DIRECTOR’S MESSAGE……

It is with profound delight and utmost pride that we present the Competency Based
Assessment question bank for CLASS 7 which was prepared by TGT(Mathematics) of
the feeder regions during the 03 – day workshop on “Competency Based Assessment
in Mathematics: Design of test items” It’s my firm belief that access to quality
education should know no boundaries, transcending social and economic constraints.
Our collective vision is to empower all students and teachers with the tools for success
and intellectual growth.
With their steadfast dedication, the TGT(Mathematics) from the feeder Regions
namely Bangalore, Chennai, Ernakulam and Hyderabad have invested their knowledge
and expertise in preparation of the CBA test items.
It is with pleasure that I place on record my commendation for the commitment and
dedication of the team of TGT(Mathematics) from the four Regions, Shri. Siby
Sebastian, Principal KV INS Dronacharya, Kochi, Ernakulam Region &

Q25. a) Let the total property of farmer be 1
Also, property given to farmer’s daughter = ½
Property given to eldest son = ¼
Property given to second son = 1/8
Therefore, the property given to farmer’s youngest son =
Total property of farmer – total property given to his three children
= 1 – (½ + ¼ +1/8)
= 1 – 7/8 = 1/8
b) Since, total property of farmer = 32 acres

13
So, property gained by youngest son = 1/8 × 32 = 4 acres
c) Property gained by eldest son = ¼ × 32 = 8 acres
d) Property gained by his daughter = ½ × 32 = 16 acres

= 90°

5 x = 90° × 3 = 270°
x = 270° / 5 = 54°
Hence x = 54 °.
14. Let the two complement angles be 2x and 7x .
∴ 2x +7x = 90°
9x = 90°
x = 10°
so the angles are 2×10° = 20° and 7×10° = 70°.

40
15. Let the two supplementary angles be 4x and 6x .
∴ 4x +6x = 180°
10x = 180°
x = 18°
so the angles are 4×18° = 72° and 6×18° = 108°.
16. The difference in the measure of two complementary angles is 26° i.e.,
Let the angle be x and then the complement of x will be (90 – x) °.
X– (90-x)° = 26 °
2x – 90° = 26°
2x = 26° + 90°
2x = 116°
x= 116° /2 = 58°
so x = 58° and complement of x is 90° – 58° = 32°

17. Here Given two supplementary angles are (2x+9)° and (5x-4) °

∠c=180°-30°
∠c=150°
Since ∠XYQ =∠PQS (corresponding angles)
And ∠XYQ =∠b ( vertically opposite angles )
∴ ∠b =∠c or ∠b =150°
Now ∠IXS=∠XYQ (corresponding angles)
∠IXS=150°

i) When two lines intersect each other ,then the opposite angles ,formed due to
+intersection are called vertically opposite angles.A pair of vertically opposite angles are
always equal to each other.
Therefore ,the vertically opposite angles are
∠1,∠4;∠2,∠3;∠5,∠7;∠6,∠8
ii)We know that alternate exterior angles are the pair of angles on the other side
of the two parallel lines but on the opposite side of the transversal
therefore , ;∠2 and∠8 are alternate exterior angles
28. i) Since ,GH is parallel to IJ and GI is the transversal
∴∠r=∠t (corresponding angles)
Hence , ∠r and ∠t are corresponding angles
ii) Given , GH||IJ and GI is the transversal and ∠s=120°

44
 we know that if a transversal intersects two parallel lines, then the interior
angles on same side of the transversal is supplementary
∴ ∠s+∠t=180°
120°+∠t=80°
∠t=180°-120° therefore ∠t=60°
iii) Given AD, is a straight lines ,PS and QR are perpendicular to AD
when two straight lines intersect each other at 90°
or are perpendicular to each other at the intersection ,they form the right angle.
Thus ,lines PS is perpendicular to AD , ∠x is a straight angle i.e 90°
29. i) Given, AB||ML, ∠LOB=142°
∠A=32°

∠MOA and ∠A are alternate angles.

So , ∠MOA=32°
Also,( ∠MOA + x) and ∠142° form a linear pair.
So, ∠MOA+x+142°=180°
32°+x+142°=180°
x=180-142°-32°
x=180°-172°=6°
iii) ∠MOB=∠MOA+x=∠A+x (∠MOA=∠A alternate interior angles)
Therefore ∠MOB=32°+6°=38°
iii)Anil’s answer in the test was not correct. The value of x and 6°

ii) Given c=75° and a=5 𝑐
2
Now a= 5 ∗ 75° = 30°

∴ ∠c=∠a+∠b (alternate interior angles )

75°=30°+∠b
∠b =45°
iii) ∠a+∠b=∠TPR+∠RPQ=∠TPQ
By alternate interior angle property it can be say that
∠UTP=∠TPQ

x + 110°=180°
x = 180°-110°=70°
2. We’ll add the sides in pairs and check if the sum is greater than the remaining side. If all
the 3 pairs satisfy this condition then the triangle is possible.
3. Let the angle be x
x + x+40°=180° (Angle sum property of triangle)
2x + 40°=180°
2x = 180°-40°=140°

52
 x=140/2=70°
4. Let each interior opposite angle be x, then by exterior angle sum property of triangle, we
get, x + x = 1200
⇒ 2x = 1200 ⇒ x = 600
Since the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is always 180°, we can find the third
angle: Third angle = 1800 – (600 + 600) = 600
All three angles of the triangle are 60°, meaning the triangle is equilateral (a triangle with
all angles and sides equal).
Thus, the triangle is an equilateral triangle.

