(B) Vo Since the area of square ABCD is 4 AD=2, Also, diameter EF =2 and 2 radius OE = OF =3 ‘Area ofthe circle = x= (I) = Hence the, cqrregh answer is choice B. ‘Thi sti Ofthe angles ofa five-sided polygon is (5 ~ 2) x 180=3 x 180= 540. Now, 540= 2x + 3x4 4x4 4r-4 5x29 18x x=30 ‘The measure of the smallest angle is *2 x 30-60" Hence the correet answer is choice B, Each car needed gasoline = x gallons ~zears needed gasoline = zx gallons _yealonreguted at hisate = 2 Hence the correct answer is choice D. Trere re 24 hours in a day, and 24 « 14 = 336 hours in two wecks also 336 x 60 36 ~ 20,160 minut in two wesks. Thus the faction with 36 minutes is 305 = Zap Hence the correct answer is choice D. Since Ts the total ara of he 5 circles, therefore, T= S(a") ‘Now, Sis the total area ofthe 3 circles of radius u, therefore S = 3(au?) “T =S(given) sn? =u? 2 oe Hence the correct answer is choice C. eee ow As ~ 4 heneees Hoga .. = ad lee Hence the correct answer is choice B. 2 Given that yrs2,4 4 3xEt4 Gea 2,5 8 4xgt5 545 6+20 apa 28 842533 3 Hence, (3x-+ 4y) : (4x + Sy) = 26:33 Thus, correct answer is choice C. Q8. (A) Since charges on first five ounces ~ 62 cents. Now, 1.66 dollars = 100 + 66 = 166 cents. Thus, first 62 cents are charged for five ounces, then by remaining cents will be 166 - 62 = 104. Since 8 cents are received for additional ounce. Therefore, 104 is received for “p= 13 ounces. The total package is 13+5 = 18 ounces. “S16 ounces = 1 pound 1 J ounces =7¢ pound 18 ounces =y* 18 pounds = 1.125 pounds Hence the correct answer is choice “A”. Q9. (C) Take I, (36 ~ 81) = (6 -9)(6 + 9) is true because [(6)? - (9)']= (6 — 9X6 +9), as @-b =(a+ ba) Take Il, 5(16 + 7) = 5(16) + 5(7) is also true, because according to distributive property of multiplication over addition (a+ b)=xa + xb Now, take III, 5 + (10 - 1) =(5 + 10) ~ (1 + 5) is not a true statement, Hence the correct answer is choice C, QL0.(B) Let the total number of votes polled be x. Then 65% of x ~ 35% of x= 300 => 30% of x= 300 2h cx =300 or x= 2005100 _ 1999 100 30 Het.ce the correct answer is choice B. QUL(B) - DE = EB and DF = FC, the area of the shaded region is one-fourth the area of triangular region. (yl BCD, since BD divides square ABCD into two equal triangular regions, the shaded region is Gia) or t of the area of square region ABCD, Hence, the best answer is B. YU2(C) Let x be the total prize and let y be the required angle then setting the proportion, we havewy x360 =>y=4x 24596" Hence the correct answer is choice C. Q13(B) OB=OC=> ZOCB = ZOBC=25° $0, ZBOC = [180 - (25 +25)] = 130° 2. ZBAC =4anoc = 65° Hence the correct answer is choice B.
