Solution:
No, the quadrilateral ABCD cannot be constructed with the given combination of measurements. If the length of side BC or DC is given, then only □ ABCD can be constructed.

Think, Discuss and Write (Textbook Page No. 60)

Question (i).
We saw that 5 measurements of a quadrilateral can determine a quadrilateral uniquely. Do you think any five measurements of the quadrilateral can do this ?
Solution:
No, any 5 measurements can’t determine a s quadrilateral. To construct a quadrilateral, specific combination of measurements should be needed such as :

  • Four sides and one diagonal
  • Four sides and one angle
  • Three sides and two diagonals
  • Two adjacent sides and three angles
  • Three sides and two included angles
  • Some special properties should be given,

Question (ii).
Can you draw a parallelogram BATS where BA = 5 cm, AT = 6 cm and AS = 6.5 cm? Why?
Solution:
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 4 Practical Geometry InText Questions 1
Here, to draw a parallelogram BATS, BA = 5 cm, AT = 6 cm and AS = 6.5 cm are given. In parallelogram length of opposite sides are equal. So ST = AB = 5 cm and SB = AT = 6 cm. First we can draw A ASB where SB = 6 cm, AB = 5 cm and AS = 6.5 cm. Then draw ΔATS where AT = 6 cm, ST = 5 cm.
Thus, we can draw a parallelogram from given measurements.

Question (iii).
Can you draw a rhombus ZEAL where ZE = 3.5 cm, diagonal EL = 5 cm ? Why?
Solution:
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 4 Practical Geometry InText Questions 2
Here, to draw a rhombus ZEAL, ZE = 3.5 cm and EL = 5 cm are given. All of rhombus are equal to each other. So ZE = EA = AL = LZ = 3.5 cm. Moreover, diagonal EL = 5 cm Is given.
So We know all necessary measurements to draw rhombus. Yes, we can draw a rhombus ZEAL.

Question (iv).
A student attempted to draw a quadrilateral PLAY where PL = 3 cm, LA = 4 cm, AY = 4.5 cm, PY = 2 cm and LY = 6 cm, but could not draw it. What is the reason?
[Hint: Discuss it using a rough sketch. ]
Solution :
Here, to draw a quadrilateral PLAY,
PL = 3 cm, LA = 4 cm, AY = 4.5 cm, PY = 2 cm and LY = 6 cm are given.
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 4 Practical Geometry InText Questions 3
Now, let us look at measurements of
ΔPLY. PL + PY = 3 cm + 2 cm = 5 cm while YL = 6 cm.
We know that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of triangle is always greater than the length of the third side.
So point P cannot be determined even after constructing ΔLAY. Thus, a student failed s due to this reason.

Think, Discuss and Write (Textbook Page No. 62)

Question 1.
In the above example, can we draw the quadrilateral by drawing ΔABD first and then find the fourth point C ?
Solution:
Since, the measurement of AB is not given, we cannot draw ΔABD, so question does not arise to find the foruth point C.
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 4 Practical Geometry InText Questions 4
Thus, we cannot draw the quadrilateral

Question 2.
Can you construct a quadrilateral PQRS with PQ = 3 cm, RS = 3 cm, PS = 7.5 cm, PR = 8 cm and SQ = 4 cm ? Justify your answer.
Solution:
No, the quadrilateral PQRS cannot be constructed as in ΔQSP, SQ + PQ ≯ SP

Question 1.
Can you construct the above quadrilateral MIST if we have 100° at M instead of 75° ?
Solution:
Yes. The quadrilateral MIST can be constructed with ∠M = 100° instead of 75°.
[Note : Only size of quadrilateral is changed.]

Question 2.
Can you construct the quadrilateral PLAN if PL = 6 cm, LA = 9.5 cm, ∠P = 75°, ∠L = 150° and ∠A = 140° ?
[Hint: Recall angle sum property.]
Solution:
Here, ∠P + ∠L + ∠A + ∠N
= 75° + 150° + 140° + ∠N
= 365° + ∠N
∴ Construction of quadrilateral PLAN is not possible as according to angle sum property. The sum of all the angles of a quadrilateral is 360°. Here, 365° + N > 360°.

