Question : If $a= 9.6,b= 4.44,$ and $c= 5.16$, then the value of $a^3- b^3- c^3- 3 abc$ is:

Option 1: 0

Option 2: –1

Option 3: 2

Option 4: 1

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 0


Solution : Given: $a= 9.6,b= 4.44,$ and $c= 5.16$

Here, $a-b-c=9.6-4.44-5.16=0$
So, $a^3-b^3-c^3-3abc=0$
Hence, the correct answer is 0.

Question : In a cyclic quadrilateral ABCD, the side AB is extended to a point X. If $\angle XBC=82°$ and $\angle ADB=47°$, then the value of $\angle BDC$ is:

Option 1: 40°

Option 2: 35°

Team Careers360 27th Jan, 2024

Solution :
Given: In a cyclic quadrilateral ABCD, $\angle XBC=82°$ and $\angle ADB=47°$.
A cyclic quadrilateral's exterior angle is equal to its opposite interior angle.
So, $\angle XBC= \angle ADC=82°$.
Also, $\angle ADB=47°$
⇒ $\angle BDC=82°-47°$
⇒ $\angle BDC=35°$
Hence, the correct answer is 35°.
