Q3. Find the minimum number of straight lines required to make the given figure.
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:
The figure may be labelled as shown.
The horizontal lines are DE, FH, IL and BC i.e. 4 in number.
The slanting lines are AC, DO, FN, IM, AB, EM and HN i.e. 7 in number.
Thus, there are 4 + 7 = 11 straight lines in the figure.
Q4.
Directions: Study the following information carefully and answer the questions given below:
Poverty measurement is an unsettled issue, both conceptually and methodologically. Since poverty is a process as well as outcome; many come out of it while others may be falling into it. The net effect
of these two parallel processes is a proportion commonly identified as the ‘head count ratio’, but these ratios hide the fundamental dynamism that characterizes poverty in practice. The most recent poverty reestimates by an expert group has also missed the crucial dynamism. In a study conducted on 13,000 households which represented the entire country in 1993-94 and again on 2004-05, it was found that in the ten-year period 18.2% rural population moved out of poverty whereas another 22.1% fell into it over this period. This net increase of about four percentage points was seen to have a cons variation across stales and regions.
Which of the following is a conclusion which can be drawn from the facts stated in the above paragraph?
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:
Process of poverty measurement needs to take into account various factors to tackle its dynamic nature

Q7. Find the number of triangles in the given figure.
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:
The figure may be labelled as shown.
The simplest triangles are ABJ, ACJ, BDH, DHF, CIE and GIE i.e. 6 in number.
The triangles composed of two components each are ABC, BDF, CEG, BHJ, JHK, JKI and CJI i.e. 7 in number.
There is only one triangle JHI which is composed of four components.
Thus, there are 6 + 7 + 1 = 14 triangles in the given figure.