Question 3.
In a parallelogram, the lengths of adjacent sides are known. Do we still need measures of the angles to construct as in the example above?
Solution :
In a parallelogram, the opposite sides are parallel and of equal length. Here, we know the lengths of adjacent sides, so measures of the angles are not needed.
If we know the length of a diagonal the quadrilateral can be drawn.

Question 1.
In the above example, we first drew BC. Instead, what could have been be the other starting points?
Solution :
Instead of drawing BC, we can start with \(\overline{\mathrm{AB}}\) or \(\overline{\mathrm{CD}}\).

Question 2.
We used some five measurements to draw quadrilaterals so far. Can there be different sets of five measurements (other than seen so far) to draw a quadrilateral ? The following problems may help you in answering the question.
(i) Quadrilateral ABCD with AB = 5 cm, BC = 5.5 cm, CD = 4 cm, AD = 6 cm and ∠B = 80°.
(ii) Quadrilateral PQRS with PQ = 4.5 cm, ∠P = 70°, ∠Q = 100°, ∠R = 80° and ∠S = 110°.
Construct a few more examples of your own to find sufficiency/insufficiency of the data for construction of a quadrilateral.
Solution:
(i) Here, four sides and one angle are given. So given data is sufficient to construct quadrilateral ABCD.
(ii) We cannot locate the points R and S with the help of given data. So given data is insufficient to construct quadrilateral PQRS.

Few examples of sufficient data to construct quadrilaterals :

  • Quadrilateral PQRS in which RS = 6 cm, QR = 5 cm, PQ = 5 cm, ∠Q = 135°, ∠R = 90°. (three sides and two angles)
  • Quadrilateral ABCD in which AB = 5 cm, BC = 4 cm, ∠B = 60°, ∠A = 90° and ∠C = 135°. (two sides and three angles)

Try these (Textbook Page No. 67)

Question 1.
How will you construct a rectangle PQRS if you know only the lengths PQ and QR?
Solution:
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 4 Practical Geometry InText Questions 5
Each angle of a rectangle is a right angle. Rectangle has opposite sides of equal lengths. Here, PQ is given, So PQ = RS.
ΔPQR can be drawn using PQ, QR and ∠Q = 90°.
ΔQRS can be drawn using QR, RS and ∠R = 90°.
Thus, the required rectangle PQRS can be constructed.

1. Following are the car parking charges near a railway station upto:
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 13 Direct and Inverse Proportions Ex 13.1 1
Check if the parking charges are in direct proportion to the parking time.
Solution:
Here, ratio of parking charges and parking time are as follow:

Parking time Parking charges Parking charge / Parking time
4 hours ₹ 60 \(\frac{60}{4}=\frac{15}{1}\)
8 hours ₹ 100 \(\frac{100}{8}=\frac{25}{2}\)
12 hours ₹ 140 \(\frac{140}{12}=\frac{35}{3}\)
24 hours ₹ 180 \(\frac{180}{24}=\frac{15}{2}\)

Here, \(\frac {15}{1}\) ≠ \(\frac {25}{2}\) ≠ \(\frac {35}{3}\) ≠ \(\frac {15}{2}\)

2. A mixture of paint is prepared by mixing 1 part of red pigments with 8 parts of base. In the following table, find the parts of base that need to be added:
Solution:

Parts of red pigment 1 4 7 12 20
Parts of base 8

If parts of red pigment are x1, x2, x3, x4 and x5 respectively, then parts of base are y1, y2, y3, y4 and y5 respectively. Here, it is clear that mixture preparation is in direct proportion.
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 13 Direct and Inverse Proportions Ex 13.1 2
Thus, the table is

Parts of red pigment 1 4 7 12 20
Parts of base 8 32 56 96 160

3. In Question 2 above, if 1 part of a red pigment requires 75 ml of base, how much red pigment should we mix with 1800 ml of base?
Solution:
See as per question 2 –
x1 = 1, y1 = 75, x2 = ? and yx2 = 1800
\(\frac{x_{1}}{y_{1}}=\frac{x_{2}}{y_{2}}\)
∴ \(\frac{1}{75}=\frac{x_{2}}{1800}\)
∴ x2 = \(\frac{1 \times 1800}{75}\)
∴ x2 = 24
Thus, 24 ml of red pigment should be mixed with 1800 ml of base.

