Question : Which of the following statement(s) is/are TRUE? I. $\sqrt{11}+\sqrt7<\sqrt{10}+\sqrt8$ II. $\sqrt{17}+\sqrt{11}>\sqrt{15}+\sqrt{13}$
Option 1: Only I
Option 2: Only II
Option 3: Both I and II
Option 4: Neither I nor II
Correct Answer: Only I
Solution : Evaluating the given statements: I. $\sqrt{11}+\sqrt7<\sqrt{10}+\sqrt8$ Squaring both sides we get: ⇒ $(\sqrt{11}+\sqrt7)^2<(\sqrt{10}+\sqrt8)^2$ ⇒ $11+7+2\sqrt{77}<10+8+2\sqrt{80}$ ⇒ $18+2\sqrt{77}<18+2\sqrt{80}$ So, statement I is true. II. $\sqrt{17}+\sqrt{11}>\sqrt{15}+\sqrt{13}$ Squaring both sides we get: ⇒ $(\sqrt{17}+\sqrt{11})^2>(\sqrt{15}+\sqrt{13})^2$ ⇒ $17+11+2\sqrt{187}>15+13+2\sqrt{195}$ ⇒ $28+2\sqrt{187}>28+2\sqrt{195}$ So, statement II is wrong. Hence, the correct answer is 'Only I'.

Question : Directions: In the following question, a sentence is given with a blank that is to be filled in with an appropriate word. Four alternatives are suggested; choose the correct alternative out of them as your answer.
Do not look _________ on women.
Option 1: down
Option 2: right
Option 3: left
Option 4: up
Correct Answer: down
Solution : The first option is the correct answer.
In the context of the sentence, the word "down" is the most appropriate choice. The phrase "look down on" means to regard someone with disdain or contempt or to treat one as inferior. So, the sentence states not to treat women with disdain or contempt. The other options do not convey the intended meaning.
Therefore, the sentence would be, "Do not look down on women."
Question : If in a $\triangle$ABC, D and E are on the sides AB and AC, such that, DE is parallel to BC and $\frac{AD}{BD}$ = $\frac{3}{5}$. If AC = 4 cm, then AE is:
Option 1: 1.5 cm
Option 2: 2.0 cm
Option 3: 1.8 cm
Option 4: 2.4 cm
Correct Answer: 1.5 cm
Solution : Given: $\frac{AD}{BD}$ = $\frac{3}{5}$ In $\triangle$ABC and $\triangle$DBE, $\angle$BAC = $\angle$DAE (same angle) $\angle$ADE = $\angle$ABC (corresponding angles) $\angle$AED = $\angle$ACB (corresponding angles) By AAA similarity, $\triangle$ABC ~ $\triangle$ADE ⇒ $\frac{AD}{AB}$ = $\frac{AD}{AD+BD}$ = $\frac{3}{3+5}$ = $\frac{3}{8}$ Now, $\frac{AD}{AB}$ = $\frac{AE}{AC}$ ⇒ $\frac{3}{8}$ = $\frac{AE}{4}$ [since AC = 4 cm] ⇒ AE = $\frac{3×4}{8}$ = 1.5 cm Hence, the correct answer is 1.5 cm.
