1)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(C)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let edge of cube be $2a$ cm and thus diameter of sphere = $2a$ cm<\/p>\n

=> Radius of sphere = $\\frac{2a}{2}=a$ cm<\/p>\n

Volume of cube = $(2a)^3=8a^3$ $cm^3$ ———–(i)<\/p>\n

Volume of sphere = $\\frac{4}{3}\\pi r^3$<\/p>\n

= $\\frac{4}{3} \\pi\u00a0\\times(a)^3=\\frac{4a^3\\pi}{3}$ $cm^3$ ———–(ii)<\/p>\n

Dividing equation (i) by (ii), we get\u00a0:<\/p>\n

=> Required ratio = $\\frac{8a^3}{\\frac{4a^3\\pi}{3}}$<\/p>\n

= $\\frac{8\\times3}{4\\pi}=\\frac{6}{\\pi}$<\/p>\n

$\\therefore$ Ratio of the volume of a cube to that of a sphere which will fit inside the cube\u00a0= $6:\\pi$<\/p>\n

=> Ans – (C)<\/p>\n

2)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(D)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let side of the two cubes be $a$ and $b$ units respectively<\/p>\n

Ratio of volumes = $\\frac{a^3}{b^3}=\\frac{11}{13}$<\/p>\n

=> $\\frac{a}{b}=(\\sqrt[3]{\\frac{11}{13}})$<\/p>\n

=> $\\frac{a}{b}=(11)^{\\frac{1}{3}}:(13)^{\\frac{1}{3}}$<\/p>\n

=> Ans – (D)<\/p>\n

3)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(D)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Le the three positive consecutive natural numbers be $(x-1),(x),(x+1)$<\/p>\n

According to ques,<\/p>\n

=> $[(x-1)+(x)+(x+1)]^2-[(x-1)^2+(x)^2+(x+1)^2]=292$<\/p>\n

=> $(3x)^2-[(x^2-2x+1)+(x^2)+(x^2+2x+1)]=292$<\/p>\n

=> $9x^2-3x^2-2=292$<\/p>\n

=> $6x^2=292+2=294$<\/p>\n

=> $x^2=\\frac{294}{6}=49$<\/p>\n

=> $x=\\sqrt{49}=7$<\/p>\n

$\\therefore$ Largest of the three numbers = $7+1=8$<\/p>\n

=> Ans – (D)<\/p>\n

Given\u00a0: $C_1$ and $C_2$ be the two concentric circles having radius $r_1=13$ cm and $r_2=12$ cm respectively.<\/p>\n

To find\u00a0: AB = ?<\/p>\n

Solution :\u00a0AB is the the tangent to the circle $C_1$, hence $\\angle$ OPB = $90^\\circ$<\/p>\n

Also,\u00a0the perpendicular\u00a0from the centre of a circle to a chord bisects the chord.<\/p>\n

Thus, in $\\triangle$ OPB,<\/p>\n

=> $(PB)^2=(OB)^2-(OP)^2$<\/p>\n

=> $(PB)^2=(13)^2-(12)^2$<\/p>\n

=> $(PB)^2=169-144=25$<\/p>\n

=> $PB=\\sqrt{25}=5$ cm<\/p>\n

$\\therefore$ AB = $2\\times5=10$ cm<\/p>\n

=> Ans – (C)<\/p>\n

5)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(B)<\/strong><\/p>\n

6)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(B)<\/strong><\/p>\n

.<\/p>\n

PQ is perpendicular bisector of OA. Also, OP = OQ (radii)<\/p>\n

Hence, OPAQ is a rhombus. ————–(i)<\/p>\n

Also, $2\\angle PAQ=$ reflex $\\angle POQ$ \u00a0 \u00a0 [The angle subtended at the centre by an arc is twice to that at the circumference]<\/p>\n

=> $2\\angle\u00a0PAQ=360^\\circ-\\angle POQ$<\/p>\n

=>\u00a0$2\\angle\u00a0PAQ+\\angle POQ=360^\\circ$<\/p>\n

From (i), we have $\\angle\u00a0PAQ=\\angle\u00a0POQ$<\/p>\n

=> $3\\angle\u00a0POQ=360^\\circ$<\/p>\n

=> $\\angle POQ=120^\\circ=\\frac{2\\pi}{3}$<\/p>\n

We know that, $r=\\frac{l}{\\theta}$<\/p>\n

=> $r=\\frac{\\frac{2\\pi}{3}}{\\frac{2\\pi}{3}}=1$ unit<\/p>\n

In $\\triangle$ POB,<\/p>\n

=> $sin(\\angle POB)=\\frac{PB}{OP}$<\/p>\n

=> $sin(60^\\circ)=\\frac{PB}{1}$<\/p>\n

=> $PB=\\frac{\\sqrt3}{2}$<\/p>\n

$\\therefore$ Chord PQ = $2\\times(PB)=2\\times\\frac{\\sqrt3}{2}=\\sqrt3$<\/p>\n

