Q.9686·Miscellaneous·2016·EasyIt is not luck but labour that makes men. Luck, says an American writer, is ever waiting for something to turn up; labour with keen eyes and strong will always turns up something. Luck lies in bed and wishes the postman would bring him news of a legacy; labour turns out at six and with busy pen and ringing hammer lays the foundation of competence. Luck whines, labour watches. Luck relies on chance; labour on character. Luck slips downwards to self-indulgence; labour strides upwards and aspires to independence. The conviction, therefore, is extending that diligence is the mother of good luck; in other words, that a man's success in life will be proportionate to his efforts, to his industry, to his attention to small things. “ ____Labour turns out at six and with busy pen and ringing hammer lays the foundation of competence.” This statement meansView question
Q.9687·Miscellaneous·2016·EasyConsider the following statements : 1. If n ≥ 3 and m ≥ 3 are distinct positive integers, then the sum of the exterior angles of a regular polygon of m sides is different from the sum of the exterior angles of a regular polygon of n sides. 2. Let m, n be integers such that m > n ≥ 3 . Then the sum of the interior angles of a regular polygon of m sides is greater than the sum of the interior angles of a regular polygon of n sides, and their sum is (m + n)π/2 .

Q.9689·Miscellaneous·2016·EasyThe avowed purpose of the exact sciences is to establish complete intellectual control over experience in terms of precise rules which can be formally set out and empirically tested. Could that ideal be fully achieved, all truth and all error could henceforth be ascribed to an exact theory of the universe, while we who accept this theory would be relieved of any occasion for exercising our personal judgement. We should only have to follow the rules faithfully. Classical mechanics approaches this ideal so closely that it is often thought to have achieved it. But this leaves out of account the element of personal judgement involved in applying the formulae of mechanics to the facts of experience. The purpose of the exact sciences is toView question
