3. Let the number of Rs. 1, 50 paise and 25 paise coins be 3x, 4x and 5x respectively.
50 paise = Rs. 0.50
25 paise = Rs. 0.25
So, we can write,
(1 3x) + (0.50 4x) + (0.25 5x) = 125
3x + 2x + 1.25x = 125
6.25x = 125
x = 125/6.25 = 20
Hence, the number of 25 paise coins = 5 20 = 100.

5. Area of a rectangle = length breadth
2|Page
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(length + breadth)
Given, length of a room is 5 m more than its breadth.
l=b+5
Given, area of the floor = 66 m2
l b = 66
(b + 5)(b) = 66
b2 + 5b 66 = 0
(b + 11)(b 6) = 0
b = -11 and b = 6
b = 6 m and l = 11 m
Perimeter of the floor = 2(l + b) = 34 m
6. Let the money Supravat be deposited be Rs. x.
In case of simple interest, we know,
(P T r)/100 = SI
Where, P = Principal amount, T = Duration in years, i = Interest rate per year, SI = Total
simple interest
Total days from, 1st January, 2016 till 20th July, 2016 = 31 + 29 + 31 + 30 + 31 + 30 + 19
= 201 days = 201/366 years.
We can write here,
x + [x (201/366) (5/100)] = 3750
x 3650
The money he deposited with the bank was Rs. 3650.
7. Perpendiculars drawn from the center on the chord bisects them.
Given, AB and CD are two parallel chords on the same side of the center of the circle.
3|Page
AB = 24 cm, CD = 32 cm and the radius of the circle is 20 cm
From the figure,
OM and ON are perpendiculars, OC and OA are radius
CN = CD/2 = 16 cm and AM = AB/2 = 12 cm
By Pythagoras theorem:
OC2 = ON2 + NC2
ON2 = 202 162 = 144
ON = 12 cm
Similarly,
OA2 = OM2 + MA2
OM2 = 202 122 = 256
OM = 16 cm
Distance between the two chords = OM - ON
Distance between the two chord = 16 - 12 cm = 4 cm

As DC || AB,
AFE = BAF = 30 (alternate interior angles)
Now, AFB = 90 (angle in a semicircle)
In triangle AFB,
By Angle Sum Property,
ABF = 180 (90 + 30) = 60
In cyclic quadrilateral AEFB,
By the exterior angle property of a cyclic quadrilateral,
AED = ABF = 60
14. Average = sum of observations/total number of observations.
Given, average monthly income of a family of 4 earning members was Rs. 7500.
Sum total of the monthly income of 4 members = 7500 4 = Rs. 30000
Now, one of the earning member died, thereby, the average became Rs. 7200.
Sum total of the monthly income of 3 members = 7200 3 = Rs. 21600
Monthly income of the deceased person = Rs. 30000 Rs. 21600 = Rs. 8400
15. M = monthly income = Rs 2000
The money saved by the man in 4 months = 4 M 3 M = M
Therefore the money saved by the man in an year = M (12/4) = 3 M = Rs 6000
16. Distance = speed time
Let the actual speed of the man be a km/hr and the actual time taken be t hours.
Let the distance which he travels be d km.
Distance = speed time
7|Page
Given, a man walks a certain distance in certain time, if he had gone 10 km an hour
faster, he would have taken 20 hours less than the scheduled time. If he had gone 15 km
an hour slower, he would have been 45 hours longer on the road.
d=at ---- (1)
d = (a 15)(t + 45) ---- (2)
d = (a + 10)(t 20) ---- (3)
From (1) and (2)
45a 15t 675 = 0
20a 10t + 200 = 0
Solving the above two equations, we get
a = 65 km/hr and t = 150 hours
Thus, d = a t
d = 9750 km

19. Given that the 4 bells ring at 30 min, 1 h, 1 h 30 min and 1 h 45 min. If we convert the
time intervals in minutes we get the 4 bells ringing at an interval of 30 min, 60 min, 90
min and 105 min.
Now once they rang at 12:00 noon they will again ring after a time that is equal to the
L.C.M of 30, 60, 90 and 105.
L.C.M of the numbers 30, 60, 90 and 105 is 1260.
Hence, they will again ring simultaneously after 1260 minutes that is equivalent to 21
hours.
At 9:00 am they will again ring simultaneously.
20. x : y = 4 : 5
Let x and y be 4a and 5a respectively.
x2 y2 = -36
16a2 25a2 = -36
a2 = 4
a = 2
But x and y are positive.
x = 8 and y = 10
x y = -2
21. Given, vendor purchased 40 dozen bananas for Rs. 300.
Profit% = 25%
30 bananas were rotten.
Thus number of bananas he can sell = 40 12 30 = 450
Number of dozens he can sell = 450/12 = 37.5
Total selling price of 37.5 dozens = 300 + 25% of 300 = Rs. 375
Thus, selling price per dozen = 375/37.5 = Rs. 10

