1. If z = (b + 5i)(10 + 4i) is a purely imaginary number, find the value of the real number b.
(3 marks)
Solution:
(b + 5i)(10 + 4i) = 10b + 50i + 4bi + 20i
2

= 10b + (50 + 4b)i + 20(1)
= (10b 20) + (50 + 4b)i
Since z is a purely imaginary number, the real part of z = 0 and the imaginary part of z = 0.
10b 20 = 0 and 50 + 4b = 0
10b = 20 and 4b = 50
b = 2 and b =

b = 2

6. In the figure, ABC is a right-angled triangle, where AB BC. AB = 20 cm and BC = 8 cm. D, E and F are
points on AB, BC and AC respectively such that BDFE is a rectangle. It is given that the area of BDFE is 30
cm

.
(a) Prove that ABC ~ ADF.
(b) (i) Find the possible lengths of BD and DF.
(ii) Can the perimeter of BDFE be greater than 30 cm? Explain your answer.
(10 marks)
Solution:
(a) In ABC and ADF,
ABC = ADF = 90
BAC = DAF
ABC ~ ADF

(ii) When BD = 5 cm and DF = 6 cm,
perimeter of BDFE = [2(5 + 6)] cm = 22 cm
When BD = 15 cm and DF = 2 cm,
perimeter of BDFE = [2(15 + 2)] cm = 34 cm
34 cm > 30 cm
The perimeter of BDFE can be greater than 30 cm.
