Key Concept: Definition of Square

c) A quadrilateral with all angles $90^\circ$ and all sides equal.
[Solution Description]
A square is a quadrilateral with all angles equal to $90^\circ$ and all sides of equal length. It also has diagonals that are equal, bisect each other at $90^\circ$, and bisect the angles of the square.

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 $\approx 147.48^\circ$.

Key Concept: Definition of a Rectangle

c) A quadrilateral with all angles equal to $90^\circ$ and opposite sides equal
[Solution Description]
A rectangle is a quadrilateral with all angles equal to $90^\circ$ and opposite sides equal. This matches the definition provided in the syllabus.

Key Concept: Properties of a Rectangle

b) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that all angles in a rectangle are $90°$, which is a fundamental property of rectangles as per the syllabus. The reason provided is that a rectangle is a quadrilateral with opposite sides equal and parallel. While this is also a true statement, it does not explain why the angles are $90°$. Therefore, both statements are true, but the reason does not correctly explain the assertion.

Key Concept: Square vs Rectangle

a) A square has all sides equal, while a rectangle does not.
[Solution Description]
A square is a special type of rectangle where all sides are equal. While all squares are rectangles, not all rectangles are squares. Rectangles only require opposite sides to be equal and all angles to be $90^\circ$.

Key Concept: Properties of Squares

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 $90^\circ$, which is true because the diagonals of a square are perpendicular bisectors. The reason states that the diagonals are equal in length and bisect the angles, which is also true as it's a property of squares. However, the reason does not correctly explain why the diagonals bisect each other at $90^\circ$ (it only mentions their equality and angle bisection). Thus, both statements are true, but the reason is not the correct explanation for the assertion.

Key Concept: Properties of Rectangles

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 rectangle $ABCD$, $AC$ and $BD$, are equal in length, which is a known property of rectangles. Therefore, the assertion is true.
The reason states that the diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other, which is also a known property of rectangles. However, this property does not explain why the diagonals are equal in length—it is an independent property. Thus, the reason is true, but it is not the correct explanation for the assertion.

Key Concept: Square properties

c) All its sides are equal.
[Solution Description]
A square has all the properties of a rectangle (right angles, equal opposite sides, and equal diagonals that bisect each other), but additionally, all its sides are equal, and its diagonals are perpendicular and bisect the angles.

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 Rectangle

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The assertion is true because the diagonals of a rectangle are always equal in length, as proven by the properties of rectangles. The reason is also true because the diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other at their midpoints. Furthermore, the reason correctly explains why the assertion is true, as both properties (equality and bisecting each other) are fundamental to the definition and properties of a rectangle.

Key Concept: Diagonals of Rectangle and Square, Multi-step Solution

c) 26
[Solution Description]
Step 1: In a rectangle, diagonals are equal and bisect each other. So, AO = OC and BO = OD. Since AO = BO, we set $3x + 1 = 5x - 7$.
Step 2: Solve for x: subtract 3x from both sides to get $1 = 2x - 7$. Add 7 to both sides: $8 = 2x$. Divide by 2: $x = 4$.
Step 3: Substitute x back into AO: $AO = 3(4) + 1 = 13$.
Step 4: Diagonal AC is twice AO (since AO = OC): $AC = 2 \times 13 = 26$.

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: Angles between diagonals in a rectangle

c) $90^\circ$
[Solution Description]
The diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other and are equal in length. When they intersect, they form four angles. Since the rectangle has all angles equal to $90^\circ$, the diagonals intersect at right angles. Thus, each angle at the intersection is $90^\circ$.

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: Quadrilaterals, Diagonals of a Rectangle and Square

c) Assertion is true, but Reason is false.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that if diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other at $90^\circ$, the quadrilateral must be a rhombus or square. This is true because a rhombus and square have diagonals intersecting at right angles, while rectangles without equal adjacent sides (non-squares) do not necessarily meet this condition. However, the reason states that a quadrilateral with diagonals bisecting each other at $90^\circ$ has all sides equal, which is only true for rhombuses and squares but not for general quadrilaterals. Therefore, the assertion is true, but the reason is false because it incorrectly generalizes the property to all quadrilaterals instead of specific ones like rhombuses and squares.

