Question : If $\frac{a}{q-r}=\frac{b}{r-p}=\frac{c}{p-q}$, find the value of $(pa+qb+rc)$.

Option 1: 0

Option 2: 1

Option 3: 2

Option 4: –1

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 0


Solution : Given: $\frac{a}{q-r}=\frac{b}{r-p}=\frac{c}{p-q}$
Let $\frac{a}{q-r}=\frac{b}{r-p}=\frac{c}{p-q}=k$
$\frac{a}{q-r}=k$
Multiplying by $p$, we get:
$pa=k(pq-pr)$ -------------------(1)
Similarly, $qb=k(qr-qp)$ ------------------(2)
and $rc=k(rp-rq)$ --------------------------(3)
Adding equations (1), (2), and (3), we get,
$⇒pa+qb+rc=k(pq-pr+qr-qp+rp-rq)$
$\therefore pa+qb+rc=0$
Hence, the correct answer is 0.

Question : The HCF of three numbers 72, 108, and 2010 is:

Option 1: 18

Option 2: 6

Option 3: 12

Option 4: 5

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 6


Solution : Prime factors of 
$72 = 2\times 2\times 2\times 3\times 3$
$108 = 2\times 2\times 3\times 3\times 3$
$2010 = 2\times 3\times 5\times 67$
$\therefore$ HCF of 72, 108, and 2010 is 2$\times$3 which is equal to 6.
Hence, the correct answer is 6.

Question : If $\frac{\sin ^2 \theta}{\cos ^2 \theta-3 \cos \theta+2}=1, \theta$ lies in the first quadrant, then the value of $\frac{\tan ^2 \frac{\theta}{2}+\sin ^2 \frac{\theta}{2}}{\tan \theta+\sin \theta}$ is:

Option 1: $\frac{2 \sqrt{3}}{27}$

Option 2: $\frac{5 \sqrt{3}}{27}$

Option 3: $\frac{2 \sqrt{3}}{9}$

Option 4: $\frac{7 \sqrt{3}}{54}$

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $\frac{7 \sqrt{3}}{54}$


Solution : Given that $\frac{\sin ^2 \theta}{\cos ^2 \theta-3 \cos \theta+2}=1$,
$⇒\sin ^2 \theta = \cos ^2 \theta-3 \cos \theta+2$
$⇒\cos ^2 \theta - \sin ^2 \theta - 3 \cos \theta + 2 = 0$
Since $\cos ^2 \theta = 1 - \sin ^2 \theta$, 
$⇒1
