Answer : 3. "164"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 164 Explanation: For a triangle, we need 3 non-collinear points. So with 12 points (when all the 12 are such that any three non-collinear is12C3. But among them 8 points are collinear.   If all these 8 points are different we get 8C3 triangles as they are collinear.   In 12C3 triangles, we do not get 8C3 triangles   Therefore, The number of triangles we get = 12C3-8C3 = 164

Answer : 2. "400 mts"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 400 mts Explanation: Let the length of the 1st train = L mts Speed of 1st train = 48 kmph Now the length of the 2nd train = L/2 mts Speed of 2nd train = 42 kmph Let the length of the bridge = D mts Distance = L + L/2 = 3L/2 Relative speed = 48 + 42 = 90 kmph = 90 x 5/18 = 25 m/s(opposite) Time = 12 sec => 3L/2x25 = 12 => L = 200 mts Now it covers the bridge in 45 sec => distance = D + 200 Time = 45 sec Speed = 48 x5/18 = 40/3 m/s => D + 200/(40/3) = 45 => D = 600 - 200 = 400 mts Hence, the length of the bridge = 400 mts.