X = 180°-120°=60°, Since all the angles are Acute hence its a Acute angle triangle
2. Let the angle be x
X + X+40°=180° (Angle sum property of triangle)
2X + 40°=180°
2X = 180°-40°=140°
X=140/2=70°
Hence the remaining angles are 70° each.
3. Using Pythagoras theorem
5²+12²= hypotenuse²
Hypotenuse ²=144+25=169
hypotenuse=13cm
Since all the sides are of unequal lengths, it's a Scalene Triangle
4. Interior Angle + Exterior Angle= 180-° (Linear Pair)
Int Angle +120°=180°
Int Angle=180-120=60°
Since all the angles of this triangle are equal, it's an Equilateral Triangle.
5. Perimeter of equilateral triangle = 27 cm

21. Given in the question: –
Principal (P) = ₹ 5000, Rate (R) = 6% p.a. and Time (T) = 2years.

If the interest is calculated uniformly on an original principal throughout the loan period, then it is
called Simple interest (SI).

SI = (P × R × T)/100

= (5000 × 6 × 2 )/ 100

= (50 × 6 × 2)/ 1 = ₹ 600

Amount = (principal + SI)

= (5000 + 600) = ₹ 5600

24. Let the number of apple trees be x

Number of trees in the orchard = 240

Percent of apple trees = 16 2/3 %

According to the given condition, 16 (2/3) % of 240 = x

= 16.66 % of 240 = x

x = (16.66/100) × 240

x = 40 trees

Number of other types of trees = Total number of trees – number of apple trees

62
Also given that marks scored by Gita = (486/600)

Percentage of marks scored by Gita = (486/600) × 100

= 0.81 × 100 = 81

Gita’s performance (81%) is better than Ram’s (79%).

26. Given cost price of 50 dozens bananas that Harish purchased, CP = Rs. 135

Bananas left after removing 5 dozen rotten bananas = 45 dozens

Effective CP of one dozen bananas = Rs. 135/45 = Rs. 3

Calculating the price at which Harish should sell each dozen bananas to make a profit of 20% (or
1/5), we get

Profit % = (Gain/CP) x100

To get a gain of 20% we give profit % = 20

And substitute 20 = (gain/135) x100

Gain = 270/10 = 27

We know; SP = CP + Gain

SP = 27 + 135 SP = 162

Now that SP is for 45 Dozens of bananas

Calculating for one dozen

= 162/4 = Rs. 3.6

Harish should sell the bananas at Rs. 3.60 a dozen in order to make a profit of 20%.

Area of flower bed = πr2 = 3.14 × 332 = 3.14 × 1089 = 3419.46 m now, we have to find the area
of the flower bed and path together.
So, the radius of the flower bed and path together = 33 + 4 = 37 m
Area of the flower bed and path together = πr2 = 3.14 × 372 = 3.14 × 1369
= 4298.66 m
Finally, Area of the path = Area of the flower bed and path together – Area of the flower bed
= 4298.66 – 3419.46 = 879.20 m2

1. Ans. AREA = b x h = 20 cm²
ii. Ans. Perimeter = 12+8 =20 cm
iii. Ans. BF = 30/6 =5CM
AREA OF PARALLELOGRAM = b x h = 10 x 5 = 50 cm²

27) Rope = 2 x 22/7 x 21 = 132 m

Cost= 132 x 4 = Rs 528
Diameter including garden and foot path = 21 + 4 = 25m
Area of big circle = 22/7 x 25/2 x 25/2 = 484.4m²
Area of garden = 22/7 x 21/2 x 21/2= 346.185 m²
Area of the foot path = 138.215m
Cost = 138.18 x 20 = Rs 2764.45
28.) Length of each side = 132/3 =44cm
Area of square = 132/4 x 132/4 =1089cm²
Radius of circle = (132 x 7)/ (2 x 22) =21 cm
Area of circle = 22/7 x 21 x 21 = 1386 cm²

29) Ans: From the question, it is given that AB = AC = 7.5 cm, BC = 9 cm, AD = 6cm
Then, Area of ΔABC = ½ × Base × Height
= ½ × BC × AD = ½ × 9 × 6 = 1 × 9 × 3 = 27 cm2
Now, Area of ΔABC = ½ × Base × Height
⇒ 27 = ½ × AB × CE
⇒ 27 = ½ × 7.5 × CE
⇒ (27 × 2)/7.5 = CE
⇒ CE = 54/7.5 ⇒ CE = 7.2 cm

30). Radius = side /2 =10/2 = 5m

Circumference = 31.4m
Ratio = (100 x 7) / (22 x 25) = 700 / 550 =70/55 = 14/11
