Each question is followed by two statements, I and II. Mark the answer:

1.If the question can be answered by using one of the statements alone, but cannot be answered using the other statement alone.

2.If the question can be answered by using either statement alone.

3. If the question can be answered by using both statements together, but cannot be answered using either statement alone.

4. If the question cannot be answered even by using both statements together.

Arrange the 3 shapes - a square, an equilateral triangle and a circle, in order from the smallest area to the largest area.

I. The perimeter of each shape is the same.

II.The circumference of the circle is 22 cm.

Let’s break it down and get right to the point:

- The question: Arrange square, equilateral triangle, and circle by area, smallest to largest.

- Statement I: Perimeter of each shape is the same.

- This lets us express each shape’s area in terms of a common perimeter. The ratios are always the same—triangle < square < circle.

- So, you can answer the question with just this statement.

- Statement II: Circumference of the circle is 22 cm.

- You only know the circle’s area, nothing about the other shapes.

- You can’t answer with just this.

Option 1: If you can ONLY answer with one statement (but not the other), pick this.

Option 2: If either alone works, pick this.

Option 3: If you need both together, pick this.

Option 4: If even both aren’t enough, pick this.

Here’s the thing:

- Only Statement I lets you solve it.

- Statement II on its own is useless for the question.

- So the right answer is Option 1.
