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.​​
