PSEB 8th Class English Grammar Voice (Active and Passive Voice)

अंग्रेज़ी भाषा में Voice (वाच्य) दो प्रकार की होती है-
1. Active Voice
2. Passive Voice

1. Active Voice : जब किसी वाक्य में Subject (कर्ता) कार्य करता है तो वाक्य का Verb, Active Voice में होता है।
2. Passive Voice : जब किसी वाक्य में Subject (कर्ता) कार्य नहीं करता है बल्कि उस पर कार्य किया जाता है तो वाक्य का Verb, Passive Voice में होता है।
Example : The hunter killed the lion. शिकारी ने शेर को मारा।
The lion was killed by the hunter. शेर शिकारी द्वारा मारा गया।

नोट-विद्यार्थियों को Verb की तीसरी फ़ार्म लगाना कभी नहीं भूलना चाहिए। Let, hit, cut आदि शब्दों की फ़ार्म लगाते समय विशेष सावधानी बरतनी चाहिए।
Imperative तथा To + 1st form वाले वाक्य में Be का प्रयोग होता है।

“Active से Passive बनाने की विधि

Punjab State Board PSEB 8th Class Maths Book Solutions Chapter 2 Linear Equations in One Variable Ex 2.3 Textbook Exercise Questions and Answers.

PSEB Solutions for Class 8 Maths Chapter 2 Linear Equations in One Variable Ex 2.3

Solve the following equations and check your results :

Question 1.
3x = 2x + 18
Solution:
3x = 2x + 18
∴ 3x – 2x = 18 (Transposing 2x to LHS)
∴ x = 18

Check:
LHS = 3x = 3 × 18 = 54
RHS = 2x + 18
= 2(18) + 18
= 36 + 18 = 54
LHS = RHS
Thus, the answer is correct.

Question 2.
5t – 3 = 3t – 5
Solution:
5t – 3 = 3t – 5
∴ 5t – 3t – 3 = – 5 (Transposing 3t to LHS)
∴ 2t – 3 = -5
∴ 2t = – 5 + 3 (Transposing -3 to RHS)
∴ 2t = – 2
∴ \(\frac{2 t}{2}=\frac{-2}{2}\) (Dividing both the sides by 2)
∴ t = – 1

Check:
LHS = 5t – 3
= 5 (- 1) – 3
= – 5 – 3 = -8
RHS = 3t – 5
= 3 (- 1) – 5
= – 3 – 5 = – 8
∴ LHS = RHS
Thus, the answer is correct.

Question 3.
5x + 9 = 5 + 3x
Solution:
5x + 9 = 5 + 3x
∴ 5x + 9 – 3x = 5 (Transposing 3x to LHS)
∴ 2x + 9 = 5
∴ 2x = 5 – 9 (Transposing 9 to RHS)
∴ 2x = -4
∴ \(\frac{2 x}{2}=\frac{-4}{2}\) (Dividing both the sides by 2)
x = – 2

Check:
LHS = 5x + 9
= 5 (-2) + 9
= – 10 + 9 = -1
RHS = 5 + 3x
= 5 + 3 (-2)
= 5 – 6 = -1
∴ LHS = RHS
Thus, the answer is correct.

Question 4.
4z + 3 = 6 + 2z
Solution:
4z + 3 = 6 + 2z
∴ 4z + 3 – 2z = 6 (Transposing 2z to LHS)
∴ 2z + 3 = 6
∴ 2z = 6 – 3 (Transposing 3 to RHS)
∴ 2z = 3
∴ \(\frac{2 z}{2}=\frac{3}{2}\) (Dividing both the sides by 2)
∴ z = \(\frac {3}{2}\)

Check:
LHS = 4z + 3
=4 (\(\frac {3}{2}\)) + 3
= 6 + 3 = 9
RHS = 6 + 2z
= 6 + 2(\(\frac {3}{2}\))
= 6 + 3 = 9
LHS = RHS
Thus, the answer is correct.

Question 5.
2x – 1 = 14 – x
Solution:
2x – 1 = 14-x
∴ 2x – 1 + x = 14 (Transposing -x to LHS)
∴ 3x – 1 = 14
∴ 3x = 14 + 1 (Transposing -1 to RHS)
∴ 3x = 15
∴ \(\frac{3 x}{3}=\frac{15}{3}\) (Dividing both the sides by 3)
x = 5

Check:
LHS = 2x – 1
= 2 (5) – 1
= 10 – 1 = 9
RHS = 14 – x
= 14 – 5 = 9
LHS = RHS
Thus, the answer is correct.

Question 6.
8x + 4 = 3(x – 1) + 7
Solution:
8x + 4 = 3(x – 1) + 7
∴ 8x + 4 = 3x – 3 + 7
∴ 8x + 4 = 3x + 4
∴ 8x + 4 – 3x = 4 (Transposing 3x to LHS)
∴ 5x + 4 = 4
∴ 5x = 4 – 4 (Transposing 4 to RHS)
∴ 5x = 0
∴ \(\frac{5 x}{5}=\frac{0}{5}\) (Dividing both the sides by 5)
∴ x = 0

Check:
LHS = 8x + 4
= 8 (0) + 4
= 0 + 4 = 4
RHS = 3 (x – 1) + 7
= 3(0 – 1) + 7
= 3 (-1) + 7
= – 3 + 7 = 4
∴ LHS = RHS
Thus, the answer is correct.

