    ∵ 45° ≡ $ 9000
    Angle of diff. of money spent on Hockey and Football = 55°

    ∴ 55° ≡
    9000
    		× 55° = $ 11000
    45°

    Correct Option: A

    Angle of the difference of votes of the winner and the nearest rival = 120 – 100 = 20°
    ∴ 360° ≡ 720

    ∴ 20° ≡
    720
    		× 20 = 40
    360

    Correct Option: A

    Corresponding angle of labour and supervision combined
    = 90° + 54° = 144°
    ∵ 360° ≡ 1500000

    ∴ 144° ≡
    1500000
    		× 144
    360

    = $ 600000

    Correct Option: C

    Corresponding angle of labour and supervision combined
    = 90° + 54° = 144°
    ∵ 360° ≡ 1500000

    ∴ 144° ≡
    1500000
    		× 144
