Q101
If the curves, x2a+y2b=1{{{x^2}} \over a} + {{{y^2}} \over b} = 1 and x2c+y2d=1{{{x^2}} \over c} + {{{y^2}} \over d} = 1 intersect each other at an angle of 90^\circ, then which of the following relations is TRUE?
A a - c = b + d
B a + b = c + d
C ab=c+da+bab = {{c + d} \over {a + b}}
D a - b = c - d
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution
x2a+y2b=1{{{x^2}} \over a} + {{{y^2}} \over b} = 1

..........(1) Differentiating both sides :

2xa+2ybdydx=0ybdydx=xa{{2x} \over a} + {{2y} \over b}{{dy} \over {dx}} = 0 \Rightarrow {y \over b}{{dy} \over {dx}} = {{ - x} \over a}

\Rightarrow

dydx=bxay{{dy} \over {dx}} = {{ - bx} \over {ay}}

............(2)

x2c+y2d=1{{{x^2}} \over c} + {{{y^2}} \over d} = 1

........(3) Differentiating both sides :

dydx=dxcy{{dy} \over {dx}} = {{ - dx} \over {cy}}

...........(4)

m1m2=1bxay×dxcy=1{m_1}{m_2} = - 1 \Rightarrow {{ - bx} \over {ay}} \times {{ - dx} \over {cy}} = - 1
bdx2=acy2\Rightarrow bd{x^2} = - ac{y^2}

.............(5)

(1)(3)(1a1c)x2+(1b1d)y2=0(1) - (3) \Rightarrow \left( {{1 \over a} - {1 \over c}} \right){x^2} + \left( {{1 \over b} - {1 \over d}} \right){y^2} = 0
caacx2+dbbd×(bdac)x2=0\Rightarrow {{c - a} \over {ac}}{x^2} + {{d - b} \over {bd}} \times \left( {{{ - bd} \over {ac}}} \right){x^2} = 0

(using 5)

(ca)(db)=0\Rightarrow (c - a) - (d - b) = 0
ca=db\Rightarrow c - a = d - b
cd=ab\Rightarrow c - d = a - b
Q102
If Rolle's theorem holds for the function f(x)=x3ax2+bx4f(x) = {x^3} - a{x^2} + bx - 4, x[1,2]x \in [1,2] with f(43)=0f'\left( {{4 \over 3}} \right) = 0, then ordered pair (a, b) is equal to :
A (-5, -8)
B (5, -8)
C (-5, 8)
D (5, 8)
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution
f(1)=f(2)f(1) = f(2)
1a+b4=84a+2b4\Rightarrow 1 - a + b - 4 = 8 - 4a + 2b - 4
3ab=73a - b = 7

..... (1)

f(x)=3x22ax+bf'(x) = 3{x^2} - 2ax + b
f(43)=03×16983a+b=0\Rightarrow f'\left( {{4 \over 3}} \right) = 0 \Rightarrow 3 \times {{16} \over 9} - {8 \over 3}a + b = 0
8a+3b=16\Rightarrow - 8a + 3b = - 16

..... (2) \therefore

a=5,b=8a = 5,b = 8
Q103
The maximum slope of the curve y=12x45x3+18x219xy = {1 \over 2}{x^4} - 5{x^3} + 18{x^2} - 19x occurs at the point :
A (3,212)\left( {3,{{21} \over 2}} \right)
B (0, 0)
C (2, 9)
D (2, 2)
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

Given,

y=12x45x3+18x219xy = {1 \over 2}{x^4} - 5{x^3} + 18{x^2} - 19x
dydx=12×4x315x2+36x19{{dy} \over {dx}} = {1 \over 2} \times 4{x^3} - 15{x^2} + 36x - 19

\Rightarrow Slope M =

2x315x2+36x192{x^3} - 15{x^2} + 36x - 19

At max of slope

dMdx=0{{dM} \over {dx}} = 0

\therefore

dMdx=6x230x+36=0{{dM} \over {dx}} = 6{x^2} - 30x + 36 = 0
6(x25x+6)=0\Rightarrow 6({x^2} - 5x + 6) = 0
6(x2)(x3)=0\Rightarrow 6(x - 2)(x - 3) = 0

