Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.
Q2. Direction: In the given question, a relationship between different elements is shown in the statements. The statements are followed by two conclusions.
Statements: A > B >C > D, E = F >B
Conclusions:
I. E >C
II. F > D
Conclusions:
I. E >C
II. F > D
Answer : Option E
Explaination / Solution:
E = F ≥ B ≥C
Conclusion I follows.
F ≥B ≥ C > D
Conclusion II follows.
Q3.
Find the number of triangles in the given figure.
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:
The figure may be labelled as shown.
The simplest triangles are AEH, EHI, EBF, EFI, FGC, IFG, DGH and HIG i.e. 8 in number.
The triangles composed of two components each are HEF, EFG, HFG and EFG i.e. 4 in number.
Thus, there are 8 + 4 = 12 triangles in the figure.
Q4. Directions: In each of the following questions, a question is followed by information given in three statements. You have to study the question along with the statements and decide the information given in which statement(s) are sufficient to answer the question.
Who is brother-in-law of A?

Who is brother-in-law of A?
I. A is married to brother of B. C is daughter of A.
II. D and E are the only brothers of B. B is a female.
III. Only D has no child.
Answer : Option E
Explaination / Solution:
From I & II. A is married either to D or to E.
From I, II & III. D has no child and A has a daughter. Hence, E is husband of A.
D is the brother-in-law of A.
Q5. In a tournament 14 teams play league matches. If each team plays against every other team once only then how many matches are played?
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.
Q6. Direction: In the given question, a relationship between different elements is shown in the statements. The statements are followed by two conclusions.
Statements: A <B = C < D, E <F < D
Conclusions:
I. B > E
II. A >F
Conclusions:
I. B > E
II. A >F
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:
E ≤ F < D > C = B
Conclusion I does not follows.
A ≤ B = C < D < F
Conclusion II does not follows.
Q7.
Find the number of triangles in the given figure.
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:
The figure may be labelled as shown.
The simplest triangles are ABG, BCG, CGE, CDE, AGE and AEF i.e. 6 in number.
The triangles composed of two components each are ABE, ABC, BCE and ACE i.e. 4 in number.
There are 6 + 4 = 10 triangles in the figure.
Q8. Directions: Each of the questions below consists of a question and two statements labeled I and II given below it. You have to decide whether the data provided in the statements are sufficient to answer the question. Read both the statements and give your answer accordingly:
How many students in standard V of our school do not play chess?
I. No girl has interest in chess.
II. In standard V, there are 40 boys.
I. No girl has interest in chess.
II. In standard V, there are 40 boys.

Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.
Q10. Direction: In the given question, a relationship between different elements is shown in the statements. The statements are followed by two conclusions.
Statements: A > B >C = D <E <F
Conclusions:
I. A > D
II. C < F
Conclusions:
I. A > D
II. C < F
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:
A > B > C = D
Conclusion I follows.
C = D <E <F
Conclusion II does not follows.
