Answers:
Directions (1-2):
We have:
- Box S wrapped with White paper is kept second from bottom.
- Only two boxes are kept between box Q and one wrapped with White paper, that means box Q is kept third from top.
- Box V, which is neither kept adjacent to box Q nor one wrapped with Blue paper, is kept adjacent to one wrapped with Red paper, that means box V is kept at top.
- Box wrapped with Green paper is neither kept adjacent to box Q nor box S.
- Only two boxes are kept between box wrapped with Blue paper and box wrapped with Green paper, that means box V is wrapped with Green paper.
- Only three boxes are kept between one wrapped with Yellow paper and box U, which is kept at a gap of one box from one wrapped with Black paper, that means box Q is wrapped with Yellow paper.
- Only two boxes are kept between one wrapped with Brown paper and box P, that means box P is wrapped with Blue paper.
Based on above given information we have:
1) Answer: A
Clearly, box Q is wrapped with Yellow paper.
Hence, option A is correct choice.
2) Answer: E
Clearly, exact position of box T is not known.
Hence, option E is correct choice.
Directions (3-5):
3) Answer: B
Clearly, increase in tax on properties may be one of the reason of increase in service charge by service providers.
Hence, option B is correct choice.
4) Answer: A
Clearly, statement I is the cause and statement II is effect.
Hence, option A is correct choice.
5) Answer: D
Clearly, both statement I and statement II are effect of some independent cause.
Hence, option D is correct choice.
Directions (6-10):
Answer: C
We have:
P^Q#R; U^T%S; S@R
After combining above statements we have:
Clearly, U is south-east of P.
Hence, option C is correct choice.
7) Answer: A
We have:
A#B^C; E#F@G; E@D%C; H%G
After combining above statements we have:
Clearly, shortest distance between C to H is 6m.
Hence, option A is correct choice.
8) Answer: D
We have:
B^A#C; F#G^H; D^E; C@#D; F@E
After combining above statements we have:
Clearly, A is north-west of H.
Hence, option D is correct choice.
9) Answer: C
We have:
B^A#C; F#G^H; D^E; C@#D; F@E
After combining above statements we have:
Since, B is west of E.
Thus, CD = 2√2 and CE = 2m
Area of ABCEF = area (ABEF) + area (CDE)
Thus, area (ABEF) = (2 x 4) = 8m
Area (CDE) = ½ x 2 x 2 = 2m
Thus, required area = (8 + 2) = 10m2
Hence, option C is correct choice.
10) Answer: E
We have:
A^B#C; E#F^G; E@%D^C
After combining above statements we have:
Since, exact length of DE is not known and there is no direct relation between CE is known.
Thus, we can’t say exact direction of E with respect to B.
Hence, option E is correct choice.
