Question : 2
What is the height of a right-angled triangle ?
(1) The area of the right-angled triangle is equal to the area of a rectangle whose breadth is 12 cm.
(2) The length of the rectangle is 18 cm.
a) BOTH statements TOGETHER are sufficient, but NEITHER statement alone is sufficient.
b) Statement (2) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (1) alone is not sufficient
c) Statement (1) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (2) alone is not sufficient.
d) Statements (1) and (2) TOGETHER are NOT sufficient.
Answer »Answer: (d)
(1) ⇒ Area of right-angled triangle = 12 × L
(2) ⇒ L = 18 cm.
∴ Using (1) and (2) we can only calculate the area of right-angled triangle. Since we don't know the base of triangle, the height cannot be calculated.
Question : 3

c) Statement (1) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (2) alone is not sufficient.
d) Statements (1) and (2) TOGETHER are NOT sufficient.

Solving these equations, we get the value of M. Therefore, both statements together are required to answer the question.
