Question There is a bridge whose length of three sides of a trapezium other than base are equal to 10 cm. Based on the above information answer the following:
Question 1 What is the value of DP? (A) ā(100āš„^2 ) (B) ā(š„^2ā100) (C) 100āš„^2 (D)ć š„ć^2 ā 100
In Ī ADP
By Pythagoras theorem
DP2 + AP2 = AD2
DP2 + x2 = 102
DP2 + x2 = 100
DP2 = 100 ā š„2
DP = ā(ššš āšš)
So, the correct answer is (A)
Question 2 What is the area of trapezium A(x)? (A) (š„ ā10)ā(100āš„^2 ) (B) (š„+10)ā(100āš„^2 ) (C) (š„ā10)(100āš„^2) (D) (š„+10)(100āš„^2 ") "
Let A be the area of trapezium ABCD
A = 1/2 (Sum of parallel sides) Ć (Height)
A = š/š (DC + AB) Ć DP
A = 1/2 (10+2š„+10) (ā(100āš„2))
A = 1/2 (2š„+20) (ā(100āš„2))
A = (š+šš) (ā(šššāšš))
So, the correct answer is (B)
Question 3 If A'(x) = 0, then what are the values of x? (A) 5,ā10 (B) ā5, 10 (C) ā5,ā10 (D) 5,10
A = (š+šš) (ā(šššāšš))
Since A has a square root
It will be difficult to differentiate
Let Z = A2
= (š„+10)^2 (100āš„2)
Where A'(x) = 0, there Zā(x) = 0
So, the correct answer is (A)
Differentiating Z
Z =(š„+10)^2 " " (100āš„2)
Differentiating w.r.t. x
Zā = š((š„ + 10)^2 " " (100 ā š„2))/šš
Using product rule
As (š¢š£)ā² = uāv + vāu
Zā = [(š„ + 10)^2 ]^ā² (100 ā š„^2 )+(š„ + 10)^2 " " (100 ā š„^2 )^ā²
Zā = 2(š„ + 10)(100 ā š„^2 )ā2š„(š„ + 10)^2
Zā = 2(š„ + 10)[100 ā š„^2āš„(š„+10)]
Zā = 2(š„ + 10)[100 ā š„^2āš„^2ā10š„]
Zā = 2(š„ + 10)[ā2š„^2ā10š„+100]
Zā = āš(š + šš)[š^š+šš+šš]
Putting š š/š š=š
ā4(š„ + 10)[š„^2+5š„+50] =0
(š„ + 10)[š„^2+5š„+50] =0
(š„ + 10) [š„2+10š„ā5š„ā50]=0
(š„ + 10) [š„(š„+10)ā5(š„+10)]=0
(š + šš)(šāš)(š+šš)=š
So, š„=š & š=āšš
So, the correct answer is (A)
Question 4 What is the value of maximum Area? (A) 75 ā2 cm^2 (B) 75 ā3 cm^2 (C) 75 ā5 cm^2 (D) 75 ā7 cm^2
We know that
Zā(x) = 0 at x = 5, ā10
Since x is length, it cannot be negative
ā“ x = 5
Finding sign of Zāā for x = 5
Now,
Zā = ā4(š„ + 10)[š„^2+5š„+50]
Zā = ā4[š„(š„^2+5š„+50)+10(š„^2+5š„+50)]
Zā = ā4[š„^3+5š„^2+50š„+10š„^2+50š„+500]
Zā = āš[š^š+ššš^š+šššš+ššš]
Differentiating w.r.t x
Zāā = š(ā4[š^š + ššš^š + šššš + ššš])/šš
Zāā =ā4[3š„^2+15 Ć 2š„+100]
Zāā =ā4[3š„^2+30š„+100]
Putting x = 5
Zāā (5) = ā4[3(5^2) +30(5) +100]
= ā4 Ć 375
= ā1500
< 0
Hence, š„ = 5 is point of Maxima
ā“ Z is Maximum at š„ = 5
That means,
Area A is maximum when x = 5
Finding maximum area of trapezium
A = (š„+10) ā(100āš„2)
= (5+10) ā(100ā(5)2)
= (15) ā(100ā25)
= 15 ā75
= 75āš cm2
So, the correct answer is (C)
