The perimeter of a triangle is $.........$ than the sum of its medians.

  1. Greater

  2. Lesser

  3. Equal

  4. May be greater or lesser


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Given: $\triangle ABC$, AD, BE and CF are medians from A, B and C respectively on the corresponding sides.

We know that sum of any two sides of the triangle is greater than twice the median bisecting the third side 
Hence, $AB + AC > 2 AD$ (1) 
$AB + BC > 2 BE$ (2)
$BC + AC > 2 CF$ (3)
Adding the three equations:
$2 (AB + BC + AC) > 2 (AD + BE + CF)$
$AB + BC + AC > AD + BE + CF$
Hence, the perimeter of the triangle is greater than the sum of the medians.

In a right triangle, the hypotenuse is the $.......$ side

  1. Largest

  2. Shortest

  3. Can be largest or shortest

  4. None of these


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

In a right triangle, using Pythagoras theorem,
$Hypotenuse^2 = perpendicular^2 + base^2$
Thus, Hypotenuse is the largest side.

The sum of the three altitudes of a triangle is $......$ than its perimeter

  1. Less

  2. More

  3. Equal

  4. Less than or more than


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Given: $\triangle ABC$, AD, BE and CF are perpendiculars from A, B and C respenctively on the corresponding sides.

Now, In $\triangle ADB$,
$AD < AB$ (Hypotenuse is the longest side)
Similarly in $\triangle ADC$,
$AD < AC$ (Hypotenuse is the longest side)
Hence, $2AD < AB  + AC$ (1)
Similarly we can say, $2BE < BC + AB$ (2)
and $2 CF < AC + BC$ (3)
or adding (1), (2), (3)
$2 (AC + AB + BC) > 2(AD + BE + CF)$
$AC + AB + BC > AD + BE + CF$
Thus, perimeter of the triangle is greater than the sum of altitudes

Because the sum of the length of any $2$ sides of the triangle should be greater than the third side, which is only satisfied by option 1.

$(4+5)>6$
$(4+6)>5$
$(5+6)>4$

Two sides of an acute-angled triangle are $6\ cm$ and $2\ cm$ respectively. Which one of the following represents the correct range of the third side in cm?

  1. $(4, 8)$

  2. $(4, 2\sqrt {10})$

  3. $(4\sqrt {2}, 8)$

  4. $(4\sqrt {2}, 2\sqrt {10})$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

If two sides of the triangle are 'a' and 'b' units, then the range of the third side is $(a - b, a + b)$.
So the range of the third side is $(4, 8)$.

In $\Delta ABC, AD \bot BC; BE \bot AC; CF \bot AB.$ then which of the following option is correct:

  1. $AD - BE + CF < AB + BC - CA$

  2. $AD + BE - CF < AB - BC - CA$

  3. $AD + BE - CF < AB - BC + CA$

  4. $AD + BE + CF < AB + BC + CA$


Correct Option: D
Explanation:

In triangle ADB,
$AD + BD > AB$
In triangle ADC,
$AD + DC > AC$
In tringle BEC,
$BE + EC > BC$
In tringle BEA,
$BE + AE > AB$
In traingle, CFA,
$CF + FA > AC$
In traingle, CFB,
$CF + FB > BC$
Add all the inequalities,
$2(AD + BE + CF) + AB + BC + CA > 2(AB + BC+ CA)$
$2 (AD + BE + CF) > AB + BC + CA$
or $AD + BE + CF < AB + BC + CA$

In a $\Delta ABC$, which of the following relation is correct where A, B, C are the vertices and D, E, F are the corresponding mid-points?

