Correct Answer: No Substitution

Solution : The fourth option is the correct answer.

The original sentence is grammatically correct and conveys the intended meaning effectively that the speaker is putting in effort to secure a satisfactory or reasonable financial situation.

Correct Answer: men

Solution : The second option is the correct choice.

The context suggests that women and their supporters have fought for the same rights as a specific group. Men is the most suitable option, as it reflects the contrast between women's struggle for rights and the reference to men's kindness in the previous sentence.

The meanings of other options are as follows:

• Everyone means all individuals collectively, without a specific focus on a particular group or gender.
• Universal is pertaining to or affecting all people or things, irrespective of gender or specific characteristics.
• A politician is a person engaged in politics, typically involved in the governance and decision-making processes.

Correct Answer: Excessive and irrational fear

Solution : Anxiety disorders are characterized by excessive and irrational fear or worry that is out of proportion to the actual threat or situation. This fear can interfere with daily functioning and cause significant distress.

Correct Answer: North

Solution : Firstly, we will draw the diagram as per the given instructions –

As the sun rises in the East in the morning, the shadow will be formed in the opposite direction of the sun.
Here, Sanju's shadow is towards his right, so the left side of the Sanju is facing the sun.

So, Sanju is coming from the north direction to go to her college. Hence, the third option is correct.

Correct Answer: Planning is futuristic

Solution : Planning always means looking ahead or planning is a futuristic function. Planning is never done for the past. All the manager try to make prediction and assumption for future.
In the above case, Sales forecasting is the basis on which a business firm prepares its annual plan for production and sales. Planning is futuristic or forward looking feature is highlighted.
Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.

Correct Answer: $\frac{59}{48}$

Solution : Given: $\frac{4 \tan ^2 30^{\circ}+\sin ^2 30^{\circ} \cos ^2 45^{\circ}+\sec ^2 48^{\circ}-\cot ^2 42^{\circ}}{\cos 37^{\circ} \sin 53^{\circ}+\sin 37^{\circ} \cos 53^{\circ}+\tan 18^{\circ} \tan 72^{\circ}}$
We know that $\tan 30^{\circ} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$
$\sin 30^{\circ} = \frac{1}{2}$
$\cos 45^{\circ} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$
$\cos 37^{\circ} = \cos (90^{\circ} - 53^{\circ}) = \sin 53^{\circ}$
$\sin 37^{\circ} = \sin (90^{\circ} - 53^{\circ}) = \cos 53^{\circ}$
$\tan 18^{\circ} \tan 72^{\circ} = 1$ (since $18^{\circ}$ and $72^{\circ}$ are complementary angles)
Putting the values, we get:
$= \frac{4 (\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}})^2 + (\frac{1}{2})^2 (\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}})^2 + \sec ^2 48^{\circ} - \tan ^2 48^{\circ}}{\sin 53^{\circ} \sin 53^{\circ} + \cos 53^{\circ} \cos 53^{\circ} + 1}$
$= \frac{4 (\frac{1}{3}) + \frac{1}{8} +1}{(\sin ^2 53^{\circ} + \cos ^2 53^{\circ}) + 1}$
Since $\sin ^2 \theta + \cos ^2 \theta = 1$ for any angle $\theta$, the denominator becomes $1 + 1 = 2$.
So, the expression simplifies to:
$=\frac{4 (\frac{1}{3}) + \frac{1}{8} + 1}{2}$
$=\frac{ (\frac{4}{3}) + \frac{1}{8} + 1}{2}$
$=\frac{ (\frac{32+3+24}{24}) }{2}$
$=(\frac{59}{48})$
Hence, the correct answer is $(\frac{59}{48})$.

Correct Answer: 93.75 km/hr

Solution : Given: A bus travels first 100 km at a speed of 100 km/hr. It covers the next 150 km at a speed of 90 km/hr.
Time to cover the first 100 km at a speed of 100 km/hr = $\frac{100}{100}$ = 1 hour
Time to cover the next 150 km at a speed of 90 km/hr = $\frac{150}{90}$ = $\frac{5}{3}$ hours
Now, the total distance = 100 + 150 = 250 km
and the total time taken = 1 + $\frac{5}{3}$ = $\frac{8}{3}$ hours
So, the average speed = $\frac{\text{Total distance}}{\text{Total time}}=\frac{250}{\frac{8}{3}}=250×\frac{3}{8}= 93.75$ km/hr
Hence, the correct answer is 93.75 km/hr.

Correct Answer: Statement 2 is true, but statement 1 is false.

Solution : The correct answer is (c) Statement 2 is true, but statement 1 is false.

Statement 1 is false because performance appraisal is indeed related to staffing. Performance appraisal is an integral part of the staffing process, as it involves evaluating and assessing the job performance of employees.

Statement 2 is true. Performance appraisal is a systematic process that helps in assessing and evaluating employees' job performance, providing feedback on their strengths and areas for improvement.

Correct Answer: 6

Solution : The bottom face in the last cube is the face opposite to 4.
Taking dice positions 2 and 3 with 4 as the common face,

Moving clockwise from the common face with 4,

Pairs of opposite faces –

So, the bottom face in the last cube is the face containing 6. Hence, the third option is correct.

Correct Answer: A scholarship was conferred to Kailash by the department.

Solution : The third option is the correct choice.

Passive voice is the voice in which the object experiences an action rather than the person who performs the action. Hence, the object in the active sentence becomes the subject in the passive voice.

The structure of the passive voice in the case of the simple past tense is: "Singular object + was + past participle of the verb + prepositional phrase + by followed by the agent of the action."

Therefore, the correct answer is: "A scholarship was conferred to Kailash by the department."
