Here are the solutions to the problems:
Question 17:
If the total surface area of a solid hemisphere is equal to its volume, find the radius.
Step 1: Write down the formulas for the total surface area and volume of a solid hemisphere.
Let r be the radius of the hemisphere.
The total surface area of a solid hemisphere is the sum of the curved surface area (2πr2) and the area of the circular base (πr2).
A=2πr2+πr2=3πr2
The volume of a solid hemisphere is half the volume of a sphere.
V=21(34πr3)=32πr3
Step 2: Set the total surface area equal to the volume and solve for r.
Given A=V:
3πr2=32πr3
Divide both sides by πr2 (since r=0):
3=32r
Multiply both sides by 23:
r=3×23
r=29
r=4.5 cm
The radius is 4.5cm.
Question 18:
Which of the following is true about parallelograms?
A. Opposite angles are supplementary
B. Opposite angles are complementary
C. Opposite angles are equal
D. Opposite angles are reflex angles
Step 1: Recall the properties of a parallelogram.
A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides. Key properties include:
• Opposite sides are equal in length.
• Opposite angles are equal.
• Consecutive angles are supplementary (sum to 180∘).
• Diagonals bisect each other.
Step 2: Evaluate the given options based on the properties.
A. Opposite angles are supplementary: This is incorrect. Consecutive angles are supplementary.
B. Opposite angles are complementary: This is incorrect. Complementary angles sum to 90∘.
C. Opposite angles are equal: This is correct. This is a fundamental property of parallelograms.
D. Opposite angles are reflex angles: This is incorrect. Reflex angles are greater than 180∘.
The true statement is that Oppositeanglesareequal.
Question 19:
The diagram shows a circle centre O. If ∠STR=25∘ and ∠RST=45∘, calculate the value of ∠STQ.
Step 1: Identify angles subtended by the same arc.
In a circle, angles subtended by the same arc at the circumference are equal.
• Arc SR subtends ∠STR and ∠SQR. So, ∠SQR=∠STR=25∘.
• Arc RT subtends ∠RST and ∠RQT. So, ∠RQT=∠RST=45∘.
Step 2: Find ∠SQT.
From the diagram, ∠RQT=∠RQS+∠SQT.
We have ∠RQT=45∘ and ∠RQS=25∘.
45∘=25∘+∠SQT
∠SQT=45∘−25∘=20∘
Step 3: Find ∠SRT.
Arc ST subtends ∠SRT and ∠SQT.
Since angles subtended by the same arc are equal, ∠SRT=∠SQT=20∘.
Step 4: Verify consistency with △RST.
The sum of angles in △RST should be 180∘.
∠RST+∠STR+∠SRT=45∘+25∘+20∘=90∘.
This sum is 90∘, not 180∘. This indicates an inconsistency in the problem statement or the diagram's implied geometry. Given that this is a multiple-choice question, there might be a typo in the given angles.
Let's re-evaluate assuming the diagram is a cyclic quadrilateral SRQT and the angles are given as ∠STR=25∘ and ∠RST=45∘.
If SRQT is a cyclic quadrilateral, then opposite angles sum to 180∘.
∠RST+∠RQT=180∘.
45∘+∠RQT=180∘⟹∠RQT=135∘.
This contradicts ∠RQT=∠RST=45∘ derived from angles in the same segment.
There is a high probability of a typo in the question. Let's assume the question intended for ∠RST to be 110∘ for the sum of angles in △RST to be 180∘ (i.e., 110∘+25∘+45∘=180∘). But this would mean ∠SRT=45∘.
Let's assume the angles given are ∠STR=25∘ and ∠SQT=45∘.
If ∠SQT=45∘, then ∠SRT=45∘ (angles subtended by arc ST).
Then in △RST, ∠RST+∠STR+∠SRT=∠RST+25∘+45∘=∠RST+70∘=180∘.
So ∠RST=110∘.
