(A) 3
(B) 5
(C) 2
(D) 7
Answer:
(B) 5
Hint:
log (5x – 9) – log (x + 3) = log 2
∴ \(\frac{5 x-9}{x+3}\) = 2
∴ 3x = 9 + 6
∴ x = 5

Question 2.
If log₁₀ (log₁₀ (log₁₀ x)) = 0, then x = ________
(A) 1000
(B) 10¹⁰
(C) 10
(D) 0
Answer:
(B) 10¹⁰
Hint:
log₁₀ log₁₀ log₁₀ x = 0
∴ log₁₀ (log₁₀ (x)) = 10⁰ = 1
∴ log₁₀ x = 10¹ = 10
∴ x = 10¹⁰

Question 3.
Find x, if 2 log₂ x = 4
(A) 4, -4
(B) 4
(C) -4
(D) not defined
Answer:
(B) 4
Hint:
2 log₂ x = 4, x > 0
∴ log₂ (x²) = 4
∴ x² = 16
∴ x = ±4
∴ x = 4

Question 4.
The equation \(\log _{x^{2}} 16+\log _{2 x} 64=3\) has,
(A) one irrational solution
(B) no prime solution
(C) two real solutions
(D) one integral solution
Answer:
(A), (B), (C), (D)
Hint:
\(\log _{x^{2}} 16+\log _{2 x} 64=3\)
∴ \(\frac{\log 16}{\log x^{2}}+\frac{\log 64}{\log 2 x}=3\)
∴ 4 log 2 [log x + log 2] + (6 log 2) (2 log x) = 3 (2 log x) (log 2 + log x)
Let log 2 = a, log x = t. Then
∴ 4at + 4a² + 12at = 6at + 6t²
∴ 6t² – 10at – 4a² = 0
∴ 3t² – 5at – 2a² = 0
∴ (3t + a) (t – 2a) = 0
∴ t = \(-\frac{1}{3}\)a, 2a
∴ log x = \(\log (2)^{-\frac{1}{3}}\), log (2²)
∴ x = \(2^{-\frac{1}{3}}\), 4
∴ x = \(\frac{1}{\sqrt[3]{2}}\), 4

Question 5.

(A) \(\frac{x-1}{3 x+2}\)
(B) \(\frac{x+1}{3 x-2}\)
(C) \(\frac{2 x+1}{1-3 x}\)
(D) \(\frac{3 x+2}{x-1}\)
Answer:
(A) \(\frac{x-1}{3 x+2}\)
Hint:
f(x) = \(\frac{2 x+1}{1-3 x}\) = y, say. then
2x + 1 = y(1 – 3x)
∴ y – 1 = x(2 + 3y)
∴ x = \(\frac{y-1}{2+3 y}\) = f^-1 (y)
∴ f^-1 (x) = \(\frac{x-1}{2+3 x}\)

Question 8.
If f(x) = 2x² + bx + c and f(0) = 3 and f(2) = 1, then f(1) is equal to
(A) -2
(B) 0
(C) 1
(D) 2
Answer:
(B) 0
Hint:
f(x) = 2x² + bx + c
f(0) = 3
∴ 2(0) + b(0) + c = 3
∴ c = 3 ……..(i)
∴ f(2) = 1
∴ 2(4) + 2b + c = 1
∴ 2b + c = -7
∴ 2b + 3 = -7 …..[From (i)]
∴ b = -5
∴ f(x) = 2x² – 5x + 3
∴ f(1) = 2(1)² – 5(1) + 3 = 0

Question 9.
The domain of \(\frac{1}{[x]-x}\), where [x] is greatest integer function is
(A) R
(B) Z
(C) R – Z
(D) Q – {0}
Answer:
(C) R – Z
Hint:
f(x) = \(\frac{1}{[x]-x}=\frac{1}{-\{x\}}\)
For f to be defined, {x} ≠ 0
∴ x cannot be integer.
∴ Domain = R – Z

Question 10.
The domain and range of f(x) = 2 – |x – 5| are
(A) R+, (-∞, 1]
(B) R, (-∞, 2]
(C) R, (-∞, 2)
(D) R+, (-∞, 2]
Answer:
(B) R, (-∞, 2]
Hint:

f(x) = 2 – |x – 5|
= 2 – (5 – x), x < 5
= 2 – (x – 5), x ≥ 5
∴ f(x) = x – 3, x < 5
= 7 – x, x ≥ 5
Domain = R,
Range (from graph) = (-∞, 2]

(II) Answer the following:

Question 1.
Which of the following relations are functions? If it is a function determine its domain and range.
(i) {(2, 1), (4, 2), (6, 3), (8, 4), (10, 5) (12, 6), (14, 7)}
(ii) {(0, 0), (1, 1), (1, -1), (4, 2), (4, -2) (9, 3), (9, -3), (16, 4), (16, -4)}
(iii) {(2, 1), (3, 1), (5, 2)}
Solution:
(i) {(2, 1), (4, 2), (6, 3), (8, 4), (10, 5) (12, 6), (14, 7)}

Every element of set A has been assigned a unique element in set B
∴ Given relation is a function
Domain = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14}, Range = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}

(ii) {(0, 0), (1, 1), (1, -1), (4, 2), (4, -2) (9, 3), (9, -3) (16, 4), (16, -4)}
∵ (1, 1), (1, -1) ∈ the relation
∴ Given relation is not a function.
As element 1 of the domain has not been assigned a unique element of co-domain.

(iii) {(2, 1), (3, 1), (5, 2)}

Every element of set A has been assigned a unique element in set B.
∴ Given relation is a function.
Domain = {2, 3, 5}, Range = {1, 2}

Question 2.
Find whether the following functions are one-one.
(i) f: R → R defined by f(x) = x² + 5
(ii) f: R – {3} → R defined by f(x) = \(\frac{5 x+7}{x-3}\) for x ∈ R – {3}
Solution:
(i) f: R → R, defined by f(x) = x² + 5
Note that f(-x) = f(x) = x² + 5
∴ f is not one-one (i.e., many-one) function.

(ii) f: R – {3} → R, defined by f(x) = \(\frac{5 x+7}{x-3}\)
Let f(x₁) = f(x₂)
∴ \(\frac{5 x_{1}+7}{x_{1}-3}=\frac{5 x_{2}+7}{x_{2}-3}\)
∴ 5x₁ x₂ – 15x₁ + 7x₂ – 21 = 5x₁ x₂ – 15x₂ + 7x₁ – 21
∴ 22(x₁ – x₂) = 0
∴ x₁ = x₂
∴ f is a one-one function.

Question 3.
Find whether the following functions are onto or not.
(i) f: Z → Z defined by f(x) = 6x – 7 for all x ∈ Z
(ii) f: R → R defined by f(x) = x² + 3 for all x ∈ R
Solution:
(i) f(x) = 6x – 7 = y (say)
(x, y ∈ Z)
∴ x = \(\frac{7+y}{6}\)
Since every integer y does not give integer x, f is not onto.

(ii) f(x) = x² + 3 = y (say)
(x, y ∈ R)
Clearly y ≥ 3 …..[x² ≥ 0]
∴ All the real numbers less than 3 from codomain R, have not been pre-assigned any element from the domain R.
∴ f is not onto.

Question 4.
Let f: R → R be a function defined by f(x) = 5x³ – 8 for all x ∈ R. Show that f is one-one and onto. Hence find f^-1.
Solution:

Question 5.
A function f: R → R defined by f(x) = \(\frac{3 x}{5}\) + 2, x ∈ R. Show that f is one-one and onto. Hence find f^-1.
Solution:

Question 6.
A function f is defined as f(x) = 4x + 5, for -4 ≤ x < 0. Find the values of f(-1), f(-2), f(0), if they exist.
Solution:
f(x) = 4x + 5, -4 ≤ x < 0
f(-1) = 4(-1) + 5 = -4 + 5 = 1
f(-2) = 4(-2) + 5 = -8 + 5 = -3
x = 0 ∉ domain of f
∴ f(0) does not exist.

Question 7.
A function f is defined as f(x) = 5 – x for 0 ≤ x ≤ 4. Find the values of x such that
(i) f(x) = 3
(ii) f(x) = 5
Solution:
(i) f(x) = 3
∴ 5 – x = 3
∴ x = 5 – 3 = 2

(ii) f(x) = 5
∴ 5 – x = 5
∴ x = 0

Question 8.
If f(x) = 3x⁴ – 5x² + 7, find f(x – 1).
Solution:
f(x) = 3x⁴ – 5x² + 7
∴ f(x – 1) = 3(x – 1)⁴ – 5(x – 1)² + 7
= 3(x⁴ – ⁴C₁ x³ + ⁴C₂ x² – ⁴C₃ x + ⁴C₄) – 5(x² – 2x + 1) + 7
= 3(x⁴ – 4x³ + 6x² – 4x + 1) – 5(x² – 2x + 1) + 7
= 3x⁴ – 12x³ + 18x² – 12x + 3 – 5x² + 10x – 5 + 7
= 3x⁴ – 12x³ + 13x² – 2x + 5

Question 9.
If f(x) = 3x + a and f(1) = 7, find a and f(4).
Solution:
f(x) = 3x + a, f(1) = 7
∴ 3(1) + a = 7
∴ a = 7 – 3 = 4
∴ f(x) = 3x + 4
∴ f(4) = 3(4) + 4 = 12 + 4 = 16

Question 10.
If f(x) = ax² + bx + 2 and f(1) = 3, f(4) = 42, find a and b.
Solution:
f(x) = ax² + bx + 2
f(1) = 3
∴ a(1)² + b(1) + 2 = 3
∴ a + b = 1 ….(i)
f(4) = 42
∴ a(4)² + b(4) + 2 = 42
∴ 16a + 4b = 40
Dividing by 4, we get
4a + b = 10 …..(ii)
Solving (i) and (ii), we get
a = 3, b = -2

Question 11.
Find composite of f and g:
(i) f = {(1, 3), (2, 4), (3, 5), (4, 6)}
g = {(3, 6), (4, 8), (5, 10), (6, 12)}
(ii) f = {(1, 1), (2, 4), (3, 4), (4, 3)}
g = {(1, 1), (3, 27), (4, 64)}
Solution:
(i) f = {(1, 3), (2, 4), (3, 5), (4, 6)}
g = {(3, 6), (4, 8), (5, 10), (6, 12)}
∴ f(1) = 3, g(3) = 6
f(2) = 4, g(4) = 8
f(3) = 5, g(5)=10
f(4) = 6, g(6) = 12
(gof) (x) = g (f(x))
(gof)(1) = g(f(1)) = g(3) = 6
(gof)(2) – g(f(2)) = g(4) = 8
(gof)(3) = g(f(3)) = g(5) = 10
(gof)(4) = g(f(4)) = g(6) = 12
∴ gof = {(1, 6), (2, 8), (3, 10), (4, 12)}

