1) Draw PQRS Square, Mark Point T on PS which is bisecting PS, Mark U on QR which is bisecting QR. 2) Join SQ where SQ intersects TU at 'O' 3) Now you can find two triangles STO, SPQ so prove both the triangles are similar( ang STO = ang SPQ corresponding, ang TSO = ang PSQ common angles ) 4) as we know...

As we know the triangle, parallelogram standing on the same side and between same parallel lines then ar(Triangle) = 1/2.ar(parallelogram) and ar(parallagoram) = 2, ar(triangle) = 2 (15) cm.sq ar of Parallelogram ABPD = 30cm.sq

Let A, B and C be the vertices of the triangle with B and C as the base vertices. If the external angle at C is 100 degrees then the angle C is 80 degrees (because sum of adjacent angles on a straight line is 180 degrees). Similarly if the external angle at B is 120 degrees then the angle B is 60 degrees....

Similarly if the external angle at B is 120 degrees then the angle B is 60 degrees. So the angle A is 40 degrees. i.e. 180 - (80 + 60). read less

Let the apex angle be A , moving clock wise the other angle be B and the let the third angle be C A+C=100 A+B=120 A+B+C=180 There are three variables and 3 equations Therefore B=80 C=60 A=40

So the interior angles are 80 and 60 respectively and the third angle is (180-80-60) = 40 Ans

If a right circular cone has radius 4 cm and slant height 5 cm then what is its volume?
apply pythagoras theorem (height of cone)^2 + 4^2=5^2 height of cone = 3 volume of cone = 1/3*22/7*r^2*height of cone volume of cone = 50.27 cm^3