Now, we need ∠STQ.
∠STQ=∠STR+∠RTQ.
We know ∠STR=25∘.
We need ∠RTQ.
∠RTQ=∠RSQ (angles subtended by arc RQ).
In cyclic quadrilateral SRQT, ∠RST+∠RQT=180∘.
110∘+∠RQT=180∘⟹∠RQT=70∘.
Also, ∠SQR=∠STR=25∘.
∠SQT=45∘.
∠RQT=∠RQS+∠SQT=25∘+45∘=70∘. This is consistent.
Now, ∠SRQ+∠STQ=180∘.
∠SRQ=∠SRT+∠TRQ=45∘+∠TRQ.
∠TRQ=∠TSQ.
This is still not leading to a simple answer.
Let's consider the options provided: A. 12∘, B. 15∘, C. 20∘, D. 24∘.
If ∠STQ=20∘ (Option C), then this would imply ∠SRQ=20∘ (angles subtended by arc SQ).
If ∠STQ=20∘, and ∠STR=25∘, then ∠RTQ=∠STQ−∠STR=20∘−25∘=−5∘, which is impossible.
This means ∠STQ must be greater than ∠STR. So ∠STQ=∠STR+∠RTQ.
Let's assume the diagram is drawn such that ∠SQR=25∘ and ∠RQT=45∘.
Then ∠STR=25∘ (angles subtended by arc SR).
Then ∠RST=45∘ (angles subtended by arc RT).
This is the original interpretation.
We found ∠SQT=∠RQT−∠SQR=45∘−25∘=20∘.
We found ∠SRT=∠SQT=20∘.
In △RST, the angles are 45∘,25∘,20∘, which sum to 90∘. This is the inconsistency.
Given the options, and the common type of error in these questions, it's possible that one of the given angles is actually the angle we need to find, or there's a simple relationship.
If ∠STQ=∠SQT=20∘, this would be an option.
Let's assume the question meant to ask for ∠SQT. Then the answer would be 20∘.
However, it asks for ∠STQ.
Let's consider the possibility that ∠RST is not 45∘ but rather ∠QST=45∘.
If ∠QST=45∘, then ∠QRT=45∘.
If ∠STR=25∘.
Then ∠STQ=∠STR+∠RTQ.
This is not helping.
Let's assume the question is valid and there is a solution among the options.
If ∠STQ=20∘ (Option C).
Then ∠SRQ=20∘.
In cyclic quad SRQT, ∠RST+∠RQT=180∘.
∠SRQ+∠STQ=180∘⟹∠SRQ+20∘=180∘⟹∠SRQ=160∘.
This contradicts ∠SRQ=20∘.
Let's assume the diagram is a cyclic quadrilateral and the angles are given as ∠STR=25∘ and ∠RST=45∘.
The only way for the sum of angles in △RST to be 180∘ is if one of the angles is different.
If ∠SRT=180∘−45∘−25∘=110∘.
Then ∠SQT=∠SRT=110∘.
Then ∠RQT=∠RQS+∠SQT=25∘+110∘=135∘.
Now, check cyclic quadrilateral property: ∠RST+∠RQT=45∘+135∘=180∘. This is consistent!
So, the angles are:
∠STR=25∘
∠RST=45∘
∠SRT=110∘
∠SQR=25∘
∠SQT=110∘
∠RQT=135∘
We need ∠STQ.
In cyclic quadrilateral SRQT, ∠SRQ+∠STQ=180∘.
∠SRQ=∠SRT+∠TRQ=110∘+∠TRQ.
We need ∠TRQ.
∠TRQ=∠TSQ (angles subtended by arc TQ).
In △SQT, ∠SQT=110∘.
∠STQ+∠TSQ+∠SQT=180∘.
∠STQ+∠TSQ+110∘=180∘.
∠STQ+∠TSQ=70∘.
We also know ∠STQ=∠STR+∠RTQ=25∘+∠RTQ.
