Std 8 Maths Practice Set 8.3 Chapter 8 Solutions Answers

Question 1.
Measures of opposite angles of a parallelogram are (3x – 2)° and (50 – x)°. Find the measure of its each angle.
Solution:
Let ₹PQRS be the parallelogram.
m∠Q = (3x – 2)° and m∠S = (50 – x)°

m∠Q = m∠S
…..(i)
[Opposite angles of a parallelogram are congruent]
∴ 3x – 2 = 50 – x
∴ 3x + x = 50 + 2
∴ 4x = 52
∴ x = \(\frac { 52 }{ 4 }\)
∴ x = 13
Now, m∠Q = (3x – 2)°
= (3 x 13 – 2)° = (39 – 2)° = 37°
∴ m∠S = m∠Q = 37° …[From(i)]
m∠P + m∠Q = 180°
….[Adjacent angles of a parallelogram are supplementary]
∴ m∠P + 37° = 180°
∴ m∠P = 180° – 37° = 143°
∴ m∠R = m∠P = 143°
…..[Opposite angles of a parallelogram are congruent]
∴ The measures of the angles of the parallelogram are 37°, 143°, 37° and 143°.

Question 2.
Referring the given figure of a parallelogram, write the answers of questions given below.
i. If l(WZ) = 4.5 cm, then l(XY) = ?
ii. If l(YZ) = 8.2 cm, then l(XW) = ?
iii. If l(OX) = 2.5 cm, then l(OZ) = ?
iv. If l(WO) = 3.3 cm, then l(WY) = ?
v. If m∠WZY = 120°, then m∠WXY = ? and m∠XWZ = ?

Solution:
i. l(WZ) = 4.5 cm … [Given]
l(X Y) = l(WZ) ….[Opposite sides of a parallelogram are congrument ]
∴ l(X Y) = 4.5cm

ii. l(YZ) = 8.2 cm …[Given]
l(XW) = l(YZ)
…[Opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent]
∴ l(XW) = 8.2cm … [Given]

iii. l(OX) = 2.5 cm …[Given]
l(OZ) = l(OX)
….[Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other]
∴ l(OZ) = 2.5cm

iv. l(WO) = 3.3 cm … [Given]
l(WO) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) l(WY)
….[Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other]
∴ 3.3 = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) l(WY)
∴ 3.3 x 2 = l(WY)
∴ l(WY) = 6.6cm

v. m∠WZY =120° … [Given]
m∠WXY = m∠WZY
…..[Opposite angles of a parallelogram are congrument]
∴ m∠WXY = 120° …(i)
m∠XWZ + m∠WXY = 180°
….[Adjacent angles of a parallelogram are supplementary]
∴ m∠XWZ + 120° = 180° … [From (i)]
∴ m∠XWZ = 180°- 120°
∴ m∠XWZ = 60°

Question 3.
Construct a parallelogram ABCD such that l(BC) = 7 cm, m∠ABC = 40°, l(AB) = 3 cm
Solution:

Opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent.
∴ l(AB) = l(CD) = 3cm
l(BC) = l(AD) = 7 cm

Question 4.
Ratio of consecutive angles of a quadrilateral is 1 : 2 : 3 : 4. Find the measure of its each angle. Write with reason, what type of a quadrilateral it is.
Solution:
Let ₹PQRS be the quadrilateral.
Ratio of consecutive angles of a quadrilateral is 1 : 2 : 3 : 4.
Let the common multiple be x.
∴m∠P = x°, m∠Q = 2x°, m∠R = 3x° and m∠S = 4x°
In ₹PQRS,
m∠P + m∠Q + m∠R + m∠S = 360°
…[Sum of the measures of the angles of a quadrilateral is 360°]
∴x° + 2x° + 3x° + 4x° = 360°
∴10 x° = 360°
∴x° = \(\frac { 360 }{ 10 }\)
∴x° = 36°
∴m∠P = x° = 36°

m∠Q = 2x° = 2 × 36° = 72°
m∠R = 3x° = 3 × 36° = 108° and
m∠S = 4x° = 4 × 36° = 144°
∴The measures of the angles of the quadrilateral are 36°, 72°, 108°, 144°.
Here, m∠P + m∠S = 36° + 144° = 180°
Since, interior angles are supplementary,
∴side PQ || side SR
m∠P + m∠Q = 36° + 72° = 108° ≠ 180°
∴side PS is not parallel to side QR.
Since, one pair of opposite sides of the given quadrilateral is parallel.
∴The given quadrilateral is a trapezium.

