What will come in place of the question mark (?) in the above number series?

A) 240 B) 245

311 - (9x9) = 230

 

230 + (8x8) = 294

 

294 - (7x7) = 245

 

245 + (6x6) = 281

 

281 - (5x5) = 256

 

Hence, the missing number in the given series is 245.

Q:

If the diagonal of a rectangle is 17cm long and its perimeter is 46 cm. Find the area of the rectangle.

A) 110 B) 120
C) 130 D) 140
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 120

Explanation:

let length = x and breadth = y then  

2(x+y) = 46         =>   x+y = 23  

x²+y² = 17² = 289  

now (x+y)² = 23² 

=> x²+y²+2xy= 529 

=> 289+ 2xy = 529

=> xy = 120  

area = xy = 120 sq.cm
