Q1.
Identify the part of the sentence that contains a grammatical error.
A. The team, B. was confident about their strategy, C. and hoped it, D. would succeed
  1. AThe team
  2. Bwas confident about their strategy
  3. Cand hoped it
  4. Dwould succeed
Show answer

Concept: A collective noun acting as one unit takes a singular verb and a singular pronoun throughout the sentence.

  1. Verb used is 'was' and later the team is called 'it' → the team is treated as ONE unit.
  2. So 'their strategy' clashes; use 'its strategy'.
  3. Corrected part B: was confident about its strategy.

Trick: Check the verb and the later pronoun first – whichever number they show (singular here), every pronoun for that noun must follow it.

Answer: (B) was confident about their strategy

अवधारणा: जब collective noun एक इकाई की तरह काम करे, तो verb और pronoun दोनों singular होंगे।

  1. वाक्य में 'was' और बाद में 'it' आया है – यानी team को एक इकाई माना गया है।
  2. इसलिए 'their' (plural) गलत है, सही रूप 'its strategy' है।
  3. भाग B का सही रूप: was confident about its strategy।

ट्रिक: पहले verb और बाद वाला pronoun देखें – वही संख्या (singular/plural) पूरे वाक्य में बनी रहनी चाहिए।

उत्तर: (B) was confident about their strategy

Q26.
In a code language, GALEFROOF becomes LFQJKWTTK. How would FACECLOTHS be written?
एक कूट भाषा में, GALEFROOF को LFQJKWTTK लिखा जाता है। तो FACECLOTHS को किस प्रकार लिखा जाएगा?
  1. AKFHJHQTYMX
  2. BKFHJHQTYLX
  3. CKFHFHRTYMX
  4. DKFHJHRTYMX
Show answer

Concept: Each letter of the word is moved a fixed number of places forward in the alphabet.

  1. G(7)→L(12), A(1)→F(6), E(5)→J(10): every letter +5.
  2. Shift FACECLOTHS by +5 letter by letter.
  3. Code = KFHJHQTYMX.

Trick: Check just one letter that differs between options: 6th letter L+5 = Q (kills C, D), 9th letter H+5 = M (kills B).

Answer: (A) KFHJHQTYMX

अवधारणा: शब्द का हर अक्षर वर्णमाला में निश्चित स्थान आगे खिसकाया गया है।

  1. G(7)→L(12), A(1)→F(6), E(5)→J(10): हर अक्षर +5।
  2. FACECLOTHS के हर अक्षर को +5 करें।
  3. कोड = KFHJHQTYMX।

ट्रिक: विकल्पों में जो अक्षर अलग हैं, केवल वही जाँचें: L+5 = Q (C, D बाहर), H+5 = M (B बाहर)।

उत्तर: (A) KFHJHQTYMX

Q51.
If A+B+C=0, and A2+B2+C2= 64 , then find the value of AB+BC+CA
यदि A+B+C=0 है, तथा A2+B2+C2= 64 है, तो AB+BC+CA का मान ज्ञात कीजिए।
  1. A-32
  2. B32
  3. C-64
  4. D64
Show answer

Concept: (A+B+C)² = A² + B² + C² + 2(AB+BC+CA).

  1. Let S = AB+BC+CA. Then 0² = 64 + 2S.
  2. 2S = −64 ⇒ S = −32.

Trick: If A+B+C = 0, then AB+BC+CA = −(A²+B²+C²)/2 = −64/2 = −32 directly.

Answer: (A) -32

अवधारणा: (A+B+C)² = A² + B² + C² + 2(AB+BC+CA)।

  1. माना S = AB+BC+CA, तो 0 = 64 + 2S।
  2. 2S = −64 ⇒ S = −32।

ट्रिक: A+B+C = 0 हो तो AB+BC+CA = −(वर्गों का योग)/2 = −32।

उत्तर: (A) -32
