Answers & Solutions:
1) Answer (D)
Relative speed = (120 + 80) kmph (or) 200 kmph, Relative time = 9 seconds, Relative distance = (270 + x) meters
Let x be the length of other train.
We know that,
Distance = speed x time
270 + x = 200 x $\frac{5}{18}$ x 9
270 + x = 100 x 5
x = 500 – 270 (or) 230 meters.
Hence, option D is the correct answer.
2) Answer (B)
Principal sum = Rs. 10,000
Rate of interest = 10% and time period = 3 years
Amount after compound interest = $P(1+\frac{r}{100})^T$
= $10,000(1+\frac{10}{100})^3$
= $10,000\times(\frac{11}{10})^3$
= $10\times1331=Rs.$ $13,310$
=> Ans – (A)
3) Answer (A)
Let the number be $x$
According to ques,
=> $2\times(x)^2=(18)^3$
=> $(x)^2=(18)^2\times\frac{18}{2}$
=> $x=\sqrt{(18)^2\times9}$
=> $x=18\times3=54$
=> Ans – (A)
4) Answer (C)
Average salary of 27 people = Rs. 3700
=> Total salary of 27 people = $3700\times27=Rs.$ $99,900$
Let the salary of new person = Rs. $x$
According to ques,
=> $\frac{99,900+x}{28}=3750$
=> $99,900+x=3750\times28$
=> $x=1,05,000-99,900=5100$
$\therefore$ Salary of the new person = Rs. 5100
=> Ans – (C)
5) Answer (D)
$\frac{16}{x}=\frac{x}{42.25}$
==> $x^{2}=\frac{16\times4225}{100}$
==> $x=\frac{4\times65}{10}$
$\therefore x = 26$
6) Answer (C)
Let the amount distributed among P, Q and R be 5x, 9x and 17x respectively
Total shares of P and Q is 7,000 (given) i.e
$\Rightarrow$ 5x + 9x = 7,000
$\Rightarrow$ 14x = 7,000 (or) x = 500
$\therefore$ R’s share = 17(500) = 8,500
Hence, option C is the correct answer.
7) Answer (D)
Let the number be $x$
According to ques,
=> $\frac{1}{4}\times\frac{3}{5}\times(x)=42$
=> $x=42\times\frac{20}{3}$
=> $x=280$
$\therefore$ 40% of the number = $\frac{40}{100}\times280=112$
=> Ans – (D)
8) Answer (B)
To find : $10\%$ of $24.2-10\%$ of $24.02$
=> $(\frac{10}{100}\times24.2)-(\frac{10}{100}\times24.02)$
=> $2.42-2.402=0.018$
=> Ans – (B)
9) Answer (A)
Let tag price = Rs. $100x$
Discount % = 20%
=> Calculator’s selling price = Cost price for Ramesh = $100x-(\frac{20}{100}\times100x)$
= $100x-20x=Rs.$ $80x$
Profit = $\frac{10}{100}\times80x=Rs.$ $8x$
Also, selling price = $(80x+8x)=440$
=> $x=\frac{440}{88}=5$
$\therefore$ Tag price = $100\times5=Rs.$ $500$
=> Ans – (A)
10) Answer (A)
Let, the two numbers be x and y
Given, sum of two numbers (x + y) = 22 ……… (1)
Difference of two numbers (x – y) = 14 ………. (2)
By adding the above two equations we get,
2x = 36 (or) x = 18
By subtracting the above two equations we get,
2y = 8 (or) y = 4
Product of two numbers (x $\times$ y) = 18 x 4 = 72
Hence, option A is the correct answer.
