 SECTION C

Section C has 6 questions from 50 – 55. After reading the passage attempt
any 5 questions.

Manoj is a brilliant and curious student. He is very fond of

geometrical shapes and always tried something new and innovative.
Wherever he goes he starts collecting different objects. In such a way he
collected squares of different measurements. He finds that the collected
squares are in decreasing order of side ie. 25 mm, 24mm, 23mm, ... , up
to 12mm. He curiously put one square over another square in decreasing
order of size.

c) Triangle
d) Square
52. What will be the position of the axis of the solid?
a) Perpendicular to VP
b) Perpendicular to HP
c) Parallel to HP and VP both
d) None of the above
53. What will be the front View when its axis is perpendicular to VP?
a) Square
b) Trapezium
c) Rectangle

obtained will be
