Key Concept: Properties of Squares and 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 a square bisect its angles, which is true as per the properties of a square. The reason states that a square has all sides equal and diagonals perpendicular to each other, which is also true. However, the reason does not explain why the diagonals of a square bisect its angles. The correct explanation would involve the fact that the diagonals of a square are angle bisectors due to the congruence of triangles formed by the diagonals and sides of the square. Thus, both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.

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: Properties of a Rectangle

b) The diagonals are equal and bisect each other
[Solution Description]
The diagonals of a rectangle are equal and bisect each other, as stated in the properties of a rectangle.

Key Concept: Properties of Rectangle

c) Assertion is true, but Reason is false.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that in a rectangle, the diagonals are equal and bisect each other. This is true because it is one of the key properties of a rectangle as per the syllabus.
The reason claims that if the diagonals of a quadrilateral are equal and bisect each other, then the quadrilateral must be a rectangle. While this is true for parallelograms (since rectangles are a type of parallelogram), it is not necessarily true for all quadrilaterals. For example, an isosceles trapezoid has equal diagonals but is not a rectangle. Hence, the reason is false.
Therefore, Assertion is true, but Reason is false.

Key Concept: Construction of a Square

b) 50 cm$^2$
[Solution Description]
Given the diagonal $d = 10$ cm. Using the relationship $d = s\sqrt{2}$, we find the side length $s$ as $s = \frac{d}{\sqrt{2}} = \frac{10}{\sqrt{2}} = 5\sqrt{2}$ cm. The area of the square is $s^2 = (5\sqrt{2})^2 = 25 \times 2 = 50$ cm$^2$.

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: Diagonals, Opposite Sides

b) 5 cm
[Solution Description]
First, find the length of diagonal $AC$ using the Pythagorean theorem since all angles in a rectangle are $90^\circ$.
$AC = \sqrt{AB^2 + AD^2} = \sqrt{6^2 + 8^2} = \sqrt{36 + 64} = \sqrt{100} = 10 \text{ cm}$
Since the diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other, $AO$ is half of $AC$.
$AO = \frac{AC}{2} = \frac{10}{2} = 5 \text{ cm}$

Key Concept: Diagonals of a Rectangle

b) 5 cm
[Solution Description]
The diagonals of a rectangle are equal in length and bisect each other. Given $PR = 10$ cm, which means each half-diagonal $PO$ and $OR$ will be half of $PR$.
$PO = \frac{PR}{2} = \frac{10}{2} = 5 \text{ cm}$
Therefore, the correct answer is 5 cm.

Key Concept: Diagonals of a Square

c) 90°
[Solution Description]
In a square, the diagonals bisect each other at right angles. Therefore, the angle between the diagonals is 90°.

Key Concept: Diagonals of a Rectangle

d) The point $O$ divides both diagonals into two equal parts.
[Solution Description]
The diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other, so the point of intersection $O$ divides both diagonals into two equal parts. Each diagonal will be split into two segments of equal length.

Key Concept: Rectangle and Rhombus Properties, Non-Straightforward Path

c) Rhombus
[Solution Description]
Step 1: Diagonals bisecting each other imply it could be a rectangle, rhombus, or square.
Step 2: Diagonals bisecting at right angles eliminate rectangles (their diagonals are equal but don’t bisect at right angles unless it's a square).
Step 3: Unequal diagonals further eliminate squares (their diagonals are equal).
Conclusion: It must be a rhombus (diagonals bisect at right angles and are unequal).

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: Angles between diagonals of a rectangle

d) Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
[Solution Description]
In a rectangle, diagonals are equal in length and bisect each other, forming two pairs of isosceles triangles. For any angle $x$ between the diagonals, the base angles of these isosceles triangles can be calculated as $a = 90^\circ - \frac{x}{2}$ and $b = \frac{x}{2}$. The sum of the angles around the point of intersection must satisfy $a + b = 90^\circ$, leading to all four angles being $90^\circ$. However, while the diagonals of a rectangle are equal and bisect each other (Reason), this property alone does not necessarily imply that they intersect at $90^\circ$ (Assertion is false). Only in special cases like squares or rhombuses do diagonals intersect at $90^\circ$.

