(x) 
Ans. (i) L.H.S.
= 
= 
= 
= 
= 

= 
= 
=
= R.H.S.
(ii) L.H.S. 
= 
= 
= 

=
= 
=
=
= R.H.S
(iii) L.H.S. 
= 
= 
= 
= 
= 
= 

= 

=
= 
= 
(iv) L.H.S. 
=
= 
= 
= 
=
= R.H.S.
(v) L.H.S. 
Dividing all terms by 
=
= 
= 
= 
= 
=
= R.H.S.
(vi) L.H.S. 
= 
= 

= 

=
= 
=
= R.H.S.
(vii) L.H.S. 
= 
= 

= 
=
= 
=
= R.H.S
(viii) L.H.S. 
= 
= 
= 
= 
= 
= 

= 
= R.H.S.
(ix) L.H.S. 
= 
= 
=
= 
= 

Dividing all the terms by
,
= 
= 
=
= R.H.S.
(x) L.H.S.
= 

=
=
= R.H.S.
Now, Middle side =
= 
= 
=
= 
=
= R.H.S.
