If JUNK is written as B5C7B7A11 which word is written as B4C3B7B2?
J = 10 = Bx5
U = 21 = C x 7
N = 14 = B x 7
K = 11 = A x 11

Similarly

Bx4 = 8 = H
Cx3 = 9 = I
Bx7 = 14 = N
Bx2 = 4 = D

TIME soln:B4C3B7B2 is coded as HIND
B4 = 2*4 = 8 = H
C3 = 3*3 =9 = I
B7 = 2*7 = 14 =N
B2= 2*2 = 4 = D
sin α + sin β + sin γ = 0

cos α + cos β + cos γ = 0

cos (αθ) + cos (βθ) + cos (γθ) = ?
OPTIONS

1) sin θ
2) sin^2 θ
3) 0
4) 1 – cos θ
How many numbers from the set A ≡ {11, 111, 1111, …, 111111…20 times} have an odd number of factors?
OPTIONS

1) 4
2) 3
3) 7
4) 9
5) None of these

J - 10
U - 21
N- 14
K - 11

B5 - 2*5
C7 - 3*7
B7 - 2*7
A11 - 1*11

so
B4C3B7B2
=>
B4 - 2*4=8
C3 - 3*3-9
B7 - 2*7=14
B2 - 2*2=4

so HIND
If x is a natural number which is a perfect square, then the number x^2 ˆ' x must end in:

1) 0, 2 or 6
2) 0 or 2
3) 0 or 4
4) None of these

is it 1????
@sujamait said:
sin α + sin β + sin γ = 0cos α + cos β + cos γ = 0cos (α − θ) + cos (β − θ) + cos (γ − θ) = ?OPTIONS1) sin θ 2) sin^2 θ 3) 0 4) 1 – cos θ
3) 0

x^2 -x can end in 0,2,6

Option 1

@sujamait said:
sin α + sin β + sin γ = 0cos α + cos β + cos γ = 0cos (α − θ) + cos (β − θ) + cos (γ − θ) = ?OPTIONS1) sin θ 2) sin^2 θ 3) 0 4) 1 – cos θ
Is it 0?? 0%sure

cos (α − θ) + cos (β − θ) + cos (γ − θ)
=>(cos a*cos θ + sin a*sin θ)+(cos β*cos θ + sin β*sin θ)+(cos γ*cos θ + sin γ*sin θ)
=>
cos θ(cos a+cos β+cos γ) + sin θ(sin a+sin β+sin γ)
=>0