Question 7.
x = \(\frac {4}{5}\) (x + 10)
Solution:
x = \(\frac {4}{5}\) (x + 10)
∴ x = \(\frac{4 x}{5}+10 \times \frac{4}{5}\)
∴ x = \(\frac{4 x}{5}+8\)
∴ x – \(\frac{4 x}{5}\) = 8 (Transposing \(\frac{4 x}{5}\) to LHS)
∴ \(\frac{5 x-4 x}{5}\) = 8 (LCM = 5)
∴ \(\frac{x}{5}\) = 8
∴ \(\frac{x}{5}\) × 5 = 8 × 5 (Multiplying both the sides by 5)
∴ x = 40

Check:
LHS = x = 40
RHS = \(\frac {4}{5}\) (x + 10)
= \(\frac {4}{5}\) (40 + 10)
= \(\frac {4}{5}\) (50)
= 4 × 10 = 40
∴ LHS = RHS
Thus, the answer is correct.

Question 8.
\(\frac{2 x}{3}+1=\frac{7 x}{15}+3\)
Solution:
\(\frac{2 x}{3}+1=\frac{7 x}{15}+3\)
∴ \(\frac{2 x}{3}\) = \(\frac{7 x}{15}\) + 3 – 1 (Transposing 1 to RHS)
∴ \(\frac{2 x}{3}\) = \(\frac{7 x}{15}\) + 2
∴ \(\frac{2 x}{3}-\frac{7 x}{15}\) = 2 (Transposing \(\frac{7 x}{15}\) to LHS)
∴ \(\frac{2 x \times 5-7 x}{15}\) (LCM = 15)
∴ \(\frac{10 x-7 x}{15}\) = 2
∴ \(\frac{3 x}{15}\) = 2
∴ \(\frac{x}{5}\) = 2
∴ \(\frac{x}{5}\) × 5 = 2 × 5 (Multiplying both the sides by 5)
∴ x = 10

Check:
LHS = \(\frac{2 x}{3}\) + 1
= \(\frac{2(10)}{3}\) + 1
= \(\frac{20}{3}\) + 1 = \(\frac{23}{3}\)
RHS = \(\frac{7 x}{15}\) + 3
= \(\frac{7(10)}{15}\) + 3
= \(\frac {14}{3}\) + 3
= \(\frac {23}{3}\)
∴ LHS = RHS
Thus, the answer is correct.

Question 9.
2y + \(\frac {5}{3}\) = \(\frac {26}{3}\) – y
Solution:
2y + \(\frac {5}{3}\) = \(\frac {26}{3}\) – y
∴ 2y + y + \(\frac {5}{3}\) = \(\frac {26}{3}\) (Transposing -y to LHS)
∴ 3y + \(\frac {5}{3}\) = \(\frac {26}{3}\)
∴ 3y = \(\frac{26}{3}-\frac{5}{3}\) (Transposing \(\frac {5}{3}\) to RHS)
∴ 3y = \(\frac{26-5}{3}\)
∴ 3y = \(\frac {21}{3}\)
∴ 3y = 7
∴ \(\frac{3 y}{3}=\frac{7}{3}\) (Dividing both the sides by 3)
∴ y = \(\frac {7}{3}\)

Check:
LHS = 2y + \(\frac {5}{3}\)
= 2(\(\frac {7}{3}\) ) + \(\frac {5}{3}\)
= \(\frac{14}{3}+\frac{5}{3}\)
= \(\frac{14+5}{3}\)
= \(\frac {19}{3}\)
RHS = \(\frac {26}{3}\) – y
= \(\frac{26}{3}-\frac{7}{3}\)
= \(\frac{26-7}{3}\)
= \(\frac {19}{3}\)

Question 10.
3m = 5m – \(\frac {8}{5}\)
Solution:
3m = 5m – \(\frac {8}{5}\)
∴ 3m – 5m = –\(\frac {8}{5}\) (Transposing 5m to LHS)
∴ -2m = –\(\frac {8}{5}\)
∴ 2m = \(\frac {8}{5}\) [Multiplying both the sides by (-1)]
∴ \(\frac{2 m}{2}=\frac{8}{5} \times \frac{1}{2}\) (Dividing both the sides by 2)
∴ m = \(\frac {4}{5}\)

Check:
LHS = 3m
= 3(\(\frac {4}{5}\))
= \(\frac {12}{5}\)
RHS = 5m – \(\frac {8}{5}\)
= 5(\(\frac {4}{5}\)) – \(\frac {8}{5}\)
= 4 – \(\frac {8}{5}\)
= \(\frac{20-8}{5}\)
= \(\frac {12}{5}\)
∴ LHS = RHS
Thus, the answer is correct.

2. (i) I went to see the match.
(ii) We go home to take rest.

3. (i) Dancing is an art.
(ii) She enjoys dancing.

