Let C be a circle of radius 5 meters having center at O. Let PQ be a chord of C that passes through points A and B where A is located 4 meters north of O and B is located 3 meters east of O. Then, the length of PQ, in meters, is nearest to

Let C₁ and C₂ be concentric circles such that the diameter of C₁ is 2 cm longer than that of C₂. If a chord of C₁ has length 6 cm and is a tangent to C₂, then the diameter, in cm, of C₁ is

A and B are two points on a straight line. Ram runs from A to B while Rahim runs from B to A. After crossing each other, Ram and Rahim reach their destinations in one minute and four minutes, respectively. If they start at the same time, then the ratio of Ram's speed to Rahim's s…

In how many ways can a pair of integers (x, a) be chosen such that x² − 2|x| + |a − 2| = 0?

If x and y are non-negative integers such that x + 9 = z, y + 1 = z and x + y < z + 5, then the maximum possible value of 2x + y equals

The sum of the perimeters of an equilateral triangle and a rectangle is 90 cm. The area, T, of the triangle and the area, R, of the rectangle, both in sq cm, satisfy the relationship R = T². If the sides of the rectangle are in the ratio 1 : 3, then the length, in cm, of the long…

In a car race, car A beats car B by 45 km, car B beats car C by 50 km, and car A beats car C by 90 km. The distance (in km) over which the race has been conducted is

Two circular tracks T₁ and T₂ of radii 100 m and 20 m, respectively touch at a point A. Starting from A at the same time, Ram and Rahim are walking on track T₁ and track T₂ at speeds 15 km/hr and 5 km/hr respectively. The number of full rounds that Ram will make before he meets R…
