 There are 2 tangents of 21 inches
from point P to the circle with centre
C inclined at an angle of 60 degree.
Find the circumference of the
circle?

• W will always be 90
W 60
degree degree. WP = 21
P
c • WP=sqrt(3)/2 * CP
• 21=sqrt(3)/2 *CP
• CP =42/ (sqrt(3) =24.24

 Solution continued…
• When the angle is 60 degree, CW should
be half of CP. Thus radius should be ½*24
• Radius should be 12.12 and thus
cirmuference should be : 2* 22/7*12.12
• = 76.18 ans.

 In the next graph, you find RS =12,
radius of the circle is 70. What is
the distance of WX, when W is
intersection of RS and diameter AX.

A
• Let us assume the
r s centre to be C. C to R
W distance is = radius =
c 70. let us assume mid
point of RS to beW.
X Now WR= 6.

 solution
• WC^2= 70^2 – 6^2
• WC^2 = 4900-36 = 4864
• WC = sqrt (4864)= 69.7

• We already know that CX is 70 (radius).

Thus length of WX = 139.7

What is the probability of throwing a
number greater than 3 with an
ordinary die whose faces are
numbered from 1 to 6 ?

• There are only 3 digits greater than 3 :

4,5,6 out of 6 digits. Thus probaility is 3/6
or ½ (probability = the number of
favourable outcomes / total number of
outcomes).

 In a class of 12 students, 5 are
boys and the remaining are girls.
Find the probability that a student
selected is a girl ?

• There are 7 girls – so the probability of

selection of a girl is 7/12 answer.

 In a given race, the odds in favour of four
horses, A, B, C, D are 1: 3, 1:4, 1: 5 and 1: 6
respectively. Assuming that a dead heat is
impossible,
find the chance that one of them will win the
race.
• Probability that none of them wins :
¾ * 4/5 * 5/6 * 6/7= .428
The probability that one of them will win the
race = 1- .428 = .572 answer.

 If (x-2) is a factor of (X^2 + 3qx –
2q), what is the value of q?
• As X – 2 is a factor, so take X = 2
• (X^2 + 3qx – 2q) = 0, and taking X=2,
• Thus we will have the following equation:
• 4 + 6q – 2q = 0
• 4q = -4
• q = -1 answer.

 In order to make
(X^4 - 11X^2Y^2 + Y^4) a perfect
square, what should we add in it?

• (X^2 – Y^2)^2 = X^4 - 2X^2Y^2 + Y^4,

• Thus in order to make it perfect square,
we have to add 9x^2Y^2 to this number,
so that it becomes a perfect square.

 What is the sum of (X^2 +1) and
reciprocal of (x^2 -1)?
We have to obtain sum of :
(X^2 +1) + ( 1/ (X^2 -1)
We get ( X^4 – 1 + 1) / ( X^2 – 1)
Solving further, we get
(X^4 / (X^2 – 1))
Answer.

 WHAT IS THE NUMBER OF
NON-CONGRUENT
RECTANGLES THAT WE CAN
FIND ON A CHESS BOARD?
• There are 8 rectangles on 8 rows – which are
non- congruent. We can change the sizes of
these rectangles. By taking minimum any 2
rectangles, we can make ½(64-8) = 28 more
rectangles. Thus we have total 8 + 28 = 36 non-
congruent rectangles.

 How many words can you make
taking all the letters of ZENITH.
What will be the rank of ZENITH in
the list of these words?
• 6! = 720 words can be made. The letters from Z
will start from 600 onwards. 4! Or 24 letters start
with ZE. Thus there will be 6+6+4 letters more
before ZENITH. Thus its rank will be 616 from
the beginning.
www.afterschoool.tk AFTERSCHO☺OL's MATERIAL 22
11/02/21 FOR PGPSE PARTICIPANTS
 Example…
• ZENITH
• There are 600 words starting with either e,N,I,
T,H.
• Thus there are 120 words starting with Z
• Out of them first 24 are having ZE. In ZE, we
can have words like Zen.. Or Zet.. Or Zei.. Thus
counting the words like Zet (2 words) and the
words like ZENTHI, ZENTIH. Thus removing
them, we can 616 as the number.

11/02/21 FOR PGPSE PARTICIPANTS
 What is the number of words fored
from : AAAAA, BBBB,CCC,DD,F?
• There are 15 letters, so we have 15! Ways
of making these letters.
• There are also many similar letters.
• Thus we have 15!/(5! *4! * 3! *2! * 1!)

www.afterschoool.tk AFTERSCHO☺OL's MATERIAL 24

11/02/21 FOR PGPSE PARTICIPANTS
 What is the number of words fored
from : AAAAA, BBBB,CCC,DD,F
with all Cs taking different places?

There are 12 letters exclusing Cs. Thus Cs

can take 12 +1 = 13 places between or
before them. Thus we have 13c3 options.
Thus we have 13c3 * (12! / (5!*4!*2!))
options.

 The probability of a student A
solving a problem is 0.6 and that of
another student B solving the
problem is 0.3. What is the
probability that at least one will
solve it right?

• A will not solve = (1-.6)=.4, B will not solve = .7

• Both of them will not solve = .4 *.7 = .28
• One of them / both may solve it = 1-.28=.72

 Veeru and Jai are two friends. If
Veeru tells the truth 40% of the
time and Jai 30% of the time, the
probability that they will contradict
each other when they are narrating
the same incident is?
• V true, J false = .4*.7 = .28
• V false, J true = .6 * .3 = .18
• They will contradict = .28 +.18 = .46 answer

 If one diagonal of a rhombus is
equal to a side, what is the ratio
between two adjacent angles of the
rhombus?

• This will be the situation when we combine

two equilateral triangle to form a rhombus.
Thus two angles of the rhomus will be 60
each and remaining two angles will be 120
each. Thus ratio will be 1:2 ANSWER.

 PUZZLE
• A,B,C,D, are 4 villages on a straight road in
that order, given that B is equidistant from A
and C while C is equidistant from B and D
Two girls Reena and Sheena decide to watk
frorn A to D, covers the distance walking at 3
km/hr and Sheena covers the first lap (upto
B) at either l.5 or 4.5 km/ hr and then walked
at the other speed till she meets Reena.
Thereafter they walk together to D at Reena
‘s speed.What is Sheena’s speed from A to
B?
www.afterschoool.tk AFTERSCHO☺OL's MATERIAL 29
11/02/21 FOR PGPSE PARTICIPANTS
 Solution…
• The challenge is to ensure that the speed
should be such that average of which is 3
KM per hour. Let us assume that the
distance from A to B and B to C and C to
D is 9 KM each. if the speed is 4.5, it will
take her 2 hours to reach B and then X /
1.5 and Y / 3 (total = 27/3 = 9 hours).
• Other possibility is : 9/1.5 + 18 (at 4.5 and
3 per hour)