Question 5.
Construct ₹BARC such that
l(BA) = l(BC) = 4.2 cm, l(AC) = 6.0 cm, l(AR) = l(CR) = 5.6 cm
Solution:

Question 6.
Construct ₹PQRS, such that l(PQ) = 3.5 cm, l(QR) = 5.6 cm, l(RS) = 3.5 cm, m∠Q = 110°, m∠R = 70°. If it is given that ₹PQRS is a parallelogram, which of the given information is unnecessary?
Solution:

1. Since, the opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent.
   ∴ Either l(PQ) or l(SR) is required.
2. To construct a parallelogram lengths of adjacent sides and measure of one angle is required.
   ∴ Either l(PQ) and m∠Q or l(SR) and m∠R is the unnecessary information given in the question.

Std 8 Maths Practice Set 8.2 Chapter 8 Solutions Answers

Question 1.
Draw a rectangle ABCD such that l(AB) = 6.0 cm and l(BC) = 4.5 cm.
Solution:

Question 2.
Draw a square WXYZ with side 5.2 cm.
Solution:

Question 3.
Draw a rhombus KLMN such that its side is 4 cm and m∠K = 75°.
Solution:

Question 4.
If diagonal of a rectangle is 26 cm and one side is 24 cm, find the other side.
Solution:

Let ₹ABCD be the rectangle.
l(BC) = 24cm, l(AC) = 26cm
In ∆ABC,
m∠ABC = 90° …[Angle of a rectangle]
∴[l(AC)]² = [l(AB)]2 + [l(BC)]²
…[Pythagoras theorem]
∴ (26 )² = [l(AB)]² + (24)²
∴(26)² – (24)² = [l(AB)]²
∴(26 + 24) (26 – 24) = [l(AB)]²
…[∵ a² – b² = (a + b)(a – b)]
∴50 x 2 = [l(AB)]²
∴100 = [l(AB)]²
i.e. [l(AB)]² = 100
∴l(AB) = √100
…[Taking square root of both sides]
∴l(AB) =10 cm
∴The length of the other side is 10 cm.

Question 5.
Lengths of diagonals of a rhombus ABCD are 16 cm and 12 cm. Find the side and perimeter of the rhombus.
Solution:
In rhombus ABCD,

l(AC) = 16 cm and l(BD) = 12 cm.
Let the diagonals of rhombus ABCD intersect at point O.
l(AO) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) l(AC)
…[Diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other]
∴l(AO) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) × 16
∴l(AO) = 8 cm
Also, l(DO) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) l(BD)
…[Diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other]
∴l(DO) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) × 12
∴l(DO) = 6 cm
In ∆DOA,
m∠DOA = 90°
..[Diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular to each other]
[l(AD)]² = [l(AO)]² + [l(DO)]²
…[Pythagoras theorem]

= (8)² + (6)²
= 64 + 36
∴[l(AD)]² = 100
∴l(AD) = √100
… [Taking square root of both sides]
∴l(AD) = 10 cm
∴l(AB) = l(BC) = l(CD) = l(AD) = 10 cm
…[Sides of a rhombus are congruent]
Perimeter of rhombus ABCD
= l(AB) + l(BC) + l(CD) + l(AD)
= 10+10+10+10
= 40 cm
∴The side and perimeter of the rhombus are 10 cm and 40 cm respectively.

