Questions and Answers

Q 1 - The edge of a story of a room is 18m. What is the region of four dividers of the room, if its stature is 3m?

A - 21m2

B - 42m2

C - 54m2

D - 108m2

Answer : C

Explanation

Perimeter= 2 (L+b)=18 and height =3m
Area of 4 walls = 2(l+b)*h= (18*3) = 54 sq.m

Q 2 - The region of a rectangle is 12sq. mtr. Also, its length is 3 times that of its expansiveness. What is the edge of the rectangle?

A - 14 m

B - 18 m

C - 24 m

D - none of these

Answer : D

Explanation

Let the breadth be x mtr. then its length = 3x
∴ 3x*x= 12 ⇒ x2= 4 ⇒x=2
∴ L= 6m, b=2m ⇒perimeter = 2(6+2) m = 16m

Q 3 - If the proportion of the ranges of two squares, one having twofold it's corner to corner then the other is:

A - 2:1

B - 3:1

C - 3:2

D - 4:1

Answer : D

Explanation

Let the length of the diagonals be 2x and x units.
Then, their areas are 1/2 *(2x)2 and (1/2*x2)
Required ratio: (1/2*4x2): (1/2x2) = 4:1

Q 4 - Of the two square fields, the range of the one is 1 hectare, while another is more extensive by 1%. The distinction in ranges is:

A - 101m2

B - 201m2

C - 100 m2

D - 200m2

Answer : B

Explanation

Area of one Sq. field= 10000m2
Side of this field = √10000m =100m
Side of another square = 101 m
Difference of area = [(101) 2-(100) 2] m2
=(101+100)(101-100)m2 = (201*1)m2= 201m2

Q 5 - A circular wire of radius 42 cm is cut and bent in the form of a rectangle whose side are in the ratio of 6:5. The smaller side of the rectangle is:

A - 30 cm

B - 60 cm

C - 72 cm

D - 132 cm

Answer : B

Explanation

Length of the wire = circumference of the circle with r=42cm
= (2* 22/7 *42) cm = 264 cm
Let the length of the rectangle be 6x cm. then, its breadth=5x cm
∴ 2 (6x+5x) = 264 ⇒11x= 132 ⇒ x= 12.
Smaller side of the rectangle= (5*12) cm = 60 cm

Q 6 - The sides of a triangle are in the ratio 1/2: 1/3: 1/4. If the perimeter is 52cm, then the length of the smallest side is:

A - 9 cm

B - 10 cm

C - 11 cm

D - 12 cm

Answer : D

Explanation

Ratio of sides = 1/2: 1/3: 1/4 = 6:4:3
Sides are (52*6/13) cm, (52*4/13) cm, (52*3/13) cm =24 cm, 16cm, 12 cm
Length of the smaller side = 12 cm

Q 7 - What is the proportion of the zones of the circles engraved and encircled in an equilateral triangle?

A - 1:2

B - 1:3

C - 1:4

D - 1:9

Answer : C

Explanation

Let the radius of the in circle be r.
Then, radius of the circumcircle= 2r
Required ratio = πr2/ π* 4r2 = 1/4 = 1:4

Q 8 - The length of the middle of an equilateral triangle is x. The range of the triangle is:

A - X2

B - 1/2 x2

C - (√3/2)x2

D - √3x2/3

Answer : D

Explanation

Let each side be a and height be x. then,
A2/4+ x2 = a2 ⇒ (a2-a2/4) = x2⇒   a2= 4x2/3
Area of the triangle = √ 3/4 a2 = √3/4* 4x2/3= √3x2/3

Q 9 - The territory of a rhombus is 36cm2 and the length of one of its inclining is 6 cm. The length of second slanting is:

A - 6 cm

B - 6√2 cm

C - 12 cm

D - none of these

Answer : C

Explanation

1/2 *d₁* d₂ =36 ⇒1/2*6* d₂ =36 ⇒d₂= 12cm

Q 10 - The region of a circle is 24.64m2. The circuit of the circle is:

A - 14.64m

B - 16.36m

C - 17.60m

D - 18.40m

Answer : C

Explanation

πR2=24.64
⇒R2= (24.64*7/22)=(1.12*7)=7.84⇒R=√7.84=2.8
Circumference= 2πR= (2*22/7*2.8) m =17.60 m