(ii) f = {(1, 1), (2, 4), (3, 4), (4, 3)}
g = {(1, 1), (3, 27), (4, 64)}
f(1) = 1, g(1) = 1
f(2) = 4, g(3) = 27
f(3) = 4, g(4) = 64
f(4) = 3
(gof) (x) = g(f(x))
(gof) (1) = g(f(1)) = g(1) = 1
(gof) (2) = g(f(2)) = g(4) = 64
(gof) (3) = g(f(3)) = g(4) = 64
(gof) (4) = g(f(4)) = g(3) = 27
∴ gof = {(1, 1), (2, 64), (3, 64), (4, 27)}

Question 12.
Find fog and gof:
(i) f(x) = x² + 5, g(x) = x – 8
(ii) f(x) = 3x – 2, g(x) = x²
(iii) f(x) = 256x⁴, g(x) = √x
Solution:
(i) f(x) = x² + 5, g(x) = x – 8
(fog) (x) = f(g(x))
= f(x – 8)
= (x – 8)² + 5
= x² – 16x + 64 + 5
= x² – 16x + 69
(gof) (x) = g(f(x))
= g(x² + 5)
= x² + 5 – 8
= x – 3

(ii) f(x) = 3x – 2, g(x) = x²
(fog) (x) = f(g(x)) = f(x²) = 3x² – 2
(gof) (x) = g(f(x))
= g(3x – 2)
= (3x – 2)²
= 9x² – 12x + 4

(iii) f(x) = 256x⁴, g(x) = √x
(fog) (x) = f(g(x)) = f (√x) = 256 (√x)⁴ = 256x²
(gof) (x) = g(f(x)) = g(256x⁴) = \(\sqrt{256 x^{4}}\) = 16x²

Solution:
f(x) = \(\frac{x+3}{4 x-5}\), g(x) = \(\frac{3+5 x}{4 x-1}\)
(fog)(x) = f(g(x))
= f(\(\frac{3+5 x}{4 x-1}\))

Let f: R – {2} → R be defined by f(x) = \(\frac{x^{2}-4}{x-2}\) and g: R → R be defined by g(x) = x + 2. Examine whether f = g or not.
Solution:
f(x) = \(\frac{x^{2}-4}{x-2}\), x ≠ 2
∴ f(x) = x + 2, x ≠ 2 and g(x) = x + 2,
The domain of f = R – {2}
The domain of g = R
Here, f and g have different domains.
∴ f ≠ g

Question 18.
For any base show that log(1 + 2 + 3) = log 1 + log 2 + log 3
Solution:
L.H.S. = log(1 + 2 + 3) = log 6
R.H.S. = log 1 + log 2 + log 3
= 0 + log (2 × 3)
= log 6
∴ L.H.S. = R.H.S.

Question 19.
Find x, if x = \(3^{3 \log _{3} 2}\).
Solution:
x = \(3^{3 \log _{3} 2}\)
= \(3^{\log 3\left(2^{3}\right)}\)
= 2³ ….[\(a^{\log _{a} b}\) = b]
= 8

Question 20.

Solution:
L.H.S. = log|\(\sqrt{x^{2}+1}\) + x| + log|\(\sqrt{x^{2}+1}\) – x|
= \(\log \left|\left(\sqrt{x^{2}+1}+x\right)\left(\sqrt{x^{2}+1}-x\right)\right|\)
= log|x² + 1 – x²|
= log 1
= 0
= R.H.S.

Solution:

Question 22.
Simplify log (log x⁴) – log(log x).
Solution:
log (log x⁴) – log (log x)
= log (4 log x) – log (log x) …..[log mⁿ = n log m]
= log 4 + log (log x) – log (log x) …..[log (mn) = log m + log n]
= log 4

Question 23.
Simplify \(\log _{10} \frac{28}{45}-\log _{10} \frac{35}{324}+\log _{10} \frac{325}{432}-\log _{10} \frac{13}{15}\)
Solution:

Question 24.
If log (\(\frac{a+b}{2}\)) = \(\frac{1}{2}\) (log a + log b), then show that a = b.
Solution:
log (\(\frac{a+b}{2}\)) = \(\frac{1}{2}\) (log a + log b)
∴ 2 log (\(\frac{a+b}{2}\)) = log a + log b
∴ log \(\left(\frac{a+b}{2}\right)^{2}\) = log ab
∴ \(\frac{(a+b)^{2}}{4}\) = ab
∴ a² + 2ab + b² = 4ab
∴ a² + 2ab – 4ab + b² = 0
∴ a² – 2ab + b² = 0
∴ (a – b)² = 0
∴ a – b = 0
∴ a = b

Question 25.
If b² = ac. Prove that, log a + log c = 2 log b.
Solution:
b² = ac
Taking log on both sides, we get
log b² = log ac
∴ 2 log b = log a + log c
∴ log a + log c = 2 log b

Question 26.
Solve for x, log_x (8x – 3) – log_x 4 = 2.
Solution:
log_x (8x – 3) – log_x 4 = 2
∴ \(\log _{x}\left(\frac{8 x-3}{4}\right)\) = 2
∴ x² = \(\frac{8 x-3}{4}\)
∴ 4x² = 8x – 3
∴ 4x² – 8x + 3 = 0
∴ 4x² – 2x – 6x + 3 = 0
∴ 2x(2x – 1) – 3(2x – 1) = 0
∴ (2x – 1)(2x – 3) = 0
∴ 2x – 1 = 0 or 2x – 3 = 0
∴ x = \(\frac{1}{2}\) or x = \(\frac{3}{2}\)

Question 27.
If a² + b² = 7ab, show that \(\log \left(\frac{a+b}{3}\right)=\frac{1}{2} \log a+\frac{1}{2} \log b\)
Solution:
a² + b² = 7ab
a² + 2ab + b² = 7ab + 2ab
(a + b)² = 9ab
\(\frac{(a+b)^{2}}{9}\) = ab
\(\left(\frac{a+b}{3}\right)^{2}\) = ab
Taking log on both sides, we get
log \(\left(\frac{a+b}{3}\right)^{2}\) = log (ab)
2 log \(\left(\frac{a+b}{3}\right)\) = log a + log b
Dividing throughout by 2, we get
\(\log \left(\frac{a+b}{3}\right)=\frac{1}{2} \log a+\frac{1}{2} \log b\)

Question 28.
If \(\log \left(\frac{x-y}{5}\right)=\frac{1}{2} \log x+\frac{1}{2} \log y\), show that x² + y² = 27xy.
Solution:

Question 29.
If log₃ [log₂ (log₃ x)] = 1, show that x = 6561.
Solution:
log₃ [log₂ (log₃ x)] = 1
∴ log₂ (log₃ x) = 3¹
∴ log₃ x = 2³
∴ log₃ x = 8
∴ x = 3⁸
∴ x = 6561

Question 30.
If f(x) = log(1 – x), 0 ≤ x < 1, show that f(\(\frac{1}{1+x}\)) = f(1 – x) – f(-x).
Solution:

Question 31.
Without using log tables, prove that \(\frac{2}{5}\) < log₁₀ 3 < \(\frac{1}{2}\).
Solution:
We have to prove that, \(\frac{2}{5}\) < log₁₀ 3 < \(\frac{1}{2}\)
i.e., to prove that \(\frac{2}{5}\) < log₁₀ 3 and log₁₀ 3 < \(\frac{1}{2}\)
i.e., to prove that 2 < 5 log₁₀ 3 and 2 log₁₀ 3 < 1
i.e., to prove that 2 log₁₀ 10 < 5 log₁₀ 3 and 2 log₁₀ 3 < log₁₀ 10 ……[∵ log_a a = 1]
i.e., to prove that log₁₀ 10² < log₁₀ 3⁵ and log₁₀ 3² < log₁₀ 10
i.e., to prove that 10² < 3⁵ and 3² < 10
i.e., to prove that 100 < 243 and 9 < 10 which is true
∴ \(\frac{2}{5}\) < log₁₀ 3 < \(\frac{1}{2}\)

Question 32.
Show that \(7 \log \left(\frac{15}{16}\right)+6 \log \left(\frac{8}{3}\right)+5 \log \left(\frac{2}{5}\right)+\log \left(\frac{32}{25}\right)\) = log 3

Solution:

Question 35.
If \(\frac{\log a}{x+y-2 z}=\frac{\log b}{y+z-2 x}=\frac{\log c}{z+x-2 y}\), show that abc = 1.
Solution:
Let \(\frac{\log a}{x+y-2 z}=\frac{\log b}{y+z-2 x}=\frac{\log c}{z+x-2 y}\) = k
∴ log a = k(x + y – 2z), log b = k(y + z – 2x), log c = k(z + x – 2y)
log a + log b + log c = k(x + y – 2z) + k(y + z – 2x) + k(z + x – 2y)
= k(x + y – 2z + y + z – 2x + z + x – 2y)
= k(0)
= 0
∴ log (abc) = log 1 …….[∵ log 1 = 0]
∴ abc = 1

(viii) \(\left[\frac{x}{2}\right]+\left[\frac{x}{3}\right]=\frac{5 x}{6}\)
Solution:
(i) 1 < |x – 1| < 4
∴ -4 < x – 1 < -1 or 1 < x – 1 < 4
∴ -3 < x < 0 or 2 < x < 5
∴ Solution set = (-3, 0) ∪ (2, 5)

(ii) |x² – x – 6| = x + 2 …..(i)
R.H.S. must be non-negative
∴ x ≥ -2 …..(ii)
|(x – 3) (x + 2)| = x + 2
∴ (x + 2) |x – 3| = x + 2 as x + 2 ≥ 0
∴ |x – 3| = 1 if x ≠ -2
∴ x – 3 = ±1
∴ x = 4 or 2
∴ x = -2 also satisfies the equation
∴ Solution set = {-2, 2, 4}

(iii) |x² – 9| + |x² – 4| = 5
∴ |(x – 3) (x + 3)| + |(x – 2) ( x + 2)| = 5 ………(i)
Case I: x < -3
Also, x < -2, x < 2, x < 3
∴ (x – 3) (x + 3) > 0 and (x – 2) (x + 2) > 0
Equation (i) reduces to
x² – 9 + x² – 4 = 5
∴ 2x² = 18
∴ x = -3 or 3 (both rejected as x < -3)

Case II: -3 ≤ x < -2
As x < -2, x < 3
∴ (x – 3) (x + 3) < 0, (x – 2) (x + 2) > 0

-(x² – 9) + x² – 4 = 5
∴ 5 = 5 (true)
-3 ≤ x < -2 is a solution ….(ii)

9 – x² + 4 – x2 = 5
∴ 2x² = 13 – 5
∴ x² = 4
∴ x = -2 is a solution …..(iii)

∴ (x – 3) (x + 3) < 0, (x – 2) (x + 2) > 0
Equation (i) reduces to
9 – x² + x² – 4 = 5
∴ 5 = 5 (true)
∴ 2 ≤ x < 3 is a solution ……(iv)

