Explanation:
\nGwen, .x2<\/sup> + 7x + 10
\nOn Comparing with ax2<\/sup> + bx + c = 0 we get a = 1, b = 7 and c = 10
\n\u21d2 x = \\(\\frac{-b \\pm \\sqrt{b^{2}-4 a c}}{2 a}\\) – \\(-\\frac{1}{2}\\)
\n\u21d2 x = \\(\\frac{-7 \\pm \\sqrt{(7)^{2}-4 \\times 1 \\times 10}}{2 \\times 1}\\)
\n\u21d2 x = \\(\\frac{-7 \\pm \\sqrt{9}}{2}\\)
\n\u21d2 x= \\(\\frac{-7 \\pm 3}{2}\\)
\n\u21d2 x = \\(\\frac{-7+3}{2}\\) or \\(\\frac{-7-3}{2}\\)
\n=> x= – 2 or -5
\nHence, the roots of the given equation are – 2 or – 5.<\/p>\n

\n(C) x2<\/sup> +3x + 2\u221a2 = 0
\n(D) 5x2<\/sup>-3x + 1 = 0
\nAnswer:
\n(B) x2<\/sup> + x- 5 = 0<\/p>\n

Explanation:
\nx2<\/sup> + x – 5 = 0
\nOn comparing with ax2<\/sup> +bx +c = 0
\na = 1, b= 1, c = – 5
\nb2<\/sup> – 4ac = 0
\n(1)-4(1) (-5) =1+20 =21 >0
\nHence, the equation has two distinct real roots.<\/p>\n

Question 8.<\/p>\n

\nAnswer:
\n(B) 4<\/p>\n

Explanation:
\nGiven equation is 2x2<\/sup> – kx + k = 0 On comparing with ax2<\/sup> +bx +c =0
\na = 2, b=-k c=k
\nFor equal roots b2<\/sup> – 4ac = 0
\n(- k)2<\/sup> – 4 (2)(k) = 0
\nk2 \u2014 8k = 0
\nk(k-8) = 0
\nk = 0, 8
\nHence, the required values of k are 0 and 8.<\/p>\n

Question 9.<\/p>\n

\n(C) \\(\\frac{1}{4}\\)
\n(D) \\(\\frac{9}{64}\\)
\nAnswer:
\n(B) \\(\\frac{1}{64}\\)<\/p>\n

Explanation:
\nGiven equation is
\n9x2<\/sup> + \\(\\frac{3}{4}\\)x-\u221a2 = 0
\n(3x)2<\/sup>+\\(\\frac{1}{4}\\)(3x) = \u221a2
\n(3x)2<\/sup> + \\(\\frac{1}{4}\\) (3x) + \\(\\left(\\frac{1}{8}\\right)^{2}\\) = \\(\\left(\\frac{1}{8}\\right)^{2}\\) + \u221a2
\n\\(\\left(3 x+\\frac{1}{8}\\right)^{2}\\) = \\(\\frac{1}{64}\\) + \u221a2
\nThus, \\(\\frac{1}{64}\\) must be added and subtracted to solve the quadratic equation.<\/p>\n

\"MCQ<\/p>\n

Question 10.<\/p>\n

\n(B) two equal real roots
\n(C) no real roots
\n(D) more than 2 real roots
\nAnswer:
\n(C) no real roots<\/p>\n

Explanation:
\n2x2<\/sup> – \u221a5x + 1 = 0
\nOn comparing with ax2<\/sup> +bx +c =0
\na = 2, b = – \u221a5 , c= 1
\nDiscriminant = b2<\/sup> – 4ac = ( – \u221a5 )2<\/sup> – 4(2)(1)
\n= 5 – 8 = -3<0
\nTherefore, the equation has no real roots.<\/p>\n

\nAnswer:
\n(A) x2<\/sup> -4x + 3\u221a2 =0<\/p>\n

Explanation:
\nx2<\/sup> – 4x + 3\u221a2 = 0
\nOn comparing with ax2<\/sup> +bx +c =0
\na = 1, b= – 4, c = 3\u221a2
\nDiscriminant = b2<\/sup> – 4ac = (- 4 )2<\/sup> – 4 (1)(3\u221a2)
\n= 16-12 \u221a2
\n= 16-12 \u00d7 1.41 = 16 – 16.92 = – 0.92 < 0

\n(D) one real root.
\nAnswer:
\n(C) no real roots<\/p>\n

Explanation:
\n(x2<\/sup>+ 1)2<\/sup>-x2<\/sup> = 0
\nx4<\/sup>+1+2x2<\/sup> – x2<\/sup> = 0
\nx4<\/sup> + x2<\/sup> + 1 = 0
\nLet x2<\/sup> = y
\ny2<\/sup> + y + 1 = 0
\nOn comparing with ay2<\/sup> + by + c = 0
\na = 1, b = 1, c = 1
\nDiscriminant = b2<\/sup> – 4ac
\n= (1)2<\/sup>-4(1)(1)

