Answer 3.
a. Sn = 5n+ 2n
The sum of the first two terms,
S= 5 x 22 + 2 x 2 = 20 + 4 = 24
b. The first term S1 = 5 x 12 + 2 x 1 = 7
The second term = 24 – 7 = 17

Answer 4.
Arrange the data in assenting order 8, 9, 11, 14, 15, 17, 18, 20, 22, 25
Here Median = \(\frac { 15+17 }{ 2 } \)

Answer 5.
a. For the sequence 12, 23, 34…….
x= 12, d = x2– x1
= 23 – 12 = 11
∴ 10th term = x10= x+ 9d = 12 + (9 x 11)
= 12 + 99 = 111
b. Any term of the arithmetic sequence divided by common difference will have same remainder.
Here x= 12, d = 11 x1/d = 12/11
Quotient = 1, Remainder = 1 If we divide 1111 by the common difference 11 we get quotient = 101 and remainder = 0.
1111 is divisible by 11 we will not get the same remainder hence 1111 is not a term of this sequence.

Answer 6.
Kerala SSLC Maths Model Question Papers with Answers Paper 2 image - 12
a. Circumcircle of all the right angled triangles will be the midpoint of hypotnuse.
AB/sin 40 = AC.
i.e., AB/sin 40 = 6
∴ AB = sin 40 x 6
sin 30 = 1/2. Hence s
in 30 x 6 = 1/2 x 6 = 3 .
sin 40 > sin 30 Hence
sin 40 x 6 > 3 .
i.e.,AB > 3
∴ Opposite side of the angle 40° is greater than 3 cm.
Kerala SSLC Maths Model Question Papers with Answers Paper 2 image - 13
The minimum distance from B to the line drawn through A is the perpendicular distance. From the above problem we can see that when the angle is 40°, the side opposite to 40° angle is greater than 3 cm
Hence we cannot construct a triangle if the side opposite to 40° angle is 3 cm C

Kerala SSLC Maths Model Question Papers with Answers Paper 2 image - 27

Answer 20.
p(x) = x3 + x2 + x + 1
a. If p (x) is divided by (x – 1), we get re­mainder as p(1).
p (1) =(1)3 + (1)2 + (1) + 1
= 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 4
∴ p (x) is divided by (x – 1), we get
re­mainder = 4

b. If p(x) is divided by (x + 1), we get  remainder as p(-1).
p (-1) = (-1)3 + (-1)2 + (-1)+1
= -1 + 1 + – 1 + 1=0
p(x) is divided by (x + 1), we get
remainder = 0

c. Let the first degree polynomial=ax+b
Then p(x)= x+ x+ x + 1 -ax -b
If x + 1 is a factor of the polynomial
p(x), then p(-1) = 0 hence
(-1)3 + (-1)2 + (-1) + 1-( (ax – 1) + b)
= 0
= -1 + 1 + -1 + 1 – (-a + b) = 0
a – b = 0………….. (1)
If x -1 is a factor of the polynomial p(x), then p (1) = 0 hence
(1)3 + (1)+ (1) + 1- ((a x 1) + b) = 0
= 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 – (a + b)
= 0 4 – (a + b) = 0
– a – b = -4………… (2)
On solving
a – b = 0……………….. (1)
– a – b = -4……………. (2)
(1) + (2) → -2b = -4
b = -4/-2
∴ b = 2
Substitute the value of b=2 in equa­tion (1)
a – 2 = 0
∴ a = 0 + 2 = 2
Hence first degree polynomial = (ax + b) = (2x + 2)

Answer 21.
a. Here x1 = 6, S6 = 66
S6 = (x1 + x6) x 3
6/2 (first term + last term) = 66
3 (6  + 6th term) = 66
6 + 6th term = 22
6th term = 22 -6  = 16

b. 6th term = x = x, + 5d
16 = 6 + 5d
5d = 16 – 6 = 10
d = 10/5 = 2
Common difference of the seq­uence = 2

c. First six terms of the sequence
= 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16

Answer 22.
Kerala SSLC Maths Model Question Papers with Answers Paper 2 image - 28
a. Slope of the line which joins the
points (1, 4) and (5, 6)
= (y2 – y1) (x2 – x1)
(6 – 4) / (5 – 1)
= 2/4 = 1/2
If the x coordinates are increased by 1 then the y coordinates are in­creased by 1/2.
Let a point on the x axis be 1, then the coordinates of y is increased by A.
If the x coordinate is 3 then the y coordinate =4 + 1 = 5

b. Let x be the coordinate of a point having y coordinate 3. Slope of the line which joins the line (1,4) and (x, 3)
= (y2 – y1) (x2 – x1)
1/2 = (3 – 4) / (x – 1)
1/2 = -1 / (x – 1)
1( x – 1) = -1 x 2, x – 1 =-2
∴ x = -2 + 1 = -1
If they coordinate is 3 then the x coordinate is-1.

c. The difference in y coordinate is half the difference in x coordinates. Hence its ratio=2:1

d. Let (x,y)be a point on the line, then the slope of the line which joins the points (1, 4) and (x, y)
= (y2 – y1(x– x1)
∴ 1/2 = (y- 4) / (x-1)
1(x -1 ) = 2(y – 4)
x – 1 = 2y – 8
x – 2y = – 8 + 1 = -7
x – 2y + 7 = 0

Answer 23.
(i) ΔABC  is a right angled triangle.
(ii) Equation of circle:
x2 + (y – 1)+ (x – 5)2 + (y – 4)2 = 5+ 32
x2 + y– 2y+ 1 + x2– 10x
+ 25 + y2 -5y + 16 = 34
2x2 + 2y2 – 10x – 10y + 8 = 0
x2 + y2 – 5x – 5y + 4 = 0
(iii) The point that can cut the x- axis
x2 – 5x + 4 = 0
(x – 4) (x – 1) = 0
x = 1  or  4

Height of the building PQ = 10 m
Height of the telephone tower is AB
Height of the man BC=1.8 m.
In Δ CQD
DC = DQ x tan 40 (DQ = AP)
= AP x tan 40 (AP = x)
= x tan 40 = 0.839 1x
In Δ CPA
AC = AP x tan 60 = x x √3 x = 1.732x
PQ = AC – CD = 0.8929x
x = \(\frac { 10 }{ 0.8929 } \) = 11.19 ( PQ=10m)
AC= √3 x = 1.732 x 11.19 = 19.4
AB= 19.4-1.8= 17.6 m
Distance AP = x = 11.19m

iii. ∠P=IO°
(In Δ ORS ∠QSR=30°, ∠SQR= 40° Sum of the total angle of a triangle is 180°, therefore other angle are
∠QRS = 180 – (30 + 40) = 180 – 7o = 110°
∠P= (180 -∠QRS ( = 180 – 1 10 = 70° )
iv. ∠QOR = 60°
(The central angle of an arc of a circle to be double to angle made by the arc at any point on the alternate arc)
∠QOS = 2 x ∠P= 20 x 70 = 140°)
