None of these

When the length of the shadow of a vertical pole is equal to its height, it means that the angle of the sun's rays is 45 degrees. This can be understood by visualizing a right-angled triangle formed by the pole, its shadow, and the sun. The height of the pole is the opposite side, the length of the shadow is the adjacent side, and the angle of the sun's rays is the angle between the hypotenuse and the adjacent side. In this case, the opposite and adjacent sides are equal, which implies that the angle is 45 degrees.

41) The probability that a non-leap year has 53 sundays:

A non-leap year has 365 days, which is equivalent to 52 weeks and 1 day. Since there are 7 days in a week, the 1 extra day will always fall on a specific day of the week. In this case, if the non-leap year starts on a Sunday, there will be 53 Sundays in that year. However, if it starts on any other day of the week, there will only be 52 Sundays. Therefore, the probability of a non-leap year having 53 Sundays is 1/7 or approximately 0.143.

-1

If the points (a,0), (0,b), and (1,1) are collinear, it means that they lie on the same straight line. To determine the slope of this line, we can use the formula (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) for any two points on the line. Using the points (a,0) and (0,b), we have (0 - b) / (a - 0) = -b/a. Since these points are collinear, the slope must be the same as the slope between the points (a,0) and (1,1), which is (1 - 0) / (a - 1) = 1/(a-1). Setting these two slopes equal to each other, we get -b/a = 1/(a-1). Cross-multiplying gives -b(a-1) = a, which simplifies to ab - a + b = 0. Adding a and b to both sides gives ab = a + b. Thus, the correct answer is 1.

The height of the point where the ladder touches the wall can be determined using trigonometry. In this case, the ladder forms a right triangle with the wall. The length of the ladder is the hypotenuse of the triangle, which is 15m. The angle between the ladder and the wall is given as 30 degrees. Using the sine function, we can find the height of the point where the ladder touches the wall. Therefore, the height is equal to 15m * sin(30 degrees) = 7.5m.

In two concentric circles, if chords are drawn in the outer circle which touch the inner circle, all the chords will be of the same length. This is because when a chord touches the inner circle, it is perpendicular to the radius of the inner circle at the point of contact. Since the radius is the same length from the center of the circle to any point on the circle, all the chords that touch the inner circle will have the same length.

The distance between two points in a coordinate plane can be found using the distance formula. In this case, the distance between points A (-6, 7) and B (-1, -5) is found by taking the square root of the difference in x-coordinates squared plus the difference in y-coordinates squared.

The difference in x-coordinates is (-1) - (-6) = 5, and the difference in y-coordinates is (-5) - 7 = -12.

Plugging these values into the distance formula:

distance AB = sqrt((5)^2 + (-12)^2) = sqrt(25 + 144) = sqrt(169) = 13.

Since the question asks for the distance 2 AB, we multiply 13 by 2 to get 26.

3025

2450

If the wire is bent in the form of a circle with a radius of 35cm, the circumference of the circle can be calculated using the formula C = 2πr. Substituting the given radius, we get C = 2π(35) = 70π cm. Now, if the wire is bent in the form of a square, the length of each side of the square will be equal to the circumference of the circle. Therefore, the area of the square can be calculated using the formula A = s^2, where s is the length of each side. Substituting the circumference, we get A = (70π)^2 = 4900π^2 cm^2. Since the answer options are not in terms of π, we can approximate the value of π to 3.14. Therefore, the area of the square is approximately 4900(3.14)^2 = 4900(9.8596) = 48266.04 cm^2, which is not equal to any of the given answer options. Therefore, the correct answer cannot be determined.

When two poles are connected by a wire, they form a right-angled triangle. The height of the taller pole is the hypotenuse of the triangle, and the height of the shorter pole is one of the legs. The wire acts as the other leg. Since the angle between the wire and the taller pole is given as 30 degrees, we can use trigonometry to find the length of the wire. Using the sine function, we can write sin(30) = opposite/hypotenuse. Solving for the hypotenuse, we get hypotenuse = opposite/sin(30) = 14/sin(30) = 12m. Therefore, the length of the wire is 12m.

