The percentage of girls from the Biology department compared to the total number of girls from all the other Departments together is:

Option 1: $37\frac{1}{2}$

Option 2: 37

Option 3: $36\frac{1}{2}$

Option 4: $35\frac{1}{2}$

Solution : Girls in Biology = 300
Girls in all other departments = 140 + 180 + 260 + 220 = 800
Required percentage = $\frac{\text{Girl in biology}}{\text{Total girls}}\times 100$
$\therefore$ Required percentage = $\frac{300}{800}\times 100=37\frac{1}{2}$%

Question : If $\sec 3\mathrm{A}=\operatorname{cosec}\left(\mathrm{A}-72^{\circ}\right)$, then what is the value of A ?

Option 2: 30°

Option 3: 40.5°

Option 4: 25°

Team Careers360 21st Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 40.5°


Solution : $\sec 3A = \operatorname{cosec} (A - 72°)$
⇒ $\sec 3A = \sec [90° - (A - 72°)]$
⇒ $\sec 3A = \sec (162° - A)$
⇒ $3A = 162° - A$
⇒ $4A = 162°$
⇒ $A = 40.5°$
Hence, the correct answer is 40.5°.
