Question : The distance between the points $(4, 8)$ and $(k, –4)$ is $13$. What is the value of $k$?

Option 1: 1

Option 2: 3

Option 3: –1

Option 4: –3

Team Careers360 23rd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: –1


Solution : Given: The distance between the points (4, 8) and $(k, –4)$ is 13.
Since we know that distance formula is $\sqrt{(x_2–x_1)^2+(y_2–y_1)^2}$.
$13=\sqrt{(k–4)^2+(–4–8)^2}$
Squaring both sides of the above equation, we get,
$13^2=(k–4)^2+(–4–8)^2$
⇒ $169=k^2+16–8k+144$
⇒ $k^2–8k–9=0$
⇒ $k^2–9k+k–9=0$
⇒ $k(k–9)+1(k–9)=0$
⇒ $(k–9)(k+1)=0$
⇒ $k=9,–1$
Hence,

Question : A sector of a circle of radius 10 cm is formed at a 60° angle at the centre. What will be its area $($take $\pi=3.14)?$

Option 1: 52.33 cm2

Option 2: 75.28 cm2

Option 3: 60.67 cm2

Option 4: 55.00 cm2

Team Careers360 9th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 52.33 cm2


Solution : Given:
The radius of the circle is 10 cm.
Sector is with an angle, $\theta$ = 60°.
Area of the sector = $\pi r^2× \frac{\theta}{360°}$
= $3.14×10^2× \frac{60°}{360°}$
= 52.33 cm2
So, the area of the sector is 52.33 cm2.
