Donkeys and horses can be breed to make mules and hinnys.

A hinny is a domestic equine hybrid that is the offspring of a male horse, a stallion, and a female donkey, a jenny. It is the reciprocal cross to the more common mule, which is the product of a male donkey, a jack, and a female horse, a mare.

Let the sum be Rs.x. Then, 

 x1+101002-x=1155

⇒x11102-1=1155

=> x =5500

sum = Rs. 5500.

So, S.I = Rs. 5500×5×4100 = 1100

From above diagram
AC represents the hill and DE represents the tower

Given that AC = 100 m

angleXAD = angleADB = 30° (∵ AX || BD )
angleXAE = angleAEC = 60° (∵ AX || CE)

Let DE = h

Then, BC = DE = h, AB = (100-h) (∵ AC=100 and BC = h), BD = CE

tan 60°=AC/CE => √3 = 100/CE =>CE = 100/√3 ----- (1)

tan 30° = AB/BD => 1/√3 = 100−h/BD => BD = 100−h(√3)
∵ BD = CE and Substitute the value of CE from equation 1
100/√3 = 100−h(√3) => h = 66.66 mts

The height of the tower = 66.66 mts.

SP of first article = 1000

Profit = 20%

CP = 100100+P×SP= 5000/6 = 2500/3

SP of second article = 1000

Loss = 20%

CP = 100100-L×SP= 5000/4 = 1250

Total SP = 2000

Total CP = 25003+ 1250 = 6250/3

CP is more than SP, he makes a loss.

Loss = CP-SP = (6250/3)- 2000 = 250/3

Loss Percent =250362503×100= 4%

The edge of the new cube is = 33+43+53 = a3 => a = 6 m.

The maximum area of the triangle will come when the given sides are placed at right angles. If we take 8 as the base and 5 as the height the area = ½ x 8 x 5=20

Facilitate means assist someone in their progress or work. Here Help is the only word which is similar in meaning with facilitate. Halt and check are antonyms i.e opposite in meaning of facilitate.
