  3. 24
  4. 24.5
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: What is the measure of the radius of the circle that circumscribes a triangle whose sides measure 9, 40 and 41?

Solution:

First of all we can notice that a triangle whose sides measure 9, 40 and 41 is a right triangle because 92 + 402 = 412

A right triangle inscribed in a circle always has its hypotenuse as the diameter of the circle. Conversely, if the diameter of a circle forms one side of a triangle inscribed in the circle, that triangle is a right triangle.

Thus, the diameter of the circle is equal to the hypotenuse of the triangle, which is 41. Therefore, the radius of the circle is = Diameter/2
= 41/2
= 20.5

ঘনকাকৃতির পাত্রের বাহুর দৈর্ঘ্য, a = 8 m
যেহেতু সম্পূর্ণ বাইরের পৃষ্ঠতলে রং করতে হবে, তাই রং করার ক্ষেত্রফল ঘনকটির সমগ্র পৃষ্ঠতলের ক্ষেত্রফলের সমান হবে।

ঘনকের সমগ্র পৃষ্ঠতলের ক্ষেত্রফল = 6a2
∴ রং করার ক্ষেত্রফল = 6 × 82
⇒ রং করার ক্ষেত্রফল = 6 × 64
⇒ রং করার ক্ষেত্রফল = 384 বর্গমিটার।

এখন, প্রতি বর্গমিটারে রং করার খরচ = 25 টাকা
সুতরাং, মোট খরচ = (রং করার ক্ষেত্রফল) × (প্রতি বর্গমিটারে খরচ)
⇒ মোট খরচ = 384 × 25
⇒ মোট খরচ = 9600 টাকা।

অতএব, রং করতে মোট খরচ হবে 9600 টাকা।

ব্যাখ্যা
Question: A boat can row 180 km upstream , with the speed of still water in 30 kmph and the difference between time taken upstream and downstream is 2.5 hours. Find the speed of the stream.

Solution:
Speed of boat in still water = 30 kmph.
Speed of stream = x kmph

ATQ,
180/(30 - x) - 180/(30 + x) = 2.5
⇒ {180(30 + x) - 180(30 - x)}/(900 - x2) = 2.5 
⇒ 5400 + 180x - 5400 + 180x = 2.5 × (900 - x2)
⇒ 360x = 2250 - 2.5x2
⇒ 2.5x2 + 360x - 2250 = 0
⇒ x2 + 144x - 900 = 0
⇒ x2 + 150x - 6x - 900 = 0
⇒ x(x + 150) - 6(x + 150)
⇒ (x + 150)(x - 6) = 0
∴ x = 6, - 150
Speed cannot be negative so the speed of the stream is 6 kmph.

Question: A contractor employs 45 persons to do a job in 40 days. After 10 days, it was found that only one-sixth of the work was finished. How many more persons are to be employed to finish the job as per schedule?

Solution:
দেওয়া আছে:
মোট লোক = 45 জন
নির্ধারিত সময় = 40 দিন
10 দিনে সম্পন্ন কাজ = 1/6 অংশ

ধরি, সম্পূর্ণ কাজ = 1 একক

45 জন লোক 10 দিনে করে = 1/6 অংশ কাজ
∴ 45 জন লোক 1 দিনে করে = (1/6) ÷ 10 = 1/60 অংশ
∴ 1 জন লোক 1 দিনে করে = (1/60) ÷ 45 = 1/2700 অংশ

অবশিষ্ট কাজ = 1 - 1/6 = 5/6 অংশ
অবশিষ্ট সময় = 40 - 10 = 30 দিন

∴ অবশিষ্ট 5/6 অংশ কাজ 30 দিনে করতে হবে

∴ প্রতিদিনের প্রয়োজনীয় কাজের হার = (5/6) ÷ 30 অংশ
= 5/180 = 1/36 অংশ

এখন,
প্রতিদিন 1/2700 অংশ কাজ করে 1 জন
∴ 1 অংশ কাজ করে = 1 ÷ (1/2700) জন
∴ 1/36 অংশ কাজ করে = (2700/36) জন
= 75 জন

∴ অতিরিক্ত লোকের প্রয়োজন = 75 - 45 = 30 জন

  3. 71.11 km/hr
  4. 82.6 km/hr
ব্যাখ্যা

Question: A man on tour travels 160 km by car at 64 km/hr and another 160 km by bus at 80 km/hr. The average speed for the whole journey is 

Solution: 
The total distance traveled is the sum of distances traveled by car and bus, which is 160 km + 160 km = 320 km.