सभी italicised शब्द ऐसे शब्द हैं जो अपने आप में किसी वाक्य का Predicate नहीं बन सकते। हम ऊपर दिए गए किसी भी वाक्य का italicised शब्द के साथ predicate नहीं बना सकते। अर्थात् ‘I jumping’, ‘I dancing’ आदि predicate नहीं बना सकते, इस प्रकार के Verbs को Non-Finite Verbs कहते हैं। इसके विपरीत वे Verbs या Verb Phrases जो किसी वाक्य के Predicate बन सकते हैं, Finite Verbs कहलाते हैं।

एक अन्य परिभाषा

Italicised शब्दों पर Tense, Person अथवा Number का कोई प्रभाव दिखाई नहीं देता। अर्थात् जिन Verbs पर Tense, Person के Number का प्रभाव नहीं होता, Non-Finite Verbs कहलाते हैं। Tense अथवा Subject बदलने के पश्चात् भी इन Verbs का रूप नहीं बदलता। इसके विपरीत Finite Verbs का रूप Tense तथा Person के अनुसार बदल सकता है। आओ वाक्यों पर पुनः विचार करें-
1. (a) I saw the train moving.
I see the train moving.
He sees the train moving.

(b) He got his watch repaired.
He gets his watch repaired.
They will get their watches repaired.

2. (i) I want to see the match.
(ii) He wants to see the match.
(iii) We wanted to see the match.

3. (i) She enjoys dancing.
(ii) She will enjoy dancing.
(iii) They enjoyed dancing.

अतः स्पष्ट है कि Finite Verbs (underlined) का परिवर्तन होने पर भी Non-finite Verbs में कोई परिवर्तन नहीं होता।

पूर्ण स्पष्टीकरण
अब दाईं तथा बाईं ओर दिए गए शब्द-समूहों का अध्ययन करो। आप देखेंगे कि Non-finites किस प्रकार Predicate का रूप धारण नहीं कर सकते।

Finite Verbs:
He takes tea.
He can drive well.
They have gone home.
The dog was beaten by the boys

Non-Finite Verbs:
He taking tea.
He to drive well.
They going home.
The dog beaten by the boys.

बाईं ओर के सभी शब्द समूह वाक्य हैं। ऐसा इसलिए है क्योंकि इनके Verbs Predicate का काम करते हैं परन्तु दाईं ओर के Verbs Non-Finites हैं। क्योंकि Non-Finites स्वयं Predicate का निर्माण नहीं करते, इसलिए दाईं ओर के शब्द-समूह वाक्य नहीं हो सकते।

Non-Finites का वर्गीकरण-
(1) Present Participle
(2) Past Participle

1. (a) (i). I saw the girl jumping. (Present Participle)
(ii) I did not see the dancing girl. (Present Participle)

(b) (i) He got his shoes mended. (Past Participle)
(ii) He is a ‘worried man now. (Past Participle)

2. (i) I want to see the match. (Infinitive)

Punjab State Board PSEB 8th Class Maths Book Solutions Chapter 2 Linear Equations in One Variable Ex 2.2 Textbook Exercise Questions and Answers.

PSEB Solutions for Class 8 Maths Chapter 2 Linear Equations in One Variable Ex 2.2

Question 1.
If you subtract \(\frac {1}{2}\) from a number and multiply the result by \(\frac {1}{2}\), you get \(\frac {1}{8}\). What is the number?
Solution:
Let the required number be x.
By subtracting \(\frac {1}{2}\) from x, we get x-\(\frac {1}{2}\) and by multiplying this result by \(\frac {1}{2}\),
we get \(\frac {1}{2}\)(x – \(\frac {1}{2}\))
But, the result is \(\frac {1}{8}\)
\(\frac {1}{2}\)(x – \(\frac {1}{2}\)) = \(\frac {1}{8}\)
∴ \(\frac {1}{2}\)(x – \(\frac {1}{2}\)) × 2 = \(\frac {1}{8}\) × 2 (Multiplying both the sides by 2)
∴ x – \(\frac {1}{2}\) = \(\frac {1}{4}\)
∴ x = \(\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{2}\) (Transposing –\(\frac {1}{2}\) to RHS)
∴ x = \(\frac{1+2}{4}\) (LCM = 4)
∴ x = \(\frac {3}{4}\)
Thus, the required number = \(\frac {3}{4}\)

Question 2.
The perimeter of a rectangular swimming pool is 154 m. Its length is 2 m more than twice its breadth. What are the length and the breadth of the pool?
Solution:
Perimeter of the pool = 154 m
Let breadth = x metres
Length is 2 m more than twice its breadth.
Length = 2 (breadth) + 2
= (2x + 2) metres
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 (length + breadth)
2 (length + breadth) = Perimeter
∴ 2[(2x + 2) + x] = 154
∴ 2 [2x + 2 + x] = 154
∴ 2 (3x + 2) = 154
∴ \(\frac{2(3 x+2)}{2}=\frac{154}{2}\) (Dividing both the sides by 2)
∴ 3x + 2 = 77
∴ 3x = 77 – 2 (Transposing 2 to RHS)
∴ 3x = 75
∴ \(\frac{3 x}{3}=\frac{75}{3}\) (Dividing both the sides by 3) x — 25
Breadth = 25 m
Length = 2x + 2
= 2 (25) + 2
= 50 + 2
= 52 m
Thus, the length of the pool is 52 m and its breadth is 25 m.

