In a survey of 120 final year secondary school students in Lagos, 47 offer Physics ( $P$ ), 57 offer Chemistry ( $C$ ), and 48 offer Biology ( $B$ ). Records show that 17 students offer both Physics and Chemistry, 20 offer both Chemistry and Biology, and 15 offer both Physics and Biology. If the number of students who offer none of these three subjects is three times the number of students who offer all three subjects, find the total number of students who offer exactly one of the three subjects.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 63

Cevap

63 students offer exactly one of the three subjects.

By applying the principle of inclusion-exclusion for three sets, the total union is

|P \cup C \cup B| = 47 + 57 + 48 - (17 + 20 + 15) + x = 100 + x

, where

x

is the number of students taking all three subjects. Setting the universal set total to 120 gives

(100 + x) + 3x = 120

, solving to

x = 5

. Subtracting the relevant intersections yields 20 students for Physics only, 25 for Chemistry only, and 18 for Biology only. Summing these gives 63.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Define unknown variables and set up the inclusion-exclusion formula for the union of three sets.

|P \cup C \cup B| = 100 + x

, where

x = |P \cap C \cap B|

.

The Principle of Inclusion-Exclusion states that

|P \cup C \cup B| = |P| + |C| + |B| - (|P \cap C| + |C \cap B| + |P \cap B|) + |P \cap C \cap B|

.

2

Formulate and solve an equation for the total number of students in the universal set.

120 = (100 + x) + 3x \implies 4x = 20 \implies x = 5

.

The total number of students equals those taking at least one subject plus those taking none (

3x

).

3

Determine the number of students taking exactly two subjects.

Physics and Chemistry only =

17 - 5 = 12

; Chemistry and Biology only =

20 - 5 = 15

; Physics and Biology only =

15 - 5 = 10

.

Subtract the triple intersection count (

x = 5

) from each pairwise intersection count.

4

Calculate the number of students offering only Physics, only Chemistry, and only Biology.

Physics only =

47 - (12 + 10 + 5) = 20

; Chemistry only =

57 - (12 + 15 + 5) = 25

; Biology only =

48 - (10 + 15 + 5) = 18

.

Subtract the sum of the two-subject-only regions and the three-subject region from each set's total cardinality.

5

Sum the counts of students offering exactly one subject.

20 + 25 + 18 = 63

.

The total offering exactly one subject is the sum of the three disjoint single-subject regions.

Given that $\tan \theta + \cot \theta = 4$ for an acute angle $\theta$ , what is the exact decimal value of $\sin^4 \theta + \cos^4 \theta$ ?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 0.875

Cevap

The exact decimal value of

\sin^4 \theta + \cos^4 \theta

is 0.875.

By writing

\tan \theta + \cot \theta

as

\frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta} + \frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta} = \frac{\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta}{\sin \theta \cos \theta} = 4

, we find that

\sin \theta \cos \theta = \frac{1}{4}

. Squaring the fundamental identity

\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta = 1

gives

\sin^4 \theta + 2\sin^2 \theta \cos^2 \theta + \cos^4 \theta = 1

. Isolating

\sin^4 \theta + \cos^4 \theta

yields

1 - 2(\sin \theta \cos \theta)^2 = 1 - 2\left(\frac{1}{16}\right) = 1 - \frac{1}{8} = \frac{7}{8} = 0.875

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Rewrite the expression

\tan \theta + \cot \theta = 4

using sine and cosine ratios

\frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta} + \frac{\cos \theta}{\sin \theta} = 4

Applies the fundamental quotient identities for tangent and cotangent.

2

Combine fractions over a common denominator and apply the Pythagorean identity

\frac{\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta}{\sin \theta \cos \theta} = \frac{1}{\sin \theta \cos \theta} = 4 \implies \sin \theta \cos \theta = \frac{1}{4}

Utilizes the identity

\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta = 1

.

3

Relate

\sin^4 \theta + \cos^4 \theta

to

(\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta)^2

\sin^4 \theta + \cos^4 \theta = (\sin^2 \theta + \cos^2 \theta)^2 - 2\sin^2 \theta \cos^2 \theta = 1 - 2(\sin \theta \cos \theta)^2

Uses the algebraic identity

a^2 + b^2 = (a+b)^2 - 2ab

where

a = \sin^2 \theta

and

b = \cos^2 \theta

.

4

Substitute

\sin \theta \cos \theta = \frac{1}{4}

into the algebraic relation

1 - 2\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^2 = 1 - 2\left(\frac{1}{16}\right) = 1 - \frac{1}{8} = \frac{7}{8} = 0.875

Evaluates the expression to obtain the final decimal result.

A solid right circular cylinder of radius $5\text{ cm}$ and height $12\text{ cm}$ has a conical cavity of the same radius and height hollowed out from its top face. What is the total surface area of the remaining solid in $\text{cm}^2$ , expressed as a multiple of $\pi$ (that is, find the value of $K$ where the total surface area is $K\pi\text{ cm}^2$ )?

Cevap: 210

Cevap

The total surface area of the remaining solid is

210\pi\text{ cm}^2

, so the required numerical coefficient

K

is

210

.

