Section – A
Q1. Choose the correct options in the following questions:
- Function \( f: R \to R, f(x) = 3x – 5 \) is:
(a) one-one only
(b) onto only
(c) one-one and onto
(d) none of these
Answer: (c) one-one and onto
Explanation: For one-one, \( f(x_1) = f(x_2) \) implies \( 3x_1 – 5 = 3x_2 – 5 \), so \( x_1 = x_2 \). For onto, solve \( y = 3x – 5 \), \( x = (y + 5)/3 \), which is defined for all \( y \in R \). Hence, bijective. - Relation given by \( R = \{(1,1), (2,2), (1,2), (2,1)\} \) is:
(a) reflexive only
(b) symmetric only
(c) transitive only
(d) equivalence relation
Answer: (d) equivalence relation
Explanation: Reflexive: (1,1), (2,2) present. Symmetric: (1,2) and (2,1) present. Transitive: (1,2) and (2,1) imply (1,1), which holds. Hence, equivalence relation. - \( \cos^{-1}\left(\cos \frac{5\pi}{3}\right) \) is equal to:
(a) \( \frac{\pi}{3} \)
(b) \( \frac{2\pi}{3} \)
(c) \( \frac{\pi}{2} \)
(d) \( \frac{\pi}{3} \)
Answer: (a) \( \frac{\pi}{3} \)
Explanation: \( \cos \frac{5\pi}{3} = \cos (2\pi – \frac{\pi}{3}) = \cos \frac{\pi}{3} = \frac{1}{2} \). \( \cos^{-1} (\frac{1}{2}) = \frac{\pi}{3} \) (range of \( \cos^{-1} \) is [0, \( \pi \)]). - If \( \left[\begin{array}{rr}1 & -x \\ 14 & -3\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{rr}1 & 8 \\ 4 & -3\end{array}\right] \), then value of \( x \) is:
(a) 8
(b) -4
(c) 3
(d) -8
Answer: (d) -8
Explanation: Equate elements: \( -x = 8 \) so \( x = -8 \). Check second row: 14 ≠ 4 (likely a typo in question; assuming intent was to match). - If order of matrix \( A \) is \( 2 \times 3 \) and order of matrix \( B \) is \( 3 \times 5 \), then order of matrix \( BA \) is:
(a) \( 5 \times 2 \)
(b) \( 2 \times 5 \)
(c) \( 5 \times 3 \)
(d) \( 3 \times 2 \)
Answer: (a) \( 5 \times 2 \)
Explanation: For \( BA \), inner dimensions match (3 = 3), result is \( 3 \times 5 \) × \( 2 \times 3 \) = \( 5 \times 2 \). - (vi is missing in original; skipping to vii)
\( \frac{d}{dx} \left[ \tan^{-1} (e^x) \right] \) is equal to:
(a) \( e^x \tan^{-1} e^x \)
(b) \( \frac{e^x}{1 + e^{2x}} \)
(c) (missing)
(d) \( e^x \sec^{-1} x \)
Answer: (b) \( \frac{e^x}{1 + e^{2x}} \)
Explanation: Derivative of \( \tan^{-1} u \) is \( \frac{1}{1 + u^2} \cdot \frac{du}{dx} \). Here, \( u = e^x \), \( \frac{du}{dx} = e^x \), so \( \frac{e^x}{1 + (e^x)^2} = \frac{e^x}{1 + e^{2x}} \). - Critical point of the function \( f(x) = x^2 – 10x + 2 \) is:
(a) \( x = 4 \)
(b) \( x = 6 \)
(c) \( x = 5 \)
(d) \( x = 2 \)
Answer: (c) \( x = 5 \)
Explanation: \( f'(x) = 2x – 10 = 0 \), so \( x = 5 \). - \( \int 3x^2 \, dx \) is equal to:
(a) \( x + c \)
(b) \( x^2 + c \)
(c) \( x^3 + c \)
(d) \( x^4 + c \)
Answer: (c) \( x^3 + c \)
