Question 1.
Diagonals of a rectangle ABCD intersect at point O. If AC = 8 cm, then find BO and if ∠CAD = 35°, then find ∠ACB.
Solution:
i. AC = 8 cm …(i) [Given]
□ABCD is a rectangle [Given]
∴ BD = AC [Diagonals of a rectangle are congruent]
∴ BD = 8 cm [From (i)]
BO = 1/2 BD [Diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other]
∴ BO = 1/2 x 8
∴ BO = 4 cm
ii. side AD || side BC and seg AC is their transversal. [Opposite sides of a rectangle are parallel]
∴ ∠ACB = ∠CAD [Alternate angles]
∠ACB = 35° [ ∵∠CAD = 35°]
∴ BO = 4 cm, ∠ACB = 35°
Question 2.
In a rhombus PQRS, if PQ = 7.5 cm, then find QR. If ∠QPS 75°, then find the measures of ∠PQR and ∠SRQ.
Solution:
i. PQ = 7.5 cm [Given]
□PQRS is a rhombus. [Given]
∴ QR = PQ [Sides of a rhombus are congruent]
∴ QR = 7.5 cm
ii. ∠QPS = 75° [Given]
∠QPS + ∠PQR = 180° [Adjacent angles of a rhombus are supplementary]
∴ 75° + ∠PQR = 180°
∴ ∠PQR = 180° – 75°
∴ ∠PQR =105°
iii. ∠SRQ = ∠QPS [Opposite angles of a rhombus]
∴ ∠SRQ = 75°
∴ QR = 7.5 cm, ∠PQR = 105°,
∠SRQ = 75°
Question 3.
Diagonals of a square IJKL intersects at point M. Find the measures of ∠IMJ, ∠JIK and ∠LJK.
Solution:
□IJKL is a square. [Given]
∴ seg IK ⊥ seg JL [Diagonals of a square are perpendicular to each other]
∠ IMJ=90°
∠ JIL 90° ……. (i) [Angle of a square]
ii. ∠JIK = 1/2∠JIL [Diagonals of a square bisect the opposite angles]
∠JIK = 1/2 (90°) [From (i)
∴ ∠JIK = 45°
∠IJK = 90° (ii) [Angle of a square]
iii. ∠LJK = 1/2∠IJK [Diagonals of a square bisect the opposite angles]
∠LJK = 1/2 (90°) [From (ii)]
∴ ∠LJK = 45°
∴ ∠LJK = 90°, ∠JIK = 45°, ∠LJK=45°
Question 4.
Diagonals of a rhombus are 20 cm and 21 cm respectively, then find the side of rhombus and its Perimeter.
Solution:
i. Let □ABCD be the rhombus.
AC = 20 cm, BD = 21 cm
ii. In ∆AOB, ∠AOB = 90° [Diagonals of a rhombus are prependicular to each other]
∴ AB2 = AO2 + BO2 [Pythagoras theorem]
iii. Perimeter of □ABCD
= 4 x AB = 4 x 14.5 = 58 cm
∴ The side and perimeter of the rhombus are 14.5 cm and 58 cm respectively.
