\(\frac{t_{2}}{t_{1}}=\frac{44}{4}=11
\)
\(\frac{t_{3}}{t_{2}}=\frac{444}{44}=\frac{111}{11}
\)
\(\frac{t_{4}}{t_{3}}=\frac{4444}{444}=\frac{1111}{111}
\)
The ratios between the successive terms are not equal. Therefore the sequence 4, 44, 444,... are not in G.P.

t2 - t1 = 5\(\sqrt { 2 } \) - 3\(\sqrt { 2 } \) = 2\(\sqrt { 2 } \)
t3 - t1 = 7\(\sqrt { 2 } \) - 5\(\sqrt { 2 } \) = 2\(\sqrt { 2 } \)
t4 - t3 =9\(\sqrt { 2 } \) - 7\(\sqrt { 2 } \) = 2\(\sqrt { 2 } \)
Thus, the differences between consecutive terms are equal. Hence the terms of the sequence 3\(\sqrt { 2 } \), 5\(\sqrt { 2 } \), 7\(\sqrt { 2 } \), 9\(\sqrt { 2 } \) ..... are in A.P
11.
(i) Given P(A) = 0.42
P(not A) = 1 - P(A)
\(\mathrm{P}(\bar{A})=1-0.42=0.58\)
(ii) Given P(B) = 0.48
P(not B) = 1 - P(B)
\(\mathrm{P}(\bar{B})=1-0.48=0.52\)
(iii) P(A or B) = \(P(A \cup B)\)
\(=\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{A})+\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{B})-\mathrm{P}(A \cap B)\)
= 0.42 + 0.48 - 015
= 0.90 - 0.16
P(A or B) = 0.74

Co-efficient of variation is 52%

Let AD is the first building.
BC is the second building.
AD = BE = BC - CE
From the right triangle CED
\(\tan 45^{\circ} =\frac{C E}{D E} \)
\(1 =\frac{C E}{A B}=\frac{C E}{70 m} \)
CE = 70 m
BE = BC - EC
= 120 m - 70 m = 50 m
AD = 50 m
Height of the first building is 50 m.
14.
15.
Let r be the radius of the sphere. Given that, surface area of sphere = 154 m2
4\(\pi\)r2 = 154
\(4\times \frac { 22 }{ 7 } \times { r }^{ 2 }=154\)
gives \({ r }^{ 2 }=154\times \frac { 1 }{ 4 } \times \frac { 7 }{ 22 } \)
hence, \({ r }^{ 2 }=\frac { 49 }{ 4 } \)We get r = \(\frac{7}{2}\)
Therefore, diameter is 7 m
16.

We have AB = 56.cm, AD = 14. cm, AC = 72. cm and AE = 18.cm.
BD = AB - AD = 5.6 –1.4 = 4.2 cm
and EC = AC – AE = 7.2–1.8 = 5.4 cm
\(\frac { AD }{ DB } =\frac { 1.4 }{ 4.2 } =\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \) and \(\frac { AE }{ EC } =\frac { 1.8 }{ 5.4 } =\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \)
\(\frac { AD }{ DB } =\frac { AE }{ EC } \)
Therefore, by converse of Basic Proportionality Theorem, we have DE is parallel to BC. Hence proved.
17.
f(x) = x2 - 2 where x \(\in \){ -2, -1, 0, 3}
(i) f( -2) = ( -2)2 - 2 = 2; f( -1) = ( -1)2 - 2 = -1
f(0) = (0)2 - 2 = - 2 ; f(3) = (3)2 - 2 = 7
Therefore, f = {(-2, 2), (-1, -1), (0, -2), (3, 7)}
(ii) We note that each element in the domain of f has a unique image. Therefore f is a function.
18.
In Is \(\triangle\)ABC ~ \(\triangle\)PQR
\(\frac { PQ }{ AB } =\frac { 3 }{ 6 } =\frac { 1 }{ 2 } ;\frac { QR }{ BC } =\frac { 4 }{ 10 } =\frac { 2 }{ 5 } \)
Since \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \neq \frac { 2 }{ 5 } ,\frac { PQ }{ AB } \neq \frac { QR }{ BC } \)
The corresponding sides are not proportional.
Therefore \(\triangle\)ABC is not similar to \(\triangle\)PQR.

Let a natural number be x.
The next number = x + 1
x (x + 1) = 20
X2+x-20 = 0
(x + 5)(x - 4) = 0
x=-5,4
∴ x=4
(∵ x≠-5, x is a natural number
The next number = 4 + 1= 5
Two consecutive numbers are 4,5.

