Wow, I have impressed a lawyer!๐Ÿ˜‰ Thanks yaar!

I would like to be My Pet Dog in the next birth, primarily because, I have not known any other living being enjoying so many privileges and getting so much of love & affection, without ever lifting a finger in his life!๐Ÿ˜† My dog happens to be the laziest, most good-for-nothing creature who just knows to eat and sleep and sulk around without any reason.....and he is still loved and cherished by all of us! He is second in importance only to my kid in our House!!! I certainly want to be born as him in my next janam๐Ÿ˜ณ

Well, in all honesty, I have never thought about my writing skills as great! If I was any good, I would have surely channelized it into something substantial, maybe got into full time writing as a profession! But otherwise, English has always been my favourite language and writing has always been a side-hobby for me, so I guess a little of it rubs in the updates๐Ÿ˜ณ But I think, you guys really make me climb ''Chane Ki Jhad'' with all your compliments!๐Ÿ˜ƒ

I think I would like to take off Ram Kapoor's clothes (Chill, its not what you are thinking!๐Ÿ˜† Only his Shirt!) and see if he is really that fat or has he padded himself with Cotton....I mean who would get turned on by a Hero with a Tummy sticking out๐Ÿคข But overall he comes across to be appealing, somehow!

MT๐Ÿ˜Š

PS: I think the secret of my reasonably good answers might be my fasting for Shivratri....my mind works better on an empty stomach rather than a stuffed one......which is not saying much, because I am constantly eating something or the else๐Ÿ˜ณ

Excellent MT ๐Ÿ‘ Why do you want to make me cry? ๐Ÿ˜ญ why do u want to date my Abhi? but I caught you in the next question! You have stated chal hat!! so he is still mine ๐Ÿ˜†

Well, you evaded my question on dowry very efficiently. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

BTW, yeh Simran Kapoor kaun hai ? ๐Ÿ˜‰

I am like my sasur in KBC... round two shuroo...

If you are given an open ticket to travel to any part of the world, which country or city would you choose to go first? ๐Ÿ˜Š

Why is that in Indian cinema, they show men crying? ๐Ÿ˜†

What did one ocean say to another?

What number am I? (please read clues given below)
My first is a number, my second another,
And each, I assure you, will rhyme with the other.
My first you will find is one-fifth of my second,
And truly my whole a long period reckoned.
Yet my first and my second
When added together will make but two dozen.

What does MCMLXXXVI mean? (the question is in Roman Letters)๐Ÿ˜ƒ

How are ellipses used in real life? who uses ellipses? ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

You had put a Crying Smiley near the Abhishek choice, hence I wrote that I want to make you cry, by dating your Abhi! Why I want to date him? I mean if you give me choices like Samir Soni and Ranveer......do I have any other option left?๐Ÿ˜•


Well, you evaded my question on dowry very efficiently. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

I have not avoided it, I just want to write a well-thought of answer....arre, ek ladke ki maa hoon, I am also planning to blind-rob my future Bahu.....๐Ÿ˜† On a serious note, I have very strong views on it, I want to pen it properly and then post it!๐Ÿ˜Š

BTW, yeh Simran Kapoor kaun hai ? ๐Ÿ˜‰

Iraq! I want to go and find Saddam Hussein's ''Hidden Nuclear Arsenal'' that poor Mr. Bush has still not been able to find!๐Ÿ˜† You know, I wanna gift the ''Nuclear Arsenals'' to Georgie Porgie when he lands in India! (Probably drop them over his empty head๐Ÿ˜ก)

Why is that in Indian cinema, they show men crying?

Indian men specialize in making their women cry in ''Real'' Life, hence as a compensation of sort's, they do the honors of sobbing their hearts out in ''Reel" Life!


What did one ocean say to another?

Nothing....They just waved! (If you can these PJ's from the Net, I can get the answers from the same place!!!๐Ÿ˜†)

Four Score๐Ÿ˜ƒ (A Score stands for the number 20 and 20 + 4 is equal to 24 which makes 2 dozen!)

What does MCMLXXXVI mean? (the question is in Roman Letters)๐Ÿ˜ƒ

MCMLXXXVI = M + CM + L + XXX + V + I
= 1000 + 900 + 50 + 30 + 5 + 1
= 1986
MCMLXXXVI refers to the number / year 1986!


What is an Ellipse? ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

In mathematics, an ellipse is a plane algebraic curve where the sum of the distances from any point on the curve to two fixed points is constant. The two fixed points are called foci (plural of focus).

