Solution
Factorize 6pq-3rs-3ps+6qr
A
3(r -p)(2q + s)
B
3(p + r)( 2q - 2q - s)
C
3(2q - s)(p + r)
D
3(r - p)(s - 2q)
medium Difficulty
Verified Correct Answer: Option C
Step-by-Step Mathematical Solution
6pq-3rs-3ps+6qr = 3 (2pq - rs - ps + 2qr)
= 3 ({2pq + 2qr} {-ps - rs})
= 3 (2q{ p + r} -s{p + r})
= 3 ({2q - s}{p + r})

Geometry and Trigonometry
Solution
The height of an equilateral triangle of side is 10\(\sqrt{3}\)cm. Calculate its perimeter.
A
20cm
B
60cm
C
40cm
D
30cm
medium Difficulty
Verified Correct Answer: Option B
Step-by-Step Mathematical Solution
Height of an equilateral triangle, h = a\(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\), where a is the side of the equilateral triangle.
10\(\sqrt{3}\) = a\(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\)
cross multiply--> 2 x 10\(\sqrt{3}\) = a\(\sqrt{3}\)
\(\sqrt{3}\) cancels out \(\sqrt{3}\) on both sides
20 = a
The perimeter of an equilateral triangle is: P = 3a
P = 3 * 20 = 60cm

Geometry and Trigonometry
Solution
A man left town am at 10:00 AM and traveled by car to town N at an average speed of 72 km/h.
He spent 2hours for a meeting and returned through town M by bus at an average speed of 40KM/H.
If the distance covered by the bus was 2km longer than that of the car and he arrived at town M at 1 :55PM.
calculate distance from M to N.
medium Difficulty
Verified Correct Answer: Option
Step-by-Step Mathematical Solution
Time spent traveling = 3 hours 55 minutes - 2 hours
= 1hr 55mins
Let x be the distance from M - N
and t , time spent from M - N
Then t = x / 72
Return time = (23 / 12) - t
(23 / 12) - t = (x + 2) / 40
(23 / 12) - ( x / 72) = (x + 2) / 40
\(\frac{138 - x}{9}\) = \(\frac{x + 2}{5}\)
690 - 5x = 9x + 18
14x = 672
x = 48km

Geometry and Trigonometry
Solution
The points X, Y and Z are located such that Y is 15 km south of X, Z is 20 km from X on a bearing of 270".
Calculate, correct: (a) two significant figures, |YZ|
(b) The nearest degree, the bearing of Y from Z
medium Difficulty
Verified Correct Answer: Option
Step-by-Step Mathematical Solution
|YZ|\(^2\) = 15\(^2\) + 20\(^2\)
= 225 + 400 = 625
YZ = \sqrt625
YZ = 25
(b) tan \theta = \(\frac{15}{20}\)
tan \theta = 0.75
\theta = tan -1 (0.75)
= 36.87^\circ
Bearing of Y from Z = (90 + 36.87)^\circ = 126.87^\circ
= 127^\circ
