Question : Two candidates A and B contested in an election. 80% of the voters cast their votes, out of which 2% of the votes were invalid. A got 9,408 votes which was 60% of the valid votes. Find the total number of votes.

Option 1: 12,000

Option 2: 22,000

Option 3: 20,000

Option 4: 21,000

Team Careers360 15th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 20,000


Solution : Let $x$ be the total number of votes.
Number of votes casted = 80% of $x$ = $\frac{80}{100}×x$
Number of invalid votes = 2% of votes cast 
Number of valid votes = 98% of votes cast= $\frac{98}{100}×\frac{80}{100}×x$
Number of votes A got = 60% of

Question : 12 copies of a book were sold for Rs. 1700, thereby gaining the cost price of 3 copies. The cost price of a copy of the book is:

Option 1: Rs. 120

Option 2: Rs. 150

Option 3: Rs. 1200

Option 4: Rs. 1500

Team Careers360 22nd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: Rs. 120


Solution : Let the cost price of 1 book = Rs. $x$
Selling price of 12 books = Rs. 1800
Gain = $3x$
Selling price of 12 books – Cost price of 12 books = Gain
⇒ $1800−12x=3x$
⇒ $1800=12x+3x$
⇒ $1800=15x$
⇒ $x=120$
∴ Cost

Question : $D$ is a point on the side $BC$ of a triangle $ABC$ such that $AD\perp BC$. $E$ is a point on $AD$ for which $AE:ED=5:1$. If $\angle BAD=30^{\circ}$ and $\tan \left ( \angle ACB \right )=6\tan \left ( \angle DBE \right )$, then $\angle ACB =$

Option 1: $30^{\circ}$

Option 2: $45^{\circ}$

Option 3: $60^{\circ}$

Option 4: $15^{\circ}$

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $60^{\circ}$


Solution :

Given that $AE:ED=5:1$, $\angle BAD=30^{\circ}$ and $\tan \left ( \angle ACB \right )=6\tan \left ( \angle DBE \right )$
Let $AE$ and $ED$ be $5x,x$.
So, $DE=x, AE=5x$ and $AD=6x$
In $\triangle ABD$,
$\angle ABD+\angle BAD=90^{\circ}$
⇒ $\angle ABD =90^{\circ}-\angle BAD$
⇒ $\angle ABD =90^{\circ}-30^{\circ}=60^{\circ}$

Question : If $\cos\theta+\sin\theta=m$ and $\sec\theta+\operatorname{cosec \theta}=n$, then the value $n\left ( m^{2}-1 \right )$ is equal to:

Option 1: $2m$

Option 2: $mn$

Option 3: $4mn$

Option 4: $2n$

Team Careers360 14th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $2m$


Solution : We know that $\cos\theta+\sin\theta=m$ and $\sec\theta+\operatorname{cosec \theta}=n$.
$⇒n\left ( m^{2}-1 \right ) = \left(\frac{1}{\cos\theta}+\frac{1}{\sin\theta}\right)\left((\cos\theta+\sin\theta)^{2}-1\right)$
$⇒n\left ( m^{2}-1 \right ) = \left(\frac{1}{\cos\theta}+\frac{1}{\sin\theta}\right)\left(\cos^{2}\theta+2\sin\theta\cos\theta+\sin^{2}\theta-1\right)$
We know that $\cos^{2}\theta+\sin^{2}\theta=1$,
$⇒n\left ( m^{2}-1 \right ) = \left(\frac{1}{\cos\theta}+\frac{1}{\sin\theta}\right)\left(2\sin\theta\cos\theta\right)$
$⇒n\left ( m^{2}-1 \right ) = 2\sin\theta\cos\theta\left(\frac{1}{\cos\theta}+\frac{1}{\sin\theta}\right)$
$⇒n\left ( m^{2}-1 \right ) =

Question : The angle of elevation of an aeroplane as observed from a point 30 metres above the transparent water surface of a lake is 30° and the angle of the depression of the image of the aeroplane in the water of the lake is 60°. The height of the aeroplane from the water surface of the lake is:

Option 1: 60 metres

Option 2: 45 metres

Option 3: 50 metres

Option 4: 75 metres

Team Careers360 16th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 60 metres


Solution :
AB = transparent water surface then according to question,
$\triangle$CPM = 30°; $\angle$C'PM = 60°
CM = $h$
CB = Height of the aeroplane from the water surface of the lake = $h + 30$
$\therefore$ C'B = $h + 30$
In $\triangle$CMP, tan
