Q:

Count the number of triangles and squares in the given figure.

 A) 36 triangles, 7 Squares B) 38 triangles, 9 Squares C) 40 triangles, 7 Squares D) 42 triangles, 9 Squares

Explanation:

The figure may be labelled as shown

Triangles :

The Simplest triangles are BGM, GHM, HAM, ABM, GIN, IJN, JHN, HGN, IKO, KLO, LJO, JIO, KDP, DEP, ELP, LKP, BCD and AFE i.e 18 in number

The triangles composed of two components each are ABG, BGH, GHA, HAB, HGI, GIJ, IJH, JHG, JIK, IKL, KLJ,LJI, LKD, KDE, DEL and ELK i.e 16 in number.

The triangles composed of four components each are BHI, GJK, ILD, AGJ, HIL and JKE i.e 6 in number.

Total number of triangles in the figure = 18 + 16 + 6 =40.

Squares :

The Squares composed of two components each are MGNH, NIOJ, and OKPL i.e 3 in number

The Squares composed of four components each are BGHA, GIJH, IKJL and KDEL i.e 4 in number

Total number of squares in the figure = 3 + 4 =7

Q:

Four usual dice are thrown on the ground. The total of numbers on the top faces of these four dice is 13 as the top faces showed 4, 3, 1 and 5 respectively. What is the total of the faces touching the ground?

 A) 12 B) 13 C) 15 D) Cannot be determined

Explanation:

In a usual dice, the sum of the numbers on any two opposite faces is always 7. Thus, 1 is opposite 6, 2 is opposite 5 and 3 is opposite 4.

Consequently, when 4, 3, 1 and 5 are the numbers on the top faces, then 3, 4, 6 and 2 respectively are the numbers on the face touching the ground. The total of these numbers = 3 + 4 + 6 + 2 = 15.
