A circular wire of radius 7.5 cm is cut and bent so as to lie along the circumference of a hoop of radius 120 cm. Find, in degrees, the angle subtended at the centre of the hoop.

2025 BASIC MATHS MEDIUM
Correct Answer
Choice (C): \(22^{\circ}30^{\prime}\)
Detailed Solution

Circumference of the circular wire = \(2\pi r = 2\pi \times 7.5 = 15\pi\) cm

This wire is bent to form an arc on the hoop of radius 120 cm.

Arc length = \(15\pi\) cm

Using the formula: Arc length = \(r\theta\) where \(\theta\) is in radians.

\(15\pi = 120\theta\)

\(\theta = \dfrac{15\pi}{120} = \dfrac{\pi}{8}\) radians

Converting to degrees: \(\theta = \dfrac{\pi}{8} \times \dfrac{180}{\pi} = \dfrac{180}{8} = 22.5^{\circ}\)

The number of parallelograms that can be formed from a set of four parallel lines intersecting three parallel lines is:

2025 PERMUTATIONS-COMBINATIONS MEDIUM
Correct Answer
Choice (D): \(18\)
Detailed Solution

To form a parallelogram, we need to select 2 lines from one set of parallel lines and 2 lines from another set of parallel lines.

We have 4 parallel lines in one direction.

Number of ways to select 2 lines from 4 = \(^4C_2 = 6\)

We have 3 parallel lines in another direction.

Number of ways to select 2 lines from 3 = \(^3C_2 = 3\)

Total number of parallelograms = \(6 \times 3 = 18\)

3

What is the area other than the area common between two quadrants of the circle of radius each, which is shown as the shaded region in the figure, given that side of the square is 16?

2025 BASIC MATHS MEDIUM
Correct Answer
Choice (C): \(128(4-\pi)\)
Detailed Solution

Side of square = 16, so radius of each quadrant = 16

Area of the square = \(16^2 = 256\)

Area of one quadrant = \(\dfrac{1}{4}\pi (16)^2 = 64\pi\)

Area of two quadrants = \(2 \times 64\pi = 128\pi\)

The common area between the two quadrants (lens-shaped region):

Common area = Area of 2 quadrants - Area of square = \(128\pi - 256\)

Shaded area \(=256 -(128\pi-256)\)

\(=128(4-\pi)\)

If \(X\) denotes the number on the uppermost face of a fair cubic die when it is tossed, then \(E(X)\) is

2025 PROBABILITY EASY
Correct Answer
Choice (A): \(\dfrac{7}{2}\)
Detailed Solution

For a fair die, \(X\) can be \(1, 2, 3, 4, 5\) or \(6\), each with probability \(\dfrac{1}{6}\).

Expected value \(E(X) = \sum x_i P(x_i)\)

\(E(X) = 1 \cdot \dfrac{1}{6} + 2 \cdot \dfrac{1}{6} + 3 \cdot \dfrac{1}{6} + 4 \cdot \dfrac{1}{6} + 5 \cdot \dfrac{1}{6} + 6 \cdot \dfrac{1}{6}\)

\(E(X) = \dfrac{1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6}{6} = \dfrac{21}{6} = \dfrac{7}{2}\)

5

In the arrangements of the letters of the word INDEPENDENCE, how many arrangements begin with I and end with P, and in how many arrangements do the vowels never occur together?

2025 PERMUTATIONS-COMBINATIONS HARD
Correct Answer
Choice (B): \(12600, 1646400\)
Detailed Solution

Word: INDEPENDENCE (12 letters)

Letters: I(1), N(3), D(2), E(4), P(1), C(1)

Part 1: Arrangements beginning with I and ending with P

Fix I at start and P at end. Arrange remaining 10 letters: N(3), D(2), E(4), C(1)

Number of arrangements = \(\dfrac{10!}{3! \cdot 2! \cdot 4!}\)

Calculating: \(\dfrac{3628800}{6 \cdot 2 \cdot 24} = \dfrac{3628800}{288} = 12600\)

Part 2: Vowels never together

Vowels: I, E, E, E, E (5 vowels); Consonants: N, D, P, N, D, N, C (7 consonants). The required answer = total number of words – those when all the vowels are together. Total number of words \(=\dfrac{10!}{4!\times 3!\times 2!}=1663200 \)

Number of words when all the vowels are together. Assume all the vowels as one group, there will be 8 objects to be arranged in a line, number of such words is

\(\dfrac{5!}{4!}\times \dfrac{8!}{3!\times 2!}=16800\)

Hence the number of words = \(1663200-16800=1646400\)

6

Find the distance from the eye at which a coin of diameter 2 cm should be held so as to just conceal the full moon whose angular diameter is \(31'\).

