Solution:
Given tan-1\((\sqrt{3})\) – sec-1(-2)
= \(\frac{\pi}{3}\) – [π – sec-1(2)]
….[∵ sec-1(-x) = π – sec-1x, |x| ≥ 1]
= \(\frac{\pi}{3}\) – π + \(\frac{\pi}{3}\) = –\(\frac{\pi}{3}\)

\end{array}\right)\) is a matrix satisfying AA’ = 9I, find x.

Question 3.
Two cards are drawn at random from a pack of 52 cards one-by-one without replacement. What is the probability of getting first card red and second card Jack?
Solution:
The Required Probability = P(The first is a red jack and the second is a jack card) or (The first is a red non-jack card and the second is a jack card)
= \(\frac{2}{52} \times \frac{3}{51}\) + \(\frac{24}{52} \times \frac{4}{51}\) = \(\frac{1}{26}\)
Question 4.

P divides AB in the ratio 3 : 1 and Q is mid-point of AP. Find the position vector of Q.
Solution:
Coordinates of point P
= \(\frac{3(\vec{a})+1(\vec{b})}{3+1}\) = \(\frac{3 \vec{a}+\vec{b}}{4}\)
Section – B
Questions number 5 to 12 carry 2 marks each.
Question 5.
Prove that: 3 cos-1 x = cos-1 (4x3 – 3x), x ∈ [\(\frac{1}{2}\), 1].
Solution:
RH.S. = cos-1(4x3 – 3x)
= cos-1(4 cos3θ – 3 cos θ) [Let x = cosθ ∴ cos-1 x = θ]
= cos-1(cos3θ) = 3θ
= 3 cos-1 x = L.H.S. (Hence proved)
Question 6.
If A = \(\left[\begin{array}{rr}
2 & 3 \\
5 & -2
\end{array}\right]\) be such that A-1 = kA, then find the value of k.
Solution:
⇒ 2k = \(\frac{2}{19}\)
………… [Equating the corresponding elements
∴ k = \(\frac{1}{19}\)
Question 7.
Differentiate tan-1\(\left[\frac{\cos x-\sin x}{\cos x+\sin x}\right]\) with respect to x.
Solution:
Let y = tan-1\(\left(\frac{\cos x-\sin x}{\cos x+\sin x}\right)\)
Dividing Numerator and Denominator by cos x, we have
y = tan-1\(\left(\frac{1-\tan x}{1+\tan x}\right)\)
y = tan-1\(\left(\tan \left(\frac{\pi}{4}-x\right)\right)\)
y = \(\frac{\pi}{4}\) – x
Differentiating both sides w.r.t. x, we have \(\frac{d y}{d x}\) = -1
\(\frac{d y}{d x}\) = -1
Question 8.
The total revenue received from the sale of x units of a product is given by R(x) = 3x2 + 36x + in rupees. Find the marginal revenue when x = 5, where by marginal revenue we mean the rate of change of total revenue with respect to the number of items sold at an instant.
Solution:
R(x) = 3x2 + 36x + 5
Differentiating both sides w.r.t. x, we have
Marginal Revenue, R'(x) = 6x + 36
When x = 5, R'(5) = 6(5) + 36
= 30 + 36 = ₹ 66
∴ Marginal Revenue is ₹ 66.
Question 9.
Find: \(\int \frac{3-5 \sin x}{\cos ^2 x}\)dx
Solution:
Question 10.
Solve the differential equation cos\(\left(\frac{d y}{d x}\right)\) = a, (a ∈ IR).
Solution:
cos \(\left(\frac{d y}{d x}\right)\) = a
\(\frac{d y}{d x}\) = cos-1a
dy = cos-1a∫dy ……… [Integrating both sides]
y = x . cos-1 a + C
y – C = x cos-1 a
\(\frac{y-C}{x}\) = cos-1 a
cos\(\left(\frac{y-C}{x}\right)\) = a is the solution of the differential equation.
Question 11.
If \(\vec{a}+\vec{b}+\vec{c}\) = \(\overrightarrow{0}\) and \(|\vec{a}|\) = 5, \(|\vec{b}|\) = 6 and \(|\vec{c}|\) = 9, then find the angle between a and b.

