Solution:
Here, the series are: 1+3+5+7+…….. +125…… (1)
169+171+173+175+……….+209…… (2)
Now,
L.H.S. = 1+3+5+7+…….+125
We know, n-th term = a+(n-1)d
Here, a = 1, d = 3-1 = 5-3 = 2 and n-th term = 125
Now,
1+(n-1)×2= 125 Or, 2(n-1) = 125-1 = 124
Or, n-1 = 62 [Dividing both sides by 2] Or, n = 62+1  n = 63
We know, sum of n-th term = {2a+(n-1)d}
 Sum of 63rd = {2×1+(63-1)×2} = ×2 (1+62) = 63×63 = 3969
R.H.S. = 169+171+173+175+…….+209
Here, a = 169, d = 171-169 = 2 and n-th term = 209
Now,
a+(n-1)d = n-th term
Or, 169+(n-1)2= 209
Or, 2(n-1) = 209-169 = 40
Or, n-1 = 20 [Dividing both sides by 2] Or, n = 20 +1  n = 21
 Sum of 21 = {2×169+(21-1)×2} = ×2 (169+20) = 21×189 = 3969

 L.H.S. = R.H.S. (Proved)

Solution:
Let, husband got Tk. x and
Alternative Method:
wife got Tk. (43520-x)
Let, husband worked for x days and wife
Husband got Tk. 560 in 1 day
worked for (72-x) days
 Husband got Tk. 1 in day According to the question,
 Husband got Tk. x in days 560x+ 640(72-x) = 43520
Or, 560x + 46080-640x = 43520
Wife got Tk. (43520-x) in days Or, -80x = 43520-46080
According to the question, Or, -80x = -2560  x = 32

Or, (x+12) (x-9) = 0
 x = 9 [Neglecting the negative value]
 The speed was 9 km/h. (Ans.)

Arts Faculty, DU
Alternative Method:
Given that, distance = 108 km.
Let, the initial speed of the cyclist be s km/h and time be taken ‘t’ hours.
We know,
Speed × Time = Distance
s × t = 108  st = 108 ……(i)
2nd case,
Speed of the cyclist = (s + 3) and time taken = (t – 3)
(s + 3)(t - 3) = 108 [Speed × Time = Distance]
Or, st - 3s + 3t -9 = 108 Or, 108 + 3t -3s -9 = 108 [ st = 108]
Or, 3(t - s) = 108 + 9 - 108 Or, 3(t-s) = 9
Or, t - s = 3 [Dividing both sides by 3] t=s+3
Putting the value of ‘t’ equation (i)
s(s + 3) = 108 Or, s² + 3s - 108 = 0
Or, s² + 12s - 9s - 108 = 0 Or, s(s + 12) - 9(s + 12) = 0 Or, (s + 12)(s - 9) = 0
 s = 9 [Neglecting the negative value]

So, area = xy sq. m.
1st condition,
xy = 7200 …. (i)
2nd condition,
x(y-3) = 7200 – 576 Or, xy – 3x = 6624 Or, 7200 -3x = 6624 [equation (i)]
Or, 7200-6624 = 3x Or, 576 = 3x ∴ x = 192
192y = 7200 ∴ y = 37.5

Number of students studying Physics, n(P) = 35
Number of students studying Chemistry, n(C) = 30
Number of students studying all three subjects n(M P C) = 15
We know,
n(M P C) = n(M)+ n(P) + n(C) – {n(M P)+ n(P C) + n(C M)}+ n(M P C)
Or, 70 = 40 + 35 + 30 – {n(M P)+ n(P C) + n(C M)}+15
Or, n(M P)+ n(P C) + n(C M) = 120-70

Solution:
In the following ways a 5 members committee from 6 male students and 5 female students
can be formed.
4 female students and 1 male student = 5C4× 6C1 = 5×6 = 30
3 female students and 2 male students = 5C3× 6C2 = 10×15 = 150
2 female students and 3 male students = 5C2 × 6C3 = 10× 20 = 200
1 female student and 4 male students = 5C1 × 6C4 = 5×15 = 75
Total = 30+ 150+ 200+ 75 = 455 ways. (Ans.)
4. Someone plans to invest x taka in the bond of 'M' Company, which pays 10%
interest and y taka in 'N' Company bonds, which pay 9% interest. He will invest 9000
taka and require that he receives 850 taka as interest. How much should he invest in
each company? [Sonali SO 18]
Solution:
Given that, he invested in M company = Tk. x
So, he invested in N company Tk. y = Tk. (9000 – x)
1st condition, x+y = 9000
2nd condition,
10% of x + 9% of (9000-x) = 850
( )
Or, + = 850
Or, 10x + 81000 -9x = 85000 [Multiplying both sides by 100]
 x = 85000-81000 = 4000

6. The length of a tangent drawn from a point A is 12 cm which is 13 cm away from

the center of the circle. Find the diameter of the circle. [Sonali SO 18]
Solution:
Given that, PT = 12 cm and PO = 13 cm
Here, OT ⊥ PT
By using Pythagoras theorem in ΔOPT,
OP2 = OT2 + PT2
Or, (13)2 = OT2 + (12)2
Or, 169 = OT2 + 144
Or, OT2 = 169-144 = 25 ∴ OT = 5 cm
∴ The diameter of the circle = (2×5) cm = 10 cm (Ans.)
7. A circle is inscribed inside a right angled triangle with equal sides. What is the
area of the circle if the length of one side of the right angled triangle is 4cm? [Sonali SO

Solution:
Given that, AB = BC = 4 cm
By using Pythagoras theorem in ΔABC,
AC2 = BC2 + AB2
Or, AC2 = 42 + 42 Or, AC2 = 16 + 16
Or, AC2 = 32 ∴ AC = 4√2 cm
∴ Area of triangle = ×AB×BC = ×4×4 = 8 sq. cm
∴ Perimeter = 4+ 4 + 4√2 = 8+4√2 cm

Solution:
Let, the speed of cyclist be x km/h.
( )
- =3 [Time = ] Or, =3 Or, =3
( )
Or, 3(x2+3x) = 324 [Cross multiplication]
Or, x2+3x = 108 [Dividing both sides by 3] Or, x2+3x – 108 = 0
Or, x2+12x – 9x – 108 = 0 Or, x(x+12) -9(x+12) = 0 Or, (x+12) (x-9) = 0
Alternative Method:
Given that, distance = 108 km.
Let, the initial speed of the cyclist be s km/h and time be taken ‘t’ hours.
We know,
Speed × Time = Distance
s × t = 108  st = 108 ……(i)
2nd case,
Speed of the cyclist = (s + 3) and time taken = (t – 3)

Arts Faculty, DU
(s + 3)(t - 3) = 108 [Speed × Time = Distance]
Or, st - 3s + 3t -9 = 108 Or, 108 + 3t -3s -9 = 108 [ st = 108]
Or, 3(t - s) = 108 + 9 - 108 Or, 3(t-s) = 9
Or, t - s = 3 [Dividing both sides by 3] t=s+3
Putting the value of ‘t’ equation (i)
s(s + 3) = 108 Or, s² + 3s - 108 = 0
Or, s² + 12s - 9s - 108 = 0 Or, s(s + 12) - 9(s + 12) = 0 Or, (s + 12)(s - 9) = 0
