Key Concept: Rectangle Diagonals, Square Diagonals

c) $147.48^\circ$
[Solution Description]
The diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other but are not perpendicular. To find the angle between them:
1. First, find the length of one diagonal using the Pythagorean theorem: $d = \sqrt{l^2 + w^2} = \sqrt{8^2 + 6^2} = \sqrt{64 + 36} = \sqrt{100} = 10$ cm.
2. The diagonals in a rectangle are equal and bisect each other, forming four congruent triangles.
3. In any of these triangles, two sides are half the length of the diagonal ($5$ cm each), and the third side is the width or length of the rectangle.
4. Using the cosine rule for one triangle with sides $\frac{d}{2} = 5$ cm, $\frac{d}{2} = 5$ cm, and the included side $w = 6$ cm:
$\cos(\theta) = \frac{5^2 + 5^2 - 6^2}{2 \times 5 \times 5} = \frac{25 + 25 - 36}{50} = \frac{14}{50} = 0.28$
5. Therefore, $\theta = \cos^{-1}(0.28) \approx 73.74^\circ$. Since the angle between the diagonals is twice this angle (as the diagonals form two such triangles back-to-back), the angle between the diagonals is $\approx 147.48^\circ$.

c) 8 cm
[Solution Description]
In a rectangle, the diagonals are always equal in length. Therefore, if one diagonal is 8 cm, the other diagonal must also be 8 cm.

The diagonals of a rectangle are equal and bisect each other, as stated in the properties of a rectangle.

Key Concept: Rectangle properties

b) 10 cm
[Solution Description]
According to the properties of a rectangle, the diagonals are equal in length. Therefore, if diagonal $AC$ is 10 cm, diagonal $BD$ must also be 10 cm.

Key Concept: Side Length from Diagonal

c) $40$ cm
[Solution Description]
Let the side of the square be $s$. The relationship between the side and the diagonal of a square is given by $d = s\sqrt{2}$. Given $d = 10\sqrt{2}$ cm, we can solve for $s$:
$10\sqrt{2} = s\sqrt{2} \implies s = 10 \, \text{cm}$
The perimeter of the square is $4s = 4 \times 10 = 40$ cm.

Key Concept: Properties of a Square

d) All sides are equal and diagonals bisect each other at $90^\circ$.
[Solution Description]
A square has all sides equal and all angles equal to $90^\circ$. Its diagonals are equal in length, bisect each other at $90^\circ$, and bisect the angles of the square.

Key Concept: Diagonals of a rectangle

c) It must be a rectangle.
[Solution Description]
If the diagonals of a quadrilateral are equal and bisect each other, then it must be a rectangle because these properties ensure that the quadrilateral has all its angles as 90° and opposite sides equal.

Key Concept: Properties of Rectangles, Diagonals

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
Let us analyze the assertion and reason step by step:
1. The assertion states that if diagonals of a quadrilateral are equal and bisect each other at $90^\circ$, it must be a square. From the syllabus, we know this is true because the square has diagonals meeting these conditions.
2. The reason states that in a rectangle, diagonals are equal and bisect each other but may not intersect at $90^\circ$. This is also true as only squares (special rectangles) have diagonals intersecting at $90^\circ$, while general rectangles do not satisfy this condition.
3. However, the reason correctly explains why the assertion is true: A quadrilateral with diagonals equal and bisecting at $90^\circ$ must be a square because no other rectangle satisfies this property.
Therefore, both the assertion and reason are true, and the reason provides the correct explanation for the assertion.

Key Concept: Angles Between Diagonals

c) $90^\circ$
[Solution Description]
In a square, the diagonals bisect each other at right angles ($90^\circ$). This is a unique property of squares compared to other rectangles.

Key Concept: Congruency of Triangles

c) Rectangle
[Solution Description]
A quadrilateral whose diagonals are equal and bisect each other must be a rectangle. While squares also satisfy this condition, the general case is a rectangle because squares have additional properties like all sides being equal and diagonals intersecting at $90^\circ$.

Key Concept: Diagonals of Squares and Rectangles

d) Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that if the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other at right angles and are equal in length, then the quadrilateral must be a square. This is not entirely accurate because a rhombus also has diagonals that bisect each other at right angles, but its diagonals are not necessarily equal in length. However, the reason given is that such a quadrilateral satisfies all properties of a square, which is true only for squares. Therefore, while both statements seem plausible, the assertion overgeneralizes by not considering other quadrilaterals (like rhombuses) that partially satisfy these conditions.
Thus:
- Assertion (A) is false because other quadrilaterals (e.g., rhombus) can have diagonals bisecting at right angles without being squares.
- Reason (R) is true because, for a square, the diagonals do indeed satisfy these properties, but this does not mean the quadrilateral must necessarily be a square.

Key Concept: Diagonals of Rectangle and Square

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that the diagonals of a rectangle always intersect at their midpoints. This is true because, in any rectangle, the diagonals are equal in length and they bisect each other at their midpoints. The reason states that a rectangle is a type of parallelogram where the diagonals bisect each other. This is also true as all rectangles are parallelograms with congruent diagonals that bisect each other. Moreover, the reason correctly explains why the assertion is true since it provides the underlying property (parallelogram diagonals bisecting each other) that leads to the assertion being valid.
Thus, both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.