=> Ans – (B)<\/p>\n

7)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(C)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Given\u00a0:\u00a0$\\ \\frac{1}{x}+x=17$<\/p>\n

Squaring both sides,<\/p>\n

=> $(\\frac{1}{x}+x)^2=(17)^2$<\/p>\n

=> $x^2+\\frac{1}{x^2}+2=289$<\/p>\n

=> $x^2+\\frac{1}{x^2}=289-2=287$<\/p>\n

=> Radius of circle = $r=287$<\/p>\n

$\\therefore$ Circumference = $2\\pi r$<\/p>\n

= $2\\times\\pi\\times287=574\\pi$<\/p>\n

=> Ans – (C)<\/p>\n

8)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(B)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let radius of circle = $r$ cm<\/p>\n

=> $2\\pi r-r=111$<\/p>\n

=> $r(2\\times\\frac{22}{7}-1)=111$<\/p>\n

=> $r\\times\\frac{44-7}{7}=111$<\/p>\n

=> $r=111\\times\\frac{7}{37}=21$ cm<\/p>\n

$\\therefore$ Area of circle = $\\pi r^2$<\/p>\n

= $\\frac{22}{7}\\times(21)^2=1386$ $cm^2$<\/p>\n

Thus, $l=\\sqrt{h^2+r^2}$ , $V=\\frac{1}{3}\\pi r^2h$ and $C=\\pi rl$<\/p>\n

To find\u00a0:\u00a0$3\\pi$ $Vh^{3}-C^{2}h^{2}+9V^{2}$<\/p>\n

= $[\\pi^2 r^2h^4]-[\\pi^2r^2h^2(r^2+h^2)]+[\\pi^2r^4h^2]$<\/p>\n

= $(\\pi^2 r^2h^4)-(\\pi^2r^4h^2)-(\\pi^2r^2h^4)+(\\pi^2r^4h^2)$<\/p>\n

= $\\pi\\times(6)^2\\times56=2016\\pi$ $cm^3$<\/p>\n

Radius of hemisphere = $R=0.75$ cm<\/p>\n

First pipe can fill it in 20 minutes, => first pipe’s efficiency = $\\frac{100}{20}=5$ l\/min<\/p>\n

Similarly, second\u00a0pipe’s efficiency = $\\frac{100}{25}=4$ l\/min<\/p>\n

=> Volume of bucket filled by both in five minutes = $(5+4)\\times5=45$ litres<\/p>\n

Now,\u00a0$\\frac{1}{x}+\\frac{1}{y}+\\frac{1}{z}=\\frac{xy+yz+zx}{xyz}$<\/p>\n

=> $(xy+yz+zx)=\\frac{31}{150}\\times3750=775$<\/p>\n

$\\therefore$ $(x+y+z)^2=x^2+y^2+z^2+2(xy+yz+zx)$<\/p>\n

The pole is standing at the centre of the square, => PA = PR<\/p>\n

=> $\\angle$ APB =\u00a0$\\angle$\u00a0ARB = $45^\\circ$<\/p>\n

Let the side of the square = $x$ units<\/p>\n

=> PR (diagonal) = $\\sqrt2x$ units<\/p>\n

Hence, PB = $\\frac{x}{\\sqrt2}$ units<\/p>\n

Now, in\u00a0$\\triangle$\u00a0APB,<\/p>\n

=> $tan(\\angle APB)=\\frac{AB}{PB}$<\/p>\n

=> $tan(45^\\circ)=1=\\frac{AB}{PB}$<\/p>\n

Thus, $PA=\\sqrt{(\\frac{x}{\\sqrt2})^2+(\\frac{x}{\\sqrt2})^2}$<\/p>\n

=> $PA=\\sqrt{\\frac{x^2}{2}+\\frac{x^2}{2}}=\\sqrt{x^2}=x$<\/p>\n

Also, using Pythagoras Theorem<\/p>\n

=> $6^2+b^2=c^2$<\/p>\n

=> $c^2-b^2=36$ ———–(ii)<\/p>\n

Solving equations (i) and (ii), we get\u00a0: $b=8$ cm and $c=10$ cm<\/p>\n

$\\therefore$ Area of triangle = $\\frac{1}{2} ab$<\/p>\n

= $\\frac{1}{2}\\times6\\times8=24$ $cm^2$<\/p>\n

=> Ans – (A)<\/p>\n

21)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(B)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ratio of square of diagonal to area of square = $2:1$<\/p>\n