Question 3.
The base of an isosceles triangle is \(\frac {4}{3}\) cm. The perimeter of the triangle is 4\(\frac {2}{15}\) cm. What is the length of either of the remaining equal sides?
Solution:
Base of an isosceles triangle = \(\frac {4}{3}\) cm
Let the length of each of the equal sides = x cm
Perimeter of the triangle = \(\frac {4}{3}\) + x + x
= \(\frac {4}{3}\) + 2x
Perimeter of the triangle = 4\(\frac {2}{15}\) cm (Given)
∴ \(\frac {4}{3}\) + 2x = 4\(\frac {2}{15}\)
∴ \(\frac {4}{3}\) + 2x = \(\frac {62}{15}\)
∴ 2x = \(\frac{62}{15}-\frac{4}{3}\)(Transposing to RHS)
∴ 2x = \(\frac{62-20}{15}\) (LCM = 15)
∴ 2x = \(\frac {42}{15}\)
∴ \(\frac{2 x}{2}=\frac{42}{15} \times \frac{1}{2}\) (Dividing both the sides by 2)
∴ x = \(\frac {21}{15}\)
∴ x = \(\frac{7 \times 3}{5 \times 3}\)
∴ x = \(\frac {7}{5}\)
∴ x = 1\(\frac {2}{5}\)
Thus, the required length of either of the remaining equal sides is 1\(\frac {2}{5}\) cm.

Question 4.
Sum of two numbers is 95. If one exceeds the other by 15, find the numbers.
Solution:
Let the smaller number be x
∴ The greater number = x + 15
Their sum is 95.
∴ x + (x + 15) = 95
∴ x + x + 15 = 95
∴ 2x + 15 = 95
∴ 2x = 95 – 15 (Transposing 15 to RHS)
∴ 2x = 80
∴ \(\frac{2 x}{2}=\frac{80}{2}\) (Dividing both the sides by 2)
∴ x = 40
The smaller number = x = 40
The greater number = x + 15 = 40 + 15 = 55
Thus, 40 and 55 are the required numbers.

Question 5.
Two numbers are in the ratio 5 : 3. If they differ by 18, what are the numbers ?
Solution:
Ratio of the two numbers = 5 : 3
Let the two numbers be 5x and 3x.
Difference = 18
∴ 5x – 3x = 18
∴ 2x = 18
∴ \(\frac{2 x}{2}=\frac{18}{2}\) (Dividing both the sides by 2)
∴ x = 9
∴ Greater number = 5x = 5 × 9 = 45
Smaller number = 3x = 3 × 9 = 27
Thus, 45 and 27 are the numbers.

Question 6.
Three consecutive integers add up to 51. What are these integers ?
Solution:
Let the consecutive integers be, x, x + 1 and x + 2.
Their sum is 51.
∴ x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) = 51
∴ x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 51
∴ 3x + 3 = 51
∴ 3x = 51 – 3 (Transposing 3 to RHS)
∴ 3x = 48
∴ \(\frac{3 x}{3}=\frac{48}{3}\) (Dividing both the sides by 3)
∴ x = 16
∴ First number = x = 16
Second number = x + 1 = 16 + 1 = 17
Third number = x + 2 = 16 + 2 = 18
Thus, the required consecutive integers are 16, 17 and 18.

Question 7.
The sum of three consecutive multiples of 8 is 888. Find the multiples.
Solution:
Let the three multiples of 8 be x, x + 8, and x + 8 + 8 = x + 16.
Their sum is 888.
∴ x + (x + 8) + (x + 16) = 888
∴ x + x + 8 + x + 16 = 888
∴ 3x + 24 = 888
∴ 3x = 888 – 24 (Transposing 24 to RHS)
∴ 3x = 864
∴ \(\frac{3 x}{3}=\frac{864}{3}\) (Dividing both the sides by 3)
∴ x = 288
∴ First number = x = 288
∴ Second number = x + 8 = 288 + 8 = 296
Third number = x + 16 = 288 + 16 = 304
Thus, the required three consecutives multiples of 8 are 288, 296 and 304.

Question 8.
Three consecutive integers are such that when they are taken in increasing order and multiplied by 2, 3 and 4 respectively, they add up to 74. Find these numbers.
Solution:
Let the three consecutive integers be, x, (x + 1) and (x + 2).
According to the condition,
∴ 2 × (x) + 3 × (x + 1) + 4 × (x + 2) = 74
∴ 2x + 3x + 3 + 4x + 8 = 74
∴ 9x + 11 = 74
∴ 9x = 74 – 11 (Transposing 11 to RHS)
∴ 9x = 63
∴ \(\frac{9 x}{9}=\frac{63}{9}\) (Dividing both the sides by 9)
∴ x = 7
∴ First integer = x – 7
Second integer = x + 1 = 7 + 1 = 8
Third integer = x + 2 = 7 + 2 = 9
Thus, the required integers are 7, 8 and 9.

Question 9.
The ages of Rahul and Haroon are in the ratio 5 : 7. Four years later the sum of their ages will be 56 years. What are their present ages?
Solution:
Ages of Rahul and Haroon are in the ratio of 5 : 7.
Let their present ages be 5x and 7x years.
∴ 4 years later,
the age of Rahul will be 5x + 4 years and the age of Haroon will be 7x + 4 years.
According to the condition,
(5x + 4) + (7x + 4) = 56
∴ 5x + 4 + 7x + 4 = 56
∴ 12x + 8 = 56
∴ 12x = 56 – 8 (Transposing 8 to RHS)
∴ 12x = 48
∴ \(\frac{12 x}{12}=\frac{48}{12}\) (dividing both the sides by 12)
∴ x = 4
Present age of Rahul = 5x = 5 × 4
= 20 years
Present age of Haroon = 7x = 7 × 4
= 28 years
Thus, present age of Rahul is 20 years and that of Haroon is 28 years.

