We know that today by the name Ashoka, to look at he was unprepossessing - a bit of a lens - breaker, as they say in Bollywood: short, fat and famously afflicted by bad skin. Yet he was a lucky man too, known in his lifetime as devanampiya, 'beloved of the gods'. He transformed what was still a nascent sect - Buddhism - into a world religion, transmitting its ethical vision across the subcontinent and the rest of Asia.

The symbol the first paragraph describes is that of
The most important idea the modern Indian state has taken from Ahoka is ____________
In the spread of Buddhism, Ashoka used _____________ force.
Identify the wrong statement a bout Ashoka.
For the following questions answer them individually
If $$2^{x+l} + 3^{Y} = 59$$ and $$2^{x + 3} + 3^{y + 1} = 209$$, then the length of the hypotenuse of the right - angle triangle having $$x$$ and y as sides is
If $$a^{x} = b^{y} = c^{z} = a^{w}$$ and $$abc = d^{3}$$ then the harmonic mean of $$x,y$$ and z is
If $$25x^{2} + 58y^{2} + 16z^{2} = 30xy + 56yz$$, then x : y : z =
If $$x : y = 3 : 7$$ and $$x + y = 80$$ then $$x + 6 : y + 4$$ =
If a and b are two non-zero unequal numbers, then
$$\frac{(a-b)(\sqrt{a} - \sqrt{b})}{(a + b)(\sqrt{a} + \sqrt{b})}$$
