Q51.
What is the value of 9409 − 1849?
9409 − 1849 का मान क्या है?
  1. A54
  2. B68
  3. C78
  4. D88
Show answer

Concept: Find each square root by unit digit + nearest square, then subtract.

  1. 9409 ends in 9 → root ends in 3 or 7; 90² = 8100, 100² = 10000, and 97² = 9409. So √9409 = 97.
  2. 1849: 40² = 1600, 45² = 2025; ends in 9 → 43² = 1849. So √1849 = 43.
  3. 97 − 43 = 54.

Trick: Unit digits: 7 − 3 = 4, so the answer must end in 4 – only 54 does.

Answer: (A) 54

अवधारणा: इकाई अंक और पास के वर्ग से वर्गमूल निकालें, फिर घटाएँ।

  1. 9409 का इकाई 9 → मूल 3 या 7 पर; 97² = 9409, अतः √9409 = 97
  2. 1849 → 43² = 1849, अतः √1849 = 43
  3. 97 − 43 = 54

ट्रिक: इकाई अंक: 7 − 3 = 4 – केवल 54 का इकाई 4 है।

उत्तर: (A) 54

Q76.
Fill in the blank with the correctly spelt word.
The ____ of the antique manuscript was a painstaking process.
  1. Aresurrection
  2. Breesurection
  3. Cresurecsion
  4. Dresuracction
Show answer

Concept: Correct spelling: RE-SUR-REC-TION (single s, double r).

  1. Resurrection = bringing back to life / restoring – fits the restoration of an old manuscript.
  2. (B) doubles the e, (C) ends in -sion with single r, (D) has -racction – all wrong.

Trick: Think 'RE + SURRECT': re (again) + surgere (rise) – the double r comes from 'sur + r'.

Answer: (A) resurrection

अवधारणा: सही वर्तनी: RE-SUR-REC-TION (एक s, दो r)।

  1. Resurrection = फिर से जीवित/पुनर्स्थापित करना – पुरानी पांडुलिपि के पुनरुद्धार में सही बैठता है।
  2. (B) में ee, (C) में -sion व एक r, (D) में -racction – सब ग़लत।

ट्रिक: RE + SURRECT याद रखें – बीच में 'rr', अंत में '-ction'।

उत्तर: (A) resurrection
