Question : Directions: In a certain code language, CROWNED is written as OWRCEND. How will SERGENT be written in that language?
Option 1: REGSNET
Option 2: RGESNET
Option 3: RGESENT
Option 4: REGSENT
Correct Answer: RGESNET
Solution : Given: CROWNED is coded as OWRCEND.
Rearrange the position of the letters of CROWNED to get the required code.
Thus, CROWNED is coded as OWRCEND. Similarly, follow the same pattern for SERGENT –
So, SERGENT is coded as RGESNET. Hence the second option is correct.

Question : The price of diesel increased by 16%. A person wants to increase his expenditure on diesel by 10% only. By what percentage, correct to one decimal place, should he reduce his consumption?
Option 1: 6.5%
Option 2: 5.2%
Option 3: 3.7%
Option 4: 4.5%
Correct Answer: 5.2%
Solution : Let the price of diesel and quantity be Rs.100 and 100 litres. Total expenditure = Rs.100 × 100 = Rs.10000 The price of diesel increased by 16%. New price = 100 + 16 = 100 He wants to increase his expenditure on diesel by 10%
Question : If $x\cos^{2}30^{\circ}\cdot \sin60^{\circ}=\frac{\tan^{2}45^{\circ}\cdot \sec60^{\circ}}{\operatorname{cosec}60^{\circ}}$, then the value of $x$ is:
Option 1: $\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$
Option 2: $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$
Option 3: $2\frac{2}{3}$
Option 4: $\frac{1}{2}$
Correct Answer: $2\frac{2}{3}$
Solution : Given that $x\cos^{2}30^{\circ}\cdot \sin60^{\circ}=\frac{\tan^{2}45^{\circ}\cdot \sec60^{\circ}}{\operatorname{cosec}60^{\circ}}$ We know that, $\cos30^{\circ} = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$, so $\cos^{2}30^{\circ} = \frac{3}{4}$ $\sin60^{\circ} = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$ $\tan45^{\circ} = 1$, so $\tan^{2}45^{\circ} = 1$ $\sec60^{\circ}= 2$ $\operatorname{cosec}60^{\circ} =\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}$ Putting these values in the equation, we get: $x×\frac{3}{4}×\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}=\frac{1×2}{\frac{2}{\sqrt{3}}}$ ⇒ $x×\frac{3}{4}×\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}=\frac{2×\sqrt{3}}{{2}}$ Solving for $x$, we get:

Question : Directions: Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as the numbers of the following sets. (NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers without breaking down the numbers into their constituent digits. E.g. 13 - operations on 13 such as adding/subtracting/multiplying etc. to 13 can be performed. Breaking down 13 into 1 and 3 and then performing mathematical operations on 1 and 3 is not allowed.) (12, 15, 200) (10, 12, 140)
Option 1: (9, 5, 40)
Option 2: (6, 9, 74)
Option 3: (2, 4, 10)
Option 4: (7, 8, 56)
Correct Answer: (6, 9, 74)
Solution : Given: (12, 15, 200); (10, 12, 140)
In the given sets, multiply the first and the second numbers and then add 20 to the resultant to get the third number. (12, 15, 200)→12 × 15 = 180; 180 + 20 = 200 (10,
Question : Comprehension:
Read the passage and answer the questions that follow.
A new and extreme tourist attraction has just exploded onto the scene in Iceland: Volcano Walking. It would appear, according to Trip Advisor, that this is one trip that cannot be missed, despite the extortionate cost.
The idea of making Thrihnukagigur volcano accessible was the brainchild of Ami B. Stefansson, a doctor in Reykjavik and a lifelong cave enthusiast. He has been studying caves in Iceland since 1954 and some would argue that there is no one who has more experience.
Thrihnukagigur has always been special to Stefansson ever since he was the first to descend down to the crater base in 1974. Like most people who experience it, he was utterly spellbound by its uniqueness and beauty and made it his mission to protect and preserve this stunning natural phenomenon. Unlike others who may have only seen the profit that could be made from walking into the mouth of a volcano, Stefansson believed that the primary focus was to treat such a grand natural wonder with the utmost respect, to protect and defend it. The first 'volcano tourists' entered the volcano in 2005 and it has since been labelled as one of the most unique tourist attractions in the world.
Volcano walkers are taken to the mouth of the crater from where they are lowered in a basket into the depths of the earth. People once thought that volcanoes were portals to Hell and associated with death and destruction and yet the entrance to the crater is awe-inspiring and almost ethereal. The vastness of it can feel overwhelming; it is the size of a cathedral and the Statue of Liberty could easily fit into the shaft. After 6 minutes and 120 metres, visitors arrive at the crater base. The ground space is the size of three full-sized basketball courts placed next to each
At the bottom, there is a reverent hush. People whisper in respect to the sleeping giant who has lain dormant for 4,000 years. The subterranean walls are scorched with colours from a divine palette: magenta red, vibrant purple, burnt orange, vivid green and honey yellow. The colour intensifies in certain places where 4000 years ago the magma was pushed out with brutal force. This is Mother Nature's secret place, her private art studio where visitors feel like trespassers. The protruding rock faces show a tapestry of patterns and formations that have been moulded by heat, pressure and time. Floodlights illuminate the walls and draw attention to the beauty humans were never intended to see. A light rain weeps from the porous rock above and covers the crater sides with a shine that makes it sparkle. The scorch marks can be seen close up - at one point in time these rock faces were glowing red with fiery heat. This giant, although sleeping, is still dangerous: an 80-metre drop into the void is disguised by a collection of rocks close to where visitors stand.
It is a soul-enriching experience and visitors often report feeling deeply moved by the beauty and tranquillity of something that was once so destructive and angry. Confronted with this result of the unrestrained forces of nature, it is hard not to feel small and powerless in comparison. Sadly, the magical spell is broken when the basket appears, indicating that it is time for visitors to return to reality. On the return hike, visitors walk across the lava fields as though they are astronauts on the moon. They pass enormous open wounds where the landscape is literally tearing itself apart as tectonic plates slowly shift. It serves as one final reminder that this giant is merely dormant, not dead.
Question: The volcano is referred to as the 'sleeping giant' in the passage because
Option 1: it is very deep.
Option 2: it is very destructive.
Option 3: it is a dormant volcano.
Option 4: it is an active volcano.
Correct Answer: it is a dormant volcano.
Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

Question : Sentences of a paragraph are given below in jumbled order. Arrange the sentences in the correct order to form a meaningful and coherent paragraph. A. On the afternoon of that eventful day, I stood on the porch, dumb, expectant and guessed vaguely from my mother's signs and from the hurrying to and fro in the house that something unusual was about to happen, so I went to the door and waited on the steps. B. I did not know what the future held of marvel or surprise for me and anger and bitterness had preyed upon me continually for weeks and a deep languor had succeeded this passionate struggle. C. The most important day I remember in all my life is the one on which my teacher, Anne Mansfield Sullivan, came to me and I am filled with wonder when I consider the immeasurable contrasts between the two lives which it connects and it was the third of March, 1887, three months before I was seven years old. D. The afternoon sun penetrated the mass of honeysuckle that covered the porch, and fell on my upturned face and my fingers lingered almost unconsciously on the familiar leaves and blossoms which had just come forth to greet the sweet southern spring.
