Each question is followed by two statements, A and B. Choose the option based on the given statements and questions
A line graph on a graph sheet shows the revenue for each year from 1990 through 1998 by points and joins the successive points by straight line segments. The point for revenue of 1990 is labelled A, that for 1991 as B, and that for 1992 as C. What is the ratio of growth in revenue between 91-92 and 90-91?
A.The angle between AB and X-axis when measured with a protractor is 40 degrees, and the angle between CB and X-axis is 80 degrees.
B.The scale of Y-axis is 1 cm = 1000 Rs.
Growth = Change in value on Y-axis / Change in value on X-axis = Tangent of the angle made by the line with the X-axis
In statement 1, since we know both the angles, we can calculate the growth for both the periods and hence the ratio of growths.
Using statement 2 alone, we cannot determine the answer. Option a) is the correct answer.
