Question : A, B and C can work separately in 18, 36 and 54 days. They started the work together, but B and C left 5 days and 10 days, respectively, before the completion of the work. In how many days was the work finished?

Option 1: 15 days

Option 2: 13 days

Option 3: 14 days

Option 4: 12 days

Team Careers360 21st Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 13 days


Solution : A, B, and C can do work separately in 18, 36, and 54 days 
Let the total work = LCM (18, 36, and 54) = 108 units
Efficiency = $\frac{\text{Total work}}{\text{Number of days}}$
So, Efficiency of A = $\frac{108}{16}$ = 6
Efficiency of B

Question : If $\cos 21^{\circ}=\frac{x}{y}$, then $(\operatorname{cosec21^{\circ}}-\cos 69^{\circ})$ is equal to:

Option 1: $\frac{x^{2}}{y\sqrt{y^{2}-x^{2}}}$

Option 2:

$\frac{y^{2}}{x\sqrt{y^{2}-x^{2}}}$

Option 3:

$\frac{y^{2}}{x\sqrt{x^{2}-y^{2}}}$

Option 4: $\frac{x^{2}}{y\sqrt{x^{2}-y^{2}}}$

Team Careers360 16th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $\frac{x^{2}}{y\sqrt{y^{2}-x^{2}}}$


Solution : Given:
$\cos 21^{\circ}=\frac{x}{y}$
So, $\cos 69^{\circ}=\cos (90^{\circ}-21^{\circ})=\sin 21^{\circ}= \sqrt{1-\cos^2 21º}=\sqrt{1-\frac{x^2}{y^2}}=\frac{\sqrt{y^2-{x^2}}}{y}$
Also, $\operatorname{cosec21^{\circ}}=\frac{1}{\sin 21^{\circ}}=\frac{y}{\sqrt{y^2-{x^2}}}$
Now, $(\operatorname{cosec21^{\circ}}-\cos 69^{\circ})=\frac{y}{\sqrt{y^2-{x^2}}}-\frac{\sqrt{y^2-{x^2}}}{y}$
⇒ $(\operatorname{cosec21^{\circ}}-\cos 69^{\circ})=\frac{y^2-(y^2-x^2)}{y\sqrt{y^2-{x^2}}}=\frac{x^{2}}{y\sqrt{y^{2}-x^{2}}}$
Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{x^{2}}{y\sqrt{y^{2}-x^{2}}}$.

Question : PQ is a tangent of a circle at T. If TR = TS where R and S are points on the circle and $\angle RST=65^{\circ}$, the $\angle PTS=?$

Option 1: $65^{\circ}$

Option 2: $130^{\circ}$

Option 3: $115^{\circ}$

Option 4: $55^{\circ}$

Team Careers360 20th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $115^{\circ}$


Solution :

In $\triangle TRS$
$TR=TS$
$\therefore \angle TRS= \angle RST$
Thus, $\angle TRS=65^\circ$
Now, $\angle STQ$ is the angle between the tangent $PTQ$ and chord $TS$
$\therefore \angle STQ=\angle TRS = 65^\circ$
Tangent $PTQ$ is a straight line,
$\therefore \angle PTS+\angle STQ=180^\circ$
⇒ $\angle PTS+65^\circ=180^\circ$
⇒
