In ΔABC, AC = BC and ∠ABC = 50°, the side BC is produced to D so that BC = CD then the value of ∠BAD?
Discuss
Answer & Solution
Answer: Option C
Solution:
Geometry mcq question image
In ΔABC
∠B = ∠A = 50°
∠ACD = 50° + 50° = 100°
∠ACD is the external angle or ΔABC
∠ACD + ∠CAD + ∠ADC = 180°
∠CAD = ∠ADC
∵ AC = CD
2∠CAD = 180° - 100°
∠CAD = 40°
∠BAD = 50° + 40° = 90°

In the given figure, ∠ONY = 50° and ∠OMY = 15°. Then the value of the ∠MON is
Geometry mcq question image
Discuss
Answer & Solution
Answer: Option D
Solution:
According to the figure.
OM = OY = ON
∴ In ΔOMY
∠OMY = ∠OYM = 15°
∴ ∠MOY = 180° - 15° - 15°
∠MOY = 150°
In ΔONY
∠ONY = ∠OYN = 50°
∴ ∠NOY = 180° - 50° - 50°
∠NOY = 80°
∴ ∠MON = 150° - 80°
∠MON = 70°

n2 = 8 × 16
n2 = 128
n = 8$$\sqrt 2 $$
Geometry mcq question image
b = (8$$\sqrt 2 $$ + a)
a2 + (16)2 = b2
a2 + (16)2 = (8$$\sqrt 2 $$ + a)2
a2 + 256 = 128 + a2 + 16$$\sqrt 2 $$ a
128 = 16$$\sqrt 2 $$ a
a = $$\frac{8}{{\sqrt 2 }}$$
a = 4$$\sqrt 2 $$

Two equal circles intersect so that there centres, and the point at which they intersect from a square of side 1 cm. The area (in sq. cm) of the portion that is common to the circles is
Discuss
Answer & Solution
Answer: Option B
Solution:
Geometry mcq question image
Now, Area of arc AC1B $$ = \pi {r^2}.\frac{{90}}{{360}} = \frac{\pi }{4}{\left( 1 \right)^2} = \frac{\pi }{4}$$
And area of arc AC2B = $$\frac{\pi }{4}$$
Area of square = (side)2 = 1
Area of common portion = area of arc (AC1B + AC2B) - Area of square
$$\eqalign{ & = \frac{\pi }{4} + \frac{\pi }{4} - 1 \cr & = \frac{\pi }{2} - 1\,{\text{sq}}{\text{. m}} \cr} $$

ABC is a triangle in which ∠ABC = 90°. BD is perpendicular to AC. Which of the following is TRUE?
I. Triangle BAD is similar to triangle CBD.
II. Triangle BAD is similar to triangle CAB.
III. Triangle CBD, is similar to triangle CAB.
Discuss
Answer & Solution
Answer: Option D
Solution:
Geometry mcq question image
In ΔBAD and ΔBDC
∠BDA = ∠BDC   (Each 90°)
If ∠C = 30°
Then ∠A = 60°
Also ∠ABD = 30°
∠BCD = ∠ABD
ΔBAD ∼ ΔBDC . . . . . (i)
In ΔBAD and ΔCAB
∠BDA = ∠ABC   (Each 90°)
∠BAD = ∠BAC   (common)
ΔBAD ∼ ΔCAB . . . . . (ii)
Similarly ΔCBD ∼ ΔCAB . . . . . (iii)
All conditions are true.
