Practice Set 1.5 Algebra 10th Std Maths Part 1 Answers Chapter 1 Linear Equations in Two Variables

Question 1.
Two numbers differ by 3. The sum of twice the smaller number and thrice the greater number is 19. Find the numbers.
Solution:
Let the greater number be x and the smaller number be y.
According to the first condition, x – y = 3 …(i)
According to the second condition,
3x + 2y = 19 …(ii)
Multiplying equation (i) by 2, we get
2x – 2y = 6 …(iii)
Adding equations (ii) and (iii), we get

Substituting x = 5 in equation (i), we get
5 – y = 3
∴ 5 – 3 = y
∴ y = 2
∴ The required numbers are 5 and 2.

Question 2.
Complete the following.

Solution:
Opposite sides of a rectangle are equal.
∴ 2x + y + 8 = 4x – y
∴ 8 = 4x – 2x – y – y
∴ 2x – 2y = 8
∴ x – y = 4 …(i)[Dividingboth sides by 2]
Also, x + 4= 2y
∴ x – 2y = -4 …(ii)
Subtracting equation (ii) from (i), we get

Substituting y = 8 in equation (i), we get
x – 8 = 4
∴ x = 4 + 8
∴ x = 12
Now, length of rectangle = 4x – y
= 4(12) – 8
= 48 – 8
∴ Length of rectangle = 40
Breadth of rectangle = 2y = 2(8) = 16
Perimeter of rectangle = 2(length + breadth)
= 2(40 + 16)
= 2(56)
∴ Perimeter of rectangle =112 units
Area of rectangle = length × breadth
= 40 × 16
∴ Area of rectangle = 640 sq. units
∴ x = 12 and y = 8, Perimeter of rectangle is 112 units and area of rectangle is 640 sq. units.

Question 3.
The sum of father’s age and twice the age of his son is 70. If we double the age of the father and add it to the age of his son the sum is 95. Find their present ages.
Solution:
Let the present ages of father and son be x years and y years respectively.
According to the first condition,
x + 2y = 70 …(i)
According to the second condition,
2x + y = 95 …(ii)
Multiplying equation (i) by 2, we get
2x + 4y = 140 …(iii)
Subtracting equation (ii) from (iii), we get

Substituting y = 15 in equation (i), we get
x + 2(15) = 7O
⇒ x + 30 = 70
⇒ x = 70 – 30
∴ x = 40
∴ The present ages of father and son are 40 years and 15 years respectively.

Question 4.
The denominator of a fraction is 4 more than twice its numerator. Denominator becomes 12 times the numerator, if both the numerator and the denominator are reduced by 6. Find the fraction.
Solution:
Let the numerator of the fraction be x and the denominator be y.
∴ Fraction = \(\frac { x }{ y } \)
According to the first condition,
y = 2x + 4
∴ 2x – y = -4 …(i)
According to the second condition,
(y – 6)= 12(x – 6)
∴ y – 6 = 12x – 72
∴ 12x – y = 72 – 6
∴ 12x – y = 66 …(ii)
Subtracting equation (i) from (ii), we get

Question 5.
Two types of boxes A, B ,are to be placed in a truck having capacity of 10 tons. When 150 boxes of type A and 100 boxes of type B are loaded in the truck, it weights 10 tons. But when 260 boxes of type A are loaded in the truck, it can still accommodate 40 boxes of type B, so that it is fully loaded. Find the weight of each type of box.
Solution:
Let the weights of box of type A be x kg and that of box of type B be y kg.
1 ton = 1000 kg
∴ 10 tons = 10000 kg
According to the first condition,
150x + 100y = 10000
∴ 3x + 2y = 200 …(i) [Dividing both sides by 50]
According to the second condition,
260x + 40y = 10000
∴ 13x + 2y = 500 …(ii) [Dividing both sides by 20]
Subtracting equation (i) from (ii), we get

∴ The weights of box of type A is 30 kg and that of box of type B is 55 kg.

