Q:

Consider the following statements:

1) An isosceles trapezium is always cyclic.

2) Any cyclic parallelogram is a rectangle.

Which of the above statements is/are correct?

A) 1 only B) 2 only
C) Both 1 and 2 D) Neither 1 nor 2
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Both 1 and 2

Explanation:

Since it is an isosceles trapezium

So angle C = angle D = x

let A = 180 –D = 180 –x (since AB is parallel to CD)

B = 180-x

A+C = 180 –x + x = 180 degrees (Property of cyclic quadrilateral)

ABCD is cyclic parallelogram with AB // CD and AD // BC

Considering angles A = C = y (Property of parallelogram) and B=D = x Also since it is cyclic A+C = B+D = 180 degrees

So x=y=90 degrees And also opposite sides are equal being a parallelogram

Thus ABCD is a rectangle

Q:

A 12 m long wire is cut into two pieces, one of which is bent into a circle and the other into a square enclosing the circle. What is the radius of the circle?

A) 12/π+4 B) 6/π+4
C) 3/π+4 D) 6/π+2√2
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 6/π+4

Explanation:
As it is clear that 2r = a where a is the side of the square and
R is the radius of circle
It is given that 2πr + 4a = 12
a = 12/(π+4)

Q:

If (4a +7b) (4c-7d) = (4a -7b) (4c +7d, then which one of the following is correct ?

A) a/b = c/d B) a/d = c/b
C) a/b = d/c D) none
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) a/b = c/d

Explanation:

(4a+7b)(4c-7d) = (4a-7b)(4c+7d)

(4a+7b)/(4a-7b) = (4c+7d)/(4c-7d)

Using componendo and dividendo

(4a+7b)+(4a-7b) / (4a+7b)-(4a-7b)

= (4c+7d)+(4c-7d) / (4c+7d)-(4c-7d)

Or 8a/14b = 8c/14d

Or a/b = c/d

Q:

If ab+c=bc+a=Cb+athen which one of the following statements is correct?

A) Each fraction is equal to 1 or -1 B) Each fraction is equal to 1/2 or 1
C) Each fraction is equal to 1/2 or -1 D) Each fraction is equal to 1.2 only
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Each fraction is equal to 1/2 or -1

Explanation:

a/(b+c) = b/(c+a) = c/(a+b)

Taking reciprocal and adding 1 to each ratio we get;

(b+c)/a + 1 = b/(c+a) + 1 = c/(a+b) + 1

Or (a+b+c)/a = (a+b+c)/b = (a+b+c)/c

So this can only be equal when a=b=c or a+b+c = 0

When a=b=c we get

a/(b+c)= ½When a+b+c = 0 we get

b+c = -a

So a/(b+c) = -1

So the ratios are ½ or -1

Q:

A race has three parts. The speed and time required to complete the individual parts for a runner is displayed on the following chart:
                       

                         Part I     Part II       Part III

Speed (kmph)       9            8              7.5

Time (minutes)     50          80             100

What is the average speed of this runner?

A) 8.17 kmph B) 8.00 kmph
C) 7.80 kmph D) 7.77 kmph
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 8.00 kmph

Explanation:

Avg speed = Tot dist/Tot time = (45+64+75)/23 = 184/23

= 8 kmph

Q:

A cube is inscribed in a sphere. A right circular cylinder is within the cube touching all the vertical faces. A right circular once is inside the cylinder. Their heights are same and the diameter of the cone is equal to that of the cylinder.

Consider the following statements:

1) The surface area of the sphere is √5 Times the curved surface area of the cone.

2) The surface area of the cube is equal to the curved surface area of the cylinder. Which of the above statements is/are correct?

 

A) 1 only B) 2 only
C) Both 1 and 2  D) Neither 1 nor 2
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) Neither 1 nor 2

Explanation:
The top view of the given assembly will look like the figure above
Outermost is the sphere. Inside that there is a cube and within that there is a cone and cylinder with same radius.
Here side of cube = a
Diameter of Sphere = body diagnol = √3 a
Radius of sphere = √3 a/2 =r1
Height of Cylinder = Height of cone = side of cube = a =h
Radius of cylinder = Radius of cone = side of cube/2 = a/2 =r2(as shown in the figure)
 
Thus neither 1 nor 2 are true