Key Concept: Assertion-Reason

d) Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
[Solution Description]
In a rectangle, the diagonals are equal and bisect each other, but they do not necessarily intersect at $90^\circ$ unless it is a square. Thus, Assertion (A) is false. However, Reason (R) is true because diagonals of a rectangle are equal and bisect each other.

Key Concept: Quadrilateral diagonals

c) Square
[Solution Description]
A quadrilateral with equal diagonals that bisect each other at $90^\circ$ is a square because all angles will be $90^\circ$ and all sides will be equal.

Key Concept: Properties of Rectangles, Diagonals

b) 10 cm
[Solution Description]
In a rectangle, the diagonals are equal in length and bisect each other. Given AO = 5 cm, which is half of diagonal AC. Since diagonals are equal, BD = AC. Therefore, BD = 2 * AO = 10 cm.

Key Concept: Diagonals of Quadrilaterals

d) Square
[Solution Description]
If the diagonals of a quadrilateral are equal in length and bisect each other at $90^\circ$, then the quadrilateral is a square. This is because such properties ensure all angles are $90^\circ$ and all sides are equal.

Key Concept: Diagonals of a rectangle

b) 10 cm
[Solution Description]
The diagonals of a rectangle are equal in length. If one diagonal is 10 cm, the other diagonal must also be 10 cm.

Key Concept: Properties of Rectangle Diagonals

b) At the midpoint of both strips
[Solution Description]
The diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other at their midpoints. Therefore, the carpenter should join the strips at their midpoints.

Key Concept: Angles Between Diagonals

c) $90^\circ$
[Solution Description]
For a square, the diagonals not only bisect each other but also intersect at right angles ($90^\circ$). So, the carpenter must ensure the angle between the diagonals is $90^\circ$.

Key Concept: Rectangle and Square Properties, Diagonal Congruence

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
For a quadrilateral to be a square, its diagonals must satisfy three conditions: 1) They must be of equal length, 2) They must bisect each other, and 3) They must intersect at right angles ($90^\circ$). The Assertion states that joining equal-length strips at their midpoints with a $90^\circ$ angle forms a square, which is correct because this setup ensures all three conditions are met. The Reason correctly identifies these properties as sufficient for a quadrilateral to be a square. Therefore, both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason explains Assertion.

Key Concept: Diagonals of Rectangle

d) 8 cm, joined at their midpoints
[Solution Description]
For a quadrilateral to be a rectangle, its diagonals must be equal in length and bisect each other. Given one diagonal is 8 cm, the other must also be 8 cm. The strips should be joined at their midpoints to ensure the diagonals bisect each other.

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: 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 Rectangle

c) The quadrilateral must be a rectangle but not necessarily a square
[Solution Description]
When diagonals of a quadrilateral are equal and bisect each other, it must be a rectangle. However, for rectangles, diagonals should intersect at $90°$ if it's a square, otherwise they form angles not equal to $90°$ unless specified. Here the angle is $60°$, which means it's a rectangle but not necessarily a square.
Step-by-step reasoning:
1) Diagonals being equal and bisecting each other confirms it's a rectangle (Property 4 of rectangles).
2) The angle between diagonals being $60°$ shows it's not a square (where diagonals intersect at $90°$).
3) Thus, the quadrilateral is a rectangle with unequal adjacent sides.

Key Concept: Angle Sum Property of Quadrilateral

c) $115^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Sum of interior angles of a quadrilateral = $360^\circ$.
Let the fourth angle be $x$.
$$ 80^\circ + 95^\circ + 70^\circ + x = 360^\circ$$
$$ 245^\circ + x = 360^\circ$$
$$ x = 115^\circ$$

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

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: Special Case: Square

d) Square
[Solution Description]
A quadrilateral with all sides equal and all angles equal to $90^\circ$ satisfies the definition of a square. Hence, it is a square.

