A. CA = CB
B. AB = AC
C. AC < BC
D. AB = BC
উত্তর: A. CA = CB
Solution:
Distance of (x1,y1) & (x2,y2) = √{(x1 – x2)2 + (y1 – y2)2}
AB/BA = √{(1 – 5)2 + (0 – 0)2 }= √(-4)2 = √16 = 4
BC/CB = √{(5 – 3)2 + (0 – 4)2 }= √22 + 16 = √20 = 2√5
AC/CA=√{(1-3)2 + (0 – 4)2 }= √4 + 16 =√20 = 2√5

A. 4.4% increase
B. 3.2% decrease
C. 3.5% decrease
D. None of these
উত্তর: B. 3.2% decrease
Solution:
Let,
Selling price = 100
After 10% increase = (100+10)=110
After 20% decrease = (110 – 20% of 110) = 88
After 10% increase = (88 + 10% of 88) = 96.8
Final decrease = (100-96.8)=3.2%

A. 73
B. 53
C. 63
D. 83
উত্তর: C. 63
Solution:
Let,
The number = 10x + 3
ATQ,
7(x + 3) = 10x + 3
⇒ 7x + 21 = 10x + 3
⇒ 21-3 = 10x – 7x
⇒ 3x = 18
⇒ x= 6
The number = 10 × 6 + 3 = 63.

Let,
Number of wrong answers = x
ATQ,
2(60-x) -x = 39
⇒ 120 -2x-x = 39
⇒ -3x = 39-120
⇒ -3x = -81
⇒ x = 27
correct answer = (60 – 27) = 33

1/2× abc = 40
Or, abc = 80
Or, a × 2a × 10 = 80
Or, 20a2 = 80
Or, a2 = 2
Or, a = 2
And b = 2a = 2×2 = 4
39. The sum of principal and simple interest of a certain amount of money would be Tk. 460 after 3 years from now and Tk. 500 after 5 years from now. What is the total interest rate?
A. 5%
B. 12%
C. 15%
D. 20%
উত্তর: A. 5%
Solution:
(5 – 3) yr = 2 yrs interest = (500 – 460) = 40 tk
1 year interest = 40/2 = 20 tk.
3 year interest = (20 × 3) = 60 tk
Principal amount= (460 – 60) = 400 tk
Interest rate = 60/(400×3) = 0.05 = 5%

Solution:
In 1 min the wheel passes = (20 × 10) = 200m
In 60 min the wheel passes = (200 x 60) = 12,000m
We know,
1m =3.28 feet
∴ 12,000m=(3.28 × 12,000) = 39360 feet

A. 16cm
B. 18cm
C. 20cm
D. 22cm
উত্তর: B. 18cm
Solution:
Let,
Length and breadth of the rectangle= x, y
So, area = xy
Perimeter = 2(x+y)
ATQ,
2(x+y)/y = 5
Or, 2x + 2y = 5y
Or, 2x = 3y
Or, y = 2x/3
Now,
xy = 216
Or, x × 2x/3 = 216
Or, 2×2 = 648
Or, x2 = 324
Or, x = 18

A. 9
B. 16
C. 24
D. 26
উত্তর: D. 26
Solution:
Given,
Perimeter of the square = 24
So, side of the square = 24/4=6
Area = 62 = 36
Let,
Length of the rectangle = x
ATQ,
4x = 36
Or, x= 9
So, perimeter of the rectangle = 2(9+4) = 26
47. In a class of 120 students, 70 percent can speak only Bengali and the rest can speak English. If 25 percent of those in the class who can speak English can also speak Bengali, how many of the students in the class can speak Bengali?
A. 39
B. 48
C. 84
D. 93
উত্তর: D. 93
Solution:
Only speak bangla = 120 × 70/100 = 84
Speak English = 120× 30/100 = 36
Now,
25% of 36 = 36× 25/100 =9 can also speak bangla
So, total bangla speaking student =(84 +9) = 93
48. A lamp is manufactured to sell for $35.00, which yields a profit of 25% of cost. If the profit is to be reduced to 15% of cost, what will be the new retail price of the lamp?
A. $31.50
B. $28.00
C. $21.00
D. $32.20
উত্তর: D. $32.20
Solution:
In 25% profit,
If selling price 125 then cost = 100
So, when selling price 35 then cost = (100×35)/125 = 28
In 15% profit,
If cost is 100 then selling price = 115
So, when cost is 28, then selling price = (115×28)/100 = 32.20
49. In triangle ABC, AB = AC. All of the following statements are true except

Solution:
Given,
AB = AC
Or, BC + AB = BC + AC [Adding BC to both sides]
So, BC + AC > AB + BC can’t be.

A. 3/15
B. 4/15
C. 3/13
D. 4/13
উত্তর: C. 3/13
Solution:
green balls = (8 – 1) = 7
blue balls = (4 – 1) = 3
white balls = 3
possibility of getting a blue ball = 3/(7+3+3) = 3/13

53. Three angles of a triangle are in proportion 5: 6:7. Then what is the difference in degrees between the biggest and the smallest angles?
A. 10°
B. 20°
C. 25°
D. 30°
উত্তর: B. 20°
Solution:
Sum of 3 angles of a triangle = 180°
Sum of ratio = 5+6+7 = 18
So, the larger angle = 180° × 7/18 = 70°
And, the smaller angle = 180° × 5/18 = 50°
Difference = 70° – 50° = 20°
54. If the length of each of the sides of three square garden’s plots is increased by 50 percent, by what percent is the sum of the areas of the three plots increased?
A. 375%
B. 200%
C. 150%
D. 125%
উত্তর: D. 125%
Solution:
Let,
Side of a square = 100
So, area = (100)2 = 10000
Area of 3 square = 3× 10000 = 30000
After 50% increase side of a square becomes = (100 + 50% of 100) = 150
So, area = 1502 = 22500
Area of 3 square = 22500 × 3 = 67500
Area increases = (67500 – 30000) = 37500
So, percentage of increase = (37500×100)/30000 = 125%
55. A manufacturer sells three products i.e. A, B and C. Product A costs 200 and sells for 250. Product B costs 150 and sells for 180. Product C costs 100 and sells for 110. On which product, he has maximum percentage of profit?
A. B only
B. A and B both
C. A only
D. C only
উত্তর: C. A only
Solution:
Product A’s percentage of profit = {(250-200)/200}×100 = 25%
Product B’s percentage of profit = {(180-150)/150}×100 = 20%
Product C’s percentage of profit = {(110-100)/100}×100 = 10%
56. A farmer has two rectangular fields. The larger field has twice the length and four times the width of the smaller field. If the smaller field has area K, then the area of the larger field is greater than the area of the smaller field by what amount?
A. 2K
B. 5K
C. 6K
D. 7K
উত্তর: D. 7K
Solution:
Let,
Length of smaller field = x
So, length of larger field = 2x
Again,
Width of smaller field = y
So, width of larger filed = 4y
Area of smaller field = xy = K
Area of larger field = 2x × 4y = 8xy = 8K
Difference = 8K – K = 7K
