1. If \(\sec \theta = \frac{x}{y}\) and \(x \ne y\), then which one is greater between \(x\) and \(y\)?

2. If in triangle \( \triangle ABC \), the sum of the medians AD, BE, and CF is \(x\), and the sum of the sides is \(y\), then the relationship between \(x\) and \(y\) is —

(a) \(x\gt y\) (b) \(x\lt y\) (c) \(x= y\) (d) None of the above

3. Let the length of the space diagonal of the cube be \(x\), the length of a face diagonal be \(y\), and the edge of the cube be \(a\). Then, \[ x = a\sqrt{3} \Rightarrow a = \cfrac{x}{\sqrt{3}} \quad \text{— (i)} \] And, \[ y = a\sqrt{2} \Rightarrow a = \cfrac{y}{\sqrt{2}} \quad \text{— (ii)} \] Comparing equations (i) and (ii): \[ \cfrac{x}{\sqrt{3}} = \cfrac{y}{\sqrt{2}} \Rightarrow x = \cfrac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{2}} \cdot y \Rightarrow x = \cfrac{\sqrt{6}}{2} \cdot y \] \(\therefore\) The length of the space diagonal of a cube is \(\cfrac{\sqrt{6}}{2}\) times the length of its face diagonal.

(a) undefined (b) positive (c) negative (d) zero

4. If \(x\) is in inverse proportion to \(y\), and \(y\) is in inverse proportion to \(z\), then \(x\) will The statement is true.

5. If the volume of a cone is \(x\), the base area is \(y\), and the height is \(z\), then the value of \(\cfrac{x}{yz}\) will be 3.
