  • Question 1
    3 / -1

    The vertex of the parabola x2=8y−1 is:

    Solution

    Given parabola can be written as x2=8(y−1/8)

    Comparing with standard parabola X2=4aY

    X=x, Y=y−1/8, a=2

    Therefore Vertex is (X,Y)=(0,0)

    ⇒(x,y−1/8)=(0,0)

    ⇒(x,y)=(0,1/8)

    Hence option C is the correct answer.

  • Question 2
    3 / -1

    Directions: The following question has four choices, out of which ONE or MORE can be correct.

    Let h(x) = f(x) - (f(x))2 + (f(x))3 for every real number x. Then,

    Solution

    Given: \(h(x)=f(x)-(f(x))^{2}+(f(x))^{3}\)

    On differentiating w.r.t. \(x\), we get

    \(h^{\prime}(x)=f(x)-2 f(x) \cdot f^{\prime}(x)+3 f^{2}(x) \cdot f^{\prime}(x)\)

    \(=f(x)\left[1-2 f(x)+3 f^{2}(x)\right]\)

    \(=3 f^{\prime}(x)\left[(f(x))^{2}-\frac{2}{3} f(x)+\frac{1}{3}\right]\)

    \(=3 f^{\prime}(x)\left[\left[f(x)-\frac{1}{3}\right]^{2}+\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{9}\right]\)

    \(=3 f(x)\left[\left[f(x)-\frac{1}{3}\right]^{2}+\frac{3-1}{9}\right]\)

    \(=3 f(x)\left[\left[f(x)-\frac{1}{3}\right]^{2}+\frac{2}{9}\right]\)

    Note that \(h^{\prime}(x)<0\) if \(f^{\prime}(x)<0\) and \(h^{\prime}(x)>0\)

    if \(f^{\prime}(x)>0\)

    Therefore, \(h(x)\) is an increasing function if \(f(x)\) is an increasing function, and \(h(x)\) is a decreasing function if \(f(x)\) is a decreasing function.

    Therefore, option (A) is correct answer.

  • Question 3
    3 / -1

    If t1 and t2 are the ends of a focal chord of the parabola y2=2x then:

    Solution

    Given parabola y2=4ax

    Since, P, S and Q are collinear.

    mPQ=mPS

    2/(t1+t2)=2t1/(t21−1)

    ⇒t21−1=t21+t1t2

    ⇒t1t2=−1

    Hence option C is the correct answer.

  • Question 4
    3 / -1

    Directions: The following question has four choices, out of which ONE or MORE can be correct.

    Three lines px + qy + r = 0, qx + ry + p = 0 and rx + py + q = 0 are concurrent, if:

    Solution

    Therefore, (A) is the answer.

  • Question 5
    3 / -1

    Let PQ be a chord of the parabola y2 = 4x. A circle drawn with PQ as diameter passes through the vertex V of the parabola. If area of ΔPVQ = 20 square units then coordinates of P are:

    Solution


    Hence option C is the correct answer.

  • Question 6
    3 / -1

    A double ordinate of the parabola y2=8px is of length 16p. The angle subtended by it at the vertex of the parabola is

    Solution

    Length of the double ordinate is parametric form is 8pt=16p

    t=2

    So coordinates of extremities will be A(8p,8p) and B(8p,−8p)

    The slope of the line joining vertex to point A is 1

    The slope of the line joining vertex to point B is −1

    Product of slopes =−1

    Hence the lines are perpendicular

    Hence option B is the correct answer.

  • Question 7
    3 / -1

    The equation of the circle of radius 3 that lies in the fourth quadrant and touching the lines x=0 and y=0 is:

    Solution

    Given the circle lies in 4th quadrant, and touches y=0 and x=0 and has radius 3.

    ∴ Equation of circle is

    (x−3)2+(y+3)2=32

    ⇒x2+y2−6x+6y+9=0.

    Hence option A is the correct answer.

  • Question 8
    3 / -1

    The equation of the directrix of the parabola y2+4y+4x+2=0 is:

    Solution

    y2+4y+4x+2 = 0

    y2+4y+4 = −4x+2

    (y+2)2= −4(x−1/2)

    So equation of directrix is (x−1/2) = −a = 1 ⇒ x = 3/2

    Hence option D is the correct answer.

  • Question 9
    3 / -1

    The parabola y2−2x−6y+5=0 has :

    Solution

    The given equation of the parabola can be written in the form

    (y−3)2 = 2(x+2) ⇒ (y−3)2=4.1/2 (c+2)

    So, a=1/2

    Coordinates of vertex are x+2=0, y−3=0 ⇒ (−2,3)

    Coordinates of focus are x+2=1/2, y−3=0 ⇒ (−3/2,3)

    Equation of directrix is x+2=−1/2 ⇒ x=−5/2

    Hence option D is the correct answer.

  • Question 10
    3 / -1

    Directions: The following question has four choices, out of which ONE or MORE can be correct.