Question 6.
Out of 1900 km, Vishal travelled some distance by bus and some by aeroplane. Bus travels with average speed 60 km/hr and the average speed of aeroplane is 700 km/hr. It takes 5 hours to complete the journey. Find the distance Vishal travelled by bus.
Solution:
Let the distance Vishal travelled by bus be x km and by aeroplane be y km.
According to the first condition,
x + y = 1900 …(i)
\(\text { Time }=\frac{\text { Distance }}{\text { Speed }} \)
∴ Time required to cover x km by bus = \(\frac { x }{ 60 } \) hr
Time required to cover y km by aeroplane
= \(\frac { y }{ 700 } \) hr
According to the second condition,

Multiplying equation (i) by 6, we get
6x + 6y= 11400 …(iii)
Subtracting equation (iii) from (ii), we get

∴ The distance Vishal travelled by bus is 150 km.

Multiplying equation (iv) by 2, we get
16q + 14p = 30 …(vi)
Adding equations (v) and (vi), we get

Substituting q = 1 in equation (iv), we get
8(1) + 7p = 15
∴ 8 + 7p = 15
∴ 7p = 15 – 8
∴ 7p = 7
∴ p = \(\frac { 7 }{ 7 } \) = 1
∴ (P, q) = (1,1)
Resubstituting the values of p and q, we get
1 = \(\frac { 1 }{ x } \) and 1 = \(\frac { 1 }{ y } \)
∴ x = 1 and y = 1

Question 2.
Decide whether following sequence is an A.P., if so find the 20^th term of the progression.
-12, -5, 2, 9,16, 23,30,…
Solution:
i. The given sequence is
-12, -5,2, 9, 16, 23,30,…
Here, t₁ = -1₂, t₂ = -5, t₃ = 2, t₄ = 9
∴ t₂ – t₁ – 5 – (-12) – 5 + 12 = 7
t₃ – t₂ = 2 – (-5) = 2 + 5 = 7
∴ t₄ – t₃ – 9 – 2 = 7
∴ t₂ – t₁ = t₃ – t₂ = … = 7 = d = constant
The difference between two consecutive terms is constant.
∴ The given sequence is an A.P.

ii. t_n = a + (n – 1)d
∴ t₂₀ = -12 + (20 – 1)7 …[∵a = -12, d = 7]
= -12 + 19 × 7
= -12 + 133
∴ t₂₀ = 121
∴ 20^th term of the given A.P. is 121.

Question 3.
Given Arithmetic Progression is 12, 16, 20, 24, … Find the 24^th term of this progression.
Solution:
The given A.P. is 12, 16, 20, 24,…
Here, a = 12, d = 16 – 12 = 4 Since,
t_n = a + (n – 1)d
∴ t₂₄ = 12 + (24 – 1)4
= 12 + 23 × 4
= 12 + 92
∴ t₂₄ = 104
∴ 24th term of the given A.P. is 104.

Question 4.
Find the 19th term of the following A.P. 7,13,19,25…..
Solution:
The given A.P. is 7, 13, 19, 25,…
Here, a = 7, d = 13 – 7 = 6
Since, t_n = a + (n – 1)d
∴ t₁₉ = 7 + (19 – 1)6
= 7 + 18 × 6
= 7 + 108
∴ t₁₉ = 115
∴ 19^th term of the given A.P. is 115.

Question 5.
Find the 27^th term of the following A.P. 9,4,-1,-6,-11,…
Solution:
The given A.P. is 9, 4, -1, -6, -11,…
Here, a = 9, d = 4- 9 = -5
Since, t_n = a + (n – 1)d
∴ t₂₇ = 9 + (27 – 1)(-5)
= 9 + 26 × (-5)
= 9 – 130
∴ t₂₇ = -121
∴ 27^th term of the given A.P. is -121.

