PART- II

II. Answer any seven questions. Question No. 30 is compulsory.

Question 21.
Find x such that -π ≤ x ≤ π and cos 2x = sin x
Solution:
We have cos 2x = sin x which gives
2sin² x + sin x – 1 = 0
The roots of the equation are sin x = \(\frac{-1±3}{4}\) = -1 (or) \(\frac{1}{2}\)
Now, sin x = \(\frac{1}{2}\) ⇒ x = \(\frac{π}{6}\), \(\frac{5π}{6}\)
Also sin x = -1 ⇒ x = \(\frac{π}{2}\)
Thus x = \(\frac{π}{2}\), \(\frac{π}{6}\), \(\frac{5π}{6}\)

\(\vec{a}\) ⊥r \(\vec{b}\) ⇒ \(\vec{a}\).\(\vec{b}\) = 0
(2) (1) + (λ) (-2) + (1) (3) = 0 ⇒ λ = 5/2

Question 29.
If A and B are two independent events such that
P(A) = 0.4 and P(A ∪ B) = 0.9. Find P(B).
Solution:
P(A ∪ B) = P(A) + P(B) – P(A ∩ B)
P(A ∪ B) = P(A) + P(B) – P(A).P(B)(since A and B are independent)
That is, 0.9 = 0.4 + P(B) – (0.4) P(B)
0.9 – 0.4 = (1 – 0.4) P(B)
Therefore, P(B) = \(\frac{5}{6}\)

Question 30.
A rope of length 12 m is given. Find the largest area of the triangle formed by this rope and find the dimensions of the triangle so formed.
Solution:
The largest triangle will be an equilateral triangle

Question 32.
Solve 2|x + 1| – 6 ≤ 7 and graph the solution set in a number line.
Solution:
2|x + 1| – 6 ≤ 7
⇒ 2|x + 1| ≤ 7 + 6 (= 13)
⇒ |x + 1| ≤ \(\frac{13}{2}\)
⇒ x + 1 > \(\frac{-13}{2}\)
x + 1 > \(\frac{-13}{2}\)
⇒ x > \(\frac{-13}{2}\) -1 (= \(\frac{-15}{2}\)) ……….(1)
(or) x + 1 > \(\frac{13}{2}\)
x + 1 < \(\frac{-13}{2}\)
⇒ x < \(\frac{13}{2}\) -1 (= \(\frac{11}{2}\)) ……….(2)
From (1) and (2) \(\frac{-15}{2}\) ≤ x ≤ \(\frac{11}{2}\)

Question 35.
Area of the triangle formed by a line with the coordinate axes, is 36 square units. Find the equation of the line if the perpendicular drawn from the origin to the line makes an angle of 45° with positive the x-axis.
Solution:
Let p be the length of the perpendicular drawn from the origin to the required line.
The perpendicular makes 45° with the x-axis.
The equation of the required line is of the form,
x cos α + y sin α = p
⇒ x cos 45° + y sin 45° = p
⇒ x + y= √2 P
This equation cuts the coordinate axes at A(√2p, 0) and B (o, √2p).
Area of the ΔOAB is \(\frac{1}{2}\) × √2p × √2p = 36 ⇒ p = 6 (∵ p is positive)
Therefore the equation of the required line is x + y = 6 √2

Question 36.
If AT = \(\left(\begin{array}{cc} 4 & 5 \\ -1 & 0 \\ 2 & 3 \end{array}\right)\) and B = \(\left(\begin{array}{ccc} 2 & -1 & 1 \\ 7 & 5 & -2 \end{array}\right)\) verify that (A – B)T = AT – BT
Solution:
(A – B)T = AT – BT

Solution:
Let = \(\vec{a}\) = a1\(\hat{i}\) + a2\(\hat{j}\) + a3\(\hat{k}\)
Tamil Nadu 11th Maths Model Question Paper 2 English Medium 12

Question 38.
Given y = cos-1 \(\left(\frac{1-x^{2}}{1+x^{2}}\right)\) find \(\frac{dx}{dy}\)
Solution:
put x = tan θ
so \(\left(\frac{1-x^{2}}{1+x^{2}}\right)\) = \(\left(\frac{1-tan^{2}θ}{1+tan{2}θ}\right)\) = 2 cos θ
y = cos-1 (cos 2θ) = 2θ
⇒ \(\frac{dy}{dθ}\)
Now x = tan θ
⇒ \(\frac{dx}{dθ}\) = sec²θ
= 1 + tan² θ
= 1 + x²
so \(\frac{dx}{dy}\) = \(\frac{dy}{dθ}\)/\(\frac{dx}{dθ}\) = \(\frac{2}{1+x²}\)