The total surface area consists of three parts: the flat circular base at the bottom (

25\pi\text{ cm}^2

), the outer curved surface of the cylinder (

120\pi\text{ cm}^2

), and the newly created inner curved surface of the conical cavity (

65\pi\text{ cm}^2

). Adding these together yields

25\pi + 120\pi + 65\pi = 210\pi\text{ cm}^2

, giving the coefficient

K = 210

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the slant height (

l

) of the conical cavity.

l = \sqrt{5^2 + 12^2} = \sqrt{169} = 13\text{ cm}

.

The slant height forms the hypotenuse of the right triangle whose leg lengths are the base radius and the vertical height of the cone.

2

Determine the area of all exposed boundary surfaces of the remaining solid.

Flat bottom base area

= \pi(5)^2 = 25\pi\text{ cm}^2

; Outer curved cylindrical surface area

= 2\pi(5)(12) = 120\pi\text{ cm}^2

; Inner curved conical surface area

= \pi(5)(13) = 65\pi\text{ cm}^2

Hollowing out the cone creates an internal curved boundary while leaving the outer cylindrical boundary and the flat bottom base exposed.

3

Sum the areas of all exposed surfaces to calculate the total surface area.

Total Surface Area

= 25\pi + 120\pi + 65\pi = 210\pi\text{ cm}^2

A rhombus has an area of $120\text{ cm}^2$ . If the length of one of its diagonals exceeds the length of the other diagonal by $14\text{ cm}$ , what is the perimeter of the rhombus in centimeters?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 52

Cevap

The perimeter of the rhombus is 52 cm.

The area of a rhombus is given by A = \frac{1}{2} d_1 d_2. Setting \frac{1}{2} d_1(d_1 + 14) = 120$ yields the quadratic equation d_1^2 + 14d_1 - 240 = 0, which factors to (d_1 - 10)(d_1 + 24) = 0. Taking the positive solution d_1 = 10\text{ cm} gives d_2 = 24\text{ cm}. The diagonals intersect at right angles, dividing the rhombus into four congruent right triangles with legs of 5 cm and 12 cm. The hypotenuse (side length s) is \sqrt{5^2 + 12^2} = 13\text{ cm}. Therefore, the perimeter is 4 \times 13\text{ cm} = 52\text{ cm}.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Set up the area formula for a rhombus in terms of its diagonals

d_1 \cdot d_2 = 240

The area of a rhombus is given by A = \frac{1}{2} d_1 d_2, so \frac{1}{2} d_1 d_2 = 120.

2

Substitute d_2 = d_1 + 14 into the area equation

d_1^2 + 14d_1 - 240 = 0

The difference between the diagonal lengths is 14 cm.

3

Solve the quadratic equation for d_1

d_1 = 10\text{ cm} \text{ and } d_2 = 24\text{ cm}

Factoring gives (d_1 - 10)(d_1 + 24) = 0. Discarding the negative root yields d_1 = 10 cm.

4

Calculate the side length s using the right-angled triangle formed by the perpendicular bisecting diagonals

s = 13\text{ cm}

s = \sqrt{(\frac{d_1}{2})^2 + (\frac{d_2}{2})^2} = \sqrt{5^2 + 12^2} = \sqrt{169} = 13\text{ cm}.

5

Multiply side length by 4 to get the total perimeter

P = 52\text{ cm}

All four sides of a rhombus are equal, so Perimeter = 4 \times s = 4 \times 13 = 52 cm.

In a circle of radius $13\text{ cm}$ , two parallel chords $AB$ and $CD$ are drawn on the same side of the center $O$ . If $AB = 24\text{ cm}$ and $CD = 10\text{ cm}$ , calculate the perpendicular distance between the two chords in centimeters.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 7

Cevap

The perpendicular distance between the two chords is

7\text{ cm}

.

The perpendicular line from the center

O

to a chord bisects the chord. Applying the Pythagorean theorem to the right triangles formed by the radius (

13\text{ cm}

) and half-chords (

12\text{ cm}

and

5\text{ cm}

) yields distances of

5\text{ cm}

and

12\text{ cm}

from the center, respectively. Since both parallel chords are on the same side of the center, the distance between them is

12\text{ cm} - 5\text{ cm} = 7\text{ cm}

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Find the perpendicular distance from center

O

to chord

AB

d_1 = 5\text{ cm}

A line drawn from the center of a circle perpendicular to a chord bisects the chord. Using the right triangle formed by the radius, half-chord (

12\text{ cm}

), and perpendicular distance:

d_1 = \sqrt{13^2 - 12^2} = 5\text{ cm}

.

2

Find the perpendicular distance from center

O

to chord

CD

d_2 = 12\text{ cm}

Using the perpendicular bisector property for chord

CD

(half-chord is

5\text{ cm}

):

d_2 = \sqrt{13^2 - 5^2} = 12\text{ cm}

.

