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: Properties of Squares and Rectangles

d) Assertion is false, but Reason is true.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that the diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other at $90^\circ$. However, this is false because in a rectangle, the diagonals bisect each other but not necessarily at $90^\circ$ (they do so only in squares). The reason states that a rectangle has all sides equal and all angles equal to $90^\circ$, which is also false since rectangles have opposite sides equal but not necessarily all sides equal (only squares satisfy this condition).
Therefore, both Assertion and Reason are false. But according to the given options, the closest correct choice is:
Assertion is false, but Reason is true.

Key Concept: Square properties

c) Square
[Solution Description]
A quadrilateral with all sides equal and one angle as 90° must have all angles as 90° (since opposite angles are equal and adjacent angles are supplementary). 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 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 Properties

b) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
The assertion states that all sides of a square are equal, which is true as per the syllabus. The reason states that a square is a special type of rectangle with all angles equal to $90^\circ$, which is also true. However, the reason does not explain why all sides of a square are equal; it only describes another property of squares.

Key Concept: Diagonals of a Square

c) The diagonals are not perpendicular to each other.
[Solution Description]
The properties of the diagonals of a square are: (1) They are equal in length, (2) They bisect each other at $90^{\circ}$, and (3) They bisect the angles of the square. The statement "The diagonals are not perpendicular to each other" is false because, in a square, the diagonals are always perpendicular.

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 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: 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 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: Diagonals of Rectangle

c) Are equal in length and bisect each other
[Solution Description]
The diagonals of a rectangle are equal in length and bisect each other at their midpoints. They do not necessarily intersect at right angles unless the rectangle is a square.

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: Diagonals in a rhombus

c) They are all $90^\circ$
[Solution Description]
A rhombus has all sides equal, and its diagonals bisect each other at $90^\circ$. Therefore, the angles between the diagonals of a rhombus are all $90^\circ$.

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: 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: Properties of square diagonals

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

Key Concept: Square Construction, Diagonals

c) $90°$
[Solution Description]
In a square, the diagonals are equal in length, bisect each other, and intersect at right angles (90°). Thus, to construct a square with a diagonal of 6 cm, the angle between the diagonals must be 90°.

Key Concept: Properties of Rectangle

b) 10 cm
[Solution Description]
In a rectangle, the diagonals are equal in length. Therefore, if one diagonal is 10 cm, the other diagonal must also be 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: 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: Properties of Rectangle

c) Opposite sides must be equal
[Solution Description]
In a quadrilateral with all angles as 90\degree, drawing a diagonal divides it into two congruent right-angled triangles. Using properties of congruent triangles, we deduce that opposite sides must be equal in length. Thus, such a quadrilateral must have opposite sides equal.

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: Square Construction, Diagonal Properties

c) 8 cm
[Solution Description]
In a square, both diagonals are equal in length. Therefore, if one diagonal is 8 cm, the other diagonal must also be 8 cm. This is because squares have all properties of rectangles plus the additional property that all sides are equal, leading to equal diagonals.

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: Diagonals of a Rectangle

b) 28 cm
[Solution Description]
A rectangle has equal diagonals that bisect each other. Given diagonal = 10 cm and one side = 6 cm. Using the Pythagorean theorem:
Let the sides be $x$ and $y$ ($x = 6$ cm).
$$ x^2 + y^2 = 10^2$$
$$ 36 + y^2 = 100$$
$$ y^2 = 64 \Rightarrow y = 8 \text{ cm}$$
Perimeter = $2(x + y) = 2(6 + 8) = 28$ cm.

Key Concept: Rectangle Properties

a) Diagonals bisect each other at $90^\circ$
[Solution Description]
A rectangle has the following properties: all angles are $90^\circ$, opposite sides are equal and parallel, and diagonals are equal and bisect each other. The option that does not match any of these properties is the correct answer.

