49
64
90
81
Correct answer
90
Why this answer is correct
The logic followed here is that all the numbers except one are perfect squares.
49 = 72
64 = 82
81 = 92
The number 90 is not a perfect square.
Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".
A man walks 4 km north, then turns right and walks 3 km. Then turns right again and walks 4 km.
What is the shortest distance from his starting point?
2 km
5 km
3 km
4 km
Correct answer
3 km
Why this answer is correct
Given:
A man walks 4 km north, then turns right and walks 3 km.
Then turns right again and walks 4 km.
Movement of the man is,
So, the shortest distance from his starting point is 3 Km.
Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".
What should come in the place of question mark (?) in the following alpha numeric series?
10M-30, 15O-27, 20K-24, 25Q-21, ?
32K-22
31S-18
33J-18
30I-18
Correct answer
30I-18
Why this answer is correct
The pattern followed here is.
Thus, the missing term in the series is 30I-18.
Hence, the correct answer is Option 4.
What should come in the place of question mark (?) in the following alpha numeric series?
2A-50, 5Z-46, 8B-42, 11Y-38, ?
14C-34
14X-34
14F-30
14D-34
Correct answer
14C-34
Why this answer is correct
The logic followed here is,
Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.
Alternate Method Here is the detailed explanation for the pattern:
The next letter in the sequence will be the next letter of the first series, which is C.
By combining the results, the missing term is 14C-34.
Four of the following five are alike in a certain way and hence form a group. Which is the one that does not belong to that group?
M N O P : N M O P
A B C D : B A C D
W X Y Z : X Y W Z
S T U V : T S U V
Correct answer
W X Y Z : X Y W Z
Why this answer is correct
The logic followed here is,
For,
MNOP : NMOP
ABCD : BACD
FGHI : GFHI
STUV : TSUV
5. WXYZ : XYWZ
**"**WXYZ : XYWZ" does not follow the same logic as others.
Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

Decoding symbols for Family Tree:
Let's decode the relationships step-by-step:
A is the father of B.
B is the mother of C.
According to the given information Family Tree Representation:
Thus, A is the Grandfather of C.
Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1"
Read the following statement carefully and identify the conclusion that follows.
Statement: "Online learning has increased student participation."
Conclusions:
I. Students did not participate in physical classes.
II. Technology helps in engaging students.
Only Conclusion II follows
Both I and II follow
Neither I nor II follows
Only Conclusion I follows
Correct answer
Only Conclusion II follows
Why this answer is correct
Given,
Statement:
Online learning has increased student participation.
Conclusions:
I. Students did not participate in physical classes. - False (The statement says online learning "increased" participation, which implies that some participation existed before. It does not state that there was no participation in physical classes.)
II. Technology helps in engaging students. - True (The statement directly links online learning, which is a form of technology, with increased student participation. This indicates that technology is a tool that helps in engaging students.)
So, only conclusion II follows.
Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".
In the following question, a pair of words is given in capital letters, followed by five answer options consisting of word pairs. Choose the option in which the relationship between the two words most closely matches the relationship between the given pair. MAVERICK : CONFORMITY
Altruist : Selfishness
Ascetic : Indulgence
Demagogue : Populace
Iconoclast : Tradition
Correct answer
Iconoclast : Tradition
Why this answer is correct
The relationship between MAVERICK and CONFORMITY is that a MAVERICK is a person who rejects or does not follow CONFORMITY.
Let's analyze the given options:
Iconoclast : Tradition
An iconoclast is a person who attacks cherished beliefs, traditional institutions, or established values.
The relationship here is that an iconoclast is a person who rejects tradition.
This is the closest match to the relationship between the original pair.
Dilettante : Amateur
A dilettante is an amateur. These two words are synonyms, not antonyms or a relationship of opposition.
Ascetic : Monastic
An ascetic is a person who practices severe self-discipline and abstention, often for religious reasons.
Monastic refers to a monk or a style of life associated with monks.
While related, they are not opposites.
Demagogue : Populace
A demagogue is a political leader who seeks support by appealing to the desires and prejudices of ordinary people rather than by using rational argument.
A populace is the general body of people in a country or region. A demagogue manipulates the populace, but does not reject it.
Altruist : Benefactor
An altruist is a person unselfishly concerned with or devoted to the welfare of others.
A benefactor is a person who gives money or other help to a person or cause.
A benefactor is a type of altruist, so they are not opposites.
Therefore, the pair that most closely matches the relationship between MAVERICK and CONFORMITY is Iconoclast : Tradition.
Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".
In each of the following question, a pair of words (letter sequences) is given on the left-hand side of the double colon (::), which follows a certain alphabetical pattern. Identify the logic in the first pair and apply the same logic to the third word to find the correct corresponding word from the options.
RED : RFE :: TOP : ?
GAG
TPQ
KAK
MOM
Correct answer
TPQ
Why this answer is correct
The logic followed here is,
For 'RED' related to 'RFE':
Applying the same logic to 'TOP':

Choose the most appropriate option to complete the following series.
ab_dcabcd_ _bcdc_bcdca_cdc
bcadc
ccaab
abbcd
cadcb
Correct answer
ccaab
Why this answer is correct
Given series: ab_dcabcd_ _bcdc_bcdca_cdc
bcadc → abbdc/abcdc/abcdc/dbcdc/accdc → doesn’t follow any pattern
ccaab → abcdc/abcdc/abcdc/abcdc/abcdc → follows a certain pattern
abbcd → abadc/abcdb/bbcdc/cbcdc/adcdc → doesn’t follow any pattern
cadcb → abcdc/abcda/dbcdc/cbcdc/abcdc → doesn’t follow any pattern
Hence, “ccaab” is the correct answer.