4. A machine in a soft drink factory fills 840 bottles in six hours. How many bottles will it fill in five hours?
Solution:
Let the number of bottles filled by machine in 5 h be x.

Number of hours (x) 6 5
Number of bottles filled (y) 840 ?

Here, as the number of hours decreases, the number of bottles filled will also decrease.
∴ It is case of direct proportion.
Here, x1 = 6, y1 = 840, x2 = 5 and y2 = ?
\(\frac{x_{1}}{y_{1}}=\frac{x_{2}}{y_{2}}\)
∴ \(\frac{6}{840}=\frac{5}{y_{2}}\)
∴ y2 = \(\frac{5 \times 840}{6}\)
∴ y2 = 700
Thus, 700 bottles will be filled in 5 hours.

5. A photograph of a bacteria enlarged 50,000 times attains a length of 5 cm as shown in the diagram. What is the actual length of the bacteria? If the photograph is enlarged 20,000 times only, what would be its enlarged length?
Solution:

Enlargement in picture of bacteria Length (cm)
50,000 times enlarged (x1) 5 (y1)
1 (x2) ? (y2)

Here, length of bacteria increases as picture of bacteria enlarges.
∴ It is case of, direct proportion.
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 13 Direct and Inverse Proportions Ex 13.1 2.1
Hence, the actual length of bacteria is 10-4 cm.
Now, the photograph is enlarged 20,000 times.

Enlargement in picture of bacteria Length (cm)
50,000 times enlarged (x1) 5 (y1)
20,000 times enlarged (x1) ? (y2)

∴ \(\frac{50,000}{5}=\frac{20,000}{y_{2}}\)
∴ y2 = \(\frac{20,000 \times 5}{50000}\)
∴ y2 = 2
Thus, its enlarged length would be 2 cm.

6. In a model of a ship, the mast is 9 cm high, while the mast of the actual ship is 12 m high. If the length of the ship is 28 m, how long is the model ship?
Solution:

Actual ship Model ship
Length of the ship x 28 m ?
Height of mast y 12m 9 cm

This is a case of direct proportion.
x1 = 28, y1 = 12, x2 = ?, y2 = 9
\(\frac{x_{1}}{y_{1}}=\frac{x_{2}}{y_{2}}\)
∴ \(\frac{28}{12}=\frac{x_{2}}{9}\)
∴ x2 = \(\frac{28 \times 9}{12}\)
∴ x2 = 21
Thus, the length of model ship is 21 cm.

PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 13 Direct and Inverse Proportions Ex 13.1

Question (ii)
1.2kg of sugar?
Solution:

Weight of sugar (kg) x Number of sugar crystals y
x1 = 2 y1 = 9 × 106
x2 = 1.2 y2 = (?)

Here. x1 = 2, x1 = 9 × 106, x2 = 1.2, y2 = ?
\(\frac{x_{1}}{y_{1}}=\frac{x_{2}}{y_{2}}\)
∴ \(\frac{2}{9 \times 10^{6}}=\frac{1.2}{y_{2}}\)
∴ y2 = \(\frac{1.2 \times 9 \times 10^{6}}{2}\)
∴ y2 = 0.6 × 9 × 106
∴ y2 = 5.4 × 106
Thus, there are 5.4 × 106 crystals of sugar in 1.2 kg of sugar.

8. Rashmi has a road map with a scale of 1 cm representing 18 km. She drives on a road for 72 km. What would be her distance covered in the map?

x1 = 18 y1 = 1
x2 = 72 y2 = (?)

This is a case of direct proportional.
Here, x1 = 18 km, y1 = 1 cm, x2 = 72 km, y2 = ?
\(\frac{x_{1}}{y_{1}}=\frac{x_{2}}{y_{2}}\)
∴ \(\frac{18}{1}=\frac{72}{y_{2}}\)
∴ y2 = \(\frac{72 \times 1}{18}\)
∴ y2 = 4
Thus, the distance covered by her on the map is 4 cm.

x2 = 10 m 50 cm = 1050 cm y2 = (?)

This is a case of direct proportionality.
PSEB 8th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 13 Direct and Inverse Proportions Ex 13.1 4
Thus, the length of the shadow cast by another pole is 6 m.