\(\cfrac { 4f(-3)+2f(4) }{ f(-6)-3f(1) } \)
For f(1) & f(3)
Since 1 & 3 lies between -5 ≤ x ≤2, We take, f(x) = x +5
f(1) = 1 + 5 = 6
f(-3) = -3 +5 = 2
For f(4): Since 4 lies between 2 < x < 6 We take, f(x) = x -1
f(4) = 4 -1 = 3
For f(-6): Since -6 lies between -7≤ x < -5 ,We take, f(x) = x² + 2x +1
f(-6) = (-6)² + 2(-6) + 1 = 36 -12 + 1 = 24 +1 = 25
Now ,\(\cfrac { 4f(-3)+2f(4) }{ f(-6)-3f(1) } \) =\(\frac{ 4(2) +2(3) }{ 25 - 3(6)}\)
= \(\frac{ 8 + 6 }{ 25 -18}\)

Let TR = y. Since, OT is perpendicular bisector of PQ
PR = QR = 4 cm
In\(\triangle\)ORP, OP2 = OR2 + PR2
OR2 = OP2 - PR2
OR2 = 52 - 42 = 25 - 16 = 9 \(\Rightarrow\) OR = 3cm
OT = OR + RT = 3 + y ..(1)
In \(\triangle\)PRT, TP2 + TR2 + PR2 ..(2)
and \(\triangle\)OPT we have, OT2 = TP2 + OP2
OT2 = (TR2 + PR2) + OP2 (substitute for TP2 from (2))
(3 + y)2 = y2 + 42 + 52 (substitute for OT from (1))
9 + 6y2 + 16 + 25 therefore \(y=TR=\frac { 16 }{ 3 } \)
6y = 41 - 9 we get \(y=\frac { 16 }{ 3 } \)
From (2), TP2 = TR2 + PR2
\(TP2=\left( \frac { 16 }{ 3 } \right) +4^{ 2 }=\frac { 256 }{ 9 } +16=\frac { 400 }{ 9 } \)so, \(TP=\frac { 20 }{ 3 } \)

Diameter of Glass = 20 cm

water upto height = 9 cm
radius of cylindrical metal = 5 cm
height of cylindrical metal = 4 cm
Volume of water displaced = Volume of cylindrical metal
\(\pi r_{1}^{2} h_{1}=\pi r_{2}^{2} h_{2}
\)
\((10)^{2} h_{1}=(5)^{2}(4)

\(h_{1}=\frac{100}{100}=1 \mathrm{~cm}

Let r and R be the inner and outer radii of the hollow sphere.
Given that, inner diameter d = 14 cm; inner radius r = 7 cm; thickness = 1 mm = \(\frac{1}{10}\)cm
Outer radius R = 7 + \(\frac { 1 }{ 10 } =\frac { 71 }{ 10 } =7.1cm\)
Volume of hollow sphere \(=\frac { 4 }{ 3 } \pi \left( { R }^{ 3 }-{ r }^{ 3 } \right) cu.cm\)
\(=\frac { 4 }{ 3 } \times \frac { 22 }{ 7 } (357.91-343)=62.48cm^{ 3 }\)
But, weight of brass in 1 cm3 = 17.3 gm
Total weight = 17362 x 62.48 = 1080.90 gm
Therefore, total weight is 1080.90 grams.

Given that radius and height of a cylinder are in the ratio 5 : 7
\(\text { i.e., } \frac{r}{h}=\frac{5}{7} \Rightarrow \mathrm{h}=\frac{7 r}{5}\)
Curved surface area = 5500 sq. cm
\(2 \pi r h =5500 \)
\(2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times r \times \frac{7 r}{5} =5500 \)
\(r^{2} =\frac{5500 \times 5}{2 \times 22} \)
\(r^{2} =625 \Rightarrow r=25 \)
\(=\frac{7(25)}{5}=35 \)
radius = 25 cm, height = 35 cm

Given: A quadrilateral ABCD in which AB = AD and the bisectors of \(\angle\)BAC and \(\angle\)CAD meet the sides BC and CD at E and F respectively.
To prove: EF || BD
Construction: Join AC, BD and EF.
Proof: In \(\triangle\)CAB, AE is the bisector of \(\angle\)BAC
\(\therefore \frac{A C}{A B}=\frac{C E}{B E}\) ......(1)
In \(\triangle\)ACD , AF is the bisector of \(\angle\)CAD
\( \frac{A C}{A D} =\frac{C F}{D F} \)
\(\Rightarrow \ \frac{A C}{A B} =\frac{C F}{D F}\) ......(2)
From (1) and (2) we get
\( \frac{C E}{B E}=\frac{C F}{D F} \)
\(\frac{C E}{E B}=\frac{C F}{F D}\)
Thus in \(\triangle\)CBD, E and F divide the sides CB and CD respectively in the same ratio.
By the converse of Thales theorem, we have EF || BD.

i) f: R ⟶ R and f(x) = 2x + 1

when x = 0, f(0) = 2 (0) + 1 = 1 \( \in\) R
when x = 1,f (1) = 2(1) + 1 = 3 \( \in\) R and soon
For every value of x \( \in\) R, f (x) also \( \in\) R.
The function is well defined and it is one-to-one function (Injective)
For f (x) : R ⟶ R , the domain and range are also well defined. So it is an onto function (Surjective)
Thus, the function is one - to one onto i.e. Bijective function.
(ii) f : R ⟶ R , f(x) = 3 - 4x2
when x = 0, f (0) = 3 - 4(0) = 3 \( \in\) R
when x = 1, f (1) = 3 - 4(1)2 = -1 \( \in\) R
when x = 2, f (2) = 3 - 4(2)2 = 13 \( \in\) R
when x = -1, f (-1) = 3 - 4(-1)2 = -1 \( \in\) R
when x = -2, f (-2) = 3 - 4(-2)2 = -13 \( \in\) R
From this, it is clear that two or more elements having same image in the co-domain So, it is not one-to-one and it is many-to-one function. Hence it is not Bijective.