Question 6.
Find how many three digit natural numbers are divisible by 5.
Solution:
The three digit natural numbers divisible by
5 are 100, 105, 110, …,995
The above sequence is an A.P.
∴ a = 100, d = 105 – 100 = 5
Let the number of terms in the A.P. be n.
Then, t_n = 995
Since, t_n = a + (n – 1)d
∴ 995 = 100 +(n – 1)5
∴ 995 – 100 = (n – 1)5
∴ 895 = (n – 1)5
∴ n – 1 = \(\frac { 895 }{ 5 } \)
∴ n – 1 = 179
∴ n = 179 + 1 = 180
∴ There are 180 three digit natural numbers which are divisible by 5.

Question 7.
The 11th term and the 21st term of an A.P. are 16 and 29 respectively, then find the 41st term of that A.P.
Solution:
Bor an A.P., let a be the first term and d be the common difference,
t₁₁ = 16, t₂₁ = 29 …[Given]
t_n = a + (n – 1)d
∴ t₁₁, = a + (11 – 1)d
∴ 16 = a + 10d
i.e. a + 10d = 16 …(i)
Also, t₂₁ = a + (21 – 1)d
∴ 29 = a + 20d
i.e. a + 20d = 29 …(ii)
Subtracting equation (i) from (ii), we get a

Question 8.
8. 11, 8, 5, 2, … In this A.P. which term is number-151?
Solution:
The given A.P. is 11, 8, 5, 2,…
Here, a = 11, d = 8 – 11 = -3
Let the n^th term of the given A.P. be -151.
Then, t_n = – 151
Since, t_n = a + (n – 1)d
∴ -151= 11 + (n – 1)(-3)
∴ -151 – 11 =(n – 1)(-3)
∴ -162 = (n – 1)(-3)
∴ n – 1 = \(\frac { -162 }{ -3 } \)
∴ n – 1 = 54
∴ n = 54 + 1 = 55
∴ 55th term of the given A.P. is -151.

Question 9.
In the natural numbers from 10 to 250, how many are divisible by 4?
Solution:
The natural numbers from 10 to 250 divisible
by 4 are 12, 16, 20, …,248
The above sequence is an A.P.
∴ a = 12, d = 16 – 12 = 4
Let the number of terms in the A.P. be n.
Then, t_n = 248
Since, t_n = a + (n – 1)d
∴ 248 = 12 + (n – 1)4
∴ 248 – 12 = (n – 1)4
∴ 236 = (n – 1)4
∴ n – 1 = \(\frac { 236 }{ 4 } \)
∴ n – 1 = 59
∴ n = 59 + 1 = 60
∴ There are 60 natural numbers from 10 to 250 which are divisible by 4.

Question 10.
In an A.P. 17^th term is 7 more than its 10th term. Find the common difference.
Solution:
For an A.P., let a be the first term and d be the common difference.
According to the given condition,
t₁₇ = t₁₀ + 7
∴ a + (17 – 1)d = a + (10 – 1)d + 7 …[∵ t_n = a + (n – 1)d]
∴ a + 16d = a + 9d + 7
∴ a + 16d – a – 9d = 7
∴ 7d = 7
∴ d = \(\frac { 7 }{ 7 } \) = 1
∴ The common difference is 1.

Question 1.
Kabir’s mother keeps a record of his height on each birthday. When he was one year old, his height was 70 cm, at 2 years he was 80 cm tall and 3 years he was 90 cm tall. His aunt Meera was studying in the 10th class. She said, “it seems like Kabir’s height grows in Arithmetic Progression”. Assuming this, she calculated how tall Kabir will be at the age of 15 years when he is in 10th! She was shocked to find it. You too assume that Kabir grows in A.P. and find out his height at the age of 15 years. (Textbook pg. no. 63)
Solution:
Height of Kabir when he was 1 year old = 70 cm Height of Kabir when he was 2 years old = 80 cm
Height of Kabir when he was 3 years old = 90 cm The heights of Kabir form an A.P.
Here, a = 70, d = 80 – 70 = 10
We have to find height of Kabir at the age of 15years i.e. t₁₅.
Now, tn = a + (n – 1)d
∴ t₁₅ = 70 + (15 – 1)10
= 70 + 14 × 10 = 70 + 140
∴ t₁₅ = 210
∴ The height of Kabir at the age of 15 years will be 210 cm.