\therefore

x=2,3x = 2,3

Now,

d2Mdx2=6(2x5){{{d^2}M} \over {d{x^2}}} = 6(2x - 5)

at

x=2,d2Mdx2=6(45)=6<0x = 2,{{{d^2}M} \over {d{x^2}}} = 6(4 - 5) = - 6 < 0

\therefore at x = 2 slope is maximum. At x = 2, y = 8 - 40 + 72 - 38 = 2 \therefore Required point = (2, 2)

Q104
Let slope of the tangent line to a curve at any point P(x, y) be given by xy2+yx{{x{y^2} + y} \over x}. If the curve intersects the line x + 2y = 4 at x = -2, then the value of y, for which the point (3, y) lies on the curve, is :
A 1819 - {{18} \over {19}}
B 43 - {{4} \over {3}}
C 1835{{18} \over {35}}
D 1811 - {{18} \over {11}}
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution
dydx=xy2+yx{{dy} \over {dx}} = {{x{y^2} + y} \over x}
xdyydxy2=xdx\Rightarrow {{xdy - ydx} \over {{y^2}}} = xdx
d(xy)=d(x22)\Rightarrow - d\left( {{x \over y}} \right) = d\left( {{{{x^2}} \over 2}} \right)
xy=x22+C\Rightarrow {{ - x} \over y} = {{{x^2}} \over 2} + C

Curve intersect the line x + 2y = 4 at x = - 2 So, - 2 + 2y = 4 \Rightarrow y = 3 So the curve passes through (-2, 3)

23=2+C\Rightarrow {2 \over 3} = 2 + C
C=43\Rightarrow C = {{ - 4} \over 3}

\therefore curve is

xy=x2243{{ - x} \over y} = {{{x^2}} \over 2} - {4 \over 3}

It also passes through (3, y)

3y=9243{{ - 3} \over y} = {9 \over 2} - {4 \over 3}
3y=196\Rightarrow {{ - 3} \over y} = {{19} \over 6}
y=1819\Rightarrow y = - {{18} \over {19}}
Q105
Let f be a real valued function, defined on R - {-1, 1} and given by f(x) = 3 loge x1x+12x1\left| {{{x - 1} \over {x + 1}}} \right| - {2 \over {x - 1}}. Then in which of the following intervals, function f(x) is increasing?
A (-\infty , -1) \cup ([12,){1})\left( {[{1 \over 2},\infty ) - \{ 1\} } \right)
B (-\infty , \infty ) - {-1, 1)
C (-\infty , 12{{1 \over 2}}] - {-1}
D (-1, 12{{1 \over 2}}]
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

f(x) = 3 loge

x1x+12x1\left| {{{x - 1} \over {x + 1}}} \right| - {2 \over {x - 1}}
f(x)=3(x+1)x1×(x+1)(x1)(x+1)2+2(x1)2>0f'(x) = {{3(x + 1)} \over {x - 1}} \times {{(x + 1) - (x - 1)} \over {{{(x + 1)}^2}}} + {2 \over {{{(x - 1)}^2}}} > 0
=6x21+2(x1)2>0= {6 \over {{x^2} - 1}} + {2 \over {{{(x - 1)}^2}}} > 0
=2(3(x1)+(x+1))(x1)2(x+1)=4(2x1)(x1)2(x+1)>0= {{2(3(x - 1) + (x + 1))} \over {{{(x - 1)}^2}(x + 1)}} = {{4(2x - 1)} \over {{{(x - 1)}^2}(x + 1)}} > 0
x(,1)[12,){1}\Rightarrow x \in ( - \infty , - 1) \cup \left[ {{1 \over 2},\infty ) - \{ 1\} } \right.