2025 TRIGONOMETRY MEDIUM
Correct Answer
Choice (C): \(2.217\) m
Detailed Solution

Diameter of coin = 2 cm, Angular diameter of moon = \(31'\)

Converting \(31'\) to radians: \(31' = \dfrac{31}{60}\) degrees = \(\dfrac{31}{60} \times \dfrac{\pi}{180} = \dfrac{31\pi}{10800}\) radians

For small angles, \(\theta \approx \dfrac{d}{r}\) where \(d\) is diameter and \(r\) is distance.

\(\dfrac{31\pi}{10800} = \dfrac{2}{r}\) (diameter in cm)

or \(r = \dfrac{2 \times 10800}{31\pi} = \dfrac{21600}{31 \times 3.14159} \approx 221.7\) cm

Hence \(r = 2.217\) m

7

The number of real solutions of the equation \(\sqrt{1 + \cos 2x} = \sqrt{2} \cos^{-1}(\cos x)\) in the interval \(\left[-\dfrac{\pi}{2}, \pi\right]\) is

2025 TRIGONOMETRY HARD
Correct Answer
Choice (B): \(2\)
Detailed Solution

\(\sqrt{1 + \cos 2x} = \sqrt{2\cos^2 x} = \sqrt{2}|\cos x|\)

The equation becomes: \(\sqrt{2}|\cos x| = \sqrt{2}\cos^{-1}(\cos x)\)

Hence \(|\cos x| = \cos^{-1}(\cos x)\)

For \(x \in [0, \pi]\), \(\cos^{-1}(\cos x) = x\)

For \(x \in \left[-\dfrac{\pi}{2}, 0\right)\), \(\cos^{-1}(\cos x) = -x\)

Plotting both the graphs  \(y=\cos x\) and \(y=\cos^{-1}(\cos x)\) we see that there are only two solutions.

8

Solve the differential equation \(\dfrac{dy}{dx} + y = 1\), given that \(y(0) = 2\). Find the value of \(y\) when \(x = 1\).

2025 DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS MEDIUM
Correct Answer
Choice (A): \(1 + e^{-1}\)
Detailed Solution

This is a first-order linear differential equation in the form \(\dfrac{dy}{dx} + Py = Q\).

Here, \(P = 1\) and \(Q = 1\).

Integrating factor: I.F. = \(e^{\int P dx} = e^{\int 1 dx} = e^x\)

Multiplying the equation by I.F.:

\(e^x \dfrac{dy}{dx} + e^x y = e^x\)

\(\dfrac{d}{dx}(ye^x) = e^x\)

Integrating both sides: \(ye^x = \int e^x dx = e^x + C\)

\(y = 1 + Ce^{-x}\)

Applying initial condition \(y(0) = 2\):

\(2 = 1 + Ce^0 = 1 + C\), so \(C = 1\)

Solution: \(y = 1 + e^{-x}\)

When \(x = 1\): \(y(1) = 1 + e^{-1}\)

The projections of a line segment on the coordinate axes are \(12, 4, 3\), respectively. The length and direction cosines of the line segment are:

2025 VECTORS EASY
Correct Answer
Choice (A): Length \(13\), direction cosines \(\dfrac{12}{13}, \dfrac{4}{13}, \dfrac{3}{13}\)
Detailed Solution

Projections on \(x, y, z\) axes are \(12, 4, 3\) respectively.

