Use structure “auxiliary + past participle”

Hence , option A will be correct answer .

AP: 21, 42, 63, 84, …
a = 21
d = 42 – 21 = 21
a(n) = 210
a + (n – 1) x d = 210
21 + (n – 1) x (21) = 210
21 + 21 x n – 21 = 210
21 x n = 210
n = 10

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°.

We have to find the least number that is divisible by all numbers from 1 to 10. 

∴ LCM (1 to 10) = 2³ × 3² × 5 × 7 = 2520 

Thus, 2520 is the least number that is divisible by every element and is equal to the least common multiple.

The total surface area of a cylinder = 2πrh + 2πr² = 2πr(h + r)

Hence, Option D is correct.

Let the length of bamboo be x metres.
Length of bamboo above water

Let the required number be x.
As given,

Using Rule 1 :
1st number × 2nd number = L.C. M. × H.C.F,
First number × Second number = HCF × LCM
⇒ 864 × Second number
= 96 × 1296 ⇒ Second number

As the foot of the 'Horse' is called 'Hoof' in the same way the foot of the 'Eagle' is called 'Claw'.

Decoding the information, 

Given:

14 ÷ 2 + 8 × 5

After replacing the signs from left to right and using the BODMAS rule,

14 + 2 × 8 - 5

= 14 + 16 - 5

= 30 - 5

= 25

Hence, “25” is the correct answer.

Given:

Speed of train₁ = 32 km/h

Speed of train₂ = 40 km/h

Length of train₁ = 132 m

Length of train₂ = 108 m

Formula used:

If bodies moving in opposite direction = (x + y) km/h

If bodies moving in same direction = (x – y) km/h

Speed = Distance/Time

1 km/h = (5/18) m/sec

Calculation:

The sum of the length of the train = (132 + 108) m

⇒ 240m

According to the question

Relative speed = (32 + 40) km/h

⇒ 72 km/h

⇒ (72 × 5/18) m/sec = 20 m/sec

Now,

Time taken = Total distance/Speed

⇒ (240/20) sec

⇒ 12 sec

∴ Required time is 12 sec

Four friends W, X, Y and Z are students of Class 10th.

i) W and X are good in Hindi but poor in English.

ii) W and Y are good in Science but poor in Mathematics.

iii) Y and Z are good in English but poor in Social Studies.

iv) Z and X are good in Mathematics as well as in Science.

Thus we can see Z is good in English, Mathematics, and Science but poor in Social Studies.

Hence, the correct answer is "Z".

The logic followed here is:

In figure 1:

32 = (2 + 2) × 8

4 × 8

32

In figure 2:

24 = (3 + 1) × 6

4 × 6

24

Similarly,

In figure 3:

45 = (4 + ?) × 5 

4 + ? = 9

? = 9 - 4

? = 5

Hence, the correct answer is "5".

As 'Architect' makes 'Building' similarly 'Sculptor' makes 'Statue'.

The numeric value of the letters (considering A to be 1 and Z to be 26) is added and simplified to obtain a single digit.

For RAM, the numeric value of R, A and M is 18, 1 and 13 respectively. Their sum is 32, Now 32 is further simplified to obtain a single digit by adding 3 and 2, which gives us 5 as the final value.
Similarly for GUI, the numeric value of G,U and I is 7, 21 and 9 respectively. Their sum is 37, which is simplified as 3 + 7 = 10 => 1 + 0 = 1.
Similar process will be done to obtain the code for SAP, the numeric value of S, A and P is 19, 1 and 16 respectively. Their sum is 36, which is simplified as 3 + 6 = 9.
So, the code for SAP is 9.
Hence option (B) is correct.
