Algebra Solved Question - 4

Is the pair of linear equations 3x − 5y + 7 = 0 and 6x − 10y + 13 = 0 inconsistent? Justify your answer.

Equation 1: 3x − 5y + 7 = 0
Equation 2: 6x − 10y + 13 = 0

Compare ratios:

a₁/a₂ = 3/6 = 1/2
b₁/b₂ = (−5)/(−10) = 1/2
c₁/c₂ = 7/13

Since:
a₁/a₂ = b₁/b₂ ≠ c₁/c₂

Therefore, lines are parallel and do not intersect.

Conclusion: The system is inconsistent (no solution).

Algebra Solved Question - 3

If the pair of linear equations :

(3k + 1)x + 3y - 2 = 0

and

(k² + 1)x + (k - 2)y - 5 = 0 has no solutions, then find the value of k.

If the pair of linear equations:
(3k + 1)x + 3y − 2 = 0
(k² + 1)x + (k − 2)y − 5 = 0
has no solutions, find the value of k.

Solution:
For no solution:
a₁/a₂ = b₁/b₂ ≠ c₁/c₂

So,
(3k + 1)/(k² + 1) = 3/(k − 2)

Cross multiply:
(3k + 1)(k − 2) = 3(k² + 1)

⇒ 3k² − 6k + k − 2 = 3k² + 3
⇒ 3k² − 5k − 2 = 3k² + 3

Cancel 3k²:
−5k − 2 = 3

⇒ −5k = 5
⇒ k = −1

Check condition:
c₁/c₂ = −2/−5 = 2/5

a₁/a₂ = −2/2 = −1

So, a₁/a₂ ≠ c₁/c₂ 

Final Answer: k = −1

Algebra Solved Question - 2

In an arithmetic progression, the first term is 1, the last term is 20, and the sum of all the terms is 399; then find the number of terms in the progression.

First term (a) = 1
Last term (l) = 20
Sum (Sₙ) = 399

Formula:
Sₙ = n/2 (a + l)

⇒ 399 = n/2 (1 + 20)
⇒ 399 = n/2 × 21
⇒ 399 = 21n/2

⇒ 798 = 21n
⇒ n = 798 / 21 = 38

Final Answer: Number of terms = 38

Algebra Solved Question - 1

Write a Quadratic equation whose roots are the values of sin 30° and cos 60°.

sin 30° = 1/2
cos 60° = 1/2

So, roots are: α = 1/2, β = 1/2

Sum of roots = α + β = 1/2 + 1/2 = 1
Product of roots = αβ = (1/2)(1/2) = 1/4

Quadratic equation:
x² − (sum)x + product = 0

⇒ x² − x + 1/4 = 0

Multiplying by 4 to remove fraction:
4x² − 4x + 1 = 0

Final Answer: 4x² − 4x + 1 = 0

Presentation Hacks for Extra Marks

• Even if your final answer is wrong, you can get 80-90% of the marks if your steps are logical. Write the formula used in a box on the right side of the step.
• For every long answer, start with:
  • Given: (List the values provided in the question)
  • To Find: (What is the objective?)
  • Formula: (State it clearly)
• Use a sharp pencil for Geometry diagrams.
• Label your axes in Graphs and always mention the scale.
• Underline the final answer with a double line and include the Units.

Topper's Attempt Strategy

After talking to multiple toppers of the exam, we found a very similar and interesting pattern in how they attempted the paper. 

1. Use the initial reading time to categorise questions:
   • Type A (Instant): Questions you know by heart.
   • Type B (Needs Thought): Questions where you know the method but need careful calculation.
   • Type C (Tricky): Higher-order thinking questions.
2. Start with Section III (6-mark questions) while your mind is fresh and your energy is high. These carry the most weight. Then move to Section II, Section I, and finally the Objective Bits (Part B).
3. Aim to finish the paper 20 minutes before the bell. Use this time only to recalculate values and check if you copied the numbers correctly from the question paper.

Expert Preparation Tips for 2026

To move from a standard score to a 100/100, you can follow these prep tips.

• Create a one-page cheat sheet for every chapter. For Mensuration, group formulas by shape (Cylinder, Cone, Sphere) to avoid confusion between Total Surface Area (TSA) and Lateral Surface Area (LSA).
• Solve the last 5 years of TS SSC papers. You’ll notice that Statistics (Mean, Median, Mode) and Probability follow very predictable patterns.

Geometry Solved Question - 1

AOB is the diameter of a circle with centre ‘O’ and AC is a tangent to the circle at A. If ∠BOC = 130°, then find ∠ACO.

Since AC is a tangent at A, radius OA ⟂ AC
⇒ ∠OAC = 90°

In triangle AOC:
OA = OC (radii of the circle)
So, triangle AOC is isosceles

Given: ∠BOC = 130°
Since AOB is a straight line,
∠AOC = 180° − 130° = 50°

In triangle AOC:
∠OAC + ∠ACO + ∠AOC = 180°

⇒ 90° + ∠ACO + 50° = 180°
⇒ ∠ACO = 180° − 140° = 40°

Final Answer: ∠ACO = 40°
