Example 5: Given exponential equation is 4 × 3x+1 – 9x = 27. (i) Solve the equation. (ii) Prove that the value of x obtained by solving the given equation also satisfy the equation 7x + 343 × 7 -x = 56. Solution: Here, 4 × 3x+1 – 9x = 27 or, 4 × 3x × 31 – (3x ) 2 = 27 or, 12 × 3x – (3x ) 2 = 27 … (A) (i) Let 3x = a, then equation (A) becomes 12a – a2 = 27 Now, 12a – a2 = 27 or, a2 – 12 a + 27 = 0 or, a2 – (9 + 3) a + 27 = 0 or, a2 – 9a – 3a + 27 = 0 or, a (a – 9) – 3 (a – 9) = 0 or, (a – 9) (a – 3) = 0 Either a – 9= 0 i.e. a = 9 or, 3x = 32 ∴x = 2 or, a – 3 = 0 i.e. a = 3 or, 3x = 31 ∴x = 1 Hence, x = 1, 2 (ii) Also, putting x = 1 in the equation 7x + 343 × 7 -x = 56,we get 71 + 343 × 7 – 1 = 7+ 343 7 = 56 which is true. Again, putting x = 2 in the equation 7x + 343 × 7 -x = 56, we get 72 + 343 × 7 – 2 = 72 + 343 72 = 56 which is true. Hence, the value of x obtained by solving the equation 4 × 3x+1 – 9x = 27 also satisfy the equation 7x + 343 × 7 -x = 56. Checking: When x = 2, then 52 + 1 52 = 25 1 25 or, 25 + 1 25 = 626 25 or, 626 25 = 626 25 which is true. When x = – 2, then 5-2 + 1 5–2 = 25 1 25 or, 1 25 + 52 = 626 25 or, 1 25 + 25=626 25 or, 626 25 = 626 25 which is true.

The curtain of size 3 m by 2x m is used in the window. Given that the area of the curtain is 2 square meters more than the area of window. (i) Make an exponential equation (ii) Solve the equation for x. (iii) Find the possible area of the window. (iv) Find the possible area of the curtain. Solution: Here, the area of a window = 4x m2 And, the area of a curtain =3 × 2x m2 (i) According to question, area of curtain = area of window + 2 m2 or, 3 × 2x = 4x + 2 or, 3 × 2x = (2x ) 2 + 2 (ii) Let 2x = a, then the above equation reduces to 3a = a2 + 2 or, a2 – 3a + 2 = 0 or, a2 – (2 + 1) a + 2 = 0 or, a2 – 2a – a + 2 = 0 or, a (a – 2) – 1 (a – 2) = 0 or, (a – 2) (a – 1) = 0 Either a – 2 = 0 i.e. a = 2 or, 2x = 21 ∴x = 1 or, a – 1 = 0 i.e. a = 1 or, 2x = 20 ∴x = 0 (iii) When x = 1, the area of the window = 4x m2 = 41 m2 = 4 m2 When x = 0, the area of the window = 4x m2 = 40 m2 = 1 m2 (iv) When x = 1, the area of the curtain = 3 × 21 m2 = 6 m2 When x = 0, the area of the curtain = 3 × 20 m2 = 3 m2 . Hence, the possible area of the window is 1 m2 or 4 m2 and the possible area of the curtain is 6 m2 or 3 m2 .

The diagonal of a square (or a rectangle or a rhombus) bisects it. 2. The congruent figures (triangles) are equal in area. Theorem (Theoretical proof only) Parallelograms on the same base and between the same parallels are equal in area. Activity 1 Test I: Finding the area of parallelograms on the same base with different altitudes. Steps: (i) Draw a parallelogram ABCD on a graph paper. (ii) Count the number of complete squares (C), the number of squares having more than half (M) of their parts and the number of squares having half (H) of their parts enclosed by the figure. Ignore the squares which are less than half parts. Find the area of ABCD by adding C + M + H. Here, the area of ABCD is 12 sq. units. (iii) Draw another parallelogram ABEF on the same base but the altitude is different than the altitude of parallelogram ABCD. Similarly, find its area. Here, the area of ABEF is 15 sq. units. Test II: Finding the area of parallelograms on the different bases but lying between same parallel lines. Steps: (i) Draw a parallelogram ABCD on a graph paper and find its area. Here, the area of ABCD is 12 sq. units. (ii) Draw another parallelogram PQRS on the different base but lying with parallelogram ABCD between the same parallel lines. Find area of parallelogram PQRS. Here, the area of PQRS is 16 sq. units. Test III: Finding the area of parallelograms on the same base and between same parallel lines.

