Q121
All the pairs (x, y) that satisfy the inequality 2sin2x2sinx+5.14sin2y1{2^{\sqrt {{{\sin }^2}x - 2\sin x + 5} }}.{1 \over {{4^{{{\sin }^2}y}}}} \le 1 also satisfy the equation
A sin x = |sin y|
B sin x = 2sin y
C 2 sin x = sin y
D 2 |sin x | = 3 sin y
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution
2sin2x2sinx+522sin2y{2^{\sqrt {{{\sin }^2}x - 2\sin x + 5} }} \le {2^{2{{\sin }^2}y}}

\Rightarrow

sin2x2sinx+52sin2y\sqrt {{{\sin }^2}x - 2\sin x + 5} \le 2{\sin ^2}y
(sinx1)2+42sin2y\Rightarrow \sqrt {{{\left( {\sin x - 1} \right)}^2} + 4} \le 2{\sin ^2}y

it is true when sinx = 1, |siny| = 1 so sinx = |siny|

Q122
Let λ0\lambda \ne 0 be in R. If α\alpha and β\beta are the roots of the equation, x2 - x + 2λ\lambda = 0 and α\alpha and γ\gamma are the roots of the equation, 3x210x+27λ=03{x^2} - 10x + 27\lambda = 0, then βγλ{{\beta \gamma } \over \lambda } is equal to:
A 36
B 9
C 27
D 18
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

α\alpha and β\beta are the roots of the equation x2 - x + 2λ\lambda = 0 .....(1) \therefore

α+β=1,αβ=2λ\alpha + \beta = 1,\,\alpha \beta = 2\lambda

α\alpha and γ\gamma are the roots of the equation,

3x210x+27λ=03{x^2} - 10x + 27\lambda = 0

......(2) \therefore

α+γ\alpha + \gamma

=

103{{10} \over 3}

,

αγ\alpha \gamma

=

27λ3{{27\lambda } \over 3}

= 9λ\lambda Multiplying equation (1) by 3 and subtracting form equation (2) we get -7x + 21λ\lambda = 0 \Rightarrow x = 3λ\lambda \therefore α\alpha = 3λ\lambda As α\alpha is root of equation (1) so α\alpha2 - α\alpha + 2λ\lambda = 0 \Rightarrow 9λ\lambda2 - 3λ\lambda + 2λ\lambda = 0 \Rightarrow λ\lambda =

19{1 \over 9}

\Rightarrow α\alpha = 3×\times

19{1 \over 9}

=

13{1 \over 3}

Also

αβ=2λ\alpha \beta = 2\lambda

=

29{2 \over 9}

\Rightarrow β\beta =

23{2 \over 3}

Also

αγ\alpha \gamma

= 9λ\lambda = 9×\times

19{1 \over 9}

= 1 \Rightarrow γ\gamma = 3 \therefore

βγλ{{\beta \gamma } \over \lambda }

=

23.319{{{2 \over 3}.3} \over {{1 \over 9}}}

= 18

Q123
If α\alpha and β\beta are the roots of the quadratic equation, x2 + x sin θ\theta - 2 sin θ\theta = 0, θ(0,π2)\theta \in \left( {0,{\pi \over 2}} \right), then α12+β12(α12+β12).(αβ)24{{{\alpha ^{12}} + {\beta ^{12}}} \over {\left( {{\alpha ^{ - 12}} + {\beta ^{ - 12}}} \right).{{\left( {\alpha - \beta } \right)}^{24}}}} is equal to :
A 212(sinθ8)6{{{2^{12}}} \over {{{\left( {\sin \theta - 8} \right)}^6}}}
B 26(sinθ+4)12{{{2^6}} \over {{{\left( {\sin \theta + 4} \right)}^{12}}}}
C 212(sinθ+8)12{{{2^{12}}} \over {{{\left( {\sin \theta + 8} \right)}^{12}}}}
D 212(sinθ4)12{{{2^{12}}} \over {{{\left( {\sin \theta - 4} \right)}^{12}}}}
Correct Answer
Option C
Solution