  1. $AD + BE + CF < AB + BC + CA$

  2. $AB + BE + CF < AD + BC + CA$

  3. $AD + BC + CF < AB + BE + CA$

  4. $AD + BE + CF > AB + BC + CA$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

In a $\Delta ABC$ let perimeter equal to $AB + BC + CA$ and sum of altitudes is equal to $AD + BE + CF$. Now since $AD\bot BC$
$\therefore AD < AB, AD < AC$
$\therefore AD + AD < AB + AC$
$ 2AD < AB + AC$
$\therefore BE \bot CA$
$\Rightarrow BE < BC, BE < BA$
$\Rightarrow BE + BE < BC + BA$
$2BE < BC +BA.........(2)$
$CF \bot AB$
$\therefore CF < CA, CF < CB$
$\therefore CF + CF < CA + CB$
$2CF < CA + CB.......(3)$
On adding (1), (2) and (3), we get
$2(AD+BE+CF)< AB+ AC + BC+ BA + CA + CB < 2AB + 2BC + 2 CA < 2(AB+BC+CA)$
Hence $AD + BE + CF < AB + BC + CA$

The longest side of a triangle is three times the shortest side and the third side is $2$ cm shorter than the longest side. If the perimeter of the triangle is at least $61$ cm, find the minimum length of the shortest-side.

  1. $9$ cm

  2. $11$ cm

  3. $16$ cm

  4. $61$ cm


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

Let the shortest side $= s$
Longest side $= 3s$
Third side $= 3s -2$
Now perimeter $= s + 3s +3s -2 = 7s -2 \ge 61$
$\therefore 7s \ge 63$
$\therefore s \ge 9$
Thus minimum length of the shortest side$= 9$ cm

If the inequality $\left( m-2 \right) { x }^{ 2 }+8x+m+4>0$ is satisfied for all $x\epsilon R$, then least integral m is

  1. $4$

  2. $5$

  4. None of these


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
$(m-2){ x }^{ 2 }+8x+m+4>0$
${ b }^{ 2 }-4ac>0$
${ (8) }^{ 2 }-4(m-2)(m+4)>0$
$64-4({ m }^{ 2 }-2m-8)>0$
$64-4{ m }^{ 2 }+8m+32>0$
$-4{ m }^{ 2 }+8m+96>0$
$-{ m }^{ 2 }+2m+24>0$
$-{ m }^{ 2 }-6m+4m+24>0$
$-m(m+6)+4(m+6)>0$
$(4-m)(m+6)>0$
The least integral of m is $4$.

  3. $6\,cm,\,7\,cm,\,16\,cm$

  4. $8\,cm,\,7\,cm,\,16\,cm$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
Triangle Inequality Theorem, states that the sum of two side lengths of a triangle is always greater than the third side. 
$(a)17+8>23$ is  true
Hence the sides with the measure $23\ cm,17\ cm,8\ cm$ will  form the sides of a triangle.
$(b)10+12>25$ is not true
Hence the sides with the measure $10\ cm,12\ cm,25\ cm$ will not form the sides of a triangle.
$(c)6+7>16$ is not true
Hence the sides with the measure $6\ cm,7\ cm,16\ cm$ will not form the sides of a triangle.
$(d)8+7>16$ is not true
Hence the sides with the measure $8\ cm,7\ cm,16\ cm$ will not form the sides of a triangle.

  2. $\dfrac{4}{\sqrt{10}}$

  3. $\dfrac{11}{\sqrt{10}}$

  4. $\dfrac{22}{\sqrt{10}}$


Correct Option: D
Explanation:
Equation of line BC 
$\frac { y-2 }{ x-5 } =\frac { 2-(-1) }{ 5-4 } \\ \Rightarrow { (y-2) }\times { (5-4) }={ (x-5) }\times { (2+1) }\\ \Rightarrow { 3x }-{ y }-{ 13 }={ 0 }$
Length of altitude from point A to the line BC
$\\ =\frac { \left| 3\times (-3)-1\times 0-13 \right|  }{ \sqrt { { 3 }^{ 2 }+{ (-1) }^{ 2 } }  } \\ =\frac { \left| -9-13 \right|  }{ \sqrt { 10 }  } \\ =\frac { 22 }{ \sqrt { 10 }  } $