\n(A) BothAandR are true and R is the correct explanation of A
\n(B) Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A
\n(C) A is true but R is false
\n(D) A is false and R is True<\/p>\n

Question 1.<\/p>\n

Assertion (A): The positive root of \\(\\sqrt{3 x^{2}+6}\\) =9 is 5.
\nReason (R): If x =\\(\\frac{2}{3}\\)and x = -3 are roots of the 3 quadratic equation ax2<\/sup> + 7x + b = 0, then the value of a and b are 3 and -6.<\/h2>\n

Answer:
\n(B) Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A<\/p>\n

Explanation:
\nIn case of assertion:
\n\\(\\sqrt{3 x^{2}+6}\\) = 9
\n3x2<\/sup> + 6 = 81
\n3x2<\/sup> = 81 – 6 = 75
\nx2<\/sup> = \\(\\frac{75}{3}\\) = 25
\nx = \u00b1 5
\nHence, positive root = 5.
\n\u2234Assertion is correct.
\nIn case of reason:
\nSubstituting x =\\(\\frac{2}{3}\\) in ax2<\/sup> + 7x + b = 0
\n\\(\\frac{4}{9} a\\) + \\(\\frac{14}{3}\\) + b = 0
\n\u21d2 4a + 42 + 9b = 0
\n\u21d24a + 9b = – 42 …(i)
\nagain\/substituting x = – 3 in ax2<\/sup> + 7x + b = 0
\n9a – 21 + b = 0
\n\u21d29a + b = 21 …(ii)
\nSolving (i) and (ii), we get
\na = 3 and b = – 6
\n\u2234 Reason is correct
\nHence, both assertion and reason are correct but reason is not the correct explanation for assertion.<\/p>\n

Question 2.<\/p>\n

Assertion (A): The solution of the quadratic equation (x – 1)2<\/sup> – 5 (x – 1) – 6 = 0 is 0 or 7.
\nReason (R): The solution of the equation x2<\/sup> + 5x – (a2<\/sup> + a – 6) = 0 is a + 3.<\/h2>\n

Answer:
\n(C) A is true but R is false<\/p>\n

Explanation:
\nIn case of assertion:
\nGiven, (x-1)2<\/sup>– -5(x -1) – 6 = 0
\n\u21d2 x2<\/sup> – 2x + 1 – 5x + 5 – 6 = 0
\n\u21d2 x2<\/sup> – 7x+ 6 – 6 = 0
\n\u21d2 x2<\/sup> – 7x = 0
\n\u21d2 x(x – 7) = 0
\nx = 0 or 7
\n\u2234 Assertion is correct.
\nIn case of reason:
\nx2<\/sup>+ 5x – (a2<\/sup> + a – 6) = 0
\n\u21d2 x2<\/sup> – 5x – (a2 + a – 6) = 0
\n\u21d2 x2<\/sup> + 5x – [a(a + 3) – 2 (a + 3)] = 0
\n\u21d2 x2<\/sup> + 5x – (a + 3)(a – 2) = 0<\/p>\n

\u21d2 x2<\/sup> + [(a + 3) \u2014 (a \u2014 2)]x – (a + 3)(a – 2) = 0
\n\u21d2 x2<\/sup> + (a + 3)x -(a- 2)x – (a + 3 )(a – 2) = 0
\n\u21d2 x[x + (a + 3)] – (a – 2) [x + (a + 3)] = 0
\n\u21d2 [x + (a + 3)][x-(a – 2)] =0
\n\u21d2 x = – (a + 3) or x = a – 2
\nHence, roots of given equation are – (a + 3) and a – 2.
\nReason is incorrect
\nHence, assertion is correct but reason is incorrect.<\/p>\n

\"MCQ<\/p>\n

Question 3.<\/p>\n

Assertion (A): A two digit number is four times the sum of the digits. If it is also equal to 3 times the product of the digits, then the number is 25.
\nReason (R): The denominator of a fraction is one more than twice its numerator. If the sum of the 16 fraction and its reciprocal is \\(2\\frac{16}{21}\\), then the fraction is \\(\\frac{3}{7}\\)<\/h2>\n

