CAT Question Answers: Algebra
The setting and the form of question paper for CAT-Quant. is not a routine matter, the types of questions and the format keep changing with every session.
There are certain topics like Algebra, Functions and Geometry which are repeatedly tested in the CAT Questions.
Algebra includes Polynomials, Progressions and Inequalities.
Let's pick up Polynomials.
In polynomials the stress is on Quadratics or Quadratic Inequalities.
Consider a Quadratic Polynomial f(x)= a x^2 +b x + c
It represents a Parabolic Curve;
If a> 0, then the Convexity is downwards with minimum value at x = -b/(2a)
If a<0,>Convexity is upwards with maximum value at x = -b/(2a)
Taking D = b^2 -4ac,
(1) If D <>, the polynomial has no real zeroes
(2) If D = 0, the polynomial has two equal zeroes , both equal to -b /(2a)
(3) If D > 0, it has two real and unequal zeroes
This shows the kinds of results from such an equation.

5. one is an INSTRUMENT of the other
6. one is at a LOWER/HIGHER INTENSITY than the other
In simple words, the relation can be defined in terms of WHO, WHAT, WHERE, WHY, WHEN, HOW...
Students use their knowledge of Roots, Prefix and Suffix to crack questions on Analogies.
Try out some more techniques, put your doubts on Analogies as Comment to this post.
