Question : $\triangle \mathrm{ABC}$ and $\triangle \mathrm{DEF}$ are two triangles such that $\triangle \mathrm{ABC} \cong \triangle \mathrm{FDE}$. If AB = 5 cm, $\angle$B = 40° and $\angle$A = 80°, then which of the following options is true?

Option 1: DF = 5 cm, $\angle$E = 60°

Option 2: DE = 5 cm, $\angle$F = 60°

Option 3:  DE = 5 cm, $\angle$D = 60°

Option 4: DE = 5 cm, $\angle$E = 60°

Team Careers360 22nd Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: DF = 5 cm, $\angle$E = 60°


Solution : According to the question,
$\triangle$ABC $\cong$ $\triangle$FDE then,
∴ AB = FD, BC = DE and CA = EF
And, $\angle$A = $\angle$F = 80º, $\angle$B = $\angle$D = 40º, $\angle$C = $\angle$E 
Through the Sum of angles,
180º

Question : A, B and C started a business. A invested $33 \frac{1}{3}$% of the total capital, B invest $33 \frac{1}{3}$% of the remaining capital and C, the remaining. If the total profit, at the end of a year, was INR 20,250, then the profit of C exceeds the profit of B by:

Option 1: INR 5,200

Option 2: INR 4,500

Option 3: INR 6,750

Option 4: INR 2,700

Team Careers360 6th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: INR 4,500


Solution : Let total capital be $9x$.
Taking $33 \frac{1}{3}$% = $\frac{1}{3}$
Capital of A = $9x \times \frac{1}{3} = 3x$
Capital of B = $(9x - 3x) \times \frac{1}{3} = 2x$
Capital of C = $6x - 2x = 4x$
The profit share of A,

Question : If $\left(5 \sqrt{5} x^3-3 \sqrt{3} y^3\right) \div(\sqrt{5} x-\sqrt{3} y)=\left(A x^2+B y^2+C x y\right)$, then the value of $(3 A+B-\sqrt{15} C)$ is:

Option 1: 8

Option 2: 5

Option 3: 3

Option 4: 12

Team Careers360 19th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 3


Solution : Given: $\left(5 \sqrt{5} x^3-3 \sqrt{3} y^3\right) \div(\sqrt{5} x-\sqrt{3} y)=\left(A x^2+B y^2+C x y\right)$
⇒ $((\sqrt{5} x)^3-(\sqrt{3} y)^3) \div(\sqrt{5} x-\sqrt{3} y)=\left(A x^2+B y^2+C x y\right)$
⇒ $((\sqrt{5} x-\sqrt{3} y)((\sqrt{5} x)^2+(\sqrt{3} y)^2+(\sqrt{5} x)×(\sqrt{3} y)) \div(\sqrt{5} x-\sqrt{3} y)=\left(A x^2+B y^2+C x y\right)$
⇒ $(\sqrt{5} x)^2+(\sqrt{3} y)^2+(\sqrt{5} x)×(\sqrt{3} y)=\left(A

Question : The radius of the base of a cylinder is 14 cm and its curved surface area is 880 cm2. Its volume (in cm3) is: (Take $\pi=\frac{22}{7}$)

Option 1: 3080

Option 2: 1078

Option 3: 6160

Option 4: 9240

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 6160


Solution : Radius, $r$ = 14 cm
The curved surface area of the cylinder = 880 cm2.
$2\pi r h$ = 880
$⇒\pi r h$ = 440 ---------(i)
$\therefore$ Volume of the cylinder = $\pi r^2 h=\pi r h × r= 440 × 14= 6160$

Option 1: 21,000

Option 2: 17,500

Option 3: 25,000

Option 4: 18,000

Team Careers360 12th Jan, 2024

Let the original house tax amount as A.
According to the question,
0.12A = 2100
⇒ A = $\frac{2100}{0.12}$ = Rs. 17,500
Hence, the correct answer is 17,500.