Question 2.
Is 5, 8, 11, 14, …. an A.P.? If so then what will be the 100^th term? Check whether 92 is in this A.P.? Is number 61 in this A.P.? (Textbook pg. no, 62)
Solution:
i. The given sequence is
5, 8,11,14,…
Here, t₁ = 5, t₂ = 8, t₃ = 11, t₄ = 14
∴ t₂ – t₁ = 8 – 5 = 3
t₃ – t₂ = 11 – 8 = 3
t₄ – t₃ = 14 – 11 = 3
∴ t₂ – t₁ = t₃ – t₂ = t₄ – t₃ = 3 = d = constant
The difference between two consecutive terms is constant
∴ The given sequence is an A.P.

ii. t_n = a + (n – 1)d
∴ t₁₀₀ = 5 + (100 – 1)3 …[∵ a = 5, d = 3]
= 5 + 99 × 3
= 5 + 297
∴ t₁₀₀ = 302
∴ 100^th term of the given A.P. is 302.

iii. To check whether 92 is in given A.P., let t_n = 92
∴ t_n = a + (n – 1)d
∴ 92 = 5 + (n – 1)3
∴ 92 = 5 + 3n – 3
∴ 92 = 2 + 3n
∴ 90 = 3n
∴ n = \(\frac { 90 }{ 3 } \) = 30
∴ 92 is the 30th term of given A.P.

iv. To check whether 61 is in given A.P., let t_n = 61
61 = 5 + (n – 1)3
∴ 61 = 5 + 3n – 3
∴ 61 = 2 + 3n
∴ 61 – 2 = 3n
∴ 59 = 3n
∴ n = \(\frac { 59 }{ 3 } \)
But, n is natural number 59
∴ n ≠ \(\frac { 59 }{ 3 } \)
∴ 61 is not in given A.P.

\(\frac { PQ }{ LT } \) = \(\frac { QR }{ TR } \) = \(\frac { PR }{ LR } \) …(i)[Corresponding sides of similar triangles]
But, \(\frac { PQ }{ LT } \) = \(\frac { 3 }{ 4 } \) ….(ii) [Given]

Given : Radius (r) = 10 cm,
Measure of the arc (θ) = 54°
To find : Area of the sector.
Solution:
Area of sector = \(\frac{\theta}{360} \times \pi r^{2}\)
= \(\frac { 54 }{ 360 } \) × 3.14 × (10)²
= \(\frac { 3 }{ 20 } \) × 3.14 × 100
= 3 × 3.14 × 5
= 15 × 3.14
= 47.1 cm²
∴ The area of the sector is 47.1 cm².

Given: Radius (r) = 18 cm,
Measure of the arc (θ) = 80°
To find: Length of the arc.
Solution:
Length of arc = \(\frac{\theta}{360} \times 2 \pi r\) × 2πr
= \(\frac { 8 }{ 360 } \) × 2 × 3.14 × 18
= \(\frac { 2 }{ 9 } \) × 2 × 3.14 × 18
= 2 × 2 × 3.14 × 2 = 25.12 cm
∴ The length of the arc is 25.12 cm.

Radius of a sector of a circle is 3.5 cm and length of its arc is 2.2 cm. Find the area of the sector.
Solution:
Given: Radius (r) = 3.5 cm,
length of arc (l) = 2.2 cm
To find: Area of the sector.
Solution:
Area of sector = \(\frac{l \times \mathrm{r}}{2}\)
= \(\frac{2.2 \times 3.5}{2}\)
= 1.1 × 3.5 = 3.85 cm²
∴ The area of the sector is 3.85 cm².

