Question : If $x+\frac{1}{2 x}=3$, then evaluate $8 x^3+\frac{1}{x^2}$.

Option 1: 212

Option 2: 216

Option 3: 180

Option 4: 196

Team Careers360 15th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 180


Solution : $x+\frac{1}{2x}=3$
On multiplying 2 on both sides,
$⇒2x+\frac{1}{x}=6$
Now cubing both sides, we get,
$⇒(2x+\frac{1}{x})^{3}=6^{3}$
$⇒8x^{3}+\frac{1}{x^3}+3(4x^2)(\frac{1}{x})+3(2x)(\frac{1}{x^2})=216$
$⇒8x^{3}+\frac{1}{x^3}+12x+\frac{6}{x}=216$
$⇒8x^{3}+\frac{1}{x^3} = 216-6(2x+\frac{1}{x})$
$⇒8x^{3}+\frac{1}{x^3} = 216-6(6)$
$⇒8x^{3}+\frac{1}{x^3} = 216-36$
$⇒8x^{3}+\frac{1}{x^3} = 180$
Hence, the correct answer is 180.

Question : $\triangle PQR$ is an isosceles triangle and $PQ=PR=2a$ unit, $QR=a$ unit. Draw $PX \perp QR$, and find the length of $PX$.

Option 1: $\sqrt{5} a$

Option 2: $\frac{\sqrt{5} a}{2}$

Option 3: $\frac{\sqrt{10} a}{2}$

Option 4: $\frac{\sqrt{15} a}{2}$

Team Careers360 17th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $\frac{\sqrt{15} a}{2}$


Solution :
Given: $PQ = PR = 2a$ and $QR=a$
⇒ $PX = \sqrt{(PQ^2 - (\frac{QR}{2})^2)}$
= $\sqrt{(4a^2 - \frac{a^2}{4})}$
= $\frac{\sqrt{15}a}{2}$
Hence, the correct answer is $\frac{\sqrt{15}a}{2}$.
