Admissions Open | Globally Recognized by AACSB (US) & AMBA (UK) | 17.3 LPA Avg. CTC for PGPM 2024
⦟ADC = 180 - ⦟ABC (ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral)
⦟ADC = 180 - ⦟ABC = 180 – 88 = 920
⦟BQC = 180 - ⦟ADC - ⦟A (sum of all angles of a triangle is 1800)
⦟BQC = 180 – 92 – 72 = 160
Q3. If ABC is a quarter circle of radius 1 cm and a circle is inscribed in it, find the radius of the smaller circle inscribed.
– 1+2√2
1/2
– 1+ √2
1 – √2
Ans: [D]
OB = 1 – radius of inscribed circle
Dimensions will be as shown in the figure;
r2 + r2 = (1-r)2
2r2 = 1 + r2 – 2r
r2 + 2r – 1 = 0
On solving; r = (√2 – 1) cm
Q4. How many isosceles triangles (having integral length) are possible if the sum of two of its sides is 10?
11
14
15
23
Ans: (B)
Case 1: Sum of two equal sides = 10
Sides of the triangle should be 5, 5, a
Also, a < (5+ 5)
⇒ a = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9] ? 9 possible triangles are there.
Case 2: Sum of two unequal sides = 10
Sides of the triangle should be a, a, 10- a
a + a > 10- a and a < 10
3a > 10
a > 10/3 but less than 10; So, a can be 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
If a =5 then other sides will also be 5 and 5. This case is already taken in Case1.
Here, five such triangles are possible.
Therefore, the answer is 9+ 5 = 14.
Q5. An equilateral triangle of side 6 cm, has its corners cut away to form a hexagon with all sides equal. Then the length of each side of the hexagon, in cms, is
2√2
1/2
2
√2
Ans: [c]
A regular Hexagon PQRSTUV is formed as shown in the figure.
Interior angle of a regular hexagon = 1200
So, ⦟ ATS = ⦟AST = 180- 120 = 600
This makes triangle ATS an equilateral triangle
⇒ AT = TS = AS
Also, TS = TU = UP
From this we can say, sides of Triangle ABC is cut in such a way that
Side of regular Hexagon = Side of triangle /3 = 6/3 = 2 cm.
Q6. D, E, and F are the mid-points of the sides BC, CA and AB respectively of an equilateral triangle ABC. Determine the ratio of the perimeter and area of triangle DEF.
1: 4
1: 2
2: 3
4√3: 1
Ans: [D]
Let the side of triangle ABC = 2 cm.
Then, side of triangle DEF = 1 cm; Area = 34 cm2; Perimeter = 1x 3 = 3 cm.
Perimeter(DEF)Area (DEF)= 3 3/4 = 4√3: 1
Q7. One card is picked from the deck of cards which turned out to be red. What is the probability of it being a face card?
3/13
3/26
1/13
2/13
Ans: [a]
Total Outcome = 26 (Red Cards)
Possible outcomes = 6 (face cards of red colour)
Probability = 6/26 = 3/13
CAT Online Practice Paper Part B: LRDI (Logical Reasoning and Data Interpretation) CAT Previous Year Question Paper
Data Sufficiency (Q1-Q3):
Direction:
Statement I alone is sufficient to answer this question but statement II is not sufficient to answer this question.
Statement II alone is sufficient to answer this question but statement I is not sufficient to answer this question.
None is sufficient to answer this question.
Both statements together are sufficient to answer this question
Q1. On which day Sumit goes to Delhi?
Statement I: According to Sumit’s sister Sumit goes to Delhi after Tuesday and before Sunday but he did not go to Delhi on Thursday.
Statement II: According to Sumit’s father Sumit goes to Delhi after Monday and before Saturday.
Ans: [C]
Statement I:
Using the given information we can say that Sumit goes on to trip on one of the days Wednesday, Friday or Saturday. Hence, data in statement I alone is not sufficient.
Statement II:
Using the given information we can say that Sumit can go on to trip on any of the days among Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.
Hence, data in statement II alone is also not sufficient.
Combining statements I and II:
From Statement I, we figured out that Sumit goes on to trip on one of the days Wednesday, Friday and Saturday.
From Statement II, we figured out that Sumit can go on to trip on any of the days among Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.
After, compiling the above information we can say that Sumit goes to Delhi on either Wednesday or Friday.
Hence, data in statements I and II together are not sufficient.
Q2. How is Sonal definitely related to Pramila?
Statement I: Sonal's mother is the sister of Pramila's father.
Statement II: Pramila is the daughter of Sonal's grandfather's only son.
