Step-by-step solution

3 steps

Here are the solutions to the questions:

1. The quadrilateral whose diagonals bisect the vertex through which they pass is

  • In a square, the diagonals bisect the angles at the vertices (each angle is 90 degrees, and the diagonal divides it into two 45-degree angles).
  • Answer: b) Square

2. The figure that is not a parallelogram is

  • A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides.
  • A square is a parallelogram.
  • A rhombus is a parallelogram.
  • A trapezium (or trapezoid) has only one pair of parallel sides, so it is not a parallelogram.
  • Answer: b) Trapezium

3. The length of the longest rod that can fit in a cuboidal box of dimensions a×b×ca \times b \times c is

  • The longest rod that can fit in a cuboidal box is its space diagonal. The formula for the space diagonal of a cuboid with dimensions a,b,ca, b, c is a2+b2+c2\sqrt{a^2+b^2+c^2}.
  • Answer: b) a2+b2+c2\boxed{\sqrt{a^2+b^2+c^2}}

4. Three cubes of edges xx cm, 4 cm and 5 cm are melted and shaped into a large cube of edge 6 cm. Then the value of xx is

  1. Calculate the volumes of the given cubes.

    • Volume of cube 1 = x3x^3 cm3^3
    • Volume of cube 2 = (4 cm)3=64(4 \text{ cm})^3 = 64 cm3^3
    • Volume of cube 3 = (5 cm)3=125(5 \text{ cm})^3 = 125 cm3^3
    • Volume of the large cube = (6 cm)3=216(6 \text{ cm})^3 = 216 cm3^3
  2. Apply the principle of conservation of volume.

    The sum of the volumes of the small cubes equals the volume of the large cube.

    x3+64+125=216x^3 + 64 + 125 = 216 x3+189=216x^3 + 189 = 216
  3. Solve for xx.
