26.  What is the area of the circle?

I. Perimeter of the circle is 88 cms.

II. Diameter of the circle is 28 cms.

(Ans : 3) Explanation :   2πr = 88 ⟹ r = 88/2πr

r = D/2 = 28/2 = 14

Either (i) or (ii) is reqd. A = πr2

 

27.  What is the rate of interest?

I. Simple interest accrued on an amount of Rs. 25,000 in two years is less than the compound interest for the same period by Rs. 250.

II. Simple interest accrued in 10 years is equal to the principal.

(Ans : 3) Explanation :   250 = 25000 [(1 + R)2 -1] – 25000 x R x 2

or R = x * 100/ x * 10  =  10%

From either of statement we can find R

I. Height of the triangle is three-fourth of the base.

II. Diagonal of the triangle is 5 metres.

(Ans : 5) Explanation :  x2 + [3/4 x]2 = 52 ⟹ x = 4,

h = 3/4 * 4 = 3

Area = 1/2 (x * 3/4 x) = 1/2 (4 *3) = 6 sq. units

Both (i) and (ii) statement are reqd.

30.  What is the father’s present age?

I. Father’s present age is five times the son’s present age.

(Ans : 5) Explanation :  Let son’s present age be x

∴ Father’s present age = 5x

ATS 5x – 5 = 15 (x – 5) ⟹ x = 7

∴ Father’s present age = 35 yrs