Question 6.
Find the length of diagonal of a square with side 8 cm.
Solution:
Let ₹XYWZ be the square of side 8cm.

seg XW is a diagonal.
In ∆ XYW,
m∠XYW = 90°
… [Angle of a square]
∴ [l(XW)]² = [l(XY)]² + [l(YW)]²
…[Pythagoras theorem]
= (8)² + (8)²
= 64 + 64
∴ [l(XW)]² = 128
∴ l(XW) = √128
…[Taking square root of both sides]
= √64 × 2
= 8 √2 cm
∴ The length of the diagonal of the square is 8 √2 cm.

Question 7.
Measure of one angle of a rhombus is 50°, find the measures of remaining three angles.
Solution:
Let ₹ABCD be the rhombus.

m∠A = 50°
m∠C = m∠A
….[Opposite angles of a rhombus are congruent]
∴ m∠C = 50°
Also, m∠D = m∠B …(i)
….[Opposite angles of a rhombus are congruent]
In ₹ABCD,
m∠A + m∠B + m∠C + m∠D = 360°
….[Sum of the measures of the angles of a quadrilateral is 360°]
∴ 50° + m∠B + 50° + m∠D = 360°
∴ m∠B + m∠D + 100° = 360°
∴ m∠B + m∠D = 360° – 100°
∴ m∠B + m∠B = 260° …[From (i)]
∴ 2m∠B = 260°
∴ m∠B = \(\frac { 260 }{ 2 }\)
∴ m∠B = 130°
∴ m∠D = m∠B = 130° …[From (i)]
∴ The measures of the remaining angles of the rhombus are 130°, 50° and 130°.

Variation Class 8 Maths Chapter 7 Practice Set 7.3 Solutions Maharashtra Board

Balbharti Maharashtra State Board Class 8 Maths Solutions covers the Practice Set 7.3 8th Std Maths Answers Solutions Chapter 7 Variation.

Std 8 Maths Practice Set 7.3 Chapter 7 Solutions Answers

Question 1.
Which of the following statements are of inverse variation?
i. Number of workers on a job and time taken by them to complete the job.
ii. Number of pipes of same size to fill a tank and the time taken by them to fill the tank.
iii. Petrol filled in the tank of a vehicle and its cost.
iv. Area of circle and its radius.
Solution:
i. Let, x represent number of workers on a job, and y represent time taken by workers to complete the job.
As the number of workers increases, the time required to complete the job decreases.
∴ \(x \propto \frac{1}{y}\)

ii. Let, n represent number of pipes of same size to fill a tank and t represent time taken by the pipes to fill the tank.
As the number of pipes increases, the time required to fill the tank decreases.
∴ \(\mathrm{n} \propto \frac{1}{\mathrm{t}}\)

iii. Let, p represent the quantity of petrol filled in a tank and c represent the cost of the petrol.
As the quantity of petrol in the tank increases, its cost increases.
∴ p ∝ c

iv. Let, A represent the area of the circle and r represent its radius.
As the area of circle increases, its radius increases.
∴ A ∝ r
∴ Statements (i) and (ii) are examples of inverse variation.

Question 2.
If 15 workers can build a wall in 48 hours, how many workers will be required to do the same work in 30 hours?
Solution:
Let, n represent the number of workers building the wall and t represent the time required.
Since, the number of workers varies inversely with the time required to build the wall.
∴ \(\mathrm{n} \propto \frac{1}{\mathrm{t}}\)
∴ \(\mathrm{n}=\mathrm{k} \times \frac{1}{\mathrm{t}}\)
where k is the constant of variation
∴ n × t = k …(i)
15 workers can build a wall in 48 hours,
i.e., when n = 15, t = 48
∴ Substituting n = 15 and t = 48 in (i), we get
n × t = k
∴ 15 × 48 = k
∴ k = 720
Substituting k = 720 in (i), we get
n × t = k
∴ n × t = 720 …(ii)
This is the equation of variation.
Now, we have to find number of workers required to do the same work in 30 hours.
i.e., when t = 30, n = ?
∴ Substituting t = 30 in (ii), we get
n × t = 720
∴ n × 30 = 720
∴ n = \(\frac { 720 }{ 30 }\)
∴ n = 24
∴ 24 workers will be required to build the wall in 30 hours.

