The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we will analyze each statement one by one and determine if they are true (T) or false (F). ### Step 1: Analyze Statement (i) **Statement (i):** If the area of a rectangle PQRS is `50 cm²` and PQ : QR is `2 : 1`, then PQ = 10 cm and QR = 5 cm. 1. Let PQ = 2x and QR = x (since PQ : QR = 2 : 1). 2. The area of the rectangle is given by the formula: Area = Length × Breadth. 3. Therefore, Area = PQ × QR = (2x) × (x) = 2x². 4. We know the area is 50 cm², so we set up the equation: 2x² = 50. 5. Dividing both sides by 2 gives us: x² = 25. 6. Taking the square root of both sides gives us: x = 5 cm. 7. Therefore, PQ = 2x = 2(5) = 10 cm and QR = x = 5 cm. **Conclusion:** The statement is **True (T)**. ### Step 2: Analyze Statement (ii) **Statement (ii):** Sonali has a total of 120 red and black pens. If 30% of them are black, then there are 40 red pens and 80 black pens. 1. Total pens = 120. 2. If 30% are black, then the number of black pens = 30% of 120 = (30/100) × 120 = 36. 3. Therefore, the number of red pens = Total pens - Black pens = 120 - 36 = 84. **Conclusion:** The statement is **False (F)** because it claims there are 40 red pens, but there are actually 84. ### Step 3: Analyze Statement (iii) **Statement (iii):** If `1/x : 1/y : 1/z = 4:5:6`, then `x : y : z = 6 : 5 : 4`. 1. From the ratio `1/x : 1/y : 1/z = 4:5:6`, we can express it as: - 1/x = 4k - 1/y = 5k - 1/z = 6k 2. Taking the reciprocal gives us: - x = 1/(4k) - y = 1/(5k) - z = 1/(6k) 3. Now, we need to find the ratio x : y : z: - x : y : z = (1/(4k)) : (1/(5k)) : (1/(6k)) - This simplifies to 6 : 5 : 4. **Conclusion:** The statement is **True (T)**. ### Step 4: Analyze Statement (iv) **Statement (iv):** If the speed of three cars is in the ratio `3:4:5`, then the ratio of time taken by these cars to travel the same distance is `20 : 15 : 12`. 1. Let the speeds of the cars be 3x, 4x, and 5x. 2. Time taken is given by the formula: Time = Distance / Speed. 3. Since the distance is the same for all cars, the ratio of time taken will be inversely proportional to their speeds. 4. Therefore, the ratio of time taken = 1/(3x) : 1/(4x) : 1/(5x) = 5 : 4 : 3. 5. This does not match the given ratio of 20 : 15 : 12. **Conclusion:** The statement is **False (F)**. ### Final Summary of Statements: - (i) True (T) - (ii) False (F) - (iii) True (T) - (iv) False (F) ### Correct Option: The correct option is **T, F, T, F**.
