If the height of a triangle is decreased by 40% and it?s base is increased by 40% , what will be the effect on its area?1). No change2). 16 % increase3). 8% decrease4). 16% decrease

Answer»

Solution

area of TRIANGLE = 1/2(base*height)

after DECREASING height by 40%, NEW height = 0.6H

after increasing base by 40%, new base = 1.4B

now, area of triangle = 1/2(1.4B*0.6H) = 0.84(1/2*B*H)

Area decreased by 100-84%= 16%

so the answer is option D.

The area of a rectangle is equal to the area of a square whose diagonal is $$12\sqrt{6}$$ metre. The difference between the length and the breadth of the rectangle is 6 metre. What is the perimeter of rectangle ? (in metre).1). 160 metre2). 80 metre3). 82 metre4). 84 metre

Answer»

Solution

DIAGONAL of square = $12\sqrt{6}$ m

=> Side of the square = $\FRAC{diagonal}{\sqrt{2}} = \frac{12\sqrt{6}}{\sqrt{2}} = 12\sqrt{3}$ m

=> Area of square = $(12\sqrt{3})^2 = 432 m^2$

Let length and breadth of the rectangle be $l$ and $b$

=> Area of rectangle = $lb = 432$

and $l - b = 6$

Solving above equations, we get $l = 24$ and $b = 18$

$\THEREFORE$ Perimeter of rectangle = $2 (l + b) = 2 (24 + 18)$

= 2*42 = 84 m

What will be the effect on the area of an isosceles triangle if all the sides are doubled in length ?1). Increase to four times the area of original triangle2). Increase to two times the area of original triangle3). Increased by 150%4). Increased by 200%

Answer»

Solution

If the sides are all DOUBLED, the semi PREIMETER gets doubled.

AREA = $ \sqrt {s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}$

New area = $ \sqrt {2S(2s-2a)(2s-2b)(2s-2c)}$

4 TIMES the original area.

If the length of a rectangular field is increased by 20% and the breadth is reduced by 20% the area of the rectangle will be $$192m^{2}$$. What is the area of the original rectangle ?1). $$184m^{2}$$2). $$196m^{2}$$3). $$204m^{2}$$4). $$225m^{2}$$

Answer»

Solution

Let the length be L and breadth be B. The new length and breadth is 1.2L and 0.8B.

Hence, AREA = 1.2L*.8B=192

Now L*B=200, but ORIGINAL area = L*B= 200

The respective ratio of radii of two right circular cylinders (A and B) is 4 : 5. The respective ratioof volume of cylinders A and B is 12 : 25. What is the respective ratio of the heights of cylinders A and B ?1). 2 : 32). 3 : 53). 5 : 84). 4 : 5

Answer»

Solution

Volume of a CYLINDER =$\pi r^2 H$
where r and h are the radius and height of the cylinder respectively.
The RATIO of volumes and ratio of radii of the two cylinders is given.
Ratio of square of their radii= 16 : 25
Therefore the ratio of their heights $h_1$ : $h_2$ = $12 \TIMES 25$ : $16 \times 25$
where $h_1$ and $h_2$ are the heights of two cylinders.
the ratio of their heights = 12 : 16 = 3 : 4
Option E is the correct answer

181.

The respective ratio of radii of two right circular cylinders (A and B) is 4 : 7. The respective ratio of the heights of cylinders A and B is 2 : 1. What is the respective ratio of volumes of cylinders A and B ?1). 25 : 422). 23 : 423). 32 : 494). 30 : 49

Answer»

Solution

Volume of a cylinder = $ \pi r^2 h$
where r and h are the radius and height of the cylinder respectively.
The ratio of VOLUMES of the TWO cylinders will be equal to the ratio of$r^2 h$ of both the cylinders..
For cylinder 1 $r^2 h$= $4^2 \TIMES 2 = 32$
For cylinder 2 $r^2 h$= $7^2 \times 1 = 49$
Ratio of their volumes = $\frac{32}{49}$
Option C is the correct ANSWER.

The pattern here followed is that the last word of the previous code becomes the first word for the next batch and the first and the second words shifted to the second and the third positions respectively. Again the seventh and the sixth words occupy the fourth and fifth positions respectively and then the third, the fourth and the fifth words of the previous code are WRITTEN in the same order in the pass-code for the next batch.

To summarize, if we use NUMBERS in place of the words, the arrangement will be :

Pass code for Batch I : 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

Pass code for Batch II : 8 1 2 7 6 3 4 5

Pass code for Batch III : 5 8 1 4 3 2 7 6

Pass code for Batch IV : 6 5 8 7 2 1 4 3

Pass code for Batch V : 3 6 5 4 1 8 7 2

Pass code for Batch VI : 2 3 6 7 8 5 4 1

=>Thus, we can write any required step from the GIVEN pass codes directly.

Pass code for Batch VI :and pencil by all boys used are pen=2 3 6 7 8 5 4 1

Pass code for batch I : 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

=> pen and pencil are used by all boys

Answer»

I THINK OPTION 3 is the RIGHT ANSWER

200.

Answer»

Solution

I : height = 28 & radius = 28/2 = 14

Since, both radius and height are known, we can find the volume of cylindrical tank = $\pi$ * $R^{2}$ * h$

= $\frac{22}{7} * 14*14*28 = 17248$ CU m.

Thus, I alone is sufficient.

II : height = 28

area of base = $\pi$ * $r^{2} = 616$

Volume = area of base * height $= 616*28 = 17248 m^{3}$

Thus, II alone is also sufficient.
