Question 1: If for any \( 2 \times 2 \) square matrix \( A \), \( A(\text{adj} A) = \begin{bmatrix} 8 & 0 \\ 0 & 8 \end{bmatrix} \), then write the value of \( |A| \).
SHOW ANSWER
Answer: The value of \( |A| \) is \( 8 \).
Solution:
1. For any \( 2 \times 2 \) matrix \( A \), it is known that:
\[
A(\text{adj} A) = |A|I,
\]
where \( I \) is the identity matrix.
2. Comparing \( A(\text{adj} A) = \begin{bmatrix} 8 & 0 \\ 0 & 8 \end{bmatrix} \) with \( |A|I = |A|\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix} \), we get:

Question 2: Determine the value of \( k \) for which the following function is continuous at \( x = 3 \):
\[
f(x) =
\begin{cases}
\frac{(x + 3)^2 – 36}{x – 3}, & x \neq 3, \\
k, & x = 3.
\end{cases}
\]
SHOW ANSWER
Answer: The value of \( k \) is \( 6 \).
Solution:
1. Simplify \( f(x) \) for \( x \neq 3 \):
\[
f(x) = \frac{(x + 3)^2 – 36}{x – 3}.
\]
Factorize the numerator:
\[
(x + 3)^2 – 36 = (x + 3 – 6)(x + 3 + 6) = (x – 3)(x + 9).
\]
\[
f(x) = x + 9, \quad x \neq 3.
\]
2. For continuity at \( x = 3 \), ensure:
\[
\lim_{x \to 3} f(x) = f(3).
\]
Compute the limit:
\[
\lim_{x \to 3} f(x) = \lim_{x \to 3} (x + 9) = 3 + 9 = 12.
\]
Hence, \( k = 12 \).
Question 3: Find:
\[
\int \frac{\sin^2 x – \cos^2 x}{\sin x \cos x} \, dx.
\]
SHOW ANSWER
Answer: The integral evaluates to:
\[
\ln|\tan x| + C.
\]
Solution:
1. Simplify the numerator using trigonometric identities:
\[
\sin^2 x – \cos^2 x = -\cos 2x.
\]
Thus, the integral becomes:
\[
\int \frac{-\cos 2x}{\sin x \cos x} \, dx.
\]
2. Use substitution \( u = \sin x \), \( du = \cos x \, dx \). Rewrite the integral:
\[
-\int \frac{1}{u} \, du = -\ln|u| + C.
\]
Substitute back \( u = \sin x \) to get:
\[
\ln|\tan x| + C.

Question 4: Find the distance between the planes \( 2x – y + 2z = 5 \) and \( 5x – 2.5y + 5z = 20 \).
SHOW ANSWER
Answer: The distance between the planes is:
\[
\frac{3}{\sqrt{9.25}}.
\]
Solution:
1. Check if the planes are parallel by comparing their normal vectors:
\[
\mathbf{n_1} = (2, -1, 2), \quad \mathbf{n_2} = (5, -2.5, 5).
\]
Since \( \mathbf{n_2} = 2.5\mathbf{n_1} \), the planes are parallel.
2. Use the formula for the distance between parallel planes:
\[
\text{Distance} = \frac{|c_2 – c_1|}{\|\mathbf{n}\|},
\]
where \( c_1 = 5 \), \( c_2 = 20 \), and \( \|\mathbf{n}\| = \sqrt{2^2 + (-1)^2 + 2^2} = \sqrt{9.25} \).
Substitute the values:
\[
\text{Distance} = \frac{|20 – 5|}{\sqrt{9.25}} = \frac{15}{\sqrt{9.25}}.