Case V: 3 ≤ x As x > -3, x > -2, x > 2
∴ (x + 3) (x – 3) > 0,
(x – 2) (x + 2) > 0
Equation (i) reduces to
x² – 9 + x² – 4 = 5
∴ 2x² = 18
∴ x² = 9
∴ x = 3 …..(v)

From (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), we get
∴ Solution set = [-3, -2] ∪ [2, 3]

(iv) -2 < [x] ≤ 7
∴ -2 < x < 8
∴ Solution set = (-2, 8)

(v) 2[2x – 5] – 1 = 7
∴ [2x – 5] = \(\frac{7+1}{2}\) = 4
∴ [2x] – 5 = 4
∴ [2x] = 9
∴ 9 ≤ 2x < 10
∴ \(\frac{9}{2}\) ≤ x < 5
∴ Solution set = [\(\frac{9}{2}\), 5)

(vi) [x]² – 5[x] + 6 = 0
∴ ([x] – 3)([x] – 2) = 0
∴ [x] = 3 or 2
If [x] = 2, then 2 ≤ x < 3
If [x] = 3, then 3 ≤ x < 4
∴ Solution set = [2, 4)

(vii) [x – 2] + [x + 2] + {x} = 0
∴ [x] – 2 + [x] + 2 + {x} = 0
∴ [x] + x = 0 …..[{x} + [x] = x]
∴ x = 0

(viii) \(\left[\frac{x}{2}\right]+\left[\frac{x}{3}\right]=\frac{5 x}{6}\)
L.H.S. = an integer
R.H.S. = an integer
∴ x = 6k, where k is an integer

Question 40.
Find the domain of the following functions.
(i) f(x) = \(\frac{x^{2}+4 x+4}{x^{2}+x-6}\)
(ii) f(x) = \(\sqrt{x-3}+\frac{1}{\log (5-x)}\)

(vi) f(x) = \(\sqrt{x-x^{2}}+\sqrt{5-x}\)
(vii) f(x) = \(\sqrt{\log \left(x^{2}-6 x+6\right)}\)
Solution:
(i) f(x) = \(\frac{x^{2}+4 x+4}{x^{2}+x-6}=\frac{x^{2}+4 x+4}{(x+3)(x-2)}\)
For f to be defined, x ≠ -3, 2
∴ Domain of f = (-∞, -3) ∪ (-3, 2) ∪ (2, ∞)

(ii) f(x) = \(\sqrt{x-3}+\frac{1}{\log (5-x)}\)
For f to be defined,
x – 3 ≥ 0, 5 – x > 0 and 5 – x ≠ 1
x ≥ 3, x < 5 and x ≠ 4
∴ Domain of f = [3, 4) ∪ (4, 5)

(iii) f(x) = \(\sqrt{1-\sqrt{1-\sqrt{1-x^{2}}}}\)

Equation (i) gives solution set = [-1, 1]
∴ Domain of f = [-1, 1]

(iv) f(x) = x!
∴ Domain of f = set of whole numbers (W)

(v) f(x) = \({ }^{5-x} P_{x-1}\)
5 – x > 0, x – 1 ≥ 0, x – 1 ≤ 5 – x
∴ x < 5, x ≥ 1 and 2x ≤ 6
∴ x ≤ 3
∴ Domain of f = {1, 2, 3}

(vi) f(x) = \(\sqrt{x-x^{2}}+\sqrt{5-x}\)
x – x² ≥ 0
∴ x² – x ≤ 0
∴ x(x – 1) ≤ 0
∴ 0 ≤ x ≤ 1 …..(i)
5 – x ≥ 0
∴ x ≤ 5 …..(ii)
Intersection of intervals given in (i) and (ii) gives
Solution set = [0, 1]
∴ Domain of f = [0, 1]

(vii) f(x) = \(\sqrt{\log \left(x^{2}-6 x+6\right)}\)
For f to be defined,
log (x² – 6x + 6) ≥ 0
∴ x² – 6x + 6 ≥ 1
∴ x² – 6x + 5 ≥ 0
∴ (x – 5)(x – 1) ≥ 0
∴ x ≤ 1 or x ≥ 5 …..(i)
[∵ The solution of (x – a) (x – b) ≥ 0 is x ≤ a or x ≥ b, for a < b]
and x² – 6x + 6 > 0
∴ (x – 3)² > -6 + 9
∴ (x – 3)² > 3
∴ x < 3 – √3 0r x > 3 + √3 ……..(ii)
From (i) and (ii), we get
x ≤ 1 or x ≥ 5
Solution set = (-∞, 1] ∪ [5, ∞)
∴ Domain of f = (-∞, 1] ∪ [5, ∞)

Question 41.
(i) f(x) = |x – 5|
(ii) f(x) = \(\frac{x}{9+x^{2}}\)
(iii) f(x) = \(\frac{1}{1+\sqrt{x}}\)
(iv) f(x) = [x] – x
(v) f(x) = 1 + 2x + 4x
Solution:
(i) f(x) = |x – 5|

∴ Range of f = [0, ∞)

(ii) f(x) = \(\frac{x}{9+x^{2}}\) = y (say)
∴ x²y – x + 9y = 0
For real x, Discriminant > 0
∴ 1 – 4(y)(9y) ≥ 0
∴ y² ≤ \(\frac{1}{36}\)
∴ \(\frac{-1}{6}\) ≤ y ≤ \(\frac{1}{6}\)
∴ Range of f = [\(\frac{-1}{6}\), \(\frac{1}{6}\)]

(iii) f(x) = \(\frac{1}{1+\sqrt{x}}\) = y, (say)
∴ √x y + y = 1
∴ √x = \(\frac{1-y}{y}\) ≥ 0
∴ \(\frac{y-1}{y}\) ≤ 0
∴ o < y ≤ 1
∴ Range of f = (0, 1]

(iv) f(x) = [x] – x = -{x}
∴ Range of f = (-1, 0] …..[0 ≤ {x} < 1]

(v) f(x) = 1 + 2x + 4x
Since, 2x > 0, 4x > 0
∴ f(x) > 1
∴ Range of f = (1, ∞)

Question 42.
Find (fog) (x) and (gof) (x)
(i) f(x) = e^x, g(x) = log x
(ii) f(x) = \(\frac{x}{x+1}\), g(x) = \(\frac{x}{1-x}\)
Solution:
(i) f(x) = e^x, g(x) = log x
(fog) (x) = f(g(x))
= f(log x)
= e^{log x}
= x
(gof) (x) = g(f(x))
= g(e^x)
= log (e^x)
= x log e
= x …..[∵ log e = 1]

(ii) f(x) = \(\frac{x}{x+1}\), g(x) = \(\frac{x}{1-x}\)

Question 43.
Find f(x), if
(i) g(x) = x² + x – 2 and (gof) (x) = 4x² – 10x + 4
(ii) g(x) = 1 + √x and f [g(x)] = 3 + 2√x + x.
Solution:
(i) g(x) = x² + x – 2
(gof) (x) = 4x² – 10x + 4
= (2x – 3)² + (2x – 3) – 2
= g(2x – 3)
= g(f(x))
∴ f(x) = 2x – 3
(gof) (x) = 4x² – 10x + 4
= (-2x + 2)² + (-2x + 2) – 2
= g(-2x + 2)
= g(f(x))
∴ f(x) = -2x + 2

(ii) g(x) = 1 + √x
f(g(x)) = 3 + 2√x + x
= x + 2√x + 1 + 2
= (√x + 1)² + 2
f(√x + 1) = (√x + 1)² + 2
∴ f(x) = x² + 2

Question 44.
Find (fof) (x) if
(i) f(x) = \(\frac{x}{\sqrt{1+x^{2}}}\)
(ii) f(x) = \(\frac{2 x+1}{3 x-2}\)

Out of these 9 books, 2 books on English, 3 books on Hindi and 4 books on mathematics are identical.
∴ Total number of arrangements possible = \(\frac{9 !}{2 ! 3 ! 4 !}\)
= \(\frac{9 \times 8 \times 7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4 !}{2 \times 3 \times 2 \times 4 !}\)
= 9 × 4 × 7 × 5
= 1260

Question 3.
A coin is tossed 8 times. In how many ways can we obtain (a) 4 heads and 4 tails? (b) at least 6 heads?
Solution:
A coin is tossed 8 times. All heads are identical and all tails are identical.
(a) 4 heads and 4 tails are to be obtained.
∴ Number of ways it can be obtained = \(\frac{8 !}{4 ! 4 !}\)
= \(\frac{8 \times 7 \times 6 \times 5}{4 \times 3 \times 2}\)
= 70

(b) At least 6 heads are to be obtained.
∴ Outcome can be (6 heads and 2 tails) or (7 heads and 1 tail) or (8 heads)
∴ Number of ways it can be obtained = \(\frac{8 !}{6 ! 2 !}+\frac{8 !}{7 ! 1 !}+\frac{8 !}{8 !}\)
= \(\frac{8 \times 7}{2}\) + 8 + 1
= 28 + 8 + 1
= 37

Question 4.
A bag has 5 red, 4 blue, and 4 green marbles. If all are drawn one by one and their colours are recorded, how many different arrangements can be found?
Solution:
There is a total of 13 marbles in a bag.
Out of these 5 are Red, 4 Blue, and 4 are Green marbles.
All balls of the same colour are taken to be identical.
∴ Required number of arrangements = \(\frac{13 !}{5 ! 4 ! 4 !}\)

Question 5.
Find the number of ways of arranging letters of the word MATHEMATICAL. How many of these arrangements have all vowels together?
Solution:
There are 12 letters in the word MATHEMATICAL in which ‘M’ is repeated 2 times, ‘A’ repeated 3 times and ‘T’ repeated 2 times.
∴ Required number of arrangements = \(\frac{12 !}{2 ! 3 ! 2 !}\)
When all the vowels,
i.e., ‘A’, ‘A’, ‘A’, ‘E’, ‘I’ are to be kept together.
Let us consider them as one unit.
Number of arrangements of these vowels among themselves = \(\frac{5 !}{3 !}\) ways.
This unit is to be arranged with 7 other letters in which ‘M’ and ‘T’ repeated 2 times each.
∴ Number of such arrangements = \(\frac{8 !}{2 ! 2 !}\)
∴ Required number of arrangements = \(\frac{8 ! \times 5 !}{2 ! 2 ! 3 !}\)

Question 6.
Find the number of different arrangements of letters in the word MAHARASHTRA. How many of these arrangements have (a) letters R and H never together? (b) all vowels together?
Solution:
There are 11 letters in the word MAHARASHTRA in which ‘A’ is repeated 4 times, ‘H’ repeated 2 times, and ‘R’ repeated 2 times.
∴ Total number of words can be formed = \(\frac{11 !}{4 ! 2 ! 2 !}\)

(a) When letters R and H are never together.
Other than 2R, 2H there are 4A, 1S, 1T, 1M.
These letters can be arranged in \(\frac{7 !}{4 !}\) ways = 210.
These seven letters create 8 gaps in which 2R, 2H are to be arranged.
Number of ways to do = \(\frac{{ }^{8} \mathrm{P}_{4}}{2 ! 2 !}\) = 420
Required number of arrangements = 210 × 420 = 88200.

