Q1. Is 194 a term of sequence 3,8,13,-------- .

(a) Yes (b) No (c) Can't say

Solution.
(b) No
Tn = 194
a + (n - 1)d = 194
3 + (n - 1)5 = 194
3 + 5n - 5 = 194
5n - 2 = 194
5n = 196
n =
196 / 5

n = 39.2
n is not a natural number so 194 is not a term of the given sequence
Solution

Q2. If sinθ + sin2θ = 1, then cos2θ + cos4θ =

(a) 2 (b) 1 (c) 3 (d) 4

Solution.
sinθ = 1 - sin2θ = cos2θ

sin2θ = cos4θ

So, cos2θ + cos4θ = sinθ + sin2θ = 1
Solution

Q3. A boy contains 12 balls out of which y are white balls. If 3 more white balls are but in the bag, the probabilityof drawing a white ball will be double than earlier . find y.

(a) 4 (b) 3 (c) 2 (d) 1

Solution.
Let there are y white ball

P2 = 2P1

(y + 3)/15 = 2(y/12)

(y + 3)/15 = y/6

(y + 3)/5 = y/2

2y + 6 = 5y

6 = 5y - 2y

6 = 3y

y = 2

Solution

Q4. The side of a square is 20 cm. Find the area of circum scribed circle .

(a) 400 cm2 (b) 498 cm2 (c) 500 cm2 (d) 628 cm2

Solution.
Diameter of the circumscribed circle = Diagonal of the square



AC = 2r = a√2(a = side of square)

2r = 20√2

r = 10√2

= π r2 = 3.14 x 100 x 2

= 3.14 x 200

= 6.28 x 100

= 628 cm2
Solution

Q5. Find the value of k, if the points A(3,-4) B(8,1) and C(2,k) are collinear if 1/a + 1/b = __________

(a) 3 (b) 2 (c) 5 (d) -5

Solution.
(d) -5
Solution

Q6. P and Q are the mid - points of the sides CA and CB respectively of a triangle of ABC, right angled at C. AB = 5 cm, AC = 4 cm and BC = 3 cm. find AQ


(a) (√74)/4 (b) 2 (c) 4 (d) √14

Solution.
We know that 4AQ2 = 4AC2 + BC2
AQ2 =
4AC2 + BC2/4

AQ2 =
4 x 16 + 9/4
=
64 + 9/4
=
74/4

AQ = √
74/4
Solution

Q7. The volume of a pyramid of base area 25 m2 and height is 36 m.

(a) 250 m2 (b) 100 m2 (c) 300 m2 (d) 200 m2

Solution.
(c) 300 m2
Solution

Q8.
x / y
+ √
y / x
=
6 / 5
, find xy .

(a) 6 (b) 25 (c) 36 (d) 5

Answer.
(b) 25
Solution

Q9. Formula of perimeter of a semi-circle having radius r.

(a) πr (b) 2r (c) 2πr (d) πr + 2r

Answer.
(d) πr + 2r
Solution

Q10. Ratio of the lateral surface area of two cubes is 16:36. find the ratios of their sides ?

(a) 1:2 (b) 4:3 (c) 6:7 (d) 4:6

Answer.
(d) 4:6
Solution
