Let us make Ceasar Cipher table first. Here, we have to set to + 4 table. For that, we have to start letter e to set as A, f as B … likewise d as Z. Now, the + 4 Ceasar Cipher table looks like
| Plain Text | a | b | c | d | e | f | g | h | i | j | k | l | m | n | o | p | q | r | s | t | u | v | w | x | y | z |
| Cipher Text | W | X | Y | Z | A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | I | J | K | L | M | N | O | P | Q | R | S | T | U | V |
The given plain text is

To crack this secret code, follow the steps given below.
Step 1: Using Ceasar Cipher table, let us first match the most repeated letters. This will help us to progress faster.

Thus, the secret sentence is, BREAK IN CODES CAN BE TRICKY
2.
Given, the train runs constantly at a speed of 80 km/hr.
i.e For 1 hour = 80 km
2 hours = 2 × 80 = 160 km
3 hours = 3 × 80 = 240 km
| Hour | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
| Distance | 80 | 160 | 240 | 320 | 400 |
We can tabulate as above, Take a suitable scale
1) Mark the number of hours on the x-axis.
2) Mark the distance inKm on the y-axis.
3) Plot the points (1,80) (2,160) (3,240) (4,320) and (5,400).
4) Join the points and get a straight line3.
5) From the graph.
(i) Time taken to cover 240 km is 3 hrs.
(ii) Th e distance covered in 5 ½ hrs 440 km.

Using the formula for calculating the simple interest, the following table of values is prepared.
| Deposit(in.Rs) | 100 | 200 | 300 | 500 | 1000 |
| Anaual S.I(in.Rs) | 10 | 20 | 30 | 50 | 100 |
| Deposit | Interest |
| 100 | \(\frac { 100\times 1\times 10 }{ 100 } \)=10 |
| 200 | \(\frac { 200\times 1\times 10 }{ 100 } \)=20 |
| 300 | \(\frac { 300\times 1\times 10 }{ 100 } \)=30 |
| 500 | \(\frac { 500\times 1\times 10 }{ 100 } \)=50 |
| 1000 | \(\frac { 1000\times 1\times 10 }{ 100 } \)=100 |
These are the points which are to be plotted in the graph sheet. Let us take the deposits along x-axis and
annual simple interest along y-axis.
We choose the scale as follows:
Then we plot the points and draw the straight line.
From the graph we find:
(i) Corresponding to Rs.300 on the x-axis, we get the interest as Rs.30 on the y-axis.
(ii) Corresponding to Rs.70 on the y-axis, we get the deposit as Rs.700 on the x-axis.

The above figure clearly forms the sequence is 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8... Here, we find the pattern in which each number is in the Fibonacci sequence, obtained by adding together with previous two. Going on like this to find subsequent numbers at the twelfth month, we will get 144 pairs of rabbits. In the other words, twelfth Fibonacci number is 144.
| Number of months | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 |
| Number of pairs of rabbits | 1 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 5 | 8 | 13 | 21 | 34 | 55 | 89 | 144 |

Given:
DC = 8 cm, UK = 6 cm and ㄥDOU = 1100
.png)

Steps:
1. Draw a line segment DC = 8 cm.
2. Mark O the midpoint of \(\overset { \_ \_ }{ DC } \).
3. Draw a line \(\overset { \_ \_ }{ XY } \) through O which makes ㄥDOY = 1100.
4. With O as centre and 3 cm as radius draw two arcs on \(\overset { \_ \_ }{XY } \)on either sides of \(\overset { \_ \_ }{DC } \). Let the arcs cut \(\overset { \_ \_ }{ OX } \)at K and \(\overset { \_ \_ }{OY } \) at U
5. Join \(\overset { \_ \_ }{DU } \) , \(\overset { \_ \_ }{UC } \), \(\overset { \_ \_ }{CK } \) and \(\overset { \_ \_ }{KD } \).
6. DUCK is the required parallelogram.
Calculation of Area:
Area of the parallelogram DUCK = bh sq.units
= 5.8 x 3.9 = 22.62sq.cm
7.
(Rearranging the like terms)
\(\frac { 4y }{ 3 } -\frac { 2 }{ 5 } =7\)
\(\frac { 20y-6y }{ 15 } =7\)
14y = 7 ×15
y = \(\frac { 7\times 15 }{ 2 } \)
y = \(\frac { 15 }{ 2 } \)
8.
3x = 51 (Given)
3 x x = 51
\(\frac { 3\times x }{ 3 } =\frac { 51 }{ 3 } (\div 3\quad on\quad both\quad sides)\)
x = 17
likewise, doing division by 3 on both sides is the same as changing the number 3 on the LHS to it's reciprocal \(\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \) and multiplying it on the RHS and vice-versa.

