- 1) Ans 5/4
can be done by half area approach.
As for the 1st square made by joining the mid point of square with 5 cm length its area is halfed (25/2). and for the 2nd its again halfed(25/4).
for 9th square area = 25*(1/2)^(n-1)=25*(1/2)^(8)
to get the perimeter = 4*sqrt(area) - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(15) No(10)

used some fuzzy method :p
make a grp of numbers (1),(2,1),(2,2,1),(2,2,2,1),(2,2,2,2,1)...
>some of the numbers in the grps ll make the series 1,3,5,7... which is d series of odd numbers.
>no of terms in every grp ll make the series 1,2,3,4,
some of this series ll be given as n(n+1)/2 gives n=49 n for the 50th grp it will give 9 more terms all ll be 2's sum 9*2=18-----(1)
using n=49 in part 1
and it ll give u sum of 49 grps which is actually sum of 1225 terms.
it ll be 49*49 = 2401 ------(2)
total sum=some of 1225 terms + some of next 9 terms
= 2401+18
= 2419
i have made a little mistake is previous 1 so exact solution is 2419

answer to ques. no 5.
perimeter =2(a+b+c)=2(8+6+12)=52cm
explanation:
draw a triangle ABC
given AP=8
BP=6
CP=12
draw a perpendicular to BC from P let it is PM
by pythagorus
BP^2 = PM^2 + BM^2 .....(1)
CP^2 = PM^2 + CM^2......(2)
FROM 1 AND 2....
CP^2 - BP^2 =CM^2 - BM^2
12^2 - 6^2 = (CM+BM)(CM-BM)
CM+BM = BC = 12+6 = 18
SIMILARLY
AB = 8+6= 14
AC = 12+8= 20
PERIMETER= 18+14+20 = 52cm ans. - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(7) No(2)
- first square made by joining the mid point of square with 5 cm length will have side as 5/root(2)
for second square 5/(root 2)^2
for 9th square 5/(root 2)^9 = 5/8*(root 2)
so perimeter will be 5*4/8*(root 2) = 5/2(root 2) - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(6) No(4)
- QUESTION 3:
when n=40 then z(n)=1640+41=1681
which is 41 square.
Ans:6 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(5) No(3)
- (3) d) z(n) is always prime
put s(n)=n*(n+1)/2
and solve for values for 0,1,2 even -1,-2,-3

- Can anyone tell me about the approach used in 5th question ???
- 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- side of square=5
2nd square is 5/underroot2
nth term of gp is ar power n-1
a=5;r=1/under root2
perimeter=4*5(1/under root 2)
