ANSWERS

Answer 1.
Given 25th term = 140 and 27 h term is 166 a + 24d = 140 and a + 26d = 166 Solve this equations for a and d
Then we get d = 13 and a = -172
35th term = a+34 d=-172+34 x 13
= -172 + 442 = 270

Answer 5.
Kerala SSLC Maths Model Question Papers with Answers Paper 3 image - 15
Draw a circle radius OB = 4 cm. Make an angle ∠BOC = 130° (2 ∠B = 2 x 65 = 130) and ∠AOC =156° and marks B and A respectively. Joint AB, BC, CA is the required construction.

Answer 6.
Consider BP = x cm
AP = AB + BP ⇒ 18 + x
AP X BP = PQ2
⇒ (18 + x) x = 122
⇒(18x  + x2) = 144
⇒ x2 + 18x – 144 = 0
⇒ (x-6) (x + 24) = 0
ie., x = 6 or x = -24; -24 is rejected because -24 is not become the measurement of a line.
Hence x = 6
BP = 6 cm

Answer 7.

Answer 8.
From the figure OP = 4 cm (given radius)
ie.,OP = OB = 4 cm
OA = OB + AB = 4 + 3 = 7 cm
ΔAPO be right angled triangle, right angle at P (tangent theorem) By Pythagoras,
AP– OA2 = 7– 4= 49 – 16 = 33
AP =  √33

Answer 9.

Answer 10.
Given P(x) = x2 – 9x + 20
Product of two first degree polynomial
= (x – 5) (x – 4)
Solution of the polynomial, Given P(x) = 0
ie., (x – 5) (x – 4)=0 (Using zero factor theorem)
Either x – 5 = 0 or x – 4 = 0
ie., x = 5 or x = 4
Hence the solution be 5 or 4

Answer 11.

Answer 12.
Given the sum of the first five term of an AP =45
Common difference = 4
Third term is its middle term
sum = middle term x number of term
Kerala SSLC Maths Model Question Papers with Answers Paper 3 image - 21
ie., Second term=third term – common difference = 9 – 4 = 5
First term = Second term – common difference = 5 – 4 = 1
The first two terms = 1 and 5.
If the sum of the first five term of an AP is 45, then the third term should be 9 but the com­mon difference may be changed. In this con­dition we can make many AP’s.
Hence The AP = 5, 7, 9, 11, 13,………
or = 3, 6, 9, 12, 15,………….
