Question : What would you call the area under the curve of a velocity-time graph included between itself and two-time ordinates?
Option 1: Velocity
Option 2: Displacement
Option 3: Acceleration
Option 4: Speed
Correct Answer: Displacement
Solution : The correct option is Displacement.
The area under the curve of a velocity-time graph, between the curve and two specific time axes, represents the displacement of an object during that time interval. This is based on the fact that the area under the velocity-time curve

Question : If 30% of (B – A) = 18% of (B + A), then the ratio A : B is equal to:
Option 1: 4 : 1
Option 2: 1 : 4
Option 3: 5 : 4
Option 4: 5 : 9
Correct Answer: 1 : 4
Solution : Given: 30% × (B – A) = 18% × (B + A) ⇒ $\frac{30}{100}$ × (B – A) = $\frac{18}{100}$ × (B + A) ⇒ 5 × (B – A) = 3 × (B + A) ⇒ 5B – 5A = 3B +
Question : The value of $(\operatorname{cosec}A+\cot A)(1 - \cos A)$ is:
Option 1: $\cos A$
Option 2: $\tan A$
Option 3: $\cot A$
Option 4: $\sin A$
Correct Answer: $\sin A$
Solution : $(\operatorname{cosec}A+\cot A)(1 - \cos A)$ $=\left(\frac{1}{\sin A} + \frac{\cos A}{\sin A}\right)(1 - \cos A)$ $=\left(\frac{1 + \cos A}{\sin A}\right)(1 - \cos A)$ $=\frac{1 - \cos^2 A}{\sin A}$ $=\frac{\sin^2 A}{\sin A}$ [We know that $1 - \cos^2 A = \sin^2 A$] $=\sin A$ Hence, the
Question : Directions: Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as the numbers of the given sets. (NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into their constituent digits. E.g. 13 – operations on 13 such as adding /subtracting /multiplying etc. to 13 can be performed. Breaking down 13 into 1 and 3 and then performing mathematical operations on 1 and 3 is not allowed.) (20, 16, 8) (10, 13, 12)
Option 1: (32, 27, 18)
Option 2: (13, 16, 13)
Option 3: (14, 18, 16)
Option 4: (19, 18, 21)
Correct Answer: (32, 27, 18)
Solution : Given: (20, 16, 8); (10, 13, 12)
Divide the sum of the first and third numbers by 2, and add 2 to the resultant, to get the second number – ⇒ (20, 16, 8)→(20 + 8) ÷ 2 + 2 = 16 ⇒
Question : The price of sugar increases by 15%. By what percentage should the consumption of sugar be decreased so that the expenditure on the purchase of sugar remains the same? [Give your answer correct to 2 decimal places.]
Option 1: 11.11%
Option 2: 12.5%
Option 3: 14.16%
Option 4: 13.04%
Correct Answer: 13.04%
Solution : Given that the price of sugar is raised by 15% Price = $\frac{\text{Expenditure}}{\text{Consumption}}$ Let the original price be 100x New price after increase in price = $100\text{x}+ 100\text{x} \times \frac{15}{100}$ = 115x As expenditure remains same. Then, $\frac{\text{New consumption}}{\text{Original consumption}} = \frac{\text{Original Price}}{\text{New price}} =
Question : If the radius of a cylinder is decreased by 16 percent, then by how much percent its height must be increased so that the volume of the cylinder remains the same.
Option 1: 32.96 percent
Option 2: 41.72 percent
Option 3: 45.28 percent
Option 4: 36.43 percent
Correct Answer: 41.72 percent
Solution : Let the initial radius be r and height be 100 and the final height be h ⇒ Final radius = r$({1 - \frac{16}{100})}$ = 0.84r Initial volume = Final volume ⇒ $\pi r^{2}$ × 100 = $\pi (0.84r)^{2}$h ⇒ h = $\frac{100}{0.7056}$ = 141.72
