Question : In $\triangle ABC$, right angled at B, if $\tan A=\frac{1}{2}$, then the value of $\frac{\sin A(\cos C+\cos A)}{\cos C(\sin C-\sin A)}$ is:

Option 1: $2$

Option 2: $1$

Option 3: $3$

Option 4: $2\sqrt5$

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $3$


Solution :
$\tan A=\frac{1}{2}$
$⇒\frac{BC}{AB}=\frac{1}{2}$
Let $BC=x$ units, then $AB=2x$ units
Using Pythagoras theorem,
$⇒AC^2=AB^2+BC^2$
$⇒AC^2=x^2+(2x)^2$
$⇒AC^2=5x^2$
$⇒AC =x\sqrt5 $ units
Now, we have $\triangle ABC$ right-angled at B, with $\tan A=\frac{1}{2}$, and we've found that $BC=x$, $AB=2x$, and $AC=x\sqrt{5}$.
$⇒\sin A = \frac{BC}{AC} = \frac{x}{x\sqrt{5}} =

Question : What is the difference between a single discount of 35% on INR 700 and two successive discounts of 18% and 12% on the same amount (correct to two places of decimals)?

Option 1: INR 51.20

Option 2: INR 50.12

Option 3: INR 52.10

Option 4: INR 49.80

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: INR 50.12


Solution : First discount = 35% of 700
Successive discounts = 18% and 12%
Effective discount = $18+12-\frac{18×12}{100}= 30-2.16 = 27.84$%
Second discount = 27.84% of 700
Required difference = (35 – 27.84)% of 700
= 7.16% of 700
= 0.0716 × 700
= 50.12
Hence,

Question : In a circle, a diameter AB and a chord PQ (which is not a diameter) intersect each other at X perpendicularly. If AX : BX = 3 : 2 and the radius of the circle is 5 cm, then the length of the chord PQ is:

Option 1: $2\sqrt{13}\;\mathrm{cm}$

Option 2: $5\sqrt{3}\;\mathrm{cm}$

Option 3: $4\sqrt{6}\;\mathrm{cm}$ 

Option 4: $6\sqrt{5}\;\mathrm{cm}$

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024