Key Concept: Diagonals of a square

c) $10\ \text{cm}$
[Solution Description]
For a square with diagonal $d$, the side length $s$ is related by $d = s\sqrt{2}$. Given $d = 10\sqrt{2}\ \text{cm}$, solving for $s$ gives:
$s = \frac{d}{\sqrt{2}} = \frac{10\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}} = 10\ \text{cm}$

Key Concept: Properties of diagonals in a square

b) $90^\circ$, $90^\circ$, $90^\circ$
[Solution Description]
In a square, the diagonals are equal, bisect each other, and intersect at $90^\circ$. Therefore, the angles at the intersection are all equal. If one angle is $x = 90^\circ$, the other three angles will also be $90^\circ$ due to vertically opposite angles and linear pairs.

Key Concept: Diagonals, Congruence, Angle Properties

c) $36 \, \text{cm}^2$
[Solution Description]
The area of a rhombus is half the product of its diagonals. Given the shorter diagonal $d_1 = 6$ cm, the longer diagonal $d_2 = 2d_1 = 12$ cm.
The area is calculated as:
$\text{Area} = \frac{d_1 \times d_2}{2} = \frac{6 \times 12}{2} = 36 \, \text{cm}^2.$

Key Concept: Diagonal Intersection, Angle Calculation

c) $100^\circ$
[Solution Description]
In a rectangle, the diagonals bisect each other and are equal in length, forming congruent isosceles triangles. For the given quadrilateral formed by the diagonals, the angles are $80^\circ$, $100^\circ$, $80^\circ$, and $100^\circ$.
Since the sum of angles around a point is $360^\circ$, the angle between the diagonals is:
$x + 180 - x = 180^\circ.$
Here, the given angles suggest two pairs of supplementary angles ($80^\circ + 100^\circ = 180^\circ$), which implies the angle between the diagonals alternates as $80^\circ$ and $100^\circ$. Thus, $x$ is either $80^\circ$ or $100^\circ$.
However, for a rectangle, the answer must align with the property that diagonals form congruent isosceles triangles, so $x = 100^\circ$ is correct (as the acute angle would be $80^\circ$).

Key Concept: Properties of square diagonals

c) $90^\circ$
[Solution Description]
In a square, the diagonals bisect each other at $90^\circ$. Therefore, the angle between the diagonals is $90^\circ$.

Key Concept: Properties of Rectangles

b) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
In a rectangle, the diagonals are always equal in length. This is a proven property of rectangles. The diagonals also bisect each other, but this property alone does not explain why they are equal in length. Both statements are true, but the Reason does not correctly explain the Assertion.

Key Concept: Properties of Rectangles and Squares

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The Assertion states that if a quadrilateral has equal-length diagonals that bisect each other at 90°, it must be a square. This is true because such properties are unique to squares among all quadrilaterals. The Reason correctly explains the Assertion as it lists the defining properties of the diagonals of a square. Therefore, both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.

Key Concept: Construction of Square

c) $3\sqrt{2}$ cm
[Solution Description]
For a square, the relationship between the diagonal ($d$) and the side length ($s$) is given by $d = s\sqrt{2}$. Rearranging this, $s = \frac{d}{\sqrt{2}} = \frac{6}{\sqrt{2}} = 3\sqrt{2}$ cm.

Key Concept: Quadrilateral Angles, Side Lengths

b) Opposite sides are equal.
[Solution Description]
A quadrilateral with all angles equal to $90^\circ$ is a rectangle, where opposite sides are equal in length. This can be proved by dividing the quadrilateral into two congruent right triangles using a diagonal and applying the properties of congruent triangles. Thus, opposite sides must be equal.

Key Concept: Rectangle Diagonals, Angle between Diagonals

c) $90^\circ$
[Solution Description]
In a quadrilateral with all angles equal to $90^\circ$ (rectangle), the diagonals are equal in length and bisect each other. The angle between the diagonals can be determined by considering two congruent right triangles formed by the diagonals. Let the point of intersection be O. Using properties of rectangles, $\angle AOB$ and $\angle BOC$ are equal and supplementary ($\angle AOB + \angle BOC = 180^\circ$). Hence, each angle must be $90^\circ$.

Key Concept: Definition of a Rectangle

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that a quadrilateral with diagonals equal in length and bisecting each other is a rectangle, which aligns with the alternative definition of a rectangle mentioned in the syllabus. The reason correctly states that in a rectangle, the diagonals are equal and bisect each other. Moreover, the reason provides the justification for why such a quadrilateral must be a rectangle, making it the correct explanation of the assertion.

Key Concept: Rectangle Definition

c) 8 cm
[Solution Description]
In a rectangle, both diagonals are equal in length. Since one diagonal is given as 8 cm, the other diagonal must also be 8 cm.

Key Concept: Square Properties

c) They bisect each other at $90^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Both squares and rectangles have diagonals that are equal in length and bisect each other. However, the diagonals of a square additionally bisect each other at right angles ($90^\circ$), which is not necessarily true for all rectangles.

Key Concept: Quadrilateral Construction

c) Square
[Solution Description]
When the diagonals of a quadrilateral are equal in length and bisect each other at $90^\circ$, the quadrilateral must be a square. This is because such properties are specific to squares and not to other quadrilaterals like rectangles or rhombuses unless all sides are also equal.

Key Concept: Properties of a Square

c) The diagonals are not equal in length.
[Solution Description]
Properties of a square:
1. All sides are equal.
2. All angles are $90^\circ$.
3. Diagonals are equal, bisect each other at $90^\circ$, and also bisect the angles.
The statement "The diagonals are not equal in length" is false for a square.

