Board Exam 2023 Revision Test 10 Class X Maths Answers
CLASS: X : MATHEMATICS
M.M. 30 Marks T.T. 1 hr
Q1-Q9 of 1 mark, Q10 of 2 marks, Q11-Q13 of 3 marks & Q14-Q15 of 4 marks
1. If p and q are positive integers such that p = a3b2 and q = a2b, where ‘a’ and ‘b’ are prime numbers,
then find the LCM ( p, q)
Ans: LCM ( p, q) = a3b2
3. Given that LCM (77, 99) = 693, find the HCF (77, 99).
Ans: LCM × HCF = 77 × 99
⇒ 693 × HCF = 77 × 99 ⇒ HCF = 77 × 99 /693 = 11
7. Two dice are thrown at the same time and the product of numbers appearing on them is
noted. Find the probability that the product is a prime number.
Ans: Total number of possible outcomes = 36
Now for the product of the numbers on the dice is prime number can be have in these
possible ways = (1, 2), (2, 1), (1, 3), (3, 1), (5, 1), (1, 5)
So, number of possible ways = 6
∴ Required probability = 6/36 = 1/6
8. Write the relationship between mean, median and mode for a moderately skewed
distribution.
Ans: mode = 3 median – 2 mean
10. ABC is an isosceles triangle, in which AB = AC, circumscribed about a circle. Show that
BC is bisected at the point of contact.
Ans: Here, AB = AC (Given) ...(i)
12. Prove that the intercept of a tangent between two parallel tangents to a circle subtends a right
angle at the centre.
Ans: Join OQ, OB, OD and OR.
13. From a pack of 52 playing cards, jacks, queens, kings and aces of red colour are removed.
From the remaining a card is drawn at random. Find the probability that the card drawn is (i)
a black queen (ii) a red card (iii) a black jack
Ans: From the total playing 52 cards, red coloured jacks, queen, kings and aces are
removed(i.e., 2 jacks, 2 queens, 2 kings, 2 aces) ∴ Remaining cards = 52 – 8 = 44
(i) Favourable cases for a black queen are 2 (i.e., queen of club or spade)
∴ Probability of drawing a black queen = 2/44 = 1/22
(ii) Favourable cases for red cards are 26 – 8 = 18 (as 8 cards have been removed) (i.e.9
diamonds + 9 hearts)
∴ Probability of drawing a red card = 18/44 = 9/22
(iii) Favourable cases for a black jack are 2 (i.e. jacks of club or spade)
∴ Probability of drawing a black jack = 2/44 = 1/22
14. The following frequency distribution gives the monthly consumption of 68 consumers of a
locality. Find median, mean and mode of the data.
Monthly consumption 65- 85- 105- 125- 145- 165- 185-
of electricity (in units) 85 105 125 145 165 185 205
Number of consumers 4 5 13 20 14 8 4
Ans: For mean , median , mode
To calculate xi , cumulative frequency , identifying highest frequency
Formulae for mean , median, mode
