It looks like you have a
comprehensive worksheet covering geometry, constructions, and 3D shapes. Here is solution to the problems for you, including the calculation steps for the math
problems.
Part
1: Calculations & Concepts
1. Using Ruler and a pair of
Compass, draw the following special angles: (a) 90∘, (b) 135∘,
(c) 45∘, (d) 150∘,
(e) 15∘
- Answer:
(These are construction tasks). To do these, start with a straight line
and a semi-circle. For example, 90∘
is found by bisecting the 180∘
straight angle. 45∘ is the bisector of 90∘.
135∘ is the bisector of the angle between 90∘ and 180∘.
2. Three angles of a quadrilateral
are equal and the fourth angle is 120∘.
Find the measure of the angles.
- Answer:
The sum of angles in a quadrilateral is 360∘.
Let the three equal angles be x. 3x+120∘=360∘ 3x=240∘
x=80∘ (The three angles are each 80∘).
3. Draw a right bisector for a line
segment measuring 6.5 cm.
- Answer:
(Construction task). Draw line AB=6.5 cm. Use a compass set to more
than half the length, draw arcs from A and B above and below the line.
Connect the intersection points of the arcs.
4. Draw, label and explain the
following: (a) Tetrahedron, (b) Triangular Prism
- Answer:
* Tetrahedron: A triangular pyramid. It has 4 faces, all of which
are triangles.
- Triangular Prism: A prism with two triangular bases and three
rectangular sides.
5. A quadrilateral has three angles
measuring 80∘. Find the fourth angle.
- Answer:
360∘−(80∘+80∘+80∘)=360∘−240∘=120∘.
6. Write the number of faces, edges
and vertices for the following:
| Shape | Faces | Edges | Vertices | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Cuboid
| 6 | 12 | 8 | | Prism (Triangular) | 5 | 9 | 6 | | Square Pyramid
| 5 | 8 | 5 | | Cylinder | 3 | 2 | 0 |
7. The angles are in the ratio of 3:5:7:9.
Find the measure of the angles.
- Answer:
Sum of ratios =3+5+7+9=24. Total degrees =360∘.
- Angle 1: (3/24)×360=45∘
- Angle 2: (5/24)×360=75∘
- Angle 3: (7/24)×360=105∘
- Angle 4: (9/24)×360=135∘
8. Draw a line AB. Take a point P
outside it. Draw a line passing through P perpendicular to AB.
- Answer:
(Construction task). Place compass on P, draw an arc cutting AB at two
points. From those two points, draw arcs below AB that intersect. Connect P
to that intersection.
9. Draw and Differentiate between
Convex and Concave quadrilateral.
- Answer:
In a Convex quadrilateral, all interior angles are less than 180∘. In a Concave quadrilateral, one interior angle
is greater than 180∘ (a reflex angle).
10. When can a square be considered
as a special rhombus?
- Answer:
A square is a special rhombus when it has four right angles (90∘).
(Since a rhombus already has four equal sides, adding right angles makes
it a square).

2: Multiple Choice & Shapes
11. What is the correct name for the
shape? (Image shows adjacent sides equal)
- Answer: d. Kite
12. Which one of these
quadrilaterals has one pair of opposite, parallel sides?
- Answer: b. Trapezium
13. How does a rhombus differ from a
parallelogram?
- Answer: a. All sides are equal in length
14. What makes an isosceles
trapezium different to an 'ordinary' trapezium?
- Answer: b. Non-parallel lines of equal length (and a. A line of symmetry is also correct).
15. A 3-D shape has been opened up
to a flat 2-D shape (a net) and is shown below? What was the 3-D shape?
- Answer: b. Cylinder
(The net shows a rectangle and two circles).
16. Which two mathematical shapes
could you combine to make this building?
- Answer: c. Cone and cylinder
17. Draw a line segment AB measuring
6.4 cm. Take a point P on AB such that AP is 3.2 cm. Draw a line
passing through P perpendicular to AB.
- Answer:
Note that 3.2 is exactly half of 6.4, so P is the midpoint. This task is
essentially drawing a perpendicular bisector at the midpoint of the line.
18. Draw an isosceles trapezium.
Draw and write the measurements of the diagonals.
- Answer:
In an isosceles trapezium, the diagonals are always equal in length.
If you draw one where the top is 4 cm and the bottom is 8 cm,
your diagonals will measure the same length as each other.
Would you like me to explain the
steps for any of the compass constructions (like Question 1 or 8) in more
detail?
Certainly! Constructing angles and lines using only a ruler and compass is all about using circles and arcs to find exact points. Here is a step-by-step guide for those specific constructions.
Question 1: Constructing Special Angles
All of these start with a baseline and an initial arc.
a. Constructing
1.
Draw a straight line and mark a point O
in the middle.
2.
Place the compass on O
and draw a semi-circle that cuts the line at points A
and B.
3.
Open the compass slightly wider. Place it on A
and draw an arc above the line.
4.
Keeping the same width, place the compass on B
and draw another arc that crosses the first one at point C.
5.
Draw a line from O through C.
This is your
angle.
c. Constructing
(Bisecting )
1.
Follow the steps above to make a angle.
2.
Place the compass point where the semi-circle hits the
baseline and draw an arc in the "corner."
3.
Place the compass point where the semi-circle hits the
vertical line and
draw another arc that crosses the previous one.
4.
Draw a line from the origin through this cross.
d. Constructing
1.
150∘
is exactly halfway between
and .
2.
Draw a baseline and a semi-circle from point O.
3.
Without changing the compass width, mark (first arc on the semi-circle)
and (second
arc).
4.
Bisect the space between the mark and the end of the line.
5. The resulting line from O creates a angle from the starting point of the baseline.
Question 8: Perpendicular from an External Point
This method allows you to drop a perfectly
"square" line from a point P that isn't sitting on
the line itself.
The Steps:
1.
The
"Smile" Arc: Place your compass sharp point on point P.
Open it wide enough so it can reach past the line AB.
Draw a wide arc that cuts the line AB at two different
spots. Let’s call these spots X and Y.
2.
The
Crossing Arcs: * Move the compass point to X
and draw an arc below the line.
o Move
the compass point to Y (keep the same width!) and draw another arc
that crosses the one you just made.
3.
The
Final Line: Use your ruler to connect point P
to the spot where those two lower arcs crossed.
This line will hit AB at exactly .
Would you
like me to walk you through the steps for any of the other constructions, like
the ∘ angle
or the ∘
angle?
In geometry,
quadrilaterals are classified as either convex or concave based on how their angles and diagonals
behave.

1. Convex
Quadrilateral
A convex quadrilateral is the "standard" shape
you usually see (like a square or rectangle).
·
The "Angles" Rule:
All four interior angles are less than
·
The
"Diagonal" Rule: Both diagonals lie entirely inside the shape.
·
The
"Look": It looks "blown out" or full; no part of the
boundary points toward the center.
2. Concave Quadrilateral
A concave quadrilateral (often
called a "dart" or "arrowhead") has a "caved-in"
appearance.
·
The
"Angles" Rule: One interior angle is a reflex angle (greater than
·
The
"Diagonal" Rule: At least one diagonal lies outside the shape.
·
The
"Look": It has a "dent" or a
"cave" where one vertex points inward.