Question 3.
120 bags of half litre milk can be filled by a machine within 3 minutes find the time to fill such 1800 bags?
Solution:
Let b represent the number of bags of half litre milk and t represent the time required to fill the bags.
Since, the number of bags and time required to fill the bags varies directly.
∴ b ∝ t
∴ b = kt …(i)
where k is the constant of variation.
Since, 120 bags can be filled in 3 minutes
i.e., when b = 120, t = 3
∴ Substituting b = 120 and t = 3 in (i), we get
b = kt
∴ 120 = k × 3
∴ k = \(\frac { 120 }{ 3 }\)
∴ k = 40
Substituting k = 40 in (i), we get
b = kt
∴ b = 40 t …(ii)
This is the equation of variation.
Now, we have to find time required to fill 1800 bags
∴ Substituting b = 1800 in (ii), we get
b = 40 t
∴ 1800 = 40 t
∴ t = \(\frac { 1800 }{ 40 }\)
∴ t = 45
∴ 1800 bags of half litre milk can be filled by the machine in 45 minutes.

Question 4.
A car with speed 60 km/hr takes 8 hours to travel some distance. What should be the increase in the speed if the same distance is
to be covered in \(7\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) hours?
Solution:
Let v represent the speed of car in km/hr and t represent the time required.
Since, speed of a car varies inversely as the time required to cover a distance.
∴ \(v \propto \frac{1}{t}\)
∴ \(\mathbf{v}=\mathbf{k} \times \frac{1}{\mathbf{t}}\)
where, k is the constant of variation.
∴ v × t = k …(i)
Since, a car with speed 60 km/hr takes 8 hours to travel some distance.
i.e., when v = 60, t = 8
∴ Substituting v = 60 and t = 8 in (i), we get
v × t = k
∴ 60 × 8 = t
∴ k = 480
Substituting k = 480 in (i), we get
v × t = k
∴ v × t = 480 …(ii)
This is the equation of variation.
Now, we have to find speed of car if the same distance is to be covered in \(7\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) hours.
i.e., when t = \(7\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) = 7.5 , v = ?
∴ Substituting, t = 7.5 in (ii), we get
v × t = 480
∴ v × 7.5 = 480
\(v=\frac{480}{7.5}=\frac{4800}{75}\)
∴ v = 64
The speed of vehicle should be 64 km/hr to cover the same distance in 7.5 hours.
∴ The increase in speed = 64 – 60
= 4km/hr
∴ The increase in speed of the car is 4 km/hr.

Std 8 Maths Practice Set 7.2 Chapter 7 Solutions Answers

Question 1.
The information about number of workers and number of days to complete a work is given in the following table. Complete the table.

Solution:
Let, n represent the number of workers and d represent the number of days required to complete a work.
Since, number of workers and number of days to complete a work are in inverse poportion.
∴ \(\mathbf{n} \propto \frac{1}{\mathrm{d}}\)
∴ \(\mathrm{n}=\mathrm{k} \times \frac{1}{\mathrm{d}}\)
where k is the constant of variation.
∴ n × d = k …(i)

i. When n = 30, d = 6
∴ Substituting n = 30 and d = 6 in (i), we get
n × d = k
∴ 30 × 6 = k
∴ k = 180
Substituting k = 180 in (i), we get
∴ n × d = k
∴ n × d = 180 …(ii)
This is the equation of variation

ii. When d = 12, n = 7
∴ Substituting d = 12 in (ii), we get
n × d = 180
∴ n × 12 = 180
∴ n = \(\frac { 180 }{ 12 }\)
∴ n = 15

iii. When n = 10, d = ?
∴ Substituting n = 10 in (ii), we get
n × d = 180
10 × d = 180
∴ d = \(\frac { 180 }{ 10 }\)
∴ d = 18

iv. When d = 36, n = ?
∴ Substituting d = 36 in (ii), we get
n × d = 180
∴ n × 36 = 180
∴ n = \(\frac { 180 }{ 36 }\)
∴ n = 5

