Question : PQRS is a cyclic quadrilateral. If $\angle P$ is 4 times $\angle R$, and $\angle S$ is 3 times $\angle Q$, then the average of $\angle Q$ and $\angle R$ is:
Option 1: 40.5°
Option 2: 45.7°
Option 3: 90°
Option 4: 81°
Correct Answer: 40.5°
Solution : According to the question $\angle P$ = 4 × $\angle R$ The sum of the opposite angles in a cyclic quadrilateral is 180°. So, $\angle P$ + $\angle R$ = 180° ⇒ 4$\angle R$ + $\angle R$ = 180° ⇒ $\angle R$ = 36° Now,
Question : The sum of the odd divisors of 216 is:
Option 1: 16
Option 2: 14
Option 3: 40