Explanation: \( \int 3x^2 \, dx = 3 \cdot \frac{x^3}{3} = x^3 + c \). - \( \int_0^{\pi/2} (\sin^{1/2} x + \cos^{1/2} x) \, dx \) is equal to:
(a) 0
(b) \( \frac{\pi}{2} \)
(c) \( \frac{\pi}{3} \)
(d) \( \frac{\pi}{4} \)
Answer: None (correct answer is 2)
Explanation: This integral evaluates to approximately 2 (numerical or substitution method), not listed. - Degree of differential equation \( \frac{d^2 y}{dx^2} – 2 \frac{dy}{dx} + 3y = 0 \) is:
(a) 3
(b) 2
(c) 1
(d) 0
Answer: (b) 2
Explanation: Highest derivative is \( \frac{d^2 y}{dx^2} \), so degree is 2. - If \( \vec{a} \cdot \vec{b} = |\vec{a} \times \vec{b}| \), then angle between vector \( \vec{a} \) and vector \( \vec{b} \) is:
(a) \( \frac{\pi}{2} \)
(b) \( \frac{\pi}{6} \)
(c) \( \frac{\pi}{4} \)
(d) \( \frac{\pi}{3} \)
Answer: (c) \( \frac{\pi}{4} \)
Explanation: \( |\vec{a}| |\vec{b}| \cos \theta = |\vec{a}| |\vec{b}| \sin \theta \), so \( \tan \theta = 1 \), \( \theta = \frac{\pi}{4} \). - If \( \vec{a} \cdot \vec{b} = 0 \), then angle between vectors \( \vec{a} \) and \( \vec{b} \) is:
(a) \( \frac{\pi}{2} \)
(b) \( \frac{\pi}{6} \)
(c) \( \frac{\pi}{4} \)
(d) \( \frac{\pi}{3} \)
Answer: (a) \( \frac{\pi}{2} \)
Explanation: Dot product zero implies perpendicular vectors, \( \theta = 90^\circ \). - Direction ratios of line given by \( \frac{x-1}{3} = \frac{2y+6}{12} = \frac{1-z}{-7} \) are:
(a) \( <3, 12, -7> \)
(b) \( <3, -6, 7> \)
(c) \( <3, 6, 7> \)
(d) \( <3, 6, -7> \)
Answer: (d) \( <3, 6, -7> \)
Explanation: Rewrite: \( \frac{x-1}{3} = \frac{y+3}{6} = \frac{1-z}{-7} \), direction ratios are \( <3, 6, -7> \). - Common area for each constraint is called:
(a) infeasible region
(b) feasible region
(c) useless region
(d) main region
Answer: (b) feasible region - If \( P(A) = \frac{1}{2} \), \( P(B) = \frac{3}{8} \), and \( P(A \cap B) = \frac{1}{5} \), then \( P(A|B) \) is equal to:
(a) \( \frac{2}{5} \)
(b) \( \frac{8}{15} \)
(c) \( \frac{2}{3} \)
(d) \( \frac{5}{8} \)
Answer: (b) \( \frac{8}{15} \)
Explanation: \( P(A|B) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)} = \frac{1/5}{3/8} = \frac{8}{15} \).
Q2. Fill in the blanks from the given options:
- Value of \( \sin^{-1}(1) \) is \( \frac{\pi}{2} \).
Explanation: \( \sin \frac{\pi}{2} = 1 \). - If \( A = [a_{ij}]_{2 \times 3} \) such that \( a_{ij} = i + j \), then \( a_{11} = 2 \).
Explanation: \( a_{11} = 1 + 1 = 2 \). - If \( \left|\begin{array}{ll}x & 0 \\ 7 & 1\end{array}\right| = \left|\begin{array}{ll}3 & 0 \\ 7 & 2\end{array}\right| \), then \( x = 6 \).
Explanation: \( x \cdot 1 – 0 \cdot 7 = 3 \cdot 2 – 0 \cdot 7 \), so \( x = 6 \). - If \( y = \cos x \), then at \( x = 0 \), \( \frac{dy}{dx} = 0 \).
Explanation: \( \frac{dy}{dx} = -\sin x \), at \( x = 0 \), \( -\sin 0 = 0 \). - \( \int_0^5 dx = 5 \).
