26) The distance between the points (0, 0) and (5,12) is

A) 11
B) 12
C) 13
D) 14

View Answer
C) 13

Explanation:Distance between (0, 0) and (5, 12) is:
\sqrt{(5-0)^2 + (12-0)^2} = \sqrt{25 + 144} = \sqrt{169} = 13

27) If the slope of the line through (x,5) and (5,2) is 3, then the value of x is

A) 3
B) 4
C) 5
D) 6

View Answer
D) 6

Explanation:Slope of the line through (x, 5) and (5, 2) is 3. Find (x):
\text{Slope} = \frac{2 - 5}{5 - x} = 3 ⇒ \frac{-3}{5 - x} = 3 ⇒ -3 = 15 - 3x ⇒ x = 6

28) If △ABC~△PQR, ∠A=32°, ∠R=65° then ∠B=

A) 93°
B) 83°
C) 73°
D) 63°

View Answer
B) 83°

Explanation:If (ΔABC ~ ΔPQR), (∠A = 32°), (∠R = 65°), then (∠B = ?)
Corresponding angles are equal, so (∠C = ∠R = 65°).
Sum of angles in (ΔABC) :
∠B = 180° – ∠A – ∠C = 180° – 32° – 65° = 83°

29) The angle in the minor segment is

A) obtuse
B) acute
C) 90°
D) None of these

View Answer
A) obtuse

Explanation:The angle in the minor segment is:
An angle in the minor segment is obtuse(greater than (90°).

30) In the figure ∠BAO=30°, ∠BCO=40° then ∠AOC=
TS POLYCET 2021 PREVIOUS PAPER

A) 100°
B) 120°
C) 140°
D) 150°

View Answer
C) 140°

Explanation:In the figure, (∠BAO = 30°), (∠BCO = 40°). Then (∠AOC = ?)
From the figure (assuming (O) is the center of the circle):
– (∠AOC = 2(∠ABC) (Central angle theorem).
– (∠ABC = ∠BAO + ∠BCO = 30° + 40° = 70°).
– Thus, (∠AOC = 2 × 70° = 140°).