Key Concept: Square Properties

a) $3\sqrt{2}\ \text{cm}$
[Solution Description]
For any square, diagonals are equal and bisect each other perpendicularly. Given AB = 6 cm (side length), we find diagonal AC first using Pythagorean theorem:
$AC = \sqrt{AB^2 + BC^2} = \sqrt{6^2 + 6^2} = \sqrt{72} = 6\sqrt{2}\ \text{cm}$.
Since diagonals bisect each other, AO = half of AC = $\frac{6\sqrt{2}}{2} = 3\sqrt{2}\ \text{cm}$.
Calculation steps:
1) Calculate diagonal AC using Pythagoras: $AC = \sqrt{6^2 + 6^2} = 6\sqrt{2}\ \text{cm}$.
2) Find AO as half of AC: $AO = 3\sqrt{2}\ \text{cm}$.

Key Concept: Special Rectangle and Square Properties

c) Opposite sides are equal
[Solution Description]
We need to identify a property that is common to both squares and rectangles.
Property 1: All angles are $90^\circ$. This is true for both squares and rectangles.
Property 2: Opposite sides are equal. This is also true for both.
Property 3: Diagonals bisect each other. This is true for both.
However, only in a square are all sides equal and diagonals perpendicular. So, the correct statement must be one that applies to both but not exclusively to either.
The most general correct statement common to both is that "Opposite sides are equal."

Key Concept: Square and Rectangle Properties

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 all sides equal and all angles equal to $90^{\circ}$, it must be a square. This is true because by definition, a square is a rectangle with all sides equal.
The reason states that every square is a rectangle (since it meets the rectangle's condition of having all angles equal to $90^{\circ}$ and opposite sides parallel and equal), but not every rectangle is a square (as rectangles can have unequal adjacent sides). This correctly explains why the assertion is true. Hence, both statements are true, and the reason correctly explains the assertion.

Key Concept: Properties of Rectangles and Squares

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

Key Concept: Angles in a Rectangle

c) $90^\circ$
[Solution Description]
By definition, all angles in a rectangle are right angles. A right angle measures $90^\circ$. Therefore, each angle in a rectangle is $90^\circ$.

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: Quadrilateral Angle Sum, Algebraic Equation

c) $76^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Let angle B be $x$. Then:
- Angle A = $2x$,
- Angle C = $x + 20^\circ$,
- Angle D = $x - 40^\circ$.
The sum of all angles is $360^\circ$, so:
$2x + x + (x + 20^\circ) + (x - 40^\circ) = 360^\circ$.
Combine like terms: $5x - 20^\circ = 360^\circ$.
Add $20^\circ$ to both sides: $5x = 380^\circ$.
Divide by 5: $x = 76^\circ$.
Therefore, angle B is $76^\circ$.

Key Concept: Quadrilateral Angle Sum, Triangle Angle Property

b) $90^\circ$
[Solution Description]
We know that the sum of all angles in a quadrilateral is $360^\circ$. Let angles R and S be $x$ each. So, we can write the equation:
$60^\circ + 120^\circ + x + x = 360^\circ$.
Simplifying this: $180^\circ + 2x = 360^\circ$.
Subtract $180^\circ$ from both sides: $2x = 180^\circ$.
Divide by 2: $x = 90^\circ$.
Therefore, angle R is $90^\circ$.

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: 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: 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

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]
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: Construction of quadrilaterals

c) The fourth angle must be a right angle
[Solution Description]
The sum of angles in any quadrilateral is $360^\circ$. If a quadrilateral has three right angles ($90^\circ$ each), their sum would be $270^\circ$. Therefore, the fourth angle must be:
$360^\circ - 270^\circ = 90^\circ$
Hence, if a quadrilateral has three right angles, the fourth angle must also be a right angle.

Key Concept: Properties of quadrilaterals

c) $\angle S$ is a right angle
[Solution Description]
Since the sum of angles in a quadrilateral is $360^\circ$, we can calculate $\angle S$ as follows:
$\angle P + \angle Q + \angle R + \angle S = 360^\circ$
Substituting the given angles:
$90^\circ + 90^\circ + 90^\circ + \angle S = 360^\circ$
$270^\circ + \angle S = 360^\circ$
$\angle S = 90^\circ$
Thus, $\angle S$ must also be $90^\circ$.

