Question

Is g-h > 0?
(I) g > h
(II) $g^2>h^2$

• A. Statement (I) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (II) alone is not sufficient
• B. Statement (II) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (I) alone is not sufficient
• C. BOTH statements TOGETHER are sufficient, but NEITHER statement alone is sufficient
• D. EACH statement ALONE is sufficient

Answer 1

The correct option is A Statement (I) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (II) alone is not sufficient

(I) ⇒g−h>0⇒g−h>0
∴∴ (I) is sufficient to answer the question.
(II) ⇒g2⇒g2 is greater than h2h2. but g may not be greater than h. (For example, g might be -3 and h might be 2). Hence, (II) alone is not sufficient to answer the question.