To find: Area of maj or sector.
Solution:
Area of circle = πr²
= 3.14 × (10)²
= 3.14 × 100 = 314 cm²
Now, area of major sector
= area of circle – area of minor sector
= 314 – 100

Given: radius (r) = 7 cm,
m(arc MBN) = θ = 60°
Solution:
i. Area of circle = πr²
= \(\frac { 22 }{ 7 } \) × (7)²
= 22 × 7
= 154 cm²
∴ The area of the circle is 154 cm²

ii. Central angle (θ) = ∠MON = 60°
Area of sector = \(\frac{\theta}{360} \times \pi r^{2}\)
∴ A(O – MBN) = \(\frac { 60 }{ 360 } \) × \(\frac { 22 }{ 7 } \) × (7)²
\(\frac { 1 }{ 6 } \) × 22 × 7
= 25.67 cm²
= 25.7 cm²
∴ A(O-MBN) = 25.7 cm²

iii. Area of major sector = area of circle – area of minor sector
∴ A(O-MCN) = Area of circle – A(O-MBN)
= 154 – 25.7
∴ A(O-MCN) = 128.3 cm²

Question 7.
In the adjoining figure, radius of circle is 3.4 cm and perimeter of sector P-ABC is 12.8 cm. Find A(P-ABC).
Given: Radius (r) = 3.4 cm,
perimeter of sector 12.8 cm

= \(\frac { 1 }{ 6 } \) × 2 × 22
= 7.33 cm
ii. Length of arc MYN = \(\frac{\theta}{360} \times 2 \pi R\)
= \(\frac { 60 }{ 2 } \) × 2 × \(\frac { 22 }{ 7 } \) × 21

i. Curved surface area of frustum
= πl (r₁ + r₂)
= 3.14 × 10(14 + 6)
= 3.14 × 10 × 20 = 628 cm²
∴ The curved surface area of the frustum is 628 cm².

ii. Total surface area of frustum
= πl (r₁+ r₂) + πr₁² + πr₂²
= 628 + 3.14 × (14)² + 3.14 × (6)²
= 628 + 3.14 × 196 + 3.14 × 36
= 628 + 3.14(196 + 36)
= 628 + 3.14 × 232
= 628 + 728.48
= 1356.48 cm²
∴ The total surface area of the frustum is 1356.48 cm².

iii. Volume of frustum
= \(\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \) πth(r₁² +r₂² + r₁ × r₂)
= \(\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \) × 3.14 × 6(14² + 6² + 14 × 6)
= 3.14 × 2(196 + 36 + 84)
= 3.14 × 2 × 316
= 1984.48 cm³

= 12π + 18π
= 30π
= 30 × 3.14
= 94.20 cm³
Also, surface area of the toy
= Curved surface area of cone + Curved surface area of hemisphere
= 15π + 18π
= 33π
= 33 × 3.14
= 103.62 cm²
∴ The volume and surface area of the toy are 94.20 cm³ and 103.62 cm² respectively.

Given: For the conical cap,
radius (r) = 10 cm,
slant height (l) = 21 cm
To find: Cloth required to make the cap.
Solution:
Cloth required to make the cap
= Curved surface area of the conical cap
= πrl = \(\frac { 22 }{ 7 } \) × 10 × 21
=22 × 10 × 3
= 660 cm²
∴ 660 cm² of cloth will be required to make the cap.

Question 3.
As shown in the adjacent figure, a sphere is placed in a cylinder. It touches the top, bottom and the curved surface of the cylinder. If radius of the base of the cylinder is ‘r’,

i. what is the ratio of the radii of the sphere and the cylinder ?
ii. what is the ratio of the curved surface area of the cylinder and the surface area of the sphere?
iii. what is the ratio of the volumes of the cylinder and the sphere? (Textbook pg. no. 141)
Solution:
Radius of base of cylinder = radius of sphere
∴ Radius of sphere = r
Also, height of cylinder = diameter of sphere
∴ h = d
∴ h = 2r …(i)

∴ radius of sphere : radius of cylinder = 1 : 1.

∴ curved surface area of cylinder : surface area of sphere = 1:1.

∴ volume of cylinder : volume of sphere = 3 : 2.

