Question : If a pole of 12 m height casts a shadow of $4\sqrt{3}$ m long on the ground, then the sun's angle of elevation at that instant is:

Option 1: 30°

Option 2: 60°

Option 3: 45°

Option 4: 90°

Team Careers360 18th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 60°


Solution :
Height of pole = 12 m
Length of shadow = $4\sqrt3$ m
Now, $\tan$ $\theta$ = $\frac{12}{4\sqrt3}$
⇒ $\tan$ $\theta$ = $\frac{3}{\sqrt3}$
⇒ $\tan$ $\theta$ = $\sqrt3$ = $\tan$ 60°
⇒ $\theta$ = 60°
Hence, the correct answer is 60°.

Question : A positive number is greater than thrice its reciprocal by $\frac{26}{3}$. What is the number?

Option 1: $10$

Option 2: $11$

Option 3: $9$

Option 4: $8$

Team Careers360 22nd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $9$


Solution : Let the number be $x$.
According to the question,
$x\text{ – $\frac{3}{x}$ = $\frac{26}{3}$}$
or, $3x^{2} – 9= 26x$
or, $3x^{2} –26x – 9 = 0$
or, $3x^{2} + 1x –27x – 9 = 0$
or, $x(3x+1)– 9(3x+1)=0$
or, $(3x+1)(x–9)=0$
or, $x = 9, -\frac{1}{3}$