Question (ii)
the height of a pole which casts a shadow 5 m long.
Solution:

Height of vertical pole x Length of shadow y
x1 = 560 cm y1 = 320 cm
x2 = (?) y2 = 5 m = 500 cm

x1 = 560, y1 = 320, x2 = ?, y2 = 500
\(\frac{x_{1}}{y_{1}}=\frac{x_{2}}{y_{2}}\)
∴ \(\frac{560}{320}=\frac{x_{2}}{500}\)
∴ x2 = \(\frac{560 \times 500}{320}\)
∴ x2 = 875 cm
∴ x2 = 8.75 cm
Thus, the height of the pole is 8,75 m.

x1= 14 y1 = 25
x2 = (?) y2 = 5 hours = 300

This is a case of direct proportion.
∴ Here, x1 = 14, y1 = 25, x2 = ?, y2 = 300
\(\frac{x_{1}}{y_{1}}=\frac{x_{2}}{y_{2}}\)
∴ \(\frac{14}{25}=\frac{x_{2}}{300}\)
∴ x2 = \(\frac{14 \times 300}{25}\)
∴ x2 = 168
Thus, loaded truck can travel 168 km in 5 h.

2. Principal = ₹ 1000, Rate = 8 % per annum. Fill in the following table and find which type of interest (simple or compound) changes in direct proportion with time period.

Time Period 1 year 2 years 3 years
Simple Interest (in ₹)
Compound Interest (in ₹)

Solution:
Simple interest : SI = \(\frac{P \times R \times T}{100}\)
For calculation:
P = ₹ 1000, R = 8 %, T = …………….

Time (T) → 1 year: T = 1 2 years : T = 2 3 years : T = 3
Simple interest SI = \(\frac{P \times R \times T}{100}\) ₹ \(\frac{1000 \times 8 \times 1}{100}\)
= ₹ 80
₹ \(\frac{1000 \times 8 \times 2}{100}\)
= ₹ 160
₹ \(\frac{1000 \times 8 \times 3}{100}\)
= ₹ 240
\(\frac{\text { SI }}{\text { T }}\) \(\frac {80}{1}\) = 80 \(\frac {160}{2}\) = 80 \(\frac {240}{3}\) = 80

Here, the ratio of simple interest with time period is same for every year.
Hence, simple interest changes in direct proportion with time period.
Compound interest:
For calculation:
P = ₹ 1000, R = 8 %, T = ……………

Time → 1 year : n = 1
A = P(1 + \(\frac {R}{100}\))n
CI = A – P
A = 1000(1 + \(\frac {8}{100}\))1
= 1000 × \(\frac {108}{100}\) = 1080
∴ CI = 1080 – 1000 = ₹ 80
\(\frac{\text { CI }}{\text { T }}\) \(\frac {80}{1}\)
Time → 2 years : n = 2
A = P(1 + \(\frac {R}{100}\))n
CI = A – P
A = 1000(1 + \(\frac {8}{100}\))2
= 1000 × \(\frac {108}{100}\) × \(\frac {108}{100}\) = ₹ 1166.40
∴ CI = ₹ 1166.40 – 1000 = ₹ 166.40
\(\frac{\text { CI }}{\text { T }}\) \(\frac {166.40}{2}\)
Time → 3 years : n = 3
A = P(1 + \(\frac {R}{100}\))n
CI = A – P
A = 1000(1 + \(\frac {8}{100}\))3
= 1000 × \(\frac {108}{100}\) × \(\frac {108}{100}\) × \(\frac {108}{100}\) = ₹ 1259.712
∴ CI = ₹ 1259.712 – ₹ 1000 = ₹ 259.712
\(\frac{\text { CI }}{\text { T }}\) \(\frac {259.712}{3}\)

Here, the ratio of CI and T is not same.
Thus, compound interest is not proportional with time period.