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: Quadrilateral Angle Sum Property

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

Key Concept: Angle Sum in Quadrilaterals

c) $115^\circ$
[Solution Description]
The sum of angles in a quadrilateral is $360^\circ$. Given $\angle P + \angle Q + \angle R + \angle S = 360^\circ$. Substituting the values:
$80^\circ + 95^\circ + 70^\circ + \angle S = 360^\circ$
$245^\circ + \angle S = 360^\circ$
$\angle S = 360^\circ - 245^\circ = 115^\circ$.

Key Concept: Diagonals of Rhombus

c) $10$ cm
[Solution Description]
The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at $90^\circ$. So, half-diagonals are $6$ cm and $8$ cm. Using the Pythagorean theorem:
Side length = $\sqrt{6^2 + 8^2} = \sqrt{36 + 64} = \sqrt{100} = 10$ cm.

Key Concept: Properties of a Parallelogram

a) Both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
In a parallelogram, by definition, both pairs of opposite sides are parallel. The assertion states that the opposite sides are equal and parallel, which is true as per the properties of a parallelogram. The reason correctly defines a parallelogram as a quadrilateral with both pairs of opposite sides parallel. Therefore, both Assertion and Reason are true, and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.

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: Congruent triangles in a parallelogram

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

Key Concept: Opposite sides and angles of a parallelogram

b) $110^\circ$
[Solution Description]
In a parallelogram, opposite angles are equal. Here, $\angle P$ and $\angle R$ are opposite angles, while $\angle Q$ and $\angle S$ are opposite angles. Therefore, $\angle S = \angle Q$. However, adjacent angles in a parallelogram add up to $180^\circ$, so $\angle Q = 180^\circ - \angle P = 180^\circ - 70^\circ = 110^\circ$. Thus, $\angle S = 110^\circ$.

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: 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: Properties, Angles

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

Key Concept: 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: Rectangle as a Parallelogram

b) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
A rectangle satisfies the definition of a parallelogram because it has two pairs of opposite sides that are parallel and equal in length (Property 3 of Rectangle). Additionally, the diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other (Property 4 of Rectangle), which is also true for any parallelogram. However, the Reason does not explain why a rectangle is a "special" type of parallelogram (i.e., due to its all angles being $90^\circ$). Thus, while both Assertion and Reason are true, the Reason does not fully explain the Assertion.

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: Relationship between squares, rectangles, and rhombuses

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

Key Concept: Venn Diagram, 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: 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 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: 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: 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: 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: 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: 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 of a Rhombus

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

Key Concept: Properties of a Rhombus

b) Both Assertion and Reason are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.
[Solution Description]
First, let's examine Assertion (A): "The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles." This is true because one of the properties of a rhombus states that its diagonals bisect each other at $90^\circ$.
Next, let's check Reason (R): "In a rhombus, the adjacent angles add up to $180^\circ$ and the opposite angles are equal." This is also true as it is another property of a rhombus mentioned in the syllabus.
However, while both Assertion and Reason are true, they describe different properties of a rhombus. The fact that adjacent angles sum to $180^\circ$ and opposite angles are equal does not directly explain why the diagonals bisect at right angles. These are separate properties.
Therefore, both statements are correct, but the reason does not explain the assertion.

Key Concept: Properties of Rhombus, Angles in Rhombus

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

Key Concept: Properties of Rhombus

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 rhombus bisect each other at $90^\circ$, which is Property 4 from the syllabus, so it is true. The reason states that a rhombus is a quadrilateral with all sides equal in length, which is the definition of a rhombus (Property 1), so it is also true. However, the property of diagonals bisecting at $90^\circ$ does not depend on all sides being equal but is a fundamental geometric property, so the Reason does not explain the Assertion. Thus, both are true, but Reason is NOT the correct explanation of Assertion.

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: 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: 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: Folding Paper to Form Quadrilaterals

d) Kite
[Solution Description]
Folding the sheet into half creates a straight line (crease). Folding it again into a quarter creates another perpendicular straight line. Making a triangular crease at the middle corner introduces diagonal folds. When these creases are opened, they form intersecting lines within the paper. Specifically:
- Two main creases from folding into quarters (vertical and horizontal).
- Diagonal creases from the triangular fold.
The resulting pattern forms a kite shape due to the intersection of the diagonal folds with the main creases, creating two pairs of adjacent sides of unequal length meeting at the central point.

