Class 10 Mathematics

Final Exam Model – Full Solved Answers

These answers are written exactly in the manner a student should write in the Class 10 Board Examination to score full marks.


Section A – MCQs

1. HCF of 306 and 657 = 9

2. Zeroes are 2 and 3

3. sin 30° = 1/2

4. Distance = 5 units

5. Tangent intersects circle at one point

6. Depends on radius and height

7. Mean = 5.5

8. Probability = 1/2

9. Graph is a straight line

10. tan 45° = 1

Section B – Very Short Answers

11. HCF of 135 and 225 using Euclid’s Division Algorithm

225 = 135 × 1 + 90
135 = 90 × 1 + 45
90 = 45 × 2 + 0

∴ HCF = 45


12. Zeroes of x² − 7x + 10

(x − 5)(x − 2) = 0
Zeroes are 5 and 2


13. sin 60° + cos 30°

= √3/2 + √3/2 = √3


14. Distance between (1,2) and (4,6)

= √[(4−1)² + (6−2)²]
= √(9 + 16) = 5


15. Midpoint of (2,2) and (6,6)

= ((2+6)/2 , (2+6)/2) = (4,4)


16. Radius when circumference = 44 cm

2πr = 44 ⇒ r = 7 cm


17. tan 45° − sin 30°

= 1 − 1/2 = 1/2


18. Mean of first five natural numbers

Mean = (1+2+3+4+5)/5 = 3


19. Curved surface area of cone

πrl


20. Probability of even number on a die

= 3/6 = 1/2

Section C – Short Answers

21. Prove √5 is irrational

Assume √5 = a/b where a and b are co-prime.
5 = a²/b² ⇒ a² = 5b²

a divisible by 5 ⇒ let a = 5k
b also divisible by 5

Contradiction.
∴ √5 is irrational.


22. Quadratic equation with zeroes 4 and −1

Sum = 3, Product = −4
Equation: x² − 3x − 4 = 0


23. Solve: 2x + y = 7, x − y = 1

Adding equations: 3x = 8 ⇒ x = 8/3
y = 7 − 2x = 5/3

Section D – Long Answers

31. HCF and LCM of 26 and 91

26 = 2 × 13
91 = 7 × 13

HCF = 13
LCM = 182

LCM × HCF = 182 × 13 = 2366
26 × 91 = 2366

∴ Verified


32. Solve x² − 5x − 6 = 0

(x − 6)(x + 1) = 0
x = 6 or −1


33. Area of sector (r = 14 cm, θ = 90°)

Area = (θ/360) × πr²
= (90/360) × 22/7 × 14 × 14 = 154 cm²


34. Mean by step deviation method

Mean = 30


35. Probability of prime number on a die

Prime numbers: 2,3,5
Probability = 3/6 = 1/2
