Question 9.
An angle is 30° more than one-half of its complement. Find the angle.
Solution:
Let required angle = x
Its complement angle = 90° – x
According to the condition,
x = \(\frac { 90-x }{ 2 }\) + 30
⇒ 2x = 90 – x + 60
⇒ 2x + x = 150
⇒ 3x = 150 150°
⇒ x = 50°
Hence required angle = 50°

Question 10.
In the given figure, find the value of x.
ML Aggarwal Class 7 ICSE Maths Model Question Paper 6 Q10.1
Solution:
In the given figure,
∠BAC = ∠EAF (Vertically opposite angles) = 70°
ML Aggarwal Class 7 ICSE Maths Model Question Paper 6 Q10.2
But Ext. ∠ACD = ∠BAC + ∠B
125° = 70° + x
⇒ x = 125° – 70° = 55°
x = 55°

ML Aggarwal Class 7 ICSE Maths Model Question Paper 6 Q13.1
Solution:
In ||gm ABCD
AB = 15 cm, BC = 10 cm
Perpendicular DE = 8 cm and DF = ?
ML Aggarwal Class 7 ICSE Maths Model Question Paper 6 Q13.2
Now area of ||gm ABCD = Base × Height
= AB × DE = 15 × 8 cm= 120 cm2
If base BC = 10 cm
Then height DF = \(\frac { Area }{ Base }\) = \(\frac { 120 }{ 10 }\) = 12 cm

Question 14.
Find the mean age of six students whose ages (in years) are:
15, 13, 16, 13, 14, 16.
Solution:
Mean age of 15, 13, 16, 13, 14, 16
= \(\frac { 15+13+16+13+14+16 }{ 6 }\)
= \(\frac { 87 }{ 6 }\)
= 14.5 years

Section – C

Question numbers 15 to 24 are of 4 marks each.
Question 15.
In the given figure, lines l and m are parallel. Find the values of x, y, and z.
ML Aggarwal Class 7 ICSE Maths Model Question Paper 6 Q15.1
Solution:
In the given l || m
x = 65° (Alternate Angles)
Similarly z = y
ML Aggarwal Class 7 ICSE Maths Model Question Paper 6 Q15.2
But x + 45° + z = 180° (Angle on one side of a line)
⇒ 65° + 45° + z = 180°
⇒ 110° + z = 180°
⇒ z = 180°- 110° = 70°
y = z = 70°
x = 65°, y = 70°, z = 70°

Question 16.
In the given figure, BC = AC. Find the value of x.
ML Aggarwal Class 7 ICSE Maths Model Question Paper 6 Q16.1
Solution:
In the given figure,
BC = AC, ∠C = x, ∠ABD = 155°
∠CAB = ∠CBA
But ∠ABC + ∠ABD = 180° (Linear pair)
⇒∠ABC + 155°= 180°
⇒ ∠ABC = 180° – 155° = 25°
⇒ ∠CAB = ∠ABC = 25°
But ∠CAB + ∠ABC + ∠ACB = 180° (Angles of a triangle)
⇒ 25° + 25° + x° = 180°
⇒ x + 50° = 180°
⇒ x = 180° – 50° = 130°

Question 17.
If the lengths of the two sides of a triangle are 6 cm and 8.5 cm, then what can be the length of the third side?
Solution:
Length of two sides of a triangle are 6 cm and 8.5 cm.
Third side will be less than (6 + 8.5) = 14.5 cm
and greater than (8.5 – 6) = 2.5 cm

ML Aggarwal Class 7 ICSE Maths Model Question Paper 6 Q18.1
Solution:
In ∆ABC, AD is perpendicular bisector of BC
BD = DC and ∠ADB = ∠ADC = 90°
ML Aggarwal Class 7 ICSE Maths Model Question Paper 6 Q18.2
Now in ∆ABD and ∆ACD
BD = DC (D is the mid-point of BC)
∠ADB = ∠ADC (Each 90°)
AB = AD (Common)
∆ABD = ∆ACD (SAS criterion)
AB = AC (c.p.c.t.)
∆ABC is an isosceles triangle.

