2) α = 60°; β = 30°

3) Put θ = 45°

7) +10,+20,+40,+80,+160,+320

8)

Squaring both sides

Cubing both sides


9) For a cube, edges = a = 12, faces = b = 6, corners = c = 8 For a pyramid, edges = a = 8, faces = b = 5, corners = c = 5 So, a = b + c is neither true for cube nor for pyramid.

10)


13) Annual installment is


14)
To minimize the number of pens common ratio is 1. So, minimum number of pens = 20 + 15 + 12 + 10 = 57

15) Surface area of the cube = 24 sq cm
Surface area of the cuboid = 22 sq cm
Total surface area to be painted = 24 + 22 = 46 sq cm

17) When 1000 soldiers consume for 10 days, then food supply is left for 1000 soldiers for 20 days. Now as the number of soldiers are doubled (When 1000 more soldiers joined the garrison) so food lasts for 20/2 = 10 days.

19) is minimized when θ = 45°
