The formula to find number of diagonals (D) given total number of vertices or sides (N) is
N * (N – 3)
D = ———–
2
Using the formula, we get
1325 * 2 = N * (N – 3)
N2 – 3N – 2650 = 0
Solving the quadratic equation, we get N = 53 or -50
It is obvious that answer is 53 as number of vertices can not be negative.
Alternatively, you can derive the formula as triange has 0 diagonals, quadrangel has 2, pentagon has 5, hexagon has 9 and so on……
Hence the series is 0, 0, 0, 2, 5, 9, 14, …….. (as diagram with 1,2 or 3 vertices will have 0 diagonals).
Using the series one can arrive to the formula given above.
2a; 2a+2; 2a+4; 2a+6; 2a+8; 2a+10
t_2 + t_6 = 24 => 2a+2 + 2a + 10 = 24 => a = 3
therefore t_4 = 2(3) + 6 = 12
answer : 36 –Explaination:
X= Chickens
Y = Qty per day
X*Y*9= 12 *.9 *Y*30
x=36
Perimeter of semi circular = πr+2r
Where r is radius , π = 22/7
πr+2r= 144 (given)
(22/7)r +2r = 144
22r+14r = 144*7 (multiply both sides by 7)
36r = 144*7
r= 144*7/36 = 28
radius =28 cm
Area =( 1/2)πr^2
Area=( 1/2 )*(22/7)*28*28
= 1232cm^2
Ans : area is 1232 cm^2
55 + 70 = 125
125/14hrs = 60 mph
14 hours
24*4= x(x+4)
solve this
answer is x=8
X+4= 12
A will finish work in 8 days (4days with B and 4 days with C).
1+0^3=1
1+1^3=2
2+2^3=10
10+3^3=37
37+4^3=101
101+5^3=226

5 litre jug contains 4 litres of salt water solution
with 15% of salt, that means it has 4000*.15 = 600 ml salt
in it.
If 1.5 litres solution is spills out, remaining solution
is 2.5 litres, then the salf content is 2500*.15 = 375ml.
Now, the jug is filled to full capacity with water i.e.,
now the jug has 5 litre solution in it.
Now, the salt content is 375/5000 = 7.5%

Initially, potatoes have 99% water by weight ; which means they have 1% solid non-water content.
1% of 100 kg = 1 kg
Now even when they dehydrate,this 1kg solid mass remains constant.
It is given that finally, 98% is water by weight , which implies that 2% is non-water solid.
This means 2% of total weight = 1 kg
Total weight *2/100 = 1 kg
Therefore, total weight finally = 50 kg.
