Given:

The ratio of the present age of Annu and Raj = 4 : 5

Then after 8 years ratio of their age = 5 : 6

Calculation:

Let be assume the present age of Annu and Raj is 4x and 5x respectively

⇒ (4x + 8)/(5x + 8) = 5/6

⇒ 24x + 48 = 25x + 40

⇒ x = 8

⇒ The age of Annu = 4x = 4 × 8 = 32

⇒ The age of Raj = 5x = 5 × 8 = 40

∴ The required result will be 32 years, and 40 years respectively.

Hence. the person will be allowed to appear in the interview.

Given:

The side of the square = 22 cm

Formula used:

The perimeter of the square = 4 × a    (Where a = Side of the square)

The circumference of the circle = 2 × π × r     (Where r = The radius of the circle)

Calculation:

Let us assume the radius of the circle be r

⇒ The perimeter of the square = 4 × 22 = 88 cm

⇒ The circumference of the circle = 2 × π ×  r

⇒ 88 = 2 × (22/7) × r

⇒ 

⇒ r = 14 cm

∴ The required result will be 14 cm.

Given, LCM = 225, HCF = 5,
First Number = 25 , Second Number = ?
We can find the Second Number with the help of given formula,
"LCM × HCF = 1st Number× 2nd Number"
⇒ 225 × 5 = 25 × 2nd Number

∴ 2nd Number = 45

Since A, B and C are the angles of a Δ,
∴ A + B + C = 180° .................... (1)
According to question,
A – B = 15° ;
⇒ A = B + 15°...................(2)
B – C = 30°;
⇒ B = C + 30°;....................(3)
Put the value of B from equation (2) in Equation (1), we will get
∴ A = B + 15°
A = C + 30° + 15°
A = C + 45° ......................(4)
From a equation,
∴ A + B + C = 180°
⇒ (C + 45°) + (C + 30°) + C = 180°
⇒ 3C + 45° + 30° = 180°
⇒ 3C = 180° – 75° = 105°
⇒ C = 35° ...........................(5)
From equation (4)
A = C + 45°
Put the value of C from equation (5) , we will get
∴ ∠A = 35° + 45° = 80°.

Let, the measure of the required angled be A°.
Then, measure of its complement = ( 90 – A )° measure of its supplement = (180 – A)°
According to question,
6(90° – A) = 2(180° – A) –12°
⇒ 540° – 6A = 360° – 2A – 12°
⇒ 4A = 192°
⇒ A = 48°.

Total Mango trees = 40%

Remaining trees = (100 – 40 – 50)% = 10%
