Question : If, in a competitive exam, the marks obtained by Sam are 19% less than those of Peter, then the marks obtained by Peter are how much percentage more than the marks obtained by Sam? (Correct to two decimal places)

Option 1: 28.64%

Option 4: 23.46%

Team Careers360 15th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 23.46%


Solution : Let the marks of Peter be $100$.
$\therefore$ Marks obtained by sam = $\frac{(100-19)}{100}\times 100=\frac{81}{100}\times 100 = 81$
Now, the percentage of marks obtained by Peter is more than that of Sam's
= $\frac{19}{81}\times 100$
= $23.46{\%}$
Hence, the correct answer is 23.46%.

Question : If $\tan \alpha = 6$, then $\sec \alpha$ is equal to:

Option 1: $\sqrt{7}$

Option 2: $\sqrt{5}$

Option 3: $\sqrt{37}$

Option 4: $\sqrt{35}$

Team Careers360 11th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $\sqrt{37}$


Solution : Given:
$\tan \alpha=6$
We know,
$\sec^2 \alpha-\tan^2 \alpha=1$
⇒ $\sec^2 \alpha-6^2=1$
⇒ $\sec^2 \alpha=36+1$
$\therefore \sec \alpha=\sqrt{37}$
Hence, the correct answer is $\sqrt{37}$.