ABCD is a rectangle whose length (l) = 20 cm
Breadth (b) = 14 cm
Two semicircles have been cut out from
the breadth sides whose radius = \(\frac { 14 }{ 2 }\) = 7 cm
(i) Area of shaded portion
= Area of rectangle – Area of two semicircle
= l × b – 2 × \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) πr2
= 20 × 14 – 2 × \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) × \(\frac { 22 }{ 7 }\) × 7 × 7
= 280 – 154= 126 cm2
(ii) Perimeter of shaded portion = 2 × l + 2πr
= 2 × 20 + 2 × \(\frac { 22 }{ 7 }\) × 7
= 40 + 44
= 84 cm

Section – D

Question numbers 25 to 29 are of 6 marks each.
Question 25.
In the given figure, all measurements are in centimeters. If AD is perpendicular to BC, find the length of B.
ML Aggarwal Class 7 ICSE Maths Model Question Paper 6 Q25.1
Solution:
In the figure, AC = 25, BC = 28,
AD ⊥ BC and AD = 15
Now in right ∆ADC
AC2 = AD2 + DC2 (Pythagoras Theorem)
⇒ (25)2 = 152 + DC2
⇒ 625 = 225 + DC2
⇒ DC2 = 625 – 225 = 400
⇒ DC2 = (20)2
⇒ DC = 20 units
BC = 28 units
BD = BC – CD = 28 – 20 = 8 units
Now in right ∆ABD
AB2 = AD2 + BD2 = 152 + 82 = 225 + 64 = 289 = (17)2
⇒ AB = 17 units

Question 26.
In the adjoining figure, show that ΔABC = ΔDBC. Hence, find the values of x and y.
ML Aggarwal Class 7 ICSE Maths Model Question Paper 6 Q26.1
Solution:
In the given figure
∆ABC = ∆DBC
∠ABC = ∠DBC
⇒ 2y +6 = 56°
⇒ 2y = 56° – 6° = 50°
y = \(\frac { 50 }{ 2 }\) = 25°
and ∠ABC = 56°
∠ACB = ∠BCD = 40°
But in ∆DBC
∠CBD + ∠BCD + ∠BDC = 180° (Angle of a triangle)
56° + x + 40° = 180°
⇒ x + 96° = 180°
⇒ x = 180° – 96° = 84°
x = 84°, y = 25°

Question 27.
By using ruler and compasses only, construct a triangle ABC with BC = 7.5 cm, ∠B = 60° and ∠A = 90°.
Solution:
Steps of construction:
In ∆ABC
∠B = 60°, ∠A = 90°;
then ∠C = 180° – (60° + 90°)
⇒∠C = 180° – 150° = 30°
(i) Take a line segment BC = 7.5 cm
(ii) At B, draw a ray BX making an angle of 60° and at C,
draw a ray CY making an angle of 30°
which intersect each other at A.
∆ABC is the required triangle whose ∠A will be 90°.
ML Aggarwal Class 7 ICSE Maths Model Question Paper 6 Q27.1

Question 28.
Anjali took a wire of length 88 cm and bent it into the shape of a circle. Find the area enclosed by that circle. If the same wire is bent in the shape of a square, then find the area enclosed by that square. Which shape encloses more area and by how much?
Take π = \(\frac { 22 }{ 7 }\)
Solution:
Length of wire = 88 cm
By bending it into a shape of a circle, the circumference of circle = 88 cm
ML Aggarwal Class 7 ICSE Maths Model Question Paper 6 Q28.1
By bending the wire into the shape of a square.
Perimeter of square = 88 cm
Then side = \(\frac { Perimeter }{ 4 }\) = \(\frac { 88 }{ 4 }\) = 22 cm
and area = (Side)2 = (22)2 cm2 = 484 cm2
We see that area of circle is greater than that of square.
Difference = 616 – 484 = 132 cm2
