  • Question 1
    1 / -0

    If \({x}+{iy}=\frac{3+4 {i}}{2-{i}}\) where \({i}=\sqrt{-1}\), then what is the value of y?

    Solution

    Equality of complex numbers:

    Two complex numbers \(z_{1}=x_{1}+i y_{1}\) and \(z_{2}=x_{2}+i y_{2}\) are equal if and only if \(x_{1}=x_{2}\) and \(y_{1}=y_{2}\).

    or \(\operatorname{Re}\left(z_{1}\right)=\operatorname{Re}\left(z_{2}\right)\) and \(\operatorname{Im}\left(z_{1}\right)=\operatorname{lm}\left(z_{2}\right)\)

    Given: \({x}+{iy}=\frac{3+4 {i}}{2-{i}}\)

    \(\Rightarrow {x}+{iy}=\frac{3+4 {i}}{2-{i}} \times \frac{2+{i}}{2+{i}}\)

    \(\Rightarrow {x}+{iy}=\frac{6+11 {i}+4 {i}^{2}}{4-{i}^{2}}\)

    As we know \({i}^{2}=-1\)

    \(\Rightarrow {x}+{iy}=\frac{6+11 {i}-4}{4+1}\)

    \(\Rightarrow {x}+{iy}=\frac{2+11 {i}}{5}=\frac{2}{5}+{i} \frac{11}{5}\)

    Comparing real and imaginary parts, we get,

    \({x}=\frac{2}{5}\) and \({y}=\frac{11}{5}\)

  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    The average of \({n}\) numbers \({x}_{1}, {x}_{2}, \ldots, {x}_{{n}}\) is \({M} .\) If \({x}_{{n}}\) is replaced by \({x}^{\prime}\), then the new average is:
    Solution
    \(\Rightarrow M=\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}+\ldots+x_{n}}{n}\)
    \(\Rightarrow {x}_{1}+{x}_{2}+\ldots+{x}_{n-1}+{x}_{n}={n M}\)
    \(\Rightarrow {x}_{1}+{x}_{2}+\ldots+{x}_{n-1}={n M}-{x}_{n}\)
    Let \({M}^{\prime}\) be the average of \({x}_{1}, {x}_{2}, \ldots, {x}_{n-1}, {x}^{\prime} .\)
    Then,
    \(\Rightarrow{M}^{\prime}=\frac{{x}_{1}+{x}_{2}+\ldots+{x}_{n-1}+{x}^{\prime}}{{n}}\)
    \( \Rightarrow {M}^{\prime}=\frac{{n M}-{x}_{{n}}+{x}^{\prime}}{{n}}\)
  • Question 3
    1 / -0

    If the function \(f\) defined by \(f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{cl}\lambda x, & \text { if } x \leq \frac{\pi}{2} \\ \cos 2 x, & \text { if } x>\frac{\pi}{2}\end{array}\right\}\) is continuous at \(x=\frac{\pi}{2}\), then the value of \(\lambda\) is:

    Solution

    Here \(f(x)\) is continuous at \(x=c\) if, \(L H L=R H L=\) value of \(f(c)\) i.e., \(\lim _{x \rightarrow c} f(x)=\lim _{x \rightarrow c^{+}} f(x)=f(c)\)

    Now,

    \( f\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\right)=\frac{\lambda \pi}{2} \ldots(i) \)

    \(R H L=\lim _{x \rightarrow \frac{\pi}{2}+} f(x)=\lim _{x \rightarrow \frac{\pi}{2}+} \cos 2 \mathrm{x} \)

    \( =\cos 2\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\right)=-1 \ldots(\text { ii })\)

    Equating \((i)\) and \((i i)\),

    \(\frac{\lambda \pi}{2}=-1 \)

    \(\therefore \lambda=-\frac{2}{\pi}\)

  • Question 4
    1 / -0

    If \(\frac{e^{x}}{1-x}=B_{0}+B_{1} x+B_{2} x^{2}+\ldots+B_{n} x^{n}+\ldots\), then the value of \(B_{n}-B_{n-1}\) is:

    Solution

    We have,

    \(e^{x}=(1-x)\left(B_{0}+B_{1} x+B_{2} x^{2}+\ldots+B_{n-1} x^{n-1}+B_{n} x^{n}+\ldots\right)\)

    By the expansion of ex, we get,

    \(1+\frac{x}{1 !}+\frac{x^{2}}{2 !}+\ldots+\frac{x^{n}}{n !}+\ldots\)

    \(=(1-x)\left(B_{0}+B_{1} x+B_{2} x^{2}+\ldots+B_{n-1} x^{n-1}+B_{n} x^{n}+\ldots\right)\)

    Equating the coefficient of xn on both sides, we get,

    \(B_{n}-B_{n-1}=\frac{1}{n !}\)

  • Question 5
    1 / -0

    Let \(A(\vec{a}), B(\vec{b}), C(\vec{c})\) be the vertices of the triangle \(A B C\) and let \(D E F\) be the midpoints of the sides \(B C, C A, A B\) respectively. If \(P\) divides the median \(AD\) in the ratio \(2: 1\) then the position vector of \(P\) is:

    Solution

    \(A(\vec{a}), B(\vec{b}), C(\vec{c})\) are the vertices of the triangle \(A B C\).

    \(D\) is the midpoint of \(BC\)

    \(\Rightarrow D =\left(\frac{\overrightarrow{ b }+\overrightarrow{ c }}{2}\right)\)

    \(E\) is the midpoint of \(CA\)

    \(\Rightarrow E=\left(\frac{\vec{a}+\vec{c}}{2}\right)\)

    \(F\) is the midpoint of \(A B\)

    \(\Rightarrow F =\left(\frac{\overrightarrow{ a }+\overrightarrow{ b }}{2}\right)\)

    Now, \(AD , BE\) and \(CF\) are the medians of triangle \(ABC\)

    All three medians intersects at point \(P\).

