The correct answer is not listed
5 animals are going towards the river .
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Here we have , One rabbit saw six elephants while going to the river. Every elephant saw 2 monkeys going towards the river. Every monkey holds one parrot in their hand.We need to find How many animals are going towards the river . Let's find out:
- 1 rabbit saw 6 elephants while going to the river. i.e. rabbit is only going towards river !
- Every elephant saw 2 monkeys going towards the river. From the sentence , each of the 6 elephants saw 2 monkeys going towards the river, hence will be 6 x 2 = 12 monkeys going towards the river.
But, the statement does not explicitly say that “Every elephant saw 2 DIFFERENT monkeys…”, therefore implicit rules apply and infer that the 2 monkeys are the same. So , every elephant saw 2 monkeys!
- Now , every monkey holds 1 parrot in their hands. 2 parrots are going towards the river.
So , total number of animals is :
⇒ 
⇒ 
Therefore , 5 animals are going towards the river .
You would use the cosine rule for this as you have 2 lines and are given the angle between them
The angle can be figured out easily as the clock has 12 equal components, meaning each component is 360/12 which is 30
As there are 5 components between A and B the angle is 30*5 =150
You can plug all of this into the cosine rule
a^2= b^2+c^2-2bcCos(A)
So a = sqrt( 10^2 +7^2 -(2*10*7) cos150)
a=16.4 to 3 sf
since we know the endpoints of the circle, we know then that distance from one to another is really the diameter, and half of that is its radius.
we can also find the midpoint of those two endpoints and we'll be landing right on the center of the circle.

Using the law of sins:
Sin(angle) = Opposite Leg / Hypotenuse
Sin(30) = AB /10
Solve for AB:
AB = 10 * sin(30)
AB = 10 * 1/2
AB = 5
The answer is A.
