Question-1 Construct an angle of 90$90^{\circ}$ at the initial point of a given ray and justify the construction.

Solution:

Given a ray OA.

Required: To construct an angle of 90$90^{\circ}$ at 0 and justify the construction.

Steps of Construction:

1. Taking 0 as centre and some radius, draw an arc of a circle, which intersects OA, say at a point B.
2. Taking B as centre and with the same radius as before, draw an arc intersecting the previously drawn arc, say at a point C.

1. Taking C as centre and with the same radius as before, draw an arc intersecting the arc drawn in step 1, say at D.
2. Draw the ray OE passing through C. Then $\angle$EOA = 60$60^{\circ}$.

Draw the ray OF passing through D. Then $\angle$FOE =60$60^{\circ}$.

1. Next, taking C and D as centres and with the radius more than CD, draw arcs to intersect each other, say at G.
2. Draw the ray 0G. This ray OG is the bisector of the angle $\angle$FOE, i.e., $\angle$ FOG = $\angle$EOG = ; $\angle$FOE = (60$60^{\circ}$) = 30$30^{\circ}$.

Thus, $\angle$GOA = $\angle$GOE + $\angle$EOA = 30$30^{\circ}$ +60$60^{\circ}$ = 90$90^{\circ}$.

Justification:

(i)            Join BC.

Then, OC = OB = BC (By construction)

∴   Δ$\Delta$COB is an equilateral triangle.

∴   $\angle$COB =60$60^{\circ}$.

∴   $\angle$ EOA = 60$60^{\circ}$.

(ii)           Join CD.

Then, OD = OC = CD (By construction) Δ$\Delta$DOC is an equilateral triangle.

∴     $\angle$DOC = 60$60^{\circ}$.

∴     $\angle$ FOE = 60$60^{\circ}$.          .

(iii)          Join CG and DG.

In Δ$\Delta$ODG and Δ$\Delta$OCG,

OD = OC I Radii of the same arc

DG = CG I Arcs of equal radii

OG = OG l Common ∴ Δ$\Delta$ODG$\cong$ Δ$\Delta$ OCG   ISSS Rule

$\angle$DOG =$\angle$COG ICPCT

∴     $\angle$FOG = $\angle$EOG =12$\frac{1}{2}$ $\angle$FOE = 12$\frac{1}{2}$ (60$60^{\circ}$) = 30$30^{\circ}$

Thus, $\angle$GOA = $\angle$GOE + $\angle$EOA = 30$30^{\circ}$ + 60$60^{\circ}$ = 90$90^{\circ}$.

Question-2

Construct an angle of 45$45^{\circ}$  at the initial point of a given ray and justify the construction.

Solution: Given: A ray OA. Required: To construct an angle of 45$45^{\circ}$   at 0 and justify the construction. Steps of Construction:

1. Taking 0 as centre and some radius, draw an arc of a circle, which intersects OA, say at a point B.
2. Taking B as centre and with the same radius as before, draw an arc intersecting the previously drawn arc, say at a point C.
3. Taking C as centre and with the same radius as before, draw an arc intersecting the arc drawn in step 1, say at D.

1. Draw the ray OE passing through C. Then $\angle$EOA = 60$60^{\circ}$ .
2. Draw the ray OF passing through D. Then $\angle$ FOE = 60$60^{\circ}$ .
3. Next, taking C and D as centres and with radius more than 1CD, draw arcs to intersect each other, say at G.
4. Draw the ray OG. This ray OG is the bisector of the angle FOE, i.e., $\angle$FOG = $\angle$EOG = 12$\frac{1}{2}$ $\angle$FOE = 12$\frac{1}{2}$ (60$60^{\circ}$ ) = 30$30^{\circ}$ .

Thus, $\angle$GOA = $\angle$GOE + $\angle$ EOA = 30$30^{\circ}$ + 60$60^{\circ}$ = 90$90^{\circ}$.

1. Now, taking 0 as centre and any radius, draw an arc to intersect the rays OA and OG, say at H and I respectively.
2. Next, taking H and I as centres and with the radius more than 12$\frac{1}{2}$HI, draw arcs to intersect each other, say at J.
3. Draw the ray OJ. This ray OJ is the required bisector of the angle GOA. Thus, $\angle$GOJ = $\angle$AOJ = 12$\frac{1}{2}$  $\angle$GOA =  12$\frac{1}{2}$ (90$90^{\circ}$) = 45$45^{\circ}$.

Justification:

(i)Join BC.

Then, OC = OB = BC triangle. (By construction)

∴   $\angle$COB is an equilateral triangle.

∴   $\angle$COB = 60$60^{\circ}$.

∴   $\angle$EOA = 60$60^{\circ}$.

(ii)Join CD.

Then, OD = OC = CD (By construction)

D DOC is an equilateral triangle.

$\angle$DOC = 60$60^{\circ}$.

$\angle$ FOE = 60$60^{\circ}$.

(iii)Join CG and DG.

In Δ$\Delta$ODG and Δ$\Delta$OCG,

OD = OC                              I Radii of the same arc

DG = CG                              I Arcs of equal radii

OG = OG                              I Common

Δ$\Delta$ ODG = Δ$\Delta$OCG   I SSS

Rule ∴ $\angle$ DOG =  $\angle$COG           I CPCT

$\angle$FOG = $\angle$ EOG = 12$\frac{1}{2}$ $\angle$FOE = 12$\frac{1}{2}$ (60$60^{\circ}$) = 30$30^{\circ}$

Thus, $\angle$GOA =  $\angle$GOE +  $\angle$EOA = 30$30^{\circ}$ + 60$60^{\circ}$ = 90$90^{\circ}$.

• Join HJ and IJ.

In Δ$\Delta$OIJ and Δ$\Delta$OHJ,

01 = OH           I Radii of the same arc

IJ = HJ              I Arcs of equal radii

OJ = OJ             | Common ∴ Δ$\Delta$OIJ = Δ$\Delta$ OHJ

Rule ∴   $\angle$I0J = $\angle$ HOJ   (90$90^{\circ}$) = 45$45^{\circ}$     I CPCT

$\angle$AOJ = ]  $\angle$GOJ = 12$\frac{1}{2}$  $\angle$GOA = 12$\frac{1}{2}$

In countries like USA and Canada, temperature is measured in Fahrenheit, Whereas in countries like India. It is measured in Celsius. Here is a linear equation that converts Fahrenheit to Celsius

F=(95)C+32$F=\left ( \frac{9}{5} \right )C+32$

Is there a temperature which is numerically the same in both Fahrenheit and Celsius? If yes, find it?

Solution:-

Let the temperature be x numerically .Then,

F=(95)C+32$F=\left ( \frac{9}{5} \right )C+32$

$\Rightarrow$  x=(95)x+32$x=\left ( \frac{9}{5} \right )x+32$

$\Rightarrow$ (95)xx=32$\left ( \frac{9}{5} \right )x-x=-32$

$\Rightarrow$   x=32X54$x=-\frac{32X5}{4}$

$\Rightarrow$    (45)x=32$\left ( \frac{4}{5} \right )x=-32$

$\Rightarrow$    x=32X54$x=\frac{-32X5}{4}$

$\Rightarrow$   x=-40

∴ Numerical value of required temperature=-40
