10th Solved Maths Sample Paper

General Instruction:
(A) This paper consists of two parts namely Part-A and Part-B
(B) Part -A include four sections for time duration of 2 hours and 35 marks as total.
(C) Part-B is for time duration 1/2 hour and contain 15 marks as total.
(D) Marks are allotted to respective questions.

PART – A.                                               Time: 2 Hours PART- A Marks: 35

Note: Answer any  FIVE questions choosing at least TWO from each group. Each question carries TWO marks.

GROUP – A      5 * 2 = 10

1. Find the [HCF X LCM] for the numbers 100 and 190.
Solution: 
100 = 5² X 2²
190 = 2 X 5 X 19
∴ H.C.F. (100, 190) = 2 X 5 = 10
L.C.M(100, 190) = 1900
∴ H.C.F. X L.C.M. = 10 X 1900= 19000

2. If 1 is a zero of the polynomial p(x) = ax² – 3(a – 1)x – 1, then find the value of a.
Solution:
Given that 1 is a zero of a polynomial
Therefore,
p(1) = 0
a(1)² – 3 (a – 1) (1) – 1 = 0
a – 3(a – 1) – 1 = 0
a – 3a + 3 – 1 = 0
-2a + 2 = 0
2a = 2
a = 1
Hence value of a is 1

3. In ΔLMN, ∠L = 50° and ∠N = 60°. If Δ LMN ~ ΔPQR, then find ∠Q.
Solution:
In ΔLMN,  ∠L + ∠M+ ∠N = 180° ( sum of 3 angles in a Δ is 180°)
50° + ∠M + 60° = 180°
∠M = 70°
Since ΔLMN ~ΔPQR
∠M = ∠Q = 70°
Hence ∠Q is 70°

GROUP – B

 4. If sec²θ (1 + sin θ)(1 – sin θ) = k, then find k.
Solution:
sec²θ (1 + sin θ) (1 – sin θ) = k
sec²θ (1 – sin²) = k
sec²(cos²θ) = k
1 = k
∴ k = 1

5. If the diameter of a semicircular protractor is 14  cm, what is its perimeter.
Solution:
Diameter = 14 cm
Radius
Perimeter is = pr+ 2r = 36 cm

SECTION – II           

Note: Answer any FOUR. Each question carries ONE mark.    4 * 1 = 4

6. Find the number of solutions of the following pair of linear equations:x + 2y – 8 =0 and 2x + 4y =1
Solution: Infinitely many solutions

7. Find the discriminant of the equation .
Solution:  Discriminant =  100 – 36 = 6

8. If one of the roots of the quadratic equation  is 4, then the value of p is:
A. 7
B. -7
C. 5
D. 8

9. If the 17^th term of an AP exceeds the 10^th term by 7, then the common difference is:
A. 3
B. 2
C. 1
D. 4

SECTION – III  

Note: Answer any FOUR questions. Each question carries FOUR marks.   4 *4 = 16

 10. Find all the zeroes of the polynomial x³ + 3x² – 2x – 6.
Solution:
Let P(x) = x³ + 3x² – 2x – 6
Given two zeroes of the given polynomial P(x) = x³ + 3x² – 2x – 6  are  and 
→ x² – 2  is a factor.
Now, we apply the division algorithm to P(x) and x² – 2
 → P(x) = x³ + 3x² – 2x – 6 = (x² – 2) (x + 3)
→ x + 3 is a factor of P(x)
∴  -3 is the other zero of the polynomial.

11. In the A.P. 3, 15, 27, 39, … which term will be 120 more than the twenty first term?
Solution:
Given A.P. is  3, 15, 27, 39, …
Here a = 3, d = t₂ – t₁ = 15 – 3 = 12
n^th term of A.P. = t_n = a + (n – 1)d
Put n = 21
→ t₂₁ = 3 + (21 – 1)12
→ t₂₁ = 3 + (20)12
→ t₂₁ = 243
Let t_m be the term which is 120 more than 21^st term
→ t_m = t₂₁ + 120
→ t_m­ = 243 + 120
→ a + (m – 1)d = 363
→ 3+ (m – 1)12 = 363
→  (m – 1)12 = 363 – 3= 360
→ m – 1 = 30
→ m = 31
Hence, the 31^st term of the A.P. is 120 more than its twenty first term.     

 12.  In the figure below, Δ ABD is a right triangle, 90 degree at A and AC ^ BD. Prove that   AB² = BC .
Solution:
In ΔABC,
∠BAC + ∠CBA = 90° … (1)
In ΔABD
∠BDA + ∠CBA = 90° … (2)
From (1) and (2)
∠BAC = ∠BDA
In ΔBAC and  ΔBDA
∠BAC = ∠BDA
∠ACB = ∠DAB [Each is equal to 90°]
∴ ΔBAC ~ ΔBDA [A.A similarity criterion]
[ sides are proportional]
→ BA² = BC . BD
→ AB² = BC . BD

GROUP – B
 
13. Calculate tan 60 practically.
Solution:
ABC is an equilateral triangle.
So each angle is 60°,
therefore ∠A = ∠B = ∠C = 60°
A perpendicular AD from A to BC is drawn.
Now in triangles ABD and ACD, AB = AC
[ ΔABC is equilateral]
AD = AD = common
∠ADB = ∠ADC = 90°
∴ ΔADB @ ΔADC [RHS rule]
∴BD = DC [CPCT]

