iii. one card is king and two are jacks.

a. A ∪ B = {2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}
A∩B = {4, 5}
b. iv) (2, 4]

a. A = {0, 1,2,3}
b. A x B = {(0, 5),(0, 6),(1, 5),(1, 6),(2, 5), (2, 6),(3, 5),(3, 6)}
c. No. of possible relations from A to B
= 2mn = 24 x 2 = 256

∴ n = 10

a. A ∪ B = {2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8}
(A ∩ B)’ = {1, 9}………….(1)
A’= {1, 3, 5, 7, 9}, B’={1, 4, 6, 8, 9} A’∩B’= {1, 9}…………….(2)
From (1) and (2), we have (A + B)’ = A’ ∩ B’
b. n (A – B) = n (A) = 4

a. Let the required line l is perpendicular bisector of the line joining A(0,0) and B (-3, 4).

Since l is perpendicular bisector of AB, it passes through the midpoint of AB.

a. Since the line joining A and Bis divided by the YZ plane, x = 0

∴ the points divides the YZ plane in the ratio 1 : 2 externally.
b. R divides AB in the ratio 1:2 externally,

Since m:n = – z1 : z2 = -10 : -8 = 5:4
XY plane divides the line segment internally.

a. If n2 is not even, then the integer n is not even.
b. Let us assu,e that √7 is a rational number.
√7 =a/b, where a and b are co-prime, i.e., a and b have no common factors. Squaring we have,
7b2 = a2 ⇒ 7 divides a.
∴ Let a = lk
∴a2= 49k2  ⇒ 7b2= 49k2 ⇒ b= 7k⇒7  divides b.
i.e., 7 divides both a and b, which is contradition to our assumption that a and b have no common factor. our supposition is wrong.
∴ √7 is an irrational number.

a. sin 75 = sin (45 + 30) = sin 45 cos 30 + cos 45 sin 30

=1.05 units
The radius of the circle is not given
properly. Type mismatching happened,
c. OA = OB = 2 units.

a. Number of words = $$\frac { 5! }{ 2!2! }$$
= 30
b. If A is fixed, the remaining 4 letters can 4!
be permuted in $$\frac { 4! }{ 2! }$$ = 12 ways.
If G is fixed, the ramaining 4 letters
can be permuted in $$\frac { 4! }{ 2! }$$ = 12 ways.
∴ the 25th word is NAAGG.
∴ the 26th word is NAGAG
c. No. of selections
= 4C7C4C7C4 = 4 x 21 + 1 x 7 = 84 + 7 = 91

a. (± c ,0) = (±√2 , 0) ; (± a, 0) = (± 4, 0)
c= a– b2 ⇒ b2 = a2– c= 16 – 12 = 4
Equation of the ellipse is $$\frac { { x }^{ 2 } }{ 16 } +\frac { { y }^{ 2 } }{ 4 }$$ = 1
b.. (x – 0)2+(y – k)2= r2 ⇒ x+ y– 2ky + k– r= 0
c. The co-ordinates of the points are :
A(-4,0), B(4,0) and C(0, -2).
Equation of the circle is
x+ y+ 2gx + 2fy + c = 0 ………….. (1)
(1) passes through A(-4, 0)
: 16 + 0 – 8g + c = 0 …………… (2)
(1) passes through B (4, 0)
: 16 + 0 + 8g + c = 0…………. (3)
passes through C (0, -2)
: 4 + 0-4f + c = 0 ……………… (4)
(2) + (3) ⇒ 32+2c=0
⇒ 2c = -32
⇒ c = -16 when c= -16
⇒ 16 + 0-8g – 16 = 0
⇒- 8g=0 ⇒ g=0
when c=-16 ⇒ 4 + 0-4f – 16 = 0
⇒- 4f = 12 ⇒ f = -3
Equation of the circle is
x+ y+ 2 (0) x + 2(-3) y+ – 16 = 0
⇒ x2 + y2-6y – 16 = 0