Key Concept: Diagonals, Angles in Quadrilaterals

c) $90^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Since $AO = BO = CO = DO$, the triangles $AOB$, $BOC$, $COD$, and $DOA$ are all isosceles. Given that the angle between the diagonals ($\angle AOB$) is $60^\circ$, we can find the base angles of $\triangle AOB$ as follows:
Let the base angles be $a$.
$2a + 60 = 180 \implies 2a = 120 \implies a = 60.$
So, $\angle OAB = \angle OBA = 60^\circ$.
Similarly, in $\triangle BOC$, $\angle BOC = 120^\circ$ (since angles around point $O$ add to $360^\circ$). The base angles ($b$) of $\triangle BOC$ are:
$2b + 120 = 180 \implies 2b = 60 \implies b = 30.$
Thus, $\angle ABC = \angle ABO + \angle OBC = 60^\circ + 30^\circ = 90^\circ$.

Key Concept: Angles between diagonals of a rectangle

a) $50^\circ, 50^\circ, 130^\circ$
[Solution Description]
In a rectangle, the diagonals bisect each other and form two pairs of equal angles. Given one angle as $x = 50^\circ$, the other angles will be $50^\circ$, $180^\circ - 50^\circ = 130^\circ$, and $130^\circ$ as they must add up to $360^\circ$ in total.

Key Concept: Angles between diagonals of a rhombus

d) $120^\circ$
[Solution Description]
The diagonals of a rhombus bisect the vertex angles and intersect at $90^\circ$ in a standard case. However, given an intersection angle of $60^\circ$, we calculate:
For triangle formed by half-diagonals, let the base angles be $a$.
Then, $a + a + 60^\circ = 180^\circ$ implies $2a = 120^\circ$, so $a = 60^\circ$.
Thus, each interior angle adjacent to the $60^\circ$ angle is $60^\circ + 60^\circ = 120^\circ$.

Key Concept: Quadrilateral Properties, Congruence

a) Yes, because all sides and angles are equal.
[Solution Description]
A quadrilateral with four equal sides is a rhombus. If one angle is $90°$, then by properties of a rhombus, all angles must be $90°$ (since opposite angles are equal and consecutive angles are supplementary). Hence, it is a square.

Key Concept: Construction and reasoning about squares

d) Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
[Solution Description]
The assertion claims that a quadrilateral with equal diagonals bisecting each other at 90° must be a square. The reason states that such conditions ensure all sides are equal and all angles are 90°.
First, consider the properties of a square:
- Diagonals are equal in length.
- Diagonals bisect each other at 90°.
- All sides are equal.
- All angles are 90°.
However, a rhombus also has diagonals that bisect each other at 90° and all sides equal, but its angles are not necessarily 90°. Hence, the assertion is partially correct but not entirely, as the given conditions could also describe a rhombus unless the angles are specified as 90°. The reason correctly explains the properties but fails to distinguish between a square and a rhombus uniquely. Thus, the assertion is false because the conditions alone do not guarantee a square, while the reason is true.

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: 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: Diagonals of Square

a) Diagonals must be perpendicular
[Solution Description]
For a quadrilateral to be a square, its diagonals must not only be equal in length and bisect each other but also intersect at 90\degree. This ensures all sides are equal and all angles are 90\degree.

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: 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: 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 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 as per Property 4 of squares. The reason states that a square is a special type of rectangle with all sides equal, which is also true (Property 1 of squares). However, the reason does not explain why the diagonals bisect at $90^\circ$; it only describes another property of squares. Therefore, both statements are true, but the reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

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: Rectangle Construction

d) Connect sticks at midpoints and join ends with thread
[Solution Description]
To construct a right angle using two equal-length sticks and thread:
1) Join the sticks at their midpoints (5 cm from either end) forming an X-shape.
2) Use the thread to connect all four ends of the sticks sequentially - this forms a quadrilateral.
3) Since diagonals are equal and bisect each other, the quadrilateral is a rectangle (Property 4).
4) All angles in a rectangle are $90°$, so the angle formed by adjacent sides is a right angle.
Key points:
- Equal-length sticks act as diagonals.
- Bisecting them ensures rectangle formation.
- Rectangle guarantees right angles at vertices.

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: 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: 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 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: Assertion-Reason

b) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
Let's verify both statements:
1. Assertion: In a parallelogram, adjacent angles are supplementary (sum to $180^\circ$) because they are consecutive interior angles formed by a transversal intersecting parallel sides. This is true.
2. Reason: Opposite angles in a parallelogram are equal due to its properties. This is also true.
However, the equality of opposite angles does not explain why adjacent angles are supplementary. They are separate properties derived from different geometric principles.

Key Concept: Diagonals of a quadrilateral

b) Opposite sides are equal
[Solution Description]
If the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other, then the opposite sides of the quadrilateral are equal in length. This property is characteristic of parallelograms, rectangles, rhombuses, and squares.