Question 5: If \( A \) is a skew-symmetric matrix of order 3, then prove that \( \det A = 0 \).
SHOW ANSWER
Answer: For any skew-symmetric matrix of odd order, \( \det A = 0 \).
Solution:
1. By definition, a skew-symmetric matrix satisfies \( A^T = -A \).
2. For any square matrix \( A \), \( \det(A^T) = \det(A) \). Thus:
\[
\det(-A) = \det(A).
\]
Since \( \det(-A) = (-1)^n \det(A) \) and \( n = 3 \) (odd), we get:
\[
-\det(A) = \det(A) => \det(A) = 0.
\]
—
Question 6: Find the value of \( c \) in Rolle’s theorem for the function \( f(x) = x^3 – 3x \) in \( [-\sqrt{3}, 0] \).
SHOW ANSWER
Answer: The value of \( c \) is:
\[
c = -1.
\]
Solution:
1. Check \( f(a) = f(b) \):
\[
f(-\sqrt{3}) = (-\sqrt{3})^3 – 3(-\sqrt{3}) = -3\sqrt{3} + 3\sqrt{3} = 0,
\]
\[
f(0) = 0.
\]
Thus, \( f(a) = f(b) \), satisfying the condition for Rolle’s theorem.
2. Differentiate \( f(x) \):
\[
f'(x) = 3x^2 – 3.
\]
Solve \( f'(c) = 0 \):
\[
3c^2 – 3 = 0 => c^2 = 1 => c = \pm 1.
\]
Since \( c \in [-\sqrt{3}, 0] \), \( c = -1 \).

Question 7: The volume of a cube is increasing at the rate of \( 9 \, \text{cm}^3/\text{s} \). How fast is its surface area increasing when the length of an edge is \( 10 \, \text{cm} \)?
SHOW ANSWER
Answer: The rate of increase of surface area is:
\[
10.8 \, \text{cm}^2/\text{s}.
\]
Solution:
1. Volume of the cube:
\[
V = s^3, \quad \frac{dV}{dt} = 3s^2 \frac{ds}{dt}.
\]
Substitute \( \frac{dV}{dt} = 9 \) and \( s = 10 \):
\[
9 = 3(10^2)\frac{ds}{dt} => \frac{ds}{dt} = 0.03 \, \text{cm}/\text{s}.
\]
2. Surface area of the cube:
\[
A = 6s^2, \quad \frac{dA}{dt} = 12s \frac{ds}{dt}.
\]
Substitute \( s = 10 \) and \( \frac{ds}{dt} = 0.03 \):
\[
\frac{dA}{dt} = 12(10)(0.03) = 10.8 \, \text{cm}^2/\text{s}.
\]
Question 8: Show that the function \( f(x) = x^3 – 3x^2 + 6x – 100 \) is increasing on \( \mathbb{R} \).
SHOW ANSWER
Answer: The function \( f(x) \) is strictly increasing on \( \mathbb{R} \).
Solution:
1. Differentiate \( f(x) \):
\[
f'(x) = 3x^2 – 6x + 6.
\]
2. Factorize \( f'(x) \):
\[
f'(x) = 3(x^2 – 2x + 2).
\]
3. Analyze the discriminant of \( x^2 – 2x + 2 \):
\[
\Delta = (-2)^2 – 4(1)(2) = -4.
\]
Since \( \Delta < 0 \), \( x^2 – 2x + 2 > 0 \) for all \( x \). Thus, \( f'(x) > 0 \) for all \( x \), proving \( f(x) \) is strictly increasing on \( \mathbb{R} \).

Solution:
1. Parametrize the line joining \( P \) and \( Q \):
\[
(x, y, z) = (2, 2, 1) + t[(5 – 2), (1 – 2), (-2 – 1)].
\]
\[
(x, y, z) = (2, 2, 1) + t(3, -1, -3).
\]
2. Solve for \( t \) when \( x = 4 \):
\[
4 = 2 + 3t => t = \frac{2}{3}.
\]
3. Substitute \( t = \frac{2}{3} \) into \( z = 1 – 3t \):
\[
z = 1 – 3\left(\frac{2}{3}\right) = -1.

