Q:

The top and bottom of a tower were seen to be at angles of depression 30° and 60° from the top of a hill of height 100 m. Find the height of the tower ?

A) 42.2 mts B) 33.45 mts
C) 66.6 mts D) 58.78 mts
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 66.6 mts

Explanation:

From above diagram
AC represents the hill and DE represents the tower

Given that AC = 100 m

angleXAD = angleADB = 30° (∵ AX || BD )
angleXAE = angleAEC = 60° (∵ AX || CE)

Let DE = h

Then, BC = DE = h, AB = (100-h) (∵ AC=100 and BC = h), BD = CE

tan 60°=AC/CE => √3 = 100/CE =>CE = 100/√3 ----- (1)

tan 30° = AB/BD => 1/√3 = 100−h/BD => BD = 100−h(√3)
∵ BD = CE and Substitute the value of CE from equation 1
100/√3 = 100−h(√3) => h = 66.66 mts

The height of the tower = 66.66 mts.

A girl want to read a complete book. She read 2/5 part of a book on 1st day, 34% on second day and remaining pages in next two days. On those two days she read equal number of pages. If she read 52 pages on last day, then find out total number of pages that the book contain ?

A) 400 B) 525
C) 325 D) 475
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 400

Explanation:

Let the total number of pages in the book be 'x'.

From given data,

2x/5 + 34x/100 + 52 + 52 = x

 => 40x + 34x + 10400 = 100x

 => 26x = 10400

 => x = 400.

 Hence, total pages in the book are 400.

Q:

'K' cycled from A to B at 10 kmph and returned at the rate of 9 kmph. 'L' cycled both ways at 12 kmph. In the whole journey 'L' took 10 minutes less than 'K'. Find the distance between A and B ?

A) 32.1 km B) 15.23 km
C) 3.75 km D) 32.1 m
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 3.75 km

Explanation:

Let 'd' be the distance between A and B
K -time = d/10 + d/9 = 19d/90 hours
L -time = 2d/12 = d/6 hours
We know that, 10 min = 1/6 hours
Thus, time difference between K and L is given as 10 minutes.
=> 19d/90 - d/6 = 1/6
=> (19d-15d)/90 = 1/6
=> 4d/90 = 1/6
Thus,
d= 15/4 km = 3.75 km.

hence the distance between A and B is 3.75 km.