Length of the line segment: \(d = \sqrt{12^2 + 4^2 + 3^2} =  \sqrt{169} = 13\)

Direction cosines are given by \(\ell = \dfrac{a}{d}, m = \dfrac{b}{d}, n = \dfrac{c}{d}\) where \(a, b, c\) are the projections.

\(\ell = \dfrac{12}{13}\), \(m = \dfrac{4}{13}\), \(n = \dfrac{3}{13}\)

10

Find the total number of ways in which 20 balls can be distributed into 5 boxes such that the first box contains exactly one ball.

2025 PERMUTATIONS-COMBINATIONS MEDIUM
Correct Answer
Choice (A): \(20 \times 4^{19}\)
Detailed Solution

First box must contain exactly 1 ball.

Number of ways to choose 1 ball from 20 = \(^{20}C_1 = 20\)

Remaining 19 balls can be distributed into remaining 4 boxes.

Each of the 19 balls can go into any of the 4 boxes, number of ways = \(4^{19}\)

Total number of ways = \(20 \times 4^{19}\)

11

Two customers, Ruchana and Bhakati, visit a shop during the same week (Tuesday to Saturday). Each is equally likely to visit on any day. What is the probability that they visit on consecutive days?

2025 PROBABILITY MEDIUM
Correct Answer
Choice (A): \(\dfrac{8}{25}\)
Detailed Solution

There are 5 days: Tuesday to Saturday. Each person can visit on any of these 5 days.

Total possible outcomes = \(5 \times 5 = 25\)

For consecutive days, the pairs are: (Tue, Wed), (Wed, Thu), (Thu, Fri), (Fri, Sat)

That's 4 pairs. But either person can visit first, so favorable outcomes are:

Ruchana visits before Bhakati : 4 ways

Bhakati visits before Ruchana: 4 ways

Total favorable outcomes = \(4 + 4 = 8\)

Probability = \(\dfrac{8}{25}\)

12

The coefficients of \(x^n\) in the expansions of \((1 + x)^{2n}\) and \((1 + x)^{2n - 1}\) are in the ratio:

2025 ALGEBRA MEDIUM
Correct Answer
Choice (D): \(2:1\)
Detailed Solution

Coefficient of \(x^n\) in \((1 + x)^{2n}\) is \(^{2n}C_{n}\)

Coefficient of \(x^n\) in \((1 + x)^{2n-1}\) is \(^{2n-1}C_{n}\)

Required ratio = \(\dfrac{^{2n}C_{n}}{^{2n-1}C_{n}}\)

\(= \dfrac{(2n!)(n!)(n-1)!}{(2n-1)!(n!)(n!)}=2\)

Therefore, the ratio is \(2:1\)

13

The area of an equilateral triangle is \(49\sqrt{3} \text{ cm}^2\). Taking each angular point as centre, circles are drawn with radius equal to half the length of the side of the triangle. Find the area of the triangle not included in the circles. (use \(\pi = 3.14\))

2025 BASIC MATHS MEDIUM
Correct Answer
Choice (A): \(7.94\)
Detailed Solution

Area of equilateral triangle = \(\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{4}a^2 = 49\sqrt{3}\)

Hence  \(a^2 = 196\), or \(a = 14\) cm

Radius of each circle = \(\dfrac{a}{2} = 7\) cm

Each angle of equilateral triangle = \(60^{\circ}\)

Area of sector at each vertex = \(\dfrac{60}{360} \times \pi r^2 = \dfrac{49\pi}{6}\)

Total area of three sectors inside triangle = \(3 \times \dfrac{49\pi}{6}=\dfrac{49\pi}{2}\) cm²

Area of triangle = \(49 \sqrt{3}\) cm²

Area not covered by circles = \(\dfrac{49\pi}{2}-49\sqrt{3}=7.94\) cm².

14

For the parabola \(y^{2} = 4x\), which of the following points lies on it?

