Q1. The lines y = mx , y + 2x = 0 , y = 2x + λ and y = - mx + λ form a rhombus if m =
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

Rhombus is a parallelogram in which the opposite sides are equaland parallel.

Therefore the lines y = mx and y = -2x are parallel, similarly y = 2x+  and y = -mx +  are parallel.

If two lines are equal, then their slopes are qual

This implies  m = -2


Q2. Which of the following is not a proposition ?

Q3. is equal to
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:



Q4. Which of the following is a vector?
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

Acceleration is a vector quantity , because acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity w.r.t. time.and velocity specifies direction

Q5. If P (A) = 0.8, P (B) = 0.5 and P(B|A) = 0.4, find P(A ∩ B)
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

We have ,
P (A) = 0.8, P (B) = 0.5 and P(B|A) = 0.4


Q6. If x then sin 2 θ is equal to
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

 .

Q7. Let f(x) = | x−1|, then
Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

here f(x)=|x−1| x∈R. So f(x) is not derivable when x−1=0 i.e. at x=1

Q8. Three normals to the parabola  are drawn through a point (c, 0) then
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:

The equation of the normal to a parabola y2 = 4ax is

y = mx -2am - am3

Hence the equation of the normal to the given parabola y2 = x is 

mx - 

Since it passes throught (c,0)

mc - = 0

on solving we  get 

m = 0 or m2 = 4(c-1/2)

If m = 0 then the equation of the normal is y = 0

If m2 0, then  4(c-1/2) 0

Hence c-1/2 0 or c > 1/2


Q9.

If is divisible by 9 for all n  N , then the least positive integral value of k is :


Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:

When n = 1 we have 58. Given that the expression is divisible by 9 . Hence the least value of k will be 5,so that the value becomes 63 which is divisible by 9.
