Q:

A parallelogram has sides 30m and 14m and one of its diagonals is 40m long. Then its area is

A) 136 B) 236
C) 336 D) 436
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 336

Explanation:

let ABCD be the given parallelogram 

area of parallelogram ABCD = 2 x (area of triangle ABC) 

now a = 30m, b = 14m and c = 40m

 s=1/2 x (30+14+40) = 42 

 

Area of triangle ABC = ss-as-bs-c  

 

= 4212282= 168sq m 

area of parallelogram ABCD = 2 x 168 = 336 sq m

Q:

Find the odd man out of the following number series?

720, 732, 708, 742, 696

A) 696 B) 742
C) 708 D) 732
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 742

Explanation:

The given number series is 720, 732, 708, 742, 696

 

720

720 + 12 = 732

732 - 24 = 708

708 + 36 = 744 (Not 742)

744 - 48 = 696

 

Hence, the odd man in the given number series is 742.

Q:

Find the sum of the Arithmetic Series upto 36 terms

2, 5, 8, 11,...

A) 3924 B) 1962
C) 1684 D) 1452
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 1962

Explanation:

Arithmetic Series ::

 

An Arithmetic Series is a series of numbers in which each term increases by a constant amount.

 

How to find the sum of the Arithmetic Sequence or Series for the given Series ::

 

When the series contains a large amount of numbers, its impractical to add manually. You can quickly find the sum of any arithmetic sequence by multiplying the average of the first and last term by the number of terms in the sequence.

 

That is given by Sn = n(a1 + an)2 Where n = number of terms, a1 = first term, an = last term

 

Here Last term is given by an = a1 + n-1d where d = common difference

 

Now given Arithmetic Series is 

 

2, 5, 8, 11,...

 

Here a1 = 2,  d = 3, n = 36 

 

Now, an= a1 + n - 1d a36= 2 + 36 - 13 = 105 + 2 = 107 

 

Now, Sum to 36 terms is given by

 

S36 = 36(2 + 107)2 = 36 x 1092 = 39242 = 1962

 

 

 

Therefore, Sum to 36 terms of the series 2, 5, 8, 11,... is 1962.

Q:

What is 90 days from today?

 

Hints : Today is 20th January 2017, Sunday

A) 18th April, Friday B) 20th April, Saturday
C) 21th April, Sunday D) 19th April, Saturday
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 20th April, Saturday

Explanation:

Given Today is 20th January 2017, Sunday

In january, we have 31 days

February - 28 days (Non leap year)

March - 31 days

April - 30 days

=> Remaining days => 31 - 20 = 11 in Jan

+ 28 in Feb + 31 in Mar = 11 + 28 + 31 = 70 days

More 20 days to complete 90 days => upto 20th April

 

Therefore, after 90 days from today i.e, 20th Jan 2017 is 20th Apr 2017.

 

Now, the day of the week will be 

90/7 => Remainder '6'

As the day starts with '0' on sunday 

6 => Saturday.

 

Required day is 20th April, Saturday.

Q:

Find the wrong number in the given number series?

180, 90, 60, 40, 36

A) 36 B) 40
C) 60 D) 90
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 40

Explanation:

The given number series is 180, 90, 60, 40, 36

It follows a pattern that,

180 x 1/2 = 90

90 x 2/3  = 60

60 x 3/4  = 45 (NOT 40)

45 x 4/5  = 36

 

Hence, the wrong number in the given series is 40.

Q:

An error 2% in excess is made while measuring the side of a square. The percentage of error in the calculated area of the square is:

A) 1.04 B) 2.04
C) 3.04 D) 4.04
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 4.04

Explanation:

100 cm is read as 102 cm. 

A1 = (100*100)Sq.cm 

A2 = (102*102)Sq.cm

(A2 - A1) = 1022-1002 = (102 + 100) x (102 - 100) = 404 sq.cm.
