75
65
55
45
Correct answer is B
10th number must be over 56 (as it increases the average)
55 x 9 = 495 = sum of first 9 numbers
56 x 10 = 560 = sum of all 10 numbers
560 - 495 = 65 = 10th number

\(\frac{3}{4}\)
\(\frac{1}{8}\)
\(\frac{1}{4}\)
Correct answer is C
Girl = \(\frac{1}{2}\)
Blue eyes = \(\frac{1}{4}\)
probability that she will give birth to a girl with blue eyes: \(\frac{1}{2}\) x \(\frac{1}{4}\)
= \(\frac{1}{8}\)

54º
72º
Correct answer is A
The sum of angles in a triangle = 180º
(180 - 108)º = 72º
Isosceles triangle has both two equal sides and two equal angles.
∠OSN = ∠SON = \(\frac{72}{2}\)
= 36º
In the diagram, MNR is a tangent to the circle centre O at N and ∠NOS = 108°. Find ∠OSN
72°
32°
36°
18°
Correct answer is C
The sum of angles in a triangle = 180º
(180 - 108)º = 72º
Isosceles triangle has both two equal sides and two equal angles.
∠OSN = ∠SON = \(\frac{72}{2}\)
= 36º
Given that sin (5x-28)° = cos (3x-50)", 0°≤ x ≤ 90°, find the value of x.

Correct answer is B
using the trial method by inserting each option in the equation.
Inserting 21º: sin([5 x 21] - 28) = cos([3 x 21] - 50)
sin(105 - 28) = cos (63 - 50)
sin 77º = cos 13º
where:
sin 77º = 0.9744
cos 13º = 0.9744
