Q.11Medium
In a certain code, MATHEMATICS is written as 13-1-20-8-5-13-1-20-9-3-19. How is SCIENCE written?
Answer: A
The code uses position of letters in the alphabet. S=19, C=3, I=9, E=5, N=14, C=3, E=5. Therefore SCIENCE = 19-3-9-5-14-3-5.
Q.12Medium
If facing North-East, turning 135 degrees clockwise and then 45 degrees counter-clockwise, which direction are you facing?
Answer: B
Starting North-East (45°). Turn 135° clockwise: 45° + 135° = 180° (South). Turn 45° counter-clockwise: 180° - 45° = 135° (South-East), which simplifies to East direction.
Q.13Medium
2, 5, 12, 27, 58, __, 246
Answer: A
Pattern: Each term = 2 × previous term + 1. 2→5(2×2+1), 5→12(2×5+2), 12→27(2×12+3), 27→58(2×27+4), 58→121(2×58+5), 121→246(2×121+4).
Q.14Medium
All triangles are polygons. Some polygons are rectangles. Therefore:
Answer: D
The premises don't establish a direct relationship between triangles and rectangles. While all triangles are polygons and some polygons are rectangles, we cannot conclude about the intersection of triangles and rectangles.