Ans: [C]
Statement I: Sonal's mother is the sister of Pramila's father.
Here, we can observe that a direct relationship between Sonal and Pramila can't be established as Sonal's gender is not known. Clearly, Statement I alone is not sufficient to answer the question.
Statement II: Pramila is the daughter of Sonal's grandfather's only son.
Here, a direct relationship between Sonal and Pramila can't be established as it's not given as Sonal's paternal or maternal grandfather is being referred to here. Because of this, the statement stays ambiguous.
Clearly, Statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question.
Combining Statements, I and II:
Statement I: Sonal's mother is the sister of Pramila's father.
Statement II: Pramila is the daughter of Sonal's grandfather's only son.
Even if we combine the two statements above, we do not get the gender of Sonal and therefore statements I and II together are not sufficient to reach the answer.
Q3. Five persons – Arun, Bimal, Chaman, Deepak and Eshan, each earn a different amount of money. Who among these persons earns the second highest?
Statement I: Only Chaman earns more than Bimal.
Statement II: Deepak and Eshan earn less than Arun.
Ans: [A]
Statement I: Only Chaman earns more than Bimal.
After using the above references, we have
Order of Earnings:
Chaman > Bimal > ____ > ____ > ____
Here, we can say that Bimal earns the second highest.
Clearly, Statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question.
Statement II: Deepak and Eshan earn less than Arun.
After using the above references, we have
Order of Earnings:
Arun > Deepak/Eshan
Here, we have no sure information about the earnings of any of these persons.
Clearly, Statement II alone is not sufficient to answer the question.
Here, the data in Statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question.
Hence, the correct answer is option A.
Direction: (Q4- Q6)
India, Pakistan, Malaysia, South Korea, Japan and China are to take part in the Asian Hockey Championship. In the first round, each team plays each of the other teams exactly once. At this stage, two points are awarded for a win, one point for a draw and zero points for a loss. After all the matches are played, the top two teams, in terms of the points scored, advance to the finals. In case two or more teams end up with the same number of points, the team with a better goal difference is placed higher.
Q4. The total number of matches in the tournament is
21
22
15
16
Ans: [D]
The total number of matches in the tournament = 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1 + 1 (finals) = 16
Q5. What is the minimum number of points with which a team can advance to the finals?
6
5
4
3
Ans: [C]
The minimum number of points would be required when one of the teams scores the maximum points and the remaining teams equally share all the remaining points. Total points available = 15 × 2 = 30; Maximum points for a team = 5 × 2 = 10. The remaining 20 points can be shared by all five teams, and one of those teams with four points would advance to the finals on the basis of the goal difference.
Q6. What is the maximum number of points that can be scored by a team, which failed to advance to the finals?
8
9
6
7
Ans: [A]
The worst-case scenario for a team happens when three teams score the highest points and one of those teams is eliminated. Points scored by the last three teams (points only among themselves) = 6; remaining points = 24. These points can be shared by the teams, and one of the teams with 8 points could be eliminated on the basis of goal difference.
Direction: (Q7- Q9)
128 players take part in a Grand Slam tennis tournament. The tournament is scheduled to be held in seven rounds and in each round, in a match between two players, the winner advances to the next round and the loser is eliminated. There are no draws or byes in the tournament. The players who take part in the tournament are seeded from 1 to 128, with seed 1 being the top seed, seed 2 next and so on. The matches are scheduled in such a way that in any round, assuming there are no upsets, the highest-seeded player plays against the lowest-seeded player at that point, the next highest-seeded player always plays against the next lowest-seeded player and so on. An upset is said to happen when a lower-seeded player beats a higher-seeded player. The schedule of matches in the next round remains unchanged in case of an upset in a round, with the only difference being that the player who caused the upset advances to the next round and takes the designated place of the player he upset.
Q7. In case of no upsets in the tournament, in which round would the player seeded 10 faces a player seeded higher than him?
2nd round
3rd round
4th round
5th round
Ans: [C]
A player seeded 10, assuming no upsets is expected to reach the last 16 stages, i.e., the fourth round. In this round, he would face the player seeded 7 and would be eliminated.
Q8. How many players in the tournament won exactly one match?
15
24
30
None of these
Ans: [D]
The players who won exactly one match are those who won the first round but lost in the second round, i.e., 64 – 32 = 32 players.
Q9. Assuming no upsets, which player beat seed No.25?
Seed 8
Seed 6
Seed 1
Seed 14
Ans: [A]
The player seeded 25 would have lost to the player seeded 8.

