Question : In $\triangle$PQR, the angle bisector of $\angle$P intersects QR at M. If PQ = PR, then what is the value of $\angle$PMQ?
Option 1: 75°
Option 2: 80°
Option 3: 70°
Option 4: 90°
Correct Answer: 90°
Solution : In $\triangle$PQR, PQ = PR ⇒ $\angle$Q = $\angle$R = b PM is the angle bisector of $\angle$P. $\angle$QPM = $\angle$RPM = a Apply angle sum property in $\triangle$PQR, ⇒ $\angle$P + $\angle$Q + $\angle$R = 180° ⇒ $\angle$P + b + b = 180°
Question : A class is divided into two sections, with 20 students in one section and 30 students in the other. The pass percentages for these sections are 80% and 60%, respectively. What is the pass percentage for the entire class?
Option 1: 60%
Option 2: 68%
Option 3: 70%
Option 4: 78%
Correct Answer: 68%
Solution : The number of students who passed = 80% of 20 + 60% of 30 = $\frac{80 × 20}{100}$ + $\frac{60 × 30}{100}$ = 16 + 18 = 34 Now, the pass percentage of the entire class = $\frac{\text{Number of students passed}}{\text{Total students}}$ × 100 =

Question : Directions: Select the option figure in which the given figure is embedded. (rotation is NOT allowed)
Option 1:
Option 2:
Option 3:
Option 4:
Correct Answer:
Solution : Since the rotation is restricted. So, the embedded figure will have the same orientation as the main figure. By comparison of all the option figures, the given question figure is embedded only in the third option figure.
Hence, the third option is correct.
Question : Directions: If the 20th of March 2001 is Tuesday, then what will be the day of the week on the 23rd of April 2021?
Option 1: Friday
Option 2: Tuesday
Option 3: Monday
Option 4: Wednesday
Correct Answer: Friday
Solution : Given: The 20th of March 2001 is Tuesday.
Number of days from 21st of March 2001 to 20th of March 2021 – 365 × 20 = 7300; add 5 days for leap years (2004, 2008, 2012, 2016, and 2020) = 7300 + 5 = 7305
