1.

2.
In the adjacent figure, we have \(\triangle PQR\) We know that, a median connects a vertex of a triangle to the mid-point of the opposite side. On joining Q and mid-point of PR, i.e. E.We get the required median QE.

3.
Since\(\angle\) b and \(\angle\) d form a linear pair.
\(\therefore\) \(\angle\) b + \(\angle\) d = 180°
Similarly, \(\angle\)c + \(\angle\)e = 180°
and \(\angle\)a + \(\angle\)f = 180°
Adding the angles on both sides, we get
\(\angle\)b + \(\angle\)c + \(\angle\)a + \(\angle\)d +\(\angle\)e + \(\angle\)f
= 180° + 180° + 180°
\(\Rightarrow\) (\(\angle\)a +\(\angle\)b + \(\angle\)c) + (\(\angle\)d + \(\angle\)e + \(\angle\)f) = 540°
But \(\angle\)d + \(\angle\)e + \(\angle\)f= 180°
[\(\because\) Sum of angles of a triangle is 180°.]
\(\therefore\) (\(\angle\)a + \(\angle\)b + \(\angle\)c) + (180°) = 540°
\(\Rightarrow\) (\(\angle\)a + \(\angle\)b + \(\angle\)c) = 540° - 180°
\(\Rightarrow\)\(\angle\)a + \(\angle\)b +\(\angle\)c = 360°
i.e. Sum of exterior angles of \(\triangle\)ABC is 360°.
4.
We know that, On the basis of sides, a triangle is called
(i) scalene triangle, if all three sides of triangle are unequal.
(ii) isosceles triangle, if any rwo sides are equal.
(iii) equilateral triangle, if all three sides are equal.
On the basis of angles, a triangle is called
(i) acute angled triangle, if each angle is less than 90°.
(ii) right angled angled triangle, if one angle is a right angle.
(iii) obtuse angled triangle, if one angle is greater than 90°. Now,
Now,
(i) (a) In \(\triangle ABC\),AC=BC=8 cm
i.e. rwo sides are equal
Therefore,\(\triangle ABC\) is an isosceles triangle.
(b) Also, all the angles of \(\triangle ABC\) are less than 90°.
Therefore,\(\triangle ABC\) is an acute angled triangle.
(ii) (a) In \(\triangle PQR\),\(PQ\neq QR\neq RP \) [given]
i. e. all three sides are unequal.
Therefore,\(\triangle PQR\) is a scalene triangle.
(b) Also,\(\angle R=90^0\) [given]
Therefore, \(\triangle PQR\) is a right angled triangle.
(iii) (a) In \(\triangle LMN\),LN=MN=7cm
i.e. rwo sides are equal.
Therefore,\(\triangle LMN\) is an isosceles triangle.
(b) Also,\(\angle N>90^0\) [given]
Therefore,\(\triangle LMN\) is an obtuse angled triangle.
(iv) (a) In \(\triangle RST\),RS = ST = TR = 5.2 cm [given]
i.e. all three sides are equal.
Therefore,\(\triangle RST\) is an equilateral triangle.
(b) Also, all the angles of \(\triangle RST\) are acute.
Therefore,\(\triangle RST\) is an acute angled triangle.
(v) (a) In \(\triangle ABC\),AB = BC = 3 cm
i.e. rwo sides are equal.
Therefore,\(\triangle ABC\) is an isosceles angled triangle.
(b) Also,\(\angle B>90^0\)
Therefore, \(\triangle ABC\) is an obtuse angled triangle.
(vi) (a) In \(\triangle PQR\),PQ = QR = 6 cm [given]
i.e. rwo sides are equal.
Therefore, \(\triangle PQR\) is an isosceles triangle.
(b) Also,\(\angle Q=90^0\) [given]
Therefore \(\triangle PQR\) is a right angled angled triangle.
5.
Draw a line segment Be. By paper folding locate the perpendicular bisector of BC.The folded crease meets BC at D, its mid-point.
Take any point A on this perpendicular bisector. Join AB and Ae. Thus, the triangle obtained is an isoscelesMBC in which AB = AC.
Since, D is the mid-point of BC, so, AD is its median. Also, AD is perpendicular bisector of Be. So, AD is the altitude of \(\triangle ABC\).
Thus, it is verified that the median and altitude of an isoscelestriangle are same.

(i) x + y = 1200 ...(1)
The exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of its two interior opposite angles
x + y + y = 1800
Base angles opposite to the equal sides of an isosceles triangle are equal and the sum of the measures of the three angles of a triangle is 1800
\(\Rightarrow\)x + 2y = 1800 ... (2)
Subtracting equation (1) from equation (2),
y = 60°
Put y = 60° in equation (1),
x + 60° = 120°
\(\Rightarrow\)x = 120° - 60°
\(\Rightarrow\)x = 60°