2025 COORDINATE GEOMETRY EASY

15

The length of the perpendicular drawn from \((1,2,3)\) to the line \(\dfrac{x-6}{3} = \dfrac{y-7}{2} = \dfrac{z-7}{-2}\) is

2025 VECTORS HARD
Correct Answer
Choice (D): \(7\)
Detailed Solution

Point: \(P(1, 2, 3)\)

Line passes through \(A(6, 7, 7)\) with direction ratios \((3, 2, -2)\)

Vector \(\vec{AP} = (1-6, 2-7, 3-7) = (-5, -5, -4)\)

Direction vector of line: \(\vec{b} = (3, 2, -2)\)

Perpendicular distance = \(\dfrac{|\vec{AP} \times \vec{b}|}{|\vec{b}|}\)

Cross product: \(\vec{AP} \times \vec{b} = \begin{vmatrix} \hat{i} & \hat{j} & \hat{k} \\ -5 & -5 & -4 \\ 3 & 2 & -2 \end{vmatrix}\)

\(= 18\hat{i} - 22\hat{j} + 5\hat{k}\)

\(|\vec{AP} \times \vec{b}| = \sqrt{18^2 + 22^2 + 5^2} = \sqrt{324 + 484 + 25} = \sqrt{833}\)

\(|\vec{b}| = \sqrt{9 + 4 + 4} = \sqrt{17}\)

Distance = \(\dfrac{\sqrt{833}}{\sqrt{17}} = \sqrt{\dfrac{833}{17}} = \sqrt{49} = 7\)

16

A pendulum swings through an angle of \(30^\circ\) and describes an arc of length 17.6 cm. Find the length of the pendulum.

2025 BASIC MATHS EASY
Correct Answer
Choice (A): \(33.6\)
Detailed Solution

Arc length formula: \(s = r\theta\) where \(\theta\) is in radians.

\(\theta = 30 \times \dfrac{\pi}{180} = \dfrac{\pi}{6}\) radians

Given arc length \(s = 17.6\) cm

Hence \(17.6 = r \times \dfrac{\pi}{6}\)

\(r = \dfrac{17.6 \times 6}{\pi} = \dfrac{105.6}{3.14159} \approx 33.6\) cm

17

Find the domain of \(\cos^{-1}(2x - 3)\).

2025 FUNCTIONS EASY
Correct Answer
Choice (C): \(\left[ 1, 2 \right]\)
Detailed Solution

The domain of \(\cos^{-1}(t)\) is \([-1, 1]\).

For \(\cos^{-1}(2x - 3)\) to be defined:

\(-1 \leq 2x - 3 \leq 1\)

Hence \(1 \leq x \leq 2\)

Domain = \([1, 2]\)

18

Two circles touch each other externally. The sum of their areas is \(130\pi \text{ cm}^2\) and the distance between their centres is 14 cm. The radii of the circles are:

2025 BASIC MATHS MEDIUM
Correct Answer
Choice (A): \(11, 3\)
Detailed Solution

Let the radii be \(r_1\) and \(r_2\).

Sum of areas: \(\pi r_1^2 + \pi r_2^2 = 130\pi\)

So \(r_1^2 + r_2^2 = 130\) ... (1)

Circles touch externally: \(r_1 + r_2 = 14\) ... (2)

From (2): \((r_1 + r_2)^2 = 196\)

\(r_1^2 + 2r_1r_2 + r_2^2 = 196\)

Using (1): \(130 + 2r_1r_2 = 196\)

or \(r_1r_2 = 33\) ... (3)

From (2) and (3), \(r_1\) and \(r_2\) are roots of:

\(t^2 - 14t + 33 = 0\)

Factoring: \((t - 11)(t - 3) = 0\)

So \(r_1 = 11\) and \(r_2 = 3\)

19

The population of a town grows at a rate of \(10\%\) per year. Find the time required for the population to triple.

