no(P∩K) + n(K∩C∩P)

Or, 100 = 6 + x + 15 +10 + 32 - x + 20 – x + 22 – x + x

Or, 100 = 105 – x

Or, x = 105 – 100

x = 5

Thus, 5 people like to read all three newspapers.

i. Now from the Venn- diagram

no(K) = 6 + x = 6 + 5 = 11

So, 11 people like to read only Kritipur times.

Example 11 : In an examination, 30% students failed Nepali, 40% failed Science, 45% failed Mathematics, 15% failed Nepali and Science, 10% failed Nepali and Mathematics, 15% failed in Science and Mathematics and 5% failed in all three subjects.

i. What percent of the students passed in all subjects ?ii. What percent failed in only one subject ?iii. What percent failed exactly two subjects ?

M = Set of Mathematics failure.

Percentage of total failed students, n(U) = 100%

Percentage of students failed in Nepali, n(N) = 30%

Percentage of students failed in Science, n(S) = 40%

Percentage of students failed in Mathematics, n(M) = 45%

Percentage of students failed in Nepali and Science, n(N ∩S) = 15%

Percentage of students failed in Nepali and Mathematics, n(N ∩M) = 10%

Percentage of students failed in Mathematics and Science n(M ∩S) = 15%

Percentage of students failed in all three subjects n(N ∩M ∩S) = 5%

We know,

n(N ∪M ∪S) = n(N) + n(S) + n(M) - n(N ∩S) - n(N ∩M) - n(M ∩S) + n(N ∩M ∩S)

= 30% + 40% + 45% - 15% - 10% - 15% + 5%

= 120% - 40%

= 80%

i. Percentage of the students passed in all subjects

n(N ∪M ∪S ) = n(U) - n(N ∪M ∪S)

= 100% - 80%

= 20%

2.1. Discount and VAT

In the market, we see that the price of many articles is marked. This is called marked price (M.P.). It is also sometimes called list price or usual price. However you must have noticed bumper sale advertisements. In such sales to clear the stocks or for other reasons the seller sells the goods at prices lower than the normal marked price. This rebate is called discount. Thus, the deduction made on marked price is discount. It is generally given as percent of the marked price or list price.

To generate revenues for spending on public benefits, the central and local state government impose various kinds of taxes such as sales tax, entry tax, service tax etc. Value added tax (VAT) previously called sales tax is one such tax. The rate of value added tax in Nepal is 13% at present. Originally it was 10% . VAT is determined by adding taxes for transportation, insurance, commission for the agent etc. and other extra taxes for the imported goods. VAT is added on the price after deducting discount from the original price. In every fiscal year, the government fixes the rate of VAT and also fixes which goods are VAT free and which are not VAT free. It depends on the policy of the government. The rate of VAT is different in different countries.

In some countries, VAT is made free to foreign tourists for the product of their countries to encourage them and to buy the goods of the host nation. It is returned to them at the time of leaving the country.

VAT (Value Added Tax): The tax which is added while supplying goods or services is called VAT.

Thus, SP = MP – discountSP = MP – discount % of MP

Discount amount = MP – SP

Discount (%) = discount amountMP

×100 %

Price including VAT = Price after discount + VAT amount

VAT amount = SP with VAT – SP

VAT (%) = Amunt of VATSP

Example 1: Find the amount of VAT at the rate of 13 % on a laptop whose selling price is Rs 52000.Solution : Here, Selling price of laptop = Rs 52000Rate of VAT = 13 %VAT amount = 13 % of Selling price

= 13100

× Rs 52000

= Rs 6760∴ Hence, the required VAT amount is Rs 6760.

Example 2: What is the net payment of the bill amounting Rs 1800 allowing a discount of 5 % .Solution : Here, Bill amount = Rs 1800Rate of discount = 5%∴Discount amount = 5 % of bill amount

= 5100

× Rs 1800

= Rs 90 Net payment = Bill amount – discount = Rs 1800 – Rs 90 = Rs 1710Hence, the net bill amount is Rs 1710.Example 3 : The marked price of a radio is Rs 5000. What will be the price of the radio if 10 % VAT is levied after allowing 15 % discount on it ?Solution : Here, Marked price of the radio (MP) = Rs 5000Rate of discount (R) = 15 % Rate of VAT = 10%Real price of the radio = ? We know, Discount amount = 15 % of Marked price

= 15100

× Rs 5000

= Rs 750Now, the selling price of the radio = SP + VAT = Rs 4250 + Rs 425 = Rs 4675Hence, the actual selling price of the radio is Rs 4675.Example 4 : After allowing 20 % discount on the marked price of an article, 13 % VAT is levied, then the price becomes Rs 2151.52. Find the marked price of the article.Solution : Here,Rate of discount (D) = 20 %Rate of VAT = 13 %Selling price with VAT = Rs 2151.52Marked price (M.P.) = ?

Selling price (SP) = MP – Discount = Rs 5000 – Rs 750 = Rs 4250VAT amount = 10 % of Selling price

= 10100

× 4250

= Rs 425

School Mathematics Book - 10 23

Let marked price (M.P.) be Rs x, then

Discount (D) = 20 % of x = 20100

x = Rs 20x100

∴ Selling price (S.P.) = M.P. - D

= x - 20x100

= 100x - 20x100

= 80x100

= Rs 4x5

Hence, the marked price of the article is Rs 2380.

Example 5 : After allowing 5 % discount on the marked price of a watch , 10 % VAT is charged on it , then its price becomes Rs 1672. Find the amount of discount.Solution : Here,Rate of discount (D) = 5 %Rate of VAT = 10 %Selling price with VAT = Rs 1672Discount amount (D) = ?Let marked price (M.P.) be Rs. x, then

Discount (D) = 5 % of x = 5100

× x = 5x100

Selling price (S.P.) = M.P. - D

= x - 5x100

= 100x - 5x100

= 95x100

= Rs 19x20

VAT amount = 10 % of S.P.

= 10100

× 19x20

= Rs 19x200

VAT amount = 13 % of S.P.

= 13100

× 4x5

= Rs 52x500

Now, we know, S.P. with VAT = S.P. + VAT

Or, 2151.52 = 4x5

+ 52x500

Or, 2151.52 = 400x+52x500

Or, 452x = 1075760

Or, x = 1075760452

Or, x = Rs 2380

Now, we know, S.P. with VAT = S.P. + VAT

Or, 1672 = 19x20

+ 19x200

Or, 1672 = 190x + 19x 200

Or, 1672 × 200 = 209x

Or, x = 1672 × 200209

Or, x = Rs 1600

Now discount amount (D) = 5x100

= 5×1600100

= Rs 80Hence, the discount amount is Rs 80.

Example 6 : If a tourist paid Rs 5610 for a carved window of a wood with a discount of 15% including 10 % value added tax (VAT), how much does he get back while leaving Nepal? Find it.Solution : Here,S.P. with VAT = Rs 5610Rate of discount = 15%Rate of VAT = 10%Let marked price (M.P.) of the window= Rs x

Discount (D) = 15 % of x = 15100

× x = 15x100

Selling price (S.P.) = M.P. - D

= x - 15x100

= 100x -5x100

= 85x100

= Rs. 17x20

VAT amount = 10 % of S.P.

= 10100

× 17x20

= Rs 17x200

Example 7 : The marked price of an article is Rs 2000 and the shopkeeper allows 10% discount. After levying VAT , if a customer pays Rs 2034 for it, what percent of VAT was charged?Solution : Here,Marked price of article (M.P.) = Rs 2000Rate of discount = 15%S.P. of article with VAT = Rs 2034Rate of VAT = ?

Discount (D) = 10 % of 2000 = 10100 × 2000 = 200

Now, selling price of article (S.P.) = M.P. – D = 2000 – 200 = Rs 1800We know, Amount of VAT = S.P. with VAT – S.P. without VAT = 2034 – 1800 = Rs 234

Now, we know, S.P. with VAT = S.P. + VAT

Or, 5610 = 17x20

+ 17x200

Or, 5610 = 170x + 17x 200

Or, 5610 = 187x200

Or, x = 5610 × 200187

Or, x = Rs 6000

Now, VAT amount (VAT) = 17x200

= 17 × 6000200

= Rs 510

Hence, the tourist gets the VAT amount Rs 510 back when he leaves Nepal.

School Mathematics Book - 10 25

Now, Percent of VAT = Amount of VATS.P. without VAT

× 100%

= 2341800

× 100%

= 13 %Thus, the VAT percent is 13%.Example 8 : A shopkeeper fixed the marked price of his camera 30% above his cost price. Allowing 15% discount on the marked price, the camera was sold. What percent of profit did he make?Solution : Here,Let cost price of a camera (C.P.) = Rs xBy question, marked price (M.P) = C.P. + 30% of C.P.

= x + 30100

× x

= 100x + 30x100

= 130x100

= Rs 13x10

Discount (D) = 15% of M.P.

= 15100

× 13x10

= Rs 39x200

Now, we know, S.P. = M.P. – D

= 13x10

- 39x200

= 260x - 39x200

= Rs 221x200

Hence, the profit percent is 10.5%.

We know, P = S.P. – C.P.

= 221x200

– x

= 221x - 200x200

= Rs 21x100

Now, Profit % = Profit amountC.P.

Example 9 : The marked price of an article is 25% above its selling price and cost price is 30% less than its marked price. Find the discount percent and gain percent.Solution : Here,Let selling price(S.P.) of an article be Rs ‘x’Then, by question , marked price (M.P.) = x + 25% of x

= x + 25100

× x

= 100 x + 25 x100

= 125x100

= Rs 5x4

And cost price (C.P.) = 5x4

- 30% of 5x4

= 5x4

-

30100

× 5x4

= 5x4

- 3x8

= 10x - 3x8

= Rs 7x8

Now, we know, Discount = M.P. – S.P.

= 5x4

- x = 5x-4x4

= Rs x4

Also, we know, profit (P) = S.P – C.P.

= x - 7x8

= 8x - 7x4

= Rs x8

Example 10 : A shopkeeper sold an article at a discount of 25 % and loses Rs 125. If he allows 10 % discount he gains Rs 250. Find the marked price and the cost price of the article.Solution : Here,Let marked price be Rs ‘x’1st case Discount = 25%Loss (L) = Rs 125 S.P. = M.P. – D = x - 25% of x

= x - 25100

× x

= 100x - 25x100

= 75x100

= Rs 3x4

We know, C.P. = S.P. + L

= 3x4

+ 125

= Rs 3x+5004

We know, C.P. = S.P. - G

2nd caseDiscount = 10%Gain (G) = Rs 250S.P. = M.P. – D = x - 10 % of x

= x - 10100

× x

= 100x - 10x100

= 90x100

= Rs 9x10

School Mathematics Book - 1028

3x+5004

= 9x10

- 250

Or, 3x +5004

= Rs 9x+250010

Or, 36x – 10000 = 30x +5000 Or, 36 x – 30x = 5000 + 10000 Or, 6 x = 15000

Or, x = 150006

Or, x = Rs 2500

And, C.P. = 3 × 2500 + 5004

= 80004

= Rs 2000

Hence, marked price of an article is Rs 2500 and cost price is Rs 2000.Example 11 : Golchha supplier sold a tractor to Chaudhary supplier at Rs 700000 excluding 13% VAT. Chaudhary supplier sold the same tractor to a farm with Rs 10000 transportation charge, Rs 3500 local tax and profit of Rs 50000. What is the VAT amount that the farm has to pay at the rate of 13 % ?Solution : Here,For, Golchha supplier,Selling price (S.P.) = Rs 700000Rate of VAT = 13%S.P. with VAT = 700000 + 13% of 700000 = 700000 + 91000 = Rs 791000For Chaudhary supplier,Cost price (C.P.) = Rs 791000Transportation charge = Rs 10000Local tax = Rs 3500Profit = Rs 50000 Selling price of Chaudhary supplier = Rs ( 791000 +10000 + 3500 + 50000 ) = Rs 854500Now, VAT amount = 13 % of Rs 854500 = 854500 = Rs 111085Hence, the VAT amount paid by the farm is Rs 111085

2.2 Money and ExchangeEvery country in the world has its own currency with its own value. The currency of USA is dollar, the currency of Japan is yen, the currency of England is Sterling pound, the currency of India is rupees (IC), the currency of Nepal is rupees (NC) and so on.The value of currency of any country is not fixed. It changes according to the economic development of the country and international trade policy. Now a days trade , transportation and travelling is not limited within a country.For these all exchange of money of different countries is most essential. Exchange of money means to convert currency of a country with the currencies of other countries. In our country Nepal, the central bank/ Nepal Rastra bank has the authenticity to fix the buying and selling rates of currencies of different countries every day. The buying rate is the rate at which Nepal Rastra bank or money dealers buy foreign currency, and the selling rate is the rate at which they sell that currency. Let’s study the following table which you can see in daily Gorkhapatra News paperExchange Rates fixed by Nepal Rastra bankCurrency Unit Buying /Rs Selling/RsIndian 100 160.00 160.15Open Market Exchange Rates

Example 1 : If 1 US dollar = Rs 102.85, convert Rs 51425 into dollar.Solution : Here,Rs 102.85 = $ 1

∴ Re 1 = $ 1102.85

∴ Rs 51425 = $ 1102.85

× 51425

= $ 500

∴ Rs 51425 = $ 500Example 2 : If dollars($) 30 = Rs 3000 and Pound (£)20 = Rs 2800, how many Pounds can be exchanged from $ 75 ?Solution: Let x Pounds can be exchanged from $ 75 Using chain rule $ 30 = Rs 3000 Rs 2800 = £ 20 Let, x = $ 75Now, 30 × 2800 × x = 3000 × 20 × 75

Or, x = 3000 × 20 × 7530 × 2800

Or, x = £ 53.57∴ £ 53.57 can be exchanged from $ 75Example 3 : Prasuna needs $ 3000 to visit Thailand. If a bank charges 2% commission while exchanging it , how much Nepali currency did she need ? ($ 1 = Rs 103.45)Solution : Here $ 1 = Rs 103.45 ∴ $ 3000 = Rs 103.45 × 3000 = Rs 310350Amount of Bank commission = 2% of Rs 310350 = Rs 6207Require Nepali currency = Rs 310350 + Rs 6207 = Rs 316557Hence , she needs Rs 316557.