3

Calculate the distance between the parallel chords

7\text{ cm}

Because both chords are on the same side of the center

O

, the distance between them is the difference of their individual distances from the center:

12\text{ cm} - 5\text{ cm} = 7\text{ cm}

.

n^{\text{th}}

term formula

T_n = a + (n - 1)d

with first term

a = 7

, common difference

d = 4

, and term index

n = 12

gives

T_{12} = 7 + (12 - 1) \times 4 = 7 + 44 = 51

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify given variables

a = 7

,

d = 4

, and

n = 12

These are the necessary components to calculate the required term position in an arithmetic sequence.

2

Apply the

n^{\text{th}}

term formula for an AP

T_{12} = 7 + (12 - 1) \times 4

The standard formula

T_n = a + (n - 1)d

determines the value of any term in an AP.

3

Compute the numerical result

T_{12} = 7 + 44 = 51

Multiplying the common difference by 11 and adding the first term yields the correct value.

Two boats depart simultaneously from a port $P$ . Boat $A$ travels along a straight path for $8\text{ km}$ , while Boat $B$ travels along another straight path for $15\text{ km}$ . If the angle between their paths at the port is $60^\circ$ , what is the distance between the two boats in kilometers?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 13

Cevap

The distance between the two boats is 13 km.

The distance between the two boats forms the third side of a triangle where two side lengths (

8\text{ km}

and

15\text{ km}

) and the included angle (

60^\circ

) are known. By the Cosine Rule,

d^2 = 8^2 + 15^2 - 2(8)(15)\cos(60^\circ) = 64 + 225 - 120 = 169

, so

d = \sqrt{169} = 13\text{ km}

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Formulate the geometric model

A triangle with two sides of length

8\text{ km}

and

15\text{ km}

, and an included angle of

60^\circ

.

The paths of the two boats and the distance between them form a triangle with two given side lengths and the included angle.

2

Set up the Cosine Rule formula

d^2 = 8^2 + 15^2 - 2(8)(15)\cos(60^\circ)

The Cosine Rule (

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab\cos C

) is used when two sides and the included angle are known (SAS configuration).

3

Evaluate the trigonometric term and simplify

d^2 = 64 + 225 - 240(0.5) = 289 - 120 = 169

Since

\cos(60^\circ) = 0.5

, the subtraction term reduces to

120

.

Calculate the principal square root

d = 13

In how many distinct ways can a president, a vice-president, and a secretary be chosen from a group of $7$ candidates, assuming no candidate can hold more than one position?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 210

Cevap

The total number of distinct ways to choose the three officers from 7 candidates is 210.

Selecting 3 distinct officers from a group of 7 candidates requires ordering 3 individuals out of 7, which equals

7 \times 6 \times 5 = 210

ways.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify whether the problem involves permutations or combinations

Order is important because the positions (President, Vice-President, Secretary) are distinct.

Selecting person X as President and person Y as Secretary is different from selecting person Y as President and person X as Secretary.

2

Calculate the permutation

^7P_3

^7P_3 = 7 \times 6 \times 5 = 210

There are 7 choices for President, 6 remaining choices for Vice-President, and 5 remaining choices for Secretary.

A closed cylindrical metal container has a total surface area of $54\pi\text{ cm}^2$ . What radius, in centimeters, of the circular base will yield the maximum volume for the container?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 3

Cevap

The radius of the circular base that maximizes the volume is 3 cm.

To find the radius that yields maximum volume, we first express height

h

in terms of radius

r

using the total surface area formula

2\pi r^2 + 2\pi rh = 54\pi

, giving

h = \frac{27 - r^2}{r}

. Substituting this into the volume equation

V = \pi r^2 h

gives

V(r) = 27\pi r - \pi r^3

. Setting the first derivative

\frac{dV}{dr} = 27\pi - 3\pi r^2

to zero yields

3\pi r^2 = 27\pi

, so

r^2 = 9

and

r = 3\text{ cm}

. The second derivative

\frac{d^2V}{dr^2} = -6\pi r

evaluated at

r = 3

is

-18\pi

, which is strictly negative, confirming that

r = 3\text{ cm}

maximizes volume.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Set up the surface area equation for a closed cylinder with the given value.

2\pi r^2 + 2\pi r h = 54\pi

A closed cylinder consists of two circular bases (

2\pi r^2

) and a curved lateral surface (

2\pi r h

).

2

Express

h

in terms of

r

.

h = \frac{27 - r^2}{r}

Dividing the surface area equation by

2\pi

yields

r^2 + rh = 27

, allowing

h

to be isolated.

3

Substitute

h

into the volume formula

V = \pi r^2 h

to write volume as a function of

r

only.

V(r) = 27\pi r - \pi r^3

To maximize volume using calculus, the volume equation must be expressed in terms of a single variable.

4

Differentiate

V(r)

with respect to

r

and set the derivative equal to zero to find stationary points.

\frac{dV}{dr} = 27\pi - 3\pi r^2 = 0 \implies r = 3

Maximum volume occurs at a stationary point where the first derivative is zero.

5

Verify that

r = 3

produces a maximum using the second derivative test.

\frac{d^2V}{dr^2} = -6\pi r

; at

r = 3

,

\frac{d^2V}{dr^2} = -18\pi < 0

A negative second derivative indicates a local maximum.
