Each of the following questions contains a small paragraph followed by a question on it. Read each paragraph carefully and answer the question given below it.
The context in the developing and third world countries is worse. Women here are still subject to ‘honor killings’, they are still denied their basic rights to education and freedom, and face violence and abuse. It was observed in a CARE project working with adolescent girls in India, that these girls were considered as temporary people who would cease to exist, at least for their fathers, once they are married.

Quantitative Aptitude [ Question No: 1 To 5 ] :
In an isosceles trapezoid, which of the following is true?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
An isosceles trapezoid has one pair of parallel sides, and its two non-parallel sides are equal.
Its diagonals are also equal, and its base angles are equal in pairs - but opposite angles are supplementary rather than equal.
The fifth term of a G.P. is 81 and the second term is 24. Find the G.P.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
We have \(a_5 = ar^4 = 81\) and \(a_2 = ar = 24\). Dividing the equations: \(\frac{ar^4}{ar} = \frac{81}{24} \Rightarrow r^3 = 27/8\). So, \(r=3/2\). Substitute r back into the second equation: \(a(3/2) = 24 \Rightarrow a = 24 \times 2/3 = 16\). The G.P. is 16, \(16 \times 3/2 = 24\), \(24 \times 3/2 = 36\), ...
What is the remainder when the product \(121 \times 122 \times 123\) is divided by 7?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
Correct answer: 3
Reduce each factor modulo 7 before multiplying, rather than forming the product first.
\[121 = 7\times 17 + 2,\qquad 122 = 7\times 17 + 3,\qquad 123 = 7\times 17 + 4\]
So the product is congruent to \(2\times 3\times 4 = 24\), and \(24 = 7\times 3 + 3\).
\[121\times 122\times 123 \equiv 3 \pmod 7\]
What will be the compound interest on a sum of Rs. 25,000 after 3 years at the rate of 12 p.c.p.a.?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
\[ A = P\left(1 + \frac{R}{100}\right)^{n}, \qquad \text{CI} = A - P, \qquad \text{SI} = \frac{PRn}{100} \]
\[ \text{CI} = 25000\left[(1.12)^{3} - 1\right] \]
\[ (1.12)^{3} = 1.404928 \]
\[ \text{CI} = 25000(0.404928) = \text{Rs. } 10{,}123.20 \]
Simple interest would be \( 25000 \times 0.36 = 9000 \), so the compounding adds a little over Rs. 1100 - which is why the 9000-ish option is offered.
A cistern can be filled in 9 hours but due to a leak at its bottom it takes 10 hours. If the cistern is full, then the time that the leak will take to make it empty will be ?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
Part filled without leak in 1 hour = 1/9
Part filled with leak in 1 hour = 1/10
Work done by leak in 1 hour
=1/9-1/10=190
We used subtraction as it is getting empty.
So total time to empty the cistern is 90 hours

In each question below is given a statement followed by two assumptions numbered I and II. You have to consider the statement and the following assumptions and decide which of the assumptions is implicit in the statement.
Give answer
- (A) If only assumption I is implicit
- (B) If only assumption II is implicit

Statement: All the employees are notified that the organisation will provide transport facilities at half cost from the nearby railway station to the office except those who have been provided with travelling allowance.
Assumptions:
1. Most of the employees will travel by the office transport.
2. Those who are provided with travelling allowance will not read such notice.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
The facility given by the office shall be an added privilege and many employees will avail of the same. So, I is implicit. Also, the statement 'All the employees are notified.....' implies that the notice is for all the employees. So, II is not implicit.

The passage best supports the statement that:
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : D
Correct answer: In many places in India, domestic violence is acceptable to women, and cultural and ethical implications are imposed on their freedom.
The passage reports what happens rather than what ought to happen: honour killings, denial of education and freedom, violence and abuse, and girls treated as temporary people who will cease to exist for their fathers once married. That is a description of cultural constraint and accepted violence. The options about equal rights bringing progress or about hope for the future are recommendations and predictions the passage never makes.

In each of the following questions, there is a certain relationship between two given words on one side of : : and one word is given on another side of : : while another word is to be found from the given alternatives, having the same relation with this word as the words of the given pair bear.Choose the correct alternatives.
Pesticide : Crop : :Antiseptic : ?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
Correct answer: Wound
The relation is agent : what it is applied to. A pesticide is applied to a crop to keep off pests; an antiseptic is applied to a wound to keep out infection. A bandage covers the wound afterwards.
In this question, some equations are solved on the basis of a certain system. On the same basis find out the correct answer from amongst the four alternatives for the unsolved equation.
15 x 26 = 6512
29 x 36 = 6923,
46 x 54 = ?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
Correct answer: 4645
Nothing is multiplied here - the four digits are simply rearranged. Writing the two numbers as \( a_1a_2 \) and \( b_1b_2 \), the result reads \( b_2\,a_2\,a_1\,b_1 \): the units digit of the second number, then the units digit of the first, then the tens digit of the first, then the tens digit of the second.
Checking both given equations: \( 15 \times 26 \) gives \( 6,5,1,2 = 6512 \) and \( 29 \times 36 \) gives \( 6,9,2,3 = 6923 \). So \( 46 \times 54 \) gives \[ 4,\,6,\,4,\,5 = \mathbf{4645} \]

Computer Awareness [ Question No: 12 To 13 ] :

Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : D
Correct answer: Protocol identifier
Every URL begins with the scheme that says how the resource is to be fetched - http, https, ftp, mailto. That protocol identifier is the one part that is always present; www is merely a common host name and may be absent.
Twisted pairs are used in
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
Correct answer: Telecommunications
Twisted pair is the cable of the telephone network, and the twisting is what cancels the interference each wire would otherwise pick up. It is also used for LAN cabling, which grew out of the same technology.
General Awareness / General Knowledge (GK) [ Question No: 14 To 20 ] :
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
Anions are formed by the gain of electrons.
Adding negative charge to a neutral atom leaves a net negative ion, as when \(\mathrm{Cl} + e^- \rightarrow \mathrm{Cl^-}\). The anion is always larger than the parent atom, because the same nuclear charge now holds more electrons and repulsion between them increases.

Correct Answer : A
Richard Gurley Drew invented it.
Working for 3M, he made masking tape in 1925 for car painters doing two-tone jobs, and transparent Scotch tape in 1930. The nickname is said to come from a painter's complaint that the firm's Scotch bosses had been too sparing with the adhesive.
