Question : The perimeters of two similar triangles $\triangle$ABC and $\triangle$PQR are 36 cm and 24 cm respectively. If PQ = 10 cm, then AB is:
Option 1: 15 cm
Option 2: 12 cm
Option 3: 14 cm
Option 4: 26 cm
Correct Answer: 15 cm
Solution : $\triangle$ABC ~ $\triangle$PQR Perimeter($\triangle$ABC) = 36 cm Perimeter($\triangle$PQR) = 24 cm PQ = 10 cm $\frac{AB}{PQ}$ = $\frac{\text{Perimeter($\triangle$ABC)}}{\text{Perimeter($\triangle$PQR)}}$ ⇒ $\frac{AB}{10}$ = $\frac{36}{24}$ ⇒ AB = $\frac{360}{24}$ = 15 cm Hence, the correct answer is 15 cm.

Question : A man sells a good at 5% profit. If he had sold it at a 10% profit, he would have received INR 175 more. What is the selling price of the good?
Option 1: INR 3,750
Option 2: INR 3,850
Option 3: INR 3,675
Option 4: INR 3,500
Correct Answer: INR 3,675
Solution : Let the cost price be Rs. $x$. As per the given conditions, $\frac{105x}{100}+175=\frac{110x}{100}$ ⇒ $\frac{5x}{100}=175$ $\therefore x=3500$ Now, selling price = $\frac{105x}{100} = 3500\times \frac{105}{100}=3675$ Hence, the correct answer is INR 3,675.