(b) When all vowels are together.
There are 4 vowels in the word MAHARASHTRA, i.e., A, A, A, A.
Let us consider these 4 vowels as one unit, which can be arranged among themselves in \(\frac{4 !}{4 !}\) = 1 way.
This unit is to be arranged with 7 other letters in which ‘H’ is repeated 2 times, ‘R’ is repeated 2 times.
∴ Total number of arrangements = \(\frac{8 !}{2 ! 2 !}\)

Question 7.
How many different words are formed if the letter R is used thrice and letters S and T are used twice each?
Solution:
To find the number of different words when ‘R’ is taken thrice, ‘S’ is taken twice and ‘T’ is taken twice.
∴ Total number of letters available = 7, of which ‘S’ and ‘T’ repeat 2 times each, ‘R’ repeats 3 times.
∴ Required number of words = \(\frac{7 !}{2 ! 2 ! 3 !}\)
= \(\frac{7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 !}{2 \times 1 \times 2 \times 1 \times 3 !}\)
= 7 × 6 × 5
= 210

Question 8.
Find the number of arrangements of letters in the word MUMBAI so that the letter B is always next to A.
Solution:
There are 6 letters in the word MUMBAI.
These letters are to be arranged in such a way that ‘B’ is always next to ‘A’.
Let us consider AB as one unit.
This unit with the other 4 letters in which ‘M’ repeats twice is to be arranged.
∴ Required number of arrangements = \(\frac{5 !}{2 !}\)
= \(\frac{5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 !}{2 !}\)
= 60

Question 9.
Find the number of arrangements of letters in the word CONSTITUTION that begin and end with N.
Solution:
There are 12 letters in the word CONSTITUTION, in which ‘O’, ‘N’, ‘I’ repeat two times each, ‘T’ repeats 3 times.
When the arrangement starts and ends with ‘N’,
other 10 letters can be arranged between two N,
in which ‘O’ and ‘I’ repeat twice each and ‘T’ repeats 3 times.
∴ Required number of arrangements = \(\frac{10 !}{2 ! 2 ! 3 !}\)

Question 10.
Find the number of different ways of arranging letters in the word ARRANGE. How many of these arrangements do not have the two R’s and two A’s together?
Solution:
There are 7 letters in the word ARRANGE in which ‘A’ and ‘R’ repeat 2 times each.
∴ Number of ways to arrange the letters of word ARRANGE = \(\frac{7 !}{2 ! 2 !}\) = 1260
Consider the words in which 2A are together and 2R are together.
Let us consider 2A as one unit and 2R as one unit.
These two units with remaining 3 letters can be arranged in = \(\frac{5 !}{2 ! 2 !}\) = 30 ways.
Number of arrangements in which neither 2A together nor 2R are together = 1260 – 30 = 1230

Question 11.
How many distinct 5 digit numbers can be formed using the digits 3, 2, 3, 2, 4, 5.
Solution:
5 digit numbers are to be formed from 2, 3, 2, 3, 4, 5.
Case I: Numbers formed from 2, 2, 3, 4, 5 OR 2, 3, 3, 4, 5
Number of such numbers = \(\frac{5 !}{2 !}+\frac{5 !}{2 !}\) = 5! = 120
Case II: Numbers are formed from 2, 2, 3, 3 and any one of 4 or 5
Number of such numbers = \(\frac{5 !}{2 ! 2 !}+\frac{5 !}{2 ! 2 !}\) = 60
Required number of numbers = 120 + 60 = 180

Question 12.
Find the number of distinct numbers formed using the digits 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, so that odd positions are occupied by odd digits.
Solution:
A number is to be formed with digits 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 such that odd digits always occupy the odd places.
There are 4 odd digits, i.e. 3, 5, 7, 9.
∴ They can be arranged at 4 odd places among themselves in 4! = 24 ways.
There are 3 even digits, i.e. 4, 6, 8.
∴ They can be arranged at 3 even places among themselves in 3! = 6 ways.
∴ Required number of numbers formed = 24 × 6 = 144

Question 13.
How many different 6-digit numbers can be formed using digits in the number 659942? How many of them are divisible by 4?
Solution:
A 6-digit number is to be formed using digits of 659942, in which 9 repeats twice.
∴ Required number of numbers formed = \(\frac{6 !}{2 !}\)
= \(\frac{6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 !}{2 !}\)
= 360
A 6-digit number is to be formed using the same digits that are divisible by 4.
For a number to be divisible by 4, the last two digits should be divisible by 4,
i.e. 24, 52, 56, 64, 92 or 96.
Case I: When the last two digits are 24, 52, 56 or 64.
As the digit 9 repeats twice in the remaining four numbers, the number of arrangements = \(\frac{4 !}{2 !}\) = 12
∴ 6-digit numbers that are divisible by 4 so formed are 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 = 48.
Case II: When the last two digits are 92 or 96.
As each of the remaining four numbers are distinct, the number of arrangements = 4! = 24
∴ 6-digit numbers that are divisible by 4 so formed are 24 + 24 = 48.
∴ Required number of numbers framed = 48 + 48 = 96

Question 14.
Find the number of distinct words formed from letters in the word INDIAN. How many of them have the two N’s together?
Solution:
There are 6 letters in the word INDIAN in which I and N are repeated twice.
Number of different words that can be formed using the letters of the word INDIAN = \(\frac{6 !}{2 ! 2 !}\)
= \(\frac{6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 !}{2 \times 2 !}\)
= 180
When two N’s are together.
Let us consider the two N’s as one unit.
They can be arranged with 4 other letters in \(\frac{5 !}{2 !}\)
= \(\frac{5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 !}{2 !}\)
= 60 ways.
∴ 2 N can be arranged in \(\frac{2 !}{2 !}\) = 1 way.
∴ Required number of words = 60 × 1 = 60

Question 15.
Find the number of different ways of arranging letters in the word PLATOON if (a) the two O’s are never together. (b) consonants and vowels occupy alternate positions.
Solution:
There are 7 letters in the words PLATOON in which ‘O’ repeat 2 times.
(a) When the two O’s are never together.
Let us arrange the other 5 letters first, which can be done in 5! = 120 ways.
The letters P, L, A, T, N create 6 gaps, in which O’s are arranged.
Two O’s can take their places in ⁶P₂ ways.
But ‘O’ repeats 2 times.
∴ Two O’s can be arranged in \(\frac{{ }^{6} \mathrm{P}_{2}}{2 !}\)
= \(\frac{\frac{6 !}{(6-2) !}}{2 !}\)
= \(\frac{6 \times 5 \times 4 !}{4 ! \times 2 \times 1}\)
= 3 × 5
= 15 ways
∴ Required number of arrangements = 120 × 15 = 1800

(b) When consonants and vowels occupy alternate positions.
There are 4 consonants and 3 vowels in the word PLATOON.
∴ At odd places, consonants occur and at even places, vowels occur.
4 consonants can be arranged among themselves in 4! ways.
3 vowels in which O occurs twice and A occurs once.
∴ They can be arranged in \(\frac{3 !}{2 !}\) ways.
Now, vowels and consonants should occupy alternate positions.
∴ Required number of arrangements = 4! × \(\frac{3 !}{2 !}\)
= 4 × 3 × 2 × \(\frac{3 \times 2 !}{2 !}\)
= 72

Solution:
Let the three numbers in G.P. be \(\frac{a}{r}\), a, ar.
According to the given conditions,
\(\frac{a}{r}\) + a + ar = 35
a(\(\frac{1}{r}\) + 1 + r) = 35 …..(i)
Also, (\(\frac{a}{r}\))(a)(ar) = 1000
a³ = 1000
∴ a = 10
Substituting the value of a in (i), we get

= 2(1 + 11 + 111 + ….. upto n terms)
= \(\frac{2}{9}\) (9 + 99 + 999 + … upto n terms)
= \(\frac{2}{9}\) [(10 – 1) + (100 – 1) + (1000 – 1) + …… upto n terms]
= \(\frac{2}{9}\) [(10 + 100 + 1000 + … upto n terms) – (1 + 1 + 1 + ….. n times)]
Since 10, 100, 1000, ….. n terms are in G.P. with

Solution:
0.6, 0.66, 0.666, 0.6666, …
∴ t₁ = 0.6
t₂ = 0.66 = 0.6 + 0.06
t₃ = 0.666 = 0.6 + 0.06 + 0.006
Hence, in general
t_n = 0.6 + 0.06 + 0.006 + …..upto n terms.
The terms are in G.P. with
a = 0.6, r = \(\frac{0.06}{0.6}\) = 0.1

Solution:
2, 4, 6, ….. are in A.P.
∴ rth term = 2 + (r – 1) 2 = 2r
6, 9, 12, ….. are in A.P.
∴ rth term = 6 + (r – 1)(3) = (3r + 3)
∴ 2 × 6 + 4 × 9 + 6 × 12 + ….. to n terms

= n(n + 1) [2n + 1 + 3]
= 2n(n + 1)(n + 2)

Question 15.
Find 2 × 5 × 8 + 4 × 7 × 10 + 6 × 9 × 12 + …… upto n terms.
Solution:
2, 4, 6,… are in A.P.

8, 10, 12, … are in A.P.
∴ rth term = 8 + (r – 1) (2) = (2r + 6)
2 × 5 × 8 + 4 × 7 × 10 + 6 × 9 × 12 + ….. to n terms

= 2n (n + 1) [n(n + 1) + 3(2n + 1) + 9]

k² = k² + k – 2
k – 2 = 0

Question 1.
Write the parametric equations of the circles:
(i) x² + y² = 9
(ii) x² + y² + 2x – 4y – 4 = 0
(iii) (x – 3)² + (y + 4)² = 25
Solution:
(i) Given equation of the circle is
x² + y² = 9
⇒ x² + y² = 3²
Comparing this equation with x² + y² = r², we get r = 3
The parametric equations of the circle in terms of θ are
x = r cos θ and y = r sin θ
⇒ x = 3 cos θ and y = 3 sin θ

(ii) Given equation of the circle is
x² + y² + 2x – 4y – 4 = 0
⇒ x² + 2x + y² – 4y – 4 = 0
⇒ x² + 2x + 1 – 1 + y² – 4y + 4 – 4 – 4 = 0
⇒ (x² + 2x + 1 ) + (y² – 4y + 4) – 9 = 0
⇒ (x + 1)² + (y – 2)² = 9
⇒ (x + 1)² + (y – 2)² = 3²
Comparing this equation with (x – h)² + (y – k)² = r², we get
h = -1, k = 2 and r = 3
The parametric equations of the circle in terms of θ are
x = h + r cos θ and y = k + r sin θ
⇒ x = -1 + 3 cos θ and y = 2 + 3 sin θ