Why does a circle have 360 degrees? ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

A line of ancient peoples (Sumerians, Akkadians, and Babylonians) who lived in Mesopotamia (now southern Iraq) invented writing, observed the skies, and invented a 360-degree circle to describe their findings. About 3000 BC, the Sumerians invented writing. They also had a calendar, dating from 2400 BC, that divided the year into 12 months of 30 days each, that is, 360 days.

The Sumerians watched the Sun, Moon, and the five visible planets (Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn), primarily for omens. They did not try to understand the motions physically. They did, however, notice the circular track of the Sun's annual path across the sky and knew that it took about 360 days to complete one year's circuit. Consequently, they divided the circular path into 360 degrees to track each day's passage of the Sun's whole journey. This probably happened about 2400 BC.

That's how we got a 360 degree circle. Around 1500 BC, Egyptians divided the day into 24 hours, though the hours varied with the seasons originally. Greek astronomers made the hours equal. About 300 to 100 BC, the Babylonians subdivided the hour into base-60 fractions: 60 minutes in an hour and 60 seconds in a minute. The base 60 of their number system lives on in our time and angle divisions.

An 100-degree circle makes sense for base 10 people like ourselves. But the base-60 Babylonians came up with 360 degrees and we cling to their ways-4,400 years later.๐Ÿ˜ƒ




Anything else, Ms. Einstein????๐Ÿ˜† Bachhu, teri baari aane de......๐Ÿ˜‰Also, do tell me if my answers were correct or not!๐Ÿ˜Š

๐Ÿ˜† Devi, mein bus Sim ko yeh dikhana chahti thi, agar woh ser hain, toh hum bhi sawa ser hai!!!

Maths, aur mein? In 10 years of my schooling (From 1st till 10th) I did not pass a single test, quiz, viva or an exam in Maths....I am not exaggerating! Seriously, not a single one! Half the trees in the World must have been felled to make up my answer sheet's on which I used to give my Maths Re-test!๐Ÿ˜ณ

The one and only time I managed to pass my Maths exam in first attempt was in my 10th Boards......I think all the God's must have been in my favour that day!๐Ÿ˜† That was it, I took up Arts and there was no more Maths in my life.....till my husband, who is a Finance Specialist came into my life........ab toh Maths se janam bhar ka nata jud gaya hai๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜†

MT

PS: Sim, one more question on Maths......and I will become the ''Betaal'' to your ''Vikram''.....tu boli aur mein Udi๐Ÿ˜†

๐Ÿ‘ google ki poori istemaal huwa hai. Your first two math answers are correct.

but you did not answer my last two exactly.

The question was How are ellipses used in real life? who uses ellipses?
But you have just searched for the meaning of elipses on google. plagiarization ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

The shape of a spotlight on a planar surface is in most
cases an ellipses. If you cut a cylinder at an angle, you will get elliptical sections. lenses and mirrors can be elliptical in shape.

Some tanks are elliptical and you find ellipses in architecture too. On a bicyle the chainwheel is approximately eliptical in shape. ๐Ÿ˜Š

now the last question was why is there 360 degrees in a cirle?

The degree is derived from the Babylonian base 60 numerical system. Hours and minutes are similarly divided into 60's. There are minutes of time and minutes of angle - there are 60 minutes in a degree, and, similarly, there are seconds of time and seconds of degree - there are 60 seconds in a minute, 3600 in a degree. ๐Ÿ˜Š

the ratio of the perimeter of a regular hexagon to the circumference of the circumscribed circle equals a number which in modern notaiton is given by 57/60 + 36/(60^2) (the Babylonians used the sexagesimal system, i.e., their base was 60 rather than 10).

The Babylonians knew, of course, that the perimeter of a hexagon is exactly equal to six times the radius of the circumscribed circle, in fact that was evidently the reason why they chose to divide the circle into 360 degrees. The actual ratio that the Babylonians talk about is 6r/(2r*Pi) = 3/Pi, which is about 0.95493. They say it's 24/25 = .96. And you might ask why we chose Pi as the letter to represent the number 3.141592. It's Pi as in Perimeter - the letter Pi in Greek is like our letter P.

Round 3 this time I will try to give you a quesiton for which the answer should not be available on Google ๐Ÿ˜†

calculate volume of liquid in a cylinder (not full) lying horizontally.?


This is a fairly simple problem. A cylindrical storage tank has a diameter of 6m and a height of 5m.
What is the volume of
the storage tank?? give me the answer in cubic metres please ๐Ÿ˜ƒ