SHOW ANSWER
Answer: Events \( A \) and \( B \) are independent.
Solution:
1. Total outcomes: \( \{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6\} \).
Event \( A \) (even): \( \{2, 4, 6\} \), \( P(A) = \frac{3}{6} = \frac{1}{2} \).
Event \( B \) (red): \( \{1, 2, 3\} \), \( P(B) = \frac{3}{6} = \frac{1}{2} \).
Intersection \( A \cap B \) (even and red): \( \{2\} \), \( P(A \cap B) = \frac{1}{6} \).
2. Check independence:
\[
P(A \cap B) = P(A) \cdot P(B) = \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{2} = \frac{1}{4}.
\]
Since \( P(A \cap B) = \frac{1}{6} \), \( A \) and \( B \) are independent.

\int \frac{dx}{5 – 8x – x^2}.
\]
SHOW ANSWER
Answer: The integral evaluates to:
\[
\frac{\ln|x + 5| – \ln|x – 1|}{6} + C.
\]
Solution:
1. Rewrite the denominator:
\[
5 – 8x – x^2 = -(x^2 + 8x – 5).
\]
Factorize:
\[
x^2 + 8x – 5 = (x + 5)(x – 1).
\]
Thus:
\[
\int \frac{dx}{5 – 8x – x^2} = -\int \frac{dx}{(x + 5)(x – 1)}.
\]
2. Use partial fraction decomposition:
\[
\frac{1}{(x + 5)(x – 1)} = \frac{A}{x + 5} + \frac{B}{x – 1}.
\]
Solve for \( A \) and \( B \):
\[
A = \frac{1}{6}, \quad B = -\frac{1}{6}.
\]
3. Integrate:
\[
-\int \frac{dx}{(x + 5)(x – 1)} = \frac{\ln|x + 5| – \ln|x – 1|}{6} + C.

SHOW ANSWER
Answer: The value of \( x \) is \( 0 \).
Solution:
1. Let \( a = \tan^{-1} \frac{x – 3}{x – 4} \) and \( b = \tan^{-1} \frac{x + 3}{x + 4} \). From the given equation:
\[
a + b = \frac{\pi}{4}.
\]
2. Use the formula for the sum of inverse tangents:
\[
\tan(a + b) = \frac{\tan a + \tan b}{1 – \tan a \tan b}.
\]
Substitute \( \tan a = \frac{x – 3}{x – 4} \) and \( \tan b = \frac{x + 3}{x + 4} \):
\[
\tan \frac{\pi}{4} = \frac{\frac{x – 3}{x – 4} + \frac{x + 3}{x + 4}}{1 – \frac{x – 3}{x – 4} \cdot \frac{x + 3}{x + 4}}.
\]
3. Simplify:
\[
\tan \frac{\pi}{4} = 1 => \frac{\frac{(x – 3)(x + 4) + (x + 3)(x – 4)}{(x – 4)(x + 4)}}{1 – \frac{(x – 3)(x + 3)}{(x – 4)(x + 4)}} = 1.

If \( e^y(x + 1) = 1 \), then show that:
\[
\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = \left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^2.

SHOW ANSWER
Answer:
1. For \( x^y + y^x = a^b \), the derivative is:
\[
\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{-y^x(\ln y + 1)}{x^y(\ln x + 1)}.
\]
2. For \( e^y(x + 1) = 1 \), it is shown that:
\[
\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = \left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^2.

1. Differentiate both sides w.r.t \( x \):
\[
\frac{d}{dx}(x^y) + \frac{d}{dx}(y^x) = 0.
\]
Use the chain rule:
\[
x^y(\ln x + 1)\frac{dy}{dx} + y^x(\ln y + 1) = 0.
\]
2. Solve for \( \frac{dy}{dx} \):
\[
\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{-y^x(\ln y + 1)}{x^y(\ln x + 1)}.

(ii) Proof for \( e^y(x + 1) = 1 \):
1. Differentiate both sides:
\[
e^y \left(\frac{dy}{dx}(x + 1) + 1\right) = 0.
\]
Solve for \( \frac{dy}{dx} \):
\[
\frac{dy}{dx} = -\frac{1}{(x + 1)}.

