Question Bank : Age Group 14-15 : XI
1. Find the equation of the straight line joining the point of intersection of 3x - y + 9 = 0 and
2y + x - 4 = 0 to the point of intersection of 2x + y = 4 and 2y = x + 3.
2. The vertices of a triangle ABC are A (-3, 3), B (-1, -4), and C (5, -2). M and N are the midpoints of AB and AC. Show that MN is parallel to BC and
3. Find the equation of the line parallel to the Y axis and passing through the point of intersection of 3x - 4y - 9 = 0 and x - 4y - 2 = 0.
4. Find the orthocenter of the triangle whose vertices are (-2, 1), (-1, -4), and (0, -5).
5. Prove that the line segments joining the mid points of the adjacent sides of a rhombus form a rectangle.
6. ABCD is a trapezium with AB || CD. The diagonals AC and BD intersect at E. If
Δ AED ||| Δ BEC, prove that AD = BC.
7. Two circles intersect each other internally at P. If ACP and BDP are the lines meeting the two circles at A, B and C, D respectively, prove that
8. Show that
9. If A = 30°, and B = 60°, verify that
(i) sin(A + B) = sin A cos B + cos A sin B
(ii) cos(A + B) = cos A cos B - sinA sin B.
10. From the top of a building 60 meters high, the angle of depression of the top and bottom of a tower are observed to be 30° and 60° respectively. Find the height of the tower.

In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
Always satisfy the Prime Directive of getting the right answer above all else.

What is the meaning of |||?

Maybe it is supposed to be a sign for congruence?

Then question 6 would be not a question at all.

Hi Agnishom
Question 6 means probably that triangles AED and BEC are similar . We have to proof that:
if EB/EA=EC/ED, then AD=BC.
EB/EA=EC/ED -->EB*ED=EA*EC --> A,B,C,D are concyclic --> AD=BC

Re: Question Bank : Age Group 14-15 : XI
1. How does that make them concyclic?
2. How can you say that the opposite sides of a concyclic quadrilateral are equal?