Example 4 : Prabesh exchanged Rs 1000000 into dollars ($) for his foreign tour. But, due to some problem he had to cancel his tour . At the same time, Nepali currency devaluated by 10%, then how much Nepali rupees did he get as a profit . ( Initial rate : $1 = Rs 102.85 )

Solution : Here,

Rs 102.85 = $ 1

∴ Re 1 = $ 1102.85

∴Rs 1000000 = $ 1102.85

× 1000000

= $ 9722.90

So, He had $ 9722.90.

After devaluation of Nepali currency

1 $ = Rs 102.85 + 10% of 102.85

= Rs 102.85 + 10.285

= Rs 113.14

Again exchanging $ 9722.90 into Nepali currency using new rate

$ 9722.90 = Rs 9722.90 × 113.14

= Rs 1100048.91

∴Profit = Rs 1100048.91 – Rs 1000000

= Rs 100048.91

Hence , the required profit is Rs 100048.91.

Example 5 : 10 Tolas gold bought from American market at $ 400 per tola is sold in Nepal with 20% custom duty and 13% VAT. At what rate should he sold in Nepali market to make 15% profit? ($1= Rs 102.15)

Solution : Here,

Cost of 1 tola gold in American market = $ 400

Cost of 10 tolas gold in American market = $ 400 × 10 = $ 4000

Custom duty = 20% of $ 4000

School Mathematics Book - 1036

= 20100

× 4000

= $ 800

Cost with custom duty = $ 4000 + $ 800 = $ 4800

VAT amount = 13% of $ 4800

= 13100

× 4800

= $ 624

Cost with custom duty and VAT = $ 4800 + $ 624

= $ 5424

Profit = 15%

Profit amount = 15% of $5424

= 15100

× $5424

= $813.6

Now SP of 10 tolas gold in Nepal = $5424 + $813.6

= $6237.6

= Rs 6237.6 × 102.15

= Rs 637170.84

∴ SP of 1 tola gold in Nepal = Rs 637170.8410

∴ The gold should be sold at the rate of Rs 63717.084 per tola.

2.3 Compound interestInterest : When we take a loan from a bank or from a person we have to pay some charge along with the borrowed sum while returning it under the certain condition. Such extra sum of money paid along with the principal to clear the debt is called interest.There are two types of interest. They are

i. Simple interest: The interest which is calculated from the original principal at the end of the given time period having the given rate is called simple interest. It is calculated by using the formula,

Simple interest(I) = P × T × R100

where ‘P’ is principal’ T’ is time in years and ‘R’ is rate of interest.

ii. Compound interest: When the interest of a principal for one time period (Year or half year or quarter year) is added to the principal and the interest for the next time period is calculated from new principal (amount of the previous time period), It is called compound interest.

The process of calculating interest of a principal for one time period and adding to the principal and forming new principal for the next time period is known as compounding.

From above, it has become clear that compound interest is interest of interest. It is the result of reinventing interest in the next time period on the amount of the previous time period. In this way the principal is increased in every time period whereas it remains the same throughout the given time in simple interest.

Formula derivation to calculate the compounded interest.Let the original principal = Rs PAnnual rate of interest = R%Time interval = T years.Then,

Interest in the first year = P×T×R100

= P×l×R100

= PR100

Exercise 1 : Find the compound interest on Rs 5000 for 3 years at 8% per annum, compounded annually. Solution: Here, Principal (P) = Rs 5000. Interest for the first year = P×T×R

100

= 5000 × 1 × 8 100

= Rs 400. Amount at the end of the first year = P + I = Rs (5000 + 400) = Rs 5400.Principal for the second year = 5400

Interest for the second year = P×T×R100

= 5400 × 1 × 8 100

= Rs 432Amount at the end of the second year = Rs (5400 + 432) = Rs 5832.Principal for the third year = Rs 5832.

Interest for the third year = 5832 × 1 × 8100

= Rs 466.56 Amount at the end of the third year = Rs (5832 + 466.56) = Rs 6298.56 Therefore, compound interest is Rs (6298.56 - 5000) = Rs 1298.56 Example 2 : Find the compound amount and interest on Rs 2500 for 3 years at 6% per annum, compounded annually.

Or, x = 22410.6225= Rs 3600

The sum lent to Ram is Rs 3600And the sum lent to Shyam = Rs (6600 – x) = Rs (6600 – Rs 3600) = Rs 3000Thus, the sum lent to Shyam is Rs 3000Example 12: The compound interest of a sum of money in 2 years and 4 years are Rs 1050 and Rs 2320.50 respectively.

2.5 DepreciationWhen the assets like furniture, electronic items, vehicle etc. are used for some time, their values decrease continuously. Such decrement of values of liquid assets is called depreciation.Depreciation may be simple or compound but here, we will discuss about the compound depreciation. In compound depreciation, the amount of reduction is calculated every year from every depreciated value. So, the compound depreciation is calculated in the similar way of calculation of compound interest. It means in compound depreciation reduction in the value of the assets is not same. It is calculated from the depreciated value of the assets at the end of the previous year.Let the original value of goods= DoRate of depreciation = R%Value of goods after T years = DTTime period = T years

Then , DT = DoR

Where, R1= rate of depreciation in first year. R2= rate of depreciation in second year. R3= rate of depreciation in third year.

Example 1 : A television costing Rs 11600 is depreciated at the rate of 15% per annum. What will be the cost of television after two years?Solution : Here,Initial cost of the television (Do) = Rs 11600Rate of depreciation ( R ) = 15 %Time period ( T ) = 2 yearsCost of the television after two years (DT) = ?We know, Cost of the television after two years (DT) = Do

3.1 Area of triangleThere are different types of triangles such as right angled triangle, equilateral triangle, isosceles triangle and scalene triangle. In this chapter we calculate the area of these triangles.1. Area of triangle when base and height are given:Let us take triangle ABC, in which AD is perpendicular to BC. So, AD is height or altitude of triangle and BC is base.

Here, Area of triangle ABC = 12 (base × height)

= 12

(BC × AD)

= 12

(b × h)

2. Area of right angled triangle :ABC is a right angled triangle having right angle at B. Two sides AB and BC contain-ing right angle are consider as height and base to find the area.

Area of triangle ABC = 12 (base × height)

= 12 (BC × AB)

= 12

(b × h)

School Mathematics Book - 10 67

3. Area of an equilateral triangle

Let us consider an equilateral triangle ABC in which AB = BC = AC

Let AB = BC = AC = a

Let AD ⊥ BC

Here, BD = CD = a2

In right angled triangle ABD,

AD = AB2 - BD2

AD = a2 - ( a2 )2

= a2 - a2

4

= 3a2

2 = 32

a

Now area of triangle ABC = 12 × base × height

= 12 × a × a

2 3

= 34 a2

Therefore, Area of an equilateral triangle = 34 a2

Where ‘a’ is the length of each side of an equilateral triangle. 4. Area of an isosceles triangle

Let us take an isosceles triangle ABC having AB=ACLet AB = AC = a and base BC = bLet AD ⊥ BCHere, BD = CD = b

2 (∵AD⊥ BC)In right angled triangle ABD,

AD = AB2 - BD2

= a2 - ( b2 )2

= a2 - b2

4

School Mathematics Book - 1068

= 4a2 - b2

4

= 12

4a2 - b2

Now, Area of triangle ABC = 12 (base × height)

= 12 (BC × AD)

= 12 × b × 1

2 4a2 - b2

Therefore, Area of an isosceles triangle = b4 4a2 - b2

Where ‘a’ represents the length of equal sides ‘b’ represents the length of base of the triangle.

5. Area of scalene triangle when three sides are given Let us take triangle ABC having sides AB, BC and AC. Let AD ⊥ BC.

Let BC = a, AC = b and AB = c, AD = h Let DC = x , then BD = a-xAlso, let perimeter of triangle be P i.e. 2s.Then,P = AB + BC + AC

2s = a + b + c

s = a+b+c2 ………….. (1)

Now, in right angled triangle ABDc2 = h2 + (a-x) 2

or, h2 = c2 – (a – x) 2 ……………. (2)In right angled triangle ACD b2 = h2 + x2

or, h2 = b2 – x2 …………………. (3)From equation (2) and (3)b2 – x2 = c2 – (a – x) 2

b2 – x2 = c2 – a2 + 2ax – x2

2ax = a2 + b2 – c2

School Mathematics Book - 10 69

x = a2 + b2 - c2

2a …………. (4)

Now from equation (3)

h2 = b2 – a2 + b2 - c2

2a( )2

Or , h2 = a2 + b2 - c2

2a(b + ) a2 + b2 - c2

2a(b - )

Or ,h2 = 2ab + a2 + b2 - c2

2a( ) 2ab - a2 - b2 + c2

2a( )

Or ,h2 = (a+b)2 - c2

Area of quadrilateralsThe diagonal of a quadrilateral divides the quadrilateral into two triangles. So, sum of these triangles gives the area of quadrilateral.

Now, Area of ∆ ABD = 12 × base × height

= 12 × BD × AQ

Then, Area of ∆ BCD = 12 × base × height

= 12 × BD × PC

Area of quadrilateral ABCD = Area of ∆ ABD + Area of ∆ BCD

= 12

× BD × AQ + 1

2 × BD × PC

= 12 × BD ( AQ + PC )

= 12 × one diagonal (sum of length of perpendiculars drawn on it from the remaining

vertices).Similarly, we can find the area of the following quadrilaterals .

a. Area of trapezium = 12

b. Area of kite = 12 × product of length of diagonals

c. Area of rhombus = 12 × product of length of diagonals

Worked Out Examples

Example 1 : Find the area of the following figures.

School Mathematics Book - 10 71

Solution: a. Base of ∆ ABC (BC) = 10 cm

Height of ∆ ABC (AD) = 6 cm

Area of ∆ ABC = 12 × base × height

= 12 × 10cm × 6cm

= 30 cm2

b. In right angled ∆ ABC, AB2 + BC2 = AC2 (by Pythagoras theorem) Or, AB2 + 82 = 102

Or, AB2 = 100 – 64 Or, AB = 36 AB = 6 cm

Now, area of ∆ ABC = 12 × base × height

= 12

× 8cm × 6cm

= 24 cm2

c. Three sides of a scalene triangle are, a = 6 cm, b = 5cm and c = 4 cm

∴ s = a + b + c2

= 6 cm + 5 cm + 4cm2

= 7.5 cm

Now, area of ∆ PQR = s(s-a) (s-b) (s-c)

= 7.5 (7.5 - 6) (6.5 - 5) (7.5 - 4)

= 7.5 × 1.5 × 2.5 × 3.5

= 98.4375 = 9.92 cm2

= = 12cm2

Example 2 : Find the area of the following figures.

Solution:a. Three sides of ∆ BCD are a = 8 cm, b = 6 cm and c = 4 cm

s = a + b + c2 = 8 + 6 + 4

2 = 182 = 9 cm

Area of ∆ BCD = s(s-a) (s-b) (s-c)

= 9 (9-8) (9 - 6) (9 - 4)

= 9 × 1 × 3 × 5

= 11.61 cm2

Now, area of parallelogram ABCD = 2× ∆ BCD ( Since diagonal bisects the parallelogram) = 2 × 11.61 cm2

= 23.22 cm2

Thus, the area of parallelogram ABCD is 23.22 cm2.b. Three sides of ∆ PQR are a = 5 cm, b = 4 cm and c = 2 cm

s = a + b + c2 = 5 + 4 + 2

2 = 5.5 cm

Now area of ∆ PQR = s(s-a) (s-b) (s-c)

= 5.5 (5.5 - 5) (5.5 -4) (5.5 -2)

= 5.5 × 0.5 × 1.5 × 3.5

= 3.8 cm2

School Mathematics Book - 10 73

Again, three sides of ∆ PSR are, a = 4 cm, b = 3 cm and c = 2 cm

s = a + b + c2 = 4 + 3 + 2

2 = 4.5 cm

Area of ∆ PSR = s(s-a) (s-b) (s-c)

= 4.5 (4.5 - 4) (4.5 - 3) (4.5 - 2)

= 4.5 × 0.5 × 1.5 × 2.5

= 2.9 cm2

Now, area of quadrilateral PQRS = Area of ∆ PQR + Area of ∆ PSR = 3.8 cm2 + 2.9 cm2

= 6.7 cm2

c. Area of right angled triangle ABC = 12 × base × height

= 12

(BC × AB)

= 12

(16 × 12)

= 96 cm2

In right angled triangle ABCAB2 + BC2 = AC2

AC2 = 144 + 256

AC = 400 ∴ AC = 20 cmNow three sides of triangle ADC are a = 13 cm, b = 20 cm and c = 21 cm

s = a + b + c2 = 13 + 20 + 21

2 = 27 cm

Area of triangle ADC = s(s-a) (s-b) (s-c)

= 27 (27 - 13) (27 - 20) (27 - 21)

= 27 × 14 × 7 × 6

= 126 cm2

Now, area of quadrilateral ABCD = Area of triangle ABC + Area of triangle ADC = 96 cm2 + 126 cm2

= 222 cm2

Hence, the area of quadrilateral ABCD is 222 cm2.

Example 3.a. If area of an equilateral triangle is 4 3 cm2, find its perimeter.Solution : Here,

Area of equilateral triangle = 4 3 cm2

Perimeter of triangle = ?We know, Area of an equilateral triangle = 3

4 a2 where a is the length of each side of equilateral triangle. Or, 4 3 = 3

4 a2

Or, a2 = 16 ∴ a = 4 cmNow, perimeter of equilateral triangle = 3 a = 3 × 4 = 12 cmThus, the perimeter of an equilateral triangle is 12 cm.b. The area of an issoscles triangle is 240 cm2 and its base is 20 cm. Find the length

of its equal sides.Solution : Here,

Area of an issoscles triangle = 240 cm2 Length of the base of an issoscles triangle (b) = 20 cm.Length of equal sides of an isosceles triangle(a) = ?We know,Area of an issoscles triangle (A) = b

4 4a2 - b2

Or, 240 = 204 4a2 - 202

Or, 240 × 420

= 4a2 - 202

Or, 48 = 4a2 - 400Squaring both sides, we get 2304 = 4a2 - 400

Or, 2304 + 400 = 4a2

Or, a2 = 27044

Or, a = 26 cmThus, the length of equal sides of an issoscles triangle is 26 cm.

Example 4: If the diagonal of a rhombus are 10 cm and 6 cm respectively. Find the area of the rhombus.Solution: Here,

ABCD is a rhombus having diagonals BD and ACDiagonal BD (d1) = 10 cmDiagonal AC (d2) = 6 cm

Area of rhombus = 12

product of diagonals

= 12

d1 × d2

= 12

10cm × 6cm

= 30 cm2

Thus, the area of rhombus is 30 cm2.

