The formula to find number of diagonals (D) given total number of vertices or sides (N) is
N * (N – 3)
D = ———–
2
Using the formula, we get
1325 * 2 = N * (N – 3)
N2 – 3N – 2650 = 0
Solving the quadratic equation, we get N = 53 or -50
It is obvious that answer is 53 as number of vertices can not be negative.
Alternatively, you can derive the formula as triange has 0 diagonals, quadrangel has 2, pentagon has 5, hexagon has 9 and so on……
Hence the series is 0, 0, 0, 2, 5, 9, 14, …….. (as diagram with 1,2 or 3 vertices will have 0 diagonals).
Using the series one can arrive to the formula given above.
ans : 101 bcoz after every two matches one team is eliminated…so to eliminate 50 team there will be require 100 matches…+ 1 for deciding winner…
answer can be 1,2,3,4 can’t be determined exact number
just explaining a case:
there are 10 people in the party.
name of people no. of people with they made handshake list of those people(this can vary but showing the possibility)
1 1 9
2 2 8, 9
3 3 7, 8, 9
4 4 6, 7, 8, 9
5 5 6, 7, 8, 9. 10
6 6 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10
7 7 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10
8 8 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10
9 9 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10
10 4 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
jack got 9 different answer so jack can be either 4th number or 10th number and jack’s wife know jack very well so she can’t have handshake with jack so if 4th is jack then she can’t be handshake with 6,7,8,9, in this case she can be 1,2,3, 5, 10 and now depending upon which no is jack’s wife she can have hand shake with- 1- 4 people, and if jack is number 10 then she can’t be 5,6,7,8,9 so again depending upon her number she can handshake with people in range of 1-4
one cat kill one rat six minutes
so 1 cat kill 100 rat willbe needed 6*100=600minutes
then 100 rates kill 50minutes means then 600/50=12
so the answer is 12
answer is 28
>2+8=10
>reverse of 28 is 82
>subtract 28 from 82
>82-28=54
the number is 28

28th February,1956
A will finish work in 8 days (4days with B and 4 days with C).
ans is C.
let H be present age of husaband.W be present age of wife.
H+W=91.
now let diff between their ages be x.that is H-W=x.
now when husband is W yaers old, his wife must be W-x years
old.and it is given that H=2(W-x). so 2W-H=2x. and H-
W=x.eliminating x we get 4W=3H. but H+W=91, so solving thse
two H=52 W=39.
