Given below are some sample questions from the set of CBSE Class 10 Mathematics: Important 1 Mark Questions:

Q.  If the HCF of 65 and 117 is expressible in the form of 65 m – 117, then find the value of m.

Sol.

We have, 65 = 13 × 5

And 117 = 13 × 9

Hence, HCF = 13

According to question 65m – 117 = 13

⇒  65m = 13 + 117 = 130

⇒  m = 130/65 = 2

Q. If the common difference of an A.P. is 3, then find a₂₀ – a₁₅.

Sol.

Let the first term of the AP be a.

a_n = a(n − 1)d

a₂₀ – a₁₅ = [a + (20 – 1)d] – [a + (15 – 1)d]

              = 19d – 14d

              = 5d

              = 5 × 3 = 15

Q. Find the value of a so that the point (3, a) lies on the line represented by 2x – 3y = 5.

Sol.

Since point (3, a) lies on line 2x – 3y = 5.
Then, 2 x 3 – 3 x a = 5
⟹       6 – 5 = 3a
⟹       a = 1/3

Q. For what value of k will k + 9, 2 k ‒ 1 and 2k + 7 are the consecutive terms of an A.P.?

Sol. 

If three terms x, y and z are in A.P. then, 2 y = x + z

Since k + 9, 2 k ‒ 1 and 2 k + 7 are in A.P.

∴          2(2k − 1) = (k + 9) + (2k + 7)
⟹       4k – 2 = 3k + 16

⟹       k = 18

Q. Find the median using an empirical relation, when it is given that mode and mean are 8 and 9 respectively.

Sol.

The relation between Mean, Median and Mode of the given data is:

            Mode = 3Median − 2Mean

⟹       8 = 3Median − 2 × 9

⟹       3Median = 8 + 18

⟹       Median = 26/3

⟹       Median = 8.67