Question 10.
The number of boys and girls in a class are in the ratio 7 : 5. The number of boys is 8 more than the number of girls. What is the total class strength?
Solution:
Number of boys : Number of girls = 7 : 5
Let the number of boys be 7x, and the number of girls be 5x.
According to the condition
7x = 5x + 8
∴ 7x – 5x = 8 (Transposing 5x to LHS)
∴ 2x = 8
∴ \(\frac{2 x}{2}=\frac{8}{2}\) (Dividing both the sides by 2)
∴ x = 4
Number of boys = 7x = 7 × 4 = 28
Number of girls = 5x = 5 × 4 = 20
Total class strength = 28 + 20 = 48
Thus, total class strength is 48.

Question 11.
Bharat’s father is 26 years younger than Bharat’s grandfather and 29 years older than Bharat. The sum of the ages of all the three is 135 years. What is the age of each one of them ?
Solution:
Let the age of Bharat be x years,
His father’s age = (x + 29) years
His grandfather’s age = x + 29 + 26
= (x + 55) years
Sum of their ages is 135 years.
∴ x + (x + 29) + (x + 55) = 135
∴ x + x + 29 + x + 55 = 135
∴ 3x + 84 = 135
∴ 3x = 135 – 84 (Transposing 84 to RHS)
∴ 3x = 51
∴ \(\frac{3 x}{3}=\frac{51}{3}\) (Dividing both the sides by 3)
∴ x = 17
Bharat’s age = x = 17 years
His father’s age = x + 29
= 17 + 29
= 46 years
His grandfather’s age = x + 55
= 17 + 55
= 72 years
Thus, Bharat’s age is 17 years, his father’s age is 46 years and his grandfather’s age is 72 years.

Question 12.
Fifteen years from now Ravi’s age will be four times his present age. What is Ravi’s present age?
Solution:
Let Ravi’s present age be x years.
4 times his present age be 4x years.
15 years from now his age be x + 15 years.
According to the condition, x + 15 = 4x
∴ 4x = x + 15 (Interchanging both the sides)
∴ 4x – x = 15 (Transposing x to LHS)
∴ 3x = 15
∴ \(\frac{3 x}{3}=\frac{15}{3}\) (Dividing both the sides by 3)
∴ x = 5
Thus, Ravi’s present age is 5 years.

Question 13.
A rational number is such that when you multiply it by \(\frac {5}{2}\) an\(\frac {2}{3}\) add g to the product, you get –\(\frac {7}{12}\). What is the number ?
Solution:
Let the required rational number be x.
We get \(\frac{5 x}{2}\) by multiplying x with \(\frac {5}{2}\)
By adding \(\frac {2}{3}\) to it we get \(\frac{5 x}{2}+\frac{2}{3}\)
But, the result is \(\frac {-7}{12}\)
∴ \(\frac{5 x}{2}+\frac{2}{3}=\frac{-7}{12}\)
\(\frac{5 x}{2}=-\frac{7}{12}-\frac{2}{3}\) (Transposing \(\frac {2}{3}\) to RHS)
∴ \(\frac{5 x}{2}=\frac{-7-8}{12}\) (LCM = 12)
∴ \(\frac{5 x}{2}=\frac{-15}{12}\)
∴ \(\frac{5 x}{2} \times \frac{2}{5}=\frac{-15}{12} \times \frac{2}{5}\) (Multiplying both the sides by \(\frac {2}{5}\))
∴ x = –\(\frac {1}{2}\)
Thus, the required rational number is –\(\frac {1}{2}\).

Question 14.
Lakshmi is a cashier in a bank. She has currency notes of denominations ₹ 100, ₹ 50 and ₹ 10, respectively. The ratio of the number of these notes is 2 : 3 : 5. The total cash with Lakshmi is ₹ 4,00,000. How many notes of each denomination does she have?
Solution:
Let the number of
₹ 100 notes be 2x,
₹ 50 notes be 3x,
₹ 10 notes be 5x.
Value of ₹ 100 notes = 2x × 100 = ₹ 200x
Value of ₹ 50 notes = 3x × 50 = ₹ 150x
Value of ₹ 10 notes = 5x × 10 = ₹ 50x
According to the condition, value of
₹ 200x + ₹ 150x + ₹ 50x = ₹ 4,00,000
∴ 200x + 150x + 50x = 4,00,000
∴ 400x = 400000
∴ \(\frac{400 x}{400}=\frac{400000}{400}\)
∴ x = 1000
Number of ₹ 100 notes = 2x
= 2 × 1000
= 2000
Number of ₹ 50 notes = 3x
= 3 × 1000
= 3000
Number of ₹ 10 notes = 5x
= 5 × 1000
– 5000
Thus, Lakshmi has 2000 notes of ₹ 100, 3000 notes of ₹ 50 and 5000 notes of ₹ 10.