Key Concept: Properties of a Rectangle

b) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that a quadrilateral with all angles equal to $90^\circ$ is always a rectangle, which is true by definition. The reason states that a quadrilateral with diagonals that bisect each other and are equal in length must have all angles equal to $90^\circ$. While this is also true, the reason does not correctly explain the assertion because the assertion is about angles, whereas the reason is about diagonals. Therefore, both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.

Key Concept: Parallelogram angles

d) $120^\circ$
[Solution Description]
In a parallelogram, adjacent angles are supplementary, meaning they add up to $180^\circ$.
Given $\angle P = 60^\circ$, then $\angle Q = 180^\circ - 60^\circ = 120^\circ$.

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 Angles

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
A quadrilateral can indeed be divided into two triangles by drawing one diagonal. The sum of angles in each triangle is $180^\circ$, so the total sum of angles for both triangles is $360^\circ$. Since the angles of the triangles collectively form the angles of the quadrilateral, the sum of the quadrilateral's angles must also be $360^\circ$. Thus, both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true, and R correctly explains why A is true.

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: Angles formed by diagonals in a quadrilateral

c) 360°
[Solution Description]
The sum of angles in the first triangle is $40° + 60° + 80° = 180°$.
The sum of angles in the second triangle is $50° + 70° + 60° = 180°$.
Adding these gives the total sum of angles in the quadrilateral: $180° + 180° = 360°$.

Key Concept: Parallelogram angles

c) $110^\circ$
[Solution Description]
In a parallelogram, adjacent angles are supplementary (add up to $180^\circ$). Given $∠A = 70^\circ$, then $∠B = 180^\circ - 70^\circ = 110^\circ$.

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

c) $360^\circ$
[Solution Description]
The sum of all angles in any quadrilateral is always $360^\circ$. This can be derived by dividing the quadrilateral into two triangles and adding their angle sums ($180^\circ + 180^\circ = 360^\circ$).

Key Concept: Sum of angles in a quadrilateral

b) $80^\circ$
[Solution Description]
The sum of all four angles in a quadrilateral is $360^\circ$. Given three angles as $90^\circ$, $90^\circ$, and $100^\circ$, let the fourth angle be $x$. Then:
$90^\circ + 90^\circ + 100^\circ + x = 360^\circ$
$280^\circ + x = 360^\circ$
$x = 80^\circ$
So, the fourth angle measures $80^\circ$.

Key Concept: Properties of quadrilaterals with three right angles

b) $90^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Since the sum of angles in a quadrilateral is $360^\circ$, if three angles are $90^\circ$ each, the fourth angle must be $360^\circ - (3 \times 90^\circ) = 90^\circ$.

Key Concept: Quadrilateral angles, diagonal properties

c) The fourth angle must be $90^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Let's analyze the given quadrilateral PQRS with three right angles (let's say $\angle P = \angle Q = \angle R = 90^\circ$) and diagonals intersecting at O forming angle POQ = $60^\circ$.
Since sum of angles in any quadrilateral is $360^\circ$, we have:
$\angle P + \angle Q + \angle R + \angle S = 360^\circ$
Substituting known values:
$90^\circ + 90^\circ + 90^\circ + \angle S = 360^\circ$
$270^\circ + \angle S = 360^\circ$
Therefore, $\angle S = 90^\circ$.
The information about diagonal intersection angle doesn't affect the angle sum property. Hence, the fourth angle must also be $90^\circ$.

Key Concept: Definition of Parallelogram

c) Both pairs of opposite sides are parallel.
[Solution Description]
A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with both pairs of opposite sides parallel and equal, opposite angles equal, adjacent angles supplementary, and diagonals bisecting each other.

