What is the difference between the hypotenuse’s length of the right triangle with 2 shorter sides of 10 and 24 and the hypotenuse’s length of the right triangle with 2 shorter sides of 7 and 24?

A. 1
B. 2
C. 3
D. 4
E. 5

==>For Pythagorean Theorem, 5:12:13=10:24:26 and 7:24:25 appear most frequently. Thus, the length of hypotenuse each becomes 26 and 25, and the difference becomes 26-25=1.

The answer is A.

There is a circle inscribed in a square, shown on the above figure. If the length of the square is 2, what is the area of one of the 4 regions shaded?

A. \(1-π\)
B. \(2-π\)
C. \(4-π\)
D. \(1-(\frac{π}{2})\)
E. \(1-(\frac{π}{4})\)

==> The area of the square-area of the \(circle=2^2- π=4- π\), and since it asks for one of the 4 regions shaded, you get \(\frac{4- π}{4}=1-(\frac{π}{4})\).

The answer is E.

What is the scope including 1/11+1/12+1/13+......+1/20?

A 1/6~1/5
B. 1/5~1/4
C. 1/4~1/3
D. 1/3~1/2
E. 1/2~1

==>The sum of consecutive reciprocal number sequence is decided by the first number and the last number. Thus, from
10/20=1/11+1/12+.....+1/20<1/11+1/12+.....+1/20<1/11+1/12+.....+1/20=10/11, you get 1/2=10/20<1/11+1/12+.....+1/20<10/11<1, which becomes 1/2~1.

Therefore, the answer is E.

If (n+2)!/n!=156, n=?
A. 2/131 B. 9 C. 10 D. 11 E. 12

==> From (n+2)!/n!=156 and (n+2)(n+1)n!/n!=(n+2)(n+1)=156=13*12, you get n+2=13, n=11.

Therefore, the answer is D
Adding to this since it's a quadratic we will get 2 solutions 11,-14 but since -14 is not an option so n=11 is correct.

The standard deviation of which of the following is equivalent with that of \({m, r, p, n}\)?

A. {\({2m, 2r, 2p, 2n}\)}
B. {\({m+2, r+2, p+2, n+2}\)}
C. {\({|m|, |r|, |p|, |n|}\)}
D. {\({\frac{1}{m}, \frac{1}{r}, \frac{1}{p}, \frac{1}{n}}\)}
E. {\({m^2, r^2, p^2, n^2}\)}

==> For standard deviation, if the elements move in parallel, they have the same standard deviation. Thus, the standard deviation of {m, r, p, n} is equal to the standard deviation of {m+2, r+2, p+2, n+2}.

Therefore, the answer is B.
Answer: B
   1  ...  6   7   8   9   10  ...  29
