Study Notes

  • The video covers solutions for 8th standard scholarship examination mathematics paper 1, focusing on questions 51-74.
  • Question 51: Two rectangular grounds have areas 1541 square meters and 759 square meters. They share the same grid length; find the ground breadth.
    • Both grounds have the same breadth and different lengths.
    • Find the highest common factor of the two areas to determine the breadth (1541 and 759).
    • The highest common factor is 23; therefore, the breadth is 23 meters.
  • Question 52: Find the value of M in the equation 17 × 19 × 4 ÷ M = 161.5.
    • The equation simplifies to 17 × 19 × 4 × 2 = 323.
    • The factors of 323 are 1, 3, 11, 13, 37, 67, and 323.
    • Given options, select 23 and 67. Divide 1541 by 23 to get 67; therefore, option 3 is the correct answer.
  • Question 55: Find the irrational number from the given options.
    • Pi is a rational number, so it is not an irrational number.
    • The correct answer is option 3, which is the square root of 2.
  • Question 56: Four numbers P, Q, R, and S are in proportion.
    • Given statement: P/R = Q/S.
    • If this statement is correct, then P = RQ and Q = PS.
    • Correct options: P/R = Q/S and P/S = Q/R.
  • Question 57: Maria's age is X years. Find her age 10 years before.
    • Given equation: Y = X + 10.
    • The correct answer is Y - X - 10.
  • Question 58: Find the percentage of 31.25.
    • 31.25% equals 0.3125.
    • Try each option and see which one matches 0.3125.
    • Option 1, 0.3125, is the correct answer.
  • Question 59: In triangle TPQ, angle TPQ is a right angle.
    • The orthocenter of a right angle triangle is located on the vertex containing the right angle.
    • Correct options: TP is perpendicular to QR and T is perpendicular to QR.
  • Question 61: Find the duration of a school trip.
    • The trip started at 6:30 AM on Saturday and ended at 8:50 PM on Sunday.
    • Calculate the hours from 6:30 AM Saturday to 6:30 AM Sunday and from 6:30 AM Sunday to 8:50 PM Sunday.
    • The total trip duration is 36 hours.- The text discusses various mathematical questions and solutions.
  • Question 1: A trip lasted from 6:30 PM Saturday to 6:15 PM Sunday, with an additional 45 minutes. The trip ended up taking 37 whole hours.
  • Question 2: A square of side length 8 centimeters is cut into smaller squares of size 1 centimeter at each corner. The difference in perimeter between the original square and the one with corners cut is calculated to be zero.
  • Question 3: Two lines intersect at point O. The first statement that lines AB and BA are the same is incorrect. The second statement that lines AB and DC intersect at O is correct.
  • Question 4: The correct relation of variation between the areas of two circles with radii R and S is R^2 : S^2 = 2 : 1.
  • Question 66: The pair of prime numbers whose sum is more than the sum of all prime numbers under 26 and is a difference of two primes is 71 and 73, with a sum of 144.
  • Question 67: The angles of a quadrilateral ABCD, given the ratio of their measures as 7:S:4:2, are found to be 70 degrees, 120 degrees, 60 degrees, and 75 degrees, respectively. The figure is not a rectangle, parallelogram, or rhombus.
  • Question 68: The smallest number whose remainder is 1 when divided by every one-digit prime number is 211.
  • Question 69: An investor earns different amounts of interest with simple and compound interest over three years with an initial investment of ₹5000. The interest earned with compound interest is ₹16,165.50, while the interest earned with simple interest is ₹5,000.
  • Question 71: The value of 4.9^3 + 2.1^3 divided by 4.9^2 is 7.0.
  • Question 72: The perimeter of a regular hexagon with each side measuring 14 centimeters is calculated by finding the perimeter of half a circle with a diameter of 14 centimeters, which is 13.2. The total perimeter of the hexagon is 3*13.2 = 39.6 centimeters.
  • Question 73: The area of a trapezium with bases PS and QS, height H, and legs PR and QR, is calculated using the formula A = (1/2)(Bh + b*h), where the base B = PS = QS, and the height H = 4. The area of the trapezium is 32 square units.
  • Instead of investing ₹3000 with simple interest for 2.5 years, investing ₹4000 with simple interest for 2 years would result in earning ₹25 more interest. The rate of interest is 5%.