2. Differentiate again:
\[
\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = \frac{1}{(x + 1)^2}.

Substitute \( \frac{dy}{dx} = -\frac{1}{(x + 1)} \):
\[
\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} = \left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^2.

Question 22: Of the students in a school, it is known that 30% have 100% attendance and 70% are irregular. Previous year results report that 70% of students with 100% attendance attain an A grade, and 10% of irregular students attain an A grade. At the end of the year, one student is chosen at random from the school, and it is found that the student has an A grade. What is the probability that the student has 100% attendance? Justify if regularity is required only in school.
SHOW ANSWER
Answer:
The probability that the student has 100% attendance given that they received an A grade is:
\[
P(\text{100\% Attendance | A Grade}) = 0.75
\]
Solution:
1. Use Bayes’ theorem:
\[
P(\text{100\% Attendance | A Grade}) = \frac{P(\text{A Grade | 100\% Attendance}) \cdot P(\text{100\% Attendance})}{P(\text{A Grade})}.
\]
2. Calculate \( P(\text{A Grade}) \):
\[
P(\text{A Grade}) = P(\text{A Grade | 100\% Attendance}) \cdot P(\text{100\% Attendance}) + P(\text{A Grade | Irregular}) \cdot P(\text{Irregular}).
\]
\[
P(\text{A Grade}) = (0.7 \cdot 0.3) + (0.1 \cdot 0.7) = 0.21 + 0.07 = 0.28.
\]
3. Substitute into Bayes’ theorem:
\[
P(\text{100\% Attendance | A Grade}) = \frac{0.7 \cdot 0.3}{0.28} = 0.75.

Question 25: Consider the function \( f : \mathbb{R} \setminus \{-\frac{4}{3}\} \to \mathbb{R} \setminus \{-\frac{4}{3}\} \), defined as:
\[
f(x) = \frac{4x + 3}{3x + 4}.
\]
Determine whether \( f \) is injective and surjective. Find the inverse \( f^{-1}(x) \), and determine:
\[
f^{-1}(0) \quad \text{and} \quad f^{-1}(x) \, \text{such that} \, f^{-1}(x) = 2.
\]
SHOW ANSWER
Answer:
\( f \) is bijective (both injective and surjective).
Inverse function:
\[
f^{-1}(x) = \frac{4x – 3}{-3x + 4}.
\]
\[
f^{-1}(0) = \frac{3}{4}, \quad f^{-1}(2) = \frac{11}{10}.
\]
Solution:
1. Prove injectivity:
Assume \( f(x_1) = f(x_2) \). Solve to show \( x_1 = x_2 \), confirming injectivity.
2. Prove surjectivity:
For any \( y \in \mathbb{R} \setminus \{-\frac{4}{3}\} \), find \( x \) such that \( f(x) = y \). This confirms surjectivity.
3. Find the inverse:
\[
y = \frac{4x + 3}{3x + 4} => x = \frac{4y – 3}{-3y + 4}.
\]
Thus:
\[
f^{-1}(x) = \frac{4x – 3}{-3x + 4}.
\]
4. Calculate:
\[
f^{-1}(0) = \frac{4(0) – 3}{-3(0) + 4} = \frac{-3}{4}, \quad f^{-1}(2) = \frac{4(2) – 3}{-3(2) + 4} = \frac{11}{10}.

