Question : The given graph shows the number (in hundreds) of trees axed in four cities during the period 2016-2020.

Find the year in which the least number of trees are axed.

Option 1: 2016

Option 2: 2020

Option 3: 2019

Option 4: 2017

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 2019


Solution : In 2016, the number of trees axed = 18 + 20 + 18 + 25 = 81
In 2020, the number of trees axed = 22.5 + 21 + 20 + 17.5 = 81
In 2019, the number of trees axed = 24.4 + 19.5

Question : If $B:A = 2:3$ and $A:C = 5:7$, then what is $(A + B):(B + C)$?

Option 1: $25:26$

Option 2: $25:36$

Option 3: $25:31$

Option 4: $27:43$

Team Careers360 23rd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $25:31$


Solution : $B:A = 2:3$ -----------(1)
$A:C = 5:7$ -----------(2)
Multiply equation (1) by 5 and equation (2) by 3, we have:
$B:A = 10:15$
$A:C = 15:21$
⇒ $B:A: C = 10:15:21$
Let $B=10k,A=15k,$ and $C=21k$
So, $(A + B):(B + C) = (15k + 10k):(10k

Question : If $\operatorname{cosec} A+\cot A=3$, $0 \leq A \leq 90^{\circ}$, then find the value of cos A.

Option 1: $\frac{3}{4}$

Option 2: $\frac{2}{5}$

Option 3: $\frac{3}{5}$

Option 4: $\frac{4}{5}$

Team Careers360 23rd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $\frac{4}{5}$


Solution : Given,
$\operatorname{cosec} A+\cot A=3$
⇒ $\frac{1}{\sin A}+\frac{\cos A}{\sin A}=3$
⇒ $1+\cos A = 3\sin A$
We know,
$\sin^2A+\cos^2A=1$
⇒ $1+\cos A = 3\sqrt{1-\cos^2A}$
Squaring both sides,
⇒ $(1+\cos A)^2=9(1-\cos^2A)$
⇒ $1+\cos^2 A+2\cos A=9-9\cos^2A$
⇒ $10\cos^2A+2\cos A-8=0$
⇒ $5\cos^2A+\cos A - 4=0$
⇒ $5\cos^2A+5\cos A-4\cos A