Question 4.
Finding volume of a sphere using cylindrical beaker and water. (Textbook, pg. no. 142)

i. Take a ball and a beaker of the same radius.
ii. Cut a strip of paper of length equal to the diameter of the beaker.
iii. Draw two lines on the strip dividing it into three equal parts.
iv. Stick this strip on the beaker straight up from the bottom.
v. Fill the water in the beaker upto the first mark of the strip from bottom.
vi. Push the ball in the beaker so that it touches the bottom.
Observe how much water level rises.
You will notice that the water level has risen exactly upto the total height of the strip. Try to obtain the formula for volume of sphere using the volume of the cylindrical beaker.
Solution:
Suppose volume of beaker upto height 2r is V.
V = πr² h
∴ V = πr²(2r) …[∵ h = 2r]
∴ V = 2πr³
But, V = volume of the ball + volume of water in the beaker
∴ 2πr³ = Volume of the ball + \(\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \) × 2πr³
∴ Volume of the ball = 2πr³ – \(\frac { 2 }{ 3 } \) πr³
= \(\frac{6 \pi r^{3}-2 \pi r^{3}}{3}\)
∴ Volume of the ball = \(\frac { 4 }{ 3 } \) πr³
∴ Volume of a sphere = \(\frac { 4 }{ 3 } \) πr³

Question 2.
If sin θ = \(\frac { 11 }{ 61 } \), find the value of cos θ using trigonometric identity.
Solution:
sin θ = \(\frac { 11 }{ 61 } \) … [Given]
We know that,
sin² θ + cos² θ = 1


…[Taking square root of both sides]

Question 3.
If tan θ = 2, find the values of other trigonometric ratios.
Solution:
tan θ = 2 …[Given]
We know that,
1 + tan² θ = sec⁷ θ
∴ 1 + (2)⁷ = sec⁷ θ
∴ 1 + 4 = sec⁷ θ
∴ sec⁷ θ = 5
∴ sec θ = \(\sqrt { 5 }\) …[Taking square root of both sides]

Question 4.
If sec θ = \(\frac { 13 }{ 12 } \), find the values of other trigonometric ratios.
Solution:
sec θ = \(\frac { 13 }{ 12 } \) … [Given]
We know that,

∴ sin θ = \(\frac { 5 }{ 13 } \), cos θ = \(\frac { 12 }{ 13 } \), tan θ = \(\frac { 5 }{ 12 } \), cot θ = \(\frac { 12 }{ 5 } \), cosec θ = \(\frac { 13 }{ 5 } \)

Question 5.
Prove the following:
i. sec θ (1 – sin θ) (sec θ + tan θ) = 1
ii. (sec θ + tan θ) (1 – sin θ) = cos θ
iii. sec² θ + cosec² θ = sec² θ × cosec² θ

v. tan⁴ θ + tan² θ = sec⁴ θ – sec² θ
vi. \(\frac{1}{1-\sin \theta}+\frac{1}{1+\sin \theta}\) = 2 sec2 θ
vii. sec⁶ x – tan⁶ x = 1 + 3 sec² x × tan² x

Proof:
i. L.H.S. = sec θ (1 – sin θ) (sec θ + tan θ)

∴ sec θ (1 – sin θ) (sec θ + tan θ) = 1

ii. L.H.S. = (sec θ + tan θ) (1 – sin θ)

∴ (sec θ + tan θ) (1 – sin θ) = cos θ

iii. L.H.S. = sec² θ + cosec² θ

∴ sec² θ + cosec² θ = sec² θ × cosec² θ

iv. L.H.S. = cot² θ – tan² θ
= (cosec² θ – 1) – (sec² θ – 1)
[∵ tan² θ = sec² θ – 1,
cot² θ = cosec² θ – 1]
= cosec² θ – 1 – sec² θ + 1
cosec² θ – sec² θ
= R.H.S.
∴ cot² θ – tan² θ = cosec² θ – sec² θ

