Solutions:
1). The sum of the square of even numbers from
2 to n= [n(n+1) (n+2)] / 6
2²+4²+6²+8²+…+50²
= [50(50+1) (50+2)] / 6
= (50×51×52) / 6 =22100
And 2²+4²+6²+8²+…+16²= [16(16+1) (16+2)] / 6
= (16×17×18) / 6 =816
Now, 18²+20²+22²+24²+…+50²
=22100-816 =21284
= (Sum of squares of 2 to 50 –Sum of squares
of 2 to 16)
Answer: (d)
2). If the last digit of a number is 6, that
number raised to any power will give a number with its last digit as 6.
∴Last digit of (496)496=6
Similarly, digit of (1016)260=6
For a number with 4 as last digit, 42n with have 6 as its last digit.
Last digit of (524)524=6
Now, 6×6×6 will have its last digit as 6.
Hence, Required answer=6
Answer: (c)
3). Since θ lies in the third quadrant, sin θ
is negative and tan θ is positive.
Now, sin θ=± √1- cosθ² θ
or, sin θ=√(1-1/4)=-3/2
or, cosec θ=-2/3 and tan θ= sinθ/cos θ =√3
Now, 4tan²θ-3cosec² θ=4×3-3×4÷3=8
Answer: (b)
5). LCM of 15, 16, 18, 20 and 24=720
Let the number to be divided by 13 be 720k+3.
Now, 720k+3=13×55k+5k+3
Then, 720k+3 is divisible by 13.
Put k=2
So, 5k+3=10+3=13which is divisible by13
∴Required number is 720k+3=720×2+3=1440+3=1443
Answer: (b)
6). Let the HCF be x. Then LCM=33x
Now, x+33x=952 or, 34x=952
∴ x=28
We know LCM×HCF=First number× Second number,
Then 33x×x=42×Seond
number or, 33×28×28=42×Second number
∴ Second number=
(33×28×28) ÷42=616
Answer: (b)
7). Given tanθ+
cotθ=16
Squaring both
sides, we get tan²θ+2tanθ.cotθ+cot²θ=256
Or, tan²θ+2+cot²θ=256
or, tan²θ+cot²θ=256-2
∴tan²θ+cot²θ=254
Now, tan²θ+cot²θ+20tanθ.cotθ
= (tan²θ+cot²θ)
+20tanθ.1÷tanθ
=254+20=274
∴ Required
ratio=254÷274 =127÷137 =127:137
Answer: (d)
10). 1038(1/13)
+1038(2/13) +1038(3/13) +1038(4/13) +1038(7/13) +1038(9/13)
=6×1038+ [(1/13)
+ (2/13) + (3/13) + (4/13) + (7/13) + (9/13)]
=6×1038+
[(1+2+3+4+7+9) /13]
=6×1038+ (26/13)
=6×1038+2=6230
Answer: (b)