11) Answer (B)
Given : $m=9$ and $n=\frac{1}{3}m$
=> $n=\frac{1}{3}\times9=3$
To find : $\sqrt{(m)^{2}-(n)^{2}}$
= $\sqrt{(9)^2-(3)^2}$
= $\sqrt{81-9}=\sqrt{72}=6\sqrt2$
=> Ans – (B)
12) Answer (B)
Let the present ages of x and y be 3a,4a respectively
After 5 years, their ages will be 3a+5 and 4a+5
$\frac{3a+5}{4a+5} = \frac{4}{5}$
==> 5(3a+5) = 4(4a+5)
==> 15a+25 = 16a+20
==> a=5
Present age of x = 3*5=15 years
Present age of y = 4*5=20 years
13) Answer (A)
14) Answer (C)
$2\frac{1}{5}x^{2}=2750$
==> $\frac{11}{5}x^{2}=2750$
==> $x^{2}= \frac{2750\times5}{11}$
==> $x^{2}= 1250$
==> $x = \sqrt{1250}=\sqrt{625\times2}$
==> $x = 25\sqrt{2}$
15) Answer (D)
$\frac{75\times75-26\times26}{101}$ = $ \frac{75^{2}-26^{2}}{101}$
==>$ \frac{(75+26)(75-26)}{101}$ ( $\because a^{2}-b^{2}=(a+b)(a-b)$)
= $\frac{101\times49}{101} = 49$
16) Answer (B)
Given that AB=BC=2a units and BC=a units
AD$\bot$BC $\Rightarrow$ ‘D’ is midpoint of BC
BD=DC=$\frac{a}{2}$
Here \triangle ABD is a right angled triangle where AB is hypotenuse
$AB^{2}$=$BD^{2}+AD^{2}$
$\Rightarrow AD^{2}$=$AB^{2}-BD^{2}$
$\Rightarrow AD$= $\sqrt{2a^{2}-\frac{a}{2}}$
= $\sqrt{4a^{2}-\frac{a^2}{4}}$
= $\sqrt{\frac{15a^{2}}{4}}$ = $\frac{\sqrt{15}a}{2}$ units
17) Answer (D)
Given : AB = 6 cm. BC = 7.5 cm. CD = 3 cm
To find : DA = ?
Solution : Tangents from the same point to a circle are equal in length.
=> $AE=AH$, $BE=BF$, $CG=CF$ and $DG=DH$
Adding above equations, we get :
=> $(AE+BE)+(CG+DG)=(BF+CF)+(AH+DH)$
=> $AB+CD=BC+DA$
=> $6+3=7.5+DA$
=> $DA=9-7.5=1.5$ cm
=> Ans – (D)
18) Answer (C)
Let the sides of the triangle ABC(right angled at B) be ‘a’,’b’,’c’ and c is hypotenuse
Given that $a\times b=$ $\frac{c^{2}}{2}$ $\Rightarrow$ $ c^{2}$=2ab
We know that $c^{2}$=$a^{2}+b^{2}$
Substituting $c^{2}$ value in above equation
2ab$=a^{2}+b^{2}$
$\Rightarrow$ $a^{2}-2ab+b^{2}=0$
$\Rightarrow$ $(a-b)^{2}=0$
$\Rightarrow a=b$
In a triangle, if two sides are equal then the opposite angles must be equal
We know that $\angle A+\angle B+\angle C=180^\circ$
Here $\angle A$=$\angle C$
$90^\circ+2\angle A$=$180^\circ$
$\therefore \angle A$=$\angle C$=$45^\circ$
19) Answer (D)
Given : $C_1$ and $C_2$ be the two concentric circles having radius $r_1=3$ cm and $r_2=5$ cm respectively.
To find : AB = ?
Solution : AB is the the tangent to the circle $C_1$, hence $\angle$ OPB = $90^\circ$
Also, the perpendicular from the centre of a circle to a chord bisects the chord.