2025 BASIC MATHS MEDIUM
Correct Answer
Choice (B): \(\dfrac{\log 3}{\log 1.1}\)
Detailed Solution

Let initial population = \(P_0\), Growth rate = 10% per year

Population after \(t\) years: \(P = P_0(1.1)^t\)

For population to triple: \(P = 3P_0\)

\(3P_0 = P_0(1.1)^t\) or \(3 = (1.1)^t\)

Taking logarithm: \(\log 3 = t \log 1.1\)

\(t = \dfrac{\log 3}{\log 1.1}\)

20

If \(\tan^{-1} \left( \dfrac{1-x}{1+x} \right) = \dfrac{1}{2} \tan^{-1} x\), then the value of \(x\) is

2025 TRIGONOMETRY HARD
Correct Answer
Choice (A): \(\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\)
Detailed Solution

Using the identity: \(\tan^{-1} \left( \dfrac{1-x}{1+x} \right) = \dfrac{\pi}{4} - \tan^{-1} x\) for \(x > 0\)

The equation becomes:

\(\dfrac{\pi}{4} - \tan^{-1} x = \dfrac{1}{2} \tan^{-1} x\)

\(\dfrac{\pi}{4} = \tan^{-1} x + \dfrac{1}{2} \tan^{-1} x\)

\(\dfrac{\pi}{4} = \dfrac{3}{2} \tan^{-1} x\)

\(\tan^{-1} x = \dfrac{\pi}{6}\)

\(x = \tan \dfrac{\pi}{6} = \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\)

21

For the probability density function \(f(x) = \left\{ \begin{array}{ll}\dfrac{x}{18}, & 0 \leq x \leq 6\\ 0, & \text{otherwise} \end{array} \right.\), find \(P(X > 2)\).

2025 PROBABILITY MEDIUM
Correct Answer
Choice (A): \(\dfrac{8}{9}\)
Detailed Solution

We need to find \(P(X > 2) = \int \limits_2^6 f(x) dx\)

\(P(X > 2) = \int \limits_2^6 \dfrac{x}{18} dx = \dfrac{1}{18} \int \limits_2^6 x \, dx\)

\(= \dfrac{1}{18} \left[ \dfrac{x^2}{2} \right]_2^6 = \dfrac{1}{36} [x^2]_2^6\)

\(= \dfrac{1}{36} (36 - 4) = \dfrac{32}{36} = \dfrac{8}{9}\)

22

The incomes of A, B, and C are in the ratio \(7:9:12\) and their expenditures are in the ratio \(8:9:15\). If A saves one-fourth of his income, then the ratio of their savings is:

2025 BASIC MATHS MEDIUM
Correct Answer
Choice (A): \(56:99:69\)
Detailed Solution

Let incomes of A, B, C be \(7x, 9x, 12x\)

Let expenditures be \(8y, 9y, 15y\)

A saves \(\dfrac{1}{4}\) of his income:

Hence  \(7x-8y=\dfrac{7x}{4}\)

Or  \(y= \dfrac{21x}{32}\)

Putting the value of \(y\) in terms of \(x\), we get the ratio of their savings as \( 56:99:69\)

23

Solve the differential equation \((y^2 + 3xy)dx + (x^2 + xy)dy = 0\), given that \(y = 1\) when \(x = 1\).

2025 DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS HARD
Correct Answer
Choice (A): \(\dfrac{x + 1}{x^2}\)
Detailed Solution

The equation is \((y^2 + 3xy)dx + (x^2 + xy)dy = 0\)

This is a homogeneous equation. Let \(y = vx\), so \(dy = vdx + xdv\)

Substituting:

\((v^2x^2 + 3vx^2)dx + (x^2 + vx^2)(vdx + xdv) = 0\)

\(x^2(v^2 + 3v)dx + x^2(1 + v)(vdx + xdv) = 0\)

Dividing by \(x^2\):

\((v^2 + 3v)dx + (1 + v)(vdx + xdv) = 0\)

\((v^2 + 3v + v + v^2)dx + (1 + v)xdv = 0\)

\((2v^2 + 4v)dx + (1 + v)xdv = 0\)

\(\dfrac{dx}{x} = -\dfrac{(1 + v)dv}{2v(v + 2)}\)

Integrating and applying initial condition \(x = 1, y = 1\) (so \(v = 1\)):

After integration and simplification: \(y = \dfrac{x + 1}{x^2}\)

24

The probability of answering exactly 6 out of 10 questions correctly in a true/false examination is:

2025 PROBABILITY MEDIUM
Correct Answer
Choice (C): \(0.205\)
Detailed Solution

This is a binomial distribution problem with \(n = 10\) and \(p = 0.5\).

