AREA
Triangle: A = (ab)/2 , in which a is the base and b the height.
Square:A = a2, in which a is one of the sides.
Rectangle:A = ab, in which a is the base and b the height.
Trapezoid:A = (h(a + b))/2, in which h is the height, a the longer parallel side, and b the shorter.
Regular pentagon:A = 1.720a2, in which a is one of the sides.
Regular hexagonA = 2.598a2, in which a is one of the sides.
Regular octagonA = 4.828a2, in which a is one of the sides.

TEMPERATURE SCALES
Degrees Fahrenheit to Degrees Celsius:TC = 5/9 (TF – 32)
Degrees Celsius to Degrees Fahrenheit:TF = 9/5 TC + 32
Degrees Celsius to Kelvins:TK = TC + 273.15

Mean and Median
The arithmetic mean, also called the average, of a series of quantities is obtained by finding the sum of the quantities and dividing it by the number of quantities. In the series 1, 3, 5, 18, 19, 20, 25, the mean or average is 13—in other words, 91 divided by 7.
The median of a series is that point which so divides it that half the quantities are on one side, half on the other. In the above series, the median is 18.
The median often better expresses the common-run, since it is not, as is the mean, affected by an excessively high or low figure. In the series 1, 3, 4, 7, 55, the median of 4 is a truer expression of the common-run than is the mean of 14.


MISCELLANEOUS
1.Distance in feet traveled by falling body:
d = 16t2, in which t is the time in seconds.
Speed of sound in feet per second through any given temperature of air:
take the square root of (273 + t), in which t is the temperature Centigrade, multiply it by 1087, and divide the result by 16.52.

2.Cost in cents of operation of electrical device:
C = (Wtc)/1000, in which W is the number of watts,t the time in hours, and c the cost in cents per kilowatt-hour.

3.Conversion of matter into energy (Einstein’s Theorem):
E = mc2, in which E is the energy in ergs, m the mass of the matter in grams, and c the speed of light in centimeters per second: (c2 = 9 × 1020)m

NITI AYOG......................

NITI Ayog :- The Government has replaced Planning Commission with a new institution named NITI Aayog (National Institution for Transforming India). A cabinet Resolution issued today gave details of the new institutions.  The institutional framework of government has developed and matured over the years.   This has allowed the development of domain expertise which allows us the chance to increase the specificity of functions given to institutions.  Specific to the planning process, there is a need to separate as well as energize the distinct ‘process’ of governance from the ‘strategy’ of governance. 1).

Coding and Decoding ...........[competitive. exam prep.... topic 20]

Image
Coding is a system of signals. This is a method of transmitting information in the form of codes or signals without it being known by a third person. The person who transmits the code or signal, is called the sender and the person who receives it, is called the receiver. Transmitted codes or signals are decoded on the other side by the receiver—this is known as decoding. Most competitive exams have a dedicated section of Coding –Decoding in Reasoning or Mental Ability. Many of students and readers find difficulty to solve questions based on Coding – Decoding in Mental Aptitude. The Coding and Decoding Test is set up to judge the candidate’s ability. Coding and decoding tips are very useful to those who are preparing for the attending the bank exam IBPS, SBI, LIC AAO, UPSC, IAS, CAT, XAT, MAT, SSC, GATE, and other competitive exams. We have also published the Solved examples for the coding and decoding aptitude. Coding is a process of sending a message from master to slave that

Calendar ........[competitive. exam prep.... topic 29]

Image
 Most of the students are having difficulties in solving the Calendar problems. The number of days more than the complete number of weeks in a given period, are called odd days. For example : (1) In an ordinary year (of 365 days) there are 52 weeks and one odd day. (2) In a leap year (of 366 days) there are 52 weeks and two odd days. What is the Leap and Ordinary year ? Every year which is exactly divisible by 4 such as 1988, 1992, 1996 et. is called a leap year. Also every 4th century is a leap year. The other centuries, although divisible by 4, are not leap years. Thus, for a century to be a leap year, it should be exactly divisible by 400. For example : (1) 400, 800, 1200, etc are leap years since they are exactly divisible by 400. (2) 700, 600, 500 etc are not leap years since they are not exactly divisible by 400. How to find number of odd days :An ordinary year has 365 days. If we divide 365 by 7, we get, 52 as quotient and 1 as remainder. Thus, we may say tha
