Question : The simplest value of $\sin^{2}x+2\tan^{2}x-2\sec^{2}x+\cos^{2}x$ is:
Option 1: 1
Option 2: 0
Option 3: –1
Option 4: 2
Correct Answer: –1
Solution : Given: $\sin^{2}x+2\tan^{2}x-2\sec^{2}x+\cos^{2}x$ We know that, $\sec^2x=\tan^2x+1$ and $\sin^2x+\cos^2x=1$ Putting the values, we get: = $\sin^{2}x+2\tan^{2}x-2(\tan^2x+1)+\cos^{2}x$ = $\sin^{2}x+\cos^{2}x+2\tan^{2}x-2\tan^2x-2$ = $1-2$ = $-1$ Hence, the correct answer is –1.
Question : The side QR of an equilateral triangle PQR is produced to the point S in such a way that QR = RS and P is joined to S. Then the measure of $\angle PSR$ is:
Option 1: $30^{\circ}$
Option 2: $15^{\circ}$
Option 3: $60^{\circ}$
Option 4: $45^{\circ}$
Correct Answer: $30^{\circ}$
Solution :
Given: $PQR$ is an equilateral triangle and $QR = RS$ $⇒\angle PRS = 180^{\circ} - 60^{\circ} = 120^{\circ}$ We have, $PR = RQ$ and $RQ = RS$, it follows that $RS = PR$ $\therefore \angle PSR = \angle RPS$ The sum of angles in a

Question : S alone can do a piece of work in 14 days. T alone can do the same work in 21 days. U alone can do the same work in 28 days. Working together, in how many days will they complete the work?
Option 1: $\frac{84}{13}$ days
Option 2: $\frac{77}{13}$ days
Option 3: $\frac{71}{13}$ days
Option 4: $\frac{87}{13}$ days
Correct Answer: $\frac{84}{13}$ days
Solution : One day's work of S = $\frac{1}{14}$ One day's work of T = $\frac{1}{21}$ One day's work of U = $\frac{1}{28}$ One day's work of S + T + U = $\frac{1}{14}+\frac{1}{21}+\frac{1}{28}$ = $\frac{6+4+3}{84}$ = $\frac{13}{84}$ So, the work will be completed in $(1÷\frac{13}{84})=\frac{84}{13}$
