Very Short Answer Type Questions

Question 1
In a ∆ABC, ∠B is a right angle. If AB = 5 cm and BC = 12 cm then (RBSESolutions.com) find the length of AC.
Solution:
By Pythagorous Theorem
RBSE Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 8 Triangle and its Properties Additional Questions
AC2 = AB2 + BC2
= 52 + 122
= 25 + 144
= 169
= 132
or AC2 = 132 = AC = 13 cm
Thus, length of AC is 13 cm.

Question 2
Name the given triangle (RBSESolutions.com) after finding the value of x.
Solution:
In ∆DEF,
RBSE Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 8 Triangle and its Properties Additional Questions
x° + 2x° + 3x° = 180°
⇒ 6° = 180°
⇒ x° = 30°
∴ ∠E = x° = 30°
∠D = 2x° = 60°
and ∠F = 3x° = 90°
∆DEF is a right angled triangle.

Question 3
How many medians (RBSESolutions.com) may be in a triangle?
Solution:
A triangle has three vertices and three sides. Therefore each vertex makes a median after joining the mid point of its opposite sides. Therefore there may be three medians.

Question 4
Does a median lies inside the triangle completely? If you think, it is not true, then draw a figure showing that position.
Solution:
Yes, a median lies inside the triangle completely.

Question 5
Find the value of x in (RBSESolutions.com) the given figure.
Solution:
Sum of opposite interior angles = Exterior angle
RBSE Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 8 Triangle and its Properties Additional Questions
60° + x = 110°

5 cm + 7.5 cm > 3.5 cm
∴ Construction of triangle is possible.
(b) 4.3 cm + 3.7 cm = 8 cm.
∴ The construction of triangle is not possible.
(c) 3.5 cm + 2.7 cm < 6.5 cm

Question 2
The two angles of (RBSESolutions.com) a triangle are 30° and 80°. Find the third angle of this triangle.
Solution:
Let ∆ABC is a triangle where ∠B = 30° and ∠C = 80°.
Now, ∠B + ∠C = 30° + 80° = 110°
∵∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180° or ∠A + 110° = 180° or ∠A = 180° – 110° = 70°
Thus, third angle is 70°.

Question 3
One angle of a triangle is 80° and remaining two (RBSESolutions.com) angles are equal. Find the measure of each of the equal angles.
Solution:
Let in ∆ABC, = 80° and ∠B = ∠C
∵∠A + ∠B +∠c = 180°
⇒ 80° +∠B + ∠B = 180°
[∵ ∠A= 80° and 2C = ∠B]
⇒ 2∠B = 180° – 80°
⇒ ∠B = ( \(\frac { { 100 }^{ 0 } }{ 2 }\))= 50°
Measure of each of the equal angles = 50°

Long Answer Type Questions

Question 1
Find the value of ∠x and ∠y in each (RBSESolutions.com) of the given figures :
RBSE Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 8 Triangle and its Properties Additional Questions
RBSE Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 8 Triangle and its Properties Additional Questions
Solution:
(i) Interior angles ∠C + 120° = 180°
∠C = 180° – 120° = 60°
∵ ∆ABC is an isosceles (RBSESolutions.com) triangle where
AB = AC
⇒ ∠B =∠C = 60° = y
∵ ∠A + ∠B +∠C = 180°
x + 60° + 60° = 180°
x = 180° – 120° = 60°
∴ x = 60° and y = 60°

(ii) ∠ABC is an isosceles (RBSESolutions.com) triangle where BC =AC
BC = AC
⇒ ∠A = ∠B = x
and ∠A + ∠B = 90° [∵ ∠C = 90°]
⇒ x + x = 90°
⇒ 2x = 90°
⇒ x = \(\frac { { 90 }^{ 0 } }{ 2 }\) = 45°
But ∠B +1 = 180°
x + y = 180°
⇒ 45° + y = 180°
⇒ y = 180° – 45 = 135°
∴ x = 45° and y = 135°

(iii) ∆ABC is an isosceles (RBSESolutions.com) triangle where AB = AC
AB = AC
⇒ ∠B = ∠C
or ∠B =∠C = x
and ∠A = 92° [vertically opposite angles]
∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°
92° + x + x = 180°
⇒ 2x = 180° – 92° = 88°
⇒ x = (\(\frac { { 88 }^{ 0 } }{ 2 }\)) = 44°
and ∠C + y = 180° [Linear pair]
⇒ y = 180° – 44° [∵∠C = x = 41°]
= 136०
∴ x = 44° and y = 136°

Question 2
A tree breaks from the height of 5 m and its upper part touches (RBSESolutions.com) the ground at the distance of 12 m from it base. Find the total height of the tree.
Solution:
Let BCD is a tree which breaks from point C and D is its upper part which touches the ground at point A
RBSE Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 8 Triangle and its Properties Additional Questions
∴ CD = AC
BC = 5 m
AB = 12 m
In right triangle, ∆ABC
AC2 = AB2 + BC2
= 122 + 52
= 144 + 25 = 169
AC2 = 169 = (13)2
AC = 13 m
∴ CD = AC = 13m
Height of the tree (BD) = BC+ CD
= 5 + 13 = 18 m

Question 3
In ∆PQR ∠Q = 25° and ∠R = 65° which of the (RBSESolutions.com) following statement is true?
RBSE Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 8 Triangle and its Properties Additional Questions
(i) PQ2 + QR2 = RP2
(ii) PQ2 + RP2 = QR2
(iii) RP2 + QR2 = PQ2
Solution:
∵ The sum of all three angles (RBSESolutions.com) of a triangle is always 180°.
∴ ∠P + ∠Q +∠R = 180°
⇒ ∠P + 25° + 65° = 180°
⇒ ∠P + 90° = 180°
⇒ ∠P = 180° – 90° = 90°
∴ ∆PQR is a right angled triangle where ∠P = 90°
∴ From Pythagorous Theorem PR2 + PQ2 = QR2
= QR2
∴ (ii) is true.

Question 4
The length of a rectangle is 4.5 cm and its (RBSESolutions.com) diagonal is 5.5 cm. Find its perimeter.
RBSE Solutions for Class 7 Maths Chapter 8 Triangle and its Properties Additional Questions
Solution:
Let ABCD is a rectangle (RBSESolutions.com) where AB = 4.5 cm and AC = 5.5 cm
In right angled triangle ∆ABC, ∠B = 90°.
∴ From Pythagorous Theorem
BC2 = AC2 – AB2 = 5.52 – 4.52
= (5.5 + 4.5) (5.5 – 4.5) = 10 x 1
BC2 = 10
BC= 3.16 m
∴ Perimeter of rectangle = 2(AB + BC)
= 2(4.5 + 3.16) cm
= 2 x 7.66
= 15.32 cm