When two circles are concentric, it means they share the same center. The length of a chord that is tangent to a circle is equal to the diameter of the circle it is tangent to. In this case, the chord is tangent to the smaller circle with a radius of 4 cm. Therefore, the length of the chord is equal to the diameter of the smaller circle, which is 8 cm. However, since the chord is divided into two equal parts by the center of the larger circle, each part has a length of half the chord's length. Therefore, the length of each part, or the length of the chord, is 8 cm divided by 2, which equals 4 cm.

105) The angle formed by the line of sight with the horizontal level is:

Vertically opposite angles

Angle of elevation

Angle of depression

Alternate angles

The angle formed by the line of sight with the horizontal level is known as the angle of depression. This angle is measured downward from the horizontal line and is commonly used to determine the angle at which an object is located below the observer's eye level. The angle of depression is often used in various fields such as surveying, navigation, and physics to calculate distances or heights of objects.

107) PQ is a tangent drawn from a point P to a circle with center O and QOR is a diameter of the circle such that POR=120 then OPQ is:

60

45

30

90

Since PQ is a tangent to the circle, it is perpendicular to the radius OR at point Q. The angle POR is given as 120 degrees. Since a tangent is perpendicular to the radius, angle OPQ is also 90 degrees. Therefore, angle OPQ + angle POR = 90 + 120 = 210 degrees. Since the sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees, angle OPQ = 180 - 210 = -30 degrees. However, angles cannot be negative, so we take the positive value of 30 degrees. Therefore, OPQ is 30 degrees.

Therefore, OPQ is 30 degrees.

108) A line segment joining(-3,-4) and (1,-2) is divided by y axis in the ratio:

1:3

2:3

3:1

2:3

The line segment joining (-3,-4) and (1,-2) intersects the y-axis at the point (0, y). To find the ratio in which the y-axis divides the line segment, we need to find the y-coordinate of the point of intersection. Since the x-coordinate of the point of intersection is 0, we can use the equation of the line passing through (-3,-4) and (1,-2) to find the y-coordinate. The equation of the line is y = mx + c, where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept. By substituting the coordinates of one of the given points, we can find the equation of the line. Using the equation, we can substitute x = 0 to find the y-coordinate. The ratio of this y-coordinate to the length of the line segment is 3:1.

112) The positive value of k for which both the equations +kx+64=0 and -8x+k=0 will have real roots:

4

8

12

16

To find the value of k for which both equations have real roots, we need to consider the discriminant of each equation. The discriminant of the first equation is k^2 - 4(1)(64) = k^2 - 256, and the discriminant of the second equation is (-8)^2 - 4(1)(k) = 64 - 4k. For both equations to have real roots, the discriminants must be greater than or equal to zero. Setting k^2 - 256 ≥ 0 and 64 - 4k ≥ 0, we find that k ≥ 16 satisfies both inequalities. Therefore, the correct answer is 16.

None of the above

If the equation -ax + 1 = 0 has two distinct roots, it means that the quadratic equation has two different solutions. This implies that the discriminant of the quadratic equation, which is b^2 - 4ac, is greater than zero. In this case, since the coefficient of x is -a, the discriminant is (-a)^2 - 4(1)(-1) = a^2 + 4. Therefore, the correct answer is 2, as it represents a situation where the discriminant is greater than zero.

116) A conical having internal radius 5 cm an height 24 cm is full of water.The water is emptied into a cylindrical vessel with internal radius 10 cm.Find the height to which water rises.

2 cm

5 cm

6 cm

4 cm

When the conical vessel is full of water, the volume of water it contains is equal to the volume of the cylindrical vessel. The volume of a cone is given by (1/3)πr^2h, where r is the radius and h is the height. The volume of a cylinder is given by πr^2h. By equating the volumes of the cone and cylinder, we can solve for the height of the water in the cylindrical vessel. In this case, the radius of the cone is 5 cm and the height is 24 cm, while the radius of the cylinder is 10 cm. By substituting these values into the equation, we find that the height to which the water rises is 2 cm.

K

K>4

If the equation +4x+1=0 has real and distinct roots, it means that the discriminant of the equation is greater than zero. The discriminant is calculated as b^2 - 4ac, where a, b, and c are the coefficients of the equation. In this case, a = 4, b = 0, and c = 1. Plugging these values into the discriminant formula gives us 0 - 4(4)(1) = -16. Since -16 is less than zero, it means that the equation does not have real and distinct roots. Therefore, the value of k cannot be determined.