(iii) Given equation of the circle is
(x – 3)² + (y + 4)² = 25
⇒ (x – 3)² + (y + 4)² = 5²
Comparing this equation with (x – h)² + (y – k)² = r², we get
h = 3, k = -4 and r = 5
The parametric equations of the circle in terms of θ are
x = h + r cos θ and y = k + r sin θ
⇒ x = 3 + 5 cos θ and y = -4 + 5 sin θ

Question 2.
Find the parametric representation of the circle 3x² + 3y² – 4x + 6y – 4 = 0.
Solution:
Given equation of the circle is 3x² + 3y² – 4x + 6y – 4 = 0
Dividing throughout by 3, we get

Comparing this equation with (x – h)² + (y – k)² = r², we get
h = \(\frac{2}{3}\), k = -1 and r = \(\frac{5}{3}\)
The parametric representation of the circle in terms of θ are
x = h + r cos θ and y = k + r sin θ
⇒ x = \(\frac{2}{3}\) + \(\frac{5}{3}\) cos θ and y = -1 + \(\frac{5}{3}\) sin θ

Question 3.
Find the equation of a tangent to the circle x² + y² – 3x + 2y = 0 at the origin.
Solution:

Comparing this equation with x² + y² + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0, we get
2g = -3, 2f = 2, c = 0
⇒ g = \(-\frac{3}{2}\), f = 1, c = 0
The equation of a tangent to the circle
x² + y² + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0 at (x₁, y₁) is xx₁ +yy₁ + g(x + x₁) + f(y + y₁) + c = 0
The equation of the tangent at (0, 0) is
x(0) + y(0) + (\(-\frac{3}{2}\)) (x + 0) + 1(y + 0) + 0 = 0
⇒ \(-\frac{3}{2}\)x + y = 0
⇒ 3x – 2y = 0

Given equation of the circle is x² + y² + 5x – 7y + 4 = 0
Comparing this equation with x² + y² + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0, we get
2g = 5, 2f = -7, c = 4
⇒ g = \(\frac{5}{2}\), f = \(\frac{-7}{2}\), c = 4
The equation of a tangent to the circle x² + y² + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0 at (x₁, y₁) is
xx₁ + yy₁ + g(x + x₁) + f(y + y₁) + c = 0
The equation of the tangent at (1, 2) is

7x – 3y – 1 = 0, which is same as the given line.
The line 7x – 3y – 1 = 0 touches the given circle at (1, 2).

Solution:
Given equation of the circle is x² + y² – 4x + 3y + 2 = 0
Comparing this equation with x² + y² + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0, we get
2g = -4, 2f = 3, c = 2
g = -2, f = \(\frac{3}{2}\), c = 2
The equation of a tangent to the circle x² + y² + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0 at (x₁, y₁) is
xx₁ + yy₁ + g(x + x₁) + f(y + y₁) + c = 0
The equation of the tangent at (4, -2) is
x(4) + y(-2) – 2(x + 4) + \(\frac{3}{2}\)(y – 2) + 2 = 0
⇒ 4x – 2y – 2x – 8 + \(\frac{3}{2}\) y – 3 + 2 = 0
⇒ 2x – \(\frac{1}{2}\)y – 9 = 0
⇒ 4x – y – 18 = 0

Solution:
Two cards can be drawn from a pack of 52 cards in \({ }^{52} \mathrm{C}_{2}\) ways.
∴ n(S) = \({ }^{52} \mathrm{C}_{2}\)

(a) Let event A: Out of the two cards drawn, one is a face card and the other is an ace card.
There are 12 face cards and 4 ace cards in a pack of 52 cards.
∴ One face card can be drawn from 12 face cards in \({ }^{12} \mathrm{C}_{1}\) ways and one ace card can be drawn from 4 ace cards in \({ }^{4} \mathrm{C}_{1}\) ways.
∴ n(A) = \({ }^{12} \mathrm{C}_{1} \times{ }^{4} \mathrm{C}_{1}\)
∴ P(A) = \(\frac{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{A})}{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{S})}=\frac{{ }^{12} \mathrm{C}_{1} \times{ }^{4} \mathrm{C}_{1}}{{ }^{52} \mathrm{C}_{2}}=\frac{12 \times 4}{\frac{52 \times 51}{2 \times 1}}=\frac{8}{221}\)

A pack of 52 cards consists of 4 suits each containing 13 cards.
∴ 2 cards can be drawn from the same suit in \({ }^{13} \mathrm{C}_{2}\) ways.
∴ n(C) = \({ }^{13} \mathrm{C}_{2} \times 4\)
∴ P(C) = \(\frac{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{C})}{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{S})}=\frac{4 \times{ }^{13} \mathrm{C}_{2}}{{ }^{52} \mathrm{C}_{2}}=\frac{4 \times 13 \times 12}{52 \times 51}=\frac{4}{17}\)

∴ P(D) = \(\frac{n(D)}{n(S)}=\frac{{ }^{26} C_{2}}{{ }^{52} C_{2}}=\frac{26 \times 25}{52 \times 51}=\frac{25}{102}\)

(e) Let event E: Out of the two cards drawn, one is heart and other is non-heart.
There are 13 heart cards in a pack of 52 cards, i.e., 39 cards are non-heart.
∴ One heart card can be drawn from 13 hdart cards in \({ }^{13} \mathrm{C}_{1}\) ways and one non-heart card can be drawn from 39 cards in \({ }^{39} \mathrm{C}_{1}\) ways.
∴ n(E) = \({ }^{13} \mathrm{C}_{1} \times{ }^{39} \mathrm{C}_{1}\)
∴ P(E) = \(\frac{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{E})}{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{S})}=\frac{{ }^{13} \mathrm{C}_{1} \times{ }^{39} \mathrm{C}_{1}}{{ }^{52} \mathrm{C}_{2}}=\frac{13 \times 39}{\frac{52 \times 51}{2 \times 1}}=\frac{13}{34}\)

(d) they are a king, a queen, and a jack.
Solution:
3 cards can be drawn from a pack of 52 cards in \({ }^{52} \mathrm{C}_{3}\) ways.
∴ n(S) = \({ }^{52} \mathrm{C}_{3}\)

(a) Let event A: Out of the three cards drawn, 2 are queens and 1 is an ace card.
There are 4 queens and 4 aces in a pack of 52 cards.
∴ 2 queens can be drawn from 4 queens in \({ }^{4} \mathrm{C}_{2}\) ways and 1 ace can be drawn out of 4 aces in \({ }^{4} \mathrm{C}_{1}\) ways.

(b) Let event B: Out of the three cards drawn, at least one is a diamond.
∴ B’ is the event that all 3 cards drawn are non-diamond cards.
In a pack of 52 cards, there are 39 non-diamond cards.
∴ 3 non-diamond cards can be drawn in \({ }^{39} \mathrm{C}_{3}\) ways.

(c) Let event C: All the cards drawn are from the same suit.
A pack of 52 cards consists of 4 suits each containing 13 cards.

(a) a red bail.
(b) a blue or black ball.
(c) not a black ball.
Solution:
The bag contains 10 red, 4 blue, and 6 black balls,
i.e., 10 + 4 + 6 = 20 balls.
One ball can be drawn from 20 balls in \({ }^{20} \mathrm{C}_{1}\) ways.
∴ n(S) = \({ }^{20} \mathrm{C}_{1}\) = 20

(a) Let event A: Ball drawn is red.
There are total 10 red balls.
∴ 1 red ball can be drawn from 10 red balls in \({ }^{10} \mathrm{C}_{1}\) ways.
∴ n(A) = \({ }^{10} \mathrm{C}_{1}\) = 10
∴ P(A) = \(\frac{n(A)}{n(S)}=\frac{10}{20}=\frac{1}{2}\)

(b) Let event B: The ball drawn is blue or black.
There are 4 blue and 6 black balls.
∴ 1 blue ball can be drawn from 4 blue balls in \({ }^{4} \mathrm{C}_{1}\) ways
or 1 black ball can be drawn from 6 black balls in \({ }^{6} \mathrm{C}_{1}\) ways.
∴ n(B) = \({ }^{4} \mathrm{C}_{1}\) + \({ }^{6} \mathrm{C}_{1}\) = 4 + 6 = 10
∴ P(B) = \(\frac{n(B)}{n(S)}=\frac{10}{20}=\frac{1}{2}\)

(c) Let event C: Ball drawn is not black,
i.e., ball drawn is red or blue.
There are total 14 red and blue balls.
∴ 1 ball can be drawn from 14 balls in \({ }^{14} \mathrm{C}_{1}\) ways.

Solution:
The box contains 75 tickets numbered 1 to 75.
∴ 1 ticket can be drawn from the box in \({ }^{75} \mathrm{C}_{1}\) = 75 ways.
∴ n(S) = 75

(a) Let event A: Number on the ticket is divisible by 6.
∴ A = {6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60, 66, 72}
∴ n(A) = 12
∴ P(A) = \(\frac{n(A)}{n(S)}=\frac{12}{75}=\frac{4}{25}\)

(b) Let event B: Number on the ticket is a perfect square.
∴ B = (1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64}
∴ n(B) = 8
∴ P(B) = \(\frac{n(B)}{n(S)}=\frac{8}{75}\)

(c) Let event C: Number on the ticket is a prime number.
∴C = {2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47, 53, 59, 61, 67, 71, 73}

(d) Let event D: Number on the ticket is divisible by 3 and 5,
i.e., divisible by L.C.M. of 3 and 5,
i.e., 15.
∴D = {15, 30, 45, 60, 75}
∴ n(D) = 5

It has 52 complete weeks and two more days.
These two days can be {(Sun, Mon), (Mon, Tue), (Tue, Wed), (Wed, Thur), (Thur, Fri), (Fri, Sat), (Sat, Sun)}.
∴ n(S) = 7
Let event E : There are 53 Sundays.