Question 15.
I have a total of ₹ 300 in coins of denomination ₹ 1, ₹ 2 and ₹ 5. The number of ₹ 2 coins is 3 times the number of ₹ 5 coins. The total number of coins is 160. How many coins of each denomination are with me?
Solution:
Let the number of ₹ 5 coins be x.
Then, the number of ₹ 2 coins = 3x
Total number of coins = 160
Number of ₹ 1 coins = 160 – 3x – x
= 160 – 4x
Now, value of
₹ 5 coins = ₹ 5 × x = ₹ 5x
₹ 2 coins = ₹ 2 × 3x = ₹ 6x
₹ 1 coins = ₹ 1 × (160 – 4x)
= ₹ (160 – 4x)
According to the condition,
5x + 6x + (160 – 4x) = 300
∴ 5x + 6x + 160 – 4x = 300
∴ 11x – 4x + 160 = 300
∴ 7x + 160 = 300
∴ 7x = 300 – 160 (Transposing 160 to RHS)
7x = 140
∴ \(\frac{7 x}{7}=\frac{140}{7}\) (Dividing both the sides by 7)
∴ x = 20
Number of
₹ 5 coins = x = 20
₹ 2 coins = 3x = 3 × 20 = 60
₹ 1 coins = 160 – 4x
= 160 – 4 × 20
= 160 – 80
= 80
Thus, I have 20 coins of ₹ 5, 60 coins of ₹ 2 and 80 coins of ₹ 1.

Question 16.
The organisers of an essay competition decide that a winner in the competition gets a prize of ₹ 100 and a participant who does not win gets a prize of ₹ 25. The total prize money distributed is ₹ 3000. Find the number of winners, if the total number of participants is 63.
Solution:
Let the number of winners be x
∴ Number of participants who are not winners = (63 – x)
Prize money given to winners = x × ₹ 100 = ₹ 100x
Prize money given to non-winner
participants = ₹ 25 × (63 -x)
= ₹ 25 × 63 – ₹ 25x
= ₹ 1575 – ₹ 25x
According to the condition
100x + 1575 – 25x = 3000
∴ 75x + 1575 = 3000
∴ 75x = 3000 – 1575 (Transposing 1575 to RHS)
∴ 75x = 1425
\(\frac{75 x}{75}=\frac{1425}{75}\) (Dividing both the sides by 75)
∴ x = 19
Thus, the number of winners are 19.

PSEB Solutions for Class 10 Maths Chapter 8 Introduction to Trigonometry Ex 8.4

Question 1.
Express the trigonometric ratios of sin A, sec A and tan A in terms of cot A.
Solution:
By using Identity,
cosec² A – cot² A = 1
⇒ cosec² A = 1 + cot² A
⇒ (cosec A)² = cot² A + 1
⇒ \(\left(\frac{1}{\sin A}\right)^{2}\) = cot² A + 1
⇒ (sin A)² = \(\frac{1}{\cot ^{2} \mathrm{~A}+1}\)
⇒ sin A = ± \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{\cot ^{2} \mathrm{~A}+1}}\)
We reject negative values of sin A for acute angle A.
Therefore, sin A = \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{\cot ^{2} A+1}}\)
By using identity,
sec² A – tan² A = 1
⇒ sec² A = 1 + tan² A
= 1 + \(\frac{1}{\cot ^{2} A}\)
= \(\frac{\cot ^{2} A+1}{\cot ^{2} A}\)

⇒ sec A = \(\sqrt{\frac{\cot ^{2} A+1}{\cot ^{2} A}}\)

tan A = \(\frac{1}{\cot A}\).

Question 2.
Write all the other trigonometric ratios of ∠A in terms of sec A.
Solution:
By using Identity
sin² A + cos² A = 1
⇒ sin² A = 1 – cos² A
= 1 – \(\frac{1}{\sec ^{2} \cdot A}\) = \(\frac{\sec ^{2} A-1}{\sec ^{2} A}\)

⇒ (sin A)² = \(\frac{\sec ^{2} A-1}{\sec ^{2} A}\)

⇒ sin A = ± \(\sqrt{\frac{\sec ^{2} A-1}{\sec ^{2} A}}\)

[Reject – ve sign for acute angle A]
⇒ sin A = ± \(\sqrt{\frac{\sec ^{2} A-1}{\sec ^{2} A}}\)
cos A = \(\frac{1}{\sec A}\)
1 + tan² A = sec² A
tan² A = sec² A – 1
(tan A)² = sec² A – 1
⇒ tan A = ± \(\sqrt{\sec ^{2} A-1}\)
[Reject – ve sign for acute angle A]
i.e., tan A = \(\sqrt{\sec ^{2} A-1}\)
cosec A = \(\frac{1}{\sin A}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\sec ^{2} A-1}}\)

= \(\frac{\sec A}{\sqrt{\sec ^{2} A-1}}\)

cot A = \(\frac{1}{\tan A}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{\sec ^{2} A-1}}\).

Question 3.
Evaluate:
(i) \(\frac{\sin ^{2} 63^{\circ}+\sin ^{2} 27^{\circ}}{\cos ^{2} 17^{\circ}+\cos ^{2} 73^{\circ}}\)

(ii) sin 25° cos 65° + cos 25° sin 65°.
Solution:
(i) \(\frac{\sin ^{2} 63^{\circ}+\sin ^{2} 27^{\circ}}{\cos ^{2} 17^{\circ}+\cos ^{2} 73^{\circ}}\)

= \(\frac{\left\{\sin \left(90^{\circ}-27^{\circ}\right)+\sin ^{2} 27^{\circ}\right\}}{\cos ^{2} 17^{\circ}+\left\{\cos \left(90^{\circ}-17^{\circ}\right)\right\}^{2}}\)
[∵ sin(90 – θ) = cos θ and cos (90 – θ) = sin θ]

= \(\frac{\left\{\cos 27^{\circ}\right\}^{2}+\sin ^{2} 27^{\circ}}{\cos ^{2} 17^{\circ}+\left\{\sin 17^{\circ}\right\}^{2}}\)

= \(\frac{\cos ^{2} 27^{\circ}+\sin ^{2} 27^{\circ}}{\cos ^{2} 17^{\circ}+\sin ^{2} 17^{\circ}}\)
= \(\frac{1}{1}\) = 1.