Example 5 : If the ratio of the sides of a triangle is 5:7:8 and perimeter is 80 cm, find the area of triangle.Solution: Here,

Let three sides of triangle be 5x cm, 7x cm, and 8x cm respectively.Perimeter of triangle = 80 cmor, 5x +7x + 8x = 80or, 20x = 80

or, x = 8020

= 4 cmNow, 5x = 5 × 4 = 20 cm 7x= 7 × 4 = 28 cm8x = 8 × 4 = 32 cm

Here, s = Perimeter2 = 40 cm

Now, a = 20 cm, b = 28 cm and c = 32 cm

Area of triangle = s(s-a) (s-b) (s-c)

= 40 (40 - 20) (40 - 28) (40 - 32)

= 40 × 20 × 12 × 8

= 76800

= 277.12 cm2

Thus, the area of triangle is 277.12 cm2.

Example 6 : The perimeter of a right angled triangle is 24 cm and its area is 24 cm2. Find the sides of triangle.Solution: Here,Let us take a right angled triangle ABC having a right angle at B.Let AC = b (hypotenuse)

BC = a (base)AB = c (perpendicular)

Perimeter of triangle ABC = 24 cmor, a + b + c = 24 cmor, a + c = 24 – b cm ……… (1)

Area of triangle ABC = 12

× base × height

or, 24 cm2 = 12

ac

or, ac = 48 …….. (2)Also, b2 = a2 + c2 (by Pythagoras theorem)

b2 = (a + c) 2 - 2ac

or, b2 = (24 - b) 2 - 2 × 48

or, b2 = 576 - 48b + b2 - 96or, 48b = 480

or, b = 10 cm∴ Hypotenuse (b) = 10 cm

∴ The required three sides of triangle are 10 cm, 8 cm and 6 cm.Example 7 : The area of triangle is 24 cm2. If its perimeter is 24 cm and its one side is 10 cm, find the length of remaining sides.Solution :

Let the length of remaining sides of triangle are ‘a’ and ‘b’Then, perimeter of the triangle (s) = 24 cm The length of one side (c) = 10 cm Now, a + b + c = 24

A

BC

Now from equation (1) a + c = 14

or, a + 48a

= 14

or, a2 + 48 = 14a or, a2 - 14a + 48 = 0 or, a2 - 8a - 6a + 48 = 0 or, a(a - 8) (a - 8) = 0 or, (a - 8) (a - 6) = 0

Either a = 8 cmOr, a = 6 cm

School Mathematics Book - 10 77

Or, a + b = 24 – c Or, a + b = 24 - 10 Or, a + b = 14 Or, b = 14 - a

Also, s = 242 = 12 cm

According to formula,

A = s(s-a) (s-b) (s-c)

Or, 24 = 12(12 -a) (12 - 14 + a) (12 - 10)

Or, 24 = 12 (12 - a) (a - 2) × 2

Or, 24 = 24 (12 - a) (a - 2)

When a = 6 cm then b = 8 cm and when a = 8 cm then b = 6 cm.

Squaring both sides. We get Or, 576 = 24 (12 - a) (a - 2)

Or, 57624

= 12a - 24 - a2 + 2a

Or, 24 = 14a – 24 – a2

Or, a2 – 14a + 48 = 0Or, a2 – 8a – 6a + 48 = 0Or, a(a – 8) – 6(a – 8) = 0Or, (a - 8) (a – 6) = 0Either, a – 8 = 0 or, a – 6 = 0 a = 8 a = 6 a = 8 or 6

triangles and three rectangles obtained by joining the corresponding vertices of the triangles at the bases.In the given figure, triangle ABC and triangle DEF are the triangular bases. ADEB, ACFD and BCFE are the three rectangular surfaces. BE = l is the length (height) of the prism. Area of triangular base is also known as area of cross section and area of three rectangular surfaces is known as lateral surface area.Let area of two triangular bases = 2∆

1. lateral surface area = Area of three rectangular surfaces= al + bl + cl= (a + b + c ) l= p × l (where p is perimeter of triangular base)

2. Total surface area of the prism = Area of two triangular bases + lateral surface area = 2∆ + p × l

3. Volume of the prism = Area of triangular base × length (height)ActivityDesign a net of a prism and explore to verify the formulae of the + lateral surface area and the total surface area.

Solution:a. In right angled triangular base ABC,

AB2 + BC2 = AC2 (by Pythagoras theorem)Or, 42 + BC2 = 52

Or, BC2 = 25 – 16Or, BC = 9 ∴ BC = 3cmLateral surface area = Perimeter of triangular base × length = (3 cm + 4 cm + 5 cm) × 8 cm

School Mathematics Book - 10 83

= 12cm × 8 cm = 96 cm2

Area of triangular base ABC = 12 × base × height

= 12 × 3 × 4

= 6 cm2

Total surface area of prism = area of two triangular bases + lateral surface area = 2 × 6cm2 + 96 cm2

= 108 cm2

Volume of prism = area of triangular base × length = 6 cm2 × 8 cm = 48 cm3

Hence, LSA,TSA and volume of prism are 96 cm2, 108 cm2 and 48 cm3 respectively.

b. Base is an equilateral triangle having side (a) = 6 cm

Area of triangular base = 34 × a2

= 34 × 62

= 9 3 cm2

∴ Length of prism (l) = 10 cmLateral surface area = Perimeter of triangular base × length = 3 × 6 cm × 10 cm = 180 cm2

Total surface area = Area of 2 triangular bases + lateral surface area

= 2 × 9 3 cm2 + 180 cm2

= 211.176 cm2

Volume of prism = Area of triangular base × length

= 9 3 cm2 × 10 cm = 155.88 cm3

Hence, LSA,TSA and volume of prism are 180 cm2, 2110176 cm2 and 155.88cm3 respectively.

Example 2 : If the volume of the given triangular prism is 240 cm3, find the value of x.Solution: Here,

Volume of given triangular prism = 240 cm3

Length of prism (l) = 12 cm

Area of triangular base = VolumeLength

Area of triangular base = 12

Or, 20 cm2 = 12

Or, x = 204

∴ x = 5 cmThus, the value of x is 5 cm.

Example 3 : The length of the sides of the base of a triangular prism is 12 cm , 16 cm and 20 cm. If its LSA is 768 cm2 , what is its volume ?Solution : Here,The base of the prism is a triangle with sides 12 cm , 16 cm 20 cm. LSA is 768 cm2.

Let ‘h’ be the height of the prism.Lateral surface area = Perimeter of base × height of the prism. 768 = ( 12 + 16 + 20 ) × h

Or, h = 76848

∴h = 16 cmSo, the height of the prism(h) = 16 cmNow, for the volume of the prism.

Semi perimeter (s) = 12 + 16 + 202 = 24 cm

Let the sides of the base be a = 12 cm , b = 16 cm and c = 20 cmNow,Area of base triangle = s(s-a) (s-b) (s - c)

= 96 cm2

Then, volume of the prism = base area × height of the prism = 96 × 16 = 1536 cm3

Thus, the volume of the prism is 1536 cm3.Example 4 : The base of the right- prism is an equilateral triangle having perimeter 24 cm. If the length of the prism is 14 cm. Find its total surface are and volume.Solution : Here,

Perimeter of an equilateral triangle = 24 cmLength of the prism = 14 cmLet each side of an equilateral is ‘a’ cmNow, we knowPerimeter of an equilateral triangle(P) = a + a + a 24 = 3a ∴ a = 8 cmNow,Lateral surface area of prism = Perimeter of base × height of prism = 24 cm × 14 cm = 336 cm2

Area of an equilateral triangle (A) = 34 × a2

= 34 × 82

= 16 3 cm2

Now, Total surface are of the prism (TSA) = 2×Area of base+Lateral surface area

= 2 × 16 3 + 336 = 391.4 cm2

And, Volume of the prism (V) = Area of base × height of prism

= 16 3 × 14 = 387.98 cm3

Hence, total surface area of prism is 391.4 and volume of the prism is 387.98 cm3.

Example 5 : The base of a triangular prism is an equilateral triangle. Its lateral surface area is 120 cm2 and volume is 20 3 cm3. Find the height and side of the base of the prism.Solution : Here,

Lateral surface area(LSA) = 120 cm2

Volume of prism(V) = is 20 3 cm3

Let each side of an equilateral triangle is ’a’ cm and height be ‘h’ cm.Now we knowLateral surface are (LSA) = Perimeter × height 120 = 3a × h

Or, h = 1203a …………….(I)

Again, We knowVolume of the prism = Area of triangular base × height

Or, 20 3 = 34 × a2 × 120

3a (Putting the value of h from (I) ) Or, a = 2 ∴ Each side of an equilateral triangle (a) = 2 cmPutting the value of a in equation (i), we get

h = 1203×2 = 20 cm

Thus, each side of an equilateral triangle is 2 cm and height of prism is 20 cm.Example 6 : Find the lateral surface area and total surface area of a right prism of volume 240 cm3 and base is a right angled triangle of sides 8 cm and 6 cm contain-ing right angle.Solution : Here,

Volume of the prism(V) = 240 cm3

Two sides of a right angled triangle containing right angle are p= 8 cm and b= 6 cm. Let the third side of the right angled triangle is ‘h’ We know, h2 = p2 + b2

= 82 + 62

= 64 + 36 = 100 ∴ h = 10 cm

School Mathematics Book - 10 87

Now, Area of triangular base (A) = 12 × 8 × 6 = 24 cm2

Volume of the prism (V) = Area of triangular base × height of the prism 240 = 24 × h

Or, h = 24024 = 10 cm

Height of the prism (h)= 10 cmThen, Lateral surface area (LSA) = Perimeter of base × height = ( 10 + 8 + 6 ) × 10 = 24 × 10 = 240 cm2

And total surface area of the prism (TSA) = 2 × Area of base + LSA = 2 × 24 +240 = 48 + 240 = 288 cm2

3.3 CylinderCylinder is a prism consisting of two parallel congruent circular bases and curved surface area. It is also known as circular prism.

Let us take a rectangular piece of paper having length l and breadth b and bend it as shown in the figure. We will get a figure having two circular faces and a curved sur-face. It is a cylinder.From the above figure,Curved surface of cylinder = circumference of circular base × height = 2 pr × h = 2 prhWhere ‘r’ is radius of circular base and ‘h’ is height of the cylinderTotal surface area = Area of two circular bases + Curved surface area = 2× pr2+ 2prh = 2pr(r + h)And, volume of cylinder = Area of circular base × height = pr2 × h = pr2 hVolume of material contained by a hollow cylinderThe figure shows a hollow cylinder like a pipe, flute etc. Let the external radius = R Internal radius = r Height = h External volume of cylinder = pR2h Internal volume of cylinder = pr2hVolume of material contained by cylinder = External volume – Internal volume = pR2h - pr2h = ph (R2 – r2) = ph (R + r) (R - r)

Example 1 : Find curved surface area, total surface area and volume of the following cylinders.

a. Solution: Here, Diameter of circular base (d) = 21 cm

Radius of circular base (r) = 212 = 10.5 cm

Height of cylinder (h) = 15 cm Curved surface area = 2prh = 2 × 3.14 × 10.5 × 15cm2

= 989.1 cm2

∴ Total surface area = 2pr(r + h) = 2 × 3.14 × 10.5 × (10.5 + 15) cm2

= 1681.47 cm2

∴ Volume = pr2h = 3.14 × 10.5 × 10.5 × 15cm3

= 5192.17 cm3

Thus, curved surface area of cylinder is 989.1 cm2, total surface area is 1681.47cm2 and volume is 5192.17 cm3

b. Solution :Here,Circumference of circular base C= 154 cmOr, 2pr = 154

Or, 2 × 227 × r = 154

Or, r = 154 × 744

∴ r = 24.5 cm

Worked Out Examples

School Mathematics Book - 1094

Now, curved surface area = 2prh

= 2 × 227 × 24.5 × 12 cm2

= 1848 cm2

Total surface area of cylinder = 2pr(r + h)

= 2 × 227 × 24.5 × (24.5 + 12)cm2

= 5621 cm2

Volume of cylinder = pr2h

= 227

× 24.5 × 24.5 × 12 cm3

= 22638 cm3

Thus, curved surface area of cylinder is 1848 cm2, total surface area is 5621 cm2 and volume is 22638 cm3.

Example 2 : The volume of cylindrical can is 1.54 liters. If the height is 20 cm, find its area of base and radius.Solution: Here,

Volume of cylindrical can (V) = 1.54 liters = 1.54 × 1000cm3

= 1540 cm3

Height of can (h) = 20 cmVolume = 1540 cm3

Or, pr2h = 1540Or, pr2 × 20 = 1540

Or, pr2 = 154020

= 77Therefore, area of circular base is 77 cm2.Again pr2 = 77

Or, 227

× r2 = 77

Or, r2 = 77 × 722

Or, r2 = 24.5Or, r = 24.5∴ r = 4.95 cmThus, radius of circular base (r) is 4.95 cm.

Example 3 : The height and radius of a cylinder are equal and its curved suface area is 4928 cm2. Find the circumference of the base of the cylinder.Solution : Here,Let r and h be the radius and height of the cylinder respectively such that r = hCurved surface area of the cylinder (CSA) = 4928 cm2

We have,CSA of cylinder = 2prh

Or, 4928 = 2 × 227 × r × r

Or, r2 = 784 ∴ r = 28 cmNow,Circumference of the base = 2pr

= 2 × 227 × 28

= 176 cmThus, the circumference of the base of the cylinder is 176 cm.Example 4 : The external and internal radii of a cylindrical vessel 56 cm high are 4.5 cm and 3 cm respectively. Find the volume of the material contained by the vessel.Solution: Here,

External radius of vessel (R) = 4.5 cmInternal radius of vessel (r) = 3 cmHeight of vessel (h) = 56 cm

Volume of material contained by cylinder = External volume – Internal volume = pR2h - pr2h = ph (R2 – r2)

= 227

× 56 {(4.5) 2 – (3)2}

= 22 × 8(20.25 – 9) = 1980 cm3

Thus, the volume of the material contained by the vessel is 1980 cm3.

Example 5 : The volume and curved surface area of a cylindrical wooden log are 1078 cm3 and 308 cm2 respectively. Find the radius of base and height of the log.

