1.Ans. (a) Since (1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3)  R, therefore R is reflexive (1, 2)  R but (2, 1)  R, therefore R is not symmetric.

It can be easily seen that R is transitive.

2.Ans. (b)2n

3.Ans. (a)Since R is reflexive relation on A, therefore (a, a)  R for all a  A

 the minimum number of ordered pairs in R is n.

Hence, m  n.

4.Ans. (b)

 - (-)50 = x + iy

 -50 = x + iy  -)2 = x + iy

5.Ans. (a)|z2 + 2z cos|  |z2| + |2z cos |

= |z|2 + 2|z| |cos|  |z|2 + 2|z|

6.Ans. (b)Let  = - 1 + 4z. Then,

 + 1 = 4z  | + 1| = 4 |z| = 12

Thus,  lies on a circle with centre at – 1 and radius equal to 12.

7.Ans. (a)Since logxa, ax/2 and logb x are in G.P. Therefore, (ax/2)2 = logxa, logbx

 ax = logba  x = loga(logba)

8.Ans. (c)We have,

Now, a, b, c are in A.P.  1 – a 1 – b, 1 – c are in A.P.

are in H.P.  x, y, z are in H.P.

9.Ans. (d)Le d be the common difference of the AP, Then,

a10 = 3  a1 + 9d = 3 2 + 9d = 3  d

Let D be the common difference of . Then,

10.Ans. (a)ax2 + 2bx + c = 0

This satisfies dx2 + 2ex + f = 0

are in A.P.

11.Ans. (d)Product of roots = 31

 2e2logk-1 = 31

 2k2 – 1 = 31  2k2 = 32  k2 = 16 k =  4

But k > 0. Therefore, k = 4

Now, Disc = 8k2 – 8e2logk + 4 = 8k2 – 8k2 + 4 = 4 > 0 for all k, Hence, = 4

12.Ans. (b)We have,

14.Ans. (d)Let . Then,

 x = 4.

15.Ans. (c)x2 - 2x cos  + 1 = 0  x = cos  i sin

 x2n = cos 2n i sin 2n and xn = cos n  i sin n 

 x2n – 2xn cos n  + 1

= cos 2n  i sin 2n - 2 cos2n 2i sin n cos n + 1 = 0

16.Ans. (c)The Discriminant of the given quadratic is

D = 9b2 – 32 ac

= 9(-a – c)2 – 32 ac

= 9a2 + 9c2 – 14ac = c2 [9(a/c)2 – 14a/c + 9]

Since the discriminant of 9(a/c)2 – 14(a/c) + 9 is negative therefore the sign of the expression 9(a/c)2 – 14(a/c) + 9 is always positive.

Hence, the roots of the given equation are real.

Adding these two, we get

2[12C1 + 32C3 + 52C5 + …] = n(n – 1)2n-2 + n.2n-1

= mC0 . nC0 – (mC0nC1 – nC0mC1) x + (mC0nC2 + nC0mC2 – mC1nC1)x2 + ….

It is given that the coefficients of x and x2 in the expression of (1 + x)m (1 – x)n are 3 and – 6 respectively

Therefore,

-(mC0 . nC1 – nC0 . mC1) = 3

and mC0nC2 + nC0mC2 – mC1nC1 = - 6

 m – n = 3 and n(n – 1) + m(m – 1) – 2mn = - 12

 m – n = 3 and (m – n)2 + (m – n) = - 12

 m – n = 3 and m + n = 21  m = 12, n = 9

 (A adj A) (adj (adj A)) = |A|n-1 A

 (|A|In) (adj (adj A)) = |A|n-1A

 adj (adj A) = |A|n-2A

Since the two circle touch each other externally, therefore C1C2 = r1 + r2

 c4 = a2b2 – c2(a2 + b2) + c4 a2b2 = c2 (a2 + b2)

32.Ans. (b)The coordinates of centres C1 and C2 of two circles are (1, 0) and (2, 3) respectively. Let r1 and r2 be the radii of two circles. Then r1 = 2 and . Clearly r1 – r2 < c1c2 < r1 + r2
