Question: A fair coin is tossed 43 times. What is the number of cases where number of ‘Head’ > number of ‘Tail’? (A) 2^43 (B) (2^43)-43 (C) 2^42 (D) None of the above. Answer: No. of heads > No. of tails => No. of heads can be 22, 23, 24... 43 Therefore  43C22 + 43C23 + 43C24 .. 43C43 We know that 43C0 + 43C1 + 43C2 ... 43C43 = 2^43 We also know know that our answer has 22 terms which are 43C22 + 43C23 + 43C24 .. 43C43 These 22 terms are equal to = 43C0 + 43C1 + 43C2 .. 43C21 Both of them are equal and add up to 2^43
Question: At what time between 2 and 3 the angle between the hands of clock is 60 degrees? Answer: At 2 o'clock the angle is 60 degree. After t minutes past 2: Minute hand from the vertical = 6t Hour hand from the vertical = 60 + 0.5t Required angle is : 6t - (60 + 0.5t) = 60 ie.  5.5t = 120 Therefore ,  t = 240/11 = 21 9/11 minutes, At 2:21:9/11th min the angle between the hands of a clock would be 60 degrees.