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: Angles in a Quadrilateral

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The sum of the given angles is calculated as follows:
$70^\circ + 80^\circ + 100^\circ + 110^\circ = 360^\circ$.
Since the total equals $360^\circ$, the quadrilateral is valid, confirming the Assertion (A).
The Reason (R) states the fundamental property that the sum of interior angles in any quadrilateral is always $360^\circ$, which justifies why the given quadrilateral is valid. Hence, both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason correctly explains Assertion.

Key Concept: Sum of angles in a quadrilateral

c) 110°
[Solution Description]
The sum of all angles in any quadrilateral is $360°$. Given three angles as $80°$, $100°$, and $70°$, let the fourth angle be $x$.
Therefore, $80° + 100° + 70° + x = 360°$.
Adding the known angles: $250° + x = 360°$.
Subtracting $250°$ from both sides: $x = 110°$.

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: 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: Impossible quadrilateral configuration

c) 120°, 110°, 100°, 20°
[Solution Description]
For a valid quadrilateral, the sum of all four angles must be $360°$.
Checking each option:
Option a) $90° + 90° + 90° + 90° = 360°$ (valid).
Option b) $100° + 80° + 70° + 110° = 360°$ (valid).
Option c) $120° + 110° + 100° + 20° = 350° \neq 360°$ (invalid).
Option d) $95° + 85° + 90° + 90° = 360°$ (valid).
Thus, option c does not satisfy the sum condition.

Key Concept: Quadrilateral construction, angle sum

c) $100^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Using the angle sum property of quadrilaterals:
$\angle A + \angle B + \angle C + \angle D = 360^\circ$
Substituting known values:
$80^\circ + 90^\circ + 90^\circ + \angle D = 360^\circ$
$260^\circ + \angle D = 360^\circ$
Therefore, $\angle D = 100^\circ$
The side length AB = 5 cm is given but doesn't affect the angle calculation as angle sum is independent of side lengths in this case.

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: 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: 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: 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: 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: 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: Properties of Parallelogram

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
In a parallelogram, the adjacent angles add up to $180^\circ$ because they are consecutive interior angles formed by a transversal intersecting two parallel lines. This property allows us to deduce that the opposite angles must be equal: if one angle is $x$, then its adjacent angle is $180^\circ - x$. The angle opposite to $x$ will also be $x$ because it is adjacent to $180^\circ - x$ ($180^\circ - (180^\circ - x) = x$). Therefore, both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason correctly explains why the opposite angles in a parallelogram are equal.

Key Concept: Adjacent Angles in Parallelogram

c) $120°$
[Solution Description]
Property 3 of parallelograms states that adjacent angles add up to $180°$. So, if one angle is $60°$, the adjacent angle will be $180° - 60° = 120°$.

Key Concept: Diagonals of a parallelogram

b) They bisect each other.
[Solution Description]
The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other but are not necessarily equal in length. Only in special cases like rectangles or squares, the diagonals are equal. Hence, the correct statement is that the diagonals bisect each other.

Key Concept: Properties of Parallelogram

b) $5\,cm$
[Solution Description]
According to Property 1 of parallelograms, opposite sides are equal. Hence, if $AB = 5\,cm$, then $CD$ must also be equal to $5\,cm$.

Key Concept: Definition of Parallelogram

c) A quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel
[Solution Description]
A parallelogram is defined as a quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel.

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: 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: 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: Diagonals, Angles

b) 35°
[Solution Description]
Step 1: Draw rectangle $PQRS$ with diagonals $PR$ and $QS$ intersecting at $O$.
Step 2: In rectangles, diagonals are equal and bisect each other. Thus, $OP = OR = OQ = OS$.
Step 3: Triangle $POS$ has sides $OP = OS$, making it an isosceles triangle.
Step 4: Given $\angle POS = 70°$, the remaining angles in $\triangle POS$ must sum to $110°$. Since $OP = OS$, $\angle PSO = \angle OPS = 55°$ each.
Step 5: Now, $\angle OSR = 90° - \angle PSO = 35°$ because $PSR$ is a right angle ($90°$) in the rectangle.

Key Concept: Venn Diagram of Quadrilaterals

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The Assertion states that a square is both a rhombus and a rectangle because it meets the criteria of all three types of quadrilaterals. This is true since a square has all sides equal (rhombus property), all angles equal to $90^\circ$ (rectangle property), and opposite sides parallel (parallelogram property). The Reason explains that in a Venn diagram, squares lie in the intersection of rhombuses and rectangles, which correctly represents their hierarchical relationship. Since a square inherits properties from both rhombuses and rectangles, the Venn diagram must show this overlap, making the Reason the correct explanation of the Assertion.

