Quantitative Aptitude [ Question No: 1 To 4 ] :
The area of an equilateral triangle is \(\sqrt{3}\). What is the perimeter of the triangle?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
The perimeter is 6.
An equilateral triangle of side \(a\) has area \(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}a^{2}\). Setting this equal to \(\sqrt{3}\):
\[ \begin{aligned} \frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}a^{2} &= \sqrt{3} \\ a^{2} &= 4, \quad a = 2 \end{aligned} \]
The perimeter is \(3a = 6\). 2 is the side itself, 4 is \(a^{2}\) or two sides, and 8 does not follow from the area.
Consider the following statements:
1. If 48% of a number is 120, then 170% of the number will be 350.
2. The number 3.5 can be expressed in terms of percentage as 350%,
3. 1100 boys and 700 girls appeared in a test, 42% of the boys and 30% of the girls passed. The percentage of total who failed is \(62\frac{2}{3}\)%
How many of the statements given above are correct?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
Only two statements are correct.
Statement 1: 48% of N is 120, so N = 250, and 170% of 250 is 425, not 350. False.
Statement 2: 3.5 × 100% = 350%. True.
Statement 3: passes are \(0.42 \times 1100 = 462\) boys and \(0.30 \times 700 = 210\) girls, 672 in all out of 1800, so 1128 failed.
\[ \frac{1128}{1800} \times 100 = 62\tfrac{2}{3}\% \]
True. So statements 2 and 3 are correct and statement 1 is not.
Which of the following assertions are CORRECT?
P: Adding 7 to each entry in a list adds 7 to the mean of the list
Q: Adding 7 to each entry in a list adds 7 to the standard deviation of the list
R: Doubling each entry in a list doubles the mean of the list
S: Doubling each entry in a list leaves the standard deviation of the list unchanged
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : C
The correct assertions are P and R.
- P is true: adding a constant to every entry adds it to the mean.
- Q is false: adding a constant shifts every entry and the mean equally, so the deviations from the mean, and the standard deviation, are unchanged.
- R is true: doubling every entry doubles the mean.
- S is false: doubling every entry doubles every deviation, so the standard deviation doubles.
Every other option includes Q or S, so P, R is the only fully correct choice.
Find the principle on a certain sum of money at 5% per annum for 2 2/5 years if the amount being Rs.1120?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
\[ \text{SI} = \frac{P \times R \times T}{100} \]
The period \( 2\tfrac{2}{5} \) years is 2.4 years, and Rs. 1120 is the amount.
\[ 1120 = P\left(1 + \frac{5 \times 2.4}{100}\right) = P(1.12) \]
\[ P = \text{Rs. } 1000 \]
The interest is Rs. 120, which is 12% of the principal - 5% a year for 2.4 years.

Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : D
Correct answer: Deposit it in the nearest police station.
The money is not yours, and the owner may come looking for it. Handing it in at the police station is the proper course - it keeps you honest and gives the owner a chance of recovering it.
English Language [ Question No: 6 To 9 ] :
Replace the underlined common phrases with the right option.
I am in a fix and fail to understand whether I should help him or not.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
In a fix means confused.
To be in a fix is to be in a difficult or awkward situation where one does not know what to do. The rest of the sentence makes the sense clear: the speaker cannot decide whether to help him or not.
Satisfied is the opposite of the uncertainty described, and angry is a different feeling altogether. Since confused fits, "None of these" is wrong.
Similar idioms for a difficult position are in a spot, in a jam and in a dilemma, the last used when there are two choices, as here.
Fill in the blank in the given sentence by choosing the most appropriate word from the options given below :
Though the film had __________ bad review, I quite liked it.
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : B
The correct article is a: the film had a bad review.
Review is a singular countable noun mentioned for the first time, so it needs the indefinite article. Since 'bad' begins with a consonant sound, the form is a.
'The bad review' would point to a review already known to the reader. 'An' is used before vowel sounds. Leaving out the article is wrong because a singular countable noun cannot stand alone here.
Thousands of years ago, some people began dairy farming. This coincided with a number of mutations in a particular gene that resulted in these people developing the ability to digest dairy milk.
Based on the given passage, which of the following can be inferred?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : D
The inference is that in human beings, digestion of dairy milk resulted from a mutated gene.
The passage says the mutations in a particular gene resulted in some people developing the ability to digest dairy milk. That supports this statement directly.
It does not support 'all human beings can digest dairy milk', since only some people developed the ability, nor 'no human being can', since some did. Nothing in the passage says digesting milk is essential for humans.
Do you stay at $10 or do you want to raise the _____________?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
It is ante.
The ante is the stake put up before a hand of cards - to raise the ante. Anti means against, and the two are close enough in sound to be confused.

Correct answer: multiplexer
A multiplexer combines several input streams onto one line and separates them again at the far end. A concentrator also shares a line but buffers and forwards rather than dividing it into fixed channels.
In MS Word, what is the purpose of the Restrict Editing feature?
Your Answer : (Not Answered)
Correct Answer : A
Correct answer: To limit what changes other people may make to a document
Restrict Editing, on the Review tab, controls what may be done to a document. It offers three kinds of restriction: limiting formatting to a chosen set of styles, limiting editing to comments only, tracked changes only, filling in forms, or no changes at all, and granting exceptions so that named users may edit particular regions. Protection is applied with an optional password. Without one the restriction can be lifted by anyone, so it serves as a guard against accidental change rather than as security. It is the mechanism behind fillable forms: setting the document to Filling in forms locks everything except the form fields. The distractors describe other features. File size is reduced by compressing images. Printing is not separately preventable in Word. Ribbon customisation is a per-user setting rather than a document property. For genuine confidentiality, Encrypt with Password under File, Info is the stronger option.
