I think that couple of things are going
here. "mocked" conveys past tense.
The clause "yet within ...." is also
conveying something happened
in the past. So I think we need
past perfect to show continued
effect although in the past.

Experts kindly comment.

IMO A. In this sentence "will" is a noun and not a verb. We need past perfect in this scenario.

IMO D. The subject here is languages and
it requires a plural verb.

I agree the answer should be A since the remainder when q divided by 17 or k divided by 13 will be 0.
Maybe my approach is not very intuitive, but 13q=17k so for q,k to be integers the remainder when q/17
will be 0 as k should be a multiple of 13.

IMO E
Multiply both the denominator and numerator by (root n+1) + (root n). Then the denominator
has the form of (a+b)(a-b)=a^2-b^2 and in this case evaluates to 1. So the numerator is
now (root n+1) + (root n). So answer is E.

Sorry but still confused. If C was exactly
below B, how can we assume BC is 10?
Since BC is 10 at an angle.

Thanks for the reply. But C is given southeast of B, not south of B,
hence not directly below but at an angle of 135.

Maybe I am slow to pick this up...could anyone please elaborate why the minimum distance is 125^1/2.
Am I assuming correct that angle ABC is 135 degrees and the minimum should be hyp AC formed by the extended
right angled triangle. Kindly correct my thinking.