(ii) sin 25° cos 65° + cos 25° sin 65°
= sin 25° × cos (90° – 25°)
+ cos 25° × sin (90° – 25°)
[∵ cos (90° – θ) = sin θ
sin(90° – θ) = cos θ].
= sin 25° × sin 25° + cos 25° × cos 25°
= sin² 25° + cos² 25° = 1.

= \(\left\{\frac{\cos \theta+\sin \theta+1}{\cos \theta}\right\} \times\left\{\frac{\sin \theta+\cos \theta+1}{\sin \theta}\right\}\)

= \(\begin{array}{r}
\{(\cos \theta+\sin \theta)+1\} \\
\times\{(\cos \theta+\sin \theta)-1\} \\
\hline \cos \theta \times \sin \theta
\end{array}\)

= \(\frac{(\cos \theta+\sin \theta)^{2}-(1)^{2}}{\cos \theta \times \sin \theta}\)

[∵ (a + b) (a – b) = a² – b²]

= \(\frac{\cos ^{2} \theta+\sin ^{2} \theta+2 \cos \theta \sin \theta-1}{\cos \theta \times \sin \theta}\)

= \(\frac{1+2 \cos \theta \sin \theta-1}{\cos \theta \sin \theta}\) = 2.

Option (C) is correct.

(iii) Consider, (sec A + tan A) (1 – sin A)
= \(\left(\frac{1}{\cos A}+\frac{\sin A}{\cos A}\right)\) × (1 – sin A)

= \(\frac{(1+\sin A)}{\cos A}\) × (1 – sin A)

= \(\frac{(1+\sin A)(1-\sin A)}{\cos A}\)

= \(\frac{(1)^{2}-(\sin A)^{2}}{\cos A}=\frac{1-\sin ^{2} A}{\cos A}=\frac{\cos ^{2} A}{\cos A}\)
[∵ cos² A = 1 – sin² A]
= cos A.

= tan² A.
Option (D) is correct.

[Hint : Write the expression in terms of sin θ and cos θ]

(iv) \(\frac{1+\sec A}{\sec A}=\frac{\sin ^{2} A}{1-\cos A}\)
[Hint: Simplify L.H.S. and R.H.S. separately]

(v) \(\frac{\cos A-\sin A+1}{\cos A+\sin A-1}\) using the identity cosec² A = 1 + cot² A.

(vi) \(\sqrt{\frac{1+\sin A}{1-\sin A}}\) = sec A + tan A

(vii) \(\frac{\sin \theta-2 \sin ^{3} \theta}{2 \cos ^{3} \theta-\cos \theta}\) = tan θ

(ix) (cosec A – sin A) (sec A – cos A) = \(\frac{1}{\tan A+\cot A}\)

(x) \(\left(\frac{1+\tan ^{2} A}{1+\cot A^{2}}\right)=\left(\frac{1-\tan A}{1-\cot A}\right)^{2}\) = tan² A.

Solution:
(i) L.H.S. = (cosec θ – cot θ)²
= \(\left\{\frac{1}{\sin \theta}-\frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}\right\}^{2}\)

= \(\left(\frac{1-\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}\right)^{2}=\frac{(1-\cos \theta)^{2}}{\sin ^{2} \theta}\)
Using identity, sin² θ + cos² θ = 1
⇒ sin² θ = 1 – cos² θ
= \(\frac{(1-\cos \theta)^{2}}{1-\cos ^{2} \theta}\)
= \(\)
[∵ a² – b² = (a + b) (a – b)]

= \(\)

∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.
Hence, (cosec θ – cot θ)² = \(\frac{1-\cos \theta}{1+\cos \theta}\)

(ii) L.H.S. = \(\frac{\cos A}{1+\sin A}+\frac{1+\sin A}{\cos A}\)

= \(\frac{2}{\cos A}\) = cos A
∴L.H.S. = R.H.S.
Hence, \(\frac{\cos A}{1+\sin A}+\frac{1+\sin A}{\cos A}\) = 2 sec A.

(iii) L.H.S. = \(\frac{\tan \theta}{1+\cot \theta}+\frac{\cot \theta}{1-\tan \theta}\) = 1 + sec θ cosec θ

= \(\frac{\left(\frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}\right)}{\left(1-\frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}\right)}+\frac{\left(\frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta}\right)}{\left(1-\frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}\right)}\)

= \(\frac{1+\sin \theta \cos \theta}{\cos \theta \sin \theta}=\frac{1}{\cos \theta \sin \theta}+1\)

= 1 + \(\left(\frac{1}{\cos \theta}\right)\left(\frac{1}{\sin \theta}\right)\) = 1 + sec θ cosec θ
∴L.H.S. = R.H.S.
Hence, \(\frac{\tan \theta}{1+\cot \theta}+\frac{\cot \theta}{1-\tan \theta}\) = 1 + sec θ cosec θ

(iv) L.H.S. = \(\frac{1+\sec A}{\sec A}=\frac{\sin ^{2} A}{1-\cos A}\)
= \(\frac{1+\frac{1}{\cos A}}{\frac{1}{\cos A}}\)
= 1 + cos A …………….(1)
R.H.S = \(\frac{\sin ^{2} A}{1-\cos A}\)
(∵ 1 – cos² A = sin² A.)
= \(\frac{1-\cos ^{2} A}{1-\cos A}\)

= \(\frac{(1+\cos A)(1-\cos A)}{(1-\cos A)}\)

= 1 + cos A. …………….(2)
From (1) and (2) it is clear that
∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.
Hence, \(\frac{1+\sec A}{\sec A}=\frac{\sin ^{2} A}{1-\cos A}\).

