Question : Directions: If P denotes ×, Q denotes ÷, R denotes +, and S denotes –, then what will come into place of ? in the following equation? $\sqrt{256}$ P 3 S 66 Q 11 P 5 R 43 = ?
Option 1: 72
Option 2: 58
Option 3: 61
Option 4: 69
Correct Answer: 61
Solution : Given: P denotes ×, Q denotes ÷, R denotes +, and S denotes – $\sqrt{256}$ P 3 S 66 Q 11 P 5 R 43 = ?
After replacing the letters with given symbols, the equation becomes – = $\sqrt{256}$ × 3 – 66 ÷

Question : Directions: A word is represented by only one set of numbers as given in any one of the alternatives. The sets of numbers given in the alternatives are represented by two classes of alphabets as in the two matrices given below. The columns and rows of Matrix (I) are numbered from 0 to 4 and that of Matrix (II) are numbered from 5 to 9. A letter from these matrices can be represented first by its row and next by its column, e.g. C can be represented by 55, 69, etc., and D can be represented by 59, 68, etc. Similarly, you have to identify the set for the word CHILD.
Option 1: 55, 13, 42, 79, 68
Option 2: 96, 22, 97, 24, 13
Option 3: 96, 13, 42, 79, 13
Option 4: 55, 22, 97, 24, 68
Correct Answer: 55, 13, 42, 79, 68
Solution : Given: CHILD
Number representations of each letter – C→55, 69, 78, 87, 96 H→04, 13, 22, 31, 40 I→01, 10, 24, 33, 42 L→56, 65, 79, 88, 97 D→59, 68, 77, 86, 95
Let's check the options – First option:
Question : The greatest among the following numbers $(3)^{\frac{1}{3}}, (2)^{\frac{1}{2}}, 1, (6)^{\frac{1}{6}}$ is:
Option 1: $(2)^{\frac{1}{2}}$
Option 2: 1
Option 3: $(6)^{\frac{1}{6}}$
Option 4: $(3)^{\frac{1}{3}}$
Correct Answer: $(3)^{\frac{1}{3}}$
Solution : To find the greatest number, we have to find the LCM of the denominators of the power. Given numbers are = $(3)^{\frac{1}{3}},(2)^{\frac{1}{2}}, 1, (6)^{\frac{1}{6}}$ The LCM of 3, 2, 1 and 6 = 6 Raised the power 6 to each of the numbers. $⇒ [(3)^{\frac{1}{3}}]^6
Question : If $x=\frac{2 \sin \theta}{(1+\cos \theta+\sin \theta)}$, then the value of $\frac{1-\cos \theta+\sin \theta}{(1+\sin \theta)}$ is:
Option 1: $\frac{x}{(1+x)}$
Option 2: $x$
Option 3: $\frac{1}{x}$
Option 4: $\frac{(1+x)}{x}$
Correct Answer: $x$
Solution : Given expression, $x=\frac{2 \sin \theta}{(1+\cos \theta+\sin \theta)}$ Multiply and divide by $1-\cos \theta+\sin \theta$, ⇒ $x=\frac{2 \sin \theta}{(1+\cos \theta+\sin \theta)}\times\frac{1-\cos \theta+\sin \theta}{1-\cos \theta+\sin \theta}$ ⇒ $x=\frac{2\sin\theta(1-\cos \theta+\sin \theta)}{(1+\cos \theta+\sin \theta)({1-\cos \theta+\sin \theta})}$ ⇒ $x=\frac{2\sin\theta(1-\cos \theta+\sin \theta)}{(1+\sin\theta)^2-(\cos^2\theta)}$ ⇒ $x=\frac{2\sin\theta(1-\cos \theta+\sin \theta)}{(1+\sin\theta)^2-(1-\sin^2\theta)}$ [As $\cos^2\theta+\sin^2\theta=1$] ⇒ $x=\frac{2\sin\theta(1-\cos \theta+\sin
