Answers
(b) My father’s only child would be me and therefore my daughter would be his granddaughter.
(a) Since Happy and Pushkar are siblings and Happy is the only daughter, therefore Pushkar is the son i.e. male.
(d). Cousin is by virtue of your birth in a particular family.
(c) Since Karan is in 3rd generation from Rahul and Karan’s gender is also not known, therefore although we are sure that Karan is Rahul’s Great-grandchild, we are unsure of his gender
(c) brother’s wife’s father in law = Father
Wife of father = Mother
Daughter of Mother = Sister
(c)
Pawni’s father’s wife = Pawani’s mother
Sister of Pawani’s mother = Pawani’s maternal aunt
Uncle of Pawani’s Maternal Aunt = Pawani’s maternal Grand father
Prateek’s mother’s mother = Prateek’s maternal Grand mother
Husband of Prateek’s maternal Grandmother = Prateek’s Maternal Grand father
Brother of Prateek’s Maternal Grandfather = Prateek’s maternal grandfather
Pawani’s maternal Grandfather = Prateek’s maternal grandfather
Hence they could be either cousins or siblings
(a)
Children of my wife = my children
Mother of my children = my wife
(d)
Wife of my mother in law’s only son = me
Therefore, it would be my child but the gender is unknown and hence cannot be determined.
(c)
Since, it is a niece, it can only be someone’s daughter and not son. Therefore option (a) and (d) are negated. Now, Niece is the daughter of brother or sister.
