\n(D) AB x AC = AD2<\/sup>
\nAnswer:
\n(C) BD x CD = AD2
\n
\n<\/sup><\/p>\n
\nIn \u2206ABD and \u2206CAD, \u2220ADB = \u221aADC = 90\u00b0 and \u2220ABD = \u2220CAD = \u03b8 By AA Similarity, we get, \u2206ABD ~ \u2206CAD
\n\u21d2 \\(\\vec{a}\\) = \\(\\vec{a}\\) \u21d2 BD x CD = AD2<\/sup><\/p>\nIf \u2206ABC ~ \u2206EDF and AABC is not similar to \u2206DEF, then which of the following is not true?<\/h2>\n

\n(C) BC x DE = AB x EF
\n(D) BC x DE = AB x FD
\nAnswer:
\n(C) BC x DE = AB x EF<\/p>\n
\nSince \u2206ABC ~ \u2206EDF, then we get AB = \\(\\frac{A B}{E D}\\) = \\(\\frac{A C}{E F}\\) = \\(\\frac{B C}{D F}\\)
\nFrom first two, AB x EF = AC x DE.
\nOption (B) is correct.
\nFrom last two, BC x EF = AC x FD.
\nOption (A) is correct.
\nFrom first and last, BC x DE = AB x FD.
\nOption (D) is correct.

\n(C) \u2206CBA – \u2206PQR
\n(D) \u2206BCA – \u2206PQR
\nAnswer:
\n(A) \u2206PQR – \u2206CAB
\nExplanation: Given that, \\(\\frac{A B}{Q R}\\) =\\(\\frac{B C}{P R}\\) = \\(\\frac{C A}{P Q}\\) , by SSS similarity, we get \u2206PQR ~ \u2206CAB.<\/p>\nIn the figure given below\/- two line segments AC and BD intersect each other at the point P such that PA = 6 cm, PB = 3 cm, PC 2.5 cm, PD = 5 cm, \u2220APB = 50\u00b0 and \u2220CDP = 30\u00b0.

\n(C) 60\u00b0
\n(D) 100\u00b0
\nAnswer:
\n(D) 100\u00b0
\nExplanation:
\nIn the given figure, \\(\\frac{P A}{P B}\\) = \\(\\frac{6}{3}\\) =2
\nand \\(\\frac{P D}{P C}\\) = \\(\\frac{5}{2.5}\\) = 2 Thus \\(\\frac{P A}{P B}\\) = \\(\\frac{P D}{P C}\\)
\n\u2220APB = \u2220DPC. By SAS similarity, we get \u2206APB ~ \u2206DPC. Hence,\u2220PBA = 100\u00b0<\/p>\nIf in two triangles DEF and PQR, \u2220D = \u2220Q and \u2220R = \u2220E, then which of the following is not true?<\/h2>\n