    The equation(s) of the tangents drawn from the origin to the circle x2 + y2 + 2rx + 2hy + h2 = 0 is/are:

    Solution

    The equation of pair of tangent to the circle \(x^{2}+y^{2}+2 g x+2 f y+c=0\) from point \(\left(x_{1}, y_{1}\right)\) is

    \(\left(x^{2}+y^{2}+2 g x+2 f y+c\right)\left(x_{1}^{2}+y_{1}^{2}+2 g x_{1}+2 f y_{1}+c\right)\)

    \(=\left[x x_{1}+y y_{1}+f\left(x+x_{1}\right)+f\left(y+y_{1}\right)+c\right]^{2}\)

    Thus, the equation of pair of tangent to the circle \(x^{2}+y^{2}-2 x-2 h y+h^{2}=0\)

    from origin (0,0) is \(\left(x^{2}+y^{2}-2 r x-2 h y+h^{2}\right)\left(0^{2}+0^{2}-2 r 0-2 h 0+h^{2}\right)=\)

    \(\left[x 0+y 0-r(x+0)-h(y+0)+h^{2}\right]^{2}\)

    \(\Rightarrow\left(x^{2}+y^{2}-2 r x-2 h y+h^{2}\right)\left(h^{2}\right)=\left[-r x-h y+h^{2}\right]^{2}\)

    \(\Rightarrow x^{2} h^{2}+h^{2} y^{2}-2 h^{2} r x-2 h^{3} y+h^{4}=\)

    \(r^{2} x^{2}+h^{2} y^{2}+h^{4}+2 r x y-2 h^{3} y-2 r x h^{2}\)

    \(\Rightarrow h^{2} x^{2}=r^{2} x^{2}+2 r h x y\)

    \(\Rightarrow h^{2} x^{2}-r^{2} x^{2}-2 r h y=0\)

    \(\Rightarrow x\left(h^{2} x-r^{2} x-2 r h y\right)=0\)

    \(\left.\Rightarrow x\left(h^{2}-r^{2}\right) x-2 r h y\right)=0\)

    tangent to the circle \(\left(h^{2}-r^{2}\right) x-2 r h y=0, x=0\)

    Hence option A is the correct answer.

  • Question 11
    3 / -1

    Tangent is drawn at any point P of a curve which passes through (1, 1) cutting x-axis and y-axis at A and B, respectively. If BP : AP = 3 : 1, then

    Solution

    since, \(B P: A P=3: 1 .\) Then equation of tangent is \(Y-y=f^{\prime}(x)(x-x)\) The intercept on the coordinate axes are \(A\left(x-\frac{y}{f^{\prime}(x)}, 0\right)\)

    and \(B[0, y-x f(x)]\)

    since, \(P\) is internally intercepts a line \(A B\)

    \(\therefore x=\frac{3\left(x-\frac{y}{f^{\prime}(x)}\right)+1 \times 0}{3+1}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{y}{-3 x}\)

    \(\Rightarrow \frac{d y}{y}=-\frac{1}{3 x} d x\)

    On integrating both sides, we get \(x y^{3}=c\) since, curve passes through \((1,1),\) then \(c=1 x y^{3}=1\) At \(x=\frac{1}{8} \Rightarrow y=2\)

    Hence, (A) is correct answer.

  • Question 12
    3 / -1

    The nature of the intercepts made on the axes by the tangent at the point (16/5,9/5) to the ellipse 9x2+16y2=144 are:

    Solution

  • Question 13
    3 / -1

    The distance of a point P on the ellipse x2+3y2=6 from the centre is 2 the eccentric angle of P is:

    Solution

    Given that point P lies on ellipse

    it will be in the form of (6√cos θ, 2√sin θ)

    The center of ellipse is (0,0) and its distance from P is 2

    by using distance formula

    ⇒6cos2θ+2sin2θ=4

    ⇒cos2θ=1/2

    ⇒cosθ=1/√2

    therefore the value of θ=π/4

    Hence option C is the correct answer.

  • Question 14
    3 / -1

    Find the latus rectum of the parabola x2+2y−3x+5=0 ?

    Solution

    x2+2y−3x+5=0

    ⇒x2−3x=−2y−5

    ⇒x2−2(3/2)x+9/4 = −2y−5+9/4 = −2y−11/4

    ⇒(x−3/2)2 = −2(y−11/4)

    Hence latus rectum = 4×1/2=2

    Hence option B is the correct answer.

  • Question 15
    3 / -1

    Equation of the two tangents drawn from (2,−1) to x2+3y2=3 are:

    Solution

    Line passing through (2,−1) is

    y+1=m(x−2)

    y=mx+(−1−2m)

    Condition of tangency is c2=a2m2+b2

    (−1−2m)2=3m2+1

    1+4m2+4m=3m2+1

    m2+4m=0⇒m=0,−4

    ∴ equation of tangents are y=−1 and 4x+y=7

    Hence option B is the correct answer.