Time taken for the car journey = Distance ÷ Speed = 160 km ÷ 64 km/hr = 2.5 hours
Time taken for the bus journey = Distance ÷ Speed = 160 km ÷ 80 km/hr = 2 hours

The total time taken for the entire journey is 2.5 hours (car) + 2 hours (bus) = 4.5 hours.

Average speed = Total distance traveled ÷ Total time taken
⇒ 320 km ÷ 4.5 hours ≈ 71.11 km/hr

If 6th March, 2010 is Saturday, what was the day of the week on 6th March, 2008? 
  1. Wednesday
  2. Thursday
  3. Friday
  4. Saturday
ব্যাখ্যা

Question: If 6th March, 2010 is Saturday, what was the day of the week on 6th March, 2008? 

Solution:
From 6 March 2008 to 6 March 2009
⋅Although 2008 is a leap year, 29 February 2008 is before 6th March, so that extra day does not fall in this interval.
So this interval has 365 days → 1 odd day.
From 6 March 2009 to 6 March 2010
⋅ 2009 is a normal year → 365 days → 1 odd day.

Total odd days between 6th March 2008 and 6th March 2010
= 1 + 1 odd days
= 2 odd days. 

Given,
6th March 2010 is Saturday
∴ 2 days before Saturday is Thursday.

So, 6th March 2008 was Thursday.

Question: A shopkeeper blends two varieties of rice from two different regions, one variety costing tk 50 per kg and the other tk 30 per kg in the ratio 3 : 2. He sells the blended rice at tk 45 per kg. Find the profit or loss percent.

Solution:
Let 3 kg of the first variety be mixed with 2 kg of second variety.
Then total cost price of 5 kg of rice = (50 × 3) + (30 × 2) = tk 210
Selling price of 5 kg of rice = (45 × 5) = tk 225
∴ Profit = tk (225 - 210) = tk 15

∴ Percentage of profit = (15 × 100)/210 = 7.14%

A sum of money becomes 8/5 of itself in 5 years at a certain rate of interest. What is the rate of the interest?
  1. ক) 9%
  2. খ) 7%
  3. গ) 10%
  4. ঘ) 12%
  5. ঙ) 5%
ব্যাখ্যা

Let the sum of money be P(which is the principal value) and rate of interest be R.
According to the question,
Amount (principal +simple interest) = 8P/5
Time (T) = 5 years
Simple interest (SI) = PRT/100
SI = 5PR/100
Amount = P + SI
8P/5 = P + (5PR/100)
8P/5 = P(100 + 5R)/100
160 = 100 + 5R
5R = 60
R = 12
Therefore, rate of interest = 12% p.a.

Alternative Method:
Given A = 8/5p (8/5 of the sum) .
Time = 5years .
Let the sum be P = 100.
Then, the amount = 8/5p = (value of p is 100)
= 8/5 × 100
= 160 .
S. I. = A-P
= 160 - 100
= 60 .
Hence,
Rate = S.I. × 100/P × T
= 60 × 100/100 × 5
= 12% p.a.