Solution: Here,

School Mathematics Book - 1096

Volume of log = 1078 cm3

Or, pr2h = 1078 cm3 ………. (1)Where r is radius of circular base and h is height of log.

Curved surface area of log = 308 cm2

Or, 2prh = 308 ………… (2) Dividing equation 1 by 2

pr2h2prh

= 1078308

Or, r = 3.5 cmTherefore, radius of base = 7 cmPutting value of r in equation 1, we get

227 × 7 × 7 × h = 1078

Or, h = 107822 × 7 ∴ h = 7cmTherefore, height of the log is 7 cm.

Example 6: The adjoining figure is a half portion of a solid cylinder obtained by splitting vertically through its height. Find the curved surface area, total surface area and the volume of the solid.Solution: Radius of semicircular base (r) = 14 cmHeight of solid (h) = 56 cm

Curved surface area = 2prh2

= 227 × 14 × 56 cm2

= 2464 cm2

Total surface area = Area of two semicircular base + curved surface area + area of rectangular surface

3.4 SphereSphere is a solid object having smooth curved surface so that each and ev-ery point on its surface is equidistant from a fixed point inside it. The fixed point is called center of the sphere and the distance between center and any point on the surface is called radius of sphere. Globe, volleyball, shot put are some examples of sphere.The figure shown alongside is a sphere. O is the center and P is the point on the surface. OP is the radius of sphere.

When a sphere is cut along its diameter, two half spheres will be formed. The half spheres are called hemisphere. The cross section of hemisphere is called the great circle. The radius of the sphere and that of the great circle is same.Area and volume of a sphereLet us take a hollow tennis or rubber ball and cut off it into two equal halves. Again cut off each into two equal halves and continue the process so that they can be flattened and spread on the square graph paper. With the help of graph paper we can find the approximate area of each half. By adding the area occupied by two halves on the graph, we can get the total surface area of the sphere.By an experiment it is known that if we divide the area obtained above by the square

of diameter of same sphere, the result obtained is approximately equal to 3.14 or 227 or p .

So, Surface area of sphere(Diameter)2

= p

Or, Ad2 = p where A is the surface area of sphere and is

its diameter. Or, A = pd2

Or, A = p(2r)2

Thus, surface area of sphere (A) = 4pr2

To find the volume of a sphere, we find diameter of sphere first.

Square base pyramidA square based pyramid is shown in the figure.ABCD is a square base of each side ‘a’. V is the vertex of pyramid. Triangle ΔVAB, ∆VBC, ∆VDC and ∆ VAD are four congruent triangular faces.The perpendicular drawn from the vertex to the base is the height of pyramid.Here, VO = h is the height. The perpendicular drawn from the vertex to opposite side of each triangular face is the slant height.

3.5 Pyramid A pyramid is a solid with polygonal base and triangular faces with common vertex. Line drawn from vertex to center of the base is called the height of the pyramid. When the height is perpendicular to the base, the pyramid is called right pyramid. The perpendicular drawn from the vertex to any side of its base is called the slant height for the face consisting that side.The polygonal base of pyramid may be a triangular, rectangular, square, pentagonal, hexagonal etc.Here, we discuss about the total surface area, area of triangular surfaces and volume of square based, rectangular based and equilateral triangular based pyramid.

Example 2 : a. A square base pyramid has base area 100 m2 and total surface area 360m2. Find area of triangular faces. Solution: Here,Area of square base of pyramid = 100 m2

Total surface area = 360 m2

We know that,Total surface area of pyramid = Area of base + Area of triangular facesOr, 360 = 100 + Area of triangular facesOr, Area of triangular faces = 360 – 100 = 260 Thus, area of triangular faces is 260 cm2.b. The slant height and the length of base of a square base of a square base pyramid

School Mathematics Book - 10116

We know,

Volume of pyramid (V) = 13 Area of square base × height

Or, 750 = 13 × a2 × 10

Or, a2 = 750 × 310

Or, a2 = 225 Or, a = 15 cm Now, total surface area of pyramid = a2 + 2al = 152 + 2 × 15 × 12.5 = 600 cm2

Thus, total surface area of pyramid is 600 cm2.

Example 3 : The alongside figure is a square based pyramid whose length of the base and slant height are in the ratio 3:5. If its total surface area is 624 cm2, find its vertical height.

Or, a2 + 2al = 624Or, (3x) 2 + 2 × 3x × 5x = 624Or, 39x2 = 624

Or, x2 = 62439

Or, x = 16 = 4∴ a = 3x = 3 × 4 = 12 cm l = 5x = 5 × 4 = 20 cm

In the given figure OP is the height of pyramid.

Let OP = h, OM = 12 × (AB) = 1

2 × 12cm = 6cm

Volume of pyramid = 384 cm3

Or, 13 a2h = 384

Or, 13

Example 5 : Find the volume of the given triangular base pyramid.

Solution: Here,Sides of triangular base are a = 6 cm, b = 5 cm, c = 5cm

3.6 Cone

A cone is a solid object having circular base and a smooth curved surface that symmetrically ends at a point in the space. The point is called the vertex of the cone. The line joining the vertex to the center of base is called height of the cone. The line joining the vertex to any point on the circumference of the circular base is called generator or slant height.

Surface area of cone

Curved surface area and total surface area Let us take a hollow cone made up of paper. Cut the cone along its slant height. We get a sector whose radius is r and arc length l. Let’s divide the sector into 10 equal parts as shown in the figure.These parts are cut and arranged as shown in the last figure.

The last figure is approximate rectangle having length pr and breadth l.Now area of rectangle = length × breadth

= pr × l

∴ Curved surface area of cone = prl

∴ Area of circular base = pr2

Total surface area = pr (r + l)

We know that cone is a circular pyramid. Area of circular base is pr2 and height is h.

The volume of pyramid = 13 × Area of circular base × height

Volume of a cone (circular pyramid) = 13 × Area of circular base × height

= 13

× pr2 × h = 13 pr2 × h

The following examples will illustrate the use of the above formulae for solving problems.

Example 1 : If the height of the cone is 9 cm and its base area is 23 cm2, find the volume of the cone.Solution : Here,Height of the cone(h) = 9 cmBase area of the cone(A) = 23 cm2 Now, we know that

Volume of the cone (V) = 13

× pr2 h

= 13

× A × h

= 13

× 23 × 9

= 23 × 3 = 69 cm3

Hence, the volume of cone is 69 cm3.

Example 3 : How many meters of cloth 4 m wide will be required to make a conical tent when base radius is 12 m and height is 16 m?Solution : Here, Breadth of the cloth (b) = 4 mBase radius of the cone (r) = 12 mHeight of the cone (h) = 16m Let length of the cloth be’x’ mNow , we knowTotal surface area of the cloth = l × b = x × 4 = 4x cm2

∴ Total surface area of the cloth = 4 x cm2

For a cone, we know l2 = h2 + r2

= 162 + 122

= 256 + 144

Example 2 : The total surface area of a cone is 4928 cm2. If the sum of the radius of the base and slant height of the cone is 49 cm, find the radius of the base.Solution : Here,Total surface area of cone (TSA) = 4928 cm2

sum of radius and slant height (r+l)= 49 cmNow, we knowTotal surface area of cone (TSA) = pr (r + l )

Or, 4928 = 227

× r × 49

Or, r = 4928 × 722 × 49

∴ r = 32 cmHence, the radius of the base is 32 cm.

= 400 ∴ l = 20 m.We know,

curved surface area of conical tent = pr l

= 227

∴ Total surface area of conical tent = 84487

Now, we knowTotal surface area of cloth = curved surface area of conical tent

Or, 4 x = 52807

Or, x = 528028

∴ x = 188.57 m.Thus, the length of the cloth is 188.57 cm.Example 4: The radius and slant height of a cone are in the ration of 3:5. If its total

surface area is 21127

sq.cm, find the slant height.

Solution: Here,

Total surface area of cone = 21127

cm2

r : l = 3 : 5

or, r = 3l5

We know,

Total surface area of the cone (TSA) = 21127

Or, pr (r + l) = 21127

Or, p× 3l5

( 3l5

+1) = 21127

Or, 227

Or, l(8l) = 2112 × 7 × 5 × 57 × 22 × 3

School Mathematics Book - 10 123

Or, 8l2 = 800 Or, l2 = 100 ∴l = 10 cmHence, length of the slant height is 10 cm. Example 5 : Find total surface area and volume of the following cones.

Solution: Herea. Height of cone (h) = 8 cm

Slant height (l) = 10 cm In a right circular cone,h2 + r2 = l2

or, 82 + r2 = 102

or, r2 = 100 – 64or, r = 36 = 6 cm

Total surface area = pr (r + l)

= 227 × 6 × (10 + 6)

= 301.71 cm2

Volume of the cone = 13 pr 2h

= 13

× 227 × 6 × 6 × 8

= 301.71 cm3

Thus, total surface are of the cone is 301.71 cm2 and volume is 301.71cm3.

b. Diameter of circular base (d) = 12 cm

Radius of circular base (r) = 122 = 6 cm

Height of cone (h) = 10 cmLet slant height = l cmThen l2 = r2 + h2

Or, l2 = 62 + 102

Or, l = 136 = 11.66 cmNow total surface area = pr (r + l)

= 227

× 6 × (11.66 +6)

= 333.01 cm2

Volume of the cone = 13 pr 2h

= 13

× 227 × 6 × 6 × 10

= 377.14 cm3

Thus, total surface are of the cone is 330.01 cm2 and volume is 377. 14 cm3

School Mathematics Book - 10124

Example 6 : Find the curved surface area, total surface area and volume of the given cone.

Solution:Diameter of circular base (d) = 12 cm

Radius of circular base (r) = 122 = 6 cm

Slant height (l) = 12 cmLet height of pyramid = h cmWe know,l2 = r2 + h2

or, 122 = 62 + h2

or, h2 = 144 – 36or, h = 108 = 10.39 cm

Curved surface area = pr l

= 227

× 6 × 12

= 226.28 cm2

∴ Total surface area = pr (r + l)

= 227

× 6 × (12 + 6)

= 339.42 cm2

∴Volume of cone = 13 pr 2h

= 13 × 22

7 × 6 × 6 × 10.39

= 391.85 cm3

Hence, the curved surface area of cone is 226.28 cm2, total surface area is 339.42 cm2 and volume is 391.85 cm3

Example 7 : The curved surface area and the total surface area of a cone are 550 cm2 and 704 cm2 respectively, find its slant height.

Solution: Here,Curved surface area of a cone = 550 cm2

Or, prl = 550 ………….. (1)Total surface area = 704 cm2

Or, prl + pr2 = 704

School Mathematics Book - 10 125

Or, pr 2 = 704 – 550

Or, r2 = 154 × 7 22

Or, r = 49 = 7 cmPutting value of r in equation 1

prl = 550

Or, l = 550 × 722 × 7

l = 25Thus, the slant height of cone is 25 cm.

Example 8 : Find the depth of a conical flask having diameter of circular base 14 cm and that can hold 600 ml of water.

Solution: Here,Diameter of circular base (d) = 14 cm

∴ Radius of circular base (r) = 142 = 7 cm

Capacity of flask = 600 ml∴ Volume of flask = 600 cm3 (∴ 1 l = 1000 cm3 and 1l = 1000 ml)Volume of cube (V) = 600cm3

Or, 13 pr2h = 600

Or, 13 × 22

7 × 7 × 7 × h = 600

Or, h = 600 × 322 × 7 = 11.68 cm

∴ Depth of the conical flask is 11.68 cm.

3.7 Combined SolidsIn this topic, we are going to study the problems about the surface area and volume of combined solids. The combined solids may be of a cone and a hemisphere, a cylinder and a cone, a prism and a cone and so on.Example 1 : Find the curved surface area, total surface area and volume of the following objects.

a. Solution:Radius of circular base(r) = 5cmHeight of cylinder (h) = 24cmSlant height of cone(l) = 13cmHeight of cone(h1) = l2 - r2

= 132 - 52

= 144 = 12cm

Curved surface area of solid object = curved surface area of cylindrical portion + curved surface area of conical portion

= 2πrh + πrl = πr (2h + l)

= 227

× 5 (2 × 24 + 13)

= 1107 × 61

= 958.57cm2

Total surface area of the solid = Area of circular base of cylinder + CSA of cylinder + CSA of cone = πr2 + 2πrh + πrl

= 227 × 52 + 2 × 22

7 × 22

7 × 5 × 24 + 22

= 227 × 5 (5 + 2 × 24 + 13)

h1)

= 227

× 5 × 5(24 + 1

× 28

= 2200 cm3

Thus, curved surface area of solid is 958.57 cm2 , total surface area is 1037.14 cm2 and volume is 2200 cm3.

b. Solution:Diameter of circular base (d)= 14 cmRadius of circular base (r) = 7 cmTotal height of solid = 31 cmHeight of the cone (h) = Total height of solid – Radius of base = 31 cm – 7 cm = 24 cm

Slant height of cone (l) = r2 + h2

= 52 +242

= 49 + 576

= 625 = 25 cmCurved surface area of solid = CSA of hemisphere + CSA of cone = 2πr2 + πrl = πr(2r + l)

= 227

× 7 (2 × 7 + 25)

= 22 × 39 = 858 cm2

Here, total surface area and curved surface area of the solid is same. Therefore total surface area is also 858 cm2.

Volume of solid = Volume of hemisphere + Volume of cone

× 38 = 1950.66 cm3

Thus, curved surface area of solid is 858 cm2, total surface area is 858 cm2 and volume is 1950.66 cm3.

c. Solution:Total height of solid 94 cmHeight of the cylindrical portion (h) = 80 cm ∴ Radius of base = height of hemisphere (r)= 94 cm – 80 cm = 14 cm Curved surface area of solid = CSA of cylinder + CSA of hemisphere = 2πrh + 2πr2

= 2 πr(h + r)

= 2 × 227 × 14(80 + 14)

= 88 × 94 = 8272 cm2

Total surface are of solid = Area of circular base of cylindrical portion + CSA of cylindrical portion + CSA of hemispherical end = πr2 + 2πrh + 2πr2

= πr(r + 2h + 2r)

= 227

× 14 (14 + 2 × 80 + 2 × 14)

= 44 × 202 = 8888cm2

Volume of solid = volume of cylinder + volume of hemisphere

= πr2h + 23 πr3

= πr2( h + 23 r)

= 227 × 14 × 14 (80 + 2

3 × 14)

= 22 × 28 (80 + 9.33) = 55027.28 cm3

Thus, curved surface area of solid is 8272 cm2, total surface area is 8888 cm2 and volume is 55027.28 cm3.

