Factories x4+x2+1 . . .

Questin : Factories x⁴+x²+1

Doubt by Veer

Solution : 
x⁴+x²+1
Adding x² and subtracting x² 
=x⁴+x²+1+x²-x²
=x⁴+x²+x²+1-x²
=x⁴+2x²+1-x²
=[x⁴+2x²+1]-x²
=[(x²)²+2(x²)(1)+(1)²]-x²
=[(x²+1)²-x²] [∵a²+2ab+b²=(a+b)²]
=(x²+1-x)(x²+1+x)
=(x²-x+1)(x²+x+1)

If a2-2a-1=0, then find the value of aa+1/a2 . . .

Question : If a²-2a-1=0, then find the value of a²+1/a²?

Doubt by veer

Solution : 

a²-2a-1=0

dividing both sides by a
(a²-2a-1)/a=0/a
a²/a-2a/a-1/a=0/a
a-2-1/a=0
a-1/a=2 
S.B.S.
(a-1/a)²=(2)²
(a)²+(1/a)²-2(a)(1/a)=4 [∵(x-y)²=x²+y²-2xy]
a²+1/a²-2=4
a²+1/a²=4+2
a²+1/a²=6

Exterior angle property of a cyclic quadrilateral

Theorem  : If one side of a cyclic quadrilateral is produced, then the exterior angle is equal to the interior opposite angle.

Given :  A cyclic quadrilateral ABCD. Side AB is produced to E to form the exterior angle ∠CBE.

To Prove : ∠ADC=∠CBE

Proof : 

∠1+∠2=180°— (1) (Opposite angles of cylic quadrilateral are supplemntary)

∠2+∠3=180°— (2) (Linear Pair)

From equation (1) and (2)
⇒ ∠1+∠2=∠2+∠3
∠1=∠3
∠ADC=∠CBE

Hence Proved ■

Practice Question :

If an exterior angle of a cyclic quadrilateral is 50°, then the opposite interior angle is :

(A) 130°

(B) 40°

(C) 50°

(D) 90°

The definition of temperature says that it is . . .

Case Study Based Question on Linear Equation in Two Variables
The definition of temperature says that it is a measure of the hotness and coldness of a body. The two main units we often use to measure temperature are degree Celsius and degree Fahrenheit. 

The linear equation that converts Fahrenheit (F) to Celsius (C) is given by

°C×1.8=°F-32

Based on the above information, answer the following questions :

(i) Convert the normal body temperature in degree Celsius.

(ii) If the room temperature on a day is 35°C, then what will be its value in Fahrenheit scale ?

(iii) (A) Convert the freezing point and boiling point of water in Fahrenheit scale.

OR

(B) What is the numerical value of the temperature which is same in both the scales ?

Doubt by Parth 

Solution : 

(i) Normal body temperature in Fahrenheit (F) = 98.6 °F

°C×1.8=°F-32
=°C×1.8=98.6-32
=°C×1.8=66.6
=°C=66.6/1.8
°C=666/18
°C=222/6
°C=37

Normal body temperature in degree Celsius is 37°C

(ii) Room Temperature = 35°C

°C×1.8=°F-32
35×1.8=°F-32
63=°F-32
63+32=°F
95=°F
°F=95

Hence, room temperature in Fahrenheit scale will be 95°F.

(iii) (A)
Freezing Point of water = 0°C
Boiling Point of water = 100 °C
°C×1.8=°F-32
°F-32=°C×1.8
°F=[°C×1.8]+32

°F=[0×1.8]+32
°F=0+32
°F=32

°F=[100×1.8]+32
°F=180+32
°F=212

Hence, freezing point and boiling point is 32°F and 212°F respectively.

OR

(B) Let °C=°F=a
°C×1.8=°F-32
a×1.8=a-32
1.8a-a=-32
0.8a=-32
a=-32/0.8
a=-320/8
a=-40

Hence, the numerical value of the temperature which is same in both the scale is -40°.

Case Study Based Question on Statistics

Case Study Based Question on Statistics
Hydroponics is a new farming approach to lay the foundation for future agriculture careers. Class IX students explored hydroponics and discovered its benefits by growing 35 plants without soil (non soil material) in short span of time. The following table shows the record of the lengths of the 35 plants grown in plastic containers following proper guided techniques:

Length of Leaves (in cm)	9.3-9.7	9.8-10.2	10.3-10.7	10.8-11.2
Number of Plants	2	5	12	16

(a) Convert the given frequency distribution table into continuous grouped frequency distribution table. 

(b)How many plants grew in leaf length more than 9 cm.
OR 
How many plants grew in leaf length less than 12 cm?

(c) What is the mid point of the class interval 9.8-10.2

(d) In which field is statistics widely used to analyse and interpret data?

Doubt by Jugal 

Solution : 

(a) 
Here 
9.8-9.7
=0.1
Dividing by 2
0.1/2
=0.05

Now subtracting 0.05 from lower limit and adding 0.05 to upper limit. The continous grouped frequency distribution table is : 

Length of Leaves (in cm)	9.25-9.75	9.75-10.25	10.25-10.75	10.75-11.25
Number of Plants	2	5	12	16

(b) Number of plants which grew in leaf length are more than 9 cm 
= 2+5+12+16
= 35

OR

Number of plants which grew in leaf length are less than 12 cm 
= 2+5+12+16
= 35

(c) Mid Point of 9.8-10.2
Mid Point = (Lower Limit + Upper Limit)/2
Mid Point = (9.8+10.2)/2
Mid Point = 20/2
Mid Point = 10

(d) Business and economics is one of the most common fields where statistics is used, especially for decision-making and forecasting.
