36 Temperature can be measured in both Fahrenheit and Celsius scale. Both are the standard units for
measuring temperature. There is a conversion formula by which Fahrenheit temperature can be
converted into Celsius temperature. This formula is in the form of a linear equation:

1
linear equation cuts the X-axis.

37 Aditya is a Class IX student residing in a village. One day, he went to a city Hospital along with
his grandfather for general checkup. From there he visited three places - School, Library and Police
Station. After returning to his village, he plotted a graph by taking Hospital as origin and marked
three places on the graph as per his direction of
movement and distance. The graph is shown below:

Answer the following questions:

a) What are the coordinates of Library? 1
b) In which quadrant the point (-1, 4) lies?
c) What are the coordinates of School and 1
Police Station? Find the distance between
school and police station.
OR
2
c) Find the distance between Hospital and
Library.

38 Triangles are used in bridges because they evenly

distribute weight without changing their proportions.
When force is applied on a shape like a rectangle it
would flatten out. Before triangles were used in
bridges, they were weak and could not be very big. To
solve that problem engineers would put a post in the
middle of a square and make it more sturdy. Isosceles
triangles were used to construct a bridge in which the
base (unequal side) of an isosceles triangle is 4 m and
its perimeter is 20 m.

a) What is the length of equal sides? 1

b) In a ∆ABC it is given that base = 12 m and height = 5 m. Find its area.
c) What is the area of the given isosceles triangle? 1
OR
c) Find the cost of covering the sheet for one isosceles triangle at the rate of Rs 200 per 2
metre.