Question 2.
Find constant of variation and write equation of variation for every example given below:
i. \(p \propto \frac{1}{q}\) ; if p = 15 then q = 4.
ii. \(z \propto \frac{1}{w}\) ; when z = 2.5 then w = 24.
iii. \(s \propto \frac{1}{t^{2}}\) ; if s = 4 then t = 5.
iv. \(x \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{y}}\) ; if x = 15 then y = 9.
Solution:
i. \(p \propto \frac{1}{q}\) …[Given]
∴ p = k × \(\frac { 1 }{ q }\)
where, k is the constant of variation.
∴ p × q = k …(i)
When p = 15, q = 4
∴ Substituting p = 15 and q = 4 in (i), we get
p × q = k
∴ 15 × 4 = k
∴ k = 60
Substituting k = 60 in (i), we get
p × q = k
∴ p × q = 60
This is the equation of variation.
∴ The constant of variation is 60 and the equation of variation is pq = 60.

ii. \(z \propto \frac{1}{w}\) …[Given]
∴ z = k × \(\frac { 1 }{ w }\)
where, k is the constant of variation,
∴ z × w = k …(i)
When z = 2.5, w = 24
∴ Substituting z = 2.5 and w = 24 in (i), we get
z × w = k
∴ 2.5 × 24 = k
∴ k = 60
Substituting k = 60 in (i), we get
z × w = k
∴ z × w = 60
This is the equation of variation.
∴ The constant of variation is 60 and the equation of variation is zw = 60.

iii. \(s \propto \frac{1}{t^{2}}\) …[Given]
∴ \(s=k \times \frac{1}{t^{2}}\)
where, k is the constant of variation,
∴ s × t² = k …(i)
When s = 4, t = 5
∴ Substituting, s = 4 and t = 5 in (i), we get
s × t² = k
∴ 4 × (5)² = k
∴ k = 4 × 25
∴ k = 100
Substituting k = 100 in (i), we get
s × t² = k
∴ s × t² = 100
This is the equation of variation.
∴ The constant of variation is 100 and the equation of variation is st² = 100.

iv. \(x \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{y}}\) …[Given]
∴ \(x=\mathrm{k} \times \frac{1}{\sqrt{y}}\)
where, k is the constant of variation,
∴ x × √y = k …(i)
When x = 15, y = 9
∴ Substituting x = 15 and y = 9 in (i), we get
x × √y = k
∴ 15 × √9 = k
∴ k = 15 × 3
∴ k = 45
Substituting k = 45 in (i), we get
x × √y = k
∴ x × √y = 45 .
This is the equation of variation.
∴ The constant of variation is k = 45 and the equation of variation is x√y = 45.

Question 3.
The boxes are to be filled with apples in a heap. If 24 apples are put in a box then 27 boxes are needed. If 36 apples are filled in a box how many boxes will be needed?
Solution:
Let x represent the number of apples in each box and y represent the total number of boxes required.
The number of apples in each box are varying inversely with the total number of boxes.
∴ \(x \infty \frac{1}{y}\)
∴ \(x=k \times \frac{1}{y}\)
where, k is the constant of variation,
∴ x × y = k …(i)
If 24 apples are put in a box then 27 boxes are needed.
i.e., when x = 24, y = 27
∴ Substituting x = 24 and y = 27 in (i), we get
x × y = k
∴ 24 × 27 = k
∴ k = 648
Substituting k = 648 in (i), we get
x × y = k
∴ x × y = 648 …(ii)
This is the equation of variation.
Now, we have to find number of boxes needed
when, 36 apples are filled in each box.
i.e., when x = 36,y = ?
∴ Substituting x = 36 in (ii), we get
x × y = 648
∴ 36 × y = 648
∴ y = \(\frac { 648 }{ 36 }\)
∴ y = 18
∴ If 36 apples are filled in a box then 18 boxes are required.

