            Using the above theorem, prove that:

            If quadrilateral ABCD is circumscribing a circle, then AB + CD = AD + BC

Question 28

28.       An aeroplane when flying at a height of 3125 m from the ground passes vertically below another plane at an instant when the angles of elevation of the two planes from the same point on the ground are 30° and 60° respectively. Find the distance between the two planes at that instant.

Question 29

29.       A juice seller serves his customers using a glass as shown in figure. The inner diameter of the cylindrical glass is 5 cm, but the bottom of the glass has a hemispherical portion raised which reduces the capacity of the glass.