School Mathematics Book - 10132

Example 2 : A figure is a solid composed of cylinder with hemisphere at one end. If the total surface area and the height of the solid are 770 cm2 and 14 cm respectively, find the height of the cylinder.

Solution : Here, Total surface area of solid (TSA) = 770 cm2

Total height of the solid = 14 cm Let height of the cylinder be ‘h’ and ‘r’ be the radius of the hemisphere.

Then, h + r = 14 cmOr r= 14-h ……… (i)We know, Total surface area of given solid = Surface area of cylinder + Surface area of hemisphere

770 = 2 prh + pr2+ 2pr2

or, 770 = 2prh + 3pr2

or, 770 = pr(2h + 3r )

or, 770 = 227 × (14- h ) {2h + 3(14-h)}

or, 770 × 722 = (14 – h) ( 2h +42 – 3h )

or, 245 = (14 – h) ( 42 –h )or, 245 = 588 – 14h – 42h + h2

or, 245 = 588 -56h + h2

or, h2 – 56 h + 588 -245 = 0or, h2 – 56 h + 343=0or, h2 – 49 h- 7h + 343 = 0or, h(h- 49) – 7( h – 49) = 0or, (h- 49 ) (h- 7) = 0Either h- 49 = 0 or h – 7 = 0 or , h = 49 (which is not possible) Hence, the height of the cylinder is 7 cm.

3.8 Application of MensurationIn earlier classes, we have learnt to find the area and volume of different objects like cube, cuboid, cylinder, sphere, cone and hemisphere. When we see around us we are using different objects which are the combination of these solids such as an ice cream cone full of ice cream and hemispherical on one end of cylinder, a capsule which is in the form of a cylinder and two hemispherical end, sharpened pencil etc. In this topic, we shall find the surface area and volume of combinations of solids, we shall also find the estimation for carpeting ,painting and costing etc.

Worked Out Examples

Example 1 : What is the capacity of a tank having length 15 m, breadth 7 m and height 8 m ?

Solution : Here,

Length of the tank (l) = 15 m

Breadth of the tank (b) = 7 m

Height of the tank (h) = 8 m

Volume of the tank (V) = ?

We, know

Volume (V) = l × b × h

= 15 × 7 × 8

= 840 m3

∴ The volume of the tank is 840 m3.

We have,

Capacity of tank = Volume of the tank = Volume of the water = 840 m3

Now, we know,

1 m3 = 1000 l of water

840 m3 = 1000 × 840 l of water = 840000 litres of water.

Hence, the capacity of the tank is 840000 litres .

Example 2 : The cost of painting the outside surface of closed cylindrical oil tank at Rs 2 per square centimeter is Rs 792.The height of the tank is 6 times the radius of the base of the tank.Calculate the volume of the tank.

Solution : Here, Let radius of base of the tank r cm , height of the tank (h) = 6 r cm

School Mathematics Book - 10136

Outer surface area of cylindrical tank = Total cost of paintingRate of painting

2 pr ( r + h) = 7922

Or, 2 pr (r + 6r) = 396

Or, 2 × 227 × r × 7r = 396

Or, r2 = 9 cm

∴ r = 3 cm

∴ h = 6r = 6 × 3 cm = 18 cm

Now, volume of the tank = pr2h

= 227 × 32 × 18

= 509.14 cm3

Thus, volume of the tank is 509.14 cm3.

Example 3 : The adjoining figure shows the kitchen garden of a house. Estimate the cost of fencing with 5 rounds of fencing wire. Per meter cost of wire is Rs 80. Labour wage is Rs 850 per labour per day. If it takes 4 days to complete the fencing for 2 labours, find the cost of fencing the garden.

Solution: Here, Perimeter of kitchen garden = PQ + QR + SR + PS

= 20m + 15m + 18m + 10m = 63mThe length of wire required for 5 rounds of fencing = 5 × 63m

= 315mThe cost of wire = Rs 80 × 315 = Rs 25200The wages of 2 labours for 1 day = Rs 2 × 850 = Rs 1700The wages of 4 labours for 1 day = Rs 4 × 1700 = Rs 6800 Total cost of fencing the garden = Rs 25200 + Rs 6800 = Rs 32000

Hence, the cost of fencing the garden is Rs 32000.

Example 4: An umbrella shaped tent is made by stitching 10 triangular pieces of clothes which are equal in area. If the three sides of triangular pieces are 10 m, 16 m and 20 m. Find the area of cloth required to make an umbrella and total cost for making an umbrella if the rate of cloth is Rs 25 per square meter.

Solution : Here,

Let the length of sides of triangle are ‘a’ m , ‘b’ m and ‘c’ m

Then, a = 10 m , b = 16 m , c = 20 m.

We know, s = a + b+ c2

= 10 + 16 + 202

= 23 m

Now,Area of each triangular piece of cloth = s(s - a) (s - b) (s - c)

= 23 (23 -10) (23 - 16) (23 - 20)

= 23 × 13 × 7 × 3

= 6279

= 79.24 m2

∴ Total area of cloth to make an umbrella = 10 × 79.24 m2 = 792.40 m2.

Now, cost of making 1 m2 umbrella = Rs 25

∴ cost of making 792.40 m2 umbrella = Rs 19810.

Hence, total area of cloth for making an umbrella is 792.40 m2 and total cost is Rs 19810.

Example 5 : Prashant Mali made an arrangement for accommodation for 100 guests in his birthday party. A conical tent is built such that each person has 2 square meter space on the ground and 10 cubic meter of air to breathe in average. What should be the height of the tent ? Also, calculate the cost of carpet to cover the floor of the tent at the rate of Rs 250 per square meter.

Solution : Here,

Area of circular base of conical tent(A) = 100 × 2 = 200 m2

Volume of tent (V) = 100 × 10 = 1000 m3

∴ Height of tent = 3vA

= 3 × 1000200

= 15 mAgain, Area of carpet to cover the floor of the tent = Base area of tent

School Mathematics Book - 10138

= 200 m2

Now,

Cost of carpeting 1 m2 area = Rs 250

Cost of carpeting 200 m2 area = Rs 250 × 200

= Rs 50000Hence, the height of the tent is 15m and cost of carpeting is Rs 50000.

Example 6 : A man wants to build a cylindrical water tank having diameter 3.5 m .If the height of the tank is 4 m, how much water can it hold? Also find the cost of plastering the tank at the rate of Rs 175 per square meter.

Solution : Here,

Diameter of cylindrical water tank (d) = 3.5 cm

Radius of cylindrical water tank (r) = 3.52

cm = 1.75 cm

Height of cylindrical water tank (h) = 4 mNow, we knowVolume of tank = pr2h

= 227 ×(1.75)2 × 4

= 38.5 m3

= 38.5 × 1000 l = 38500 l

Again,

Total area for plastering = Area of base + Area of curved surface = pr2 + 2 prh

= pr (r + 2h)

= 227

× 1.75 (1.75 + 2 × 4)

= 53.625 cm2

Now,

Cost of plastering of 1 m2 area = Rs 175

∴ Cost of plastering of 53.625 m2 area = Rs 175 × 53.625 = Rs 9384.38

Hence, the capacity of the water tank is 38500 l and total cost of plastering is Rs 9384.38

Note : At least 3 marks questions are asked.4.1 H.C.F. of Algebraic expressionsThe highest common factor(HCF) of two or more algebraic expressions is the expression of highest dimension which divides each of them without remainder.

Let us consider two monomial expressions 4x3y2 and 6x2y3

Here, all the possible factors of 4x3y2 = 2×2×x×x×x×y×y

Also, the possible factors of 6x2y3 = 2×3×x×x×y×y×y

The factors common to both the expressions are 2,x,x,y and y. The product of these common factors is 2.x.x.y.y i.e. 2x2y2. It is the highest common factor (H.C.F.) of both the expressions. Therefore, the H.C.F. of 4x3y2 and 6x2y3 is 2x2y2.

The H.C.F. divides both the expressions exactly.

Similarly, let us consider algebraic expressions; 3a4 b3-9a2b3 and 6a3b- 3a2b2 - 3ab3.

On factorization of the given expressions,

First expression = 3a4 b3- 3a2b3

= 3a2b(a2 - b2)

= 3a2b(a+b)(a - b)

Second expression = 6a3b - 3a2b2 - 3ab3

= 3ab{2a2 - ab - b2}

= 3ab{2a2 - (2 - 1)ab - b2}

= 3ab{2a2 - 2ab + ab - b2}

= 3ab{2a(a - b)+b(a - b)}

= 3ab(a-b) (2a+b)

The common factors of both the expression are 3,a,b and (a-b). The product of these common factors is 3ab(a-b). Therefore, the Highest Common Factors (H.C.F.) of the given expressions is 3ab(a-b).

School Mathematics Book - 10144

Steps for finding the H.C.F. of two or more than two algebraic expression:From the above discussion we can easily find the H.C.F. of two or more than two algebraic expression by following the given steps:

1. Factorize each of the expression.2. Take all the common factors of each of the expression.3. Express all the common factors in the product form.4. Thus, H.C.F. = common factors of all the expressions.5. If there is no any common factor to all the polynomials, then the H.C.F. is one.

Example 1 : Find the H.C.F. of (a + b) and (a + b) (a – b)

Solution : Here,First expression = ( a + b )Second expression = ( a + b) (a – b)Common factor = ( a + b )∴ H.C.F. = ( a + b )Hence, the required H.C.F. is ( a + b )

Example 2 : Find the H.C.F. of a3-4a and a4-8a.Solution : Here,

First expression = a3–4a = a(a2–4) = a(a2–22) [∵ a2–b2 = (a+b)(a–b)] = a(a+2)(a–2)

Second expression = a4 – 8a = a(a3– 8) = a(a3–23) [∵ a3-b3 = (a–b)(a2+ab+b2)] = a(a–2) (a2+2a+22) = a(a–2) (a2+2a+4)

Common factors = a × (a – 2)∴ H.C.F. = a(a–2)

Hence, the required H.C.F. of given expressions is a(a–2).

Example 3 : Find the H.C.F. of x3y+y4 and x4+x2y2+y4.Solution : Here,

First expression = x3y+y4

= y(x3+y3) = y(x+y)(x2-xy+y2) [∵ a3+b3 = (a+b)(a2–ab+b2)]Second expression = x4+x2y2+y4

= x4+y4+x2y2 = (x2)2 + (y2) + x2y2 = (x2 + y2)2 - 2x2y2+x2y2 [∵ a2+b2 = (a + b)2 - 2ab] = (x2 + y2)2 - x2y2 = (x2 + y2) - (xy)2 [∵ a2–b2 = (a+b)(a–b)] = (x2 + xy + y2) (x2 - xy + y2)Common factor = (x2 - xy + y2)∴ H.C.F. = (x2 - xy + y2)Hence, the required H.C.F. of given expressions is (x2 - xy + y2)

Example 4 : Find the H.C.F. of a2+2ab+b2– c2, b2+c2+2bc– a2 and c2+2ca– b2+a2

Solution : Here,First expression = a2+2ab+b2-c2

= (a+b)2- c2

= (a+b+c) (a+b-c)Second expression = b2+c2+2bc - a2

= b2+2bc +c2 - a2

= (b+c)2 - a2

= (b+c+a) (b+c-a) = (a+b+c) (b+c-a)

∴ H.C.F. = (a+b+c)

Example 5: Find the H.C.F. of m6 – 1 , m5 + m3 + m , m3 +2m2 + 2m + 1Solution : Here,

First expression = m6 – 1 = ( m3 )2 – (1)2

= ( m3 – 1 ) ( m3 + 1 ) = ( m – 1 ) ( m2 + m + 1 ) ( m +1 ) ( m2 – m + 1 )

Third expression = c2+2ca– b2+a2

= c2+2ca+a2 - b2

= (c+a)2 - b2

= (c+a+b) (c+a-b) = (a+b+c) (c+a-b)

Second expression = m5 + m3 + m = m (m4 + m2 + 1 ) = m { (m2)2 + (1)2 + m2 } = m { ( m2 + 1 )2 – 2 m2 + m2 } = m { ( m2 + 1 )2 – m2 } = m ( m2 + m +1 ) ( m2 – m +1 )Third expression = m3 +2m2 + 2m + 1 = m3 + 13 + 2m ( m + 1 ) = ( m +1 ) ( m2 – m + 1 ) + 2m ( m + 1 ) = ( m +1 ) { m2 – m + 1 + 2m } = ( m +1 ) ( m2 + m + 1 } ∴ Common factor = ( m2 + m + 1 ) ∴ H.C.F. is ( m2 + m + 1 }

4.2 Lowest Common Multiple (L.C.M.)Let us consider two monomial expressions 4x3y2 and 6x2y3

Here, all the possible factors of 4x3y2 = 2 × 2 × x × x × x × y × yAlso, the possible factors of 6x2y3 = 2 × 3 × x × x × y × y × yAll the common factors of the given expression = 2 × x × x × y × yThe remaining factors of 4x3y2 = 2xThe remaining factors of 6x2y3 = 3yThe product of common factors and remaining factors = 2x2y2 .2x.3y = 12x3y3

Here, 12x3y3 is the lowest expression which is multiple of both the expression. Therefore, 12x3y3 is said to be the Lowest Common Multiple (L.C.M.) of the given expression.

Similarly, let us consider the algebraic expression x2-9 and 3x2 + 81

On factorization of the above expression. we get,

First expression = (x2-9)

= (x2-32) [∵ a2-b2 = (a+b)(a-b)]

= (x+3)(x-3)

Second expression = 3x3+81

= 3(x3+27)

= 3(x3+33) [∵ a3+b3 = (a+b)(a2-ab+b2)]

= 3(x+3)(x2-3x+32)

= 3(x+3)(x2-3x+9)

The common factor of the given expressions = (x+3)

The remaining factors of x2-9 = (x-3)

The remaining factors of 3x3+81 = 3(x2-3x+9)

The product of common factors and all the remaining factors = 3(x+3)(x-3)(x2-3x+9) = 3(x2-9)(x2-3x+9)

Therefore, the Lowest Common Multiple (L.C.M.) of the given expressions is 3(x2-9)(x2-3x+9).