Now, AD² = AB² – BD²

SECTION – IV 

Note: This question carries FIVE marks. 1 × 5 = 5

14. The sum of two numbers is 8. if the sum of their reciprocals is What are the nos.
Solution:
Given sum of two numbers = 8
Sum of their reciprocals =
Let the numbers be x and y
∴ x + y = 8 ……..(1)
And
∴  xy = 15
Substitute x value in equation (1)
→ y² – 8y + 15 = 0
→ y² – 5y – 3y + 15 = 0
→ y(y – 5) – 3(y – 5) = 0
→  (y – 3) (y – 5) = 0
→ y = 3 or 5
Case (i) If y = 3,
∴ x = 5 and y = 3
Case (ii): If y = 5,
∴ x = 3 and y = 5

PART – B                                                                                                Time: 30 mins Marks: 15

Note:  Each question carries 1/2 mark.

15.  Draw a right triangle in which sides (other than hypotenuse) are of lengths 8 cm and 6 cm. Thereafter draw another triangle where sides are  times the corresponding sides of the first triangle.
Solution
 Steps of construction
1. Draw a right triangle using given conditions. Consider the triangle as ΔABC in which BC = 8 cm and AB = 6 cm, and ∠B = 90°
2. Make any acute angle ∠CBX below the line BC
3.Locate 4 points (greater of 3 and 4 in ) B₁, B₂, B₃, B₄ on BX such that BB₁ = B₁B₂ = B₂B₃ = B₃B₄
4 . Join B₄ and C
5. Through B₃, draw a line parallel to B₄C meeting BC in C’.
6. Again draw a line through C’ parallel to CA meeting BA in A’ on being. ΔA’BC’ is the    required triangle whole sides are ¾ times the sides of ΔABC.

17. In the figure below, M is mid-point of CD. The line BM intersects AC at L and AD produced at E.  Prove that EL = 2 BL.
Solution: In Δ’s DME and BMC
DM = MC[ M is midpoint of DC]
∠DME = ∠BMC (vertically opposite angles)
∠MDE = ∠MCB [ alternate angles]
ΔDME @ ΔBMC [ASA congruence rule]
∴ BC = DE (CPCT)
But BC = AD [ ABCD is a parallogerm]
AE = AD + DE
= BC + BC
AE = 2 BC — (1)
In Δ’s BLC and ALE
∠BLC = ∠ALE [vertically opposite angles]
∠CBL = ∠AEL [alternate angles]
ΔBLC ~ ΔALE [AA similarity criterion]
∴ EL = 2 BL

18. Find the area of the quadrilateral ABCD whose vertices are A(-4, -2), B(-3, -5),  C(3, -2) and  D(2,3)
Solution:
A(-4, -2) ,B(-3, -5), C(3, -2) and D(2, 3).
Area of the quadrilateral
ABCD = Area of ΔABD + area of ΔBDC
∴ Area of Δ BDC =
∴ Area of quadrilateral ABCD =

19. If -5 is a root of the quadratic equation 2x² + px – 15 = 0 and the equation p(x² +x) + k = 0 has discriminant zero, find  p and k.
Solution:
Given that -5 is a root of 2x² + px – 15 = 0
∴2(-5)² + p(-5) – 15 = 0
50 – 5p – 15 = 0
5p = 35
p = 7
Putting p = 7,we get
7x² + 7x + k = 0
Since above equation has discriminant zero, b² – 4ac = 0
∴ 49 – 4(7)k = 0  ( a = 7, b = 7, c = k)
28k = 49

20. Prove that the lengths of the tangents drawn from an external point to a circle are equal.Using the above theorem, prove than If quadrilateral ABCD is circumscribing a circle, then AB + CD = AD + BC
Solution: Ist part:
CB = CD (Radii of the same circle)
AC = AC (common)
∠CBA=∠CDA=90°
ΔCBA @ ΔCDA (RHS)
→ AB = AD (CPCT)
Hence the tangents are equal.
IInd part:
The tangents drawn from an external point to a circle are equal and
A is a point outside the circle and AP, AS are the tangents to the circle
→ AP = AS …..(1)
BP = BQ ……….(2)
CR = CQ …………..(3)
And DR = DS ……..(4)
Adding,  (AP + BP) + (CR + DR) = AS + BQ + CQ + DS
→ AB + CD = (AS + DS) + (BQ + CQ)
→AB + CD = AD + BC

 21.A plane when flying at a height of 3125 m from the ground passes vertically below another plane at an instant when the angles of elevation of the two planes from the same point on the ground are 30° and 60° respectively. Find the length of ground between the two planes at that instant.
Solution:
Let at some instant, A₁ be the 1^st aero plane A₂ be the 2^nd plane A₁A₂ is the vertical distance between these plane at that instant.
Let, BC = x m and A₁ A₂ = h m
From the ΔA₁BC we have,
From ΔA₂BC we have,
→ h = 3 X 3125 – 3125
→ h = 2 X 3125 = 6250
Hence the length of ground between the two planes at that instant is 6250 m.
