Q1. Two ships are sailing in the sea on the two sides of a lighthouse. The angle of elevation of the top of the lighthouse is observed from the ships are 30° and 45° respectively. If the lighthouse is 100 m high, the distance between the two ships is:
- 173 m
- 200 m
- 273 m
- 300 m

Q4. A hall is 15 m long and 12 m broad. If the sum of the areas of the floor and the ceiling is equal to the sum of the areas of four walls, the volume of the hall is:
- 720
- 900
- 1200
- 2000
EXPLANATION
Option 3.
Step-1: Solve for the height of the hall
Given: length(l) = 15 m, breadth(b) = 12 m
Let the height be h
According to the equation sum of the areas of the floor and the ceiling is equal to the sum of the areas of the four walls
area of floor= 1 x b
area of ceiling= 1 x b
area of wall= 2(l + b)h
so, the equation will become
= l*b+ l*b = 2(l + b) × h
= lb = lh + bh
= 15(12) = 15(h) + 12(h)
=180=27h
h = 20/3
Step-2: Solve for the volume of the height Volume of hall 1 x b x h = 15 * 12* 20/3
=1200
Hence, the volume of hall= 1200 m3.
Q5. Find the greatest number that will divide 43, 91 and 183 so as to leave the same remainder in each case.
- 4
- 7
- 9
- 14
EXPLANATION
In this case, we have to find HCF with the remainder
Step
- Find the Differences between numbers
- Get the HCF ( that differences)
We have here 43, 91 and 183
So differences are
183 – 91 = 92,
183 – 43 = 140,
91 – 43 = 48.
Now
HCF (48, 92 and 140)
As
48 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3,
92 =2 × 2 × 23,
140 = 2 × 2 × 5 × 7
HCF= 2 × 2 = 4.
And 4 is the required number.