Key Concept: Properties of a Square

b) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that the diagonals of a square bisect each other at right angles. This is true as per Property 4 of a square mentioned in the syllabus. The reason given is that a square is a special type of rectangle where all sides are equal and all angles are $90^\circ$. This is also true as per the definition and properties of a square. However, the reason does not directly explain why the diagonals bisect each other at right angles; it only defines what a square is. Therefore, both the assertion and reason are true, but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

Key Concept: Properties of Rectangles and Squares

b) 10 cm
[Solution Description]
To find the diagonal of a rectangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem. The diagonal divides the rectangle into two right-angled triangles.
Step 1: Let the sides of the rectangle be $a = 6$ cm and $b = 8$ cm.
Step 2: The diagonal $d$ can be calculated using the formula:
$d = \sqrt{a^2 + b^2}$
Step 3: Substituting the values:
$d = \sqrt{6^2 + 8^2} = \sqrt{36 + 64} = \sqrt{100} = 10 \text{ cm}$
Thus, the diagonal is $10$ cm.

Key Concept: Venn Diagram Representation

c) Square $\subset$ Rectangle
[Solution Description]
The set of all squares is a subset of the set of all rectangles because every square is a rectangle (all angles $90^\circ$ and opposite sides equal), but not all rectangles are squares. Thus, the correct representation is Square $\subset$ Rectangle.

Key Concept: Properties of Rectangles and Squares

b) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that every square is a rectangle. This is true because a square satisfies all the properties of a rectangle: all angles are $90^\circ$, opposite sides are equal and parallel, and diagonals bisect each other.
The reason given is that in a square, all angles are $90^\circ$ and opposite sides are equal and parallel. This is also true as it aligns with the properties of both squares and rectangles. However, while the reason correctly describes properties of a square, it does not explicitly link these properties to why a square is a rectangle. The key observation from the syllabus mentions this relationship directly ("Every square is a rectangle"), but the reason does not provide an explanation for the assertion; it merely lists properties. Hence, both the assertion and reason are true, but the reason is NOT the correct explanation of the assertion.

Key Concept: Properties of Rectangles

c) The diagonals are equal in length.
[Solution Description]
Since all angles are $90^\circ$, the quadrilateral is a rectangle. By Property 2, opposite sides must be equal and parallel (Property 3). Therefore, the correct statement is that its diagonals are equal in length.

Key Concept: Sum of angles in a quadrilateral

b) $110^\circ$
[Solution Description]
The sum of all angles in a quadrilateral is $360^\circ$. Given three angles: $85^\circ$, $95^\circ$, and $70^\circ$.
Let the fourth angle be $x$.
Therefore, $85^\circ + 95^\circ + 70^\circ + x = 360^\circ$.
Simplify: $250^\circ + x = 360^\circ$.
Subtract $250^\circ$ from both sides to find $x = 110^\circ$.

Key Concept: Sum of angles in a quadrilateral

c) 360$^\circ$
[Solution Description]
The sum of all interior angles of any quadrilateral is always $360^\circ$, as per the angle sum property of quadrilaterals.

Key Concept: Quadrilateral Angle Sum, Variable Substitution

b) $50^\circ$
[Solution Description]
The sum of all angles in a quadrilateral is $360^\circ$. Let the fourth angle be $x$.
We can write the equation: $70^\circ + 110^\circ + 130^\circ + x = 360^\circ$.
Adding the known angles: $310^\circ + x = 360^\circ$.
Subtract $310^\circ$ from both sides: $x = 50^\circ$.
Therefore, the fourth angle is $50^\circ$.

Key Concept: Properties of a rectangle

c) Rectangle
[Solution Description]
A quadrilateral with all four angles equal must have each angle equal to $90^\circ$ because the total sum of angles is $360^\circ$. Therefore, such a quadrilateral is a rectangle.

Key Concept: Sum of angles in a quadrilateral

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
To verify the assertion, let's calculate the fourth angle:
Sum of given angles = $80° + 100° + 90° = 270°$.
Since the total sum of angles in a quadrilateral is $360°$, the fourth angle must be $360° - 270° = 90°$. This matches the assertion.
The reason states that the sum of interior angles in any quadrilateral is $360°$, which is true and correctly explains why the fourth angle must be $90°$ in this case.
Therefore, both the assertion and reason are true, and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

Key Concept: Sum of angles in a quadrilateral, relationship between angles

d) 90°
[Solution Description]
Step 1: Given that angles P and R are supplementary, so $P + R = 180°$.
Step 2: Given $P = 110°$, so $R = 180° - 110° = 70°$.
Step 3: Angles Q and S are supplementary, so $Q + S = 180°$.
Step 4: Sum of all angles in quadrilateral PQRS is 360°.
Step 5: So, $P + Q + R + S = 360°$ ⇒ $110° + Q + 70° + S = 360°$.
Step 6: From step 3, substitute Q as $(180° - S)$ ⇒ $110° + (180° - S) + 70° + S = 360°$.
Step 7: Solve the equation: $110° + 180° - S + 70° + S = 360°$ ⇒ $360° = 360°$.
This shows that angle S can be any value as long as $Q + S = 180°$. However, since the options provided are specific, we need to consider possible constraints. Typically, for a valid quadrilateral, $S$ must be such that none of the angles exceed practical limits.

Key Concept: Sum of angles in a quadrilateral

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that the sum of angles in any quadrilateral is 360°, which is true based on the syllabus. The reason explains that when a quadrilateral is split into two triangles via a diagonal, the sum of angles in each triangle is 180°, leading to a total of 360° for the quadrilateral. Therefore, both the assertion and reason are correct, and the reason justifies the assertion.

Key Concept: Rectangle properties

d) Rectangle
[Solution Description]
A rectangle is defined as a quadrilateral with all four angles equal to $90^\circ$, opposite sides equal, and opposite sides parallel.

Key Concept: Quadrilateral Angle Sum Property

d) Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
[Solution Description]
We know from the properties of quadrilaterals that the sum of all four interior angles is always $360^\circ$.
If three angles are each $90^\circ$, their sum is $3 \times 90^\circ = 270^\circ$. If the fourth angle were not $90^\circ$, say $x$, then the total sum would be $270^\circ + x$. For this to equal $360^\circ$, $x$ must satisfy:
$270^\circ + x = 360^\circ$
$x = 360^\circ - 270^\circ$
$x = 90^\circ$
This means the fourth angle must also be $90^\circ$ to satisfy the angle sum property. Hence, it is impossible for a quadrilateral to have three right angles and a non-right fourth angle.
The assertion claims it is possible, which is false, but the reason correctly states the angle sum property of quadrilaterals.

Key Concept: Angles in a Quadrilateral, Sum of Angles

d) Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
[Solution Description]
To verify, assume a quadrilateral has three right angles ($90^{\circ}$ each). Let the fourth angle be $x$. According to the property of quadrilaterals, the sum of all four angles must be $360^{\circ}$. Thus:
$90^{\circ} + 90^{\circ} + 90^{\circ} + x = 360^{\circ}.$
Simplifying:
$270^{\circ} + x = 360^{\circ},$
which gives:
$x = 90^{\circ}.$
Therefore, if three angles are $90^{\circ}$, the fourth must also be $90^{\circ}$. Hence, it is impossible for a quadrilateral to have exactly three right angles and one non-right angle. The Assertion is false, but the Reason is true.

Key Concept: Constructing quadrilaterals

c) All four angles must be right angles if three are already right angles.
[Solution Description]
A quadrilateral cannot have three right angles and one non-right angle because the sum of its angles must be $360^\circ$. Hence, if three angles are $90^\circ$, the fourth must also be $90^\circ$.

Key Concept: Angles in a Quadrilateral

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The Assertion states that it is impossible to have a quadrilateral with three right angles and one non-right angle. This is true because, as per the Reason, the sum of all angles in a quadrilateral must be $360^\circ$. If three angles are each $90^\circ$, their total would be $270^\circ$, leaving the fourth angle as $90^\circ$ ($360^\circ - 270^\circ = 90^\circ$). Therefore, the fourth angle cannot be anything other than $90^\circ$. Here, the Reason correctly explains why the Assertion is true.

Key Concept: Adjacent Angles in Parallelogram

b) $130^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Adjacent angles in a parallelogram are supplementary, meaning they add up to $180^\circ$. If one angle is $50^\circ$, the adjacent angle will be $180^\circ - 50^\circ = 130^\circ$.

Key Concept: Opposite Angles in Parallelogram

a) $70^\circ$
[Solution Description]
In a parallelogram, opposite angles are equal. So, if $\angle A = 70^\circ$, then $\angle C$ will also be $70^\circ$ because they are opposite angles.

Key Concept: Special Cases: Rhombus, Rectangle, Square

c) All sides are equal
[Solution Description] A rhombus has all sides equal, but its angles are not necessarily $90^\circ$. A rectangle has all angles equal to $90^\circ$, but its sides are not necessarily equal. Therefore, the property that applies to all rhombuses but not necessarily to all rectangles is "All sides are equal".

Key Concept: Diagonals of Parallelogram, Bisection Property

c) $10$ cm
[Solution Description] The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other. This means $PO = OR$ and $QO = OS$. Here, $PO = 5$ cm and $OR = 3$ cm implies the diagonals are not bisecting each other equally, which contradicts the property. Therefore, the correct values must be equal. Assuming $PO = OR = x$, then $PR = PO + OR = x + x = 2x$. However, the problem states $PO = 5$ cm and $OR = 3$ cm, which is impossible for a parallelogram. But interpreting it as a misprint, if $PO = 5$ cm and $OR = 5$ cm, then $PR = 10$ cm.

Key Concept: Parallelogram Properties

d) Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
[Solution Description]
Assertion (A) claims that the diagonals of a parallelogram are equal in length. However, according to the syllabus, while the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other (Property 4), they need not be equal in length (as stated under "Note"). Therefore, the assertion is false.
Reason (R) states that the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other, which is true as per Property 4 in the syllabus.
Thus, Assertion is false while Reason is true.

Key Concept: Opposite sides and diagonals of parallelogram

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
Let us verify the assertion using the properties of parallelograms. Consider a parallelogram with adjacent sides $a$ and $b$. Let $d_1$ and $d_2$ be its diagonals. By the property of parallelograms, the diagonals bisect each other. Using the law of cosines in one of the triangles formed by the diagonals, we get:
For triangle formed by half-diagonals and side $a$:
$\left(\frac{d_1}{2}\right)^2 + \left(\frac{d_2}{2}\right)^2 - 2 \cdot \frac{d_1}{2} \cdot \frac{d_2}{2} \cos(\theta) = a^2$
Similarly for side $b$:
$\left(\frac{d_1}{2}\right)^2 + \left(\frac{d_2}{2}\right)^2 - 2 \cdot \frac{d_1}{2} \cdot \frac{d_2}{2} \cos(180^\circ - \theta) = b^2$
Adding these two equations and simplifying:
$2\left(\frac{d_1^2}{4} + \frac{d_2^2}{4}\right) + \frac{d_1 d_2 \cos(\theta)}{2} - \frac{d_1 d_2 \cos(\theta)}{2} = a^2 + b^2$
Which simplifies to:
$\frac{d_1^2 + d_2^2}{2} = a^2 + b^2 \implies d_1^2 + d_2^2 = 2(a^2 + b^2)$
Thus, both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason correctly explains Assertion.