v. L.H.S. = tan⁴ θ + tan² θ
= tan² θ (tan² θ + 1)
= tan² θ. sec² θ
…[∵ 1 + tan² θ = sec² θ]
= (sec² θ – 1) sec² θ
…[∵ tan² θ = sec² θ – 1]
= sec⁴ θ – sec² θ
= R.H.S.
∴ tan⁴ θ + tan² θ = sec⁴ θ – sec² θ

vii. L.H.S. = sec⁶ x – tan⁶ x
= (sec² x)³ – tan⁶ x
= (1 + tan² x)³ – tan⁶ x …[∵ 1 + tan² θ = sec² θ]
= 1 + 3tan² x + 3(tan² x)² + (tan² x)³ – tan⁶ x …[∵ (a + b)³ = a³ + 3a²b + 3ab² + b³]
= 1 + 3 tan² x (1 + tan² x) + tan⁶ x – tan⁶ x
= 1 + 3 tan² x sec² x …[∵ 1 + tan² θ = sec² θ]
= R.H.S.
∴ sec³x – tan⁶x = 1 + 3sec²x.tan²x


x. We know that,

Angle of depression ∠PAC 30°
AB = 100m.
Now, ray AP || seg BC
∴ ∠ACB = ∠PAC … [Alternate angles]
∴ ∠ACB = 30°
AB = 100m
In right angled ∆ABC,
tan 30° = \(\frac { AB }{ BC } \) …[By definition]
∴ \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{100}{\mathrm{BC}}\)
∴ BC = 100\(\sqrt { 3 }\)m
∴ The ship is 1oo\(\sqrt { 3 }\)m far from the lighthouse.

Let AB and CD represent the heights of the two buildings, and BD represent the width of the road.

Draw seg AM ⊥ seg CD
Angle of elevation = ∠CAM = 30°
AB = 12m
BD = 15m
In ꠸ ABDM,
∠B = ∠D = 90°
∠M 90° …[segAM ⊥ segCD]
∠A 90° …[Remaining angle of ꠸ABDM]
꠸ABDM is a rectangle …[Each angle is 90°]

Solution:
Let AB represent the length of the ladder and AE represent the height of the platform.

Draw seg AC ⊥ seg BD.
Angle of elevation = ∠BAC = 70°
AB = 20 m
AE = 2m
In right angled ∆ABC,
sin 70° = \(\frac { BC }{ AB } \) …..[By definition]
∴ 0.94 = \(\frac { BC }{ 20 } \)
∴ BC = 0.94 × 20
= 18.80 m
In ꠸ACDE,
∠E = ∠D = 90°
∠C = 90° … [seg AC ⊥ seg BD]
∴ ∠A = 90° … [Remaining angle of ꠸ACDE]
∴ ꠸ACDE is a rectangle. … [Each angle is 90°]
∴ CD = AE = 2 m … [Opposite sides of a rectangle]
Now, BD = BC + CD … [B – C – D]
= 18.80 + 2
= 20.80 m
∴ The maximum height from the ground upto which the ladder can reach is 20.80 metres.

Question 10.
While landing at an airport, a pilot made an angle of depression of 20°. Average speed of the plane was 200 km/hr. The plane reached the ground after 54 seconds. Find the height at which the plane was when it started landing, (sin 20° = 0.342)
Solution:
Let AC represent the initial height and point A represent the initial position of the plane.
Let point B represent the position where plane lands.
Angle of depression = ∠EAB = 20°

Now, seg AE || seg BC
∴ ∠ABC = ∠EAB … [Alternate angles]
∴ ∠ABC = 20°
Speed of the plane = 200 km/hr
= 200 × \(\frac { 1000 }{ 3600 } \) m/sec
= \(\frac { 500 }{ 9 } \) m/sec
∴ Distance travelled in 54 sec = speed × time
= \(\frac { 500 }{ 9 } \) × 54
= 3000 m
∴ AB = 3000 m
In right angled ∆ABC,
sin 20° = \(\frac { AC }{ AB } \) ….[By definition]
∴ 0.342 = \(\frac { AC }{ 3000 } \)
∴ AC = 0.342 × 3000
= 1026 m
∴ The plane was at a height of 1026 m when it started landing.
