Answer : 1. "TRUE"
Explanation :

Answer: A) TRUE Explanation: Yes, a square is a rhombus. But a rhombus is not a square unless the interior angles are at right angles.   We know that, a square is a quadrilateral with all sides equal and all the interior angles are 90 deg i.e, at right angles.  Whereas a rhombus is also a quadrilateral with all sides equal but the interior angles are not at right angles. Hence, if the interior angles of a rhombus are all at right angles (90 deg), then it is square.

Explanation :

Answer: B) 1 Explanation: The product of a number and its reciprocal is always equals to 1.   For Example : Let the number be 4. Now, its reciprocal is 1/4 Hence, required product = 4 x 1/4 = 1.   Now, take the number as -15. Then its reciprocal is -1/15 Required product = -15 x -1/15 = 1.   Hence, the product of a number and its reciprocal is 1.

Answer : 4. "None of the statements is a fact."
Explanation :

Answer: D) None of the statements is a fact. Explanation: All baseball caps have brims, since baseball caps are hats (Fact 3) and all hats have brims (Fact 1). This rules out statement III—but it doesn’t follow that all caps, a category that may include caps that are not baseball caps, have brims (statement I). Statement II cannot be confirmed, either, since it is possible, given the information, that all baseball caps are black.

Answer : 3. "Rs. 3972"
Explanation :

Answer: C) Rs. 3972 Explanation: Let p = Rs. 100. Then, S.I is Rs. 50 and time = 5 years.  ∴ R = 100×50100×5= 10% p.a.   Now, p = Rs. 12,000 , T = 3 years and R = 10% p.a. C.I. = Rs. 12000×1+101003-1= Rs. 3972