Key Concept: Properties of Parallelogram, Diagonal Bisection

a) $\frac{20}{3}$
[Solution Description]
The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other. Therefore, in parallelogram $PQRS$, $PO = OR$.
Given:
$PO = 4x - 5$
$OR = x + 15$
Since $PO = OR$, we set them equal:
$4x - 5 = x + 15$
Subtract $x$ from both sides:
$3x - 5 = 15$
Add $5$ to both sides:
$3x = 20$
Divide by $3$ on both sides:
$x = \frac{20}{3}$
The value of $x$ is $\frac{20}{3}$.

Key Concept: Congruent triangles in a parallelogram

c) $\Delta ABD \cong \Delta BDC$
[Solution Description]
In parallelogram ABCD, opposite sides are equal ($AB = CD$ and $AD = CB$). By the SSS (Side-Side-Side) congruence condition, $\Delta ABD \cong \Delta CDB$ because $AB = CD$, $AD = CB$, and the common side BD is equal to itself. Hence, these two triangles are congruent.

Key Concept: Classification of Quadrilaterals

c) Every rectangle is a parallelogram, but not vice versa.
[Solution Description]
Every rectangle is a parallelogram since it has opposite sides parallel and equal. However, not every parallelogram is a rectangle because parallelograms do not necessarily have all angles equal to $90^{\circ}$.

Key Concept: Properties, Angles

b) Rhombus
[Solution Description]
Step 1: Quadrilateral with diagonals bisecting each other is a parallelogram. So, $ABCD$ is initially a parallelogram.
Step 2: Since $\angle AOB = 90°$, the diagonals intersect at right angles. A parallelogram with perpendicular diagonals is either a rhombus or a square.
Step 3: However, without knowing whether all sides are equal or angles are $90°$, we cannot confirm if it is a square. But the given condition guarantees at least rhombus properties.
Step 4: Therefore, $ABCD$ must be a rhombus among the options provided.

Key Concept: Opposite Sides, Diagonals

b) Yes, because the sides satisfy Pythagoras' theorem
[Solution Description]
Step 1: Check if the given sides satisfy the Pythagorean theorem for a right angle. Here, $6^2 + 8^2 = 36 + 64 = 100 = 10^2$.
Step 2: This means the angle between sides $6$ cm and $8$ cm is $90°$.
Step 3: For a parallelogram to be a rectangle, all its angles must be $90°$. Since one angle is already $90°$ and opposite angles in a parallelogram are equal, all angles will be $90°$.
Step 4: Hence, the given conditions make it a rectangle.

Key Concept: Special Cases of Parallelograms

d) Square
[Solution Description]
A quadrilateral with all sides equal and all angles equal to $90^\circ$ is called a square. This is because a square is a special type of rectangle where all sides are equal.

Key Concept: Properties of Quadrilaterals, Venn Diagram

d) Square
[Solution Description]
A quadrilateral with diagonals that are equal in length is either a rectangle or a square. Additionally, if the diagonals bisect each other at $90^\circ$, it must be a square because rectangles have equal diagonals but they do not necessarily bisect each other at $90^\circ$. Only squares satisfy both conditions: equal diagonals and perpendicular bisectors.

Key Concept: Venn Diagram: Relationship between squares, rectangles, and rhombuses

d) Nested circles: Square inside both Rectangle and Rhombus, which are inside Parallelogram.
[Solution Description]
A square is both a rectangle (all angles are $90^\circ$) and a rhombus (all sides equal). A rectangle has opposite sides equal and all angles $90^\circ$, while a rhombus has all sides equal but angles not necessarily $90^\circ$. Thus, the set of squares lies within both the sets of rectangles and rhombuses, which are subsets of parallelograms.

Key Concept: Venn Diagram: Relationship between quadrilaterals

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The Assertion states that every square is a rhombus. This is true because a square has all sides equal, which is the defining property of a rhombus. The Reason states that a square has all sides equal and all angles equal to $90^\circ$, satisfying the definition of a rhombus. This is also correct because having all sides equal is sufficient to be a rhombus, regardless of angle measures. Additionally, the Reason correctly explains why the Assertion is true. Therefore, both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.

Key Concept: Properties of Quadrilaterals

c) Either a Square or a Rhombus.
[Solution Description]
Diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles and also bisect its angles. A square also has this property since it is a special type of rhombus. However, not all quadrilaterals with perpendicular bisecting diagonals are squares—they could also be rhombuses. Rectangles have diagonals that bisect each other but not necessarily at right angles unless they are squares.

Key Concept: Diagonals and side length relationship

b) $2\sqrt{5}$ cm
[Solution Description]
Area of rhombus = $\frac{d_1 \times d_2}{2}$. Let $d_1 = x$ cm, then $d_2 = 2x$ cm.
So, $\frac{x \times 2x}{2} = 16 \implies x^2 = 16 \implies x = 4$ cm.
Thus, $d_1 = 4$ cm, $d_2 = 8$ cm.
Now, half-diagonals are $2$ cm and $4$ cm.
Side length = $\sqrt{2^2 + 4^2} = \sqrt{4 + 16} = \sqrt{20} = 2\sqrt{5}$ cm.

