Question 251.

What will come in place of question mark in each of the following questions.   `sqrt(86.49) + sqrt(5 + (?)^2) = 12.3`


  1.    1.2
  2.    2
  3.    2.5
  4.    3
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 2

Sol.   `sqrt(86.49) + sqrt(5 + x^2) = 12.3`

         Then ,` 9.3 + sqrt(5 + x^2) = 12.3`   

         `hArr      sqrt(5 + x^2) = 12.3 - 9.3`

         `hArr       sqrt(5 + x^2) = 3`

          `hArr       5 + x^2 = 9`

           `hArr       x^2 = 9 - 5 = 4`

            `hArr        x^2 = 4`

             `hArr       x = sqrt(4)`

           `hArr          x = 2`



Question 252.

What will come in place of question mark in each of the following questions .`sqrt(32.4/?) = 2`


  1.    7
  2.    7.8
  3.    8.1
  4.    8.3
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 8.1

Sol.      Let  `sqrt(32.4/x)  = 2`

             Then , `32.4/x = 4`

`hArr      4x = 32.4`

  `hArr       x = 8.1 `        

       



Question 253.

What is the square  root of 0.0009  ?


  1.    0.3
  2.    0.03
  3.    0.003
  4.    0.02
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 0.03

Sol.     `sqrt(0.0009)`

             = `sqrt(9/10000)`

             = `sqrt(9)/sqrt(10000)`

             = ` 3/100`     = 0.03   


Question 254.

Find the value of  `sqrt(1 9/16)`


  1.    `1 1/3`
  2.    `1 2/3`
  3.    `1 1/4`
  4.    `1 2/5`
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> `1 1/4`

Sol.       `sqrt(1 9/16)`

          = `sqrt(25/16)`

          = `5/4 =  1 1/4`


Question 255.

If a * b * c = `(sqrt((a + 2) ( b + 3)))/(c + 1)` then find the value of  6 * 15 * 3.


  1.    3
  2.    2
  3.    4
  4.    5
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 3

Sol.    6 * 15 * 3 = `(sqrt((6+ 2) ( 15 + 3)))/(3 + 1)`

                           = `sqrt(8 xx 18)/4`

                          = `sqrt(144)/4` =  `12/4` = 3.


Question 256.

Evaluate :  `sqrt(248+ sqrt(51 + sqrt(169)))`


  1.    16
  2.    15
  3.    14
  4.    13
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 16

Sol.    Given expression  = `sqrt(248 +sqrt(51 +sqrt(169)))`

                                         = `sqrt(248 + sqrt(51 + 13))`

                                         = `sqrt(248 + sqrt(64))`

                                          = ` sqrt(248 + 8)`

                                           = `sqrt(256)`

                                            = 16. 


Question 257.

What is the smallest number by which 3600 be divided to make it a perfect cube ?


  1.    9
  2.    50
  3.    300
  4.    450
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> 450

3600 = `2^3 xx 5^2 xx 3^2 xx `2.

To make it a perfect cube , it must be divided by `5^2 xx 3^2 xx 2 ` i.e. , 450.



Question 258.

By what least number 675 be multiplied to obtain a number which is a perfect cube ?


  1.    5
  2.    6
  3.    7
  4.    8
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 5

675 = 5 x 5 x 3 x 3 x 3

To make it  a perfect cube, it must be multiplied by 5.


Question 259.

The largest four-digit number which is a perfect cube, is:


  1.    8000
  2.    9261
  3.    9999
  4.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 9261

Clearly , 9261 is a perfect cube satisfying the given property.


Question 260.

`3sqrt(sqrt(.000064))` = ?


  1.    .02
  2.    0.2
  3.    2
  4.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 0.2

`sqrt(.000064)` = `sqrt(64/10^6)` =  `8/10^3` = `8/1000` = .008

`:.`  `3sqrt(sqrt (.000064))` = `3sqrt(.008)` = `3sqrt(8/1000)` = `2/10` = 0.2