Question 12.
Find the probability of getting both red balls, when from a bag containing 5 red and 4 black balls, two balls are drawn,
(i) with replacement
(ii) without replacement
Solution:
The bag contains 5 red and 4 black balls,
i.e., 5 + 4 = 9 balls.
(i) 2 balls can be drawn from 9 balls with replacement in \({ }^{9} \mathrm{C}_{1} \times{ }^{9} \mathrm{C}_{1}\) ways.
∴ n(S) = \({ }^{9} \mathrm{C}_{1} \times{ }^{9} \mathrm{C}_{1}\) = 9 × 9 = 81
Let event A: Balls drawn are red.
2 red balls can be drawn from 5 red balls with replacement in \({ }^{5} \mathrm{C}_{1} \times{ }^{5} \mathrm{C}_{1}\) ways.
∴ n(A) = \({ }^{5} \mathrm{C}_{1} \times{ }^{5} \mathrm{C}_{1}\) = 5 × 5 = 25
∴ P(A) = \(\frac{n(A)}{n(S)}=\frac{25}{81}\)

(ii) 2 balls can be drawn from 9 balls without replacement in \({ }^{9} C_{1} \times{ }^{8} C_{1}\) ways.
∴ n(S) = \({ }^{9} C_{1} \times{ }^{8} C_{1}\) = 9 × 8 = 72
2 red balls can be drawn from 5 red balls without replacement in \({ }^{5} \mathrm{C}_{1} \times{ }^{4} \mathrm{C}_{1}\) ways.
∴ n(B) = \({ }^{5} \mathrm{C}_{1} \times{ }^{4} \mathrm{C}_{1}\) = 5 × 4 = 20
∴ P(B) = \(\frac{n(B)}{n(S)}=\frac{20}{72}=\frac{5}{18}\)

Question 13.
A room has three sockets for lamps. From a collection of 10 bulbs of which 6 are defective. At night a person selects 3 bulbs, at random and puts them in sockets. What is the probability that
(i) room is still dark.
(ii) the room is lit.
Solution:
Total number of bulbs = 10
Number of defective bulbs = 6
∴ Number of non-defective bulbs = 4
3 bulbs can be selected out of 10 bulbs in \({ }^{10} \mathrm{C}_{3}\) ways.
∴ n(S) = \({ }^{10} \mathrm{C}_{3}\)

(i) Let event A: The room is dark.
For event A to happen the bulbs should be selected from the 6 defective bulbs. This can be done in \({ }^{6} \mathrm{C}_{3}\) ways.
∴ n(A) = \({ }^{6} \mathrm{C}_{3}\)
∴ P(A) = \(\frac{n(A)}{n(S)}=\frac{{ }^{6} C_{3}}{{ }^{10} C_{3}}=\frac{6 \times 5 \times 4}{10 \times 9 \times 8}=\frac{1}{6}\)

(ii) Let event A’: The room is lit.
∴ P(Room is lit) = 1 – P(Room is not lit)
∴ P(A’) = 1 – P(A) = 1 – \(\frac{1}{6}\) = \(\frac{5}{6}\)

Question 14.
Letters of the word MOTHER are arranged at random. Find the probability that in the arrangement
(a) vowels are always together.
(b) vowels are never together.
(c) O is at the beginning and end with T.
(d) starting with a vowel and ending with a consonant.
Solution:
There are 6 letters in the word MOTHER.
These letters can be arranged among themselves in \({ }^{6} \mathrm{P}_{6}\) = 6! ways.
∴ n(S) = 6!
(a) Let event A: Vowels are always together.
The word MOTHER consists of 2 vowels (O, E) and 4 consonants (M, T, H, R).
2 vowels can be arranged among themselves in \({ }^{2} \mathbf{P}_{2}\) = 2! ways.
Let us consider 2 vowels as one group.
This one group with 4 consonants can be arranged in \({ }^{5} \mathrm{P}_{5}\) = 5! ways.
∴ n(A) = 2! × 5!
∴ P(A) = \(\frac{n(A)}{n(S)}=\frac{2 ! \times 5 !}{6 !}=\frac{1}{3}\)

(b) Let event B: Vowels are never together.
4 consonants create 5 gaps, in which vowels are arranged.
Consider the following arrangement of consonants
_C_C_C_C_
2 vowels can be arranged in 5 gaps in \({ }^{5} \mathbf{P}_{2}\) ways.
Also 4 consonants can be arranged among themselves in \({ }^{4} \mathbf{P}_{4}\) = 4! ways.
∴ n(B) = 4! × \({ }^{5} \mathbf{P}_{2}\)
∴ P(B) = \(\frac{n(B)}{n(S)}=\frac{4 ! \times{ }^{5} P_{2}}{6 !}=\frac{4 ! \times 5 \times 4}{6 \times 5 \times 4 !}=\frac{2}{3}\)

(iii) Let event C: Word begin with O and end with T.
Thus first and last letters can be arranged in one way each and the remaining 4 letters can be arranged in \({ }^{4} \mathrm{P}_{4}\) = 4! ways
∴ n(C) = 4! × 1 × 1 = 4!
∴ P(C) = \(\frac{n(C)}{n(S)}=\frac{4 !}{6 !}=\frac{1}{30}\)

(d) Let event D: Word starts with a vowel and ends with a consonant.
There are 2 vowels and 4 consonants in the word MOTHER.
∴ The first place can be arranged in 2 different ways and the last place can be arranged in 4 different ways.
Now, the remaining 4 letters (3 consonants and 1 vowel) can be arranged in \({ }^{4} \mathrm{P}_{4}\) = 4! ways.
∴ n(D) = 2 × 4 × 4!
∴ P(D) = \(\frac{n(D)}{n(S)}=\frac{2 \times 4 \times 4 !}{6 !}=\frac{4}{15}\)

Question 15.
4 letters are to be posted in 4 post boxes. If any number of letters can be posted in any of the 4 post boxes, what is the probability that each box contains only one letter?
Solution:
There are 4 letters and 4 post boxes.
Since any number of letters can be posted in all 4 post boxes,
so each letter can be posted in different ways.
∴ n(S) = 4 × 4 × 4 × 4
Let event A: Each box contains only one letter.
∴ 1st letter can be posted in 4 different ways.
Since each box contains only one letter, 2nd letter can be posted in 3 different ways.
Similarly, 3rd and 4th letters can be posted in 2 different ways and 1 way respectively.
∴ n(A) = 4 × 3 × 2 × 1
∴ P(A) = \(\frac{n(A)}{n(S)}=\frac{4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}{4 \times 4 \times 4 \times 4}=\frac{3}{32}\)

Question 16.
15 professors have been invited for a round table conference by the Vice-chancellor of a university. What is the probability that two particular professors occupy the seats on either side of the Vice-chancellor during the conference?
Solution:
Since a Vice-chancellor invited 15 professors for a round table conference, there were all 16 persons in the conference.
These 16 persons can be arranged among themselves around a round table in (16 – 1)! = 15! ways.
∴ n(S) = 15!
Let event A: Two particular professors be seated on either side of the Vice-chancellor.
Those two particular persons sit on either side of a Vice chancellor in \({ }^{2} \mathrm{P}_{2}\) = 2! ways.
Thus the remaining 13 persons can be arranged in \({ }^{13} \mathrm{P}_{13}\) = 13! ways.
∴ n(A) = 13! 2!
∴ P(A) = \(\frac{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{A})}{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{S})}=\frac{13 ! \times 2 !}{15 !}=\frac{13 ! \times 2 \times 1}{15 \times 14 \times 13 !}=\frac{1}{105}\)

Question 17.
A bag contains 7 black and 4 red balls. If 3 balls are drawn at random, find the probability that
(i) all are black.
(ii) one is black and two are red.
Solution:
The bag contains 7 black and 4 red balls,
i.e., 7 + 4 = 11 balls.
∴ 3 balls can be drawn out of 11 balls in \({ }^{11} \mathrm{C}_{3}\) ways.
∴ n(S) = \({ }^{11} \mathrm{C}_{3}\)
(i) Let event A: All 3 balls drawn are black.
There are 7 black balls.
∴ 3 black balls can be drawn from 7 black balls in \({ }^{7} \mathrm{C}_{3}\) ways.
∴ n(A) = \({ }^{7} \mathrm{C}_{3}\)
∴ P(A) = \(\frac{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{A})}{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{S})}=\frac{{ }^{7} \mathrm{C}_{3}}{{ }^{11} \mathrm{C}_{3}}=\frac{7 \times 6 \times 5}{11 \times 10 \times 9}=\frac{7}{33}\)

(ii) Let event B: Out of 3 balls drawn, one is black and two are red.
There are 7 black and 4 red balls.
∴ One black ball can be drawn from 7 black balls in \({ }^{7} \mathrm{C}_{1}\) ways and 2 red balls can be drawn from 4 red balls in \({ }^{4} \mathrm{C}_{2}\) ways.
∴ n(A) = \({ }^{7} \mathrm{C}_{1} \times{ }^{4} \mathrm{C}_{2}\)
∴ P(A) = \(\frac{n(A)}{n(S)}=\frac{{ }^{7} C_{1} \times{ }^{4} C_{2}}{{ }^{11} C_{3}}=\frac{7 \times \frac{4 \times 3}{2}}{\frac{11 \times 10 \times 9}{3 \times 2 \times 1}}=\frac{14}{55}\)

a² – 4a + a – 4 = 0
a(a – 4) + 1(a – 4) = 0
(a – 4) (a + 1) = 0
a – 4 = 0 or a + 1 = 0
a = 4 or a = -1
Since a = -1 is not possible,

Subtracting (iv) from (v), we get
32A = 3
A = \(\frac{3}{32}\)
Substituting A = \(\frac{3}{32}\) in (iv), we get
4(\(\frac{3}{32}\)) + 4B = 1
\(\frac{3}{8}\) + 4B = 1
4B = 1 – \(\frac{3}{8}\)
4B = \(\frac{5}{8}\)

(m – 5)(m + 1) = 0
m = 5 or m = -1
These are the slopes of the required tangents.
By slope point form y – y₁ = m(x – x₁),
the equations of the tangents are

y = mx ± \(\sqrt{a^{2} m^{2}+b^{2}}\)
y = mx ± \(\sqrt{5 m^{2}+3}\)
y – mx =±\(\sqrt{5 m^{2}+3}\)
Squaring both the sides, we get
y² – 2mxy + m²x² = 5m² + 3
(x² – 5) m² – 2xym + (y² – 3) = 0
The roots m₁ and m₂ of this quadratic equation are the slopes of the tangents.
m₁m₂ = \(\frac{y^{2}-3}{x^{2}-5}\)
Since the tangents are at right angles,
m₁m₂ = -1
\(\frac{y^{2}-3}{x^{2}-5}=-1\)

Comparing this equation with \(\frac{x^{2}}{a^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{b^{2}}=1\), we get
a² = 5 and b² = 4
Since inclinations of tangents are θ₁ and θ₂,
m₁ = tan θ₁ and m₂ = tan θ₂
Equation of tangents to the ellipse \(\frac{x^{2}}{a^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{b^{2}}=1\) having slope m are
y = mx ± \(\sqrt{a^{2} m^{2}+b^{2}}\)
y = mx ± \(\sqrt{5 \mathrm{~m}^{2}+4}\)
y – mx = ± \(\sqrt{5 \mathrm{~m}^{2}+4}\)
Squaring both the sides, we get
y² – 2mxy + m²x² = 5m² + 4
(x² – 5)m² – 2xym + (y² – 4) = 0
The roots m₁ and m₂ of this quadratic equation are the slopes of the tangents.
m₁ + m₂ = \(\frac{-(-2 x y)}{x^{2}-5}=\frac{2 x y}{x^{2}-5}\)
Given, tan θ₁ + tan θ₂ = 2
m₁ + m₂ = 2
\(\frac{2 x y}{x^{2}-5}\) = 2
xy = x² – 5
x² – xy – 5 = 0, which is the required equation of the locus of P.