9.
Let the number be x.
4 times the number is 4x.
Adding 18 now, we get 18 + 4x.
The result now should be 28.
Thus, the equation has to be 18 + 4x = 28.
10.
C.I –S.I = P\({ \left( \frac { r }{ 100 } \right) }^{ 2 }\)= 5000 x \(\frac { 4 }{ 100 } \times \frac { 4 }{ 100 } \) = Rs 8
(ii) C.I –S.I = P\({ \left( \frac { r }{ 100 } \right) }^{ 2 }\left( 2+\frac { r }{ 100 } \right) \)
= 8000 x \(\frac { 5 }{ 100 } \times \frac { 5 }{ 100 } \) x \(\left( 3+\frac { 5 }{ 100 } \right) \)
= 20 x \(\frac { 61 }{ 20 } \) = Rs.61
11.
Depreciated value = P\({ \left( 1-\frac { r }{ 100 } \right) }^{ n }\)
= 70000\({ \left( 1-\frac { 4 }{ 100 } \right) }^{ 2 }\)
= 70000 x \(\frac { 96 }{ 100 } \times \frac { 96 }{ 100 } \)
= Rs.64512
12.
(i) Amount, A = P\({ \left( 1+\frac { r }{ 100 } \right) }^{ n }\)
= 4000\({ \left( 1+\frac { 5 }{ 100 } \right) }^{ 2 }\)
= 4000 x \(\frac { 21 }{ 20 } \)x\(\frac { 21 }{ 20 } \)
A = Rs. 4410
∴C.I = A − P = 4410 – 4000 = Rs. 410
(ii) Amount, A = P\({ \left( 1+\frac { r }{ 100 } \right) }^{ 2n }\)= 5000\({ \left( 1+\frac { 4 }{ 200 } \right) }^{ 2\times \frac { 3 }{ 2 } }\) = 5000 x \(\frac { 51 }{ 50 } \times \frac { 51 }{ 50 } \times \frac { 51 }{ 50 } \)
= 51 × 10.2 × 10.2
= Rs. 5306.04
∴ C.I = A − P = Rs.5306.04 – Rs.5000
= Rs.306.04
(iii) A = P\(\left( 1+\frac { a }{ 100 } \right) \left( 1+\frac { b }{ 100 } \right) \)
= 3000\(\left( 1+\frac { 7 }{ 100 } \right) \left( 1+\frac { 8 }{ 100 } \right) \)
= 30000 x \(\frac { 107 }{ 100 } \times \frac { 108 }{ 100 } \)
= Rs.34668
∴ C.I = A − I = 34668 - 30000 = 4668.
(iv) A = P\({ \left( 1+\frac { r }{ 100 } \right) }^{ a }\left( 1+\frac { \frac { b }{ c } \times r }{ 100 } \right) =10000{ \left( 1+\frac { 8 }{ 100 } \right) }^{ 2 }\left( 1+\frac { \frac { 3 }{ 4 } \times 8 }{ 100 } \right) \)
= 10000\({ \left( \frac { 27 }{ 25 } \right) }^{ 2 }\left( \frac { 53 }{ 50 } \right) \)
= 10000 x \(\frac { 27 }{ 25 } \times \frac { 27 }{ 25 } \times \left( \frac { 53 }{ 50 } \right) \)
A = 12363.84
∴C.I = 12363.84 − 10,000
= Rs.2363.84
13.
As Δ ABC is equilateral from the figure, AB = BC = AC = (x − 2) cm.
∴ From Δ BCD, by Pythagoras theorem
BD2 = BC2 + CD2
⇒ (x + 2)2 = (x − 2)2 + 82
x2 + 4x + 4 = x2 − 4x + 4 + 82
⇒ 8x = 82
⇒ x = 8 cm
∴ The side of the equilateral Δ ABC = 6 cm and BD = 10 cm.

14.
Now Δ ABC is right angled.
Therefore, by Pythagoras theorem,
AC2 = AB2 + BC2
⇒ AC2 = 82 +152 = 64 + 225 = 289
AC2 = 172
⇒ AC = 17m.
Therefore, the length of the diagonal of the two intersecting roads is 17 m.
15.
The ladder, wall and the ground form a right triangle with the ladder as the hypotenuse. From the figure, by Pythagoras theorem,
202 = 162 + x2
⇒ 400 = 256 + x2
⇒ x2 = 400 − 256 = 144 = 122
⇒ x = 12 feet
Therefore, the base (foot) of the ladder is 12 feet away from the wall.

16.
a) Δ ABC is right angled as AB ⊥ AC at A.
b) AB and AC are legs of Δ ABC.
c) CB is called as the hypotenuse.
d) ㄥB + ㄥC = 900 and equal angles are opposite to equal sides. Hence, ㄥB = ㄥC = \(\frac { { 90 }^{ 0 } }{ 2 } \) = 450
17.
Increase in population = 25000 − 20000
= 5000
∴ Percentage increase in population =\(\frac { 5000 }{ 20000 } \)x 100
= 25%
18.
Let the total votes polled be x.
Votes polled in favour in A = 58% of x =\(\frac { 58x }{ 100 } \)
Votes polled in favour of B = (100 − 58)% of x = 42% of x = \(\frac { 42x }{ 100 } \)
Given, Winning margin A− B = 192
That is, \(\frac { 58x }{ 100 } \)- \(\frac { 42x }{ 100 } \) = 192
⇒\(\frac { 16x }{ 100 } \)=192
x = 192 x \(\frac { 100 }{ 16 } \)
x = 1200 votes
19.
Let the number be x.
x-\(\frac { 25 }{ 100 } x\) = 120
\(\frac { 100x-25x }{ 100 } \) = 120
\(\frac { 75x }{ 100 } \) = 120
x = \(\frac { 120\times 100 }{ 75 } \)
x = 160
20.
Number of students who did not pass = 30% of boys + 15% of girls
=\(\frac { 30 }{ 100 } \) x 900 + \(\frac { 15 }{ 100 } \) x 600
= 270 + 90 = 360
∴ Percentage of students who did not pass =\(\frac { 360 }{ 1500 } \) x 100 = 24%