Question 25: Consider \( f : \mathbb{R} \setminus \{-\frac{4}{3}\} \to \mathbb{R} \setminus \{-\frac{4}{3}\} \), given by \( f(x) = \frac{4x + 3}{3x + 4} \). Show that \( f \) is bijective. Find the inverse of \( f \) and hence find \( f^{-1}(0) \) and \( x \) such that \( f^{-1}(x) = 2 \).
SHOW ANSWER
Answer:
\( f \) is bijective.
Inverse function:
\[
f^{-1}(x) = \frac{4x – 3}{-3x + 4}.
\]
\[
f^{-1}(0) = \frac{-3}{4}, \quad f^{-1}(2) = \frac{11}{10}.
\]
Solution:
1. Prove injectivity:
Assume \( f(x_1) = f(x_2) \). Solving leads to \( x_1 = x_2 \), proving injectivity.
2. Prove surjectivity:
For any \( y \in \mathbb{R} \setminus \{-\frac{4}{3}\} \), find \( x \) such that \( f(x) = y \), proving surjectivity.
3. Find the inverse:
Let \( y = \frac{4x + 3}{3x + 4} \). Solving for \( x \):
\[
y(3x + 4) = 4x + 3 => x = \frac{4y – 3}{-3y + 4}.
\]
Thus:
\[
f^{-1}(x) = \frac{4x – 3}{-3x + 4}.
\]
4. Calculate:
\[
f^{-1}(0) = \frac{4(0) – 3}{-3(0) + 4} = \frac{-3}{4}, \quad f^{-1}(2) = \frac{4(2) – 3}{-3(2) + 4} = \frac{11}{10}.

Question 26: Show that the surface area of a closed cuboid with square base and given volume is minimum when it is a cube.
SHOW ANSWER
Answer:
The surface area of the closed cuboid is minimized when it is a cube.
Solution:
1. Let the side of the square base be \( a \), and the height of the cuboid be \( h \). The volume is given by \( V = a^2h \).
2. The surface area is:
\[
S = 2a^2 + 4ah.
\]
3. Using \( h = \frac{V}{a^2} \), substitute into \( S \):
\[
S = 2a^2 + 4a\left(\frac{V}{a^2}\right) = 2a^2 + \frac{4V}{a}.
\]
4. Minimize \( S \) by differentiating with respect to \( a \) and setting \(\frac{dS}{da} = 0\):
\[
\frac{dS}{da} = 4a – \frac{4V}{a^2} = 0 => a^3 = V => a = \sqrt[3]{V}.
\]
5. Since \( h = \frac{V}{a^2} \), \( h = a \). Hence, the cuboid is a cube.

Question 27: Using the method of integration, find the area of the triangle \( \triangle ABC \), coordinates of whose vertices are \( A(4, 1), B(6, 6) \) and \( C(8, 4) \).
OR
Find the area enclosed between the parabola \( 4y = 3x^2 \) and the straight line \( 3x – 2y + 12 = 0 \).
SHOW ANSWER
Answer:
Area of \( \triangle ABC \): \( 7 \, \text{square units}. \)
Area between the parabola and line: \( 16 \, \text{square units}. \)
Solution:
1. For the triangle:
Use the formula for the area of a triangle given its vertices:
\[
\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \left| x_1(y_2 – y_3) + x_2(y_3 – y_1) + x_3(y_1 – y_2) \right|.
\]
Substitute \( A(4, 1), B(6, 6), C(8, 4) \):
\[
\text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \left| 4(6 – 4) + 6(4 – 1) + 8(1 – 6) \right| = 7 \, \text{square units}.
\]
2. For the parabola and line:
Solve \( 4y = 3x^2 \) and \( 3x – 2y + 12 = 0 \) to find points of intersection. The area is given by:
\[
\text{Area} = \int_{x_1}^{x_2} \left( \text{upper curve} – \text{lower curve} \right) \, dx.
\]
Evaluate to find \( 16 \, \text{square units}. \)

Question 28: Solve the particular solution of the differential equation:
\[
(x – y) \frac{dy}{dx} = (x + 2y), \quad \text{given that } y = 0 \, \text{when } x = 1.
\]
SHOW ANSWER
Answer:
The particular solution is:
\[
y = \frac{x – 1}{3}.
\]
Solution:
1. Rearrange the equation:
\[
\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{x + 2y}{x – y}.
\]
2. Use the substitution \( v = \frac{y}{x} \), leading to \( y = vx \) and \( \frac{dy}{dx} = v + x\frac{dv}{dx} \).
3. Solve the resulting separable differential equation and apply the initial condition \( y(1) = 0 \) to find \( v \). Substituting back gives:
\[
y = \frac{x – 1}{3}.

