Class 09 - Mathematics
Term-2 Sample paper - 01

Solution

Section A
1. We have,
f(x) = 2x3 - 13x2 + 17x + 12
f (-3) = 2 (-3)3 - 13 (-3)2 + 17 (-3) + 12
f(-3) = 2 (-27) - 13 9 +17 (-3) + 12
= -54 - 117 - 51 + 12
= -222+12
= -210
2. Here, ABCD is square.
Here AC and BD are diagonals.
We know that the angles of a square are bisected by the diagonals.
OBX = 45o ... [ ​ABC = 90o and BD bisects ​ABC​
And ​BOX = COD = 80o … Vertically opposite angles
In BOX, we have:
AXO = OBX + ​ BOX … [Exterior angle theorem]
AXO = 45o + 80o = 125o
​x = 125°.

3. 8(a + 1)2 + 2(a + 1)(b + 2) - 15(b + 2)2
Putting a + 1 = x and b + 2 = y, we have
8x2 + 2xy - 15y2
Now, 8x2 + 2xy - 15y2
= 8x2 + 12xy - 10xy - 15y2
= (8x2 + 12xy) - (10xy + 15y2)
= 4x(2x + 3y) - 5y(2x + 3y)
= (2x + 3y) (4x - 5y)
Now ,substituting x= a+1 and y=b+2 ,we get
= {2(a + 1) + 3(b + 2)}{4(a + 1) - 5(b + 2)}
= {2a+3b+2+6}{4a-5b+4-10}
= (2a + 3b + 8)(4a - 5b - 6)
4. We have,
2(x + y)2 - 9(x + y) - 5
put x+y=a
= 2a2 - 9a - 5
= (2a2 - 10a + a - 5)
= (2a2 - 10a) + (a - 5)

= 2a (a - 5) + (a - 5)
= (2a + 1)(a-5)
Now substitute a=x+y we get
= {2(x + y) + 1}(x+y-5) = (2x + 2y + 1)(x+y-5)
5. Since Hameed is getting the five outer faces of the tank covered with tiles, he would need to know the
surface area of the tank, to decide on the number of tiles required.
Edge of the cubic tank, a = 1.5m = 150 cm
So, surface area of the tank = 5 150 150 cm2.
Area of each square title = = = 180
Cost of 1 dozen tiles, i.e., cost of 12 tiles = Rs. 360
Therefore, cost of one tile = Rs = Rs. 30
So the cost of 180 tiles = 180 Rs.30 = Rs. 5400
6. 8a3 + b3 + 12a2b + 6ab2
= (2a)3 + (b)3 + 3(2a)(b)(2a + b)
= (2a+ b)3
(Using Identity (a + b)3= a3+ b3+ 3ab (a + b))
= (2a + b)(2a + b)(2a + b)

OR

Solving the equation g(x) = 0, we get

3 - 6x = 0, which gives us
So, is a zero of the polynomial 3 - 6x.
Section B
7. Given: Two circles intersect each other at points A and B. AP and AQ be their respective diameters.
To prove: Point B lies on the third side PQ.
Construction: Join A and B.
Proof: AP is a diameter.
1 = 90°
[Angle in semicircle]
Also AQ is a diameter.
2 = 90°
[Angle in semicircle]
1 + 2 = 90° + 90°
PBQ = 180°
PBQ is a line.
Thus point B. i.e. point of intersection of these circles lies on the third side i.e., on PQ.

As D and E are mid-points of sides AB and BC of the triangle ABC (Mid-points of two sides of a triangle is
parallel to the third side),
DE || AC
Similarly, DF || BC and EF || AB
Therefore ADEF, BDFE and DFCE are all parallelograms.
Now DE is a diagonal of the parallelogram BDFE,
therefore,
Similarly
and
So, all the four triangles are congruent.
9. Steps of construction

i. Draw a line segment AB = 8cm

ii. Taking A as a centre draw arcs of radius more on both side of AB.
iii. Taking B as a centre draw arcs of same radius on both sides of AB which intersect previous arcs at
point C and D.
iv. Join CD which intersect AB at point O
v. OA = OB = 4cm
10. Vcone = Vsphere

2H = 4 (43 - 23)
4

16 H = 4 (64 - 8)
H = = 14 cm
Slant height =
l = = 14.56 cm

OR

Here we have ,l = 15 m, b = 12 m and h = 4.5 m.

Therefore Volume of the cuboid = (l b h) cubic units.
= (15 12 4.5) m3 = 810m3.
Total surface area of the cuboid
= 2(lb + bh + Ih) sq units.

= 2(15 12 +12 4.5 +15 4.5) m2 = 603 m2.

Lateral surface area of the cuboid
= [2(1 + b) h] sq units.
= [2(15 +12) 4.5] m2 = 243m2.

Section C
11.
We need to consider the factors of 2, which are
Let us substitute 1 in the polynomial to get

Thus, according to factor theorem, we can conclude that is a factor of the polynomial

Let us divide the polynomial by ,to get

Therefore, we can conclude that on factorizing the polynomial ,we get

12. GIVEN

Then, ABC is a required triangle.

OR

1. Draw a ray OX and cut off a line segment QR = 3 cm.

2. At Q, construct .
3. From QY, cut off QS = 2 cm.
4. Join RS.
5. Draw perpendicular bisector of RS to Meet QY at P.
6. Join PR. Then PQR is the required triangle.
Justification: Base QR and PQR are drawn as given.
Since, the point P lies on the perpendicular bisector of SR.
PS = PR
Now, QS = PQ - PS
= PQ - PR
Thus, our construction is justified.
13. Diameter of a wooden sphere = 21 cm.
therefore Radius of wooden sphere (R) cm
And Radius of the cylinder (r) = 1.5 cm
The surface area of silver-painted part = Surface area of sphere - Upper part of cylinder for support
=
=

= 1378.928 cm2
Surface area of such type of 8 spherical part = 8 1378.928
= 11031.424 cm2
Cost of silver paint over 1 cm2 = Rs. 0.25
Cost of silver paint over 11031.928 cm2 = 0.25 11031.928
= Rs. 2757.85
Now, curved surface area of a cylindrical support =
=

= 66 cm2
Curved surface area of 8 such cylindrical supports =66 8 = 528 cm2
Cost of black paint over 1cm2 of cylindrical support = Rs. 0.50
Cost of black paint over 528cm2 of cylindrical support = -0.50 528
= Rs. 26.40
Total cost of paint required = Rs. 2757.85 + Rs. 26.4
= Rs. 2784.25
14. Total number of outcomes = 100
i. Probability of 2 heads coming up = = = 0.36
ii. Probability of 3 heads coming up = = = 0.12
iii. Probability of at least one head coming up = = = = 0.86
iv. Probability of getting more heads than tails = = = = 0.48