Steps for finding the L.C.M. of two or more than two algebric expression:

From the above discussion we can easily find the L.C.M. of two or more than two algebric expression by following the given steps:

School Mathematics Book - 10 149

Example 1 : Find the L.C.M. of 4x4+4x2y2+4y4 and 6x3-6y3.Solution : Here,First expression = 4x4+4x2y2+4y4

= 4(x4+x2y2+y4)

= 4(x4+y4+x2y2)

= 4{(x2+y2)2-2x2y2+x2y2}

= 4{(x2+y2)2-x2y2}

= 4{(x2+y2)2-(xy)2}

= 4{(x2+y2+xy)(x2+y2-xy)}

= 4{(x2+xy +y2)(x2-xy +y2)}

= 2×2{(x2+xy +y2)(x2-xy +y2)}

Example 2 : Find the L.C.M. of x3-2x2y+2xy2-y3,x3+y3 and x4-y4

Solution: Here,First expression = x3-2x2y+2xy2-y3

= x3-y3-2x2y+2xy2

= (x-y)(x2+xy+y2)-2xy(x-y)

= (x-y)(x2+xy+y2-2xy)

= (x-y)(x2-xy+y2)

Second expression = x3+y3

= (x+y)(x2-xy+y2)

Worked Out Examples

1. Factorize each of the expression

2. Take the common factors of each of the expression.

3. If there are more than two expressions, take the factors which are common to any two or more expressions.

4. Take the remaining factors of each of the expression.

5. Express all the common factors and remaining factors in the product form.

6. Thus, L.C.M. = common factors × remaining factors.

Second expression = 6x3-6y3

= 6(x3-y3)

= 6(x-y)(x2+xy+y2)

= 2×3(x-y)(x2+xy+y2)

L.C.M. = 2(x2+xy+y2).2(x2-xy +y2).3(x-y)

= 12(x-y)(x2+xy +y2)(x2-xy +y2)

Third expression = x4-y4

= (x2)2-(y2)2

= (x2+y2)(x2-y2)

= (x2+y2)(x+y)(x-y)

∴ L.C.M. = (x+y)(x-y)(x2-xy+y2)(x2+y2)

= (x2-y2)(x2+y2)(x2-xy+y2)

= (x4-y4)(x2-xy+y2)

Example 3 : Find the L.C.M. of a2-18a-19+20b-b2,a2+a-b2+b and a2-b2+2b-1

Solution: Here,First expression = a2-18a-19+20b-b2

= a2-18a+81-100+20b-b2

= a2-18a+92-100+20b-b2

= (a-9)2-(100-20b+b2)

= (a-9)2-(102-20b+b2)

= (a-9)2-(10-b)2

= {(a-9)+(10-b)}{(a-9)-(10-b)}

= (a-9+10-b)(a-9-10+b)

= (a-b+1)(a+b-19)

Second expression = a2+a-b2+b

= a2 -b2+a +b

= (a-b)(a+b)+1(a+b)

= (a+b)(a-b+1)

∴ L.C.M. = (a+b) (a+b-1)(a-b+1)(a+b-19)

Example 4 : Find the L.C.M. and H.C.F. of: x2+5x+6 and x3+4x2+4x+3Solution :

= x2+(3+2)x+6

= x2+3x+2x+6

= x(x+3)+2(x+3)

Third expression = a2-b2+2b-1

= a2-(b2-2b+1)

= a2-(b-1)2

= {a-(b-1)}{a+(b-1)}

= (a-b+1)(a+b-1)

= (x+3)(x+2)

Thus, if there is a common factor, it is either (x+3) or (x+2). But, (x+2) cannot be the factor second expression as the last term is 3. So, let us try with ( x +3)

Second expression = x3+4x2+4x+3

[Balancing the expression x3+4x2+4x+3 by adding or subtracting the required term]

= x2(x+3)+x2+4x+3

= x2(x+3)+x(x+3)+x+3

= x2(x+3)+x(x+3)+1(x+3)

= (x+3)(x2+x+1)

∴ L.C.M. = (x+3)(x+2)(x2+x+1)Example 5 : Find the L.C.M. of : a4 + a2 + 1 , a3 – 1 and a3 – a2 + aSolution : Here,First expression = a4 + a2 + 1

= { (a2)2 + (1)2 + a2 } = { ( a2 + 1 )2 – 2 a2 + a2 } = { ( a2 + 1 )2 – a2 } = ( a2 + a +1 ) ( a2 – a +1 )

L.C.M. = Common factor × Remaining factor = a ( a – 1 ) ( a2 + a + 1 ) ( a2 – a + 1 )Thus, the required L.C.M. is a (a – 1) (a2 + a + 1) (a2 – a + 1)

4.3 Simplification of Algebraic ExpressionRational expressionRational algebraic expressions are those expression which can be expressed in the

form pq

where q ≠ 0.

The expression y2 ,

5x3bc5 ,

a2 - b2

a+b ,

3x2y + 5x2 + 6x-y are few examples of rational

expression.

Simplification of rational expression

To simplify rational algebraic fraction we have to follow some process as numeric fraction i.e. rational number. The process of addition and subtraction of two or more algebraic function consists of the following steps:

1. Factorize the denominator and numerator if required.6

a2 - 9 +

13 - a

- 12(a+3)2

= 6

a2 - 32 +

13 - a

-

12(a+3) (a+3)

= 6

(a+3) (a-3) +

13 - a

-

12(a+3) (a+3)

2. Change the sign of the denominator of fraction (or fraction as a whole) in order to arrange the denominator in ascending order of variable.

= 6

(a+3) (a-3) -

1(a-3)

-

12(a+3) (a+3)

So, here we have to change the sign of the denominator of the second fraction and write the expression as:

= 6

(a+3) (a-3) -

1(a-3)

-

12(a+3) (a+3)

3. Find the L.C.M. of denominator of each fraction:

L.C.M. of (a+3)(a-3),(a-3) and 2(a+3)(a+3) is;

L.C.M. 2(a+3)(a-3)(a+3)

4. Divide the L.C.M. of the denominator of first fraction and multiply the quo-tient with numerator of the fraction. Follow same process for other fraction.

6 × 2 (a +3) - 2(a+3)2 - (a - 3)

2(a+3) (a+3) (a -3)

School Mathematics Book - 10154

5. Simplify the numerator and reduce the last fraction into lowest term.

=12 (a+3) -2 (a+3)2 - (a-3)

2(a+3) (a+3) (a-3)

= 12 (a+3) -2 (a+3)2 - (a-3)2(a+3) (a+3) (a-3)

= 12a + 36 - 2 (a2+6a+9) - (a-3)2(a+3)2 (a-3)

= 12a + 36 - 2a2-12a -18-a+32(a+3)2 (a-3)

= 21 - 2a2 - a2(a+3)2 (a-3)

= 21 - a - 2a2

2(a+3)2 (a-3)

6. If two or more algebraic functions with common denominator are to be added or subtracted, we should add or subtract the numerators. The denominator of the resulting fraction is the common denominator of the given fractions.

For example:x

x2 - y2 - y

x2 - y2

= x-y

x2 - y2

= (x-y)

(x+y) (x-y)

= 1

(x + y)Sign rules

1. The value of fraction is not changed if we change the signs of both nu-merator and denominator.

Example: +a+b

= - a- b

- a- b

= + a+ b

= 21 - (7-6) a-2a2

2(a+3)2 (a-3)

= 21 - 7a+6a-2a2

2(a+3)2 (a-3)

= 7(3-a) + 2a(3-a)2(a+3)2 (a-3)

= (3-a) (7 + 2a)2(a+3)2 (a-3)

= - (a -3) (7 + 2a)2(a+3)2 (a-3)

= - (7 + 2a)2 (a+3)2

School Mathematics Book - 10 155

- a+b

= + a- b

+a- b

= - a+ b

2. The signs of a fraction may be changed by changing the sign of every term in the numerator or denominator.

Example: aa - b

=

- a- a + b

=

- ab - a

- pp - q

=

p-p + q

=

pq - p

Example 1 : Simplify : x x + 2y - x

2y - x - 8y2

x2 - 4y2

Solution : Here,

x x + 2y - x

2y - x - 8y2

x2 - 4y2

= x x + 2y + x

x - 2y - 8y2

x2 - 4y2

= x x + 2y + x

x - 2y - 8y2

(x+2y) (x-2y)

= x(x-2y) + x(x+2y) - 8y 2 (x+2y) (x-2y)

= x2 - 2xy+x2+2yx -8y2

(x+2y) (x-2y)

= 2x2 - 8y 2

(x+2y) (x-2y)

= 2(x2 - 4y2)(x+2y) (x-2y)

= 2{x2 - (2y)2}(x+2y) (x-2y)

(1-x) (2 - x)

= 1(x-1) - 2(x-2) + 3(x-3)(x -1) (x-2) (x-3)

= x-1-2x + 4 + 3x -9(x -1) (x-2) (x-3)

= 2x - 6(x -1) (x-2) (x-3)

4.4 IndicesMeaning of indicesBy general multiplication we know that,

a.a = a2

a.a.a = a3

a.a.a.a = a4

Similarly, a.a.a.a..........to m = am, where m is a positive integer. = am is read as "a to the power m". Here, 'a' is called the base and 'm' is called the index or power or exponent. Indices is the plural form of index.Laws of IndicesLaws of indices are certain verified rules which are used in the operation of Indices of algebric term. The verification of these laws have been already discussed in our earlier grades, however we are just reviewing these laws to solve the problems related to indices. These laws can be summarized in the table given below.

Solution : Here, 52x+1 = 252x-1

or, 52x+1 = (52)2x-1

or, 52x+1 = (5)4x-2

Since the bases are same,

∴2x+1 = 4x-2

or, 4x-2x = 3

or, 2x = 3

∴ x = 32

4.5 Exponential Equation

The equation of the form, ax = b, where 'a' is base and 'x' is the index or exponent is called exponential equation.

22x+1 = 16, 92-x = 81 are few examples of exponential equations.

Solving exponential equations

Exponential equations can be solved by using the axioms.

“If ax = ab, then x must be equal to b”. Therefore, we can convinently solve exponential equation if we follow the steps given below:

a. Firstly, simplify the given equation so that both the sides of the equation have the same base.

b. Use the above axiom (ax = ab), to equate their exponents and powers.

Example 2 : Solve : 3x+2+3x+1 = 1 13

Solution :

3x+2+3x+1 = 1 13

or, 3x.32+3x.31 = 43

or, 3x(32+3) = 43

or, 3x(9+3) = 43

or, 3x = 19

or, 3x = 3-2

∴ x = – 2

Since the bases are same,

∴ x = –2Example 4 : Solve : ( 2 )x+4 = ( 2

or, 3(x+4) = 2(2x+5)

or, 3x+12 = 4x+10

or, 4x –3x + 10 - 12 = 0

or, x - 2 = 0

∴ x = 2

Example 6 : Solve : 4x – 6.2x+1+32 = 0Solution: Here,

or, 4x – 6.2x+1+32 = 0

or, (22)x – 6.2x.21+32 = 0

or, (2x)2 – 12.2x+32 = 0

Let, 2x = a

∴ a2 – 12a+32 = 0

or, a2– (8+4)a+32 = 0

or, a2–8a–4a+32 = 0

or, a(a–8) –4(a–8) = 0

or, (a–8)(a– 4) = 0

Either, a–8 = 0

∴a = 8

or, a–4 = 0

∴a = 4

The required values of x are 2 and 3.

Example 5 : Solve : 23x-5.ax-2 = 2x-2.a1-x

Solution : Here,

or, 23x-5.ax-2 = 2x-2.a1-x

or, 23x-5.ax-2

2x-2a1-x = 1

or, 23x-5-x+2 .ax-2-1+x = 1

or, 22x-3 . a2x-3 = 1

or, (2a)2x-3 = (2a)0

Since the bases are same,

or, 2x-3 = 0

or, 2x = 3

∴ x = 32

Now, Putting the value of a,

a = 8

or, 2x = 8

or, 2x = 23

Since the bases are same,

∴ x = 3

Again,

a = 4

or, 2x = 4

or, 2x = 22

Since the bases are same,

∴ x = 2

25

Solution: Here, 5x + 1

5x = 25 125

or, 5x + 15x = 626

25

Let, 5x = a

∴ a + 1a

= 62625

or, a2+1a

= 62625

or, 25(a2+1) = 626a

or, 25a2– 626a +25 = 0

or, 25a2– (625+1)a +25 = 0

or, 25a2– 625a-a +25 = 0

or, 25a(a–25) –1(a – 25) = 0

or, (a–25)(25a –1) = 0The required values of x are 2 and –2.

Either, a–25 = 0

∴ a = 25

or, 25a–1 = 0

∴ a = 125

Now, restoring the value of a,

a = 25

or, 5x = 25or, 5x = 52

Since the bases are same,∴ x = 2Again,

a = 125

or, 5x = 5-2

4.6 Rational Number

A rational number is a number that can be expressed as a fraction or ratio in the form pa

, where q ≠ 0 and p and q both are integers. When the fraction is divided out, it becomes a terminating or recurring decimal.

The examples of rational numbers are:

6 or 61

can be written as 6.0

-2 or can be written as -2.0

12

can be written as 0.5 (Terminating)

- 54

can be written as -1.25 (Terminating)

23

can be written as 0.66666...

= 0.6 (Non Terminating but recurring)

2155

can be written as 0.381818...

= 0.318 (Non Terminating but recurring)

5383

can be written as 0.62855421687...(Non Terminating but recurring)

Irrational numbers

Irrational number is a part of rational number that cannot be expressed as a fraction. Irrational numbers cannot be represented as terminating or repeating decimals. Irrational numbers are non-terminating or non repeating decimals.

Examples of Irrational numbers are

p = 3.141592654......

School Mathematics Book - 10 181

2 = 1.414213562......and 0.12122122212......Here, the major confusion may arise with some students whether p is the terminating decimal 3.14 but it is not, However while solving certain Mathematical problem it is customary to round off the value of p to 3.14 to make calculation convenient. p actually is a non-terminating decimal and is irrational number.Surds

A surd is a root of rational number of which the exact value cannot be determined.

Example: 3 , 73 , 1025 etc.

But, 9 , 83

are not surd because in 9 and 83 the radical sign (√) can be removed

and exact value 3 and 2 can be obtained.

In a surd, ba , a is called order, b is called radicand and √ is called radical sign.

Entire(Pure) or Mixed Surd

A surd is said to be entire or pure surd if it does not contain rational factor or term other than 1 and -1. For example, 5

3 , 18 , 3 , - 3 .

A surd is said to be mixed surd which has a rational factor other than 1 or -1. 3 5 , 23 , 3 7 - 5 8 are some example of mixed surd.

