Questions and answers from this day. Play today's quiz to build your streak.

Question 1 · Mensuration

A cylinder has a radius of 7 cm and a height of 2 cm. What is its volume? (Use π = 22/7)

  1. A. 462 cm³
  2. B. 616 cm³
  3. C. 308 cm³ ✓
  4. D. 88 cm³

Answer: 308 cm³. Volume = π r² h = 22/7 × 7 × 7 × 2 = 308 cm³.

Question 2 · Coordinate geometry

Find the distance between the points (−4, −5) and (36, 37).

  1. A. 59
  2. B. 58 ✓
  3. C. 116
  4. D. 57

Answer: 58. Distance = √(40² + 42²) = √3364 = 58.

Question 3 · Arithmetic progressions

The first term of an AP is 10 and the common difference is 6. What is its 17th term?

  1. A. 106 ✓
  2. B. 100
  3. C. 112
  4. D. 118

Answer: 106. nth term = a + (n − 1)d = 10 + 16 × 6 = 106.

Question 4 · Quadratic equations

What is the larger root of x² − 12x + 35 = 0?

  1. A. 2
  2. B. 5
  3. C. 12
  4. D. 7 ✓

Answer: 7. x² − 12x + 35 = (x − 7)(x − 5) = 0, so the roots are 7 and 5. The larger is 7.

Question 5 · AP sums

Find the sum of the first 14 terms of the AP that starts at 1 with common difference 6.

  1. A. 1120
  2. B. 574
  3. C. 560 ✓
  4. D. 554

Answer: 560. Sum = n/2 × (2a + (n − 1)d) = 14/2 × (2 + 78) = 560.