The price of 10 chairs is equal to that of 4 tables. The price of 15 chairs and 2 tables together is Tk. 4000. The total price of 12 chairs and 3 tables is:
  1. Tk.3000
  2. Tk.3200
  3. Tk.3600
  4. Tk.3900
ব্যাখ্যা
Let the cost of a chair and that of table be Rs. x and Rs. y respectively.
Then,10x = 4y or y = 5x/2
∴15x + 2y = 4000
⇒15x + 2 × 5x/2 = 4000
⇒20x = 4000
∴ x = 200
So, y = 5 × 200/2 = 500
Hence, the cost of 12 chairs and 3 tables = 12x + 3y = Tk. (2400 + 1500) = Tk.3900

What is the angle between the hour and minute hands of a clock when it is 20 minutes past 4?
  1. 10°
  2. 7.5°
  3. 12.5°
ব্যাখ্যা

Question: What is the angle between the hour and minute hands of a clock when it is 20 minutes past 4?

Solution:
20 minutes past 4 অর্থাৎ, 4 টা 20 মিনিট।
= 4 + (20/60) ঘন্টা
= 4 + (1/3) ঘন্টা
= 13/3 ঘন্টা

আমরা জানি,
ঘণ্টার কাঁটা 12 ঘণ্টায় 360° ঘোরে।
∴ 1 ঘণ্টায় ঘোরে = 360°/12 = 30°
∴ 13/3 ঘন্টায় ঘোরে = (30° × 13)/3
= 390°/3 = 130°

আবার,
মিনিটের কাঁটা 60 মিনিটে 360° ঘোরে।
∴ 1 মিনিটে ঘোরে = 360°/60 = 6°
∴ 20 মিনিটে ঘোরে = 20 × 6° = 120°

∴ ঘড়ির কাঁটা দুটির মধ্যবর্তী কোণ = | 130° - 120° | = 10°

Question: A mixture of 200 liters of wine and water contains 30% water. How much more water should be added so that water becomes 40% of the new mixture?

Solution:
Number of liters of water in 200 liters of the mixture = 30% of 200 = 30/100 × 200 = 60 liters.

Let P liters of water added to the mixture to make water 25% of the new mixture.

Total amount of water becomes (60 + P) and total volume of mixture is (200 + P).
(60 + P) = 40/100 × (200 + P)
300 + 5P = 400 + 2P
=> P = 33.33 liters.

Question: A mixture contains two liquids 'A' and 'B' in the ratio 5 : 3. If 8 litres of the mixture is withdrawn and replaced with 8 litres of 'A', the ratio becomes 2 : 1. What was the initial quantity of 'B'?

Solution:
ধরি, প্রাথমিক মিশ্রণের পরিমাণ ছিল 8x লিটার।
যেখানে A এর পরিমাণ = 5x লিটার এবং B এর পরিমাণ = 3x লিটার।

8 লিটার মিশ্রণ তুলে নেওয়ার পর,
মিশ্রণে A এর পরিমাণ = 5x - (5/8) × 8 = 5x - 5 লিটার।
মিশ্রণে B এর পরিমাণ = 3x - (3/8) × 8 = 3x - 3 লিটার।

নতুন 8 লিটার 'A' যোগ করার পর,
A এর নতুন পরিমাণ = (5x - 5) + 8 = 5x + 3 লিটার।

প্রশ্নানুযায়ী, নতুন অনুপাত,
⇒ (5x + 3) / (3x - 3) = 2/1
⇒ 1(5x + 3) = 2(3x - 3)
⇒ 5x + 3 = 6x - 6
⇒ 3 + 6 = 6x - 5x
⇒ 9 = x

সুতরাং, প্রাথমিকভাবে B এর পরিমাণ ছিল = 3x = 3 × 9 = 27 লিটার।

Question: The captain of a cricket team of 11 members is 26 years old, and the wicket-keeper is three years older than the captain. If the ages of captain and wicketkeeper are excluded, the average age of the remaining players of the team is one year less than the average age of the whole team. What is the average age of the team?

Solution:
Let, the average age of the whole team by = x years.
Total age of the whole team = 11x years
Age of the captain = 26 years
Age of the wiket-keeper = (26 + 3) = 29 years

The average age of the remaining players after excluding the ages of captain and wicketkeeper = x - 1
∴ Total age of the players without the ages of captain and wicketkeeper = 9(x - 1)

Now,
11x - (26 + 29) = 9(x - 1)
⇒ 11x - 55 = 9x - 9
⇒ 11x - 9x = - 9 + 55
⇒ 2x = 46
∴ x = 23 Years.

