Question : Comprehension:
Read the following passage and answer the question.

In the years leading up to the Russian Revolution of 1917, the country had a succession of wars. These were the Crimean War, the Russo-Turkish War, the Russo-Japanese War, and World War I. All of these required a lot from the state, including tax dollars and manpower. Russia suffered defeats in all, except against Turkey. This series of wars caused great discontent among the people and caused suffering in the country's economy and government.

Along with these wars, there were three major parties that contributed to the cause of the revolution. First, there were the peasants, who maintained the majority of the population in Russia. They were excessively poor and could barely escape famine from harvest to harvest. The population boom in Russia from 1867 to 1896 was felt most drastically by the peasants. The increase of 30 million people in less than 30 years was so great that the land for the peasants' disposal did not increase sufficiently. The government tried to help, but the war took precedence. Second, there was a rise in the industrial working class. These workers were employed in the mines, factories, and workshops of the major cities. They suffered low wages, poor housing, and many accidents. Again, the government tried to help by passing factory acts to restrict the number of hours one could work. However, their efforts were on too small a scale to have any real effect. As a result, there were many strikes and constant conflicts between the workers and the police. Lastly, the tsar of Russia was the cause of much disapproval. Tsar Nicholas II was much more interested in his family life than matters of the state. He had an obsession with retaining all his privileges and the belief that he was chosen by God to rule. Also, he didn't understand the forces of industrialization and nationalism that were growing throughout Russia. His disregard for the struggles of the people led them to lose faith in him and the longstanding tradition of autocracy. The people were not content and were ready to revolt. They just needed a good reason and a strong leader.

Height $(h)= \sqrt{(5x)^2 - (4x)^2} = 3x$
The area of an isosceles triangle $=\frac{1}{2} \times \text{b} \times

Question : Comprehension:
Read the given passage and answer the questions that follow.
The Black Drongo, also known as the King Crow, is a small Asian bird of the drongo family. Previously, it was seen as a subspecies of the African Fork-tailed Drongo but is now recognised as a full species. It is a common resident breeder in much of tropical southern Asia from southwest Iran through India and Sri Lanka to southern China and Indonesia. It is a wholly black bird with a distinctive forked tail and measures 28 cm in length.
Feeding on insects, it is commonly found in open agricultural areas and light forest areas throughout its range, perching conspicuously on a bare perch or along power or telephone lines.
The species is famous for its aggressive behaviour towards much larger birds, such as crows, and never hesitates to dive-bomb any birds of prey that invade its territory. Smaller birds often nest in the well-guarded vicinity of a nesting Black Drongo.
The Black Drongo has been introduced to some Pacific islands, where it has thrived and become abundant to the point of threatening and causing the extinction of native and endemic bird species there.
Drongos fly with strong flaps of the wing and are capable of fast manoeuvres that enable them to capture flying insects. With short legs, they sit upright on thorny bushes, bare perches or electricity wires. They may also perch on grazing animals.
The Black Drongo is found predominantly in open country and usually perches and hunts close to the ground. They are mostly aerial predators of insects but also glean from the ground or off vegetation.
They are found as summer visitors to northeastern Afghanistan and northern Pakistan but are mainly resident south from the Indus Valley up to Bangladesh and into India and Sri Lanka.
Question:
Which aspect of its nature does the bird show to larger birds that attempt to violate its space?

Option 1: Its ability to fly high.

Option 2: Its tendency to sit upright on perches.

Option 3: Its ability to catch flying insects.

Option 4: Its capacity to attack.

Team Careers360 12th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: Its capacity to attack.


Solution : The fourth option is the correct choice.

Question : Simplify: $\frac{(0.73)^3+(0.27)^3}{(0.73)^2+(0.27)^2-0.73\times 0.27}$

Option 1: 1

Option 2: 0.4087

Option 3: 0.73

Option 4: 0.27

Team Careers360 12th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 1


Solution : Since a3 + b3 = (a + b)(a2 + b2 – ab),
So, $\frac{(0.73)^3+(0.27)^3}{(0.73)^2+(0.27)^2-0.73\times 0.27}$
= $\frac{(0.73+0.27) [(0.73)^2+(0.27)^2-0.73\times 0.27]}{(0.73)^2+(0.27)^2-0.73\times 0.27}$
= 0.73 + 0.27
= 1
Hence, the correct answer is 1.