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: Properties of Parallelograms, Supplementary Angles

d) $120^\circ$
[Solution Description] In a parallelogram, adjacent angles are supplementary, which means they add up to $180^\circ$. Given $\angle A = 60^\circ$, we can find $\angle B$ using the property:
$\angle A + \angle B = 180^\circ \implies 60^\circ + \angle B = 180^\circ \implies \angle B = 120^\circ$

Key Concept: Properties of Parallelograms

c) $115^\circ$
[Solution Description]
In a parallelogram, opposite angles are equal and adjacent angles are supplementary. Given $\angle A = 65^\circ$, $\angle B$ will be $180^\circ - 65^\circ = 115^\circ$. Since $\angle D$ is opposite to $\angle B$, $\angle D = 115^\circ$.

Key Concept: Congruent Triangles in Parallelogram

c) The opposite sides are equal and parallel.
[Solution Description]
The congruence of triangles $WXY$ and $YZW$ implies certain properties of the parallelogram $WXYZ$.
For triangles $WXY$ and $YZW$ to be congruent, their corresponding sides and angles must be equal. Specifically:
1. Opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal and parallel, so $WX = YZ$ and $XY = WZ$.
2. Diagonally opposite angles in a parallelogram are equal, so $\angle WXY = \angle YZW$ and $\angle XYW = \angle ZWY$.
This means the diagonal $WY$ divides the parallelogram into two congruent triangles. Additionally, the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other but do not necessarily have to be equal in length.
Therefore, the correct property deduced from the given information is that the opposite sides of $WXYZ$ are equal and parallel.

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: Assertion-Reason Question

b) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The Assertion states that the opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal, which is one of the fundamental properties of a parallelogram as given in the syllabus. The Reason states that a parallelogram has its opposite sides parallel, which is the definition of a parallelogram. While both statements are true, the Reason does not explain why the opposite sides are equal; it merely defines what a parallelogram is. Therefore, the correct option is b).

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: Diagonal Properties

c) Diagonals are equal and bisect each other.
[Solution Description]
The diagonals of a rectangle are equal in length and bisect each other. This is a key property that distinguishes rectangles from general parallelograms.

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 of Rectangles

c) All angles are equal to $90^{\circ}$ and diagonals are equal.
[Solution Description]
A rectangle is a parallelogram with all angles equal to $90^{\circ}$. It satisfies all properties of a parallelogram, and additionally, its diagonals are equal in length.

Key Concept: Rectangles as a type of parallelogram, Diagonals in rectangles and parallelograms

d) Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that the diagonals of a rectangle are perpendicular to each other. However, this is not a property of rectangles. The correct property is that the diagonals of a rectangle are equal in length and bisect each other but are not necessarily perpendicular. They are perpendicular only in the case of a square, which is a special type of rectangle. Therefore, the Assertion is false. The reason states that the diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other at $90^{\circ}$, which is also false because while they do bisect each other, it is not necessary that they do so at $90^{\circ}$. Hence, both the Assertion and Reason are false. Thus, none of the given options is correct, but among the provided options, option d) best matches since the Reason is partially true (diagonals bisect each other, though not always at $90^{\circ}$). Note: There might be an issue with the question design as all options involve truth values that don't perfectly match.

Key Concept: Special Cases of Parallelograms

c) All its angles are $90^\circ$
[Solution Description]
A rectangle is a special parallelogram where all angles are $90^\circ$. While it has all properties of a parallelogram, the defining feature is its right angles. Thus, the correct answer is "All its angles are $90^\circ$."

Key Concept: Venn Diagram Relationships

d) Square
[Solution Description]
A square has all the properties of both a rectangle and a rhombus. It has all angles equal to $90^\circ$ (like a rectangle) and all sides equal (like a rhombus). Therefore, the correct answer is Square.

