Q:

At 3.40, the hour hand and the minute hand of a clock form an angle of:

A) 110	B) 120
C) 130	D) 140

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 130

Explanation:

Angle traced by hour hand in 12 hrs. = 360º.

Angle traced by it in $\frac{11}{3}$ hrs = ${(\frac{360}{12} \times \frac{11}{3})}^{0}$ = $110^{0}$

Angle traced by minute hand in 60 min. = $360^{0}$

Angle traced by it in 40 min = ${(\frac{360}{60} \times 40)}^{0}$ = $240^{0}$

$\therefore$ Required angle (240 - 110)º = $130^{0}$

Q:

If y/(x - z) = (y + x)/z = x/y then find z : y : x ?

A) 1:2:3	B) 3:2:4
C) 4:3:2	D) 2:3:4

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 3:2:4

Explanation:

Given, y/(x - z) = (y + x)/z = x/y
$y z = x y + x^{2} - y z - x z . . . . (1)$
Also $\frac{x}{y} = \frac{y}{x - z}$ $\Rightarrow x^{2} - x z = y^{2} . . . . (2)$
Using (1) and (2), we get yz = xy - yz + $y^{2}$
2yz = xy + $y^{2}$
2z = x + y
Only option (B) satisfies the equation.