In the figure, O is the centre of a circle. (i) Circumference The perimeter of a circle is called its circumference. It is the total length of the curved line of the circle. (ii) Radius It is the line segment that joins the centre of a circle and any point on its circumference. In the figure, OA is the radius. The plural form of radius is radii. All the radii of a circle are equal, i.e., OA = OB = OC = OD = ... A D B C O Q R P O M N S P1 P2 P4 P3 O B A O C D
Approved by Curriculum Development Centre, Sanothimi, Bhaktapur 241 Vedanta Excel in Mathematics - Book 10 Geometry - Circle (iii) Diameter A line segment that passes through the centre of a circle and joins any two points on its circumference is called the diameter of the circle. In the figure PQ, RS, etc., are the diameters. The length of a diameter is two times radius. So, PQ = 2OQ or 2OP and RS = 2OR or 2OS. A diameter divides a circle into two halves. (iv) Semi-circle A diameter divides a circle into two halves and each half is called the semi-circle. In the figure, PXQ and PYQ are the semi-circles. (v) Arc A part of the circumference of a circle is called an arc. It is denoted by a symbol ‘ ‘. In the figure, PQR is the minor and PSR is major arcs of the circle. A minor arc is less than half of the circumference and a major arc is greater than half of the circumference. (vi) Chord The line segment that joins any two points on the circumference of a circle is called the chord of the circle. In the figure, PQ and RS are any two chords of the circle. Diameter is the longest chord of a circle. (vii) Segment The region enclosed by a chord and corresponding arc is called the segment of a circle. In the figure, the shaded region is the minor segment and non-shaded region is the major segment of the circle. A minor segment is less than half of a circle whereas the major segment is greater than half of the circle. The minor and the major segments of a circle are known as the alternate segments to each other. (viii) Sector The region enclosed between any two radii and the corresponding arc of a circle is called a sector of the circle. In the figure, OPQ is a sector of a circle. (ix) Concentric circles Two or more circles are said to be concentric circles if they have the same centre but different radii. In the figure, circles PQR, XYZ, and ABC are three concentric circles. P Q R S O P Q X Y O P R Q S O P Q R S O P Q O P Q O Q P X A O C Z R B Y

In the figure, two circles are intersecting each other at P and Q. PQ is the common chord of these two intersecting circles. xi) Concylic points and cyclic quadrilateral The points lying on the circumference of a circle are called concylic points. In the given circle, A, B, C, D, E and F are concyclic points. When all the vertices of a quadrilateral lie on the circumference of a circle, the quadrilateral is called cyclic quadrilateral. In other words, the quadrilateral formed by joining any four concylic points in order is called cyclic quadrilateral. In the given circle; ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral. xii) Central angle An angle at the centre of a circle formed by any two radii is called central angle. In the given figure, ∠AOB is a central angle. xiii) Inscribed angle An angle at the circumference of a circle formed by any two chords is called inscribed angle. In the given figure, ∠ACB is an inscribed angle. 13.3 Theorems related to arcs and the angles subtended by them In the figure alongside, O is the centre of a circle, OP and OQ are the radii, and PQ is the arc of the circle. Here, PQ subtends an ∠POQ at O. So, ∠POQ is the angle at the centre of the circle. Of course, ∠POQ is standing on PQ. So, we may call the opposite arc of ∠POQ is PQ. Furthermore, if we consider the radius OP starts rotating from the point P to the point Q, it describes an arc PQ and ∠POQ. Thus, the degree measurements of PQ and ∠POQ are exactly the same. ∴ ∠POQ PQ Thus, the degree measurement of the angle at the centre of a circle is equal to the degree measurement of its opposite arc.

It is also called inscribed angle. Here, the opposite arc of ∠PAQ is PQ. Now, let's establish the relation between an inscribed angle and its opposite arc. In ∆OAP, ∠OAP = ∠OPA [∴ OA = OP] ∴ 2∠OAP = 180° – ∠AOP [From sum of the angles of ∆OAP] In ∆OAQ, ∠OAQ = ∠OQA [OA = OQ] ∴ 2∠OAQ = 180° – ∠AOQ [From sum of the angles of ∆OAQ] Now, 2∠OAP + 2∠OAQ = 180° – ∠AOP + 180° – ∠AOQ or, 2∠PAQ = 360° – (∠AOP + ∠AOQ) or, 2∠PAQ = 360° – Ref. ∠POQ or, 2∠PAQ circumference – PAQ [Circumference 360° and PAQ Ref. ∠POQ] or, 2∠PAQ PQ ∴ ∠PAQ 1 2 PQ. Thus, the degree measurement of the angle at the circumference of a circle is half of the degree measurement of its opposite arc.