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: 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: Folding Paper Activity

c) Kite

[Solution Description]

Folding the paper into quarters and making a triangular crease results in a kite shape due to the symmetry of the folds and the crease.

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: 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: 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: 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: Kite, Diagonals

b) They bisect each other perpendicularly
[Solution Description]
In a kite ABCD with AB = BC and CD = DA, diagonal BD bisects the other diagonal AC perpendicularly. This means BD divides AC into two equal parts (AO = OC) and forms right angles (90 degrees) with AC. Additionally, BD also bisects the angles ABC and ADC.

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: 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

d) $120^\circ$
[Solution Description]
One property of a trapezium states that the sum of angles on the same side of a leg is $180^\circ$. Here, $\angle P + \angle S = 180^\circ$. Given $\angle P = 60^\circ$, we calculate $\angle S = 180^\circ - 60^\circ = 120^\circ$.

Key Concept: Kite Properties

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

Key Concept: 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: Trapezium Angles

c) $110^\circ$
[Solution Description]
For a trapezium with parallel sides, the sum of adjacent angles is $180^\circ$. Given $\angle P = 70^\circ$, then $\angle S = 180^\circ - 70^\circ = 110^\circ$.

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, 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: Congruency in Kite

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

Key Concept: Relationship Between Kite and Rhombus

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

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 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: Basic property of trapezium angles

c) $120^\circ$
[Solution Description]
Since $PQ || SR$, by the property of trapezium, the sum of angles on the same side of the non-parallel side is $180^\circ$. Therefore, $\angle P + \angle S = 180^\circ$. Given $\angle P = 60^\circ$, we can find $\angle S$ as follows:
$\angle S = 180^\circ - 60^\circ = 120^\circ$

Key Concept: Kite diagonals, Congruency

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

Key Concept: Kite properties, Angle relationships

b) $100^\circ$
[Solution Description]
First, recall that in a kite, one diagonal bisects the angles at the vertices it connects. So, diagonal $BD$ bisects $\angle ABC$ and $\angle ADC$.
Given $\angle ABC = 120^\circ$, so $\angle ABO = \angle CBO = \frac{120^\circ}{2} = 60^\circ$.
Similarly, $\angle ADC = 80^\circ$, so $\angle ADO = \angle CDO = \frac{80^\circ}{2} = 40^\circ$.
Now, consider triangle $AOD$. The sum of angles in a triangle is $180^\circ$.
We know $\angle OAD$ can be found using the property that diagonals of a kite are perpendicular. Thus, $\angle AOD = 90^\circ$.
However, let's verify this by calculating $\angle OAD$:
In quadrilateral $ABCD$, the sum of all angles is $360^\circ$.
So, $\angle BAD + \angle ABC + \angle BCD + \angle CDA = 360^\circ$.
Since $AB = BC$ and $CD = DA$, we can find $\angle BAD = \angle BCD$ as follows:
Let $\angle BAD = x$, then $\angle BCD = x$ (because $AB = BC$ and $CD = DA$).
So, $x + 120^\circ + x + 80^\circ = 360^\circ$.
Which gives $2x + 200^\circ = 360^\circ$.
So, $2x = 160^\circ$ and $x = 80^\circ$.
Now, $\angle OAD = \frac{\angle BAD}{2} = \frac{80^\circ}{2} = 40^\circ$.
In triangle $AOD$, $\angle AOD + \angle OAD + \angle ODA = 180^\circ$.
Substituting known values: $\angle AOD + 40^\circ + 40^\circ = 180^\circ$.
So, $\angle AOD = 100^\circ$.

Key Concept: Angle Relationships in Trapezium

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

Key Concept: Properties of Trapezium - Angles

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

Key Concept: Diagonal Properties of a Kite

b) $4\,cm$
[Solution Description]
According to the properties of a kite, the diagonal $BD$ bisects the diagonal $AC$ at right angles. Hence, $AO = OC$. Given $AO = 4\,cm$, it follows that $OC = 4\,cm$.
