Question : An isosceles triangle ABC is right-angled at B. D is a point inside the triangle ABC. P and Q are the feet of the perpendicular drawn from D on the sides AB and AC respectively of ABC. If $AP = a$ cm , $AQ = b$ cm and $\angle$BAD = 15°, $\sin$ 75°= ?
Option 1: $\frac{2b}{\sqrt 3 a }$
Option 2: $\frac{a}{2b}$
Option 3: $\frac{\sqrt 3a}{2b}$
Option 4: $\frac{2a}{\sqrt 3b}$
Correct Answer: $\frac{\sqrt 3a}{2b}$
Solution : Since $\triangle$ABC is a right-angled isosceles triangle, $\angle$A = $\frac{180 - 90}{2}$ = 45° $\angle$DAQ = $\angle$A–$\angle$BAD = 45° – 15° = 30° $\sin$ $\angle$ADQ = $\sin$ 60° = $\frac{AQ}{AD}$ $\frac{b}{AD}$ = $\frac{\sqrt3}{2}$ AD = $\frac{2b}{\sqrt3}$ From $\triangle$APD, $\sin$ 75° = $\frac{AP}{AD}$ = $\frac{a}{\frac{2b}{\sqrt3}}$
Question : A man gives 50% of his money to his son and 30% to his daughter. 80% of the rest is donated to a trust. If he is left with Rs. 16,000 now, how much money did he have in the beginning?
Option 1: Rs. 40,000
Option 2: Rs. 8,00,000
Option 3: Rs. 80,000
Option 4: Rs. 4,00,000
Correct Answer: Rs. 4,00,000
Solution : Let us assume the income of the man is Rs. $x$. According to the question, he gives 50% of his money to his son and 30% to his daughter. $\therefore$ The money he is left with = $x-\frac{x}{2}-\frac{3x}{10}$ $= \frac{10x-5x-3x}{10}$ $=\frac{2x}{10}=\frac{x}{5}$ According to the
Question : Directions: What should come in place of the question mark (?) in the given series? 339, 340, 348, ?, 439
Option 1: 377
Option 2: 492
Option 3: 380
Option 4: 375
Correct Answer: 375
Solution : Given: 339, 340, 348, ?, 439
Add the cubes of the consecutive numbers (starting from 1) to each term to get the next term in the series. 339 + (1)3 = 339 + 1 = 340 340 + (2)3 = 340 + 8

Question : In the context of trans-fats, which of the following statements is not correct?
Option 1: They have a shorter shelf-life than natural fats.
Option 2: Their consumption increases LDL cholesterol and decreases HDL cholesterol.
Option 3: They are produced from the industrial process of hydrogenation.
Option 4: WHO has called for their elimination by 2023.
Correct Answer: They have a shorter shelf-life than natural fats.
Solution : The correct answer is They have a shorter shelf life than natural fats.
The shelf life is longer than that of natural fat. Additionally, consuming trans fats can increase LDL cholesterol and decrease HDL cholesterol. These fats
Question : If the ratio of principal and the simple interest for 5 years is 10 : 3, then the rate of interest is:
Option 1: 5%
Option 2: 6%
Option 3: 8%
Option 4: 3%
Correct Answer: 6%
Solution : According to the question, $\frac{\text{Principal}}{\text{Simple interest}}=\frac{10}{3}$ Let, Principal = Rs. 10 Simple Interest (SI) for 5 years = Rs. 3 So, SI for 1 year = $\frac{3}{5} =0.6$ $\therefore$ Rate = $\frac{\text{Simple interest}\times 100}{\text{Principal × Time}}=\frac{0.6\times 100}{10 \times 1}=6$% Hence, the correct answer is 6%.

Question : $\triangle$ABC is similar to $\triangle$PQR and AB : PQ = 2 : 3. AD is the median to the side BC in $\triangle$ABC and PS is the median to the side QR in $\triangle$PQR. What is the value of $(\frac{BD}{QS})^2$?
Option 1: $\frac{3}{5}$
Option 2: $\frac{4}{9}$
Option 3: $\frac{2}{3}$
Option 4: $\frac{4}{7}$
Correct Answer: $\frac{4}{9}$
Solution : AB : PQ = 2 : 3 As $\triangle$ABC is similar to $\triangle$PQR, $\frac{AB}{PQ}$ = $\frac{BC}{QR}$ = $\frac{CA}{RP}$ = $\frac{AD}{PS}$ = $\frac{BD}{QS}$ = $\frac{DC}{SR}$ = $\frac{2}{3}$ $(\frac{BD}{QS})^2$ = $(\frac{2}{3})^2$ = $\frac{4}{9}$ Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{4}{9}$.