Key Concept: Venn Diagram, Properties of Quadrilaterals

d) Parallelogram
[Solution Description]
The quadrilateral has both pairs of opposite sides equal and parallel, which means it is a parallelogram. Since the diagonals are not perpendicular and do not bisect the angles, it cannot be a rhombus or square. It also does not have all angles equal to $90^\circ$, so it is not a rectangle. Therefore, it is a general parallelogram.

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: Properties of Rhombus

a) 50°, 50°, 130°, 130°
[Solution Description]
In a rhombus, opposite angles are equal, and adjacent angles add up to 180°. Given one angle is 50°, its opposite angle is also 50°. The adjacent angle will be $180° - 50° = 130°$. Therefore, the angles are 50°, 130°, 50°, and 130°.

Key Concept: Properties of a Rhombus

a) All sides are equal
[Solution Description]
A rhombus has all sides equal, opposite sides parallel, adjacent angles summing to $180^\circ$, and diagonals that bisect each other. From Property 1, we know all sides are equal.

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: Diagonals of Rhombus

b) They bisect each other at right angles.
[Solution Description]
The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles and also bisect the angles of the rhombus. However, they are not necessarily equal in length.

Key Concept: Properties of Rhombus, Angle Relationships

c) $180^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Opposite angles in a rhombus are equal, so $\angle PQR = \angle PSR = 110^\circ$. Adjacent angles in a rhombus are supplementary, so $\angle QPS = 180^\circ - \angle PQR = 70^\circ$. Therefore, the sum is:
$\angle QPS + \angle RSP = 70^\circ + 110^\circ = 180^\circ$

Key Concept: Adjacent Angles in a Rhombus

d) $110^\circ$
[Solution Description]
In a rhombus, adjacent angles are supplementary, meaning they add up to $180^\circ$. Given $\angle A = 70^\circ$, we can find $\angle B$ using the property of adjacent angles:
$\angle A + \angle B = 180^\circ$
$70^\circ + \angle B = 180^\circ$
$\angle B = 180^\circ - 70^\circ = 110^\circ$
Therefore, the correct answer is option d).

Key Concept: Diagonals of a Rhombus

c) $90^\circ$
[Solution Description]
The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles ($90^\circ$).

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: Diagonal Properties

c) They intersect at $90^\circ$.
[Solution Description]
The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles ($90^\circ$) and also bisect the angles of the rhombus. Thus, the correct statement is that they intersect at $90^\circ$.

Key Concept: Properties of Rhombus

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
A rhombus has the property that its diagonals bisect each other at $90^{\circ}$. This means the diagonals intersect at right angles and divide each other into two equal parts. Additionally, the diagonals divide the rhombus into four congruent right-angled triangles because all sides of a rhombus are equal, and the diagonals bisect the angles. Therefore, both the Assertion and Reason are true, and the Reason correctly explains the Assertion.

Key Concept: Side length, Diagonal relationship

c) 6 cm
[Solution Description]
In a rhombus, the diagonals bisect each other at right angles and divide the rhombus into four right-angled triangles. Let's denote half of diagonal 1 as $d_1/2 = 4$ cm and half of diagonal 2 as $d_2/2 = x$ cm. Using Pythagoras theorem: $(d_1/2)^2 + (d_2/2)^2 = \text{side}^2$ → $4^2 + x^2 = 5^2$ → $16 + x^2 = 25$ → $x^2 = 9$ → $x = 3$ cm. Thus the full diagonal length is $6$ cm.

Key Concept: Properties of Rhombus

c) They are equal.
[Solution Description]
According to Property 3 of a rhombus, the opposite angles are equal. For example, if one angle is $50^\circ$, its opposite angle will also be $50^\circ$.

