The Surface tension pulls the surface of the drop equally at all points thus produces the spherical shape having the minimum surface area. This surface tension is the "skin" of a body of water that makes the molecules stick together.

Generic means related to a group of similar things rather than a particular one. It means it is not a specific thing like branded or trademarked. Hence it is a basic one.

Among the given options, Generic is most similar in meaning to Basic.

Let the number of sides be n. 

The number of diagonals is given by ⁿC₂ - n  

^{Therefore, n}C₂ - n = 44, n>0 

ⁿC₂ - n = 44

n² - 3n - 88 = 0 

n² -11n + 8n - 88 = 0  

As n>0, n will not be -8. Therefore, n=11.

To know the the measuring cylinder that can fill all the given capacities , they must be divisible by the required number.

98,182,266 all are divisible by 14
So  14 litres  is the largest cylinder that can fill all the given cylinders.

                                       (or)

The other method is take HCF of all given capacities i.e 98, 182 and 266.

The second word is a disease of the first word.

That is here Myopia is the disease of the eyes. Similarly, Pyorrhea is the disease of the teeth.

Hence, Eye : Myopia :: Teeth : Pyorrhea.

We know that I = PTR/100
=> P = 20250/4.5 = 4500
Now, new Interest at 5% = 4500x1x5/100 = 225
Now the additional amount = 225 - 202.5 = Rs. 22.5
