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

Question 1 · Linear equations

If x + y = 12 and x − y = 10, what is x?

  1. A. 22
  2. B. 11 ✓
  3. C. 1
  4. D. 12

Answer: 11. Add the two equations: 2x = 12 + 10 = 22, so x = 11.

Question 2 · Trigonometry

Find the value of sin 30° × cos 60°.

  1. A. 1/4 ✓
  2. B. 5/4
  3. C. 3/2
  4. D. 1

Answer: 1/4. Use sin 30° = ½, cos 60° = ½, tan 45° = 1, sin 90° = 1 and cos 0° = 1. sin 30° × cos 60° = 1/4.

Question 3 · Pythagoras theorem

A right-angled triangle has legs of 14 cm and 48 cm. How long is the hypotenuse?

  1. A. 50 cm ✓
  2. B. 100 cm
  3. C. 49 cm
  4. D. 34 cm

Answer: 50 cm. c² = 14² + 48² = 196 + 2304 = 2500, so c = 50 cm.

Question 4 · AP sums

Find the sum of the first 10 terms of the AP that starts at 5 with common difference 5.

  1. A. 275 ✓
  2. B. 270
  3. C. 250
  4. D. 285

Answer: 275. Sum = n/2 × (2a + (n − 1)d) = 10/2 × (10 + 45) = 275.

Question 5 · Quadratic equations

What is the larger root of x² − 3x + 2 = 0?

  1. A. 4
  2. B. 1
  3. C. 2 ✓
  4. D. 3

Answer: 2. x² − 3x + 2 = (x − 2)(x − 1) = 0, so the roots are 2 and 1. The larger is 2.
