7161 = 62×115 + 31 = 6n + 2
62 = 31×2 + 0 Thus A.P. is 8, 14, 20, .......
Thus HCF (7161, 62) = 31 Now a15 = a + 14d = 8 + 14 ^6 h = 92

Ans : Ans :
Let the four numbers be a − 3d, a − d, a + d, a + 3d
Finding prime factor of given number, we have, Now a − 3d + a − d + a + d + a + 3d = 56
16 = 2×2×2×2 = 2 4 4a = 56 & a = 14
36 = 2×2×3×3 = 22 ×32 Hence numbers are 14 − 3d, 14 − d, 14 + d, 14 + 3d
HCF(16, 36) = 2×2 = 4 Now, according to question,
LCM (16, 36) = 2 4 ×32 ^14 − 3d h^14 + 3d h

To check HCF and LCM by using formula 196 − 9d2 = 5
HCF(a, b) ×LCM(a, b) = a # b 196 − d2 6

or, 4×144 = 16×36 6 ^196 − 9d2h = 5 ^196 − d2h

576 = 576 6 # 196 − 54d2 = 5 # 196 − 5d2

Let the first term be a , common difference be d , n th end point of radius,
term be an and sum of n term be Sn +TPO = 90º
Now Sn = 3n + 5m
2
Now +TPQ = +TPO − θ
Sn − 1 = 3 ^n − 1h + 5 ^n − 1h
2
= ^90º − θh
= 3 ^n + 1 − 2n h + 5n − 5
2 Since, TP = TQ and opposite angels of equal sides
are always equal, we have
= 3n2 + 3 − 6n + 5n − 5
+TQP = ^90º − θh
= 3n2 − n − 2
Now in ΔTPQ we have
a n = Sn − Sn − 1
+TPQ + +TQP + +PTQ = 180º

36. A train covered a certain distance at a uniform speed.
If the train would have been 10 km/hr scheduled time.
And, if the train were slower by 10 km/hr, it would
have taken 3 hr more than the scheduled time. Find
the distance covered by the train. [4]
Ans :
Let the actual speed of the train be x km/hr and
actual time taken y hr.
Distance = Speed × Time
= xy km
According to the given condition, we have We have +BED = +BDE