Given

α+β=sinθ\alpha + \beta = - \sin \theta

and

αβ=2sinθ\alpha \beta = - 2\sin \theta
(α12+β12)α12β12(α12+β12)(αβ)24=(αβ)12(αβ)24{{\left( {{\alpha ^{12}} + {\beta ^{12}}} \right){\alpha ^{12}}{\beta ^{12}}} \over {\left( {{\alpha ^{12}} + {\beta ^{12}}} \right){{\left( {\alpha - \beta } \right)}^{24}}}} = {{{{\left( {\alpha \beta } \right)}^{12}}} \over {{{\left( {\alpha - \beta } \right)}^{24}}}}
αβ=(α+β)24αβ=sin2θ+8sinθ\left| {\alpha - \beta } \right| = \sqrt {{{\left( {\alpha + \beta } \right)}^2} - 4\alpha \beta } = \sqrt {{{\sin }^2}\theta + 8\sin \theta }

Hence required quantity

(αβ)12(αβ)24=(2sinθ)12sin12θ(sinθ+8)12=212(sinθ+8)12{{{{\left( {\alpha \beta } \right)}^{12}}} \over {{{\left( {\alpha - \beta } \right)}^{24}}}} = {{{{\left( {2\sin \theta } \right)}^{12}}} \over {{{\sin }^{12}}\theta {{\left( {\sin \theta + 8} \right)}^{12}}}} = {{{2^{12}}} \over {{{\left( {\sin \theta + 8} \right)}^{12}}}}

Solution

Equation

x22mx+m21=0{x^2} - 2mx + {m^2} - 1 = 0
(xm)21=0{\left( {x - m} \right)^2} - 1 = 0

or

(xm+1)(xm1)=0\left( {x - m + 1} \right)\left( {x - m - 1} \right) = 0
x=m1,m+1x = m - 1,m + 1
m1>2m - 1 > - 2

and

m+1<4m + 1 < 4
m>1\Rightarrow m > - 1

and

m<3m<3

or

1<m<3\,\,\, - 1 < m < 3
Q125
If α\alpha and β\beta are the roots of the equation 2x(2x + 1) = 1, then β\beta is equal to :
A 2α(α+1) - 2\alpha \left( {\alpha + 1} \right)
B 2α(α+1) 2\alpha \left( {\alpha + 1} \right)
C 2α22{\alpha ^2}
D 2α(α1) 2\alpha \left( {\alpha - 1} \right)
Correct Answer
Option A
Solution

α\alpha and β\beta are the roots of the equation 4x2 + 2x – 1 = 0. \therefore α\alpha + β\beta =

12- {1 \over 2}

\Rightarrow -1 = 2α\alpha + 2β\beta and 4α\alpha2 + 2α\alpha - 1 = 0 \Rightarrow 4α\alpha2 + 2α\alpha + 2α\alpha + 2β\beta = 0 \Rightarrow β\beta =

2α(α+1)- 2\alpha \left( {\alpha + 1} \right)
Q126
The equation esinxesinx4=0{e^{\sin x}} - {e^{ - \sin x}} - 4 = 0 has:
A infinite number of real roots
B no real roots
C exactly one real root
D exactly four real roots
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution

Given equation is

esinxesinx4=0{e^{\sin x}} - {e^{ - \sin x}} - 4 = 0

Put

esinx=t{e^{{\mathop{\rm sinx}\nolimits} \,}} = t

in the given equation, we get

t24t1=0{t^2} - 4t - 1 = 0
t=4±16+42\Rightarrow t = {{4 \pm \sqrt {16 + 4} } \over 2}
=4±202\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = {{4 \pm \sqrt {20} } \over 2}
=4±252\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = {{4 \pm 2\sqrt 5 } \over 2}
=2±5\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = 2 \pm \sqrt 5
esinx=2±5\Rightarrow {e^{\sin x}} = 2 \pm \sqrt 5
\,\,\,\,\,

(as

t=esinxt = {e^{\sin x}}

)

esinx=25\Rightarrow {e^{\sin x}} = 2 - \sqrt 5

and

\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,
esinx=2+5{e^{\sin x}} = 2 + \sqrt 5
esinx=25<0\Rightarrow {e^{\sin x}} = 2 - \sqrt 5 < 0

and

sinx=ln(2+5)>1\,\,\,\,\,\,\sin x = \ln \left( {2 + \sqrt 5 } \right) > 1

So, rejected Hence given equation has no solution. \therefore The equation has no real roots.