\(\frac{x^{2}}{4}+\frac{y^{2}}{3}=1\)
Comparing with \(\frac{x^{2}}{a^{2}}+\frac{y^{2}}{b^{2}}=1\), we get
a² = 4, b² = 3

Answer:

(II) Answer the following:

Question 1.
Find the centre and radius of the circle x² + y² – x + 2y – 3 = 0.
Solution:
Given equation of the circle is x² + y² – x + 2y – 3 = 0
Comparing this equation with x² + y² + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0, we get
2g = -1, 2f = 2 and c = -3
g = \(\frac{-1}{2}\), f = 1 and c = -3
Centre of the circle = (-g, -f) = (\(\frac{1}{2}\), -1)
and radius of the circle

Question 2.
Find the centre and radius of the circle x = 3 – 4 sin θ, y = 2 – 4 cos θ.
Solution:
Given, x = 3 – 4 sin θ, y = 2 – 4 cos θ
⇒ x – 3 = -4 sin θ, y – 2 = -4 cos θ
On squaring and adding, we get
⇒ (x – 3)² + (y – 2)² = (-4 sin θ)² + (-4 cos θ)²
⇒ (x – 3)² + (y – 2)² = 16 sin² θ + 16 cos² θ
⇒ (x – 3)² + (y – 2)² = 16(sin² θ + cos² θ)
⇒ (x – 3)² + (y – 2)² = 16(1)
⇒ (x – 3)² + (y – 2)² = 16
⇒ (x – 3)² + (y – 2)² = 4²
Comparing this equation with (x – h)² + (y – k)² = r², we get
h = 3, k = 2, r = 4
∴ Centre of the circle is (3, 2) and radius is 4.

Question 3.
Find the equation of circle passing through the point of intersection of the lines x + 3y = 0 and 2x – 7y = 0 and whose centre is the point of intersection of lines x + y + 1 = 0 and x – 2y + 4 = 0.
Solution:
Required circle passes through the point of intersection of the lines x + 3y = 0 and 2x – 7y = 0.
x + 3y = 0
⇒ x = -3y ……..(i)
2x – 7y = 0 ……(ii)
Substituting x = -3y in (ii), we get
⇒ 2(-3y) – 7y = 0
⇒ -6y – 7y = 0
⇒ -13y = 0
⇒ y = 0
Substituting y = 0 in (i), we get
x = -3(0) = 0
Point of intersection is O(0, 0).
This point O(0, 0) lies on the circle.
Let C(h, k) be the centre of the required circle.
Since, point of intersection of lines x + y = -1 and x – 2y = -4 is the centre of circle.
∴ x = h, y = k
∴ Equations of lines become
h + k = -1 ……(iii)
h – 2k = -4 …..(iv)
By (iii) – (iv), we get
3k = 3
⇒ k = 1
Substituting k = 1 in (iii), we get
h + 1 = -1
⇒ h = -2
∴ Centre of the circle is C(-2, 1) and it passes through point O(0, 0).
Radius(r) = OC
= \(\sqrt{(0+2)^{2}+(0-1)^{2}}\)
= \(\sqrt{4+1}\)
= √5
The equation of a circle with centre at (h, k) and radius r is given by
(x – h)² + (y – k)² = r²
Here, h = -2, k = 1
the required equation of the circle is
(x + 2)² + (y – 1)² = (√5)²
⇒ x² + 4x + 4 + y² – 2y + 1 = 5
⇒ x² + y² + 4x – 2y = 0

Question 4.
Find the equation of the circle which passes through the origin and cuts off chords of lengths 4 and 6 on the positive side of the X-axis and Y-axis respectively.
Solution:

Let the circle cut the chord of length 4 on X-axis at point A and the chord of length 6 on the Y-axis at point B.
∴ the co-ordinates of point A are (4, 0) and co-ordinates of point B are (0, 6).
Since ∠BOA is a right angle.
AB represents the diameter of the circle.
The equation of a circle having (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) as endpoints of diameter is given by
(x – x₁) (x – x₂) + (y – y₁) (y – y₂) = 0
Here, x₁ = 4, y₁ = 0, x₂ = 0, y₂ = 6
∴ the required equation of the circle is
⇒ (x – 4) (x – 0) + (y – 0) (y – 6) = 0
⇒ x² – 4x + y² – 6y = 0
⇒ x² + y² – 4x – 6y = 0

Question 5.
Show that the points (9, 1), (7, 9), (-2, 12) and (6, 10) are concyclic.
Solution:
Let the equation of circle passing through the points (9, 1), (7, 9), (-2, 12) be
x² + y² + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0 …….(i)
For point (9, 1),
Substituting x = 9 andy = 1 in (i), we get
81 + 1 + 18g + 2f + c = 0
⇒ 18g + 2f + c = -82 …..(ii)
For point (7, 9),
Substituting x = 7 andy = 9 in (i), we get
49 + 81 + 14g + 18f + c = 0
⇒ 14g + 18f + c = -130 ……(iii)
For point (-2, 12),
Substituting x = -2 and y = 12 in (i), we get
4 + 144 – 4g + 24f + c = 0
⇒ -4g + 24f + c = -148 …..(iv)
By (ii) – (iii), we get
4g – 16f = 48
⇒ g – 4f = 12 …..(v)
By (iii) – (iv), we get
18g – 6f = 18
⇒ 3g – f = 3 ……(vi)
By 3 × (v) – (vi), we get
-11f = 33
⇒ f = -3
Substituting f = -3 in (vi), we get
3g – (-3) = 3
⇒ 3g + 3 = 3
⇒ g = 0
Substituting g = 0 and f = -3 in (ii), we get
18(0) + 2(-3) + c = – 82
⇒ -6 + c = -82
⇒ c = -76
Equation of the circle becomes
x² + y² + 2(0)x + 2(-3)y + (-76) = 0
⇒ x² + y² – 6y – 76 = 0 ……(vii)
Now for the point (6, 10),
Substituting x = 6 and y = 10 in L.H.S. of (vii), we get
L.H.S = 6² + 10² – 6(10) – 76
= 36 + 100 – 60 – 76
= 0
= R.H.S.
∴ Point (6,10) satisfies equation (vii).
∴ the given points are concyciic.

Question 6.
The line 2x – y + 6 = 0 meets the circle x² + y² + 10x + 9 = 0 at A and B. Find the equation of circle with AB as diameter. Solution:
2x – y + 6 = 0
⇒ y = 2x + 6
Substituting y = 2x + 6 in x² + y² + 10x + 9 = 0, we get
⇒ x² + (2x + 6)² + 10x + 9 = 0
⇒ x² + 4x² + 24x + 36 + 10x + 9 = 0
⇒ 5x² + 34x + 45 = 0
⇒ 5x² + 25x + 9x + 45 = 0
⇒ (5x + 9) (x + 5) = 0
⇒ 5x = -9 or x = -5
⇒ x = \(\frac{-9}{5}\) or x = -5
When x = \(\frac{-9}{5}\),
y = 2 × \(\frac{-9}{5}\) + 6
= \(\frac{-18}{5}\) + 6
= \(\frac{-18+30}{5}\)
= \(\frac{12}{5}\)
∴ Point of intersection is A\(\left(\frac{-9}{5}, \frac{12}{5}\right)\)
When x = -5,
y = -10 + 6 = -4
∴ Point of intersection in B (-5, -4).
By diameter form, equation of circle with AB as diameter is
(x + \(\frac{9}{5}\)) (x + 5) + (y – \(\frac{12}{5}\)) (y + 4) = 0
⇒ (5x + 9) (x + 5) + (5y – 12) (y + 4) = 0
⇒ 5x² + 25x + 9x + 45 + 5y² + 20y – 12y – 48 = 0
⇒ 5x² + 5y² + 34x + 8y – 3 = 0

Question 7.
Show that x = -1 is a tangent to circle x² + y² – 4x – 2y – 4 = 0 at (-1, 1).
Solution:
Given equation of circle is x² + y² – 4x – 2y – 4 = 0.
Comparing this equation with x² + y² + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0, we get
2g = -4, 2f = -2, c = -4
⇒ g = -2, f = -1, c = -4
The equation of a tangent to the circle
x² + y² + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0 at (x₁, y₁) is xx₁ + yy₁ + g(x + x₁) + f(y + y₁) + c = 0
the equation of the tangent at (-1, 1) is
⇒ x(-1) + y(1) – 2(x – 1) – 1(y + 1) – 4 = 0
⇒ -3x – 3 = 0
⇒ -x – 1 = 0
⇒ x = -1
∴ x = -1 is the tangent to the given circle at (-1, 1).

Question 8.
Find the equation of tangent to the circle x² + y² = 64 at the point P(\(\frac{2 \pi}{3}\)).
Solution:
Given equation of circle is x² + y² = 64
Comparing this equation with x² + y² = r², we get r = 8
The equation of a tangent to the circle x² + y² = r² at P(θ) is x cos θ + y sin θ = r
∴ the equation of the tangent at P(\(\frac{2 \pi}{3}\)) is
⇒ x cos \(\frac{2 \pi}{3}\) + y sin \(\frac{2 \pi}{3}\) = 9
⇒ \(x\left(\frac{-1}{2}\right)+y\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right)=8\)
⇒ -x + √3y = 16
⇒ x – √3y + 16 = 0

Question 9.
Find the equation of locus of the point of intersection of perpendicular tangents drawn to the circle x = 5 cos θ and y = 5 sin θ.
Solution:
The locus of the point of intersection of perpendicular tangents is the director circle of the given circle.
x = 5 cos θ and y = 5 sin θ
⇒ x² + y² = 25 cos² θ + 25 sin² θ
⇒ x² + y² = 25 (cos² θ + sin² θ)
⇒ x² + y² = 25(1) = 25
The equation of the director circle of the circle x² + y² = a² is x² + y² = 2a².
Here, a = 5
∴ the required equation is
x² + y² = 2(5)² = 2(25)
∴ x² + y² = 50

Question 10.
Find the equation of the circle concentric with x² + y² – 4x + 6y = 1 and having radius 4 units.
Solution:
Given equation of circle is
x² + y² – 4x + 6y = 1 i.e., x² + y² – 4x + 6y – 1 = 0
Comparing this equation with x² + y² + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0, we get
2g = -4, 2f = 6
⇒ g = -2, f = 3
Centre of the circle = (-g, -f) = (2, -3)
Given circle is concentric with the required circle.
∴ They have same centre.
∴ Centre of the required circle = (2, -3)
The equation of a circle with centre at (h, k) and radius r is (x – h)² + (y – k)² = r²
Here, h = 2, k = -3 and r = 4
∴ the required equation of the circle is
(x – 2)² + [y – (-3)]² = 4²
⇒ (x – 2)² + (y + 3)² = 16
⇒ x² – 4x + 4 + y² + 6y + 9 – 16 = 0
⇒ x² + y² – 4x + 6y – 3 = 0

Question 11.
Find the lengths of the intercepts made on the co-ordinate axes, by the circles.
(i) x² + y² – 8x + y – 20 = 0
(ii) x² + y² – 5x + 13y – 14 = 0
Solution:
To find x-intercept made by the circle x² + y² + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0,
substitute y = 0 and get a quadratic equation in x, whose roots are, say, x₁ and x₂.

