  • Question 1/10
    1 / -0

    A tent has been constructed which is in the form of a right circular cylinder surmounted by a right circular cone whose axis coincides with the axis of the cylinder. If the radius of the base is 50 m, the height of the cylinder is 10 m and the total height of the tent is 15 m, then what is the capacity of the tent in cubic meters?

    Solutions

    Height of the cone = Total height – Height of the cylinder = 15 – 10 = 5 cm

    Radius of the cone = Radius of the cylinder = 50 m

    Total volume of tent = Volume of cylinder + Volume of cone

    ⇒ πr2H + 1/3 × πr2h

    ⇒ π502 × 10 + 1/3 × π502 × 5

    ⇒ 502 × π × (10 + 5/3)

    ⇒ 2500 × 35/3 × π

    ⇒ 87500π/3 cm3

     

  • Question 2/10
    1 / -0

    Two rectangular sheets of sizes 2π × 4π and π × 5π are available. A hollow right circular cylinder can be formed by joining a pair of parallel sides of any sheets. What is the maximum possible volume of the cylinder that can be formed this way?

    Solutions

    When a rectangle is formed into a cylinder, the length of the rectangle becomes the circumference of base and breadth becomes the height.

    For first rectangle

    2πr = 4π

    ∴ r = 2

    h = 2π

    Volume = π r2 h

    ⇒ π × 22 × 2π = 8π2

    For second rectangle

    2πr = 5π

    ∴ r = 5/2

    h = π

    Volume = π r2 h

    ⇒ π × (5/2)2 × π = 6.25π2

    Maximum possible volume = 8π2

     

  • Question 3/10
    1 / -0

    Consider the following statements in respect of three straight lines A, B and C on a plane:

    1. If A and C are parallel and B and C are parallel, then A and B are parallel

    2. If A is perpendicular to C and B is perpendicular to C, then A and B are parallel

    3. If the acute angle between A and C is equal to the acute angle between B and C; then A and B are parallel

    Which of the above statements are correct?

    Solutions

    Since they are in a plane (Let us consider XY plane) all line is of form y = mx + c

    Let the slopes of the lines A, B and C be a, b and c respectively

    Lines are parallel if their slopes are equal and perpendicular if the product of their slopes is -1

    Statement 1:

    A and C are parallel

    ∴ a = c

    B and C are parallel

    ∴ b = c

    Comparing both the equations

    ⇒ a = b

    ∴ A and B are parallel too. Statement 1 is true

    Statement II:

    A and C are perpendicular

    ∴ ac = -1 or a = -1/c

    B and C are perpendicular

    ∴ bc = -1 or b = -1/c

    Comparing both the equations

    a = b

    ∴ A is parallel to B

    ∴ Statement II is true

    Statement III:

    Statement III need not be true because the lines A and B can be on either side of line C forming same angle but are not parallel

     

  • Question 4/10
    1 / -0

    An arc of a circle subtends an angle π at the centre. If the length of the arc is 22 cm, then what is the radius of the circle?

    (Take π = 22/7)

    Solutions

    Angle subtended by full circle at center = 2π

    Angle subtended by the given arc = π

    ∴ The arc is a semi-circle

    Arc length of a semi-circle = π r = 22

    ⇒ 22/7 × r = 22

    ∴ r = 7 cm

     

  • Question 5/10
    1 / -0

    There are 8 lines in a plane, no two of which are parallel. What is the maximum number of points at which they can intersect?

    Solutions

    Each pair can have one intersection point

    Number of pairs in 8 lines = 8C2 = 8! / (2! × 6!) = 28

     

  • Question 6/10
    1 / -0

    A closed polygon has six sides and one of its angles is 30° greater than each of the other five equal angles. What is the value of the equal angles?

    Solutions

    Let the equal angles be x and the larger angle be x + 30

    Sum of angles = 5x + x + 30 = 6x + 30

    Sum of angles of a six sides polygon = (n – 2) × 180 = (6 – 2) × 180 = 720

    ⇒ 6x + 30 = 720

    ⇒ 6x = 690

    ∴ x = 115° 

     

  • Question 7/10
    1 / -0

    Consider the following statements:

    (1) The point of intersection of the perpendicular bisectors of the sides of a triangle may lie outside the triangle.

    (2) The point of intersection of the perpendicular drawn from the vertices to the opposite side of a triangle may lie on two sides.

    Which of the above statements is/are correct?

    Solutions

    Point of intersection of the perpendicular bisector is the circumcenter of the triangle.

    It is possible for three chords to form a triangle but do not include the center when it is an obtuse angled triangle

    ∴ Statement 1 is possible

    In a right triangle the perpendicular drawn from two vertices of the hypotenuse are the sides themselves. They meet on the vertex and lie on the side

    ∴ Statement 2 is possible

    ∴ Both 1 and 2 true

     

  • Question 8/10
    1 / -0

    Frequency density of a class is computed by the ratio

    Solutions

    Frequency density is the ratio of the class frequency to the class width of the particular class.

     

  • Question 9/10
    1 / -0

    A small company pays each of its 5 category ‘C’ workers Rs. 20,000, each of its 3 category ‘B’ workers Rs. 25,000 and a category ‘A’ worker Rs. 65,000. The number of workers earning less than the mean salary is

    Solutions

    Total amount of money spent as salary = Salary for category A worker + Salary for category B workers + Salary for category C workers

    ⇒ 65000 + 3 × 25000 + 5 × 20000 = 240000

    Average salary = Total salary/Total number of workers

    ⇒ 240000/9 = 26666. 67

    All B and C category workers get salary less than mean salary

    ∴ The number of workers earning less than the mean salary = 5 + 3 = 8

     

  • Question 10/10
    1 / -0

    A man travelled 12 km at a speed of 4 km/h and further 10 km at a speed of 5 km/hr. What was his average speed?

    Solutions

    Total time taken = Time taken at a speed of 4 km/h + Time taken at a speed of 5 km/h

    ⇒ 12/4 + 10/5 = 5 hours [∵ Time = Distance/Speed]

    Average speed = Total distance/Total time

    ⇒ (12 + 10) /5 = 22/5 = 4.4 km/h
