∴ unit 1unit=4 ∴ PQ – 4 – 4 × 4 = 16 cm.

S53. Ans.(d) Sol.

CR = QC = 5 cm ∴ BQ = 11 – 5 = 6 cm = PB AS = AP = 8 cm ∴ AB = AP + PB = 8 + 6 = 14 cm

S54. Ans.(b) Sol. 3 cos²A + 6 sin²A = 3 3 cos²A + 6 – 6 cos²A = 3 3 = 3 cos²A cos²A = 1 A = 0°

S58. Ans.(d) Sol. ( ) ( )

( ) ( )

( ) = 2 cosθ

S59. Ans.(d) Sol. 3 – 2 sin²θ – 3 cosθ = 0 3 – 2 + 2 cos²θ – 3 cosθ = 0 2 cos²θ – 3 cosθ + 1 = 0 2 cos²θ – 2 cosθ – cosθ + 1 = 0 2 cosθ (cosθ – 1) – 1 (cosθ – 1) = 0 (2 cosθ – 1) (cosθ – 1) = 0 ∴ 2 cosθ = 1 cosθ

θ = 60° {∵ 0° < θ < 90°} ∴ 2 cosecθ + tanθ = 2 cosec60° + tan60°

S62. Ans.(b) Sol.

∴ Efficiency by solving the above equations. A = 5/2, B = 7/2, C = ½ When they work combinely for 12 days then work done

∴ Remaining work = 96 – 78 = 18 ∴ Remaining work done by C days.

S63. Ans.(d) Sol. a² + b² + 2ab = 25 a³ + b³ = (a + b) (a² + b² – ab) 110 = 5 (25 – 2ab – ab) 22 = 25 – 3ab

∴ (a + b)² – 3ab = 25 – 3 = 22

S64. Ans.(a) Sol.

S65. Ans.(a) Sol. A + B = 96

A.T.Q ⇒ 96 × 58 = 56 × 2x + 40 × 3x 96 × 58 = 232x x = 24 ∴ Average of B = 24 × 3 = 72 kg

S66. Ans.(d) Sol. a + b + c = 5 a² + b² + c² = 33 (a + b + c)² = a² + b² + c² + 2 (ab + bc + ca) ab + bc + ca = – 4 a³ + b³ + c³ – 3abc = (a + b + c) (a² + b² + c² – ab – bc – ca) = 5 × (33 + 4) = 5 × 37 = 185

S74. Ans.(b) Sol.

CM² = AC² + AM² CM² = AC² + …(i)

BL² = AL² + AB² BL² = …(ii)

Add (i) + (ii)

CM² + BL² = AC² +

4(CM² + BL²) = 5 (AC² + AB²) 4(CM² + BL²) = 5BC²
