Solution:
Alphabets having axis of symmetry:

Alphabets having more than one axis of symmetry:

Question 3.
Use color, a thread and a folded paper to draw symmetrical shapes.
Solution:
Take any color, a thread and a folded square paper.
Step 1:
Take a folded square paper which is folded along one of its axis of symmetry.

Step 2:
Open the paper. Draw a square in one comer. Place the thread in the square drawn and apply colour on it as shown in the figure.

Step 3:
Remove the thread. You will see a white patch where the thread was.

Step 4:
Fold the paper and press it along the axis of symmetry. When you unfold the paper, you will see an imprint on the other side of the fold which is identical to the color patch you had made earlier.

Question 4.
Observe various commonly seen objects such as tree leaves, birds in flight, pictures of historical buildings, etc. Find symmetrical shapes among them and make a collection of them.

Question 1.
Do you recognize this picture?
Why do you think the letters written on the front of the vehicle are written the way they are? Copy them on a paper. Hold the paper in front of a mirror and read it.
Do you see letters written like this anywhere else?
(Textbook pg. no. 40)

Solution:

1. The name written in reverse alphabets on the vehicle reads
   as ‘AMBULANCE’ when viewed in the mirror.

Maharashtra Board Class 6 Maths Chapter 17 Geometrical Constructions Practice Set 40 Questions and Activities

Question 1.
In the above construction, why must the distance in the compass be kept constant? (Textbook pg. no. 90)
Solution:
The point N is at equal distance from points P and Q.
If we change the distance of the compass while drawing arcs from points P and Q, we will not get a point which is at equal distance from P and Q. Hence, the distance in the compass must be kept constant.

Question 2.
The Perpendicular Bisector. (Textbook pg. no. 90)

1. A wooden ‘yoke’ is used for pulling a bullock cart. How is the position of the yoke determined?
2. To do that, a rope is used to measure equal distances from the spine/midline of the bullock cart. Which geometrical property is used here?
3. Find out from the craftsmen or from other experienced persons, why this is done.

Solution:

1. For the bullock cart to be pulled in the correct direction by the yoke, its Centre O should be equidistant from the either sides of the cart.
2. The property of perpendicular bisector is used to make the point equidistant from both the ends
3. A rope is used just like a compass to get equal distances from the spine/midline of bullock cart.

Question 3.
Take a rectangular sheet of paper. Fold the paper so that the lower edge of the paper falls on its top edge, and fold it over again from right to left. Observe the two folds that have formed on the . paper. Verify that each fold is a perpendicular bisector of the other. Then measure the following distances. (Textbook pg. no. 91)
i. l(XP)
ii. l(XA)
iii. l(XB)
iv. l(YP)
v. l(YA)

You will observe that l(XP) = l(YP), l(XA) = l(YA) and l(XB) = l(YB)
Therefore we can conclude that all points on the vertical fold (perpendicular bisector) are equidistant from the endpoints of the horizontal fold.
Solution:
[Note: Students should attempt this activity on their own.]

Solution:
1 metre =100 cm
Length of the red ribbon = 80 cm
Length of the blue ribbon = 2.20 m = 2.20 x 100 cm
\(=\frac{220}{100} \times \frac{100}{1}=\frac{220 \times 100}{100 \times 1}\)
= 220 cm
∴ Ratio of length of the red ribbon to that of the blue ribbon

∴ The ratio of the length of the red ribbon to that of the blue ribbon is \(\frac { 4 }{ 11 }\).

11 Ratio Question 6.
Shubham’s age today is 12 years and his father’s is 42 years. Shubham’s mother is younger than his father by 6 years. Find the following ratios.
i. Ratio of Shubham’s age today to his mother’s age today.
ii. Ratio of Shubham’s mother’s age today to his father’s age today.
iii. The ratio of Shubham’s age to his mother’s age when Shubham was 10 years old.
Solution:
Shubham’s age today = 12 years
Shubham’s father’s age = 42 years
Shubham’s mother age = Shubham’s father’s age – 6 years
= 42 years – 6 years = 36 years

i. Ratio of Shubham’s age today to his mother’s age today

∴ The ratio of Shubham’s age today to his mother’s age today is \(\frac { 1 }{ 3 }\).

ii. Ratio of Shubham’s mother age today to his father’s age today

∴ The ratio of Shubham’s mother’s age today to his father’s age today is \(\frac { 6 }{ 7 }\).

