Question : Which of the following expressions is equal to the expression $\frac{x^2-3 x+2}{x^2-4}$?

Option 1: $\frac{x+1}{x-2}$

Option 2: $\frac{x-1}{x+2}$

Option 3: $\frac{x+1}{x+2}$

Option 4: $\frac{x-1}{x-2}$

Question : If I walk at $\frac{7}{6}$th of my usual speed, then I reach my office 15 minutes early. What is the usual time taken (in minutes) by me to reach the office?

Option 1: 60

Option 2: 75

Option 3: 90

Option 4: 105

Team Careers360 20th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 105


Solution : Let the usual time, speed, and distance be $t$ hours, $u$ km/hr, and $d$ km, respectively.
$\frac{d}{u}=t$
Time taken by current speed – time taken by usual speed = $\frac{15}{60}$
$⇒\frac{d}{u}-\frac{d}{\frac{7u}{6}}=\frac{15}{60}$
$⇒t-\frac{6t}{7}=\frac{1}{4}$
$⇒\frac{t}{7} =\frac{1}{4}$
$⇒t=\frac{7}{4}$ hours
$\therefore t=\frac{7}{4}\times 60= 105$ minutes
Hence, the correct answer

Question : If $\tan \theta \cdot \tan 2 \theta=1$, then the value of $\cot 5 \theta$ is:

Option 1: $-1$

Option 2: $1$

Option 3: $-\sqrt{3}$

Option 4: $\sqrt{3}$

Team Careers360 19th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $-\sqrt{3}$


Solution : Given: $\tan \theta \cdot \tan 2 \theta=1$
$⇒\tan2\theta=\cot\theta$
$⇒\tan2\theta=\tan(90°- \theta)$
$⇒2\theta=90°- \theta$
$⇒3\theta=90°$
$\therefore \theta=30°$
$\cot 5\theta=\cot(5×30°)=\cot 150°=\cot(90°+60°)=-\tan60°=-\sqrt3$
Hence, the correct answer is $-\sqrt3$.