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: 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) Rhombus
[Solution Description]
A rhombus has diagonals that are perpendicular bisectors of each other. This is one of its defining properties. Hence, the correct answer is Rhombus.

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 Rhombus and Square

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, which is true because a square has all sides equal, satisfying the definition of a rhombus. The Reason states that a rhombus with all angles equal to $90^\circ$ is a square, which is also true as this defines a square. Moreover, the Reason correctly explains why the Assertion is true, since it describes the condition under which a rhombus becomes a square.

Key Concept: Properties of Rhombus, Diagonal properties

b) 20 cm
[Solution Description]
A rhombus has diagonals that bisect each other at $90^\circ$. Given $AC = 8$ cm, so $AO = CO = 4$ cm. Given $BD = 6$ cm, so $BO = DO = 3$ cm. Using the Pythagorean theorem in $\triangle AOB$:
$AB = \sqrt{AO^2 + BO^2} = \sqrt{4^2 + 3^2} = \sqrt{16 + 9} = \sqrt{25} = 5$ cm.
Since all sides of a rhombus are equal, perimeter $= 4 \times AB = 4 \times 5 = 20$ cm.

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: Diagonals of a Rhombus

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

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: Adjacent Angles of a Rhombus

c) $180^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Adjacent angles in a rhombus add up to $180^\circ$.

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: Construction of Rhombus

c) All sides must be equal.
[Solution Description]
A rhombus has all four sides of equal length. Therefore, for construction, we must ensure that all sides are equal.

Key Concept: Properties of Rhombus - Diagonals and Angles

b) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]

The assertion is true because the diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles, that is, $90^\circ$. The reason is also true because the diagonals of a rhombus bisect the opposite angles. However, the angle-bisecting property does not directly explain why the diagonals intersect at $90^\circ$. Therefore, both statements are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.

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: Extending Diagonals of Quadrilaterals

b) Square
[Solution Description]
Initially, the square has diagonals that are equal in length and perpendicular bisectors. Extending both diagonals equally by 2 cm on both sides means:
- The new endpoints are symmetrically placed around the original square.
- The distance between any two adjacent new vertices will be equal due to symmetry.
- The angles at the vertices remain 90 degrees because the extensions preserve the perpendicularity of the diagonals.
Thus, the resulting quadrilateral formed by joining the new endpoints is another square, as all sides and angles remain equal and perpendicular.

Key Concept: Properties of Quadrilaterals

c) Assertion is true, but Reason is false.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that a quadrilateral with diagonals intersecting at right angles and equal in length is a square. This is true because such properties are unique to squares among quadrilaterals. However, the reason claims that a quadrilateral with all sides equal and diagonals equal in length must be a rectangle. This is false because rhombuses also have all sides equal, but their diagonals are not necessarily equal unless they are squares.
Therefore, the assertion is true, but the reason is false.

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: 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: 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: Quadrilateral Transformation

b) Kite
[Solution Description]
When one diagonal of a square is extended equally on both sides, the angles between the sides change, but the adjacent sides remain equal. This results in a kite, as two pairs of adjacent sides are equal, but not all four sides.

Key Concept: Geoboard Activity: Properties of Quadrilaterals

c) Square
[Solution Description]
When two diagonals are equal in length and perpendicular to each other, joining their endpoints forms a square. This is because all sides become equal due to the properties of symmetry and the right angles between the sides.

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: Constructing quadrilaterals using scalene triangles

d) Parallelogram
[Solution Description]
When two identical scalene triangles (with sides 6 cm, 9 cm, and 12 cm) are joined along their 6 cm sides, the resulting quadrilateral will have sides measuring 9 cm, 12 cm, 12 cm, and 9 cm. Since both pairs of opposite sides are equal, it forms a parallelogram.

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: Constructing Quadrilaterals

c) Rhombus
[Solution Description]
When two equilateral triangles are joined along a common side, all sides of the resulting quadrilateral will be equal (8 cm). Also, since each angle of an equilateral triangle is $60^\circ$, the angles at the vertices where the triangles are joined will add up to $120^\circ$. The other two angles remain $60^\circ$ each. The quadrilateral formed is a rhombus but not a square because its angles are not $90^\circ$.

