1 Assertion (A) : 5, 10, and 15 are three consecutive terms of an AP. 1
Reason (R): If a, b, c are three consecutive terms of an AP, then
2b = a + c
(a) Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
(b) Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
(c) (A) is true but (R) is false
(d) (A) is false but (R) is true

2. Assertion (A): The first term of an AP is 5, the last term is 45 and its sum 1
is 400. Then the number of terms of the AP = 12.
Reason (R): Sum of first n even natural numbers is n(n + 1).
(a) Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
(b) Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
(c) (A) is true but (R) is false
(d) (A) is false but (R) is true

3 Assertion (A): The line segment joining the midpoints of any two sides 1
of a triangle is parallel to the third side.
Reason (R): A line drawn through the midpoint of one side of a triangle
parallel to another side bisects the third side.
(a) Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
(b) Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
(c) (A) is true but (R) is false
(d) (A) is false but (R) is true

4. Assertion (A): All congruent triangles are similar but the similar triangles 1
need not be congruent.
Reason (R): If the corresponding sides of two triangles are proportional,
then they are similar. (a) Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct
explanation of (A)
(b) Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
(c) (A) is true but (R) is false
(d) (A) is false but (R) is true
5. Assertion (A): If the median and mode of a frequency distribution are 50 1
 and 60 respectively, then its mean is 45.
Reason (R): Mean, median, and mode of a frequency distribution are
related as Mode = 3(Median) – 2(Mean) 28
(a) Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
(b) Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
(c) (A) is true but (R) is false
(d) (A) is false but (R) is true

6. Assertion (A): If three vertices of a parallelogram taken in order are 1

(–1, –6), (2, –5), and (7, 2), then its fourth vertex is (4,1).
Reason (R): Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.
(a) Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
(b) Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
(c) (A) is true but (R) is false
(d) (A) is false but (R) is true

1 Seating Capacity : The Fox Theater creates a “theater in the round” 5

9 when it shows any of Shakespeare’s plays. The first row has 80 seats, the
second row has 88, the third row has 96, and so on.
(i) How many seats are in the 10th row?
 (ii) How many seats are in the 25th row?
(iii) If there is room for 25 rows, how many chairs will be needed to
set up the theatre?
