Time: 3 Hours | Maximum Marks: 100

Section A: Algebra (25 marks)

1. Solve the quadratic equation 2x2 - 5x - 3 = 0.

2. Factorize the expression 4a2 - 9b2.

3. If 3x + 2y = 12 and 2x - y = 7, find the values of x and y.

4. Simplify: 2/(x - 3) + 3/(4 - x).

Section B: Geometry (25 marks)

5. In triangle ABC, if a = 8, b = 15, and c = 17, determine whether the triangle is right-angled.

6. The radius of a circle is 7 cm. Find the length of an arc subtended by a central angle of 60
degrees.

7. Prove that the opposite sides of a quadrilateral circumscribing a circle subtend

supplementary angles.

8. The diameter of a circle is 10 cm. Find the length of a chord, which is at a distance of 5 cm
from the center.

Section C: Trigonometry (20 marks)

9. If sin Θ = 4/5, find cos Θ and tan Θ.

10. Solve for x in the equation sin2 x + cos2 x = 1.

1
PR.

12. Prove the identity: csc Θ * cot Θ = 1.

Section D: Mensuration (20 marks)

13. The base of a triangular prism is an equilateral triangle with side 6 cm, and the height is 8
cm. Find its volume.

14. The lateral surface area of a cone is 154 cm², and its slant height is 14 cm. Find its radius.

15. A cylinder and a cone have the same base radius and height. If the volume of the cone is
1/3 of the volume of the cylinder, find the ratio of their heights.

16. The area of a sector of a circle is 18π cm², and the radius is 6 cm. Find the measure of the
central angle.

Section E: Statistics and Probability (10 marks)

17. The mean of a set of 8 observations is 25. If the mean of the first four observations is 20
and the mean of the last four observations is 30, find the fifth observation.

18. A bag contains 5 red balls and 3 green balls. Three balls are drawn without replacement.
What is the probability that all three balls are red?
