MOCK OF ASSERTION/REASON & CASE STUDY
ASSERTION/REASON
(a) If both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is
the correct explanation of Assertion.
(b) If both Assertion and Reason are correct, but Reason is
not the correct explanation of Assertion.
(c) If Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
(d) If Assertion is incorrect but Reason is correct.
1. Assertion: In the figure, if BC = 20 m, then height AB is 11.56 m.
Reason: tanθ = AB/BC = perpendicular/base, where θ is the angle ∠ACB
2. Assertion: If the length of shadow of a vertical pole is equal to its
height, then the angle of elevation of the sun is 45°.
Reason: According to Pythagoras theorem, h2 = l2 + b2, where h =
hypotenuse, l = length and b = base
3. Assertion: If the value of mode and mean is 60 and 66 respectively,
then the value of median is 64.
Reason: Median = (mode + 2 mean)/2
4. Assertion: If the number of runs scored by 11 players of a cricket
team of India are 5, 19, 42, 11, 50, 30, 21, 0, 52,
36, 27 then median is 30.
Reason: Median = (n+1)/2, if n is odd.
5. Assertion: If the height of a cone is 24 cm and diameter of the base is
14 cm, then the slant height of the cone is 15 cm.
Reason: If r be the radius and h the slant height of the cone, then slant
height = √(h2+r2)
6. If in a cyclic quadrilateral, one angle is 40°, then the opposite angle is
140°
Reason: Sum of opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral is equal to 360°
7. The sum of the series with the nth term, tn = (9 – 5n) is (465), when no.
of terms n = 15.
Reason : Given series is in A.P. and sum of n terms of an A.P. is
8. Assertion (A): If ∆ABC and ∆PQR are congruent triangles, then they
are also similar triangles.
Reason (R): All congruent triangles are similar but the similar triangles
need not be congruent.
9. Assertion (A): In the ∆ABC, AB = 24 cm, BC = 10 cm and AC = 26 cm,
then ∆ABC is a right angle triangle.
Reason (R): If in two triangles, their corresponding angles are equal, then
the triangles are similar.
10. Assertion: The value of 2tan2450+cos2300-sin2600 is 2.
Reason: value of tan450=1, cos300=√3/2 and sin600=√3/2.
11. Assertion: If cosA+cos2A=1 then sin2A+sin4A=1.
Reason: sin2A+cos2A=1, for any value of A.
12. Assertion: The graphical representation of the equations x+2y=3 and
2x+4y+7=0 gives a pair of coincident lines.
Reason: The graph of linear equations a1x+b1y+c1=0 and a2x+b2y+c2=0
gives a pair of intersecting lines if a1/a2 ≠ b1/b2

CASE STUDY 4
Adventure camps are the perfect place for the children to practice decision making
for themselves without parents and teachers guiding their every move. Some
students of a school reached for adventure at Sakleshpur. At the camp, the waiters
served some students with a welcome drink in a cylindrical glass and some
students in a hemispherical cup whose dimensions are shown below. After that
they went for a jungle trek. The jungle trek was enjoyable but tiring. As dusk fell, it
was time to take shelter. Each group of four students was given a canvas of area
551m2 . Each group had to make a conical tent to accommodate all the four
students. Assuming that all the stitching and wasting incurred while cutting, would
amount to 1m2 , the students put the tents. The radius of the tent is 7m.
