The length of shadow of a tower on the plane ground is 3 times the height of the tower. The angle of elevation of sun is
450
300
600
900
B.
300

Let AB be the tower and BC be its shadow. Let be the angle of elevation of the sun.
According to the given information,
Hence, the angle of elevation of the sun is 300.

If the area of a circle is equal to sum of the areas of two circles of diameters 10 cm and 24 cm, then the diameter of the larger circle (in cm) is
34
26

B.
26
Diameter of two circles are given as 10 cm and 24 cm.
Radius of one circle = r1 = 5 cm, Radius of other circle = r2 = 12 cm.
According to the given information,
Radius of the larger circle = 13 cm
Hence, the diameter of larger circle = 26 cm.
If the radius of the base of a right circular cylinder is halved, keeping the height the same, then the ratio of the volume of the cylinder thus obtained to the volume of original cylinder is
1 : 2
2 : 1
1 : 4
4 : 1
C.
1 : 4
Let the original radius and the height of the cylinder be r and h respectively.
Two dice are thrown together. The probability of getting the same number on both dice is:
C.
When two dice are thrown together, the total number of outcomes is 36.
favourable outcomes = { (1,1), (2,2), (3,3), (4,4), (5,5), (6,6) }
The coordinates of the point P dividing the line segment joining the points A(1, 3) and B(4, 6) in the ratio 2 : 1 are
( 2, 4 )
( 3, 5 )
( 4, 2 )
( 5, 3 )
B.
( 3, 5 )
It is given that the point P divides AB in the ratio 2 : 1.
Using the section formula, the coordinates of the point P are
Hence, the coordinates of the point P are (3,5).
