Test: Rotation of Shapes - Question 1

Consider the following square with the four corners and the center marked as P, Q, R, S and T respectively.

Let X, Y and Z represent the following operations:

X: rotation of the square by 180 degree with respect to the S-Q axis.
Y: rotation of the square by 180 degree with respect to the P-R axis.
Z: rotation of the square by 90 degree clockwise with respect to the axis perpendicular, going into the screen and passing through the point T.

Consider the following three distinct sequences of operation (which are applied in the left to right order).
(1) XYZZ
(2) XY
(3) ZZZZ

Which one of the following statements is correct as per the information provided above?

Detailed Solution for Test: Rotation of Shapes - Question 1

1) For XYZZ

and ZZ

3) ZZZZ

 

Test: Rotation of Shapes - Question 2

Consider a cube made by folding a single sheet of paper of appropriate shape. The interior faces of the cube are all blank. However, the exterior faces that are not visible in the above view may not be blank.

Which one of the following represents a possible unfolding of the cube?

Detailed Solution for Test: Rotation of Shapes - Question 2

The Dark Shaded edge is perpendicular to a given line and the Light shaded edge is parallel to the given line so it can be assumed that option 4 is correct but there is no sign of + represented anywhere in the Question.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

Detailed Solution for Test: Rotation of Shapes - Question 3

Test: Rotation of Shapes - Question 4


 

A block with a trapezoidal cross-section is placed over a block with rectangular cross section as shown above.

Which one of the following is the correct drawing of the view of the 3D object as viewed in the direction indicated by an arrow in the above figure?

Detailed Solution for Test: Rotation of Shapes - Question 4

If we view the given figure from the direction of the arrow mentioned in the question we will see a trapezium on the right side placed above the rectangle.

Test: Rotation of Shapes - Question 5

Which one of the groups given below can be assembled to get the shape that is shown above using each piece only once without overlapping with each other? (rotation and translation operations may be used).

Detailed Solution for Test: Rotation of Shapes - Question 5

option 1:

The above-given image will not be able to produce

The above-given image will be able to produce


as three triangles will make the bottom part whereas the remaining two will make the above part.

Option 3:


The above-given image will not be able to produce

as there is no scope for trapezium to fit in it.

Option 4:

The above-given image will not be able to produce

as one more triangle is required.

Thus option 2 is the correct  answer here.

Test: Rotation of Shapes - Question 6

Corners are cut from an equilateral triangle to produce a regular convex hexagon as shown in the figure above. The ratio of the area of the regular convex hexagon to the area of the original equilateral triangle is

Detailed Solution for Test: Rotation of Shapes - Question 6

Concept:

Area of an equilateral triangle  

where a = side of the triangle.

Calculation:

Given:

Let the side of the large triangle is 'a' then the side of the regular hexagon is a/3
If each triangle's area 
then the area of regular hexagon 

∴ The ratio of the area of the regular convex hexagon to the area of the original equilateral triangle is 2/3

Test: Rotation of Shapes - Question 7

Consider a square sheet of side 1 unit. In the first step, it is cut along the main diagonal to get two triangles. In the next step, one of the cut triangles is revolved about its short edge to form a solid cone. The volume of the resulting cone, in cubic units, is ________

Detailed Solution for Test: Rotation of Shapes - Question 7

Concept:
The volume of the solid cone 

Calculation:

Given:
A square sheet of side 1 unit is cut along the diagonal.

Now the triangle is revolved along its shortest length to form a solid cone 


 

where R = 1 unit, H = 1 unit.

The required volume of the resulting cone is:

Test: Rotation of Shapes - Question 8

The least number of squares that must be added so that the line P-Q becomes the line of symmetry is ________.

Detailed Solution for Test: Rotation of Shapes - Question 8

For symmetry we have to add some squares

After combining the obtained figure we get 


Hence for making the P-Q line symmetry 6 squares must be added

Test: Rotation of Shapes - Question 9

Consider a square sheet of side 1 unit. The sheet is first folded along the main diagonal. This is followed by a fold along its line of symmetry. The resulting folded shape is again folded along its line of symmetry. The area of each face of the final folded shape, in square units, equal to _____.

Detailed Solution for Test: Rotation of Shapes - Question 9

let us consider a square sheet of side 1 unit.

Now fold the sheet along the main diagonal.

Now fold this along their line of symmetry.

again fold this along their line of symmetry.

The side of the resulting shape = 1/2 unit
 Area of resultant shape = 1/2 x side2

Area of resultant shape= 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2

Area of resultant shape = 1/8

Test: Rotation of Shapes - Question 10

We have 2 rectangular sheets of paper. M and N, of dimensions 6 cm x 1 cm each. Sheet M is rolled to from an open cylinder by bringing the short edges of the sheet together. Sheet N is cut into equal patches and assembled to from the largest closed cube. Assuming the ends of the cylinder are closed, the ratio of the volume of the cylinder to that cube is ______

Detailed Solution for Test: Rotation of Shapes - Question 10

Given:

Two rectangular sheets M and N have the dimension 6 cm × 1 cm each,  in which cylinder will be formed by bringing the short edges of the sheet together. Given that ends of the cylinder are closed.

Concept:

Volume of cylinder = π x r2 x h
The volume of the cube = a3

Calculation:

Let be assume the side of the cube is a,
⇒ The area of the sheet N = 6 x a2
⇒ 6 × 1 = 6 x a2
⇒ a = 1
⇒ Volume of the cube = a3 = 13 = 1
⇒  The circumference  = 6
⇒ 2 × π × r = 6, r = 3/π and height of the cylinder = 1 cm
⇒ Volume of the cylinder = π x (3/π)2 x 1 = 9/π 
⇒ The required ratio = 9/π : 1
∴ The required result will be 9/π .