iii. Shubham’s age today is 12 years and his mothers age is 36 years.
Hence when Shubham’s age was 10 years, his mother’s age was 34 years (i.e. 36 – 2 years).
Ratio of Shubham’s age to his mother’s age when Shubham was 10 years old

∴ The ratio of Shubham’s age to his mother’s age when Shubham was 10 years old is \(\frac { 5 }{ 17 }\)

Question 1.
When constructing a building, what is the method used to make sure that a wall is exactly upright? What does the mason in the picture have in his hand? What do you think is his purpose for using it? (Textbook pg. no. 87)

Solution:
When constructing a building, a weight (usually with a pointed tip at the bottom) suspended from a string called as plummet or plump bob is aligned from the top of the wall to make sure that the wall is built exactly upright.
The mason in the picture is holding a plumb bob.
The string of the plumb bob is suspended from the top of the wall, such that plumb bob hangs freely. By observing whether the vertical wall is parallel to the string we can check if the constructed wall is vertical.

Question 2.
Have you looked at lamp posts on the roadside? How do they stand? (Textbook pg. no. 87)
Solution:
The lamp posts on the road side are standing erect or vertical.

Question 3.
For the above explained construction, why must we take a distance greater than half of the length of AB? What will happen if we take a smaller distance? (Textbook pg. no. 88)
Solution:
For the above construction, in step-3 we take distance greater than half of the length of AB, so that the arcs drawn by keeping the compass on points A and B intersect each other at point Q.
If the distance in compass is less than half of the length of AB, then the arcs drawn by keeping the compass at A and B will not intersect each other.

Decimal Fractions Class 6 Maths Chapter 5 Practice Set 17 Solutions Maharashtra Board

Balbharti Maharashtra State Board Class 6 Maths Solutions covers the Std 6 Maths Chapter 5 Decimal Fractions Class 6 Practice Set 17 Answers Solutions.

Std 6 Maths Practice Set 17 Solutions Answers

Question 1.
Carry out the following divisions.
i. 4.8÷2
ii. 17.5÷5
iii. 20.6÷2
iv. 32.5÷25
Solution:
i. 4.8÷2

ii. 17.5÷5

iii. 20.6÷2

iv. 32.5÷25

Question 2.
A road is 4 km 800 m long. If trees are planted on both its sides at intervals of 9.6 m, how many trees were planted?
Solution:
Length of road = 4 km 800 m
= 4 × 1000 m + 800 m
= 4000 m + 800 m
= 4800 m
Number of trees on one side = 4800 ÷ 9.6

= 500
∴ Number of trees on both sides = 2 x number of trees on one side
= 2 x 500 = 1000
If the trees are planted at the beginning of the road, then
Total number of trees = 1000 + 2 = 1002
∴ Total number of trees planted is 1000 or 1002.

Question 3.
Pradnya exercises regularly by walking along a circular path on a field. If she walks a distance of 3.825 km in 9 rounds of the path, how much does she walk in one round?
Solution:
Total distance walked in 9 rounds = 3.825 km
∴Distance walked in 1 round = 3.825 4 ÷ 9

= 0.425 km
∴ Total distance walked in 1 round is 0.425 km.

Question 4.
A pharmaceutical manufacturer bought 0.25 quintal of hirada, a medicinal plant, for Rs 9500. What is the cost per quintal of hirada? (1 quintal = 100 kg)
Solution:
Cost of 0.25 quintal of hirada = Rs 9500
∴ Cost of 1 quintal of hirada = 9500 ÷ 0.25

= Rs 38,000
∴ Cost per quintal of hirada is Rs 38,000.

Question 1.
Maths is fun! (Textbook pg. no. 34)

1. Consider any three-digit number (say 527).
2. Multiply the number by 7. Then multiply the product obtained by 13, and this product by 11.
3. The found product is 5,27,527.

Take two or three other numbers. Do the same multiplication and find out how it is done.
Solution:
7 × 13 × 11 = 1001
∴ 527 × 1001 = 527 × (1000+ 1)
= (527 × 1000) + (527 × 1)
= 527000 + 527 = 527527
Thus, when any three-digit number is multiplied with 1001, the product obtained is a six-digit number in which the original three-digit number is written back to back twice.
(Students may consider any other three-digit numbers and verify the property.)