Question: What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 20x - 2y = 6? 

Solution:
দেওয়া আছে,
20x - 2y = 6
⇒ - 2y = - 20x + 6
⇒ y = {(- 20)/(- 2)}x + 6/(- 2)
⇒ y = 10x - 3

এখানে, প্রদত্ত রেখার ঢাল, m1= 10

আমরা জানি, দুটি রেখা পরস্পর লম্ব (Perpendicular) হলে তাদের ঢালদ্বয়ের গুণফল  -1 হয়।

ধরি, লম্ব রেখার ঢাল m2
অর্থাৎ, m1 × m2 = -1

তাহলে,
10 × m2 = -1
⇒ m2= -1/10
∴m2 = (-1/10)

∴ লম্ব রেখার ঢাল (-1/10)।

Question: The slope of the line 4x + 8y = 16 is not the same as the slope of which one of the following lines?

Solution:
প্রথমে, প্রদত্ত রেখাটির ঢাল নির্ণয় করতে হবে। রেখাটির সমীকরণকে y = mx + c আকারে রূপান্তর করতে হবে। এখানে 'm' হলো ঢাল (Slope)।

প্রদত্ত রেখার সমীকরণ: 4x + 8y = 16
⇒ 8y = -4x + 16
⇒ y = (-4/8)x + (16/8)
⇒ y = (-1/2)x + 2
∴ এই রেখাটির ঢাল (m) হলো -1/2

এবার, প্রদত্ত অপশনগুলোর প্রত্যেকটির ঢাল নির্ণয় করি:

(ক) x + 2y = 8
⇒ 2y = -x + 8
⇒ y = (-1/2)x + 4
∴ ঢাল, m = -1/2

(খ) 2x + 4y = 12
⇒ 4y = -2x + 12
⇒ y = (-2/4)x + (12/4)
⇒ y = (-1/2)x + 3
∴ ঢাল, m = -1/2

(গ) y = 2x + 5
∴ ঢাল, m = 2

(ঘ) y = - x/2 + 3
⇒ y = (-1/2)x + 3
∴ ঢাল, m = -1/2

সুতরাং, দেখা যাচ্ছে যে শুধুমাত্র অপশন (গ) এর রেখার ঢাল মূল রেখার ঢাল থেকে ভিন্ন।

Question: In a 300 m race, A beats B by 30 m and C by 40 m. In a race of 540 m, B will beat C by -

Solution:
Given that, 
A : B = 300 : 270 
and A : C = 300 : 260

A/B = 300/270
and A/C = 300/260

∴ B/C = (B/A) × (A/C)
⇒(270/300) × (300/260) = 270/260
⇒ (270 × 2)/(260 × 2) = 540/520
⇒ B/C = 540/520

∴ B : C = 540 : 520

∴ In a 360 m race, B beats C by (540 - 520) m = 20 m

A car moves 550 meters in a minute, and a train travels 72 km in 45 minutes. How much faster is one than the other?
  1. 45 km/h
  2. 54 km/h
  3. 63 km/h
  4. 74 km/h
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: A car moves 550 meters in a minute, and a train travels 72 km in 45 minutes. How much faster is one than the other?

Solution:
Speed of the car = Distance/Time
= (550/1) meters/minute
= (550/1000)/(1/60) km/h
= (550 × 60)/1000 km/h
= 33 km/h

Speed of the train = Distance/Time
= (72/45) km/minute
= 72/(45/60) km/h
= (72 × 60)/45 km/h
= 96 km/h

∴ Difference in speed between the train and the bus = (96 - 33) km/h = 63 km/h

(৪৫ লিটার মিশ্রণের মধ্যে দুধ ও পানির অনুপাত ৪:১, তাহলে ৩:২ অনুপাত করার জন্য কতটা পানি আরও যোগ করতে হবে?)