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: Sum of Angles in a Quadrilateral

b) $100^{\circ}$
[Solution Description]
The sum of all interior angles of a quadrilateral is $360^{\circ}$. Given three angles:
$70^{\circ} + 110^{\circ} + 80^{\circ} = 260^{\circ}$
The fourth angle is calculated as:
$360^{\circ} - 260^{\circ} = 100^{\circ}$

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: 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: Geoboard Activity, Quadrilateral Properties

d) Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that such a quadrilateral must be a square, but the reason only guarantees it is a rectangle (as per syllabus observations). For it to be a square, additional conditions (all sides equal) are needed. Thus, the assertion is false, but the reason is true as it correctly describes properties leading to a rectangle.

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: Diagonal Properties

c) It is a square
[Solution Description]
A quadrilateral with diagonals that are equal and perpendicular must be a square because it satisfies all properties of a square: equal sides, equal angles, and diagonals that bisect each other at 90\textdegree.

Key Concept: Properties of Quadrilaterals

c) Square
[Solution Description]
The diagonals of a quadrilateral are equal in length and bisect each other at 90\textdegree. This property is satisfied by a square, where all sides and angles are equal.

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: 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: Construction of quadrilaterals using triangles

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
When two equilateral triangles are joined along a common side, the resulting quadrilateral will have all four sides equal because each side of the quadrilateral is either a side of the original equilateral triangle or the newly formed side from joining. Since an equilateral triangle has all three sides equal, this property ensures that all sides of the quadrilateral are equal. Moreover, the opposite angles of the quadrilateral will be equal due to the symmetry of the equilateral triangles. Therefore, the quadrilateral formed is a rhombus as it satisfies the conditions mentioned in the Reason. Thus, both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason correctly explains the Assertion.

Key Concept: Joining Triangles, Kite Properties

d) Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
[Solution Description]
Consider two scalene triangles ABC and CDA with sides 6 cm, 9 cm, and 12 cm. When joined along the 9 cm side (AC), the quadrilateral ABCD will have AB = CD = 6 cm and BC = DA = 12 cm. This satisfies the definition of a kite ($AB = BC$ is false here; correct condition for kite is $AB = AD$ and $CB = CD$). The assertion incorrectly states the condition for a kite, while the reason provides the correct property. Thus, Assertion is false but Reason is true.

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 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: Properties of a Kite

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
A kite is defined as a quadrilateral with two distinct pairs of adjacent sides equal. One of its properties is that the diagonals intersect at right angles (perpendicular). Therefore, both the Assertion and Reason are true, and the Reason correctly explains why the Assertion is true.

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: Kite construction, side lengths

c) $30$ cm
[Solution Description]
A kite must satisfy the triangle inequality for each pair of triangles formed by the diagonals. For sides 6 cm and 9 cm, let the shorter sides be repeated.
Then, the sides are 6, 6, 9, 9, giving a perimeter of $6 + 6 + 9 + 9 = 30$ cm. This satisfies all geometric constraints.

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: Kite Properties

d) Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that the diagonals of a kite bisect each other at right angles. According to the properties of a kite, one diagonal bisects the other and is perpendicular to it, but only one diagonal gets bisected (not both). Hence, the assertion is false.
The reason states that a kite has two pairs of adjacent sides equal, which is true as per the definition of a kite. Therefore, the assertion is false, but the reason is true.

Key Concept: Properties of Kite

c) The other diagonal can be of any length.
[Solution Description]
Given that in a kite, one diagonal bisects the other perpendicularly. Thus, if one diagonal (BD) is given as 6 cm, it bisects the other diagonal (AC) but does not specify its length. The other diagonal can vary based on the side lengths and angles of the kite.

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: Trapezium angle sum, Supplementary angles

b) $110^\circ$ and $70^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Let trapezium be ABCD with AB $\parallel$ CD. Given $\angle A = 110^\circ$ and $\angle B = 70^\circ$. Angles on same side of leg are supplementary: $\angle A + \angle D = 180^\circ \Rightarrow \angle D = 70^\circ$; $\angle B + \angle C = 180^\circ \Rightarrow \angle C = 110^\circ$. Remaining angles are $110^\circ$ and $70^\circ$.