Solution:
Question 16.
Find the intervals in which the function f(x) = -2x3 – 9x2 – 12x + 1 is
(i) Strictly increasing,
(ii) Strictly decreasing.
Solution:
f(x) = -2x3 – 9x2 – 12x + 1
Differentiating both sides w.r.t. x, we have
f’(x) = -6x2 – 18x – 12
= -6(x2 + 3x + 2)
= -6(x2 + 2t + x + 2)
= -6[x(x + 2) + 1(x + 2)]
= -6(x + 2) (x + 1)
When f’(x) = 0, x = -2, -1
(i) f is strictly increasing in (-2, -1).
(ii) f is strictly decreasing in (-∞, -2) ∪ (-1, ∞).
Question 17.
A window is in the form of a rectangle surmounted by a semicircular opening. The total perimeter of the window is 10 metres. Find the dimensions of the window to admit maximum light through the whole opening.
Solution:
Let length of rectangular window = 2x m
Let breadth of rectangular window = y m
∴ Radius of rectangular window = x m
Perimeter of window = 10 m
∴ y + 2x + y + πx = 10
…..[∵ Perimeter of semi-circle = πr
2y = 10 – 2x – πx
y = \(\frac{10-2 x-\pi x}{2}\) ……….. (i)
y = \(\left(5-x-\frac{\pi}{2} x\right)\)
Area of window = Area of rectangle + Area of semi-circle
∴ Area is maximum at x = \(\frac{10}{4+\pi}\) m
∴ Maximum light will enter the window when radius = \(\frac{10}{4+\pi}\) m.
Length of rectangle window
= 2x = \(\frac{20}{4+\pi}\) m,
Breadth of rectangle window, y
= 5 – \(\frac{10}{4+\pi}\) – \(\frac{\pi}{2}\left(\frac{10}{4+\pi}\right)\)
= \(\frac{20+5 \pi-10-5 \pi}{4+\pi}\) = \(\frac{10}{4+\pi}\) m

Further, if the first group wins, the probability of introducing a new product is 0.7 and the corresponding probability is 0.3 if the second group wins. Find the probability that the new product introduced was by the second group.
Solution:
Let E1, E2, A be the following events.
E1 : 1st group will win
E2: 2nd group will win
A : Introducing a new product
P(E1) = 0.6, P(A | E1) = 0.7
P(E2) = 0.4, P(A | E2) = 0.3

Questions number 24 to 29 carry 6 marks each.
Question 24.
Show that the relation R on the set Z of all integers defined by (x, y) ∈ R ⇔ (x – y) is divisible by 3 is an equivalence relation.
Solution:
R = {(x, y): x, y ∈ Z and (x – y) is divisible by 3}
Reflexive: R is reflexive, for x ∈ Z
x – x = 0, which is divisible by 3
(x, x) ∈ R ∴ R is reflexive.
Symmetric:
R is symmetric, (x, y) ∈ R where x, y ∈ Z
x – y is divisible by 3.
Let (x – y) = 3 m, where in m ∈ Z
-(y – x) = 3 m
(y – x) = -3 m
(y – x) is divisible by 3.
(y – x) ∈ R ∴ R is symmetric.
Transitive:
R is transitive, (x, y) ∈ R where x, y ∈ Z
x – y is divisible by 3.
x – y = 3 in, where m ∈ Z
For (y, z) ∈ Z, where y, Z ∈ Z
y – z is divisible by 3.
y – z = 3 n, where n ∈ Z …….(ii)
Adding (i) and (ii),
(x – y) + (y – z) = 3m + 3n
x – z = 3(m+n)
⇒ (x – z) is divisible by 3.
(x, y) ∈ R, (y, z) ∈ R
∴ (x, z) ∈ R where x, y, z ∈ Z
R is transitive.
Since R is reflexive, symmetric and transitive.
∴ R is an equivalence relation.
