Answers & Solutions:

1) Answer (C)

Radius of the cylinder = r = $\frac{14}{2}$ = 7

Height of the cylinder = h =14

Volume = Pi x r2 x h

= $\frac{22}{7}$ x 7 x 7 x 14 = 2156

2) Answer (B)

Let the required number of rounds be x.

More radius, less rounds (Inverse Proportion)

Radius in cm ==  Round

15 == 125

25 == x

⟹ x=(15 * 125)/25 = 75 rounds

3) Answer (B)

This is a right-angled triangle with the perpendicular sides being 5 and 6. So, area = ½ * 5 * 6 = 15 sq units

4) Answer (A)

Let the width of the footpath be w.
So, area of the footpath = (30+2w)*(20+2w) – 20*30 = 216
From the options, w = 2 satisfies the equation. So, option a) is the answer.

5) Answer (C)

One of the angles of a right-angled triangle should be 90 degrees. If the angles are in the ratio 5:6:7, the angles will be 50 degrees, 60 degrees and 70 degrees. So, 5:6:7 cannot be the ratio.

6) Answer (A)

Triangle ADE is similar to triangle ABC. If the sides are in the ratio a:b, the areas will be in the ratio $a^2 : b^2$.
Here, the ratio of sides BC and DE is 2:1, so the ratio of areas of triangle ABC and triangle ADE will be 4:1.

7) Answer (D)

If the sides of a right-angled triangle are in AP, then the sides are in the ratio 3:4:5. Since the largest side is 10 cm, the lengths of the other sides are 6 cm and 8 cm. So, the area of the triangle is ½ * 6 * 8 = 24 $cm^2$

8) Answer (D)

Let the sides be 10l and 10b. So, area = 100lb.
Sides after the change = 12.5l and 7.5b
New area = 12.5l*7.5b = 93.75lb
So, percentage change in area = 6.25%

9) Answer (E)

Let the sides be 10l and 10b.
Perimeter = 20l + 20b
New sides = 12.5l and 7.5b
New perimeter = 25l+15b
Change in perimeter = 5l – 5b
Percentage change in perimeter = (5l-5b)/(20l+20b)
So, the absolute change in percentage cannot be determined.

10) Answer (A)

By Appolonius’ theorem, $AB^2$ + $BC^2$ = 2*($AD^2$ + $BD^2$)
100 + 81 = 2*($BD^2$ + 16) => BD = $\sqrt{90.5 – 16}$ = $\sqrt{74.5}$

11) Answer (B)

Let the side be s cms long. Diagonal = $ s \sqrt{2}$ and area = $s^{2}$
but area = 100. So, s = 10. So, diagonal = $ 10\sqrt {2}$

12) Answer (A)

The area of a circle is pi*r*r. Area of the square = r*r. So, the area of the circle = pi*area of square = 3.14*100 = 314 sq.m

13) Answer (C)

$S^{2} = pi * r^{2} $. So, s/r = $\sqrt \pi$

14) Answer (B)

If two sides of the right angled triangle are equal, it is a right angled isosceles triangle. So, the angles of the triangle are 45, 45 and 90.

15) Answer (B)

If the breadth is s, length is 2s and area = 2s * s = 50. So, s is 5 and 2s is 10.

16) Answer (D)

If the perimeter of the rectangle is 84, 2 * (l + b) = 84. So, breadth is 18 metres since length is 24. $ diagonal^{2} = length^{2} + breadth^{2}$. So, diagonal = 30. Area of the triangle = ½*base*height = ½* 18*30 = 270

17) Answer (A)

Circumference = 2*$\pi$*r = 100 $\pi$. So, r = 50 metres. Area = $\pi$* r * r = 2500 $\pi$

18) Answer (B)

The required ratio is 2*$\pi$*r : 4*r = $\pi$:2

19) Answer (B)

This is a symmetric right angled traingle. So, the angles will be 45, 45 and 90.

20) Answer (C)

If the breadth is x, length = 3x. Perimeter = 2*(x+3x) = 544. so, breadth = 68 and length = 204. Area = 68*204

21) Answer (B)

length of diagonal = $\sqrt{100}$*$\sqrt{2}$ = diameter. Radius = diameter/2. Area = $\pi$*$radius^{2}$

22) Answer (D)

The number of diagonals of an n-sided polygon is $^nC_2 – n$. So, $^nC_2 – n = n + 3$ => $n^2 – n = 4n + 6$. Solving this, we get n = 6.

23) Answer (A)

Ratio of area will be equal to ratio of height i.e. equal to = 1.25h/h = 5/4

24) Answer (D)

Area is directly proportional to the square of its radius; Let’s say radius is r and area is $\pi r^2$
Hence new radius is 5r/3 , and new area = $25\pi r^2/9$
Increment in area = $16\pi r^2/9$
Percentage increment will be = 177.76

25) Answer (C)

Let’s say length is l and breadth is b so area will be lb
new length will be 1.25l and breadth will be 1.10l so new area will be 1.32lb
percentage increase in area will be = 32%
