Question 34.

A chart placed in a worksheet is called

  1.    formatting chart
  2.    embedded chart
  3.    aligning chart
  4.    hanging chart
  5.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> embedded chart
In Microsoft Excel, a chart placed in a worksheet is called an embedded chart. An embedded chart is a chart that is placed on the same worksheet as the data it represents. It is a visual representation of data that is used to make it easier to understand and interpret.
Here are some key characteristics of an embedded chart:
  • An embedded chart is directly linked to the data in the worksheet. If the data changes, the chart will automatically update to reflect the changes.
  • An embedded chart can be moved, resized, and formatted just like any other object in Excel.
  • An embedded chart can be used to display a wide variety of chart types, including column, bar, line, pie, and scatter charts.
  • An embedded chart can be created using the Chart Wizard or by selecting the data and choosing the chart type from the Insert tab.
Other options mentioned in the question are not correct:
  • A formatting chart is not a term used in Excel. Formatting refers to the process of changing the appearance of cells or objects in a worksheet, but it is not specific to charts.
  • Aligning chart is also not a term used in Excel. Alignment refers to the positioning of cells or objects in relation to each other, but it is not specific to charts.
  • A hanging chart is not a term used in Excel. It is possible that this term is used in a different context, but it is not related to charts in Excel.
Formula:
No formula is required to answer this question.
In conclusion, the correct answer is B. Embedded chart, as it is a chart placed on the same worksheet as the data it represents, and it is directly linked to the data in the worksheet.

Answer: Option B. ->  Active
Question 38.

Cell address A4 in a formula means it is a

  1.    mixed cell reference
  2.    absolute cell reference
  3.    relative cell reference
  4.    All of these
  5.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> relative cell reference
Question 39.

Cell address $A$4 in a formula means it is a

  1.    mixed cell reference
  2.    absolute cell reference
  3.    relative cell reference
  4.    All of these
  5.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option E. -> None of these
  • Cell address A4 in a formula doesn't fit into any of the three standard types of cell references: absolute, relative, and mixed.
  • Absolute cell reference: In an absolute cell reference, both the column and row are fixed, and the $ symbol is used to lock the cell. For example, $A$4 is an absolute reference to cell A4, and if it is copied to another cell, it will remain the same.
  • Relative cell reference: In a relative cell reference, the cell is referred to by its position relative to the cell containing the formula. For example, if the formula is in cell B2 and it refers to cell A2, the reference is relative, and if it is copied to cell C3, it will refer to cell B3.
  • Mixed cell reference: In a mixed cell reference, one part of the cell reference is fixed, while the other part is relative. For example, $A2 is a mixed reference that is fixed in column A and relative in row 2.
  • Cell address A4 in a formula doesn't contain any $ symbol, so it is not an absolute or mixed cell reference, and it doesn't change when copied. Also, it doesn't refer to a position relative to the formula cell, so it's not a relative cell reference.
  • Therefore, none of the given options applies to cell address A4 in a formula, and the correct answer is option E, None of these.
Question 40.

Cell address $A4 in a formula means it is a

  1.    mixed cell reference
  2.    absolute cell reference
  3.    relative cell reference
  4.    All of these
  5.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> mixed cell reference
The cell address $A4 in a formula means it is a mixed cell reference.
In Microsoft Excel, cell references can be specified in three ways: absolute, relative, and mixed.
  • Absolute Cell Reference: A cell reference with a dollar sign ($) before both the column and row identifiers. For example, $A$1. When a formula with an absolute cell reference is copied to another cell, the reference remains the same.
  • Relative Cell Reference: A cell reference without any dollar signs. For example, A1. When a formula with a relative cell reference is copied to another cell, the reference changes based on the relative position of the cells.
  • Mixed Cell Reference: A cell reference with a dollar sign before either the column or the row identifier, but not both. For example, $A1 or A$1. When a formula with a mixed cell reference is copied to another cell, one part of the reference remains constant while the other changes based on the relative position of the cells.
In the given cell address $A4, the dollar sign ($) appears before the column identifier A but not before the row identifier 4. This indicates that the column reference is fixed while the row reference is relative. So, when the formula is copied to another row, the row reference will change, but the column reference will remain the same.
Therefore, the answer is option A, mixed cell reference.
To summarize, we identified the different types of cell references in Excel and explained that the given cell address is a mixed cell reference because it has a fixed column reference and a relative row reference.
