Class 9–10 Maths quiz — 26 October 2026

Questions and answers from this day. Play today's quiz to build your streak.

Question 1 · Coordinate geometry

Find the distance between the points (4, 2) and (9, 14).

  1. A. 13 ✓
  2. B. 26
  3. C. 14
  4. D. 17

Answer: 13. Distance = √(5² + 12²) = √169 = 13.

Question 2 · Algebraic identities

If a + b = 6 and ab = 8, what is a² + b²?

  1. A. 16
  2. B. 28
  3. C. 52
  4. D. 20 ✓

Answer: 20. (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b², so a² + b² = 6² − 2 × 8 = 36 − 16 = 20.

Question 3 · Quadratic equations

What is the larger root of x² − 6x + 5 = 0?

  1. A. 1
  2. B. 5 ✓
  3. C. 6
  4. D. 4

Answer: 5. x² − 6x + 5 = (x − 5)(x − 1) = 0, so the roots are 5 and 1. The larger is 5.

Question 4 · Mensuration

A cylinder has a radius of 7 cm and a height of 12 cm. What is its volume? (Use π = 22/7)

  1. A. 1855 cm³
  2. B. 1848 cm³ ✓
  3. C. 2002 cm³
  4. D. 3696 cm³

Answer: 1848 cm³. Volume = π r² h = 22/7 × 7 × 7 × 12 = 1848 cm³.

Question 5 · AP sums

Find the sum of the first 18 terms of the AP that starts at 4 with common difference 1.

  1. A. 450
  2. B. 243
  3. C. 225 ✓
  4. D. 224

Answer: 225. Sum = n/2 × (2a + (n − 1)d) = 18/2 × (8 + 17) = 225.
