Answers:

1) Answer: D

X + 4, said to be a factor of the eqn. if x = –4, satisfy the given eqn.

So,

3 (–4)² + K (–4) + 8 = 0

48 – 4K + 8 = 0

4K = 56

K = 14

 

2) Answer: D

x + y + z = 0

x² + y² + z² + 2 (xy + yz + zx) = 0

x² + y² + z² = – 2(xy + yz + zx)

Put the value of x² + y² + z² in given eqn.

= (xy+yz+zx)/(–2(xy+yz+zx) ) = (-1/2)

 

3) Answer: D

(a + 4)³ = a³ + 12a² + ka + 64

a³ + 64 + 3 × 4 × a (a + 4) = a³ + 12a² + ka + 64

k = 48

 

4) Answer: A

(x+1/x)2=5,  x3+1/x3 =?

(x+1/x)=√5

(x+1/x) 3=(x3+1/x3 )+3(x+1/x)

5√5=x3+1/x3 +3√5

x3+1/x3 =2√5

 

5) Answer: D

(x2+1)/x=17/4

x+1/x=17/4

(x3+1/x3 )=(x+1/x)3–3(x+1/x)

=(17/4) 3–3×17/4

=4097/64

 

6) Answer: C

In isosceles triangle median is also the altitude

by Pythagoras theorem.

PN² = PQ² – QN²

= 45² – 36²

PN = 27

 

7) Answer: D

∠EBD = ∠BAC + ∠ACB    (by exterior angle theorem)

∠DEB = 180° – ∠AED (angle on one line)

= 40°

In ∆DBE,

∠BDE = 180° – (∠DEB + ∠BED)

= 180° –(40° + 115°)

= 25°

 

8) Answer: D

BE=3/2×BG

=3/2×9

= 13.5

 

9) Answer: C

y + 36° + 2y – 14 + y – 22° = 180°

4y = 180°

2y = 90°

 

10) Answer: D

SP = 2 × UQ

UQ = y, SP = 2y

In ∆TQU and ∆TPS

(TQ/TP) = (UQ/SP),

(x/(x+4)) = y/2y

2x=x+4

x=4

PT = 4+4 =8