\n(C) \\(\\frac{D E}{Q R}\\) = \\(\\frac{D F}{P Q}\\)
\n(D) \\(\\frac{E F}{R P}\\) = \\(\\frac{D E}{Q R}\\)
\nAnswer:
\n(B) \\(\\frac{D E}{P Q}\\) = \\(\\frac{F E}{R P}\\)<\/p>\n
\nIn \u2206DEF and \u2206PQR, \u2220D – \u2220Q and \u2220R – \u2220E. By AA similarity, wo get \u2206DEE ~ \u2206QRP. Hence, \\(\\frac{D E}{Q R}\\) = \\(\\frac{E F}{R P}\\) = \\(\\frac{D F}{Q P}\\) . Option (B) is incorrect.<\/p>\nIn triangles ABC and DEF, \u2220B = \u2220E, \u2220E = \u2220C and AB = 3DE. Then, the two triangles are:<\/h2>\n
\n(B) similar but not congruent
\n(C) neither congruent nor similar
\n(D) congruent as well as similar
\nAnswer:
\n(B) similar but not congruent<\/p>\n
\nIn \u2206ABC and \u2206DEE, \u2220B = \u2220E and \u2220E – \u2220C. By AA similarity, we get \u2206ABC ~ \u2206DEE. Thus, the triangles arc similar but not congruent.<\/p>\n
\n(A) Both A and R 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
\nReason (R): If the ratio of the corresponding altitudes of two similar triangles is \\(\\frac{3}{5}\\) ratio of their areas is\\(\\frac{6}{5}\\).<\/p>\n
\n(C) A is true but R is false<\/p>\n
\nIn case of assertion:
\nIn the given two right triangles, both have equal right angles and one of the acute angles of one triangle is equal to an acute angle of the other triangle.
\nThus, by AA similarity, the given two triangles are similar.
\n\u2234 Assertion is correct.
\nIn case of reason:
\nWe know that the ratio of the areas of two similar triangles is the square of the ratio of the corresponding altitudes of two similar triangles.
\nThus, the ratio of the areas of two similar triangles is – \\(\\left(\\frac{3}{5}\\right)^{2}\\) = \\(\\frac{9}{25}\\)
\n\u2234Reason is incorrect.
\nHence, assertion is correct but reason is incorrect.<\/p>\nAssertion (A): If D is a point on side QR of \u2206PQR such that PD \u22a5QR, then \u2206PQD ~ \u2206RPD.
\nReason (R): In the figure given below, if \u2220D = \u2220C then \u2206ADE ~ \u2206ACB.<\/h2>\n
\nAnswer:
\n(D) A is false and R is True<\/p>\n
\nIn case of assertion:
\n
\nIN \u2206PQD and \u2220PDQ = \u2220PDR = 90\u00b0
\nThere is no other information to be similar. Thus, is not it will be correct to say that AAPQD = ARPD.
\n\u2234 Assertion is correct.
\nIn case of assertion:
\nIN AADE and AACB, we have
\n\u2220ADE = \u2220ACB [given ]
\n\u2220DAE = \u2220CAB [Common angle]
\nBy AA similarity, we get \u2206ADE ~ \u2206ACB
\n\u2234 Reason is correct
\nHence, assertion is incorrect but reason is correct<\/p>\nAssertion (A): Corresponding sides of two similar triangles are in the ratio of 2 : 3. If the area of the smaller triangle is 48 cm2<\/sup>, then the area of the larger triangle is 108 cm2<\/sup>.
\nReason (R): If D is a point on the side BC of a triangle ABC such that \u2220ADC = \u2220BAC, then CA2<\/sup> = CB x CD.<\/h2>\n
\n(B) similar but not congruent<\/p>\n
\nIn case of assertion:
\nLet \u2206ABC and \u2206DEE are two similar triangles.
\n\\(\\frac{a r \\triangle A B C}{a r \\triangle D E F}\\) = \\(\\left(\\frac{A B}{D E}\\right)^{2}\\)
\nGiven that ar \u2206ABC = 48 cm2<\/sup>. Then,
\n\\(\\frac{48}{a r \\Delta D E F}\\)
\n= \\(\\frac{4}{9}\\)
\n\u21d2 ar \u2206DEF = \\(\\vec{a}\\) x 48 = 108
\nThus, the area of larger triangle is 108 cm2<\/sup>.
\n\u2234Assertion is correct.
\nIn case of reason:
\n
\nIn \u2206BAC and \u2206ADC,
\n\u2220BAC = \u2220ADC [Given]
\n\u2220BCA = \u2220ACD [Common angle]
\nBy AA similarity, \u2206BAC ~ \u2206ADC Thus,
\n\\(\\frac{C A}{C D}\\) = \\(\\frac{B C}{C A}\\)
\n\u2234 Reason is correct
\nHence, both assertion and reason are correct but reason is not the correct explanation for assertion.<\/p>\nAssertion (A): In an equilateral triangle of side 3\u221a3 cm, then the length of the altitude is 4.5 cm.
\nReason (R): If a ladder 10 cm long reaches a window 8 m above the ground, then the distance of the foot of the ladder from the base of the wall is 6 m.<\/h2>\n
\n(B) similar but not congruent<\/p>\n
\nIn case of assertion:
\n
\n\u2206ABD, \u2220D = 90\u00b0
\n\u2234(3\u221a3)2<\/sup> = h2<\/sup> + \\(\\left(\\frac{3 \\sqrt{3}}{2}\\right)^{2}\\)
\nor, 27 = h2 + \\(\\vec{a}\\)
\nor,h2 = 27 – \\(\\vec{a}\\)
\nor, h2 = \\(\\vec{a}\\)
\n\u2234 h = \\(\\vec{a}\\) = 4.5m
\n\u2234 Assertion is correct.
\nIn case of assertion:
\nLet BC be the height of the window above the ground and AAAC be a ladder.
\n
\nHere, BC = 8cm and AC = 10 cm
\n\u2234 In right angled triangle ABC,
\nAC2<\/sup> = AB2<\/sup> + BC2<\/sup>(By using Pythagoras Theorem)
\n(10)2 = AB2 + (8)2
\nAB2 = 100 – 64
\n= 36
\nAB = 6 m.
\n\u2234 Reason is correct
\nHence, both assertion and reason are correct but reason is not the correct explanation for as sertion.<\/p>\n

