If the perimeter of a right-angled isosceles triangle is 4 2 +4m, then the Hypotenuse is  
  • A.
    8 m
  • C.
    4 m
  • B.
    6 m

Answer : [C]
Explanation :
Perimeter of a right-angled isosceles triangle = ( 2  + 1) x hypotenuse      
 
 
  4 2  + 4 = ( 2  + 1) x hypotenuse    
 
 
  hypotenuse = 4 m

If the radius of a circle is reduced by 40%, its circumference is reduced by
  • A.
    60%
  • C.
    35%
  • B.
    40%
  • D.
    45%
  • Answer & Explanation

Answer : [B]
Explanation :
Let original radius = r
Reduced radius = r - 0.4r = 0.6r
 
  Percentage reduction in circumference =
2 r - 2 (0.6) r  
2 r
 x 100 = 40%

The base of a triangular field is three times its height. If the cost of cultivating the field at Rs. 36.72 per hectare is Rs. 495.72, find its base and height.
  • A.
    950 m, 350 m
  • C.
    900 m, 300 m
  • B.
    800 m, 500 m
  • D.
    None of these

Answer : [C]
Explanation :
Area of field = 
495.72
36.72
 x 10000    
1,35,000 m2  
Let the height be x
Then, base = 3x
We have,
1
2
 x x x 3x = 1,35,000
 
  x2 = 90000 or x = 300  
 
  Height = 300 m and base = 3 x 300 = 900 m

A rectangular farm has to be fenced on one long side, one short side and the diagonal. If the cost of fencing is Rs. 10 per m, the area of farm is 1200 m2 and the short side is 30 m long, how much would the job cost?
  • A.
    Rs. 700
  • C.
    Rs. 1400
  • B.
    Rs. 1200
  • D.
    Rs. 1500
  • Answer & Explanation

Answer : [B]
Explanation :
Length of the longer side =
1200
30
 = 40 m
and the length of the diagonal = 302 + 402  = 50 m
 
  Length of the fence = 30 + 40 + 50 = 120 m
 
  The job cost = 120 x 10 = Rs. 1200