M/s Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Limited, one of the top four audit and accounting firms in the world with headquarters at London, UK, and with an operational presence in 153 countries, hires Management Trainees (MT) from all the premier management institutes of India thrice every year, in the months of January, May and September.
Each new group of Management Trainees (MT) have to go through a four month rigorous training schedule, after which they have to pass through a test consisting of a written assessment and a case-analysis. The top hundred ranked Management Trainees (MT) based on the performance in the test are confirmed as Management Executives (ME). The rest are given the opportunity of undergoing the training for four months one more time along with the next batch of Management Trainees (MT) and then passing through the subsequent test consisting of the written assessment and case-analysis. The Management Trainee (MT) who fails to get confirmed as a Management Executive (ME) the second time is fired.
The scatter-graph below depicts the number of Management Trainees (MT) at Deloitte taking the tests from January 2020 till May 2022, and the vis-à-vis hired Management Trainees (MT) at Deloitte who were fired :
It is also known that for the month of September 2019 at Deloitte, 96 hired Management Trainees (MT) failed to be confirmed as a Management Executive (ME) the first time, and that 36 hired Management Trainees (MT) were fired.
Question :
In which test did the minimum number of Management Trainees (MT) get confirmed as a Management Executive (ME) in the second attempt ?
Two friends Moloy and Niloy passed out from the Purulia Institute of Science and Technology with B.Tech degrees in Mechanical Engineering, but even after a year placement was hard to find. So they decided to take the challenge head-on, came down to Kolkata, rented a garage space on Park Street, and having an affinity towards making people enjoy good food, started their firm named 'B.Tech Bread-Omlette Wala'.
They started with three items on the menu. One was the French Toast which could be prepared in 3 minutes. The second was the Egg Tortillas which took 15 minutes to prepare. Any one of Moloy and Niloy could prepare any one of them at a time. The third was the Egg Bhurji with French Fries. This however was prepared on an automated fryer which could prepare 3 servings at a time and took 5 minutes irrespective of the number of servings equal to or below 3. The fryer did not need anyone to attend to it, and the time to put in the raw ingredients could be neglected. So one could tend to the preparation of other items while the Egg Bhurji with French Fries were being prepared.
They wanted to serve the orders as early as possible after the order was given. The individual items in any order were served as and when all the items were ready, and the order was then considered closed. None of the items on the menu were prepared in advance in anticipation of future orders.
On the first day, 3 groups of customers came in and ordered at 6.00 pm, 6.10 pm, and 6.13 pm. The first order was for a plate of Egg Tortillas, two plates of French Toast, and three plates of Egg Bhurji with French Fries. The second order was for a plate of French Toast and two plates of Egg Bhurji with French Fries. The third order was for a plate of Egg Tortilla and a plate of Egg Bhurji with French Fries.
On the backdrop of the above information answer the questions given :
Question:
Assuming that the next customer's order could only be attended to when the previous customer's order was closed, at what time would the first customer's order be considered closed ?

So they decided to take the challenge head-on, came down to Kolkata, rented a garage space on Park Street, and having an affinity towards making people enjoy good food, started their firm named 'B.Tech Bread-Omlette Wala'.
They started with three items on the menu. One was the French Toast which could be prepared in 3 minutes. The second was the Egg Tortillas which took 15 minutes to prepare. Any one of Moloy and Niloy could prepare any one of them at a time. The third was the Egg Bhurji with French Fries. This however was prepared on an automated fryer which could prepare 3 servings at a time and took 5 minutes irrespective of the number of servings equal to or below 3. The fryer did not need anyone to attend to it, and the time to put in the raw ingredients could be neglected. So one could tend to the preparation of other items while the Egg Bhurji with French Fries were being prepared.
They wanted to serve the orders as early as possible after the order was given. The individual items in any order were served as and when all the items were ready, and the order was then considered closed. None of the items on the menu were prepared in advance in anticipation of future orders.
On the first day, 3 groups of customers came in and ordered at 6.00 pm, 6.10 pm, and 6.13 pm. The first order was for a plate of Egg Tortillas, two plates of French Toast, and three plates of Egg Bhurji with French Fries. The second order was for a plate of French Toast and two plates of Egg Bhurji with French Fries. The third order was for a plate of Egg Tortilla and a plate of Egg Bhurji with French Fries.
On the backdrop of the above information answer the questions given :
Question:
Had Niloy been absent on that day, and assuming that the next customer's order could only be attended to when the previous customer's order was closed, at what time would the fourth customer's order (refer to the previous question) be considered closed ?
