  • Question 1
    1 / -0.25

    Find slope of normal to the curve y=5x2 -10x + 7 at x=1 ​

    Solution

    y = 5x2 - 10x + 7
    dy/dx = 10x - 10
    (At x = 1) 10(1) - 10  
    m1 = 0
    As we know that slope, m1m2 = -1  
    =>0(m2) = -1
    m2 = -1/0 (which is not defined)

  • Question 2
    1 / -0.25

    The equation of the tangent line to the curve y =  which is parallel to the line 4x -2y + 3 = 0 is ​

    Solution


  • Question 3
    1 / -0.25

    Find the equation of tangent to   which has slope 2.

    Solution

    y = 1/(x-3)
    dy/dx = d/dx(x-3)-1
    dy/dx = (-1) (x-3)(-1-1) . d(x-3)/dx
    dy/dx = -(x-3)(-2)
    dy/dx = - 1/(x-3)2
    Given, slope = 2, dy/dx = 2
    - 1/(x-3)2 = 2
    ⇒-1 = 2(x-3)2
    2(x-3)2 = -1
    (x-3)2 = -½
    We know that square of any number is always positive So, (x-3)2 >0
    (x-3)2 = -½is not possible
    No tangent to the curve has slope 2.

  • Question 4
    1 / -0.25

    If y = –sin2x. Find the values of x at which the tangents drawn to the graph of this function is parallel to the x- axis.

    Solution

  • Question 5
    1 / -0.25

    The normal at any point q to the curve x = a (cos q + q sin q), y = a (sin q –q cos q) is at distance from the origin that is equal to ….​

    Solution

    Clearly,  dx/dy =tan q = slope of normal = −cotq
    Equation of normal at θ'is y −a(sinq −qcosq) = −cotq(x −a(cosq + qsinq)
    = ysinq −asin2 q + aqcosqsinq  
    = −xcosq + acos2 q + aqsinqcosq
    = xcosq + ysinq = a

  • Question 6
    1 / -0.25

    The equation of the normal to the curve x2  = 4y which passes through the point (1, 2) is.​

    Solution

    h2   = 4k  
    slope of normal=−1/(dy/dx) = −2h
    equation of normal(y −k)= −2h(x −h)
    k = 2 + 2/h(1 −h)
    (h2 ) / 4 = 2 + 2/h (1 −h)
    h = 2, k = 1
    equation of line (y - 1)= -1(x - 2)
    x + y = 3

  • Question 7
    1 / -0.25

    The curve y = ax3  + bx2  + cx + 5 touches the x-axis at P(-2, 0) and cuts the y-axis at the point Q where its gradient is 3. the equation of the curve is ….

    Solution

    y=ax3 +bx2 +cx+5
    (−z,0) lies on curve y=ax3 + bx2 + cx + 5d
    ⇒0= −8a + 4b −2c + 5.....(1)
    Also at (−2,0) curve touches x-axis ie dy/dx at (−2,0) is 0  
    ∴dy/dx=3ax2 +2bx+c
    dy/dx (−2,0)=0=12a = −4b + c....(2)
    Since curve crosses y-axis at Q, x-coordinate of point Q must be zero  
    ⇒y = 0 + 0 + 0 + 5
    ⇒y = 5
    ∴coordinate of Q = (0,5)
    According to Question  dy/dx =3 at Q(0,5)
    ⇒3= 0 + 0 + c
    ⇒c = 3
    putting the value of c in eqn(1) &eq n(2)and gurthare solving we get  
    a=−1/2 &b=-3/4
    ​∴Eqn of cover is y = −(x3 ) / 2 −3/4x2   + 3x + 5

  • Question 8
    1 / -0.25

    If a, b are real numbers such that x3 -ax2  + bx –6 = 0 has its roots real and positive then minimum value of b is

    Solution

    If  p,q  and  r are the roots,
    pq + qr + pr = b  and  pqr = 6  
    Since  A.M.≥G.M . applying it to  3  numbers  pq,qr  and  pr  
    (pq + qr + pr)/3 ≥(p2 q2 r2 )1/3  i.e.
    (pq + qr + pr)/3 ≥(36)1/3  
    pq + qr + pr ≥3 (36)1/3  
    So minimum value of  b  is  (36)1/3

  • Question 9
    1 / -0.25

    The equation of tangent to the curve y = x3  + 2x + 6 which is perpendicular to the line x + 14y + 4 = 0 is :​

    Solution

    y = x3 + 2x + 6
    Slope of tangent = m1 = dy/dx = 3x3 + 2  
    Slope of perpendicular line = m2 = −1/14
    m1 . m2  = -1
    m1 = 14
    3x2 + 2 = 14
    x = ±2
    Therefore the curve has tangents at x = 2 and x = -2
    and these points also lie on the given curve
    Equation of tangent - y = 14x + c  
    Coordinates of points of tangency
    At x = 2 , y = 23 + 2(2) + 6 = 18  
    At x = -2 , y = (-2)3 + 2(-2) + 6 = -6
    18 = 14(2) + c
    c = -10  
    -6 = 14(-2) + c
    c = 22
    Equation of tangent - y = 14x - 10 and y = 14x + 22
    Hence, 14x - y +22 = 0

  • Question 10
    1 / -0.25

    The equations of the tangents drawn to the curve y2  –2x3  –4y + 8 = 0 from the point (1, 2) is ….

    Solution

    Let P(α, β) be any point on the curve

    Now, the equation of the tangent at P is



    Hence, the point of contacts are
    (2, 2 + 2 √3) and (2, 2 –2 √3)
    Slope of the tangents are 2 √3 , –2 √3
    Hence, the equations of tangents are
    y –(2 + 2 √3) = 2 √3 (x –2)
    and
    y –(2 –2 √3) = –2 √3 (x –2)