Q128
The sum of the solutions of the equation x2+x(x4)+2=0\left| {\sqrt x - 2} \right| + \sqrt x \left( {\sqrt x - 4} \right) + 2 = 0 (x > 0) is equal to:
A 9
B 12
C 4
D 10
Correct Answer
Option D
Solution

Case 1 : When

x2\sqrt x \ge 2

then

x2=x2\left| {\sqrt x - 2} \right| = \sqrt x - 2

\therefore The given equation becomes,

(x2)\left( {\sqrt x - 2} \right)

+

x(x4)+2\sqrt x \left( {\sqrt x - 4} \right) + 2

= 0 \Rightarrow

(x2)\left( {\sqrt x - 2} \right)

+

x4xx - 4\sqrt x

+ 2 = 0 \Rightarrow

x3xx - 3\sqrt x

= 0 \Rightarrow

x(x3)\sqrt x \left( {\sqrt x - 3} \right)

= 0 \therefore

x\sqrt x

= 0 or 3

x\sqrt x

= 0 is not possible as

x2\sqrt x \ge 2

. So,

x\sqrt x

= 3 or

xx

= 9 Case 2 : When

x<2\sqrt x < 2

then

x2=\left| {\sqrt x - 2} \right| =
(x2)- \left( {\sqrt x - 2} \right)

=

2x2 - \sqrt x

\therefore The given equation becomes,

(2x)\left( {2 - \sqrt x } \right)

+

x(x4)+2\sqrt x \left( {\sqrt x - 4} \right) + 2

= 0 \Rightarrow

2x{2 - \sqrt x }

+

x4xx - 4\sqrt x

+ 2 = 0 \Rightarrow

x5x+4x - 5\sqrt x + 4

= 0 \Rightarrow

x4xx+4x - 4\sqrt x - \sqrt x + 4

= 0 \Rightarrow

x(x4)\sqrt x \left( {\sqrt x - 4} \right)
(x4)-\left( {\sqrt x - 4} \right)

= 0 \Rightarrow

(x4)\left( {\sqrt x - 4} \right)
(x1)\left( {\sqrt x - 1} \right)

= 0 \therefore

x\sqrt x

= 4 or 1

x\sqrt x

= 4 is not possible as

x<2\sqrt x < 2

. \therefore

x\sqrt x

= 1 or

xx

= 1 So, Sum of all solutions = 9 + 1 = 10

Q129
If α,β\alpha, \beta are the roots of the equation x2(5+3log355log53)x+3(3(log35)135(log53)231)=0 x^{2}-\left(5+3^{\sqrt{\log _{3} 5}}-5^{\sqrt{\log _{5} 3}}\right)x+3\left(3^{\left(\log _{3} 5\right)^{\dfrac{1}{3}}}-5^{\left(\log _{5} 3\right)^{\dfrac{2}{3}}}-1\right)=0 , then the equation, whose roots are α+1β\alpha+\dfrac{1}{\beta} and β+1α\beta+\dfrac{1}{\alpha}, is :
A 3x220x12=03 x^{2}-20 x-12=0
B 3x210x4=03 x^{2}-10 x-4=0
C 3x210x+2=03 x^{2}-10 x+2=0
D 3x220x+16=03 x^{2}-20 x+16=0
Correct Answer
Option B
Solution
3log355log53=3log35(3log35)log53{3^{\sqrt {{{\log }_3}5} }} - {5^{\sqrt {{{\log }_5}3} }} = {3^{\sqrt {{{\log }_3}5} }} - {\left( {{3^{{{\log }_3}5}}} \right)^{\sqrt {{{\log }_5}3} }}
3(log35)135(log53)23=5(log53)235(log53)23=0{3^{{{\left( {{{\log }_3}5} \right)}^{{1 \over 3}}}}} - {5^{{{\left( {{{\log }_5}3} \right)}^{{2 \over 3}}}}} = {5^{{{\left( {{{\log }_5}3} \right)}^{{2 \over 3}}}}} - {5^{{{\left( {{{\log }_5}3} \right)}^{{2 \over 3}}}}} = 0

Note : In the given equation 'x' is missing. So

α+β+1α+1β=(α+β)+α+βαβ\alpha + \beta + {1 \over \alpha } + {1 \over \beta } = (\alpha + \beta ) + {{\alpha + \beta } \over {\alpha \beta }}
=553=103= 5 - {5 \over 3} = {{10} \over 3}
(α+1β)(β+1α)=2+αβ+1αβ=2313=43\left( {\alpha + {1 \over \beta }} \right)\left( {\beta + {1 \over \alpha }} \right) = 2 + \alpha \beta + {1 \over {\alpha \beta }} = 2 - 3 - {1 \over 3} = {{ - 4} \over 3}

So Equation must be option (B).
