Question : In $\triangle$PQR, a straight line parallel to the base, QR cuts PQ at X and PR at Y. If PX : XQ = 5 : 6, then XY : QR will be:

Option 1: 5 : 11

Option 2: 6 : 5

Option 3: 11 : 6

Option 4: 11 : 5

Team Careers360 14th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 5 : 11


Solution :
Given:
In $\triangle$PQR, QR || XY
$\frac{PX}{XQ}=\frac{5}{6}$
Let PX = 5 units, XQ = 6 units
So, PQ = 5 + 6 = 11 units
In ∆ PXY and ∆ PQR,
∵ QR | | XY
∵ $\angle$X = $\angle$Q ; $\angle$Y =

Question : If $a(\tan\theta +\cot \theta)=1$, $\sin\theta +\cos\theta =b$ with $0^{\circ}< \theta < 90^{\circ}$, then a relation between $a$ and $b$ is:

Option 1: $b^{2}=2\left ( a+1 \right )$

Option 2: $b^{2}=2\left ( a-1 \right )$

Option 3: $2a=b^{2}-1$

Option 4: $2a=b^{2}+1$

Team Careers360 14th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $2a=b^{2}-1$


Solution : $a(\tan\theta +\cot \theta) = 1$
$⇒a(\frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta} + \frac{\cos\theta}{\sin\theta}) = 1$
$⇒a(\frac{\sin^2\theta+\cos^2\theta}{\sin\theta\cos\theta}) = 1$
$⇒a={\sin\theta\cos\theta}$
$\sin\theta +\cos\theta = b$ ......(i)
Squaring both sides,
$(\sin\theta +\cos\theta)^2 = b^2$
$⇒(\sin^2\theta +\cos^2\theta+2\sin\theta\cos\theta) = b^2$
$⇒1+2\sin\theta\cos\theta = b^2$
From equation (i)
$⇒1+2a = b^2$
$⇒2a=b^{2}-1$
Hence, the correct answer is

Solution : Given: Cost of daily ticket = Rs. 50
Monthly pass cost = Rs. 1125
Cost of daily ticket for a month = 30 × 50 = Rs. 1500
Monthly savings = 1500 – 1125 = Rs. 375
Savings percentage $=\frac{\text{Savings}}{\text{Cost of daily ticket for a
