Q:

The reflex angle between the hands of a clock at 10.25 is

A) 197 1/2	B) 167 1/2
C) 157 1/2	D) 187 1/2

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 197 1/2

Explanation:

Angle traced by hour hand in 125/12 hrs = (360/12 * 125/12) = $312 \frac{1^{0}}{2}$

Angle traced by minute hand in 25 min = (360/60 * 25) = $150^{0}$

$\therefore$ Reflex angle = $360^{0} - {(312 \frac{1}{2} - 150)}^{0} = 360^{0} - 162 \frac{1^{0}}{2} = 197 \frac{1^{0}}{2}$

A) 53800	B) 43800
C) 83800	D) 73800

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 73800

perimeter = total cost / cost per m = 10080 /20 = 504m
side of the square = 504/4 = 126m
breadth of the pavement = 3m
side of inner square = 126 - 6 = 120m
area of the pavement = (126 x126) - (120 x 120) = 246 x 6 sq m

Q:

A boat takes 19 hours for travelling downstream from point A to point B and coming back to a point C which is at midway between A and B. If the velocity of the stream is 4 kmph and the speed of the boat in still water is 14 kmph, what is the distance between A and B ?

A) 180 km	B) 160 km
C) 140 km	D) 120 km

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 180 km

Explanation:

Speed in downstream = (14 + 4) km/hr = 18 km/hr;

Speed in upstream = (14 – 4) km/hr = 10 km/hr.

Let the distance between A and B be x km. Then,

x/18 + (x/2)/10 = 19 ⇔ x/18 + x/20 = 19 ⇒ x = 180 km.