1. If we fix time period and the rate of interest, simple interest changes proportionally with principal. Would there be a similar relationship for compound interest? Why?
Solution:
Time period (T) and rate of interest (R) are fixed, then
Simple interest = \(\frac {PRT}{100}\) = P × Constant
So simple interest depends on principal. Simple interest changes proportionally with principal.
Now, compound interest = P(1 + \(\frac {R}{100}\))T – P
i.e., A – P
= P [(1 + \(\frac {R}{100}\)T – 1]
= P × Constant
So compound interest depends on principal.
If principal increases or decreases, then compound interest will also increases or decreases.
Thus, compound interest changes with principal.

∴ x1y1 = 50 × 5
∴ x1y1 = 250

x2 = 40 and y2 = 6
∴ x2y2 = 40 × 6
∴ x2y2 = 240

x3 = 30 and y3 = 7
∴ x3y3 = 30 × 7
∴ x3y3 = 210

x4 = 20 and y4 = 8
∴ x4y4 = 20 × 8
∴ x4y4 = 160
Now 250 ≠ 240 ≠ 210 ≠ 160
∴ x1y1 ≠ x2y2 ≠ x3y3 ≠ x4y4
∴ x and y are not in inverse proportion.

Question (ii)

X 100 200 300 400
y 60 30 20 15

Solution:
x1 = 100 and y1 = 60
∴ x1y1 = 100 × 60
∴ x1y1 = 6000

x2 = 200 and y2 = 30
∴ x2y2 = 200 × 30
∴ x2y2 = 6000

x3 = 300 and y3 = 20
∴ x3y3 = 300 × 20
∴ x3y3 = 6000

x4 = 400 and y4 = 15
∴ x4y4 = 400 × 15
∴ x4y4 = 6000
Now x1y1 = x2y2 = x3y3 = x4y4
∴ x and y are in inverse proportion.

Question (iii)

X 90 60 45 30 20 5
y 10 15 20 25 30 35

Solution:
x1 = 90 and y1 = 10
∴ x1y1 = 90 × 10
∴ x1y1 = 900

x2 = 60 and y2 = 15
∴ x2y2 = 60 × 15
∴ x2y2 = 900

x3 = 45 and y3 = 20
∴ x3y3 = 45 × 20
∴ x3y3 = 900

x4 = 30 and y4 = 25
∴ x4y4 = 30 × 25
∴ x4y4 = 750

x5 = 20 and y5 = 30
∴ x5y5 = 20 × 30
∴ x5y5 = 600

x6 = 30 and y6 = 35
∴ x6y6 = 5 × 35
∴ x6y6 = 175

Now x1y1 = x2y2 = x3y3 ≠ x4y4 ≠ x5y5 ≠ x6y6
∴ x and y are in inverse proportion.

Question (i)
12x + 36
Solution:
12x = 2 × 2 × 3 × x and
36 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3
Common factors = 2 × 2 × 3
∴ 12x + 36 = (2 × 2 × 3 × x) + (2 × 2 × 3 × 3)
= (2 × 2 × 3) (x + 3)
= 12 (x + 3)

Question (ii)
22y – 33z
Solution:
22y = 2 × 11 × y and 33z = 3 × 11 × z
Common factor =11
∴ 22y – 33z = (2 × 11 × y) – (3 × 11 × z)
= (11) × (2 × y – 3 × z)
= 11 (2y – 3z)

Question (iii)
14pq + 35pqr
Solution:
14pq = 2 × 7 × p × q and
35pqr = 7 × 5 × p × q × r
Common factor = 7pq
∴ 14pq + 35pqr = (2 × 7 × p × q) + (7 × 5 × p × q × r)
= 7 × p × q (2 + 5 × r)
= 7pq (2 + 5r)

63a2b4c6 by 7a2b2c3
Solution:
= \(\frac{63 a^{2} b^{4} c^{6}}{7 a^{2} b^{2} c^{3}}\)
= \(\frac{3 \times 3 \times 7 \times a^{2} \times b^{4} \times c^{6}}{7 \times a^{2} \times b^{2} \times c^{3}}\)
= 3 × 3 × \(\frac{a^{2}}{a^{2}} \times \frac{b^{4}}{b^{2}} \times \frac{c^{6}}{c^{3}}\)
= 9 × a2-2 × b4-2 × c6-3
= 9 × a0 × b2 × c3
= 9 × 1 × b2 × c3
= 9b2c3
∴ 63a2b4c6 ÷ 7a2b2c3
= 9b2c3
