Question : The ratio of the length of each equal side and the third side of an isosceles triangle is 3 : 5. If the area of the triangle is $30 \sqrt{11}$ cm2, then the length of the third side (in cm) is:

Option 1: $10\sqrt{6}$

Option 2: $5\sqrt{6}$

Option 3: $13\sqrt{6}$

Option 4: $11\sqrt{6}$

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $10\sqrt{6}$


Solution : Let the equal sides be $3x$ cm and the third side be $5x$ cm.
By heron's formula, Area of triangle = $\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}$
Where, $s=\frac{a+b+c}{2}$
Here, $s=\frac{3x+3x+5x}{2}$
⇒ $s=\frac{11x}2$
So, $\sqrt{\frac{11x}2(\frac{11x}2-3x)(\frac{11x}2-3x)(\frac{11x}2-5x)} = 30\sqrt{11}$
⇒ $\sqrt{\frac{11x}2(\frac{5x}2)(\frac{5x}2)(\frac{1x}2)} = 30\sqrt{11}$
⇒ $\frac{5}{4}\sqrt{11}x^2 = 30\sqrt{11}$
⇒ $x^2 = 24$

Question : The sum of twice a number and thrice its reciprocal is $\frac{25}{2}$. What is the number?

Option 1: 7

Option 2: 6

Option 3: 5

Option 4: 4

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 6


Solution : Given: The sum of a twice a number and thrice its reciprocal is $\frac{25}{2}$.
Let the number be $x$.
According to the question,
$2x+\frac{3}{x}=\frac{25}{2}$
$\Rightarrow 4x^2+6=25x$
$\Rightarrow 4x^2-25x+6=0$
$\Rightarrow 4x^2-24x-x+6=0$
$\Rightarrow (4x-1)(x-6)=0$
$\Rightarrow (4x-1)=0$ or $(x-6)=0$
$\Rightarrow x=6$ or $\frac{1}{4}$
After checking the options, we

Question : What is the value of $\left(27 x^3-58 x^2 y+31 x y^2-8 y^3\right)$, when $x=-5$ and $y=-7?$

Option 1: 1924

Option 2: – 1924

Option 3: – 1926

Option 4: 1926

Team Careers360 15th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 1924


Solution : Given:
$x=-5$ and $y=-7$
$\left(27 x^3-58 x^2 y+31 x y^2-8 y^3\right)$
$= (3x)^3-3×(3x)^2×2y+3×3x×(2y)^2-(2y)^3-4x^2y-5xy^2$
$= (3x-2y)^3-xy(4x+5y)$
$= (3×(-5)-2×(-7))^3-(-5×(-7))(4×(-5)+5×(-7))$
$=-1-35(-20-35)$
$= -1-35(-55)$
$= -1+1925$
$= 1924$
Hence, the correct answer is 1924.
