AB/LM = p(ABC)/p(LMN) AB/8 = 60/48 AB = 60*8/48 AB = 10cm.

Perimeter Ratio is 60:48 Similar side Ratio will also be the same So 60:48 :: x:8 Gives x = 60x 8/48 = 10 cm Ans

suppose length of AB =X . IN similar triangle ABC :LMN =60:48 =AB:LM =X :8 ,OR 60/48 = X/8 , OR X/8 = 5/4 , Or x=10 .AB =10cm answer.

Cards, marked with numbers 5 to 50, are placed in a box and mixed throughly. A card is drawn from teh box at random. Find the probability that the number on the taken out card is: (i) a prime number less than 10. (ii) a number which is a perfect square." "
The sample size is 46 (i) The prime numbers less than 10 are 5 and 7. so the probability is 2/46 or 1/23. (ii) The perfect squares are 9,16,25, 36 and 49-five in all so the probability is 5/46

Find the number of terms of the A.P: 7, 13, 19, ...., 205?
The first term, t1=a = 7. The common difference, b=13 - 7=6. Last term or the nth term, tn=a + (n-1)b = 205. So, we have, 7 + (n - 1)6 = 205 --> (n - 1) = (205 - 7)/6 = 33 --> n = 34. Answer: Number of terms is 34.
