MCQ 21 Mark
In Fig. $\angle\text{XYZ}$ cannot be written as:
  • A
    $\angle\text{Y}$
  • $\angle\text{XYZ}$
  • C
    $\angle\text{ZYX}$
  • D
    $\angle\text{XYP}$
Answer
Correct option: B.
$\angle\text{XYZ}$
$\angle\text{XYZ}$ can be written as $\angle\text{Y},\angle\text{ZYX},\angle\text{XYP}$ and $\angle\text{PYX.}$
So, $\angle\text{XYZ}$ cannot be written as $\angle\text{ZXY}.$

MCQ 31 Mark
Measures of the two angles between hour and minute hands of a clock at $9\ O’$ clock are:
  • A
    $60^\circ , 300^\circ $
  • $270^\circ , 90^\circ $
  • C
    $75^\circ , 285^\circ $
  • D
    $30^\circ , 330^\circ $
Answer
Correct option: B.
$270^\circ , 90^\circ $

Clearly, $\angle1=90^\circ$
And $\angle2=\ \text{Reflex}\ \text{of}\ \angle1=360^\circ-90^\circ=270^\circ$
Note: A reflex angle is more than $180^\circ $ but less than $360^\circ $. For any acute angle $\theta,$ its reflex angle is $(360^\circ-\theta).$

When $\frac14$ is written with denominator as $12$, its numerator is:
  • $3.$
  • B
    $8.$
  • C
    $24.$
  • D
    $12.$
Answer
Correct option: A.
$3.$
Given, fraction $=\frac14$
In order to make the denominator as $12$, we will multiply the denominator by $3$ and we will also multiply the numerator by $3$, to make it an equivalent fraction.
$\frac14$ is $12$, then its numerator will be $3$.