26. Distance = 20km
Time = 15 minutes = hr
Speed of train = Distance/Time
= 20/( ) = 80 km/h
On increasing its speed by 10 km/hr,
New speed = 90 km/hr
Distance = 20 km (given)
Time = Distance/ Speed
Time = 20/90
= 2/9th of an hour = 60 2/9
Thus, time taken will be 13 minutes and 20 seconds.

{ = = }
14 | P a g e
Where,
SE = sum of entities,
nE = number of entities,
AE = Average of entities.
Now, according to the question-
Average of 8 numbers is M-
Total of these 8 numbers = M 8 = 8M ....(1)
Average of four of these is N.
Total of these 4 numbers = N 4 = 4N ..(2)
Average of remaining four is P-
Total of these four numbers = P 4 = 4P ..(3)
From equation (1), (2) and (3) it is clear that,
8M = 4N + 4P
2M = N + P
Hence, the required result is 2M = N + P.
35. We know that:

Let the speed of bus be a.
Given, car moving at a speed of 45 km/hr overtakes a bus 150 meters ached going in the
same direction in 30 seconds.
Speed of car = 45 km/hr = 45 5/18 = 12.5 m/s
Relative speed of car w.r.t. to bus = 12.5 a

79. We have,
asin + bcos = c
We know that, sin2 + cos2 =1 so, squaring both the sides in the above given equation
we have,
(asin + bcos)2 = c2
b2cos2 + a2sin2 +2ab cossin = c2(1)
Let acos bsin = x
x2 = a2cos2 + b2sin2 -2ab cossin
x2 = a2( 1 sin2 ) + b2( 1 cos2 ) 2ab sincos
x2 = a2 a2 sin2+ b2 b2 cos2 2ab sincos

81. Total cost of petrol = (65 105) = Rs. 6825
Total cost of kerosene = (5 15) = Rs. 75
Total cost = 6825 + 75 = Rs. 6900
Total quantity of mixture = 105 + 5 = 110 liters
Hence, New price of mixture = Rs. (6900/110) = Rs. (690/11)
After adding the gain of 10%,
New selling price = Rs. [(690/11) + 10% of (690/11)] = [(690/11) + (69/11)] = Rs. 69

speed.
Since they are moving in same direction,
Speed of train relative to man = (80 5) = 75 km/hr = 75000/3600 m/s
Time taken to pass the man = 750/(750/36) = 36 seconds

99. Given,
Diameter of the cylinder = 28 cm
Radius of the cylinder = 28/2 = 14 cm
Curved Surface Area (CSA) of the cylinder = 1320 sq.cm.
The formulae to calculate the CSA and Volume of the cylinder are given as below:
CSA = 2rh --- (1)
36 | P a g e
Volume = r2h --- (2)
Where, r = radius of the cylinder; h = height of the cylinder
By substituting the values of r and CSA in equation (1), we get
1320 = 2 r h
1320 = 2 22/7 14 h
1320 7
=
2 22 14
1320 = 2 22/7 14 h
1320 7
=
2 22 14
Now, by substituting the values of h and r in equation (2), we get
Volume (V) = r2 h
V = 22/7 (14)2 15
V = 22/7 14 14 15
V = 22 2 14 15
V = 9240.
The volume of the cylinder = 9240 cm3.

1 cos2x = sin2x
Given,
cosx + cos2x = 1
cosx = 1 cos2x
cosx = sin2x
Replacing the value of sin2x as cosx in given expression:
= sin12x + 3sin10x + 3sin8x + sin6x - 1
= cos6x + 3cos5x + 3cos4x + cos3x 1
= cos6x + cos5x + 2cos5x + 2cos4x + cos4x + cos3x - 1
Taking common and rearranging the expression to simplify it,
= cos4x (cos2x + cosx) + 2cos5x + 2cos4x +cos2x (cos2x + cosx) 1
37 | P a g e
We know that cos2x + cosx = 1. Hence the expression
= cos4x + 2cos3x (cos2x + cosx) + cos2x 1
= cos4x + 2cos3x + cos2x 1
= cos4x + cos3x + cos3x + cos2x 1
= cos2x (cos2x + cosx) + cosx (cos2x + cosx) 1
= cos2x + cosx 1