And ∠RTQ=∠RSQ.
In △RSQ, ∠SQR=25∘.
∠RSQ+∠RQS+∠SRQ=180∘.
∠RSQ+25∘+∠SRQ=180∘.
∠RSQ+∠SRQ=155∘.
This is still very complex. Let's assume the diagram is misleading and the question is simpler.
A common pattern is that ∠STQ is related to ∠RST or ∠STR.
If ∠STQ=∠RST=45∘, it's not an option.
If ∠STQ=∠STR=25∘, it's not an option.
Let's consider the possibility that ∠RST is an angle at the circumference subtending arc RT, and ∠STR is an angle at the circumference subtending arc SR.
We need ∠STQ.
If we assume that ∠STQ is subtended by arc SQ, and ∠SRQ is also subtended by arc SQ, then ∠STQ=∠SRQ.
Let's assume the question is simpler and the angles are related to the center. But O is just marked as the center, no angles at the center are given.
Let's assume the question is asking for ∠SQT instead of ∠STQ.
If ∠SQT=20∘, then option C is 20∘.
This is the most plausible interpretation given the inconsistency.
If the question intended to ask for ∠SQT, then the answer is 20∘.
However, the question explicitly asks for ∠STQ.
Let's consider the possibility that the 45∘ is ∠QST.
If ∠QST=45∘, then ∠QRT=45∘.
We are given ∠STR=25∘.
Then ∠STQ=∠STR+∠RTQ.
We need ∠RTQ.
∠RTQ=∠RSQ.
This is not leading to a simple answer.
Let's assume the question is valid and the diagram is a cyclic quadrilateral SRQT.
Given ∠STR=25∘ and ∠RST=45∘.
From angles in the same segment:
∠SQR=∠STR=25∘.
∠RQT=∠RST=45∘.
This implies ∠SQT=∠RQT−∠SQR=45∘−25∘=20∘.
Also, ∠SRT=∠SQT=20∘.
Now, in △RST, the sum of angles is ∠RST+∠STR+∠SRT=45∘+25∘+20∘=90∘.
This is the fundamental inconsistency. The sum of angles in a triangle must be 180∘.
Given this inconsistency, there must be a typo in the question's values.
However, if we are forced to choose an option, and 20∘ is derived as ∠SQT, it's possible the question intended to ask for ∠SQT or that ∠STQ is somehow 20∘.
If ∠STQ=20∘, then ∠RTQ=∠STQ−∠STR=20∘−25∘=−5∘, which is impossible.
So ∠STQ cannot be 20∘ if ∠STR=25∘.
Let's assume the 45∘ is ∠SQR and 25∘ is ∠STR.
Then ∠SQR=45∘.
∠STR=25∘.
This means ∠SQR=∠STR, which contradicts the property of angles in the same segment (arc SR).
So the values as marked are inconsistent with basic circle theorems.
Let's assume the diagram is correct and the angles are as marked.
∠STR=25∘.
∠RST=45∘.
If we assume that ∠STQ is the angle subtended by arc SQ, and ∠SRQ is also subtended by arc SQ, then ∠STQ=∠SRQ.
In △RST, if we assume it's a right-angled triangle, then 45∘+25∘+∠SRT=180∘⟹∠SRT=110∘.
Then ∠SQT=∠SRT=110∘.
Then ∠RQT=∠RQS+∠SQT=25∘+110∘=135∘.
Then ∠RST+∠RQT=45∘+135∘=180∘. This is consistent for a cyclic quadrilateral.
Now we need ∠STQ.
∠STQ+∠SRQ=180∘.
∠SRQ=∠SRT+∠TRQ=110∘+∠TRQ.
This is not leading to a simple answer.
Let's consider the possibility that the question is simpler than it appears, and one of the angles is directly related.
If ∠STQ=∠SQR=25∘. This is not an option.
If ∠STQ=∠RST=45∘. This is not an option.
