Answer : 1. "line segment"
Explanation :
Answer: A) line segment Explanation: As parabola is a locus of a point, which moves so that its distance from focus and directrix is always equal. The latus rectum of a conic section is the chord (line segment) that passes through the focus, is perpendicular to the major axis and has both endpoints on the curve. The length of the latus rectum is determined differently for each conic. The length of a parabola's latus rectum is 4p, where p is the distance from the focus to the vertex.

Answer : 1. "2Mg + O2 ----> 2MgO"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 2Mg + O2 ----> 2MgO Explanation: Given Equation is Mg + O2 → MgO Balancing the Chemical Equation is nothing but Conservation of Matter. As Matter is Neither created nor Destroyed, it must be conserved. Here we have 1 Mg and 2 O on the left side and 1 Mg and 1 O on the right side To balance that, add 1 Mg on the left side so that it becomes 2 Mg and 2 O on the left side i.e, 2 Mg + O2 → 2 MgO Here it has 2 Mg & 2 O on the left side and 2 Mg and 2 O on the right side and the Chemical equation is Balanced.

Answer : 1. "450.187"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 450.187 Explanation: Pattern is 3 3 x 3.5 = 10.5 10.5 x 3.5 = 36.75 36.75 x 3.5 = 128.625 128.625 x 3.5 = 450.187

Answer : 1. "Deducted from the balance sheet"
Explanation :
Answer: A) Deducted from the balance sheet Explanation: If an outstanding check of the previous month clears the bank (is paid by the bank) in the current month, you simply remove that check from the list of outstanding checks. If an outstanding check of the previous month does not clear the bank in the current month, the check will remain on the list of outstanding checks until the month that it does clear the bank. In the bank reconciliation process, the total amount of the outstanding checks is deducted from the balance appearing on the bank statement.

Answer : 4. "0"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 0 Explanation: Let assume the value of a,b &c that will satisfy the equation.so a=1,b=1,c= -1 or a=1,b= -1 &c=1 or a= -1,b=1,c=1here all three cases satisfy the equationassume any one a=1,b=1,c= -1 Hence (a+b)(b+c)(c+a)=(1+1)(1-1)(-1+1) = 0
