Question : What is the value of the given expression?
$(a+b+c)^2-a^2-b^2-c^2$

Option 1: $2abc$

Option 2: $2(ab+bc+ca)$

Option 3: $2(a+b+c)$

Option 4: $2ab+bc-2ca$

Team Careers360 18th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $2(ab+bc+ca)$


Solution : By using the identity:
$(a+b+c)^{2} = a^{2}+b^{2}+c^{2}+2(ab+bc+ca)$
$\therefore$ $(a+b+c)^{2}- a^{2}- b^{2}- c^{2} = 2(ab+bc+ca)$.
Hence, the correct answer is $2(ab+bc+ca)$.

Question : The length of the chord of a circle is 24 cm, and the perpendicular distance between the centre and the chord is 5 cm. The radius of the circle is:

Option 1: 10 cm

Option 2: 13 cm

Option 3: 12 cm

Option 4: 24 cm

Team Careers360 19th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 13 cm


Solution :
AB = 24 cm
And OC = 5 cm
We have to find AO.
C is the middle point of the chord.
$\therefore$ AC = $\frac{24}{2} = 12\ \mathrm{cm}$
Using Pythagoras theorem,
$\text{AO}^2 = \text{AC}^2 + \text{OC}^2$
⇒ $\text{AO}^2 = 12^2 + 5^2$