A 5\sqrt 5
B 34{3 \over 4}
C 5
D 7\sqrt 7
Correct Answer

=(1)[2sin2xcos2x]=cos2x2sin2x= ( - 1)[2\sin 2x - \cos 2x] = \cos 2x - 2\sin 2x

We know, maximum value of acosx ±\pm bsinx =

a2+b2\sqrt {{a^2} + {b^2}}

\therefore Here maximum value =

12+(2)2\sqrt {{1^2} + {{\left( { - 2} \right)}^2}}
=5= \sqrt 5
Q107
Let x=2x=2 be a local minima of the function f(x)=2x418x2+8x+12,x(4,4)f(x)=2x^4-18x^2+8x+12,x\in(-4,4). If M is local maximum value of the function ff in (4,4)-4,4), then M =
A 18633218\sqrt6-\dfrac{33}{2}
B 18631218\sqrt6-\dfrac{31}{2}
C 12633212\sqrt6-\dfrac{33}{2}
D 12631212\sqrt6-\dfrac{31}{2}
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution
f(x)=8x336x+8=4(2x39x+2)=4(x2)(2x2+4x1)=4(x2)(x2+62)(x262)\begin{aligned} & f(x)=8 x^3-36 x+8 \\\\ & =4\left(2 x^3-9 x+2\right) \\\\ & =4(x-2)\left(2 x^2+4 x-1\right) \\\\ & =4(x-2)\left(x-\frac{-2+\sqrt{6}}{2}\right)\left(x-\frac{-2 \sqrt{6}}{2}\right) \end{aligned}

Local maxima occurs at x=2+62=x0x=\dfrac{-2+\sqrt{6}}{2}=x_0

f(x0)=126332f\left(x_0\right)=12 \sqrt{6}-\frac{33}{2}
Q108

A not monotonic on (-\infty , 0) and (0, \infty )
B monotonic on (0, \infty ) only
C monotonic on (-\infty , 0) only
D monotonic on (-\infty , 0) \cup (0, \infty )
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution
f(x)={(2sin1x)x,x<00,x=0(2sin1x)x,x>0f(x) = \left\{ \begin{array}{lll}{ - \left( {2 - \sin {1 \over x}} \right)x} & , & {x < 0} \\ 0 & , & {x = 0} \\ {\left( {2 - \sin {1 \over x}} \right)x} & , & {x > 0} \end{array} \right.
f(x)={x(cos1x)(1x2)(2sin1x),x<0x(cos1x)(1x2)+(2sin1x),x>0f'(x) = \left\{ \begin{array}{ll}- x\left( { - \cos {1 \over x}} \right)\left( { - {1 \over {{x^2}}}} \right) - \left( {2 - \sin {1 \over x}} \right),x < 0 \\ x\left( { - \cos {1 \over x}} \right)\left( { - {1 \over {{x^2}}}} \right) + \left( {2 - \sin {1 \over x}} \right),x > 0 \end{array} \right.

=

{1xcos1x+sin1x2,x<01xcos1xsin1x+2,x>0\left\{ \begin{array}{ll}- {1 \over x}\cos {1 \over x} + \sin {1 \over x} - 2,x < 0 \\ {1 \over x}\cos {1 \over x} - \sin {1 \over x} + 2,x > 0 \end{array} \right.

\therefore f'(x) is an oscillating function which is non-monotonic on (-\infty, 0) and (0, \infty).

Solution
A=[1x2x+1x1x2x+1x1]A = \left[ \begin{array}{lll}1 & { - x} & {2x + 1} \\ { - x} & 1 & { - x} \\ {2x + 1} & { - x} & 1 \end{array} \right]
A=4x34x24x=f(x)\left| A \right| = 4{x^3} - 4{x^2} - 4x = f(x)
f(x)=4(3x22x1)=0f'(x) = 4(3{x^2} - 2x - 1) = 0
x=1;x=13\Rightarrow x = 1;x = {{ - 1} \over 3}

\therefore

f(1)=4;f(13)=2027f(1) = - 4;f\left( { - {1 \over 3}} \right) = {{20} \over {27}}

Sum

=4+207=8827= - 4 + {{20} \over 7} = - {{88} \over {27}}

Let 'a' be a real number such that the function f(x) = ax2 + 6x - 15, x \in R is increasing in (,34)\left( { - \infty ,{3 \over 4}} \right) and decreasing in (34,)\left( {{3 \over 4},\infty } \right). Then the function g(x) = ax2 - 6x + 15, x\inR has a :
A local maximum at x = - 34{{3 \over 4}}
B local minimum at x = -34{{3 \over 4}}
C local maximum at x = 34{{3 \over 4}}
D local minimum at x = 34{{3 \over 4}}
Correct Answer

\therefore

g(x)=4x26x+15g(x) = 4{x^2} - 6x + 15

Local max. at

x=B2A=(6)2(4)x = {{ - B} \over {2A}} = - {{( - 6)} \over {2( - 4)}}