Solution:
৪৫ লিটার মিশ্রণে দুধের পরিমাণ ৪৫ × (৪/৫) লিটার = ৩৬ লিটার
অতএব, মিশ্রণে পানির পরিমাণ = ৪৫ - ৩৬ লিটার = ৯ লিটার

ধরা যাক,
মিশ্রণে x লিটার পানি যোগ করা হয়েছে।
তাহলে,
৩৬ / (৯ + x) = ৩ / ২
⇒ ৭২ = ২৭ + ৩x
⇒ ৩x = ৪৫

অতএব, x = ১৫

  1. (x - y + 42)/2 
  2. (x - y + 38)/2 
  3. (x - y )/2 
  4. (x + y )/2 
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: If Ehsan was 22 years old x years ago and Shaon will be 24 years old in y years, what was the average of their ages 4 years ago?

Solution: 
 Ehsan was 22 years old x years ago
present age = x + 22 years
4 years ago, his age was = x + 22 - 4 = x + 18 years

Shaon will be 24 years old in y years
4 years ago, his age was = 24 - y - 4
= 20 - y years 

average 4 years ago = (x + 18 + 20 - y)/2
= (x - y + 38)/2

Question: If (x + 3) is a factor of 3x2 + ax + b, then find the value of 3a - b.

Solution:

According to the question,
⇒ (x + 3) = 0
⇒ x = - 3
Now, substitute the value of x = - 3 in the function 3x2 + ax + b and then equate to 0.
⇒ 3(- 3)2 - 3a + b = 0
⇒ 27 - 3a + b = 0
⇒ - 3a + b = - 27 
⇒ - (3a - b) = - 27
⇒ 3a - b = 27

Question: Mr. Anwar deposits Tk. 7000 in a bank at 10% interest rate compounded annually. At the end of the three year, the total amount including interest will become?

Solution: 
Given,
Principal, P = 7000 Tk.
Rate of interest, r = 10% = 10/100 = 1/10
Time, n = 3 years.

We know,
Compound Amount = P (1 + r)n
= 7000 × (1 + 1/10)3
= 7000 × (11/10)3
= 7000 × (11/10) × (11/10) × (11/10)
= 9317

The sum of the ages of a mother and daughter is 56 years. Four years ago, the mother was five times as old as her daughter. Find the present age of the daughter is?
  1. 12 years
  2. 18 years
  3. 8 years
  4. 15 years
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: The sum of the ages of a mother and daughter is 56 years. Four years ago, the mother was five times as old as her daughter. Find the present age of the daughter is?

Solution:
Let daughter's present age = x years
Then mother's present age = (56 - x) years

Four years ago:
Daughter's age = x - 4
Mother's age = (56 - x) - 4 = 52 - x

ATQ,
⇒ 52 - x = 5(x - 4)
⇒ 52 - x = 5x - 20
⇒ 52 + 20 = 5x + x
⇒ 72 = 6x
∴ x = 12

So the daughter's present age is 12 years.

A 150-liter mixture contains 60% milk and the rest water. How many liters of water should be evaporated to make the mixture 75% milk?
  1. 25 liters
  2. 30 liters
  3. 40 liters
  4. 45 liters
  5. 50 liters
ব্যাখ্যা
Question: A 150-liter mixture contains 60% milk and the rest water. How many liters of water should be evaporated to make the mixture 75% milk?

Solution:
There is 60% milk in 150 liters of mixture,
That means, (60/100) × 150 = 90 liters of milk.
∴ The amount of water = 150 - 90 = 60 liters.

Let,
x liters of water need to be evaporated.
Then the new volume of the solution will be (150 - x) liters.

ATQ,
90/(150 - x) = 75/100
⇒ 90/(150 - x) = 3/4
⇒ 3(150 - x) = 360
⇒ 450 - 3x = 360
⇒ 3x = 450 - 360
⇒ 3x = 90
⇒ x = 90/3
∴ x = 30

∴ 30 liters of water need to be evaporated so that the milk concentration becomes 75%.