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: Isosceles Trapezium

d) Both $\angle U = \angle V$ and $\angle W = \angle X$
[Solution Description]
An isosceles trapezium has equal non-parallel sides and equal base angles. Therefore, angles opposite to the equal sides are equal.

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 and Trapezium

b) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
In a kite $ABCD$, by definition, $AB = BC$ and $CD = DA$. The diagonal $BD$ divides the kite into two congruent triangles $\triangle ABD$ and $\triangle CBD$ by SSS congruence because $AB = CB$, $AD = CD$, and $BD$ is common. Since these triangles are congruent, $\angle ABD = \angle CBD$ and $\angle ADB = \angle CDB$, which means $BD$ bisects $\angle ABC$ and $\angle ADC$. However, the Reason states that $\triangle AOB$ and $\triangle COB$ are congruent by SSS, but it does not directly explain why $BD$ bisects the angles. Instead, $\triangle AOB$ and $\triangle COB$ are congruent by SAS (since $AB = CB$, $\angle ABO = \angle CBO$, and $BO$ is common), which shows that $AO = OC$ and that $BD$ is perpendicular to $AC$.
Hence, while both Assertion and Reason are true, the Reason does not correctly explain the Assertion since it incorrectly uses SSS instead of SAS.

Key Concept: Kite and Trapezium combined, Angle calculation

c) 120$^\circ$
[Solution Description]
The quadrilateral described is a combination of kite and trapezium properties. As it has two pairs of adjacent sides equal, it must be a kite. But it also has one pair of parallel sides, making it a trapezium. Hence, it is an isosceles trapezium where non-parallel sides are equal. Given one angle as $120^\circ$, the adjacent angle on the same side of the transversal will be $60^\circ$ (since they add up to $180^\circ$). The opposite angles in an isosceles trapezium are supplementary, so the largest angle will 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: Kite Properties, Congruent Triangles

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
Given that $\Delta AOB \cong \Delta COB$ in the kite ABCD, this implies that the corresponding angles $\angle ABO = \angle CBO$ and $\angle ADO = \angle CDO$ due to congruency. Therefore, the diagonal BD indeed bisects $\angle ABC$ and $\angle ADC$. The Reason correctly explains why the Assertion is true because congruent triangles ensure equal corresponding angles, which leads to the bisection of the angles by the diagonal BD.

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: Kite properties, angle bisector

b) $60^\circ$
[Solution Description]
First, since $BD$ bisects $\angle ABC$ and $\angle ABD = 30^\circ$, then $\angle ABC = 60^\circ$ because the angle bisector splits $\angle ABC$ into two equal angles.
Now, in a kite, one pair of opposite angles are equal. Therefore, $\angle ABC = \angle ADC = 60^\circ$.

Key Concept: Isosceles Trapezium Property

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
An isosceles trapezium has two parallel sides (UV$\parallel$XW) and two non-parallel sides (UX = VW). According to Property 2 of the syllabus, in an isosceles trapezium, angles opposite to equal sides are equal ($\angle$U = $\angle$V). This equality arises because the trapezium can be divided into congruent triangles (e.g., $\triangle UXY \cong \triangle VWZ$), ensuring the base angles ($\angle$U and $\angle$V) are equal. The Reason correctly states the defining property of an isosceles trapezium (equal non-parallel sides), which directly leads to the Assertion.

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 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: 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: 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 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.

Key Concept: Trapezium properties, Angle relationships

b) $23.75$
[Solution Description]
Recall that in an isosceles trapezium, the angles adjacent to each non-parallel side are equal.
So, $\angle P = \angle Q$ and $\angle S = \angle R$.
Also, since $PQ \parallel SR$, the sum of consecutive angles on the same side of the legs is $180^\circ$.
So, $\angle P + \angle S = 180^\circ$.
Given $\angle P = (3x + 10)^\circ$ and $\angle S = (5x - 20)^\circ$.
Therefore, $(3x + 10) + (5x - 20) = 180$.
Simplifying, $8x - 10 = 180$.
Then, $8x = 190$.
So, $x = \frac{190}{8} = 23.75$.

Key Concept: Properties of Kite - Diagonal Bisection

b) $40^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Given that diagonal BD bisects $\angle ABC$, this means it splits $\angle ABC$ into two equal angles. Since $\angle ABC = 80^\circ$, $\angle ABD$ will be half of $\angle ABC$.
Calculation:
$\angle ABD = \frac{\angle ABC}{2} = \frac{80^\circ}{2} = 40^\circ$
Thus, the measure of $\angle ABD$ is $40^\circ$.
