Boat and stream part 1

1.Down stream/Up stream
In water, the direction along the stream is called downstream. And, the direction against the stream is called upstream.

2.If the speed of a boat in still water is u km/hr and the speed of the stream is v km/hr, then:
Speed downstream = (u + v) km/hr.
Speed upstream = (u - v) km/hr.

3.If the speed downstream is a km/hr and the speed upstream is b km/hr, then:
Speed in still water =1/2(a + b) km/hr.
Rate of stream =1/2(a - b) km/hr.

Geometry

ज्यामिति - Geometry   Hello friends! Today we are going to share a post on GEOMETRY which is an important Chapter for class 9,10,11,12 In Geometry there is many concept and some are more clear but some concepts is clear and give a doubt. We here try to clear you doubts. I request you to I you have an Question then comment we try to solve it and clear your all doubts. You join us on Facebook by All exam Gk And Daily Updated Questions.  Polygon - A polygon is a closed shaped figure with three or more sides Here are some properties of Polygon (i) Sum of all the exterior angle of a polygon= 360°  (ii) Each exterior angle of a regular polygon =  360° (iii) Sum of all the interior angles of a polygon = (n – 2) × 180°  (iv) Each interior angle of a regular polygon = (v) No. of diagonals of a polygon = (vi) The ratio of sides a polygon to the diagonals of a polygon is 2 : (n – 3) (vii) Ratio of interior angle to exterior angle of a reg...

Percentage problems tricks(SSC,BANK,PO)

Percentage is a fraction whose denominator is always 100. x percentage is represented by x%. To express x% as a fraction :  We know x% =  x /100 Thus 10% =  10 /100 (means 10 parts out of 100 parts) =  1 /10 (means 1 part out of 10 parts) To express x/y as a percentage : We know that  x /y  = ( x /y× 100 ) Thus  1 /4 = (  1 /4 ×100 )% = 25% and 0.8 = (  8 /10 ×100 )% = 80% If the price of a commodity increases by R%, then reduction in consumption as not to increase the expenditure is- [  R / (100+R) ×100 ] % If the price of a commodity decreases by R%, then the increase in consumption as not to decrease the expenditure is - [  R / (100-R) ×100 ] % Result on Population :  Let the population of a town be P now and suppose increases the rate of R% per annum, then : Population after n years = P ( 1+  R /100 ) n   Population  n years ago =  P  / ( 1+  R /100 ) n  ...
