Question : PT is a tangent at the point R on a circle with centre O. SQ is a diameter, which when produced meets the tangent PT at P. If $\angle$SPT = 32$^\circ$, then what will be the measure of $\angle$QRP?

Option 1: $58^\circ$

Option 2: $30^\circ$

Option 3: $29^\circ$

Option 4: $32^\circ$

Team Careers360 18th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $29^\circ$


Solution :
Given, $\angle SPT = 32^\circ$
$OR$ is perpendicular to $PT$, so $\angle ORP = 90^\circ$
Let $\angle QRP = \theta$
As we know, the sum of two interior opposite angles of a triangle is equal to its exterior angle.
So, $\angle OQR = 32^\circ +

Question : In a test consisting of 120 questions, Anuradha answered 65% of the first 60 questions correctly. What percentage of the remaining questions does she need to answer correctly to score 75% in the test?

Option 1: 80

Option 2: 85

Option 3: 84

Option 4: 90

Team Careers360 25th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 85


Solution : Let the remaining correct questions be $x$.
According to the question,
$60 \times \frac{65}{100} + x = 120 \times \frac{75}{100}$
⇒ $39 + x = 90$
⇒ $x = 90 - 39= 51$
So, the required percentage = $\frac{51}{60} \times 100$ = 85%
Hence, the

Question : Find the area of a triangle whose length of two sides are 4 cm and 5 cm and the angle between them is 45°.

Option 1: $4 \sqrt{2} \mathrm{~cm}^2$

Option 2: $7 \sqrt{2} \mathrm{~cm}^2$

Option 3: $5 \sqrt{2} \mathrm{~cm}^2$

Option 4: $6 \sqrt{2} \mathrm{~cm}^2$

Team Careers360 17th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $5 \sqrt{2} \mathrm{~cm}^2$


Solution : Given: 1st side = 4 cm
2nd side = 5 cm
Angle between them = $45^\circ$
We know that,
Area of triangle = $\frac{1}{2}\times\text{1st side × 2nd side}\times\sin\theta$
= $\frac{1}{2}\times4\times5\times\sin45^\circ$
= $10\times\frac{1}{\sqrt2}$
= $5\sqrt2$
Hence, the correct answer is $5\sqrt2\ cm^2$.
