Take three different colour sheets , place one over the other and draw a triangle on the top sheet. Cut the sheets to get triangles of different colour which are identical. Mark the vertices and the angles as shown. Place the interior angles angle1,angle2 and angle3 on a straight line, adjacent to each other, without leaving any gap. What can you say about the total measure of the three angles angle1,angle2 and angle3 ? Can you use the same figure to explain the ''Exterior angle property'' of a triangle ? If a side of a triangle is stretched, the exterior angle so formed is equal to the sum of the two remote interior angles.

Let T be the line passing through the points P(-2,\ 7) and Q(2,\ -5) . Let F_1 be the set of all pairs of circles (S_1,\ S_2) such that T is tangent to S_1 at P and tangent to S_2 at Q , and also such that S_1 and S_2 touch each other at a point, say, M . Let E_1 be the set representing the locus of M as the pair (S_1,\ S_2) varies in F_1 .

Each question has four choice: a, b, c and d, out of which only one is correct. Each question contains Statement 1 and Statement 2. Find the correct answer. Both the Statements are true but Statement 2 is the correct explanation of Statement 1. Both the Statement are True but Statement 2 is not the correct explanation of Statement 1. Statement 1 is True and Statement 2 is False.