Probability of exactly 6 correct = \(\binom{10}{6} (0.5)^6 (0.5)^4\)

\(P(X = 6) = \binom{10}{6} (0.5)^{10}\)

\(\binom{10}{6} = \dfrac{10!}{6! \cdot 4!} = 210\)

\(P(X = 6) = 210 \times \dfrac{1}{1024} = \dfrac{210}{1024} \approx 0.205\)

25

Two cubes each of volume \(64\) cm³ are joined face to face. Find the surface area of the resulting cuboid.

2025 BASIC MATHS EASY
Correct Answer
Choice (A): \(160\)
Detailed Solution

Side of cube: \(a^3 = 64\), so \(a = 4\) cm

When joined face to face, the cuboid has dimensions:

Length = \(8\) cm, Width = \(4\) cm, Height = \(4\) cm

Surface area = \(2(lb + bh + hl)\)

\(= 2(8 \times 4 + 4 \times 4 + 4 \times 8)\)

\(= 2(32 + 16 + 32) =  160\text{ cm}^2\)

26

Two trains A and B are moving towards each other with speeds \(60\) km/h and \(90\) km/h respectively. A bird flies at \(120\) km/h between them. Find the total distance travelled by the bird, if the initial distance between the trains is \(300\) km.

2025 BASIC MATHS MEDIUM
Correct Answer
Choice (A): \(240\) km
Detailed Solution

Relative speed of trains = \(60 + 90 = 150\) km/h, initital distnace between the trains is \(300\) km, hence 

Time until trains meet = \(\dfrac{300}{150}=2\) hours

Distance traveled by bird in this time = \(120 \times 2=240\)

27

Find the differential equation corresponding to the family \(y = ax^2\).

2025 DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS EASY
Correct Answer
Choice (A): \(y' = \dfrac{2y}{x}\)
Detailed Solution

Given family: \(y = ax^2\) so \(\dfrac{dy}{dx} = 2ax\)

From the original equation: \(a = \dfrac{y}{x^2}\)

Substituting:

\(\dfrac{dy}{dx} = 2 \cdot \dfrac{y}{x^2} \cdot x = \dfrac{2y}{x}\)

Therefore: \(y' = \dfrac{2y}{x}\)

28

The variance of a binomial distribution is 2 and the number of trials is 9. If the probability of success is greater then the probability of failure, then the probability of success.

2025 PROBABILITY MEDIUM
Correct Answer
Choice (A): \(\dfrac{1}{3}\)
Detailed Solution

For binomial distribution: Variance = \(np(1-p)\)

As the number of trianls is \(n = 9\) and variance = 2

\(9p(1-p) = 2\)

\(9p - 9p^2 = 2\)

\(9p^2 - 9p + 2 = 0\) or \(p = \dfrac{1}{3} \text{ or } \dfrac{2}{3}\), as probability of success is greater, so the answer is  \(\dfrac{2}{3}\).

29

If \(a = 9\), \(b = 7\), and \(c = 12\), find angle \(C\) using the cosine rule.

2025 TRIGONOMETRY EASY
Correct Answer
Choice (B): \(80.61^\circ\)
Detailed Solution

Cosine rule: \(c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab\cos C\)

\(\Rightarrow \cos C = \dfrac{a^2 + b^2 - c^2}{2ab}\)

\(\cos C = \dfrac{9^2 + 7^2 - 12^2}{2 \times 9 \times 7}\)

\(= \dfrac{81 + 49 - 144}{126} = \dfrac{-14}{126} = -\dfrac{1}{9}\)

\(C = \cos^{-1}\left(-\dfrac{1}{9}\right) \approx 96.37^\circ\)

2025 BASIC MATHS EASY
Correct Answer
Choice (A): \(6\pi\)
Detailed Solution

Area of sector = \(\dfrac{\theta}{360} \times \pi r^2\) where \(\theta\) is in degrees

Given: \(r = 6\) cm, \(\theta = 60^\circ\)

\(\text{Area} = \dfrac{60}{360} \times \pi \times 6^2\)

\(= \dfrac{1}{6} \times \pi \times 36 = 6\pi \text{ cm}^2\)