Key Concept: Quadrilaterals with Equal Side Lengths, Properties of Rhombus and Square

d) Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
[Solution Description]
To analyze this assertion-reason pair, let's examine the properties of quadrilaterals with equal side lengths:
1. Assertion states that a quadrilateral with all sides equal must be a square. However, from the syllabus, we know that a rhombus also has all sides equal but does not necessarily have all angles as 90\textdegree. Hence, the assertion is false because there are other quadrilaterals (like rhombuses) with equal side lengths that are not squares.
2. Reason states that the diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at 90\textdegree. This is true as per Property 4 of a rhombus mentioned in the syllabus.
3. Since the assertion is false and the reason is true, the correct answer corresponds to option d).

Key Concept: Adjacent angles, Opposite angles

c) $130^\circ$
[Solution Description]
In a rhombus, adjacent angles add up to $180^\circ$. If one angle is $50^\circ$, then the adjacent angle will be $180^\circ - 50^\circ = 130^\circ$.

Key Concept: Comparison with Square

c) A square has all angles equal to $90^\circ$
[Solution Description]
A square is a special case of a rhombus where all angles are $90^\circ$. Therefore, the key difference lies in the angle measures.

Key Concept: Diagonals of Rhombus, Right Triangles

b) 40 cm
[Solution Description]
All sides of a rhombus are equal, so the perimeter is simply 4 times the side length. Given the side length is 10 cm:
$\text{Perimeter} = 4 \times 10\,\text{cm} = 40\,\text{cm}$
Note that the information about the diagonal is irrelevant for calculating the perimeter.

Key Concept: Properties of Rhombus, Angles in Rhombus

c) $60^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Since diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles, we know $\angle AOD = 90^\circ$. Given $\angle OAD = 30^\circ$, we can find $\angle ADO$ using the sum of angles in triangle $AOD$:
$\angle OAD + \angle ADO + \angle AOD = 180^\circ \implies 30^\circ + \angle ADO + 90^\circ = 180^\circ \implies \angle ADO = 60^\circ$
The diagonal also bisects the angle, so $\angle ADC = 2 \times \angle ADO = 120^\circ$. Then, since adjacent angles in a rhombus are supplementary:
$\angle ABC = 180^\circ - \angle ADC = 180^\circ - 120^\circ = 60^\circ$

Key Concept: Properties of Rhombus, Diagonals

b) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
First, analyze the Assertion: A rhombus has diagonals that are perpendicular bisectors and divide the rhombus into four congruent right-angled triangles. However, unless it is a square, the diagonals are unequal. So, the Assertion is true.
Next, examine the Reason: It states that the diagonals bisect each other at right angles, which is a fundamental property of a rhombus. Hence, the Reason is also true.
Now, check if the Reason explains the Assertion: The fact that diagonals bisect at right angles does not imply they must be unequal (e.g., in a square, they are equal). Therefore, although both statements are true, the Reason does not explain why the diagonals are unequal.
Thus, the correct option is: Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.

Key Concept: Rhombus Properties

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that all sides of a rhombus are equal, which is true because one of the defining properties of a rhombus is that all its sides have the same length. The reason correctly explains this property by stating that a quadrilateral with all sides equal is defined as a rhombus. Therefore, both the assertion and reason are true, and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.

Key Concept: Diagonals of Rhombus

c) $90^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Property 4 states that the diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles ($90^\circ$). Therefore, the angle between the diagonals is $90^\circ$.

Key Concept: Angle properties, External points

c) 60$^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Since $XWZB$ is a straight line, $\angle BXW = 180^\circ$. Triangle $AXB$ is equilateral (since $XA = XB$ and $\angle AXB = 60^\circ$). In rhombus $XYZW$, adjacent angles add up to $180^\circ$ and opposite angles are equal. Let $\angle YXW = y$. Then $\angle WXZ = 180^\circ - y$. Also, $\angle AXW = 60^\circ + y$ (exterior angle). But $\angle AXW$ must equal $\angle BXW - \angle BXA = 180^\circ - 60^\circ = 120^\circ$. Thus $60^\circ + y = 120^\circ$ → $y = 60^\circ$.

Key Concept: Opposite angles, Diagonal properties

b) 60
[Solution Description]
In a rhombus, diagonals bisect each other at $90^\circ$ and also bisect the angles. So $\angle QPR = 2 \times \angle QPO = 60^\circ$. Since all sides are equal, triangle $PQR$ is isosceles with $PQ = QR$. Therefore, $\angle PQR = 180^\circ - 2(30^\circ) = 120^\circ$. The diagonals intersect at right angles, so in triangle $ROQ$, $\angle ROQ = 180^\circ - 90^\circ - 30^\circ = 60^\circ$.

Key Concept: Angle Calculation in Rhombus

d) $120^\circ$
[Solution Description]
In a rhombus, adjacent angles add up to $180^\circ$ and opposite angles are equal. Given $\angle A = 60^\circ$, its adjacent angle $\angle B$ can be found as:
$\angle B = 180^\circ - \angle A = 180^\circ - 60^\circ = 120^\circ$

Key Concept: Construction of Parallelograms

b) At the midpoints of both strips
[Solution Description]
To form a parallelogram, the strips must be joined at their midpoints. The lengths of the strips determine the sides of the parallelogram, but the key property is that opposite sides must be parallel and equal in length, which is ensured when the strips intersect at their midpoints.