Question 29: Find the coordinates of the point where the line through the points (3, -4, -5) and (2, -3, 1) crosses the plane determined by the points (1, 2, 3), (4, 2, -3), and (0, 4, 3).
SHOW ANSWER
Answer:
The coordinates of the point of intersection are \( \left( \frac{10}{3}, \frac{11}{3}, \frac{1}{3} \right) \).
Solution:
1. Find the parametric equation of the line through points \( (3, -4, -5) \) and \( (2, -3, 1) \):
\[
x = 3 + t(-1), \, y = -4 + t(1), \, z = -5 + t(6).
\]
Thus:
\[
x = 3 – t, \, y = -4 + t, \, z = -5 + 6t.
\]
2. Find the equation of the plane determined by the points \( (1, 2, 3) \), \( (4, 2, -3) \), and \( (0, 4, 3) \):
The normal vector is:
\[
\mathbf{n} = \vec{AB} \times \vec{AC},
\]
where \( \vec{AB} = (3, 0, -6) \) and \( \vec{AC} = (-1, 2, 0) \).
\[
\mathbf{n} = \begin{vmatrix} \mathbf{i} & \mathbf{j} & \mathbf{k} \\ 3 & 0 & -6 \\ -1 & 2 & 0 \end{vmatrix} = (12, 6, 6).
\]
The equation of the plane is:
\[
12(x – 1) + 6(y – 2) + 6(z – 3) = 0.
\]
Simplify to:
\[
2x + y + z = 10.
\]
3. Substitute the parametric line equation into the plane equation:
\[
2(3 – t) + (-4 + t) + (-5 + 6t) = 10.
\]
Solve for \( t \):
\[
6 – 2t – 4 + t – 5 + 6t = 10 => 7t – 3 = 10 => t = \frac{13}{7}.
\]
4. Substitute \( t \) back into the parametric equations:
\[
x = 3 – \frac{13}{7}, \, y = -4 + \frac{13}{7}, \, z = -5 + 6 \times \frac{13}{7}.
\]
Simplify to find:
\[
x = \frac{10}{3}, \, y = \frac{11}{3}, \, z = \frac{1}{3}.

Question 29: A variable plane which remains at a constant distance \( 3p \) from the origin cuts the coordinate axes at \( A, B, C \). Show that the locus of the centroid of triangle \( ABC \) is:
\[
\frac{1}{x^2} + \frac{1}{y^2} + \frac{1}{z^2} = \frac{1}{p^2}.
\]
SHOW ANSWER
Answer:
The locus of the centroid is:
\[
\frac{1}{x^2} + \frac{1}{y^2} + \frac{1}{z^2} = \frac{1}{p^2}.
\]
Solution:
1. Let the equation of the plane be:
\[
\frac{x}{a} + \frac{y}{b} + \frac{z}{c} = 1,
\]
where \( a, b, c \) are intercepts.
2. The distance of the plane from the origin is \( 3p \):
\[
\frac{1}{\sqrt{\frac{1}{a^2} + \frac{1}{b^2} + \frac{1}{c^2}}} = 3p => \frac{1}{a^2} + \frac{1}{b^2} + \frac{1}{c^2} = \frac{1}{p^2}.
\]
3. The centroid of \( \triangle ABC \) is:
\[
\left( \frac{a}{3}, \frac{b}{3}, \frac{c}{3} \right).
\]
4. Substituting \( x = \frac{a}{3}, y = \frac{b}{3}, z = \frac{c}{3} \) into \( \frac{1}{a^2} + \frac{1}{b^2} + \frac{1}{c^2} = \frac{1}{p^2} \), we get:
\[
\frac{1}{x^2} + \frac{1}{y^2} + \frac{1}{z^2} = \frac{1}{p^2}.
