Section E (Case Study based)

21. Manpreet Kaur is the national record holder for women in the shot-put discipline. Her throw of 18.86m at the Asian
Grand Prix in 2017 is the biggest distance for an Indian female athlete. Keeping her as a role model, Sanjitha is
determined to earn gold in Olympics one day. Initially her throw reached 7.56m only. Being an athlete in school, she
regularly practiced both in the mornings and in the evenings and was able to improve the distance by 9cm every
week. During the special camp for 15 days, she started with 40 throws and every day kept increasing the number of
throws by 12 to achieve this remarkable progress.
(i) How many throws Sanjitha practiced on 11th day of the camp? [1]
(ii) What would be Sanjitha’s throw distance at the end of 6 months? [2]
(OR)
When will she be able to achieve a throw of 11.16 m?
(iii) How many throws did she do during the entire camp of 15 days [1]
22. A boy is standing on the top of light house. He observed that boat P and boat Q are approaching the light house from
opposite directions. He finds that angle of depression of boat P is 45° and angle of depression of boat Q is 30°. He
also knows that height of the light house is 100 m.

Based on the above information, answer the following questions.

(i) What is the measure of ∠APD? [1]
(ii) If ∠YAQ = 30°, then ∠AQD is also 30°, Why? [1]
(iii) How far is boat P from the light house? [2]
OR
How far is the boat Q from the light house