2. \(\mathrm{I} \propto \frac{1}{\mathrm{d}^{2}}\)

Question 5.
\(x \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{y}}\) and when x = 40 then y = 16. If x = 10, find y.
Solution:
\(x \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{y}}\)
∴ \(x=\mathrm{k} \times \frac{1}{\sqrt{y}}\)
where, k is the constant of variation.
∴ x × √y = k …(i)
When x = 40, y = 16
∴ Substituting x = 40 andy = 16 in (i), we get
x × √y = k
∴ 40 × √16 = k
∴ k = 40 × 4
∴ k = 160
Substituting k = 160 in (i), we get
x × √y = k
∴ x × √y = 160 …(ii)
This is the equation of variation.
When x = 10,y = ?
∴ Substituting, x = 10 in (ii), we get
x × √y = 160
∴ 10 × √y = 160
∴ √y = \(\frac { 160 }{ 10 }\)
∴ √y = 16
∴ y = 256 … [Squaring both sides]

Question 6.
x varies inversely as y, when x = 15 then y = 10, if x = 20, then y = ?
Solution:
Given that,
\(x \propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{y}}\)
∴ \(x=\mathrm{k} \times \frac{1}{\sqrt{y}}\)
where, k is the constant of variation.
∴ x × y = k …(i)
When x = 15, y = 10
∴ Substituting, x = 15 and y = 10 in (i), we get
x × y = k
∴ 15 × 10 = k
∴ k = 150
Substituting, k = 150 in (i), we get
x × y = k
∴ x × y = 150 …(ii)
This is the equation of variation.
When x = 20, y = ?
∴ substituting x = 20 in (ii), we get
x × y = 150
∴ 20 × y = 150
∴ y = \(\frac { 150 }{ 20 }\)
∴ y = 7.5

viii. \(16 a^{3}-\frac{128}{b^{3}}\)
Solution:
i. y³ – 27
= y³ – (3)³
Here, a = y and b = 3
∴ y³ – 27 = (y – 3)[y² + y(3) + (3)2]
…[∵ a³ – b³ = (a – b) (a² + ab + b²)]
= (y – 3)(y² + 3y + 9)

ii. x³ – 64y³

= [(3xy – 2ab) – (3xy + 2ab)] [(3xy – 2ab)² + (3xy – 2ab) (3xy + 2ab) + (3xy + 2ab)²]
…[∵ A³ – B³ = (A – B) (A² + AB + B²)]
= (3xy – 2ab – 3xy – 2ab) [(9x²y² – 12xyab + 4a²b²) + (9x²y² – 4a²b²) + (9x²y² + 12xyab + 4a²b²)]
= (- 4ab) (9x²y² + 9x²y² + 9x²y² – 12xyab + 12xyab + 4a²b² – 4a²b² + 4a²b²)
= (- 4ab) (27 xy² + 4a²b²)
= -108x²y²ab – 16a³b³

Std 8 Maths Practice Set 6.2 Chapter 6 Solutions Answers

Question 1.
Factorise:
i. x³ + 64y³
ii. 125p³ + q³
iii. 125k³ + 27m³
iv. 2l³ + 432m³
v. 24a³ + 81b³
vi. \(y^{3}+\frac{1}{8 y^{3}}\)
vii. \(\mathrm{a}^{3}+\frac{8}{\mathrm{a}^{3}}\)
viii. \(1+\frac{\mathrm{q}^{3}}{125}\)
Solution:
i. x³ + 64y³
= x³ + (4y)³
Here, a = x and b = 4y
∴ x³ + 64y³ = (x + 4y) [x² – x(4y) + (4y)²]
….[∵ a³ + b³ = (a + b)(a² – ab + b²)]
= (x + 4y)(x² – 4xy + 16y²)

ii. 125p³ + q³
= (5p)³ + q³
Here, a = 5p and b = q
∴ 125p³ + q³ = (5p + q)[(5p)² – (5p)(q) + q²]
…[∵ a³ + b³ = (a + b)(a² – ab + b²)]
= (5p + q)(25p² – 5pq + q²)