Let diagonal of first square = $d_1=3$ cm and $d_2=7$ cm<\/p>\n

Thus, ratio of areas = $\\frac{A_1}{A_2}=(\\frac{d_1}{d_2})^2$<\/p>\n

= $\\frac{3^2}{7^2}=\\frac{9}{49}$<\/p>\n

=> Ans – (B)<\/p>\n

22)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(D)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let the side of square be $a=10$ cm<\/p>\n

=> Area = $A=10\\times10=100$ $cm^2$<\/p>\n

New area = $100+(\\frac{44}{100}\\times100)=144$ $cm^2$<\/p>\n

=> New side = $a’=\\sqrt{144}=12$ cm<\/p>\n

$\\therefore$ Increase in area = $\\frac{(12-10)}{10}\\times100$<\/p>\n

= $2\\times10=20\\%$<\/p>\n

=> Ans – (D)<\/p>\n

23)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(A)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Given\u00a0: $\\triangle XYZ \\sim \\triangle PQR$ and\u00a0XY:PQ=5:1<\/p>\n

To find\u00a0: ar($\\triangle$ XYZ) =\u00a0$x$ = ?<\/p>\n

Solution : Ratio of areas of two similar triangles is equal to the ratio of square of the corresponding sides.<\/p>\n

=> $\\frac{ar(\\triangle XYZ)}{ar(\\triangle PQR)}=(\\frac{XY}{PQ})^2$<\/p>\n

=> $\\frac{x}{5}=(\\frac{5}{1})^2$<\/p>\n

=> $\\frac{x}{5}=\\frac{25}{1}$<\/p>\n

=> $x=25\\times5=125$ $cm^2$<\/p>\n

=> Ans – (A)<\/p>\n

24)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(A)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Let side of square = $a$ cm<\/p>\n

Diagonal of square = $d=12$ cm<\/p>\n

=> $(a)^2+(a)^2=(d)^2$<\/p>\n

=> $2a^2=(12)^2=144$<\/p>\n

=> $a^2=\\frac{144}{2}=72$<\/p>\n

=> $a=\\sqrt{72}=6\\sqrt2$ cm<\/p>\n

=> Ans – (A)<\/p>\n

25)\u00a0Answer\u00a0(C)<\/strong><\/p>\n

(A) : Volume of cylinder = $\\pi r^2h$<\/p>\n

Volume of cone\u00a0= $\\frac{1}{3}\\pi r^2h$<\/p>\n

=> Volume of cone is lesser (one-third) than the volume of cylinder. Above statement is correct.<\/p>\n

\n

(B) : Let side of cube = $a=10$ cm<\/p>\n

=> Volume of cube = $(10)^3=1000$ $cm^3$<\/p>\n

New side after 10% increase = $10+(\\frac{10}{100}\\times10)=11$ cm<\/p>\n

Thus, new volume = $(11)^3=1331$ $cm^3$<\/p>\n

$\\therefore$ Increase in volume = $\\frac{(1331-1000)}{1000}\\times100=33.1\\%$<\/p>\n

Thus, above statement is correct.<\/p>\n

\n

(C) : Let radius of sphere = $r=10$ cm<\/p>\n

Surface area of sphere = $4\\pi r^2=4\\pi(10)^2=400\\pi$ $cm^2$<\/p>\n

After increasing the radius by 20%, new radius = $r’=10+(\\frac{20}{100}\\times10)=12$ cm<\/p>\n

=> New surface area = $4\\pi(12)^2=576\\pi$ $cm^2$<\/p>\n

$\\therefore$ Increase in surface area = $\\frac{(576-400)}{400}\\times100=44\\%$<\/p>\n

Thus, above statement is not correct.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

(D) :\u00a0Cutting a sphere into 2 parts does not change the total volume because the sum of volume of the two hemispheres will be equal to the volume of sphere. Hence, it is also correct.<\/p>\n

=> Ans – (C)<\/p>\n\n