Key Concept: Quadrilateral Transformation

a) Kite

[Solution Description]

Extending one diagonal changes the property of equal diagonals. Now, the figure has diagonals that are perpendicular but not equal, which defines a kite.

Key Concept: Quadrilateral Identification

d) Square
[Solution Description]
When two diagonals are perpendicular and of equal length, the quadrilateral formed is a square because all sides and angles are equal.

Key Concept: Diagonals of Quadrilaterals, Properties of Squares and Rhombuses

c) Rhombus
[Solution Description]
The properties described here are:
- Diagonals are perpendicular to each other.
- Diagonals bisect each other.
- Diagonals are not equal in length.
From the given conditions, the quadrilateral cannot be a square because squares have equal-length diagonals. It also cannot be a rectangle since rectangles do not necessarily have perpendicular diagonals. However, a rhombus satisfies all the given conditions: its diagonals are perpendicular bisectors but are not equal in length. Therefore, the quadrilateral must be a rhombus.

Key Concept: Properties of Quadrilaterals

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that a quadrilateral formed by two perpendicular diagonals of equal length is a rectangle. This is true because when diagonals are equal and intersect at $90^\circ$, they form a rectangle as all angles become right angles and opposite sides become equal. The reason states that diagonals of a rectangle are equal in length and bisect each other at $90^\circ$. This is also true as it is a property of rectangles. Further, the reason correctly explains the assertion because the properties mentioned in the reason lead to the conclusion in the assertion.

Key Concept: Quadrilateral Properties, Angle Sum Property

c) $95^\circ$
[Solution Description]
The sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral is always $360^\circ$. Given three angles as $90^\circ$, $90^\circ$, and $85^\circ$, we can find the fourth angle by subtracting the sum of these angles from $360^\circ$.
Calculation: $360^\circ - (90^\circ + 90^\circ + 85^\circ) = 95^\circ$.

Key Concept: Properties of Diagonals in Quadrilaterals

c) Square
[Solution Description]
If the diagonals of a quadrilateral are equal in length, bisect each other, and intersect at $90^\circ$, the quadrilateral must be a square. This is because these conditions ensure all sides are equal and all angles are $90^\circ$.

Key Concept: Joining Triangles to Form Quadrilaterals

c) Rhombus
[Solution Description]
When two equilateral triangles are joined along one side, the resulting figure will have four sides. Each angle of an equilateral triangle is $60^\circ$. When two such triangles are joined, the adjacent angles add up to $120^\circ$. The opposite angles will also be $120^\circ$ each, making the quadrilateral a rhombus but not a square, as the angles are not $90^\circ$.

Key Concept: Constructing quadrilaterals by joining triangles of equal sides

c) Assertion is true, but Reason is false.
[Solution Description]
The Assertion (A) is true because two equilateral triangles of side length 8 cm can indeed be joined along one of their sides to form a quadrilateral (specifically, a rhombus). However, the Reason (R) is false because joining two congruent triangles along their equal sides does not necessarily result in a rectangle; it could also form other types of quadrilaterals such as a rhombus or parallelogram.

Key Concept: Trapezium Angles

d) $110^\circ$
[Solution Description]
In an isosceles trapezium, the base angles on the same side are supplementary ($\angle U + \angle W = 180^\circ$). Given $\angle U = 70^\circ$, we can find $\angle W$ as follows:
$\angle W = 180^\circ - \angle U = 180^\circ - 70^\circ = 110^\circ$

Key Concept: Joining Triangles, Trapezium Properties

c) Isosceles trapezium
[Solution Description]
When two isosceles triangles with sides 8 cm, 8 cm, and 6 cm are joined along their unequal sides (6 cm), the resulting quadrilateral is an isosceles trapezium. In an isosceles trapezium, the non-parallel sides are equal, and the base angles are equal. The diagonals are also equal in length.

Key Concept: Constructing quadrilaterals using equilateral triangles

c) Rhombus
[Solution Description]
When two identical equilateral triangles are joined along one common side, the resulting figure has four sides. Since all sides of the original triangles are equal and they are joined along a common side, the new quadrilateral will have opposite sides equal in length. This makes it a rhombus.

Key Concept: Kite and Trapezium

c) Assertion is true, but Reason is false.
[Solution Description]
The Assertion states that in a kite, the diagonals are perpendicular to each other. This is true because one of the properties of a kite is that its diagonals intersect at right angles. The Reason claims that the diagonals bisect each other at right angles. While it's true that they intersect at right angles, the longer diagonal bisects the shorter one, but not necessarily vice versa. Hence, the Reason is not entirely correct as it implies the diagonals bisect each other equally, which is true only for specific cases like rhombuses. Therefore, Assertion is true, but Reason is false.

Key Concept: Kite Properties

d) All of the above.
[Solution Description]
According to the properties of a kite, diagonal $BD$ bisects angles $\angle ABC$ and $\angle ADC$, bisects diagonal $AC$ at right angles, and makes $AO = OC$. Thus, the correct statement must reflect these properties.

Key Concept: Trapezium angles, Isosceles trapezium properties

c) 80$^\circ$
[Solution Description]
In an isosceles trapezium, the angles adjacent to each base are equal. Thus, $\angle P = \angle Q = 100^\circ$. Since the sum of angles on the same side of a transversal in a trapezium is $180^\circ$, we have $\angle P + \angle S = 180^\circ$. Substituting $\angle P = 100^\circ$, we get $\angle S = 80^\circ$.

Key Concept: Kite Properties

c) $120^\circ$
[Solution Description]
The properties of a kite state that the angles opposite to the equal sides are equal. Given $\angle ABC = 120^\circ$, its opposite angle $\angle ADC$ will also be $120^\circ$.

