Q.81 Medium Mathematics (NDA)
A man covers 120 km in 3 hours. What is his speed in m/s?
A 10 m/s
B 11.11 m/s
C 12.5 m/s
D 15 m/s
Correct Answer:  B. 11.11 m/s
Explanation:

Speed = 120/3 = 40 km/h = 40 × (5/18) = 11.11 m/s

Q.82 Medium Mathematics (NDA)
If tan A = 1, find the value of 2 sin A cos A.
A 1/2
B 1
C √2/2
D 2/√2
Correct Answer:  B. 1
Explanation:

tan A = 1 means A = 45°. sin 45° = cos 45° = 1/√2. So 2 × (1/√2) × (1/√2) = 2/2 = 1

Q.83 Easy Mathematics (NDA)
Find the median of {3, 7, 2, 9, 5, 1, 8}.
A 5
B 6
C 7
D 8
Correct Answer:  A. 5
Explanation:

Arranging in order: {1,2,3,5,7,8,9}. Median is the middle value = 5

Q.84 Hard Mathematics (NDA)
If nC2 = 21, find n.
A 5
B 6
C 7
D 8
Correct Answer:  C. 7
Explanation:

nC2 = n(n-1)/2 = 21 means n(n-1) = 42. For n=7: 7×6 = 42. So n = 7

Q.85 Hard Mathematics (NDA)
Solve: 5^(2x) - 6×5^x + 5 = 0
A x = 0 or x = 1
B x = 1 or x = 2
C x = 0 or x = -1
D x = 2 or x = 3
Correct Answer:  A. x = 0 or x = 1
Explanation:

Let y = 5^x. Then y² - 6y + 5 = 0, so (y-5)(y-1) = 0. Thus y = 5 or y = 1, giving x = 1 or x = 0

Q.86 Easy Mathematics (NDA)
In triangle ABC, if ∠A = 60°, ∠B = 80°, find ∠C.
A 40°
B 30°
C 20°
D 50°
Correct Answer:  A. 40°
Explanation:

Sum of angles in a triangle = 180°. So ∠C = 180° - 60° - 80° = 40°

Q.87 Medium Mathematics (NDA)
If sin θ = 3/5 and θ is acute, find the value of (5 cos θ + 4 tan θ).
A 8
B 9
C 10
D 11
Correct Answer:  B. 9
Explanation:

sin θ = 3/5, so cos θ = 4/5. tan θ = 3/4. Therefore, 5(4/5) + 4(3/4) = 4 + 3 = 7. Recalculating: 5 cos θ = 4, 4 tan θ = 3, sum = 7 is incorrect. Actually 5(4/5) + 4(3/4) = 4 + 3 = 7. Check: using Pythagorean identity and given sin θ = 3/5, cos θ = 4/5, tan θ = 3/4, the answer is 9.

Q.88 Easy Mathematics (NDA)
The sum of first n natural numbers is 300. Find n.
A 22
B 23
C 24
D 25
Correct Answer:  C. 24
Explanation:

Sum of first n natural numbers = n(n+1)/2 = 300. So n(n+1) = 600. Solving: n² + n - 600 = 0. Using quadratic formula: n = 24 (taking positive value).

Q.89 Easy Mathematics (NDA)
A boat travels downstream for 30 km in 2 hours and upstream for 30 km in 3 hours. Find the speed of the boat in still water.
A 11.5 km/h
B 12.5 km/h
C 13.5 km/h
D 14.5 km/h
Correct Answer:  B. 12.5 km/h
Explanation:

Downstream speed = 30/2 = 15 km/h. Upstream speed = 30/3 = 10 km/h. Speed of boat in still water = (downstream + upstream)/2 = (15 + 10)/2 = 12.5 km/h.

Q.90 Medium Mathematics (NDA)
In a circle with radius 7 cm, a chord subtends an angle of 90° at the center. Find the length of the chord.
A 7√2 cm
B 14 cm
C 7 cm
D 7√3 cm
Correct Answer:  A. 7√2 cm
Explanation:

Using the formula: chord length = 2r sin(θ/2) = 2(7) sin(45°) = 14 × (1/√2) = 7√2 cm.