These values represent the abscissae of ends A and B of the x-intercept.
Length of x-intercept = |AB| = |x₂ – x₁|
Similarly, substituting x = 0, we get a quadratic equation in y whose roots, say, y₁ and y₂ are ordinates of the ends C and D of the y-intercept.
Length of y-intercept = |CD| = |y₂ – y₁|
(i) Given equation of the circle is
x² + y² – 8x + y – 20 = 0 ……(i)
Substituting y = 0 in (i), we get
x² – 8x – 20 = 0 ……(ii)
Let AB represent the x-intercept, where
A = (x₁, 0), B = (x₂, 0)
Then from (ii),
x₁ + x₂ = 8 and x₁x₂ = -20
(x₁ – x₂)² = (x₁ + x₂)² – 4x₁x₂
= (8)² – 4(-20)
= 64 + 80
= 144
∴ |x₁ – x₂| = \(\sqrt{\left(x_{1}-x_{2}\right)^{2}}\) = √144 = 12
∴ Length of x – intercept =12 units
Substituting x = 0 in (i), we get
y² + y – 20 = 0 …..(iii)
Let CD represent the y – intercept,
where C = (0, y₁) and D = (0, y₂)
Then from (iii),
y₁ + y₂ = -1 and y₁y₂ = -20
(y₁ – y₂)² = (y₁ + y₂)² – 4y₁y₂
= (-1)² – 4(-20)
= 1 + 80
= 81
∴ |y₁ – y₂| = \(\sqrt{\left(y_{1}-y_{2}\right)^{2}}\) = √81 = 9
∴ Length of y – intercept = 9 units.

Alternate Method:
Given equation of the circle is x² + y² – 8x + y – 20 = 0 ……(i)
x-intercept:
Substituting y = 0 in (i), we get
x² – 8x – 20 = 0
⇒ (x – 10)(x + 2) = 0
⇒ x = 10 or x = -2
length of x-intercept = |10 – (-2)| = 12 units
y-intercept:
Substituting x = 0 in (i), we get
y² + y – 20 = 0
⇒ (y + 5)(y – 4) = 0
⇒ y = -5 or y = 4
length of y-intercept = |-5 – 4| = 9 units

(ii) Given equation of the circle is
x² + y² – 5x + 13y – 14 = 0
Substituting y = 0 in (i), we get
x² – 5x – 14 = 0 ……(ii)
Let AB represent the x-intercept, where
A = (x₁, 0), B = (x₂, 0)
Then from (ii),
x₁ + x₂ = 5 and x₁x₂ = -14
(x₁ – x₂)² = (x₁ + x₂)² – 4x₁x₂
= (5)² – 4(-14)
= 25 + 56
= 81
∴ |x₁ – x₂| = \(\sqrt{\left(x_{1}-x_{2}\right)^{2}}\) = √81 = 9
∴ Length of x-intercept = 9 units
Substituting x = 0 in (i), we get
y² + 13y – 14 = 0 ……(iii)
Let CD represent they-intercept,
where C = (0, y₁), D = (0, y₂).
Then from (iii),
y₁ + y₂ = -13 and y₁y₂ = -14
(y₁ – y₂)² = (y₁ + y₂)² – 4y₁y₂
= (-13)² – 4(-14)
= 169 + 56
= 225
∴ |y₁ – y₂| = \(\sqrt{\left(y_{1}-y_{2}\right)^{2}}\) = √225 = 15
∴ Length ofy-intercept = 15 units

= 7
By distance formula,
C₁C₂ = \(\sqrt{(-4-2)^{2}+[3-(-5)]^{2}}\)
= \(\sqrt{36+64}\)
= √1oo
= 10

∴ the given circles touch each other externally.

Let P(x, y) be the point of contact.
∴ P divides C₁C₂ internally in the ratio r₁ : r₂ i.e. 3 : 7.
∴ By internal division,

Equation of common tangent is
(x² + y² – 4x + 10y + 20) – (x² + y² + 8x – 6y – 24) = 0
⇒ -4x + 10y + 20 – 8x + 6y + 24 = 0

Radius of the second circle is
r₂ = \(\sqrt{(-1)^{2}+4^{2}+23}\)
= \(\sqrt{1+16+23}\)
= √40
= 2√10
By distance formula,
C₁C₂ = \(\sqrt{(-1-2)^{2}+(-4-5)^{2}}\)
= \(\sqrt{9+81}\)
= √90
= 3√10
r₁ + r₂ = √10 + 2√10 = 3√10
Since, C₁C₂ = r₁ + r₂
the given circles touch each other externally.
r₁ : r₂ = √10 : 2√10 = 1 : 2
Let P(x, y) be the point of contact.

∴ P divides C₁ C₂ internally in the ratio r₁ : r₂ i.e. 1 : 2
∴ By internal division,

Point of contact = (1, 2)
Equation of common tangent is
(x² + y² – 4x – 10y + 19) – (x² + y² + 2x + 8y – 23) = 0
⇒ -4x – 10y + 19 – 2x – 8y + 23 = 0
⇒ -6x – 18y + 42 = 0
⇒ x + 3y – 7 = 0

Since, C₁C₂ = |r₁ – r₂|
∴ the given circles touch each other internally.
Equation of common tangent is
(x² + y² – 4x – 4y – 28) – (x² + y² – 4x – 12) = 0
⇒ -4x – 4y – 28 + 4x + 12 = 0
⇒ -4y – 16 = 0
⇒ y + 4 = 0
⇒ y = -4
Substituting y = -4 in x² + y² – 4x – 12 = 0, we get

⇒ x² + 16 – 4x – 12 = 0
⇒ x² – 4x + 4 = 0 .
⇒ (x – 2)² = 0

Question 15.
Find the value of k, if the length of the tangent segment from the point (8, -3) to the circle x² + y² – 2x + ky – 23 = 0 is √10.
Solution:
Given equation of the circle is x² + y² – 2x + ky – 23 = 0
Here, g = -1, f = \(\frac{\mathrm{k}}{2}\), c = -23
Length of the tangent segment to the circle x² + y² + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0 from the point (x₁, y₁) is \(\sqrt{x_{1}^{2}+y_{1}^{2}+2 g x_{1}+2 f y_{1}+c}\)
Length of the tangent segment from (8, -3) = √10
⇒ \(\sqrt{8^{2}+(-3)^{2}-2(8)+k(-3)-23}=\sqrt{10}\)
⇒ 64 + 9 – 16 – 3k – 23 = 10 …..[Squaring both the sides]

The equation of a tangent to the circle x² + y² + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0 at (x₁, y₁) is
xx₁ + yy₁ + g(x + x₁) + f(y + y₁) + c = 0
the equation of the tangent at (6, 4) is
x(6) + y(4) – 3(x + 6) – 2(y + 4) + 0 = 0
⇒ 6x + 4y – 3x – 18 – 2y – 8 = 0
⇒ 3x + 2y – 26 = 0

Alternate method:
Given equation of the circle is x² + y² – 6x – 4y = 0
x(x – 6) + y(y – 4) = 0, which is in diameter form where (0, 0) and (6, 4) are endpoints of diameter.

Slope of OP = \(\frac{4-0}{6-0}=\frac{2}{3}\)
Since, OP is perpendicular to the required tangent.
Slope of the required tangent = \(\frac{-3}{2}\)
the equation of the tangent at (6, 4) is
y – 4 = \(\frac{-3}{2}\) (x – 6)
⇒ 2(y – 4) = 3(x – 6)
⇒ 2y – 8 = -3x + 18
⇒ 3x + 2y – 26 = 0

Here, r = 5, θ = \(\frac{\pi}{3}\)
the equation of the tangent at P(\(\frac{\pi}{3}\)) is
x cos \(\frac{\pi}{3}\) + y sin \(\frac{\pi}{3}\) = 5
⇒ \(x\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)+y\left(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right)=5\)
⇒ x + √3y = 10

Given equation of line is 2x + y + 6 = 0
y = -6 – 2x ……(ii)
Substituting y = -6 – 2x in (i), we get
x + (-6 – 2x)² + 2x – 2(-6 – 2x) – 3 = 0
⇒ x² + 36 + 24x + 4x² + 2x + 12 + 4x – 3 = 0
⇒ 5x² + 30x + 45 = 0
⇒ x² + 6x + 9 = 0
⇒ (x + 3)² = 0
⇒ x = -3
Since, the roots are equal.
∴ 2x + y + 6 = 0 is a tangent to x² + y² + 2x – 2y – 3 = 0
Substituting x = -3 in (ii), we get
y = -6 – 2(-3) = -6 + 6 = 0

Equation of the tangent at (3, -4) is
x(3) + y(-4) = 25
⇒ 3x – 4y – 25 = 0 ……(i)
Given equation of circle is x² + y² + 8x – 4y + c = 0
Comparing this equation with x² + y² + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0, we get
2g = 8, 2f = -4
⇒ g = 4, f = -2
∴ C = (-4, 2) and r = \(\sqrt{4^{2}+(-2)^{2}-c}=\sqrt{20-c}\)
Since line (i) is a tangent to this circle also, the perpendicular distance from C(-4, 2) to line (i) is equal to radius r.

Here, m = -2, a² = 16
the required equations of the tangents are
y = \(-2 x \pm \sqrt{16\left[1+(-2)^{2}\right]}\)
⇒ y = \(-2 x \pm \sqrt{16(5)}\)
⇒ y = -2x ± 4√5

Given equation of circle is x² + y² – 2x + 8y – 23 = 0
Comparing this equation with x² + y² + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0, we get
2g = -2, 2f = 8, c = -23
g = -1, f = 4, c = -23
The centre of the circle is C(1, -4)
and its radius = \(\sqrt{1+16+23}\)
= √40
= 2√10
Since line (i) is a tangent to this circle the perpendicular distance from C(1, -4) to line (i) is equal to radius r.
\(\left|\frac{3(1)+4+c}{\sqrt{9+1}}\right|\) = 2√10
⇒ \(\left|\frac{7+c}{\sqrt{10}}\right|\) = 2√10
⇒ (7 + c) = ± 20
⇒ 7 + c = 20 or 7 + c = -20
⇒ c = 13 or c = – 27

∴ Equations of the tangents are
y = mx ± \(\sqrt{9\left(\mathrm{~m}^{2}+1\right)}\)
⇒ y = mx ± 3\(\sqrt{1+m^{2}}\)
Since, these tangents pass through (x₁, y₁).
y₁ = mx₁ ± 3\(\sqrt{1+m^{2}}\)
⇒ y₁ – mx₁ = ± 3\(\sqrt{1+m^{2}}\)
⇒ (y₁ – mx₁)² = 9(1 + m²) ……[Squaring both the sides]
⇒ \(y_{1}^{2}-2 m x_{1} y_{1}+m^{2} x_{1}^{2}=9+9 m^{2}\)
⇒ \(\left(x_{1}^{2}-9\right) \mathrm{m}^{2}-2 \mathrm{~m} x_{1} y_{1}+\left(y_{1}^{2}-9\right)=0\)
This is a quadratic equation which has two roots m₁ and m₂.
