The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
The correct option is (D): 1296
Explanation: Total number of squares in a chessboard= \(∑_1^n\)\((n)^2\)
and total number of rectangles in chessboard=\(C_2^{n+1} \times C_2^{n+1}\)
So, number of rectangles = \(C_2^{9} \times C_2^{9}\)\(=36\times36=1296\)
\(\therefore \) Total no. of rectangles in the chess board= 1296

- If \[ \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{e^{a(x-1)} + 2\cos(bx) + e^{-x}(c - 1)}{x \cos x - \ln(1 + x)} = 2, \] Then the value of \( a^2 + b^2 + c^2 \) is:
- If \( P(10, 2\sqrt{15}) \) lies on the hyperbola \( \frac{x^2}{a^2} - \frac{y^2}{b^2} = 1 \) and the length of the latus rectum is 8, then the square of the area of \( \Delta PS_1S_2 \) is [where \( S_1 \) and \( S_2 \) are the foci of the hyperbola].
- If \( \cos(\alpha + \beta) = -\frac{1}{10} \) and \( \sin(\alpha - \beta) = \frac{3}{8} \), where \[ 0<\alpha<\frac{\pi}{3} \quad \text{and} \quad 0<\beta<\frac{\pi}{4}, \] and \[ \tan(2\alpha) = \frac{3\left(1 - \sqrt{55}\right)}{\sqrt{11} \left(s + \sqrt{5}\right)}, \] and \( r, s \in \mathbb{N} \), then \( r^2 + s \) is:
- If \( O \) is the vertex of the parabola \( x^2 = 4y \), \( Q \) is a point on the parabola. If \( C \) is the locus of a point which divides \( OQ \) in the ratio \( 2:3 \), then the equation of the chord of \( C \) which is bisected at the point \( (1,2) \) is:
- The locus of the point of intersection of tangents drawn to the circle \[ (x - 2)^2 + (y - 3)^2 = 16, \] which subtends an angle of \(120^\circ\), is:
