F1 Defence Arbaz 04-07-2023 Sachin D7

 

Given, A(1, -1, 2) and B(2, 1, -1) are the end points of the diameter.

∴ AB =  √(2-1)2 + (1+1)2 + (-1-2)2​​​​

\(\sqrt{1+4+9} \)

\(\sqrt{14} \)     

Now, the angle at circumference is 90.

⇒ ΔPAB is a right angled triangle

⇒ PA2 + PB2 = AB2 

⇒ PA2 + PB2 = (\((\sqrt{14})^2 \))

⇒ PA2 + PB2 = 14

∴ The value of PA2 + PB2 is 14.

Mathematics Question 2:

Comprehension:

Consider the following for the next two (02) items that follow :

Let A(1, -1, 2) and B(2, 1, -1) be the end points of the diameter of the sphere

x2 + y2 + z2 + 2ux + 2vy + 2wz - 1 = 0.  

What is u + v + w equal to ? 

Answer (Detailed Solution Below) -2

Mathematics Question 2 Detailed Solution

Concept:

The general equation of circle is given by: x2 + y2 + z2 + 2ux + 2vy + 2wz + d = 0

  • Center = (- u, - v, - w)
  • Radius, r = \(\sqrt{u^2+v^2+w^2-d}\)

Calculation:

Given, A(1, -1, 2) and B(2, 1, -1) are the end points of the diameter.

⇒ Centre = Midpoint of AB

\(\left(\frac{1+2}{2},\frac{-1+1}{2},\frac{2-1}{2} \right )\)

\(\left(\frac{3}{2},0,\frac{1}{2} \right )\)

Given, x2 + y2 + z2 + 2ux + 2vy + 2wz - 1 = 0

Centre of circle = (- u, - v, - w) = \(\left(\frac{3}{2},0,\frac{1}{2} \right )\)

⇒ u = - 3/2

v = 0

w = - 1/2

∴ u + v + w = - 3/2 - 1/2 = - 4/2 = -2

∴ The value of u + v + w = - 2.

Mathematics Question 3:

Comprehension:

A cable network provider in a small town has 500 subscribers and he used to collect Rs. 300 per month from each subscriber. He proposes to increase the monthly charges and it is believed from the past experience that for every increase of Rs. 1, one subscriber will discontinue the service. Based on the above information, answer the following question:

What is  square root of that yields maximum revenue?

Answer (Detailed Solution Below) 400

Mathematics Question 3 Detailed Solution

Calculation:

Total Revenue, R = (500 - x)(300 + x)

⇒ R = 150000 + 200x - x2

R = 400 × 400

√R = 400

Mathematics Question 4:

Comprehension:

A cable network provider in a small town has 500 subscribers and he used to collect Rs. 300 per month from each subscriber. He proposes to increase the monthly charges and it is believed from the past experience that for every increase of Rs. 1, one subscriber will discontinue the service. Based on the above information, answer the following question:

What is increase in changes per subscriber that yields maximum revenue?

Answer (Detailed Solution Below) 100

Mathematics Question 4 Detailed Solution

Calculation:

Total Revenue, R = (500 - x)(300 + x)

⇒ R = 150000 + 200x - x2

For maximum revenue, dR/dx = 0 and d2R/dx2 < 0

⇒ 0 + 200 - 2x = 0

⇒ x = 100

Also, d2R/dx2 = -2 < 0

⇒ x = 100 is a maxima.

∴ Increase in changes per subscriber that yields maximum revenue is 100.

Mathematics Question 5:

Find the area of the region bounded by the curves y = \(\rm \frac{x^2}{2}\), the line x = 2, x  = 0 and the x - axis ?

  1. \(\rm ​\frac 8 3 \;sq.\;units\)
  2. \(\rm ​\frac 1 3 \;sq.\;units\)
  3. \(\rm ​\frac 2 3 \;sq.\;units\)
  4. \(\rm ​\frac 4 3 \;sq.\;units\)
  5. None of the above

Answer (Detailed Solution Below)

Option 4 : \(\rm ​\frac 4 3 \;sq.\;units\)

Mathematics Question 5 Detailed Solution

Concept:

The area under the curve y = f(x) between x = a and x = b,is given by,  Area = \(\rm \int_{x=a}^{x =b}f(x) \;dx\)

\(\smallint {{\rm{x}}^{\rm{n}}}{\rm{dx}} = \frac{{{{\rm{x}}^{{\rm{n}} + 1}}}}{{{\rm{n}} + 1}} + {\rm{C}}\)

 

Calculation:

Here, we have to find the area of the region bounded by the curves y = \(\rm \frac{x^2}{2}\), the line x = 2, x  = 0 and the x - axis

So, the area enclosed by the given curves = \(\rm \int_0^2 {\rm \frac{x^2}{2}}\;dx\)

As we know that, \(\smallint {{\rm{x}}^{\rm{n}}}{\rm{dx}} = \frac{{{{\rm{x}}^{{\rm{n}} + 1}}}}{{{\rm{n}} + 1}} + {\rm{C}}\)

\(=\rm \int_0^2 {\frac {x^2}{2}}\;dx = \left[ {\frac{{{x^3}}}{6}} \right]_0^2\)

\(\rm = \frac{1}{6}\;\left( {8- 0\;} \right) = \frac 4 3 \;sq.\;units\)

Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.

Concept:

Order: The order of a differential equation is the order of the highest derivative appearing in it.

Degree: The degree of a differential equation is the power of the highest derivative occurring in it, after the equation has been expressed in a form free from radicals as far as the derivatives are concerned.