(v) L.H.S. = \(\frac{\cos A-\sin A+1}{\cos A+\sin A-1}\) using the identity cosec² A

= cosec A + cot A
= R.H.S
∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.
Hence, \(\frac{\cos A-\sin A+1}{\cos A+\sin A-1}\) using the identity cosec² A = 1 + cot² A.

(vi) L.H.S. = \(\sqrt{\frac{1+\sin A}{1-\sin A}}\)

= \(\sqrt{\frac{(1+\sin A)(1+\sin A)}{(1-\sin A)(1+\sin A)}}\)

= \(\sqrt{\frac{(1+\sin A)^{2}}{(1)^{2}-(\sin A)^{2}}}\)

= \(\sqrt{\frac{(1+\sin A)^{2}}{1-\sin ^{2} A}}=\sqrt{\frac{(1+\sin A)^{2}}{\cos ^{2} A}}\)

= \(\frac{1+\sin A}{\cos A}=\frac{1}{\cos A}+\frac{\sin A}{\cos A}\)
= sec A + tan A
∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.
Hence, \(\sqrt{\frac{1+\sin A}{1-\sin A}}\) = sec A + tan A.

(vii) L.H.S. = \(\frac{\sin \theta-2 \sin ^{3} \theta}{2 \cos ^{3} \theta-\cos \theta}\)

∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.
Hence, \(\frac{\sin \theta-2 \sin ^{3} \theta}{2 \cos ^{3} \theta-\cos \theta}\) = tan θ

(viii) L.H.S. = (sin A + cosec A)² + (cos A + sec A)²
= (sin² A + cosec² A + 2 sin A × cosec A) + {cos² A + sec² A
+ 2 cos A × sec A)
= [sin² A + co² A + 2sin A × \(\frac{1}{\sin A}\)] + [cos² A + sec² A + 2 cosA × \(\frac{1}{\cos A}\)]
= (sin² A + cosec² A + 2) + (cos² A + sec² A + 2)
= 2 + 2 + (sin² A + cos² A) + sec² A + cosec² A
= 2 + 2 + 1 + 1 + tan² A + 1 + cot² A
= 7 tan² A + cot² A
∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.
Hence, (sin A + cosec A)² + (cos A + sec A)² = 7 + tan² A + cot² A.

(ix) L.H.S. = (cosec A – sin A) (sec A – cos A)

From (1) and (2), it is clear that
L.H.S. = R.H.S.
Hence, (cosec A – sin A) (sec A – cos A) = \(\frac{1}{\tan A+\cot A}\)

(x) \(\left(\frac{1+\tan ^{2} A}{1+\cot A^{2}}\right)\)
(∵ 1 + tan² A = sec² A
and 1 + cot² A = cosec² A)

From (1) and (2), it is clear that
LH.S. = R.H.S.
Hence, \(\left(\frac{1+\tan ^{2} A}{1+\cot A^{2}}\right)=\left(\frac{1-\tan A}{1-\cot A}\right)^{2}\) = tan² A.

x – 2 = 7
∴ x = 7 + 2 (Transposing – 2 to RHS)
∴ x = 9

Question 2.
y + 3 = 10
Solution:
y + 3 = 10
∴ y = 10 – 3 (Transposing 3 to RHS)
∴ y = 7

Question 3.
6 = z + 2
Solution:
6 = z + 2
∴ z + 2 = 6 (Interchanging both the sides)
∴ z = 6 – 2 (Transposing 2 to RHS)
∴ z = 4.

Question 4.
\(\frac {3}{7}\) + x = \(\frac {17}{7}\)
Solution:
\(\frac {3}{7}\) + x = \(\frac {17}{7}\)
∴ x = \(\frac{17}{7}-\frac{3}{7}\) (Transposing \(\frac {3}{7}\) to RHS)
∴ x = \(\frac{17-3}{7}\)
∴ x = \(\frac {14}{7}\)
∴ x = 2

Question 5.
6x = 12
Solution:
6x = 12
∴ \(\frac{6 x}{6}=\frac{12}{6}\) (Dividing both the sides by 6)
∴ x = 2

Question 6.
\(\frac{t}{5}\) = 10
Solution:
\(\frac{t}{5}\) = 10
∴ \(\frac{t}{5}\) × 5 = 10 × 5 (Multiplying both the sides by 5)
∴ t = 50

Question 7.
\(\frac{2 x}{3}\) = 15
Solution:
\(\frac{2 x}{3}\) = 15
∴ \(\frac{2 x}{3} \times \frac{3}{2}=18 \times \frac{3}{2}\) (Multiplying both the sides by \(\frac {3}{2}\))

Question 8.
1.6 = \(\frac{y}{1.5}\)
Solution:
1.6 = \(\frac{y}{1.5}\)
∴ 1.6 × 1.5 = \(\frac{y}{1.5}\) × 1.5 (Multiplying both the sides by 1.5)