  4. positive


Correct Option: A

In a triangle $ABC, \angle C=90^{o}, a=3, b=4$ and $D$ is a point on $AB$, so that $\angle BCD=30^{o}$. Then the length of $CD$ is 

  1. $\dfrac{18-24\sqrt{3}}{25}$

  2. $\dfrac{18+24\sqrt{3}}{25}$

  3. $\dfrac{8-24\sqrt{3}}{25}$

  4. $None\ of\ these$


Correct Option: D
Explanation:
Area of $\triangle BCD$ + Area of $\triangle ACD$ = Area of $\triangle ABC$

$\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot 3CD\cdot \sin 30+\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot 4CD\cdot \sin 60=\dfrac{1}{2}3\times 4$

$3CD\times \dfrac{1}{2}+4CD \times \dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2}=12$

$\dfrac{CD}{2}(3+4\sqrt{3})=12$

$\therefore CD=\dfrac{24}{3+4\sqrt{3}}$

In a triangle $ABC, \angle ABC=50^{o}, \angle BAC=30^{o}$, then the shortest sides is 

  1. $AB$

  2. $BC$

  3. $CA$

  4. $None$


Correct Option: B
Explanation:
The side opposite to the largest angle is the longest side of the triangle and the side opposite to the smallest angle is the shortest side of the triangle.
By angle sum property,$ \angle{A}+\angle{B}+\angle{C}={180}^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow {30}^{\circ}+{50}^{\circ}+\angle{C}={180}^{\circ}$
$\Rightarrow \angle{C}={180}^{\circ}-{80}^{\circ}={100}^{\circ}$
The side opposite to the smallest angle $\left({30}^{\circ}\right)$ is the side $BC$

This can be taken as a fact that the median corresponding to the longer side has the larger median.

Or you can even take a rough triangle to deduce the result.

If $k$ is an integer and $2 < k < 7$, for how many different values of $k$ is there a triangle with sides of lengths $2, 7$, and $k$?

  1. One

  2. Two

  3. Three

  4. Four

  5. Five


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
In a triangle, the sum of the smaller two sides must be larger than the largest side.
For $k$ values $3, 4, 5$, and $6$, the only triangle possible is $2, 7$, and $k = 6$ because only $2 + 6 > 7$. For $k$ values $3, 4$, and $5$, the sum of the smaller two sides is not larger than the third side; thus, $6$ is the only possible value of $k$ that satisfies the conditions.
The correct answer is A.

All equilateral triangles are ____.

  1. congruent

  2. will be congruent if their length of sides are equal

  3. never congruent

  4. none of these


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

Equilateral triangles have all the three angles equal to $\displaystyle { 60 }^{ o }$. 

But the length of sides can be different for different equilateral triangles. 
Thus if the length is also fixed, then all the equilateral triangles having sides lengths same are congruent.

Find the length of the third side of the triangle inequality, if sides of a triangle have $a = 4$ and $b = 8$.

  1. $c = 10$

  2. $c = 2$

  3. $c = 3$

  4. $c = 4$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

The Triangle Inequality theorem states that the sum of any $2$ sides of a triangle must be greater than the measure of the third side.
Take option A: $a = 4, b = 8, c = 10$
$4 + 8 > 10 (a + b > c)$
$8 + 10 > 4 (b + c > a)$
$4 + 10 < 8 (a + c > b)  $
Therefore, the third side, $c = 10$ will satisfy the triangle inequality
Similarly check for option 2: $c = 2$
$4 + 8 > 2 (a + b > c)$
$8 + 2 > 10 (b + c = a)$
$4 + 2 < 8 (a + c < b)  $
Hence, the second option will not satisfying the triangle inequality.
Similarly check for option $3$ and $4$.
Here, the third side of the triangle inequality, $c = 10$.

In triangle $PQR$, an exterior angle at $A$ measures $160^o$, and $\angle$ $Q = 70 ^o$. Which is the longest side of the triangle?

