Intercepted Arc
<ABC is an angle formed by a tangent and
chord.
Its intercepted arc is the minor arc from A to
B.
m<ABC = 60
The formulas for all THREE of these situations are the same:
Two Tangents:
<ABC is formed by two tangents intersecting
outside of circle O.
The intercepted arcs are minor arc AC and
major arc AC. These two arcs together
comprise the entire circle.
Special situation for this set up: It can be proven that <ABC and central
<AOC are supplementary. Thus the angle formed by the two tangents and
its first intercepted arc also add to 180.
Two Secants:
<ACE is formed by two secants intersecting
outside of circle O.
The intercepted arcs are minor arcs BD and
AE.
26) The standard deviation is a statistic that tells you how tightly all the various
examples are clustered around the mean in a set of data. When the examples are
pretty tightly bunched together and the bell-shaped curve is steep, the standard
deviation is small. When the examples are spread apart and the bell curve is
relatively flat, that tells you have a relatively large standard deviation.
27) n(A B C) = n(A) + n (B)+ n(C)
n(A B) n(A C) n(B C)
+ n(A B C)
28) n(Aonly) = n(A) n(A C) n(A B) + n(A B C)
29) Dividend = Divisor * Quotient + Remainder
30) LCM * HCF = Product of 2 numbers.
31) 1 + 2 + 3 ..n = n * n+1 / 2
32) Sum of squares of 1st n natural numbers = n (n+1)(2n+1) / 6
33) Sum of cubes of 1st n natural numbers = [n (n+1)/2]2

1. When equal distances are covered in different speed then we take the
harmonic mean
Av Speed = 2ab / a + b
2. Different distances in same time we take AM
Av Speed is = a + b / 2

trap. For example, what is the probability that a number amongst the first
1000 positive integers is divisible by 8? Dont start counting the multiples of
8! The figure of 1000 is a red herring. Use a little common sense. The
numbers will be 8,16,24,32So, 1 in every 8 numbers is a multiple of 8, even
if you consider the first million integers. So Probability is 1/8

51) Sum of interior angles of a polygon with n sides = (n-2)*180
52) Degree measure of one angle in a regular polygon with n sides
= {(n-2)*180 }/n
53) When multiplying or dividing both sides of an inequality by a negative
number, the inequality sign reverses.
x < y => -(-x) > y => x > -y
54) Fraction > (fraction)2

66) If a DS question simply asks whether a, b, c and d are consecutive integers; use
your brain. It has just asked u to answer if they are consecutive, not if they are
consecutive in order.
67) Measure of an angle of a cyclic polygon = 180 360/n , where n is the number
of sides of the polygon.
68) Sometimes, mistakes might also be committed by simply misreading the
statement. Eg
Both Tim and Harry received an acre of land more than Neel => t = n + 1, h = n + 1
Tim and Harry received an acre more than Neel => t + h = n+1

70) Two circles will touch each or intersect each other if the distance between their
centers d is such that
R r d R + r, where R and r are the radii of the two circles
71) Remainder of less than two means not just one; it also means remainder of zero.
