SSC CPO - 10 Nov 2022 - Shift 1 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q127

What is the length of the longest pole that can fit itself in a hall 60 feet long, 30 feet broad and 20 feet high?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 70 feet

Given that

 The length of a hall( l )= 60 feet

 The breadth of a hall (b) = 30 feet

 The height of a hall (h) = 20 feet

The length of the longest pole that can fit in this hall = the diagonal of this hall

= √(l2 + b2 + h2) = √(3600 + 900 + 400) = √4900 = 70 feet
