Question : A man standing on the bank of a river observes that the angle of elevation of the top of a tree just on the opposite bank is $60°$. But the angle of elevation is $30°$ from a point which is at a distance $20\sqrt{3}$ ft away from the bank. Then the height of the tree is:
Option 1: 60 ft
Option 2: 45 ft
Option 3: 30 ft
Option 4: 15 ft
Correct Answer: 30 ft
Solution : Let $h$ be the height of the tree and $x$ be the breadth of the river. From the above figure we get, $\tan60°=\frac{h}{x}$ ⇒ $\sqrt{3}=\frac{h}{x}$ ⇒ $x=\frac{h}{\sqrt{3}}$----------(equation 1) Also, $\tan30°=\frac{h}{x+20\sqrt{3}}$ ⇒ $\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{h}{x+20\sqrt{3}}$ ⇒ $x=h\sqrt{3}–20\sqrt{3}$ ---------(equation 2) Now equalising the values of $x$ from both
Question : Directions: Read the given statements and conclusions carefully. Assuming that the information given in the statements is true, even if it appears to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which conclusions logically follow(s) from the statements. Statements: I. Some A are B. II. All C are B. Conclusions: I. Some B are A is a possibility. II. No C is A. III. All A are C.

Question : A circle and a square have the same area. The ratio of the side of the square to the radius of the circle will be:
Option 1: $\sqrt\pi:1$
Option 2: $1:\sqrt\pi$
Option 3: $(\pi)^2:1$
Option 4: $1:\sqrt2\pi$
Correct Answer: $\sqrt\pi:1$
Solution : Given: A circle and a square have the same area. We know that the area of the square is $a^2$, where $a$ is its side, and the area of the circle is $\pi\times r^2$, where $r$ is its radius. According to the question, $\pi\times r^2=a^2$
