Answers :

1) Answer: C

General formula,

2) Answer: C

3) Answer: A

ATQ,

π (r²) × 25 = 3850

r² = 49

r = 7 cm

4) Answer: A

5) Answer: C

6) Answer: A

7) Answer: C

From Euler’s Formula

Vertices – Edges + Faces = 2

Vertices – 30 + 12 = 2

Vertices = 20

8) Answer: A

(x + y)² = x² + y² + 2xy

(x + y)² = 100 + 2 × 22

(x + y)² = 144

x + y = √144 = 12

9) Answer: D

Go by options,

Only Eqn. [4x² + 8x + 4 = 0] has equal roots.

10) Answer: C

ATQ,
