Question:

Ananyaa rolls an ordinary dice and gets the number 2 on the face of the dice. What shall be the square of the number that lies exactly opposite on the dice to the number that Ananyaa got on the face of the dice?

Options:

25

9

1

16

Correct Answer:

25

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (1) → 25

1. Identify the Opposite Face

In a standard dice, the sum of the numbers on opposite faces is always 7.

  • Ananyaa got a 2 on the top face.
  • To find the number on the opposite (bottom) face, we use the formula:

$7 - \text{number on top} = \text{number on bottom}$

$7 - 2 = 5$

So, the number exactly opposite to 2 is 5.

2. Calculate the Square

The question asks for the square of the number on the opposite face:

$\text{Square of } 5 = 5^2$

$5 \times 5 = 25$

Final Answer:

The square of the number on the opposite face is 25
