  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    The equation of normal to the curve $$2y=3-{ x }^{ 2 }$$ at the point $$\left(1,1\right)$$
    Solution
    The curve is $$2y=3-{x}^{2}$$

    Slope$$=2{y}^{\prime}=-2x$$ or $$\dfrac{dy}{dx}=-x$$

    Slope at $$\left(1,1\right)$$ is $$\dfrac{dy}{dx}=-1$$

    Equation of normal is $$y-1=\dfrac{-1}{-1}\left(x-1\right)$$

    $$\Rightarrow x-1-y+1=0$$

    $$\Rightarrow x-y=0$$ is the equation of the normal.
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    equation of tangent at $$(0,0)$$ for the equation $$y^2=16x$$
    Solution
    The equation is $$y^2=16x$$
    The point is $$(0,0)$$
    The slope of tangent $$2y \dfrac{dy}{dx}=16\\\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac 8y\\\left.\dfrac{dy}{dx}\right|_{(0,0)}=\infty$$
    Equation of tangent is $$y-0=\dfrac{8}{0}(x-0)\\x=0$$
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    The intercept on x-axis made by tangent to the curve, $$\displaystyle y=\int _{ 0 }^{ x }{ \left| t \right|  } dt,x\in R$$, which are parallel to the line $$y=2x$$, are equal to
    Solution
    $$y = \int_{0}^{x}{\left| t \right| dt}$$
    $$\Rightarrow \cfrac{dy}{dx} = \left| x \right|$$
    Since tangent to the curve is parallel to the line $$y = 2x$$.
    $$\therefore \cfrac{dy}{dx} = 2$$
    $$\Rightarrow x = \pm 2$$
    Therefore,
    $$y = \int_{0}^{\pm 2}{\left| t \right| dt}$$
    $$\Rightarrow y = \pm 2$$
    Therefore,
    Equation of tangents are-
    $$y - 2 = 2 \left( x - 2 \right)$$
    $$y + 2 = 2 \left( x + 2 \right)$$
    For $$x$$-intercept, substitute $$y = 0$$, we have
    $$0 - 2 = 2 \left( x - 2 \right) \Rightarrow x = +1$$
    $$0 + 2 = 2 \left( x + 2 \right) \Rightarrow x = -1$$
    Hence the intercept on $$x$$-axis are $$\pm 1$$.
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    The area of triangle formed by tangent and normal at point $$(\sqrt{3}, 1)$$ of the curve $$x^2+y^2=4$$ and x-axis is?
    Solution
    Slope of OP$$=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{3}}$$, slope of PQ$$=-\sqrt{3}$$
    $$y-1=-\sqrt{3}(x-\sqrt{3})=-\sqrt{3}x+3$$
    $$\Rightarrow \sqrt{3}x+y=4$$ and $$Q\left(\dfrac{4}{\sqrt{3}}, 0\right)$$
    $$\Delta OPQ=\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{3}}$$.

  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    A curve $$y=me^{mx}$$ where $$m > 0$$ intersects y-axis at a point $$P$$.
    What is the equation of tangent to the curve at $$P$$ ?
    Solution
    $$y = m {e}^{mx}, \; m > 0$$
    Substituting $$x = 0$$, we have
    $$y = m {e}^{m \cdot 0} = m$$
    Therefore,
    Slope $$= \cfrac{dy}{dx} = {m}^{2} {e}^{mx} = {m}^{2} {e}^{m \cdot 0} = {m}^{2}$$
    Therefore, equation of tangent at $$P$$ is given by-
    $$y - m = \cfrac{dy}{dx} \left( x - 0 \right)$$
    $$\Rightarrow y - m = {m}^{2} x$$
    $$\Rightarrow y = {m}^{2}x + m$$
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    The tangent to the curve $$y=e^{kx}$$ at a point (0, 1) meets the x-axis at (q, 0) where $$a \epsilon  \left [ -2,-1 \right ]$$ then $$k \epsilon $$ 
    Solution

  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    If the slope of the tangent to the curve $$xy+ ax+ by=0$$ at the point $$(1, 1) $$ on it is $$2$$, then values of $$a$$ and $$b$$ are
    Solution
    $$a+b +1=0$$
    $${xy}'+y+a+{b y}'=0$$
    $${y}'=\dfrac{-(y+a)}{(x+b )}$$
    $$-\dfrac{(a+1)}{(1+b )}=2$$
    $$2+2b +a+1=0$$
    $$2+2 b -b =0$$
    $$b =-2$$
    $$a=1$$
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    If the slope of the tangent to the curve $$y = x^{3}$$ at a point on it is equal to the ordinate of the point then the point is
    Solution
    Differntiating the given equation 
    $$\dfrac{dy}{dx}=3x^{2}$$
    $$3a^{2}=a^{3}$$
    $$a=3$$
    $$(3,3^{3})$$
    $$(3,27)$$

  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    The area of the triangle formed by the tangent to the curve  $$\displaystyle y=\frac{8}{4+x^{2}}$$ at $$x=2$$ on it and the $$x$$-axis is
    Solution
    $${y}'=\dfrac{8\times 24}{(4+x^{2})^{2}}$$
    $$y=1=\dfrac{-8\times 2\times 2 }{(4+4)^{2}}$$
    $$=\dfrac{-5\times 4}{64}=\dfrac{1}{2}$$
    $$(y-1)=\dfrac{-1}{2}(x-2)$$
    $$2y-2=-x+2$$
    $$2y+x=4$$
    $$A=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 2\times 4=4$$
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    The two curves $$y=x^{2}-1$$ and $$y=8x-x^{2}-9$$ at the point $$(2, 3)$$ have common
    Solution
    $$y_1 = x^2-1$$
    $$\therefore y'_1=2x$$
    $$y_2 = 8x-x^2-9$$
    $$\therefore y'_2=8-2x$$

    At the common tangent point, slope will be same.
    $$2x=8-2x$$
    $$4x=8$$
    $$x=2,  \therefore y=3$$
    This point, $$(2,3)$$, satisfies both curves.
    At $$(2,3)$$
    $$y'_1=4$$
    Equation of tangent at $$(2,3)$$
    $$(y-3)=4(x-2)$$
    $$4x-y-5=0 $$

    For normal, slope will be $$-\dfrac{1}{4}$$
    $$\therefore$$ Equation of normal at $$(2,3)$$ is
    $$(y-3)=\dfrac{-1}{4}(x-2)$$
    $$4y-12+x-2=0$$
    $$4y+x-14=0$$

    Hence, option A.
