A) 60°
B) 55°
C) 50°
D) 65°

View Answer
B) 55°

Explanation:△ODC ∼ △OBA, so ∠DOC = ∠BOC = 125° (but in triangle ODC, angle should be < 90°, so it must be the matching corresponding angle). Since ∠BOC = 125°, ∠DOC is corresponding to ∠BOA = 180° – 125° = 55°
→ 55°

49) If M\left(\frac{p}{3}, 4\right) is the midpoint of the line segment joining A(-6, 5) and B(-4, 3), then p = ?

A) -10
B) -8
C) -9
D) -15

View Answer
D) -15

Explanation:Midpoint of A(-6, 5) and B(-4, 3):
Midpoint = \left( \frac{-6 + (-4)}{2}, \frac{5 + 3}{2} \right) = (-5, 4) \Rightarrow \frac{p}{3} = -5 \Rightarrow p = -15
→ -15

50) The distance between the points (2, 3) and (4, 1) is

A) 2√2
B) 2
C) √2
D) 2√3

View Answer
A) 2√2

Explanation:Distance = \sqrt{(4-2)^2 + (1-3)^2} = \sqrt{4 + 4} = \sqrt{8} = 2\sqrt{2}
→ 2√2

51) The coordinates of the point P(x, y) which divides the line segment joining the points A(x_1, y_1) and B(x_2, y_2) internally in the ratio m_1 : m_2 are

A) \left( \frac{m_1 x_1 + m_2 x_2}{m_1 + m_2}, \frac{m_1 y_1 + m_2 y_2}{m_1 + m_2} \right)
B) \left( \frac{m_1 x_2 + m_2 x_1}{m_1 + m_2}, \frac{m_1 y_2 + m_2 y_1}{m_1 + m_2} \right)
C) \left( \frac{m_1 x_2 - m_2 x_1}{m_1 + m_2}, \frac{m_1 y_2 - m_2 y_1}{m_1 + m_2} \right)
D) \left( \frac{m_1 x_2 - m_2 x_1}{m_1 - m_2}, \frac{m_1 y_2 - m_2 y_1}{m_1 - m_2} \right)

View Answer
A) \left( \frac{m_1 x_1 + m_2 x_2}{m_1 + m_2}, \frac{m_1 y_1 + m_2 y_2}{m_1 + m_2} \right)

Explanation:Internal division formula:
\left( \frac{m_1 x_2 + m_2 x_1}{m_1 + m_2}, \frac{m_1 y_2 + m_2 y_1}{m_1 + m_2} \right)