  1. $\overline{PR}$

  2. $\overline{PA}$

  3. $\overline{PQ}$

  4. $\overline{QR}$


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

Exterior angle $A = 180 -$ $\angle$ $P = 180-160$
$\angle$ $P = 20$
$\angle$ $Q = 70$
Interior angle $= 20 + 70 +$ $\angle$ $R = 180$
$\angle$ $R = 90$
In a triangle inequality theorem,the largest side is across from the longest angle.
So, $90^o$ is the longest angle in the triangle, $\overline{PQ}$, across from it, is the largest side.
Therefore, $\overline{PQ}$ is the largest side.

Mark the triplet that can be the lengths of the sides of a triangle.

  1. $2, 3, 5$

  2. $1, 4, 2$

  3. $7, 4, 4$

  4. $5, 6, 12$

  5. $9, 20, 8$


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

for triplet to be the length of triangle, it must satisfy triangle property.

sum of any two sides must be greater than third side
So, $7,4,4$ is correct answer.
If we consider remaining options, observe that sum of two sides is less than third side, so they cannot form triangle.

Two sides of a triangle have lengths $5$ and $8$, and the length of the third side is an integer. What is the greatest possible value of the perimeter of the triangle?

  1. $22$

  2. $24$

  3. $25$

  4. $26$

  5. $27$


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

The third side rule says that the length of the third side of the triangle in this case must be less than $5+8=13$
Since the length of the third side is an integer, the length must be $12$

The biggest possible perimeter is then $5+8+12=25$
As we know, perimeter of a triangle is $=1^{st}$ side $+2^{nd}$ side $+ 3^{rd}$ side.

In a triangle $ABC$, $(a+b+c)(b+c-a)=k$$bc$ if:

  1. $k< 0$

  2. $k> 6$

  3. $0< k< 4$

  4. $k> 4$


Correct Option: C

$D$ is a point on the side $BC$ of a $\Delta$ $ABC$, such that $AD$ bisects $\angle $ $BAC$. Then:

  1. $BA = CD$

  2. $BA > BD$

  3. $BD > BA$

  4. $CD > CA$


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

The definition of the angle bisector of a triangle is a line segment that bisects one of the vertex angles of a triangle. In general, an angle bisector is equidistant from the sides of the angle when measured along a segment perpendicular to the sides of the angle 

Hence, by definition,$BD+DC=BC$
Therefore, $BA>BD$

  4. $\lambda \in \left( {\frac{4}{3},\frac{5}{3}} \right)$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
The question must be Let $a,b,c$ be the sides of a triangle.No two of them are equal and $\lambda\in R$. If the roots of the eqn ${x}^{2}+2\left(a+b+c\right)x + 3\lambda\left(ab+bc+ca\right) = 0$ are real, then $\lambda\in\,R$

Given, roots of equation ${x}^{2}+2\left(a+b+c\right)x + 3\lambda\left(ab+bc+ca\right) = 0$ are real,
So,$D\ge\,0$

$\Rightarrow\,{\left[2\left(a+b+c\right)\right]}^{2}-4\times 1\times 3\lambda\left(ab+bc+ca\right)\ge 0$

$\Rightarrow\,4{\left(a+b+c\right)}^{2}-12\lambda\left(ab+bc+ca\right)\ge 0$

$\Rightarrow\,4{\left(a+b+c\right)}^{2}\ge\,12\lambda\left(ab+bc+ca\right)$

$\Rightarrow\,\lambda\le\dfrac{4{\left(a+b+c\right)}^{2}}{12\lambda\left(ab+bc+ca\right)}$

$\Rightarrow\,\lambda\le\,\dfrac{4\left({a}^{2}+{b}^{2}+{c}^{2}\right)}{12\lambda\left(ab+bc+ca\right)}+\dfrac{8\lambda\left(ab+bc+ca\right)}{12\lambda\left(ab+bc+ca\right)}$

