Q.1

Inside a triangular park, there is a flower bed forming a similar triangle. Around the flower bed runs a uniform path of such a width that the sides of the park are exactly double the corresponding sides of the flower bed. Find the ratio of the area of the path to the flower bed.

Q.2

In the given figure, PQRS is a square of side 7√2 cm. With P and R as centres and PQ as radius, the arcs QAS and QBS are drawn, respectively. Find the area of the shaded region (in cm2).



Q.3

The average weight of A, B and C is 84 kg. If D joins the group, the average weight of the group becomes 80 kg. If another man E who weighs 3 kg more than D replaces A, then the average of B, C, D and E becomes 79 kg. What is the weight of A ?

Q.4

The houses of a row are numbered consecutively from 1 to 49. If there is a value of x such that the sum of the numbers of the houses preceding the house numbered x is equal to the sum of the numbers of the houses following it. Find the value of x.

Q.5

A square is drawn by joining midpoints of the sides of a square. Another square is drawn inside the second square in the same way and the process is continued indefinitely. If, the side of the first square is 16 cm, then what is the sum of the areas of all the squares?

Q.6
