9.
(i) Here, F = ?,V = 6, E = 12
By Euler's formula, we have
F + V-E = 2
On putting the values of V and E, we get
F + 6 - 12 = 2 ⇒ F - 6 = 2 ⇒ F = 2 + 6 = 8
Hence, the number of faces is 8.
(ii) Here, F = 5, V =?,E = 9
By Euler's formula, we have
F + V - E = 2
On putting the values of F and E, we get
5 + V - 9 = 2 ⇒ V - 4 = 2
⇒ V = 2 + 4 ⇒ V = 6
Hence, the number of vertices is 6.
(iii) Here, F = 20, V = 12, E =?
By Euler's formula, we have
F + V - E = 2
On putting the values of F and V, we get
20 + 12 - E = 2 ⇒ 32 - E = 2
⇒ 32 - 2 = E ⇒ E =30
Hence, number of edges is 30.
10.
(a) The shaded (coloured) map according to the question is as follows:
(b) Intersection of road C and Nehru road is marked by X and intersection of Gandhi road and road A is marked by Yin map given in (a) part.
(c) Short street route from library to the bus depot is Library ⟶ Nehru road ⟶ Road C ⟶ Bus depot.
(d) City Park is in the East.
(e) Sr. Secondary School is in the South.
