Q:

The difference between the compound interest and simple interest on a certain sum at 10% per annum for 2 years is Rs. 631. Find the sum.

A) 60100	B) 61100
C) 62100	D) 63100

Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 63100

Explanation:

Let the sum be Rs. x. Then,
C.I. = x ( 1 + ( 10 /100 ))^2 - x = 21x / 100 ,
S.I. = (( x * 10 * 2) / 100) = x / 5
(C.I) - (S.I) = ((21x / 100 ) - (x / 5 )) = x / 100
( x / 100 ) = 632 * x = 63100.
Hence, the sum is Rs.63,100.

Q:

An observer 1.6 m tall is $20 \sqrt{3}$ away from a tower. The angle of elevation from his eye to the top of the tower is 30º. The heights of the tower is:

A) 21.6 m	B) 23.2 m
C) 24.72 m	D) None of these

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 21.6 m

Explanation:

Draw BE // CD

Then, CE = AB = 1.6 m,

BE = AC =

$\frac{D E}{\tan 30} = > D E = \tan 30 x 20 \sqrt{3} = > D E = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}} x 20 \sqrt{3} = 20$

Therefore, CD = CE + DE = (1.6 + 20) m = 21.6 m.
