Question : AB is a chord in a circle with centre O. AB is produced to C such that BC is equal to the radius of the circle. C is joined to O and produced to meet the circle at D. If $\angle \mathrm{ACD}=32^{\circ}$, then the measure of $\angle \mathrm{AOD}$ is _____.

Option 1: 48°

Option 2: 96°

Option 3: 108°

Option 4: 80°

Team Careers360 17th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 96°


Solution :
In $\triangle$OBC
OB = BC 
So, $\angle$ BOC = $\angle$ BCO = 32°
Also, $\angle$ OBA = $\angle$ BOC + $\angle$ BCO = 32° + 32° = 64°
Since OA = OB
$\angle$ OAB = $\angle$ OBA
In $\triangle$ AOB
$\angle$  AOB + $\angle$  OAB

Question : In a $\triangle P Q R, \angle P: \angle Q: \angle R=3: 4: 8$. The shortest side and the longest side of the triangle, respectively, are:

Option 1: PQ and PR

Option 2: QR and PR

Option 3: PQ and QR

Option 4: QR and PQ

Team Careers360 17th Jan, 2024

Question : If $x=3 - 2\sqrt2$, then $\sqrt x+(\frac{1}{\sqrt x})$ is equal to:

Option 1: $0$

Option 2: $1$

Option 3: $2$

Option 4: $2\sqrt2$

Team Careers360 16th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $2\sqrt2$


Solution : Given:
$x = 3 - 2\sqrt{2}$
According to the question,
Let $y = \sqrt{x}+\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}$
Squaring both sides,
$y^2 = x + \frac{1}{x}+2$
Put the value $x$,
$y^2 = 3 - 2\sqrt{2} + \frac{1}{3-2\sqrt{2}} + 2$
or, $y^2 = 3 - 2\sqrt{2} + \frac{1}{3-2\sqrt{2}} × \frac{3+\sqrt{2}}{3