Key Concept: Trapezium angles, Isosceles trapezium properties

b) $105^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Property of isosceles trapezium states that angles adjacent to each base are equal. Here, $\angle A = \angle B = 75^\circ$. Sum of angles on same side of leg in trapezium is $180^\circ$, so $\angle D = 180^\circ - 75^\circ = 105^\circ$. Since it's isosceles, $\angle C = \angle D = 105^\circ$.

Key Concept: Trapezium Angle Property

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
According to the property of trapezium, when one pair of opposite sides is parallel (here $AB \parallel CD$), the sum of the angles on the same side of the transversal is $180^\circ$. Therefore, $\angle A + \angle D = 180^\circ$ and $\angle B + \angle C = 180^\circ$. The reason given is also true as it states the general property of angles formed by a transversal intersecting two parallel lines. Further, the reason correctly explains why the assertion is true.

Key Concept: Kite and Trapezium properties, Diagonals

a) $40$ cm
[Solution Description]
Let the kite be $ABCD$ with diagonals $AC$ and $BD$ intersecting at $O$.
Given, $AC = 16$ cm and $BD = 12$ cm.
Since diagonals of a kite intersect at right angles and one diagonal is bisected, assume $AO = OC = \frac{16}{2} = 8$ cm, and $BO = OD = \frac{12}{2} = 6$ cm.
Now, using Pythagoras' theorem in triangles $AOB$ and $BOC$:
For triangle $AOB$, $AB = \sqrt{AO^2 + BO^2} = \sqrt{8^2 + 6^2} = \sqrt{64 + 36} = \sqrt{100} = 10$ cm.
Similarly, for triangle $BOC$, $BC = \sqrt{BO^2 + CO^2} = \sqrt{6^2 + 8^2} = \sqrt{36 + 64} = \sqrt{100} = 10$ cm.
For a kite, $AB = BC$ and $CD = DA$.
So, the perimeter $P = AB + BC + CD + DA = 10 + 10 + 10 + 10 = 40$ cm.
However, looking back at the problem, it's given that only one diagonal is bisected (which is $AC$ in our assumption). But in a kite, both diagonals have specific properties: one is bisected ($AC$) and the other is perpendicularly bisected ($BD$).
But according to the problem statement, the perimeter calculation remains consistent as $AB = BC$ and $CD = DA$ due to the kite's properties.

Key Concept: Diagonals of an Isosceles Trapezium

d) Diagonals are equal in length
[Solution Description]
One of the key properties of an isosceles trapezium is that its diagonals are equal in length. Therefore, $UW = VX$.

Key Concept: Kite Diagonal Properties, Trapezium Angle Relationships

c) Assertion is true, but Reason is false.
[Solution Description]
For assertion (A), in a kite, one diagonal (main diagonal) is known to be perpendicular to the other and bisects it. This property makes $\angle AOB = 90^\circ$ true because diagonals of a kite are perpendicular by definition. Therefore, Assertion (A) is true.
For reason (R), the diagonals of a trapezium do not necessarily bisect each other unless it is an isosceles trapezium. Even in an isosceles trapezium, diagonals are equal but they only bisect each other if additional conditions are met. Hence, Reason (R) is false.
Thus, Assertion (A) is true, but Reason (R) is false.

Key Concept: Properties of Isosceles Trapezium - Angles

b) $115^\circ$
[Solution Description]
In an isosceles trapezium, the angles opposite to the equal sides are equal. Let these angles be $65^\circ$ each. The sum of all angles in any quadrilateral is $360^\circ$. Let the remaining two angles be $x$ each since they must also be equal.
Calculation:
$65^\circ + 65^\circ + x + x = 360^\circ \implies 130^\circ + 2x = 360^\circ \implies 2x = 230^\circ \implies x = 115^\circ$
Thus, each of the other two angles measures $115^\circ$.