$\Rightarrow\,\lambda\le\,\dfrac{4\left({a}^{2}+{b}^{2}+{c}^{2}\right)}{12\lambda\left(ab+bc+ca\right)}+\dfrac{8}{12}$

$\Rightarrow\,\lambda\le\,\dfrac{4\left({a}^{2}+{b}^{2}+{c}^{2}\right)}{12\lambda\left(ab+bc+ca\right)}+\dfrac{2}{3}$      .......$(1)$

Now, we know that,

$\left|a-b\right|<c\Rightarrow\,{a}^{2}+{b}^{2}-2ab<{c}^{2}$

$\left|b-c\right|<a\Rightarrow\,{b}^{2}+{c}^{2}-2bc<{a}^{2}$

$\left|c-a\right|<c\Rightarrow\,{c}^{2}+{a}^{2}-2ac<{b}^{2}$

On adding,

${a}^{2}+{b}^{2}-2ab+{b}^{2}+{c}^{2}-2bc+{c}^{2}+{a}^{2}-2ac<{a}^{2}+{b}^{2}+{c}^{2}$

${a}^{2}+{b}^{2}+{c}^{2}<2ab+2bc+2ca$

$\Rightarrow\,dfrac{{a}^{2}+{b}^{2}+{c}^{2}}{ab+bc+ca}<2$

So, eqn$(1)$ becomes,

$\lambda<\dfrac{2}{3}+\dfrac{2}{3}$

$\therefore\,\lambda<\dfrac{4}{3}$

The area of the triangle formed by the lines  $x ^ { 2 } - 3 x y + y ^ { 2 } = 0$  and  $x + y + 1 = 0$  is square units. is

  1. $\dfrac {1}{12}$

  2. $\dfrac { 1 } { 2 \sqrt { 5 } }$

  3. $\dfrac { 2 } { \sqrt { 3 } }$

  4. $\dfrac { \sqrt { 3 } } { 2 }$


Correct Option: A
Explanation:
${ x }^{ 2 }-3xy+2{ y }^{ 2 }=0$
$\Rightarrow \left( x-y \right) \left( x-2y \right) =0$
Hence three sides are
$x-y=0\quad \longrightarrow \left( i \right) $
$x-2y=0\quad \longrightarrow \left( ii \right) $
$x+y+1=0\quad \longrightarrow \left( iii \right) $
Solving $(i)$, $(ii)$ & $(iii)$
three vertices are $A\left( 0,0 \right) ,\quad B\left( \dfrac { -2 }{ 3 } ,\dfrac { -1 }{ 3 }  \right) ,\quad C\left( \dfrac { -1 }{ 2 } ,\dfrac { -1 }{ 2 }  \right) $
$AB=\sqrt { \dfrac { 1 }{ 9 } +\dfrac { 4 }{ 9 }  } =\sqrt { \dfrac { 5 }{ 9 }  } =\dfrac { \sqrt { 5 }  }{ 3 } $
$BC=\sqrt { \dfrac { 1 }{ 36 } +\dfrac { 1 }{ 36 }  } =\dfrac { \sqrt { 2 }  }{ 6 } $
$AC=\sqrt { \dfrac { 1 }{ 4 } +\dfrac { 1 }{ 4 }  } =\dfrac { 1 }{ \sqrt { 2 }  } =\dfrac { \sqrt { 2 }  }{ 2 } $
$\therefore$   area using heron's formula
$\Delta =\sqrt { S\left( S-AB \right) \left( S-BC \right) \left( S-CA \right)  } $
    $=\dfrac { 1 }{ 12 } { unit }^{ 2 }$

In a triangle ABC. The relation which is true for its sides is-

  1. AB + BC < AC

  2. AB + BC > AC

  3. AB +BC = CA

  4. AB = BC + AC


Correct Option: B
Explanation:

In ABC,
Sum of the two sides is always greater than third side.
So, AB + BC > AC