 

Calculation:

Given:

\({\rm{y}} = {\rm{x}}{\left( {\frac{{{\rm{dy}}}}{{{\rm{dx}}}}} \right)^2} + {\left( {\frac{{{\rm{dx}}}}{{{\rm{dy}}}}} \right)} \)

\({\rm{y}} = {\rm{x}}{\left( {\frac{{{\rm{dy}}}}{{{\rm{dx}}}}} \right)^2} + \frac{1}{{{{\left( {\frac{{{\rm{dy}}}}{{{\rm{dx}}}}} \right)}}}} \)

\(\Rightarrow {\rm{y}}{\left( {\frac{{{\rm{dy}}}}{{{\rm{dx}}}}} \right)} = {\rm{x}}{\left( {\frac{{{\rm{dy}}}}{{{\rm{dx}}}}} \right)^3} + 1\)

For the given differential equation the highest order derivative is 1.

Now, the power of the highest order derivative is 3.

We know that the degree of a differential equation is the power of the highest derivative

Hence, the degree of the differential equation is 3.

Mistake PointsNote that, there is a term (dx/dy) which needs to convert into the dy/dx form before calculating the degree or order. 

What is the mean of the range, mode and median of the data given below?

Given:

The given data is 5, 10, 3, 6, 4, 8, 9, 3, 15, 2, 9, 4, 19, 11, 4

Concept used:

The mode is the value that appears most frequently in a data set

At the time of finding Median

First, arrange the given data in the ascending order and then find the term

Formula used:

Mean = Sum of all the terms/Total number of terms

Median = {(n + 1)/2}th term when n is odd 

Median = 1/2[(n/2)th term + {(n/2) + 1}th] term when n is even

Range = Maximum value – Minimum value 

Calculation:

Arranging the given data in ascending order 

2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 9, 10, 11, 15, 19

Here, Most frequent data is 4 so 

Mode = 4

Total terms in the given data, (n) = 15 (It is odd)

Median = {(n + 1)/2}th term when n is odd 

⇒ {(15 + 1)/2}th term 

⇒ (8)th term

⇒ 6 

Now, Range = Maximum value – Minimum value 

⇒ 19 – 2 = 17

Mean of Range, Mode and median = (Range + Mode + Median)/3

⇒ (17 + 4 + 6)/3 

⇒ 27/3 = 9

∴ The mean of the Range, Mode and Median is 9

Find the mean of given data:

 class interval 10-20 20-30 30-40 40-50 50-60 60-70 70-80
 Frequency 9 13 6 4 6 2 3

  1. 39.95
  2. 35.70
  3. 43.95
  4. 23.95

Formula used:

The mean of grouped data is given by,

\(\bar X\ = \frac{∑ f_iX_i}{∑ f_i}\)

Where, \(u_i \ = \ \frac{X_i\ -\ a}{h}\)

Xi = mean of ith class

f= frequency corresponding to ith class

Given:

class interval 10-20 20-30 30-40 40-50 50-60 60-70 70-80
Frequency 9 13 6 4 6 2 3


Calculation:

Now, to calculate the mean of data will have to find ∑fiXi and ∑fi as below,

Class Interval fi Xi fiXi
10 - 20 9 15 135
20 - 30 13 25 325
30 - 40 6 35 210
40 - 50 4 45 180
50 - 60 6 55 330
60 - 70 2 65 130
70 - 80 3 75 225
  ∑fi = 43 ∑X = 315 ∑fiXi = 1535


Then,

We know that, mean of grouped data is given by

\(\bar X\ = \frac{∑ f_iX_i}{∑ f_i}\)

\(\frac{1535}{43}\)

= 35.7

Hence, the mean of the grouped data is 35.7

Concept:

  • Rational numbers are those numbers that show the ratio of numbers or the number which we get after dividing it with any two integers.
  • Irrational numbers are those numbers that we can not represent in the form of simple fractions a/b, and b is not equal to zero.
  • When we add any two rational numbers then their sum will always remain rational.
  • But if we add an irrational number with a rational number then the sum will always be an irrational number.

 

Explanation:

Case:1 Take two irrational numbers π and 1 - π

⇒ Sum =  π +1 - π = 1

Which is a rational number.

Case:2 Take two irrational numbers π and √2 

⇒ Sum =  π + √2

Which is an irrational number.

Hence, a sum of two irrational numbers may be a rational or an irrational number.

Mathematics Question 12 Detailed Solution

Download Solution PDF

Concept:

Let z = x + iy be a complex number.

  • Modulus of z = \(\left| {\rm{z}} \right| = {\rm{}}\sqrt {{{\rm{x}}^2} + {{\rm{y}}^2}} = {\rm{}}\sqrt {{\rm{Re}}{{\left( {\rm{z}} \right)}^2} + {\rm{Im\;}}{{\left( {\rm{z}} \right)}^2}}\)
  • arg (z) = arg (x + iy) = \({\tan ^{ - 1}}\left( {\frac{y}{x}} \right)\)
  • Conjugate of z =  = x – iy

 

Calculation:

Let z = (1 + i) 3

Using (a + b) 3 = a3 + b3 + 3a2b + 3ab2

⇒ z = 13 + i3 + 3 × 12 × i + 3 × 1 × i2

= 1 – i + 3i – 3

= -2 + 2i

So, conjugate of (1 + i) 3 is -2 – 2i

NOTE:

The conjugate of a complex number is the other complex number having the same real part and opposite sign of the imaginary part.

Concept:

sin2 x + cos2 x = 1

Calculation:

Given: sin θ + cos θ = 7/5 

By, squaring both sides of the above equation we get,

⇒ (sin θ + cos θ)2 = 49/25

⇒ sin2 θ + cos2 θ + 2sin θ.cos θ = 49/25

As we know that, sin2 x + cos2 x = 1

⇒ 1 + 2sin θcos θ = 49/25

⇒ 2sin θcos θ = 24/25

∴ sin θcos θ = 12/25