Thus, in $\triangle$ OPB,
=> $(PB)^2=(OB)^2-(OP)^2$
=> $(PB)^2=(5)^2-(3)^2$
=> $(PB)^2=25-9=16$
=> $PB=\sqrt{16}=4$ cm
$\therefore$ AB = $2\times4=8$ cm
=> Ans – (D)
20) Answer (B)
In square ABCD, $\triangle$ BEC is an equilateral triangle
Each angle of an equilateral triangle is 60$^\circ$
$\Rightarrow$ $\angle$ OCB $= 60^\circ$
$\angle$ DBC $= \frac{90^\circ}{2} = 45^\circ$ ($\because$ BD is diagonal of ABCD)
In $\triangle$ OBC,
$\angle$ OBC+$\angle$ OCB+$\angle$ BOC $= 180^\circ$
$60^\circ+45^\circ+\angle BOC = 180^\circ$
$\therefore \angle BOC = 75^\circ$
21) Answer (A)
$\triangle$ ABC is a right angled triangle right angled at C
$\Rightarrow$ $AB^{2} = AC^2+BC^2$ ( From Pythagoras theorem )
$\Rightarrow$ $AC^2 = AB^2-BC^2$
From $\triangle ACD$, $AD^2 = AC^2+CD^2$
Substituting $AC^2 = AB^2-BC^2$ in above equation
$AD^2 = AB^2-BC^2+CD^2$
$\Rightarrow$ $AB^{2}+CD^{2}=BC^{2}+AD^{2}$

22) Answer (A)
In $\triangle$ AQC,
$\angle$ AQC $= 90^\circ$ ($\because$ Angle in a semi circle is $90^\circ$)
and in $\triangle$ APB,
$\angle$ APB $= 90^\circ$ ($\because$ Angle in a semi circle is $90^\circ$)
Comparing two triangles $\triangle$ APB and $\triangle$ AQC,
$\angle$ QAC $= \angle PAB$
$\angle$ AQC $= \angle APB$
$\therefore \triangle APB = \triangle AQC$
$\therefore$ QC // PB
Since we cannot prove that C is exactly midpoint of AB, QC $= \frac{1}{2}$PB cannot be proved
23) Answer (C)
$\triangle$ ABC is a right angled isosceles triangle right angled at B
Here $\angle A = \angle C$
$90^\circ+2\angle A = 180^\circ$
$\therefore \angle A = \angle C = 45^\circ$
Given $\angle BAD = 15^\circ$
From $\triangle$ ABC, $\angle BAC = \angle BAD+\angle DAQ$
$\Rightarrow 45^\circ = 15^\circ+\angle DAQ$
$\therefore \angle DAQ = 30^\circ$
From $\triangle DAQ, \angle AQD = 90^\circ$ and $\angle DAQ = 30^\circ$
$\angle AQD+\angle DAQ+\angle ADQ = 180^\circ$
$90^\circ+30^\circ+\angle ADQ = 180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow \angle ADQ = 60^\circ$
$From \triangle ADQ$,
sin $60^\circ = \frac{AQ}{AD}$
$\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} = \frac{b}{AD}$ ( $\because$ sin $60^\circ = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2})$
AD = $\frac{2b}{\sqrt{3}}$
In $\triangle APD, \angle APD = 90^\circ$ and $\angle PAD = 15^\circ$
$\angle APD+\angle PAD+\angle ADP = 180^\circ$
$90^\circ+15^\circ+\angle ADP = 180^\circ$
$\Rightarrow \angle ADP = 75^\circ$
From $\triangle$ APD,
sin $75^\circ = \frac{AP}{AD}$
Substituting AD = $\frac{2b}{\sqrt{3}}$ in above equation
$\Rightarrow$ sin $75^\circ = \frac{a}{(\frac{2b}{\sqrt{3}})}$
$\therefore$ sin $75^\circ = \frac{\sqrt{3}a}{2b}$
24) Answer (B)
Each angle of a regular Octagon = $\frac{1}{8}(2n-4)$right angle where n=no. of sides
= $\frac{1}{8}(2\times8-4)\times90^\circ$
= $\frac{12\times90^\circ}{8}$=$135^\circ$
$180^\circ$=$\prod$
$135^\circ$=$\frac{\prod}{180}\times135^\circ$=$\frac{3\prod}{4}$
25) Answer (C)
Let X=$ \sqrt{30+\sqrt{30}+…}$
Above equation can be written as
X=$\Rightarrow\sqrt{30+X}$
Squaring on both sides
$X^{2}$=30+X
$X^{2}$-X-30=0
$X^{2}$-6X+5X-30=0
X(X-6)+5(X-6)=0
(X-6)(X+5)=0
X=-5,6
Taking positive value
X=6
