Question:
A right circular cone, of height 12 ft, stands on its base which has diameter 8 ft. The tip of the cone is cut off with a plane which is parallel to the base and 9 ft from the base. With π = 22/7, the volume, in cubic ft, of the remaining part of the cone is

Correct Answer: 198
Solution and Explanation
We are given that diameter of base = 8 ft. Therefore, the radius of circular base = 8/2 = 4 ft
In triangle OAB and OCD
OA/AB = OC/CD
⇒ AB = 3×4/12 = 1ft
Therefore, the volume of remaining part = Volume of entire cone - Volume of smaller cone
⇒ 1/3×π×42×12-1/3×π×12×3
⇒ 1/3×π×189
⇒ 22/7×3×189
⇒ 198 cubic ft

- The absolute difference between the squares of the radii of the two circles passing through the point \( (-9, 4) \) and touching the lines \( x + y = 3 \) and \( x - y = 3 \), is equal to:
- Let $ ABC $ be the triangle such that the equations of lines $ AB $ and $ AC $ are: $ 3y - x = 2 \quad \text{and} \quad x + y = 2, $ respectively, and the points $ B $ and $ C $ lie on the x-axis. If $ P $ is the orthocentre of the triangle $ ABC $, then the area of the triangle $ PBC $ is equal to:
- The given figure shows a circle with centre O and radius 4 cm circumscribed by \(\triangle ABC\). BC touches the circle at D such that BD = 6 cm, DC = 10 cm. Find the length of AE.
- Let $ C_1 $ be the circle in the third quadrant of radius 3, that touches both coordinate axes. Let $ C_2 $ be the circle with center $ (1, 3) $ that touches $ C_1 $ externally at the point $ (\alpha, \beta) $. If $ (\beta - \alpha)^2 = \frac{m}{n} $, and $ \gcd(m, n) = 1 $, then $ m + n $ is equal to:
In the following figure chord MN and chord RS intersect at point D. If RD = 15, DS = 4, MD = 8, find DN by completing the following activity:
Activity :
\(\therefore\) MD \(\times\) DN = \(\boxed{\phantom{SD}}\) \(\times\) DS \(\dots\) (Theorem of internal division of chords)
\(\therefore\) \(\boxed{\phantom{8}}\) \(\times\) DN = 15 \(\times\) 4
\(\therefore\) DN = \(\frac{\boxed{\phantom{60}}}{8}\)
\(\therefore\) DN = \(\boxed{\phantom{7.5}}\)

These countries lie at the centre of global affairs: they have since the beginning of history.

- The passage given below is followed by four alternate summaries. Choose the option that best captures the essence of the passage.
Certain codes may, of course, be so widely distributed in a specific language community or culture, and be learned at so early an age, that they appear not to be constructed – the effect of an articulation between sign and referent – but to be ‘naturally’ given. Simple visual signs appear to have achieved a ‘near-universality’ in this sense: though evidence remains that even apparently ‘natural’ visual codes are culture specific. However, this does not mean that no codes have intervened; rather, that the codes have been profoundly naturalized. The operation of naturalized codes reveals not the transparency and ‘naturalness’ of language but the depth, the habituation and the near-universality of the codes in use. They produce apparently ‘natural’ recognitions. This has the (ideological) effect of concealing the practices of coding which are present.- CAT - 2024

Sentence: Comprehending a wide range of emotions, Renaissance music nevertheless portrayed all emotions in a balanced and moderate fashion.
Paragraph: A volume of translated Italian madrigals were published in London during the year of 1588.
