Q:

Find the regular polygon whose interior angel is 150 more than exterior angle. note the total sum of interior and exterior angle should be 180 at one point ?

A) 12 B) 24
C) 36 D) 6
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 24

Explanation:

Sum of Interior angle is 180 .
and it is given that interior angle is 150 more than exterior,
so let exterior angle is x then interior will be x+150

now , interior + exterior =180
x+150+x=180
x=15

now , number of sides of polygon = 360 / exterior angle
n = 360 / 15
n = 24

Q:

The length of a rectangle is 10 cm more than the breadth. Find the diagonal length of rectangle if perimeter is 44 cm ?

A) 12.50 cm B) 14.21 cm
C) 15.98 cm D) 17.08 cm
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 17.08 cm

Explanation:

Let the length of the rectangle = L cm

 

Then the breadth of the rectangle = (L - 10) cm

 

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(L + B) cm

 

=> 44 = 2(L + L - 10)

 

=> 44 = 4L - 20

 

=> 4L = 64

 

=> L = 16 cm

 

=> B = L - 10 = 6 cm

 

Diagonal = L2+B2 = 162+62 = 17.08 cm

Q:

On simple interest an amount becomes Rs. 812 in two years and Rs. 924 in four years. What is the rate of interest on that amount?

A) 7.2% B) 8%
C) 8.5% D) 9.3%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 8%

Explanation:

We know, 

S.I = PTR/100 where P = principal amount, T = time, R = rate of interest

Here in the given data,

Interest for two years S.I = 924 - 812 = Rs. 112

Now, Principal amount P = 812 - 112 = Rs. 700 

Now,

R = S.I x 100/PT

R = 112 x 100/700 x 2

R = 11200/1400

R = 8%

 

Hence, the rate of interest R = 8%.