Explanation: \( \int_0^5 1 \, dx = [x]_0^5 = 5 \). - Order of the differential equation \( \frac{d^2 y}{dx^2} – \left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^3 + y = 0 \) is 2.
Explanation: Highest derivative is second order. - Direction ratios of \( x \)-axis are \( <1, 0, 0> \).
- Probability of occurrence of impossible event = 0.
Section – C
Q11. Evaluate \( \int_0^{\pi/2} \log \sin x \, dx \).
Solution: This is a standard integral. Using the property \( \int_0^{\pi/2} \log \sin x \, dx = \frac{\pi}{2} \log \frac{1}{2} = -\frac{\pi}{2} \log 2 \).
Answer: \( -\frac{\pi}{2} \log 2 \)
Q12. Solve the following linear programming problem graphically:
Maximize and minimize \( Z = 4x + 3y \) subject to:
\( x + y \leq 8 \), \( 4x + y \geq 8 \), \( x – y \geq 0 \), \( x \geq 0 \), \( y \geq 0 \)
Solution: Plot constraints:
1. \( x + y = 8 \): (8,0), (0,8)
2. \( 4x + y = 8 \): (2,0), (0,8)
3. \( x – y = 0 \): (0,0), (1,1)
Feasible region vertices: (2,0), (4,4), (8,0).
Evaluate \( Z \):
– (2,0): \( Z = 8 \)
– (4,4): \( Z = 28 \)
– (8,0): \( Z = 32 \)
Max: 32 at (8,0), Min: 8 at (2,0).
Q13. Probability of solving a specific problem independently by A and B are \( 1/2 \) and \( 1/3 \) respectively.
(i) Probability problem is solved:
\( P(A) = 1/2 \), \( P(B) = 1/3 \), \( P(\text{not A}) = 1/2 \), \( P(\text{not B}) = 2/3 \).
\( P(\text{solved}) = 1 – P(\text{neither}) = 1 – (1/2)(2/3) = 1 – 1/3 = 2/3 \).
(ii) Exactly one solves it:
\( P(A \text{ only}) = (1/2)(2/3) = 1/3 \), \( P(B \text{ only}) = (1/2)(1/3) = 1/6 \).
Total = \( 1/3 + 1/6 = 1/2 \).
Section – D
Q14. (a) Express the matrix \( A = \left[\begin{array}{lll}2 & 2 & 5 \\ 3 & 9 & 5 \\ 8 & 7 & 1\end{array}\right] \) as a sum of symmetric and skew-symmetric matrix.
Solution: Symmetric = \( \frac{A + A^T}{2} \), Skew-symmetric = \( \frac{A – A^T}{2} \).
\( A^T = \left[\begin{array}{lll}2 & 3 & 8 \\ 2 & 9 & 7 \\ 5 & 5 & 1\end{array}\right] \).
Symmetric: \( \left[\begin{array}{lll}2 & 2.5 & 6.5 \\ 2.5 & 9 & 6 \\ 6.5 & 6 & 1\end{array}\right] \), Skew-symmetric: \( \left[\begin{array}{rrr}0 & -0.5 & -1.5 \\ 0.5 & 0 & -1 \\ 1.5 & 1 & 0\end{array}\right] \).
Q15. Show that height of the cylinder of maximum volume that can be inscribed in a sphere of 30 cm is \( \frac{60}{\sqrt{3}} \) cm.
Solution: Radius of sphere = 15 cm. Cylinder height \( h \), radius \( r \), \( r^2 + (h/2)^2 = 15^2 \). Volume \( V = \pi r^2 h = \pi h (225 – h^2/4) \). Maximize \( V \), derivative set to zero gives \( h = 10\sqrt{3} = \frac{60}{\sqrt{3}} \) (after rationalizing).
Q16. (a) Find the projection of \( \vec{a} = 3i – 2j + 7k \) on \( \vec{b} = 6i + j – 2k \).
Solution: Projection = \( \frac{\vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}}{|\vec{b}|} \). \( \vec{a} \cdot \vec{b} = 18 – 2 – 14 = 2 \), \( |\vec{b}| = \sqrt{41} \), so \( \frac{2}{\sqrt{41}} \).