Question 39.
A wound is healing in such a way that t days since Sunday the area of the wound has been decreasing at a rate of –\(\frac{3}{(t+2)²}\) cm² per day. If on Monday the area of the wound was 2 cm²
(i) What was the area of the wound on Sunday?
(ii) What is the anticipated area of the wound on Thursday if it continues to heal at the same rate ?
Solution:
Let A be the area of wound at time ‘ t ‘
Tamil Nadu 11th Maths Model Question Paper 2 English Medium 13
By the given, condition area of the wound on monday is 2 cm²
⇒ A = 2, t = 1
⇒ 2 = \(\frac{3}{1+2}\) + c
c = 1
∴ Area of wound at any day.
⇒ 1 ⇒ A = \(\frac{3}{1+2}\) + 1
(i) The area of the wound on Sunday
t = 0 ⇒ A = \(\frac{3}{2}\) + 1 = \(\frac{5}{2}\) = 2.5 cm²
(ii) The area of the wound on Thursday
t = 4 ⇒ A = \(\frac{3}{6}\) + 1 = \(\frac{1}{2}\) + 1 = 1.5 cm²

Question 40.
An integer is chosen at random from the first fifty positive integers. What is probability that the integer chosen is a prime or multiple of 4?
Solution:
S = {1, 2, 3, ……. ,50} ∴ n(S) = 50
Let A be the event of getting prime number.
∴ A = {2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47}
n(A) = 15, so P(A) = 15/50
Let B be the event of getting number multiple of 4
∴B = {4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48}
n(B) = 12, so P(B) = 12/50
Here A and B are mutually exclusive. (i.e.,) A ∩ B = Φ
∴ P(A ∪ B) = P(A) + P(B) = 15/50+ 12/50 = 27/50

Solution:
Tamil Nadu 11th Maths Model Question Paper 2 English Medium 14

[OR]

(b) If f : R → R is defined by f(x) = 2x – 3 prove that f is a injection and find its inverse.
Solution:
Method 1:
One-to-one: Let f(x) = f(y). Then 2x – 3 = 2y – 3; this implies that x = y. That is, f(x) = f(y) implies that x = y. Thus f is one-to-one.

Onto: Let y ∈ R. Let x =\(\frac{y+3}{2}\) Then f(x) = 2(\(\frac{y+3}{2}\)) -3 = y. Thus f is onto. This also can be proved by saying the following statement. The range of f is R (how?) which is equal to the co-domain and hence f is onto.

Inverse: Inverse: Let y = 2x – 3. Then y + 3 = 2x and hence x = \(\frac{y+3}{2}\) Thus f-1 (y) = \(\frac{y+3}{2}\). By replacing y as x, we get f-1 (x) = \(\frac{y+3}{2}\)

Method 2:
Let y = 2x – 3 then x = \(\frac{y+3}{2}\). Let, g(y) = \(\frac{y+3}{2}\)
Now (g o f) (x) = g(f(x)) = g(2x – 3) = \(\frac{(2x-3)+3}{2}\) = x
(f o g)(y) = f(g(y)) = f(\(\frac{y+3}{2}\)) = 2(\(\frac{y+3}{2}\)) -3 = y
This implies that f and g are bijections and inverses to each other. Hence f is a bijection and f-1(y) = \(\frac{y+3}{2}\). Replacing y by x we get, f-1(x) = \(\frac{x+3}{2}\)

Question 42 (a).
If the equations x² – ax + b = 0 and x² – ex + f = 0 have one root in common and if the second equation has equal roots then prove that ae = 2(b + f).
Solution:
Let a be the common root
then a² – aα + b = 0 . . . .(1)
we are given that
x² – ex + f = 0 has equal roots.
So the roots will be α, β
Now sum of roots = 2α
= -(-e) ⇒ a = e/2
product of the roots
α × α = α²f
substituting a and α², values in (1) we get
f – a (\(\frac{e}{2}\)) + b = 0
f – \(\frac{ae}{2}\) + b = 0
\(\frac{ae}{2}\) = b + f ⇒ ae = 2(b + f)

Question 43 (a).
Find the number of strings that can be made using all letters of the word THING. If these words are written as in a dictionary, what will be the 85th string?
Solution:
(i) Number of words formed = 5! = 120
(ii) The given word is THING
Taking the letters in alphabetical order G H I N T
To find the 85th word
The No. of words starting with G = 4! = 24
The No. of words starting with H = 4! = 24
The No. of words starting with 1 = 4! = 24
The No. of words starting with NG = 3! = 6
The No. of words starting with NH = 3! = 6
The No. of words starting with NIGH = 1! = 1
Total = 85
So the 85th word is NIGHT

(b) A straight line passes through a fixed point (6, 8). Find the locus of the foot of the perpendicular drawn to it from the origin O.
Solution:
Let the point (x1, y1) be (6, 8). and P (h, k) be a point on thr lequired locus.
Family of equations of the straight lines passing through the fixed point (x1, y1) is y – y1 = m (x – x1) ⇒ y – 8 = m(x – 6)
Since OP is perpendicular to the line (6.25)
m × (\(\frac{k-0}{h-0}\)) = -1 ⇒ m = –\(\frac{h}{k}\)
Also P(h, k) lies on (6.25)
⇒ k – 8 = – \(\frac{h}{k}\)(h – 6) ⇒ k (k – 8) = -h(h – 6) ⇒ h² + k² – 6h – 8k = 0
Locus of P (h, k) is x² + y² – 6x – 8y = 0

∴ There is only one middle term i.e. (\(\frac{9+1}{2}\))th or 5th term