Simple and Compound Surds : A Surd consisting of a single term is called a simple surd. For example: 15 , 18

3 etc. On the other hand a surd consisting of the algebric

sum of two or more term is called a compound surd. For example, 2 + 3 , 5 + 2 7 etc.

Like and Unlike Surds

Surds having the same order and equal radicands such as 15 35 , 14 3

5 , - 2 35 etc.

are like surds. On the other hand, the surds which are not like are unlike surds. For example: 8 12

3 , 3 8 3 , -4 25, 28 etc. are unlike surds.

Operation of surdsAddition and subtraction of surds

We can add or subtract only like surds. To add or subtract the like surds, their rational factors or coefficient should be added or subtracted as in the case of algebraic terms with the same base and powers.

Examples

i. Add the following surds: 3 5 , 7 5 and 5 .

School Mathematics Book - 10182

Solution : Here,

= 3 5 + 7 5 + 5

= (3 + 7+1) 5

= 11 5

iii. Simplify: 5 8 + 6 81 3 - 2 50 - 3 243

Solution: Here,

5 8 + 6 81 3 - 2 50 - 3 243

= 5 4×2 + 6 27×33 - 2 2×25 - 3 3 × 8

3

= 10 2 + 18 33 - 10 2 - 6 3

3

= 0 + 12 33

= 12 33

Multiplication and Division of Surds

Two surds can be multiplied or divided only when they have the same order. To multiply or divide surds, we should multiply and divide the rational factors or coefficient as well as radicand.

Examples:

a. Multiply i. a × b × c ii. 5 2 × 7 3

Solution:

i. a × b × c = abc ii. 5 2 × 7 3 = 5×7 2×3 = 35 6

b. Divide:

i. xy by x ii. 904

4.7. Rationalization of Surds:

Let us consider the surd . Here, is an irritional number. But when we multiply 2 by 2 then we get 2 × 2 =( 2 )2 = 2 as a rational number. This process of changing a

surd into a rational number is called rationalization. Look at the example given below carefully to have a clear concept of rationalization.

Examples: Rationalize the following:

i. 3 7

ii. 5 2x + 5

Solution : Here,

i. 3 7 = 3 7 × 7 = 3×7 =21

ii. 5 2x + 5 = 5 2x + 5 × 2x + 5 = 5 (2x+5)

In the above example, 3 7 and 2x + 5 when multiplied with given surds gives a rational number. Thus, 7 and 2x + 5 are called rationalizing factor of the given problem.

= 12 + 8 2 + 9 2 + 6 ×29 - 8

= 12 + 17 2 + 121

= 24 + 17 2

Worked Out Examples

Conjugate

Conjugate of a+b is a-b and conjugate of a-b is a+b, thus a+b and a-b are conjugate of each other. This concept of conjugate is very important in rationalization as multiplying with the conjugate of given surd gives the rational number.

For example:

In order to rationalize 3 2 + 2 3 we can multiply by its conjugate i.e. 3 2 - 2 3 as:

(3 2 + 2 3 ) (3 2 - 2 3 )

= (3 2 )2 - (2 3 )2

= 9 × 2 - 4 × 3

= 18-12

= 6 Where 6 is a rational number.

Therefore to rationalize a monomial surd we have to multiply by itself and to rationalize the binomial we can multiply by its conjugate.

4.8 Equations involving surds(Radicals)

The equations having variables inside the radical sign such as x+5 = 3, 2x-13 = 5, 4 - 3x = 3x+4 are called radical equations. In order to solve the radical equations we should be careful in handling the radical signs especially while removing it. The following steps can help to solve radical equations.

i. Transpose the terms of equation (if required) surd alone in the left hand side (L.H.S.) and rest of the terms are in the R.H.S.

ii. Take the nth power ( according to the order of the radical) on both sides of the equa-tion, so that radical is removed.

iii. Continue this process until all the radical signs are removed.

iv. Use simple algebraic process for solving equation to get the values of variables.

v. Substitute the values obtained in the given equation in order to check whether it sat-isfies or not.

vi. The values which satisfy the given equation are required solution of the given prob-lem.

For clear understanding of solving radical equation, consider the following examples.

1. Solve: 5x -1 = 3

Solution: Here,

5x -1 = 3

Squaring both sides, we get

( 5x -1 )2 = (3)2

or, 5x-1 = 9

or, 5x = 9+1

or, 5x = 10

or, x = 105

∴ x = 2

2. Solve : x + 9 -1 = x

Solution: Here,

x + 9 -1 = x

or, x + 9 = x + 1 [By transposing -1 to the R.H.S.]

Squaring both sides, we get

( x + 9 )2 = ( x + 1)2

Verification

Substituting x = 2 in original equation.

5x -1 = 3

or, 5 × 2 - 1 = 3

or, 10- 1 = 3

or, 9 = 3

∴ 3 = 3, which is true.

Therefore, the required value of x is 2.

School Mathematics Book - 10 191

Verification

Substitute the value of x = 16, in original equation. x + 9 -1 = xor, 16 +9 -1 = 16or, 25-1 = 4or, 5 -1 = 4

or, 4 = 4 which is true.

Therefore, the required solution of the given

equation is x = 16.

Example 1 : Solve: 4 - 3y + 43 = 0

Solution: Here,

4 - 3y + 43 = 0

or, 4 - 3y + 43

Cubing both sides,

(4)3 = ( 3y + 43 )3

or, 64 = 3y + 4

or, 3y = 64 - 4

or, 3y = 60

or, y = 603

∴ y = 20.

Example 2 : Solve: 7x + 4 + 7x-12 = 8

Solution : Here,

7x + 4 + 7x-12 = 8

or, 7x + 4 = 8 - 7x-12

Squaring on both sides,

( 7x + 4)2 = (8 - 7x-12 )2

Worked Out Examples

Verification

or, 4 - 3 × 20 + 43 = 0

or, 4 - 643 = 0

or, 4 - 4 = 0

or, 0 = 0 which is true.

∴ y = 20

or, x + 9 = ( x ) 2 + 2. x.1+12

or, x + 9 = x + 2 x + 1

or, 9 - 1 = 2 x

or, 2 x = 8

or, x = 82

or, x = 4

Squaring on both sides,

( x )2 = (4)2

∴ x = 16

or, 7x + 4 = 82 - 2.8. 7x-12 + ( 7x-12 )2

or, 7x+4 = 64 -16 7x-12 + 7x -12

or, 4 = 52-16 7x-12

or, 4 - 52 = -16 7x-12

or, - 48 = - 16 7x-12

or, 7x-12 = -48-16

or, 7x-12 = 3

School Mathematics Book - 10192

Squaring on both sides,

( 7x-12 )2 = (3)2

or, 7x - 12 = 9

or, 7x = 9 + 12

or, 7x = 21

or, x = 217

∴ x = 3

Example 3 : Simplify : x + ax - a

+ x - ax + a

= 4

Solution : Here,

x + ax - a

+ x - ax + a

= 4

or, ( x + a )2 + ( x - a )2 ( x - a ) ( x + a )

= 4

or, ( x )2 + 2 x a + ( a )2 + ( x )2 - 2 x a +( a )2 ( x )2 - ( a )2

= 4

or, x+2 ax + a + x - 2 ax+ ax - a

or, 2x + 2a = 4(x-a) or, 2x + 2a = 4x-4a or, 4x - 2x = 2a + 4a or, 2x = 6a

or, x = 6a2

∴ x = 3a. So, the required value of x is 3a.

Example 4 : Solve: x - 1x + 1

= 2 + x + 13

Solution : Here,

x - 1x + 1

= 2 + x + 13

or, ( x )2 - 12

4.9 Simultaneous Equations

Simultaneous Equations

Consider a equation x + y = 9, Here we can see that,

When, x = 1, y = 8

When, x = 2, y = 7

When, x = 3, y = 6

When, x = 4, y = 5

When, x = 5, y = 4 and so on.

In this way there is a value of y for every value of x and the equation has an infinite number of solutions.

Again, consider the equation, x - y = 3.

Here, also When, x = 7, y = 4

When, x = 6, y = 3

When, x = 5, y = 2

When, x = 4, y = 1 and so on.

Therefore, equation x-y=3 also has infinite number of solutions as x = 7, y = 4, x = 6, y = 3, x = 5, y = 2 etc.

Thus, x and y above have infinite number of values when two equations are taken separately. But if we take both the equations simultaneously (together), we see that they are satisfied by one and only one pair of values x = 6 and y = 3.

Therefore, this type of two equations which are satisfied by the some values of the unknown (variables) are called simultaneous equation.

Methods of solving simultaneous equations

We have already discussed in our previous grade that there are various methods to solve a pair of simultaneous equations as

1. Elimination method 2. Substitution method 3. Graphical method

Here, we are briefly going to review elimination and substitution method.

Elimination method to solve a pair of simultaneous equations

Eliminating any one of the variables either by addition or subtracting after making same coefficient of the given pair of equations is known as elimination method.

School Mathematics Book - 10196

Worked Out Examples

Example 1 : Solve: 2x+3y =1

3x+2y = -6

Solution: Here,

2x+3y =1 ......................... (i)

3x+2y = -6 .......................(ii)

Multiplying equation (i) by 2 and equation (ii) by 3 and subtracting equation (ii) from (i), we get,

4x + 6y = 29x + 6y = - 18

- 5x = 20( - ) ( - ) ( + )

or, x = 20-5

or, x = - 4.

Now, substituting the value of x in equation (i), we get

2x+3y =1

or, 2(-4) +3y = 1

or, -8 +3y = 1

or, 3y = 1+8

or, 3y = 9

or, y = 93

∴ y = 3.

Therefore, required value of x = - 4 and y = - 3

Substitution Method to solve Simultaneous Equations

Expressing any one equation in term of one variable with respect to another and substituting the value in next equation to get the solution is substitution method. Consider the following example for clear understanding of this method.

Example 2 : Solve: 2x + 3y = 1 3x + 2y = - 6

Solution:

2x + 3y = 1 ............................ (i)

School Mathematics Book - 10 197

3x+2y = -6 ......................... (ii)From, equation (i) 2x+3y=1 or, 3y = 1 - 2x

or, y = 1-2x3 .......................... (iii)

Now, putting y = 1-2x3 in equation (ii)

[Remember put the value of equation (iii) in equation other than that from where (iii) is obtained. In this case, put the value of y in equation (ii) ]

3x+2 1-2x3( ) = - 6

or, 9x + 2(1 - 2x) = - 18 or, 9x + 2 - 4x = - 18 or, 5x = -18 -2

or, x = - 205

∴ x = - 4Now, putting x = -4 in equation (iii)

y = 1-2x(-4)3

or, y = 1 + 83

or, y = 93

∴ y = 3The required value of x = - 4 and y = 3.

Verbal problem leading to Simultaneous Equations

If the relation between two variables such as numbers, ages of person, dimension of plane figures, costs, wages of person etc. are given in the form of statements are known as verbal problems. In order to solve these types of problem we follow the following steps:

i. Choose two letters (preferably x and y) to represent two unknown number (variables) given in the problem.

ii. Express the condition explained in the problem in mathematical statement using algebraic symbols x and y, so that two equations are formed.

iii. Solve the equation obtained from step (ii) by either elimination or substitution method as per the convenience.

Example 3 : If a number is added to twice of another number, the sum is 20. If the second number is added to three times the first number, the sum is 30. Find the numbers.

Solution: Here,

Let, the first number be x and second number be y.

According to the first equation,

x+2y = 20 .......................... (i)

According to the second equation,

3x+y = 30 .......................... (ii)

Multiplying equation (i) by 3 and subtracting equation (ii) from (i)

3x + 6y = 603x + y = 30

5y = 30( - ) ( - ) ( - )

or, y = 305

or, y = 6.

Putting the value of y in equation (i)

x + 2y = 20

or, x + 2×6 = 20

or, x + 12 = 20

or, x = 20 - 12

or, x = 8

The required number are 8 and 6.

Example 4 : The perimeter of a rectangular field is 120 m .If length is 10 m longer than its breadth, find length and breadth of the rectangular field.

Solution : Here,

Perimeter of the rectangular field (P) = 120 m

Let breadth of the rectangular field (b)= x m

By question, length of the rectangular field (l)= (x + 10) m

Now, we know

School Mathematics Book - 10 199

Perimeter of the rectangular field (P) = 120

Or, 2 (l + b) = 120

Or, 2 (x + 10 + x) = 120

Or, 2 (2x + 10) = 120

Or, 4x + 20 = 120

Or, 4x = 120 – 20

Or, x = 1004 = 25

∴ Breadth (b) = 25 m and length (l) = x + 10 = 25 + 10 = 35 m

Thus, the length and breadth of the rectangular field are respectively 35m and 25m.

Example 5 : A certain fraction becomes 23 when 1 is added to both the numerator

and denominator. When three is subtracted from the numerator and 2 is added to the denominator, the fraction becomes 1

5 . What is the fraction?

Solution:

Let the required fraction be xy , where x is numerator and y is denominator.

According to the first condition,

x+1y+1 = 2

3

or, 3(x+1) = 2(y+1)

or, 3x +3 =2y+2

or, 3x-2y= 2-3

or, 3x-2y = -1.............................(i)

Solving equation (i) and (ii) by substitution method.

3x-2y = -1

or, 3x-2(5x-17) = -1

or, 3x -10x +34 = -1

or, -7x = -1-34

or, -7x = -35

or, x = - 35- 7

∴ x = 5

According to the second condition,

x-3y+2 = 1

5

or, 5(x-3) = 1(y+2)

or, 5x -15 = y + 2

or, y = 5x - 17 ............................(ii)

Substituting the value of x = 5 in equation (ii)

y = 5x-17

or, y = 5×5 - 17

or, y = 25-17

∴ y = 8Therefore, the required fraction is 5

8 .

Verbal problem related to two digit number

If a problem requires a two digit number as a solution, the digits in tens place and digit in unit place should be denoted by two separate variables as x and y respectively. Then the number of two digits can be written as 10x+y (since in algebra two digit number with x and y as digits cannot be written as xy as xy means x times y in algebra unlike in arithmetic as 34, 3 and 4 being two digits)

In two digit number 10x+y, x is in tens place and y is in unit place. While digits are reversed, y comes to tens place and x to the unit place. So, new number becomes 10y+x. Similarly sum and difference of two digits means x+y and x - y respectively. and product and quotient of two digits mean xy and x

y respectively.

