225/81 = (30/x)2
x = 18 cm

Question. In the given Fig., DE || AC and DC || AP Prove that BE/BC = EC/CP

CBSE Class 10 Mathematics Triangles_19

Ans. DE || AC, AD/DB = EC/BE     ...(1) [∵BPT]
DC || AP, AD/DB = CP/BC             ...(2) [∵ BPT]
From (1) and (2), we get
BE/EC = BC/CP

Question. In the given Fig. PQR is a triangle, right angled at Q. If XY || QR, PQ = 6 cm, PY = 4 cm and PX : XQ = 1 : 2. Calculate the lengths of PR and QR.

CBSE Class 10 Mathematics Triangles_20

Ans. PX/XQ = PY/YR ⇒ 1/2 = 4/YR ⇒ YR = 8cm
∴ PR = 8 + 4 = 12cm
QR = √((12)- (6)2) = 6√3 cm

Question. In the given figure, ΔODC ~ ΔOBA, ∠BOC = 115° and ∠CDO = 70°. Find,
(i) ∠DOC,
(ii) ∠DCO,
(iii) ∠OAB,
(iv) ∠OBA.

CBSE Class 10 Mathematics Triangles_21

Ans. (i) 65°
(ii) 45°
(iii) 45°
(iv) 70°

Question. In the given figure, QR/QS = QT/PR and ∠1 = ∠2 then prove that ΔPQS ~ ΔTQR.

CBSE Class 10 Mathematics Triangles_22

Ans. In ΔPQR, ∠1 = ∠2
PR = PQ                                             [Opposite sides of equal angles]
∴ QR/QS = QT/PQ and ∠1 = ∠1            (Common)
∴ ΔPQS ~ ΔTQR                                 (SAS Similarity criterion)

Question. Prove that the sum of the squares of the sides of a rhombus is equal to the sum of the squares of its diagonals.
Ans. 

CBSE Class 10 Mathematics Triangles_23

CBSE Class 10 Mathematics Triangles_24

Question. In the given figure, DE || BC, DE = 3 cm, BC = 9 cm and ar (ΔADE) = 30 cm2. Find ar (BCED).

CBSE Class 10 Mathematics Triangles_25

Ans. 

CBSE Class 10 Mathematics Triangles_26

Question. Two poles of height a metrs and b metres are p metres apart. Prove that the height of the point of intersection of the lines joining the top of each pole to the foot of the opposite pole is given by ab/(a+b) metres.
Ans. 

CBSE Class 10 Mathematics Triangles_27

CBSE Class 10 Mathematics Triangles_28

Question. In the given figure ∠D = ∠E and AD/DB = AE/EC. Prove that ΔBAC is an isoscles triangle.

CBSE Class 10 Mathematics Triangles_29

Ans. AD/DB = AE/EC
By converse of BPT, DE || BC
∴ ∠D = ∠B and ∠E = ∠C                (Corresponding Angles)
But ∠D = ∠E
So, ∠B = ∠C
∴ AB = AC
So, ΔABC is an isosceles triangle.

Question. Two triangles ΔBAC and ΔBDC, right angled at A and D respectively are drawn on the same base BC and on the same side of BC. If AC and DB intersect at P. PRove that AP × PC = DP × PB.

CBSE Class 10 Mathematics Triangles_30

Ans. ΔAPB ~ ΔDPC             (AA Similarity criterion)
AP/DP = PB/PC                  (∵ C.P.S.T.)
AP.PC = DP.PB

Question. A street light bulb is fixed on a pole 6 m above the level of the street. If a woman of height 1.5 m casts a shadow of 3 m, find how far she is away from the base of the pole.
Ans. 

CBSE Class 10 Mathematics Triangles_31

ΔABE ~ ΔCDE
AB/CD = BE/DE
6/1.5 = (3+BD) / 3
BD = 9m

Question. In a quadrilateral ABCD, ∠B = 90°, AD2 = AB2 + BC2 + CD2. Prove that ∠ACD = 90°.

CBSE Class 10 Mathematics Triangles_32

Ans. In right angled ΔABC, AC2 = AB2 + BC               ...(1)
Given, AD2 = (AB2 + BC2) + CD2
⇒ AD2 = AC2 + CD2                               [From (1)]
By converse of Pythagoras theorem, ∠ACD = 90°.

Question. In ΔPQR, PD ⊥ QR such that D lies on QR. If PQ = a, PR = b, QD = c and DR = d and a, b, c, d are positive units. Prove that (a + b) (a – b) = (c + d) (c – d).
Ans. In right angled ΔPDQ,
PD2 = a2 – c2                                ...(1)
In right angled ΔPDR
PD2 = b2 – d2                                ...(2)
From (1) and (2), we have
a2 – c2 = b2 – d2
a2 – b2 = c2 – d2
(a – b) (a + b) = (c + d) (c – d)
