Question : In a triangle ${ABC}, {AB}={AC}$ and the perimeter of $\triangle {ABC}$ is $8(2+\sqrt{2}) $ cm. If the length of ${BC}$ is $\sqrt{2}$ times the length of ${AB}$, then find the area of $\triangle {ABC}$.
Option 1: $32 \ cm^2$
Option 2: $28 \ cm^2$
Option 3: $16 \ cm^2$
Option 4: $36 \ cm^2$
Correct Answer: $32 \ cm^2$
Solution : Given: In a triangle ${ABC}, {AB}={AC}$ and the perimeter of $\triangle {ABC}$ is $8(2+\sqrt{2}) $ cm. The length of ${BC}$ is $\sqrt{2}$ times the length of ${AB}$. Let the sides $AB=AC=x$ cm. ⇒ $BC=\sqrt2x$ cm The perimeter of the triangle, $x+x+\sqrt2x=8(2+\sqrt2)$ ⇒ $x(2+\sqrt2)=8(2+\sqrt2)$

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 of the given conclusions logically follow(s) from the statements. Statements: All pens are tables. All rubbers are pens. Conclusions: I. All pens are rubbers. II. All tables are pens. III. No rubber is a table.
Option 1: Both conclusions II and III follow
Option 2: All conclusions follow
Option 3: Only conclusion III follows
Option 4: Neither conclusion follows
Correct Answer: Neither conclusion follows
Solution : The possible Venn diagram according to the given statements is as follows –
Let's analyse the conclusions – Conclusion (I): All pens are rubbers- As shown in the diagram, all rubbers are pens which means that some pens are rubber. So, this conclusion
Question : A water tank can be filled by a tap in 30 minutes and another tap can fill it in 60 minutes. If both the taps are kept open for 5 minutes and then the first tap is closed, how long will it take for the remaining tank to be full?
Option 1: 20 minutes
Option 2: 25 minutes
Option 3: 30 minutes
Option 4: 45 minutes
Correct Answer: 45 minutes
Solution : One minute's work of Tap A = $\frac{1}{30}$ One minute's work of Tap B = $\frac{1}{60}$ For 5 minutes, both taps are open $(\frac{1}{30}+\frac{1}{60})$×5 = $\frac{15}{60}$ = $\frac{1}{4}$ part of tank is full in 5 minutes Remaining part $=1-\frac{1}{4}=\frac{3}{4}$ So, $\frac{3}{4}$ of the remaining
Question : In the given figure, PQR is a quadrant whose radius is 7 cm. A circle is inscribed in the quadrant as shown in the figure. What is the area (in cm2) of the circle?
Option 1: $385-221\sqrt{2}$
Option 2: $308-154\sqrt{2}$
Option 3: $154-77\sqrt{2}$
Option 4: $462-308\sqrt{2}$
Correct Answer: $462-308\sqrt{2}$
Solution :
Let the radius of the circle = $r$ cm The radius of the quadrant = QM = QR = QP = 7 cm From the figure, $OS=OT=OM=QT=r$ cm ⇒ $OQ=(7-r)$ cm In $\triangle QTO$, $OQ^2=OT^2+QT^2$ ⇒ $(7-r)^2=r^2+r^2$ ⇒ $(7-r)^2=2r^2$ ⇒ $7-r=r\sqrt2$ ⇒ $r=\frac{7}{\sqrt2+1}=7(\sqrt2-1)$ The area
Question : The following pie charts show the number of start-ups started in various sectors since 2016 and the number of successful start-ups in those sectors respectively. Out of all the start-ups that started in 2016, what percentage (approx. up to two decimal places) started in the travel sector?
Option 1: $13.12 \%$
Option 2: $12.19 \%$
Option 3: $12.91 \%$
Option 4: $13.21 \%$
Correct Answer: $12.91 \%$
Solution : Total number of startups = 560 + 720 + 324 + 650 + 256 = 2510 Number of startups in the travel sector = 324 Percentage of startups in travel sector = $\frac{324}{2510}\times 100=12.91\%$ Hence, the correct answer is $12.91\%$