Example 6 : The sum of digits of a two digits number is 11. If the place of the digits are interchanged, the result after subtracting 7 so formed from the new number is twice the given number. Find the original number.

Solution : Here,

Let the number be 10x + y

By question ,

x + y = 11 ………..(i)

Also, when the place of the digits are interchanged the new number will be 10y + x

Again, by question

10 y + x – 7 = 2 ( 10x + y )

Or, 2 ( 10x + y ) = 10 y + x – 7

Or, 20 x + 2y – 10y – x = – 7

Or, 19x – 8y = –7 ………….(ii)

From equation (i) x + y = 11

Or, x = 11 – y ……..(iii)

Putting the value of x in equation (ii), we get

19x – 8y = –7

Or, 19(11 – y) – 8y = – 7

Or, 209 – 19y – 8y = – 7

School Mathematics Book - 10 201

Or, 209 – 27 y = –7

Or, – 27y = –7 – 209

Or, –27y = – 216

Or, y = -216-27

∴ y = 8

Thus, the required number is 10x+y = 10 × 3 + 8 = 38.

Solving Verbal problems related with age of persons

If a problem requires age as the solution, the current or present ages must be supposed by ‘x’ years and ‘y’ years separately.

Here, ago and before means subtract (-) and after and hence means add (+).

Example 7 : The sum of the present age of two teachers is 54 years. If the age of one teacher is 4 years more than the other, find their present ages.Solution : Here,Let the present age of first teacher is x years and that of second teacher is y years.By question,According to first case, x + y = 54or, x + y = 54 …………(i)According to second case, x – 4 = y …………..(ii)Putting the value of y in equation (i) we get x + x – 4 = 54 or, 2x = 58 ∴ x = 29 years

Thus, the present age of the teachers are 29 years and 25 years.

Example 8 : Two years hence, a father will be six times as old as his son. Three years ago the father was five times as old as his son will be two years hence. What is their present ages?

Solution : Here,

Let the present age of father be x years and that of son be y years.

According to the first condition,

Now, putting the value of y in equation (i), we get

x + y = 11

or, x + 8 = 11

or, x = 11 – 8

∴ x = 3

Putting the value of x in equation (i), we get

x + y = 54

or, 29 + y = 54

or, y = 25 years.

School Mathematics Book - 10202

x+2 = 6(y+2)

or, x +2 = 6y +12

or, x = 6y + 12 -2

∴ x = 6y + 10 ........................(i)

Solving equation (i) and (ii)

x - 5y = 13

or, 6y + 10 -5y =13

or, y = 13 -10

or, y = 3

∴ The present age of father is 28 years and present age of son is 3 years.

Example 9 : The sum of the ages of father and son is 36 years. If they both live on until the son becomes as old as the father is now, the sum of their ages will be 84 years. Find the present ages.

Solution : Here,

Let the present age of father be x years and present age of son be y years.

According to the first condition,

x + y = 36 ........................ (i)

According to the second condition,

y+(x-y) +x+(x-y) = 84 or, y+x-y +x+x-y = 84 ∴ 3x - y = 84 ...................... (ii)Adding equation (i) and (ii) we get

x + y = 36(+) 3x - y = 84

4x = 120

or, x = 1204

∴ x =30

Therefore the present age of father is 30 years and present age of son is 6 years.

Example 10 : Four times breadth of a room is equal to 3 times the length. If the breadth had been 1 meter more and length 1 meter less, the room would have been a square. Find the dimension of the room.

Solution : Here,

Substituting y = 3 in equation (i) we get, x = 6y +10 = 6×3 +10 = 18+10 = 28

Substituting the value of x=30 in equation (i)

x + y =36 or, 30 + y = 36 or, y = 36-30 ∴ y = 6

According to the second condition,

x-3 = 5(y+2)

or, x-3 = 5y +10

or, x -5y = 10 +3

∴ x - 5y = 13 .......................... (ii)

School Mathematics Book - 10 203

Let, the length (l) of the room be x meter and the breadth (b) be y meters.

According to the first condition,

4y = 3x

∴ y = 34 x ................................. (i)

According to the second condition,

y+1 = x -1 [Since length = breadth in a square]

∴ y - x = -2 .................................... (ii)

Solving equation (i) and (ii) we get

y - x = -2

or, 3x4 - x = -2

or, 3x - 4x = -8

or, -x = -8

∴ x = 8

Therefore, length of the room (l) is 8m and breadth of the room (b) is 6m.

Putting the value of x in equation (i)

y = 3x4

= 3 × 84

= 244

= 6

4.10 Quadratic Equations

Introduction

The name quadratic comes from the word ‘quad’ means square, because the variable get squared (like x2).

An equation with one variable, in which the highest power of the variable is two, is called quadratic equation.

For examples

i. x2 = 9 ii. x2-4=0 iii. 2x2 + 3x – 5 = 0.In these three equations the highest power of x is 2. Such equations of the second degree is called quadratic equations.In (ii) there is a term in x2 and no term in x. Such an equation is called a pure quadratic equation.In (iii) there is a term in x2 and x as well. Such an equation is called adfected quadratic equation. Remember

i. The standard form of quadratic equation is ax2 + bx +c = 0 , where a and b are real numbers and a ≠ 0 .

ii. Every quadratic equation gives two values of the unknown variables which are called roots of the equation.

iii. Whenever the product of two expressions is zero, at least one of the expression is zero.

Method of solving pure quadratic Equation:

1. Remove brackets or fractions, if any. 2. Solve the equation for in the same way as you solve a simple equation in x. 3. Then take the square root of both sides to get the two values of x (one positive

and the other negative)

Worked Out Examples

Example 1: Solve: x2 = 36

Solution : Here,

Or, x2 = 36 or, x2 - 36=0 or, (x + 6)(x - 6) = 0So, one of x + 6 and x - 6 must be zero From x + 6 = 0, we get x = -6 From x - 6 = 0, we get x = 6

Thus, the required solutions are x = ± 6

Example 3 : Solve: 2+x2-x + 2-x

2+x = 4 14

Solution: 2+x

2-x + 2-x2+x = 4 1

4

or, (2+x)2 + (2-x)2

(2-x) (2+x) = 174

or, 4 + 4x + x2 + 4 - 4x + x2

4 - x2 = 174

or, 8 + 2x2

4-x2 = 174

or, 32 + 8x2 = 68 - 17x2 (By cross multiplication)

or, 25x2 = 36

or, x2 = 3625

or, x = ± 3625

or, x = ± 65

∴ x = ± 1 15

Example 5 : If 39 is subtracted from the square of a number, the result is 130. Find the positive number.

Solution : Here,

Let the positive number be x.

Then according to the question,

Example 2 : Solve: 5x2 =125

Solution : Here,

5x2 =125

or, x2 = 1255

or, x2 = 25

Taking the square root of both sides,

x = ± 25

or, x = ± 5 (i.e. +5 or -5)

Thus, required value of x is either 5 or – 5

Example 4 : Solve: x2-11x+30=0

Solution : Here,

x2-11x+30=0

or, x2- (6 + 5 ) x + 30 = 0

or, x2- 6 x - 5 x + 30 = 0

or, x (x – 6 ) – 5 ( x – 6 ) = 0

or, ( x – 6 ) ( x – 5 ) = 0

Either ( x – 6 ) = 0 Or, ( x-5 )=0 ∴x = 6 ∴x = 5

Thus, the required value of x is either 6 or 5.

School Mathematics Book - 10 209

x2-39 = 130

Or, x2 = 130+39

Or, x2 = 169

Or, x = ± 169

∴ x = ± 13

Thus, the required positive number is 13.

Example 6 : If the sum of a positive number and its square is equal to 56, Find the number.

Solution: Here,

Let the positive number be x.

According to the question

x + x2 = 56

Or, x2 + x -56 = 0

Or, x2+(8-7)x -56 = 0

Or, x2 + 8x-7x -56 = 0

Or, x(x+8) -7(x+8) = 0

Or, (x+8) (x-7) =0

Either, or,

x +8=0 x-7= 0

x = -8 (impossible) x = 7

Thus, the required positive number is 7.

Example 7 : The product of two consecutive numbers is 156, find the number.

Solution: Here,

Let, the consecutive numbers are x and x+1.

According to the question,

x(x+1)= 156

or, x2+x=156

or, x2+x-156=0

or, x2+ (13-12)x-156 =0

School Mathematics Book - 10210

or, x2+ 13x -12x -156 =0

or, x(x+13) -12(x+13) =0

or, (x+13)(x-12)=0

Either, or,

x+13 =0 x-12=0

x=-13(impossible) x= 12

so, x+1 = 12+1=13

Thus, the required consecutive numbers are 12 and 13.

Example 8 : Two numbers are x and x+2. If the sum of their reciprocals is 512 , Find

the numbers.

Solution: Here,

The two numbers are x and x+2.

According to the question,

1x

+

1x + 2

= 512

Or, x+2+xx(x+2)

= 512

Or, 2x + 2x(x+2)

= 512

Or, 12(2x +2) =5x(x+2)

Or, 24x + 24 = 5x2 +10x

Or, 0= 5x2 -24x-24+10x

Or, 5 x2 – 14x – 24 = 0

Or, 5x2 -20x + 6x -24 =0

Or, 5x(x-4) +6(x-4)=0

Or, (x-4) (5x+6) =0

Either, or,

x - 4 = 0 5x + 6 = 0

x = 4 x = - 65

When, x = 4, then x + 2 = 4 + 2 = 6

School Mathematics Book - 10 211

When, x = -65 then,

-65 +2 = - 6 +10

5 = 45

Thus, the number are either 4,6 or -65 , 4

5 .

Solution : Here,

Let, two numbers be x and y

By question,

x + y = 11 ……(i)

x × y = 28 ......(ii)

Now, from (i), x + y = 11

x = 11 – y ….(iii)

Putting the value of x in equation (ii) we get

x × y = 28

(11 – y) y = 28

Or, 11 y – y2 = 28

Or, y2 – 11 y + 28 = 0

Or, y2 – (7 + 4) y + 28 = 0

Or, y2 –7 y – 4 y + 28 = 0

Or, y ( y – 7 ) – 4 ( y – 7 ) = 0

Or, ( y – 7 ) ( y – 4 ) = 0

Either ( y – 7 ) = 0 or ( y – 4 ) = 0

∴ y = 7 ∴ y = 4

Substituting the value of y in equation (iii) , we get

11 – 7 = 4 or 11 – 4 = 7

Thus, the required numbers are 4 and 7.

Example 10 : The length of a rectangle is greater than its breadth by 3m. If its area be 10 sq. m, find the perimeter.

Solution: Here,

Suppose, the breadth of the rectangle = x m.

School Mathematics Book - 10212

Therefore, length of the rectangle = (x + 3) m.

So, area = (x + 3)x sq. m

Hence, by the condition of the problem

(x + 3)x = 10

Or, x2+ 3x - 10 = 0

Or, x2 + 5x – 2x - 10 = 0

Or, x( x + 5 ) – 2 ( x + 5 ) = 0

Or, (x + 5) (x - 2) = 0

Either ( x + 5) =0 or ( x - 2 ) = 0

∴ x = - 5 or ∴ x = 2

So, x = -5,2

But x = - 5 is not acceptable, since breadth cannot be negative.

Therefore x = 2

Hence, breadth = 2 m and length = 5 m

Therefore, Perimeter = 2(2 + 5) m = 14 m.

x = - 5 does not satisfy the conditions of the problem length or breadth can never be negative. Such a root is called an extraneous root. In solving a problem, each root of the quadratic equation is to be verified whether it satisfies the conditions of the given problem. An extraneous root is to be rejected.

Example 11: The product of the digits of a two-digit number is 12. If 36 is added to the number, a number is obtained which is the same as the number obtained by reversing the digits of the original number.

Solution: Here,

Let the digit at the units place be y and that at the tens place be x.

Then, the number = 10 x + y.

The number obtained by reversing the digits = 10 y + x

Case I : x × y = 12 ................... (i)

Case II : 10x + y + 36 = 10y + x

Or, 9x – 9y + 36 = 0

Or, x - y + 4 = 0Or, y = x + 4 .................................. (ii)

School Mathematics Book - 10 213

Putting y = x + 4 in (i), x × y = 12Or, x (x + 4) = 12Or, x2 + 4x – 12 = 0Or, x2 + 6x - 2x – 12 = 0Or, x(x + 6) - 2(x + 6) = 0Or, (x + 6)(x - 2) = 0Either x + 6 = 0 Or, x - 2 = 0

∴ x = - 6 or x = 2But a digit in a number cannot be negative. So, x ≠ -6.Therefore, x = 2.Therefore, from (iii), y = x + 4 = 2 + 4 = 6.Thus, the original number 10 x + y = 10 × 2 + 6 = 20 + 6 = 26.

Example 12 : After completing a journey of 84 km. A cyclist noticed that he would take 5 hours less, if he could travel at a speed which is 5 km/hour more. What was the speed of cyclist in km/hour?

Solution:

Suppose, the cyclist has travelled with a speed of x km/hour

Therefore, by the condition

84x

-

84x+5

= 5

Or, 84x + 420 - 84xx(x+5)

= 5

Or, 420x2+5x = 5

Or, 5 x2 + 25x = 420

Or, 5(x2 + 5x) = 420

Or, x2+ 5x - 84 = 0

Or, x2+ 12 x – 7 x - 84 = 0

Or, x ( x + 12) – 7 ( x +12 ) = 0

Or, (x + 12) (x - 7) = 0Either ( x + 12) = 0 or ( x - 7 ) = 0 ∴ x = - 12 ∴ x = 7

School Mathematics Book - 10214

Therefore, x = -12, 7But x ≠- 12, because speed cannot be negative, so, x = 7Therefore, the cyclist has travelled with a speed of 7 km/hour.Example 13 : An association has a fund of Rs 195. In addition that, each member of the association contributes money equal to the number of members. The to-tal money is divided equally among the members. If each of the members gets Rs 28, find the number of members in the association.

Solution:

Let the number of members be x.Total contributions from them = Rs x2

and the association has a fund of Rs 195.

According to the problem,

x2 + 195 = 28x or, x2 - 28x + 195 = 0 or, x2 - 15x - 13x + 195 = 0 or, x(x - 15) - 13(x - 15) = 0 or, (x - 15)(x - 13) = 0Either ( x - 15) =0 or ( x - 13 ) = 0 ∴ x = 15 or ∴ x = 13Therefore, x = 15 or 13There are 15 or 13 members in the association.
