Q:

If the diagonal of a rectangle is 17cm long and its perimeter is 46 cm. Find the area of the rectangle.

A) 110 B) 120
C) 130 D) 140
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 120

Explanation:

let length = x and breadth = y then  

2(x+y) = 46         =>   x+y = 23  

x²+y² = 17² = 289  

now (x+y)² = 23² 

=> x²+y²+2xy= 529 

=> 289+ 2xy = 529

=> xy = 120  

area = xy = 120 sq.cm

Read both the statements given below and answer the question.

Q : Which train did Harish catch to go to office ?

Statements :

A. Harish missed his usual train of 4.15 p.m. A train comes in every 15 minutes.

B. Harish did not catch the 4.45 p.m. train or any train after that time.

A) If statement B alone is sufficient but statement A alone is not sufficient. B) If statement A alone is sufficient but statement B alone is not sufficient.
C) If both statement together are sufficient, but neither statement alone is sufficient. D) If statement A and B together are not sufficient.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) If statement A and B together are not sufficient.

Explanation:

From both statements we cannot conclude the train catched by Harish

Since he missed at 4.15 and train coes at 4.30, 4.45, 5.00,...

But in B given that he didn't catch the train at 4.45 and after that.

So both statements A & B together are not sufficient to answer the question.

A) 11pm B) 12pm
C) 1pm D) 2pm