Key Concept: Definition of Kite

c) A quadrilateral with two pairs of adjacent sides equal
[Solution Description]
A kite is a quadrilateral with two distinct pairs of adjacent sides equal. By definition, if a quadrilateral ABCD has $AB = BC$ and $CD = DA$, then it is a kite.

Key Concept: Classification of Quadrilaterals

a) Every rhombus is a kite, but not every kite is a rhombus.
[Solution Description]
A rhombus is a special case of a kite where all four sides are equal. However, not every kite is a rhombus because a kite only requires two distinct pairs of adjacent sides to be equal.

Key Concept: Congruency in Kite

c) Both sides and angles are equal.
[Solution Description]
In kite ABCD, diagonal BD bisects $\angle ABC$ and $\angle ADC$. Hence, $\angle ABO = \angle CBO$. Also, $AB = BC$ by definition. Since BD is common to both $\Delta AOB$ and $\Delta COB$, they are congruent by SAS (Side-Angle-Side) rule. Therefore, corresponding parts like $AO = OC$ and $\angle AOB = \angle COB$ (both right angles).

Key Concept: Kite Properties

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
In a kite ABCD, where AB = BC and CD = DA, the diagonal BD divides the kite into two congruent triangles $\Delta ABD$ and $\Delta CBD$ by SSS congruency (since AB = BC, AD = DC, and BD is common). This congruence implies that $\angle ABD = \angle CBD$ and $\angle ADB = \angle CDB$, meaning BD bisects both $\angle ABC$ and $\angle ADC$. Additionally, since $\Delta AOB$ and $\Delta COB$ are congruent (by SAS congruency as AB = CB, $\angle ABO = \angle CBO$, and BO is common), AO = OC, proving BD bisects AC. Therefore, both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason correctly explains Assertion.

Key Concept: Isosceles trapezium properties

b) $70^\circ$
[Solution Description]
In an isosceles trapezium, the angles opposite to the equal sides are equal. Therefore, $\angle U = \angle V$. Given that $\angle U = 70^\circ$, it follows that $\angle V$ is also $70^\circ$.

Key Concept: Sum of angles in a quadrilateral

c) $20^\circ$
[Solution Description]
The sum of the interior angles of any quadrilateral is $360^\circ$. Let the fourth angle be $x$. Then:
$105^\circ + 135^\circ + 100^\circ + x = 360^\circ$
Simplifying:
$105 + 135 = 240^\circ$
$240 + 100 = 340^\circ$
$x = 360^\circ - 340^\circ = 20^\circ$
So, the fourth angle is $20^\circ$.

Key Concept: Kite diagonals, Congruency

b) 6 cm
[Solution Description]
Diagonals of a kite intersect at right angles, bisecting one diagonal. Here, PR is bisected by QS, so PO = OR = 4 cm. Using Pythagoras' theorem in $\triangle$PQO: $5^2 = 4^2 + QO^2 \Rightarrow QO = 3$ cm. Thus, full diagonal QS = 2 $\times$ QO = 6 cm.

Key Concept: Isosceles Trapezium: Property Verification

c) The non-parallel sides are equal and the base angles are equal.
[Solution Description]
In an isosceles trapezium, the non-parallel sides are equal in length, and the angles adjacent to each base are equal. This means that if $UVWX$ is an isosceles trapezium with $UV \parallel XW$ and $UX = VW$, then $\angle U = \angle V$.

Key Concept: Properties of Kite

c) Assertion is true, but Reason is false.
[Solution Description]
**Assertion Analysis:**
According to the properties of a kite, one diagonal ($BD$) bisects the angles at its vertices. So, in kite $ABCD$, $BD$ bisects $\angle ABC$ and $\angle ADC$. Thus, Assertion (A) is true.
**Reason Analysis:**
The Reason states that the diagonals of a kite always bisect each other at right angles. However, this is not accurate. Only one diagonal ($BD$) bisects the other ($AC$) at right angles; the reverse is not necessarily true. Therefore, Reason (R) is false.
**Conclusion:**
Since Assertion (A) is true but Reason (R) is false, the correct answer corresponds to option c).

Key Concept: Properties of Trapezium - Angles

c) $110^\circ$
[Solution Description]
In a trapezium with one pair of sides parallel (PQ$\parallel$SR), the sum of consecutive angles on the same side of the legs is $180^\circ$. Therefore:
$\angle P + \angle S = 180^\circ$
Substituting the given value:
$70^\circ + \angle S = 180^\circ \implies \angle S = 110^\circ$
Hence, the measure of $\angle S$ is $110^\circ$.

Key Concept: Angle Relationships in Trapezium

b) $110^\circ$
[Solution Description]
A property of a trapezium states that the sum of adjacent angles on the same side of the non-parallel sides is $180^\circ$. Thus, $\angle P + \angle S = 180^\circ$. Given $\angle P = 70^\circ$, we can calculate $\angle S$ as follows:
$\angle S = 180^\circ - 70^\circ = 110^\circ$

Key Concept: Properties of Kite: Diagonals

c) Assertion is true, but Reason is false.
[Solution Description]
According to the property of a kite, one of the diagonals (the one connecting the vertices with equal adjacent sides) bisects the other diagonal at $90^\circ$ and also bisects the angles at those vertices. However, the diagonals of a kite do not necessarily bisect each other completely; only one diagonal is bisected by the other. Therefore, the Assertion is true, but the Reason is false.