iii. 125k³ + 27m³
= (5k)³ + (3m)³
Here, a = 5k and b = 3m
∴ 125k³ + 27m³
= (5k + 3m) [(5k)² – (5k)(3m) + (3m)²]
…[∵ a³ + b³ = (a + b)(a² – ab + b²)]
= (5k + 3m)(25k² – 15km + 9m²)

iv. 2l³ + 432m³
= 2 (l³ + 216m³)
… [Taking out the common factor 2]
= 2[l³ + (6m)³]
Here, a = l and b = 6m
2l³ + 432m³ = 2 {(l + 6m)[l² – l(6m) + (6m)²]}
…[∵ a³ + b³ = (a + b)(a² – ab + b²)]
= 2(l + 6m)(l² – 6lm + 36m²)

v. 24a³ + 81b³
…[Taking out the common factor 3]
= 3 [(2a)³ + (3b)³]
Here, A = 2a and B = 3b
∴ 24a³ + 81b³
= 3 {(2a + 3b) [(2a)² – (2a)(3b) + (3b)²]}
…[∵ A³ + B³ = (A + B) (A² – AB + B²)]
= 3(2a + 3b)(4a² – 6ab + 9b²)

vi. \(y^{3}+\frac{1}{8 y^{3}}\)

vii. \(\mathrm{a}^{3}+\frac{8}{\mathrm{a}^{3}}\)

viii. \(1+\frac{\mathrm{q}^{3}}{125}\)

Std 8 Maths Practice Set 6.1 Chapter 6 Solutions Answers

Question 1.
Factorize:
i. x² + 9x + 18
ii. x² – 10x + 9
iii. y² + 24y + 144
iv. 5y² + 5y – 10
v. p² – 2p – 35
vi. p² – 7p – 44
vii. m² – 23m + 120
viii. m² – 25m + 100
ix. 3x² + 14x + 15
x. 2x² + x – 45
xi. 20x² – 26x + 8
xii. 44x² – x – 3
Solution:
i. x² + 9x + 18
= x² + 6x + 3x + 18
= x (x + 6) + 3(x + 6)
= (x + 6) (x + 3)

ii. x² – 10x + 9
= x² – 9x – x + 9
= x (x – 9) – 1(x – 9)
= (x – 9)(x – 1)

iii. y² + 24y + 144
= y² + 12y + 12y + 144
= y(y + 12) + 12(y + 12)
= (y + 12)(y + 12)

iv. 5y² + 5y – 10
= 5(y² + y – 2)
… [Taking out the common factor 5]
= 5(y² + 2y – y – 2)
= 5[y(y + 2) – 1(y + 2)]
= 5 (p + 2)(y- 1)

v. p² – 2p – 35
= p² – 7p + 5p – 35
= p(p – 7) + 5(p – 7)
= (p – 7)(p + 5)

vi. p² – 7p – 44
= p² – 11p + 4p – 44
= p(p – 11) + 4(p – 11)
= (p – 11)(p + 4)

vii. m² – 23m + 120
= m² – 15m – 8m + 120
= m (m – 15) – 8 (m – 15)
= (m – 15) (m – 8)

viii. m² – 25m + 100
= m² – 20m – 5m + 100
= m(m – 20) – 5(m – 20)
= (m – 20) (m – 5)

ix. 3x² + 14x + 15 3 × 15 = 45
= 3x² + 9x + 5x + 15
= 3x(x + 3) + 5(x + 3)
= (x + 3) (3x + 5)

x. 2x² + x – 45 2 × (- 45) = -90
= 2x² + 10x – 9x – 45
= 2x(x + 5) – 9 (x + 5)
= (x + 5) (2x – 9)

xi. 20x² – 26x + 8
= 2(10x² – 13x + 4) 10 × 4 = 40
… [Taking out the common factor 2]
= 2(10x² – 8x – 5x + 4)
= 2[2x(5x – 4) – 1(5x – 4)]
= 2 (5x – 4) (2x – 1)

xii. 44x² – x – 3 44 × (-3) = -132
= 44x² – 12x + 11x – 3
= 4x(11x – 3) + 1(11x – 3)
= (11x – 3) (4x + 1)