    \(\because P\) divides \(AD\) in the ratio \(2: 1\) and other medians also intersect at \(P\).

    \(\Rightarrow P\) divides all three medians in the ratio \(2: 1\)

    \(\Rightarrow P\) is the centroid of the triangle \(ABC\).

    The position vector of the centroid of a triangle \(ABC\) with position vectors of the vertices being \(\vec{a}, \vec{b}\) and \(\vec{c}\) respectively is given by:

    \(P=\frac{\vec{a}+\vec{b}+\vec{c}}{3}\)

  • Question 6
    1 / -0

    The number of solutions of the equation \(\sin ^{-1} x-\cos ^{-1} x=\sin ^{-1}\left ( \frac{1}{2}\right)\) is:

    Solution

    Given,

    \(\sin ^{-1} x-\cos ^{-1} x=\sin ^{-1}\left ( \frac{1}{2}\right)\)

    \(\Rightarrow \sin ^{-1} x-\cos ^{-1} x=\frac{\pi}{6}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \sin ^{-1} x-\left(\frac{\pi}{2}-\sin ^{-1} x\right)=\frac{\pi}{6}\)

    \(\Rightarrow 2 \sin ^{-1} x=\frac{\pi}{6}+\frac{\pi}{2}=\frac{2 \pi}{3}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \sin ^{-1} x=\frac{\pi}{3}\)

    \( \Rightarrow x=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\)

    Thus, the given equation has only one solution.

  • Question 7
    1 / -0

    A straight line with direction cosines \(\langle 0,1,0\rangle\) is:

    Solution

    Direction cosine: It is the cosines of each angles that the directed line makes with the \(x\)-axis, \(y\)-axis, and \(z\)-axis i.e., \(a, \beta\) and \(\gamma\) respectively.

    Represented as: \(\{l, m, n\}\)

    Where,

    \(l=\cos \alpha, m=\cos \beta\) and \(n=\cos \gamma\)

    Also, \(l^{2}+m^{2}+n^{2}=1\)

    Given that:

    Direction cosines of a line \(\langle 0,1,0\rangle\)

    Therefore,

    \(l=\cos \alpha=0\)

    \(\Rightarrow \alpha=90^{\circ}\)

    \(m=\cos \beta=1\)

    \(\Rightarrow \beta=0^{\circ}\)

    \(n=\cos \gamma=0\)

    \(\Rightarrow \gamma=90^{\circ}\)

    So, cosine angle along \(y\)- axis is zero. Therefore, the line is parallel to \(y\)-axis.

  • Question 8
    1 / -0

    The coefficient of of the middle term in the binomial expansion in \(x\) of \((1+\beta x)^{4}\) and of \((1-\beta x)^{6}\) is same, if \(\beta\) equals:

    Solution

    We know , the coefficient of middle term in the expansion of \((1+\beta x)^{4}={ }^{4} C_{2} \beta^{2}\)

    Similarly the coefficient of middle term in the expansion of \((1-\beta x)^{6}={ }^{6} C_{3}(-\beta)^{3}\)

    As it is given \({ }^{4} C_{2} \beta^{2}={ }^{6} C_{3}(-\beta)^{3}\)

    \(\Rightarrow { }^{4} C_{2} \beta^{2}={ }^{6} C_{3}(-\beta)^{3} \)

    \(\Rightarrow { }^{4} C_{2} \beta^{2}=-{ }^{6} C_{3} \beta^{3} \)

    \(\Rightarrow { }^{4} C_{2}+{ }^{6} C_{3} \beta=0\)

    \(\Rightarrow \beta=-\frac{{ }^{4} C_{2}}{{ }^{6} C_{3}} \)

    \(\Rightarrow \beta=-\frac{\left(\frac{4 !}{2 ! 2 !}\right)}{\left(\frac{6 !}{3 ! 3 !}\right)}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \beta=-\frac{\left(\frac{4 \times 3 \times 2 !}{2 \times 2 !}\right)}{\left(\frac{6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 !}{3 \times 2 \times 1 \times 3 !}\right)} \)

    \(\Rightarrow \beta=-\frac{6}{20} \)

    \(\Rightarrow \beta=-\frac{3}{10}\)

  • Question 9
    1 / -0

    Find the value of\(\sin [(n+1) A] \sin [(n+2) A]+\cos [(n+1) A] \cos [(n+2) A]\)

    Solution

    Let,

    \(y=\sin [(n+1) A] \sin [(n+2) A]+\cos [(n+1) A] \cos [(n+2) A]\)

    \(\Rightarrow y=\cos [(n+1) A] \cos [(n+2) A]+\sin [(n+1) A] \sin [(n+2) A]\)

    \(\because \cos (A-B)=\cos A \cdot \cos B-\sin A \cdot \sin B\)

    \(\Rightarrow y=\cos [(n+1) A-(n+2) A]\)

    \(\Rightarrow y=\cos (-A)\)

    \(\because \cos (-\theta)=\cos \theta\)

    \(\Rightarrow y=\cos A\)

  • Question 10
    1 / -0

    \(ABCD\) is a quadrilateral, \(E\) is the point of intersection of the line joining the midpoints of the opposite sides. If \(O\) is any point and \(\overrightarrow{ OA }+\overrightarrow{ OB }+\overrightarrow{ OC }+\) \(\overrightarrow{ OD }=x \overrightarrow{O E}\), then \(x\) is equal to:
