Question : The distance between the centres of two circles having radii 16 cm and 8 cm, is 26 cm. The length (in cm) of the direct common tangent of the two circles is:
Option 1: $2 \sqrt{132}$
Option 2: $\sqrt{153}$
Option 3: $2 \sqrt{153}$
Option 4: $\sqrt{132}$
Correct Answer: $2 \sqrt{153}$
Solution : Given: The radius of the bigger circle $r_1= 16$ The radius of the smaller circle $r_2= 8$ Distance between the centres, $d = 26$ So, the length of the direct common tangent, $l = \sqrt{d^2-(r_1-r_2)^2}$ $= \sqrt{26^2-(16-8)^2}$ $=\sqrt{676-64}$ $= \sqrt{612}$ $=2\sqrt{153}$ So, the length
Question : Direction: In the following question, a series is given with one or more alphabet missing. Choose the correct alternative from the given options.

Question : Directions: In a certain code language, CAKES is written as FXNBV, and ABUSE is written as DYXPH. How will BARKS be written in that language?
Option 1: EXVHU
Option 2: EXUIU
Option 3: EXUIV
Option 4: EXUHV
Correct Answer: EXUHV
Solution : Given: CAKES is written as FXNBV and ABUSE is written as DYXPH.
Add and subtract 3 alternately from the place value of each letter of CAKES to obtain the required code – C + 3 = F; A – 3 = X; K + 3
Question : Directions: In this question, some equations are solved on the same basis as a certain system. On the same basis, find out the correct answer from the four alternatives for the unsolved equation. If 4 × 3 = 14, 5 × 4 = 18 and 6 × 5 = 22, then find the value of 7 × 6 = ?
Option 1: 20
Option 2: 26
Option 3: 30
Option 4: 42
Correct Answer: 26
Solution : Given: 4 × 3 = 14; 5 × 4 = 18; 6 × 5 = 22
Multiply 2 by the sum of the numbers on the L.H.S. Like, 4 × 3 = 14→(4 + 3) × 2 = 7 × 2 = 14 5 ×