Answer:
\n(D) A is false and R is True<\/p>\n

Explanation:
\nIn case of assertion:
\nLet unit’s digit and ten’s digit of the two digit number be x and y respectively .\u2019. Number is 10y + x According to question,
\n10y + x = 4 (y + x)
\n\u21d2 10y + x = 4y + 4x
\n\u21d2 10y – 4y = 4x – x
\n\u21d2 6y = 3x
\n\u21d2 2y = x …(i)
\nAlso, 10y + x = 3xy …(ii)
\n\u21d2 10y + 2y = 3(2y)y [From eq (i)]
\n\u21d2 12y = by2<\/sup>
\n\u21d2 6y2<\/sup> – 12y = 0
\n\u21d2 6y(y \u2014 2) = 0
\n\u21d2 y=0 or y = 2
\nRejecting y = 0 as tens digit should not be zero for a two digit number.
\n\u21d2 x = 4
\n.’. Required number = 10y + x
\n\u21d2 10 x 2 + 4 = 24.
\nAssertion is incorrect.
\nIn case of reason:
\nLet numerator be x.
\nThen, the fraction = \\(\\frac{x}{2 x+1}\\)
\nAgain,\\(\\frac{x}{2 x+1}\\) + \\(\\frac{2 x+1}{x}\\) = \\(\\frac{58}{21}\\)
\n\u21d2 21 [x2<\/sup> + (2x + 1)2<\/sup>] = 58 (2x2<\/sup> + x
\n\u21d2 11x2<\/sup> – 26x – 21 = 0
\n11x2<\/sup> – 33x + 7x – 21 = 0
\n(x- 3)(11x + 7) = 0
\nx = 3 or – \\(-\\frac{7}{11}\\)
\n(rejected negative value)
\nHence, fraction = \\(\\frac{3}{7}\\)
\nReason is correct Hence, assertion is correct incorrect but reason is correct<\/p>\n

Question 4.<\/p>\n

Assertion (A): If the coefficient of x2<\/sup> and the constant term have the same sign and if the coefficient of x term is zero then the quadratic equation has no real roots.
\nReason (R): The equation 13\u221a3x2<\/sup> + 10x + \u221a3 = 0 has not real roots.<\/h2>\n

Answer:
\n(A) BothAandR are true and R is the correct explanation of A<\/p>\n

Explanation:
\nIn case of assertion:
\nSince, in this case discriminant is always negative, so it has no real roots, that is, if b = 0, then b2 – 4ac => – 4ac < 0 and ac > 0.
\n\u2234 Assertion is correct.
\nIn case of reason:
\nHere, a = 13 \u221a3 , b = 10 and c = \u221a3
\nThen, b2<\/sup> – 4ac = (10)2<\/sup> – 4(13 \u221a3)(\u221a3 )
\n= 100 -156
\n= -56
\nAs D < 0.
\nSo, the equation has not real roots.
\n\u2234 Reason is correct.
\nHence, assertion and reason are correct and reason is the correct explanation for assertion.<\/p>\n

Question 5.<\/p>\n

Assertion (A): Every quadratic equation has exactly one root.
\nReason (R): Every quadratic equation has almost two roots.<\/h2>\n

Answer:
\n(D) A is false and R is True<\/p>\n

Explanation:
\nIn case of assertion:
\nSince, a quadratic equation has two and only two roots.
\n\u2234 Assertion is incorrect.
\nIn case of reason:
\nBecause every quadratic polynomial has almost two roots.
\n\u2234Reason is correct.
\nHence, assertion is incorrect but reason is : correct.<\/p>\n

Question 6.<\/p>\n

Assertion (A): If the coefficient of x2 and the constant term of a quadratic equation have opposite signs, then the quadratic equation has real roots.
\nReason (R): Every quadratic equation has at least two roots.<\/h2>\n

Answer:
\n(C) A is true but R is false<\/p>\n

Explanation:
\nIn case of assertion:
\nSince, in this case discriminant is always positive, so it has always real roots, that is, ac < 0 and so, b2<\/sup>– 4ac > 0.
\n\u2234 Assertion is correct.
\nTn case of reason:
\nSince, a quadratic equation has two and only two roots.
\n\u2234 Reason is incorrect.
\nHence, assertion is incorrect but reason is incorrect.<\/p>\n

(A) 8
\n(B) 3
\n(C) 4
\n(D) 5
\nAnswer:
\n(B) 3<\/p>\n

Explanation:
\nGiven, area of triangle = 60 cm2<\/sup>
\n\u21d2 \\(\\frac{1}{2}\\) \u00d7 AB \u00d7BC = 0
\n\u21d2 (5x)(3x – 1) =120
\n\u21d2 3x2<\/sup>-x-24 = 0
\n\u21d2 3x2<\/sup>– 9x + 8x – 24 = 0
\n\u21d2 3x(x – 3) + 8(x – 3) =0
\n\u21d2 (x – 3)(3x + 8) = 0
\nEither x = 3 or x = \\(-\\frac{8}{3}\\)
\nSince length can’t be negative, then x = 3.<\/p>\n

Question 2.<\/p>\n

The length of AB is:<\/h2>\n

(A) 8 cm
\n(B) 10 cm
\n(C) 15 cm
\n(D) 17 cm

\n(D)20 cm
\nAnswer:
\n(A) 17 cm<\/p>\n

Explanation:
\nAB = 15 cm and BC = (3x – 1) cm
\n= (3 x 3-1) cm
\n= 8 cm
\nNow, in right angled AABC,
\nAC2<\/sup> = AB2<\/sup> + BC2<\/sup>
\n(By using Pythagoras theorem)
\n= (15)2<\/sup>+ (8)2<\/sup> = 225 + 64 = 289 = (17)2<\/sup>
\nHence, AC = 17 cm.<\/p>\n

\"MCQ<\/p>\n

Question 4.<\/p>\n

The perimeter of \u2206ABC is:<\/h2>\n