\n(C) Pythagoras Theorem<\/p>\nWhat is the distance AC?<\/h2>\n
\n(B) 12 m
\n(C) 100 m
\n(D) 70 m
\nAnswer:
\n(A) 50 m<\/p>\n
\nAccording to the pythagoras.
\nAC2<\/sup> = AD2<\/sup>+ CD2<\/sup>
\nAC2<\/sup> = (30 m)2<\/sup> + (40 m)2<\/sup>
\nAC2<\/sup> = 900 + 1600
\nAC2<\/sup> = 2500
\nAC = 50 m<\/p>\nWhich is the following does not form a Pythagoras triplet?<\/h2>\n
\n(B) (15,8,17)
\n(C) (5,12,13)
\n(D) (21,20,28)
\nAnswer:
\n(D) (21,20,28)<\/p>\nFind the length AB?<\/h2>\n

\nIf one shape can become another using revising, then the shapes are similar. Hence, two shapes are similar when one can become the other after a resize, flip, slide or turn. In the photograph below showing the side view of a train engine. Scale factor is 1:200 This means that a length of 1 cm on the photograph above corresponds to a length of 200 cm or 2 m, of the actual engine. The scale can also be written as the ratio of two lengths.<\/p>\nIf the length of the model is 11 cm, then the overall length of the engine in the photograph above, including the couplings(mechanism used to connect) is:<\/h2>\n
\n(B) 220 cm
\n(C) 220 m
\n(D) 22 m
\nAnswer:
\n(A) 22 cm<\/p>\nWhat will affect the similarity of any two polygons?<\/h2>\n
\n(B) They are dilated by a scale factor
\n(C) They are translated down
\n(D) They are not the mirror image of one another.
\nAnswer:
\n(D) They are not the mirror image of one another.<\/p>\nWhat is the actual width of the door if the width of the door in photograph is 0.35 cm?<\/h2>\n
\n(B) 0.7 cm
\n(C) 0.07 cm
\n(D) 0.07 m
\nAnswer:
\n(A) 0.7 m<\/p>\nIf two similar triangles have a scale factor 5:3 which statement regarding the two triangles is true?<\/h2>\n
\n(B) Their altitudes have a ratio 25:15
\n(C) Their medians have a ratio 10:4
\n(D) Their angle bisectors have a ratio 11:5
\nAnswer:
\n(B) Their altitudes have a ratio 25:15<\/p>\nThe length of AB in the given figure: A<\/h2>\n
\n(A) 8 cm
\n(B) 6 cm
\n(C) 4 cm
\n(D) 10 cm
\nAnswer:
\n(C) 4 cm
\nExplanation:
\nSince AABC and AADE are similar, then their ratio of corresponding sides are equal
\n\\(\\frac{A B}{B C}\\) = \\(\\frac{A B+B D}{D E}\\)
\n\\(\\frac{x}{3 \\mathrm{~cm}}\\) = \\(\\frac{(x+4) \\mathrm{cm}}{6 \\mathrm{~cm}}\\)
\n6x = 3(x + 4)
\n6x = 3x + 12
\n6x – 3x = 12
\n3x = 12
\nx = 4
