b) 1300

c) 1350

d) 1400

10) If in the year 2017, number of employees in company A and B were increased 30% and 40% respectively with respect to previous year. Then the total employees worked in the both the companies in 2017 are?

a) 4004

b) 4040

c) 4440

d) 4044

Answers :

1) Answer: a)

sin2 7 ½° + sin2 82 ½° + tan2 2° + tan2 88°

Sin 7 ½° = cos 82 ½ °

Similarly, tan2 88 = cos2

(cos 82 ½ °+ sin2 82 ½° )+ (tan2 2°. Cot22°) = 1 + 1 = 2 [∵ sin2 θ + cos2 θ = 1]

∵ [Cot22° = 1/ tan22°]

2) Answer: d)

Let AB is height of the pole = h

Let CD is the height of the hill = x + h

Let distance between the pole and hill = BD = y

CE = x

3) Answer: a)

Side of the larger cube =a

Volume of the larger cube = a3

Side of smaller cube = 5 cm

Volume of the smaller cube = 53 = 125 cm

Total surface area of larger cube = 6a2

Total surface area of smaller cubes = 6 (5)2 = 6 * 25 = 150 cm2

Sum of total surface area of smaller cubes = 150 * (a3/125)

[∵Total surface area of smaller cubes*(volume of the larger cube/ volume of the smaller cube)]

4) Answer: c)

1 – 2 sin2 θ + sin4 θ

= 12 – 2(1) (sin2θ) + sin4 θ = (1 – sin2θ)2 [∵ (a – b) = a2 + b2 – 2ab]

(1 – sin2θ)2 = (sin2 θ + cos2 θ – sin2θ) 2  [∵Sin2 θ + cos2 θ = 1  ]

= (cos2 θ)2 = cos4 θ

5) Answer: c)

Work ratio of Amar and Suman = 3 : 1

Time = 1 : 3

Amar = 1/ 15

Suman = 3 /1 5= 5 days=(3/15)*5

1/15 + 1/5 = (1+ 3) / 15

The work will complete = 15 / 4 = 3 ¾ days

6) Answer: c)

If the sum of money becomes n times in the n years at simple interest, then the rate of interest will be

R = 100 (multiply times – 1)/no of years

Rate = 100 (3 – 1)/5 = 100 *2/5 = 40%

7) Answer: b)

x-1 = 5 + 2√6.

Then,

x-1 = 3 + 2 + 2√((3)(2))

∴ x-1 = (√3)² + (√2)² + 2(√3)(√2) = (√3 + √2)²

∴ √x-1 = √3 + √2

∴ 1/(√x-1) = 1/(√3 + √2) = √3 – √2

∴ (√x-1) + (1/√x-1) = (√3 + √2) + (√3 – √2)

= 2√3

Direction (8-10) :

8) Answer: b)

Total Employees in 2015 in company A = 2000

Total Males in 2015 = 2000 * (55/100) = 20* 55

Total Employees in 2016 in company A = 1600

Total Males in 2016 = 1600 * (55/100) = 16* 55

Ratio of Males 2015 : male 2016

= 20* 55 : 16 : 55

= 5 : 4

9) Answer: c)

Sum of the workers 2012 to 2015 of company B = 1000 + 1500 + 1700 + 1200

= 5400/4 = 1350

10) Answer: b)

Number of employees in companies A in 2016 = 1600

Number of employees in companies A in 2017 = 1600(130/100) = 2080

Number of employees in companies B in 2016 = 1400

Number of employees in companies B in 2017 = 1400 (140/100) = 1960

Sum of employees in 2017 = 2080 + 1960 = 4040
