Question : In the figure, AB = AD = 7 cm, and AC = AE, and BC = 11 cm, then find the length of ED.

Option 1: 12

Option 2: 10

Option 3: 11

Option 4: 2

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 11


Solution :
Given, AB = AD = 7 cm, and AC = AE, and BC = 11 cm
$\angle BAC = \angle DAE$ (vertically opposite angles)
In the given figure, $\frac{AB}{BC}=\frac{AD}{ED}$
So, $\triangle ABC \cong \triangle ADE$ [by Side-Angle-Side criteria]
⇒ $ED = BC = 11$ cm

Question : What is the possible value of (a + b + c) – 3, if a+ b+ c= 9 and ab + bc + ca = 8?

Option 1: 5

Option 2: 3

Option 3: 9

Option 4: 2

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 2


Solution : Given: $a^2 + b^2 + c^2 = 9$ and $ab + bc + ca = 8$
We know, $(a+b+c)^2=a^2+b^2+c^2+2(ab+bc+ca)$
⇒ $(a+b+c)^2=9+2\times 8$
⇒ $(a+b+c)^2=9+16$
⇒ $a+b+c=\sqrt{25}=5$
$\therefore$ $(a+b+c)-3 = 5-3 = 2$
Hence, the correct answer is 2.

Question : If $x^4+\frac{1}{x^4}=194$ and $x^3+\frac{1}{x^3}=?$

Option 1: 52

Option 2: 58

Option 3: 76

Option 4: 67

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 52


Solution : $x^4+\frac{1}{x^4}=194$
Adding 2 on both sides,
⇒ $x^4+\frac{1}{x^4}+2=194+2$
⇒ $(x^2+\frac{1}{x^2})^2=196$
Taking square root on both sides,
⇒ $x^2+\frac{1}{x^2}=14$
Adding 2 on both sides,
⇒ $x^2+\frac{1}{x^2}+2=14+2$
⇒ $(x+\frac{1}{x})^2=16$
Taking square root on both sides,
⇒ $x+\frac{1}{x}=4$
⇒ $(x+\frac{1}{x})^3=4^3$
⇒ $x^3+\frac{1}{x^3}+3(x+\frac{1}{x})=64$
⇒ $x^3+\frac{1}{x^3}+3×4=64$
⇒ $x^3+\frac{1}{x^3}=64-12 = 52$
