PART-3 : MATHEMATICS

51) S1 = a1 = –2, S2 = a1 + a2 = 1 ⇒ a2 = 3 and d = 5.

52) (3sin x + 4cos x) + 3sin y = 8

this is only possible when 3sin x + 4cos x = 5 and sin y = 1
therefore cos 2y = –1 and sin 2x = 24/25

53) (x–3)2 = 4(y+1)/ Any point on it is (2t+3, t2–1) and y'=(1/2)(x–3) =t. So any normal is
y–(t2–1)=(–1/t)(x–(2t+3)). Let the three normals be drawn from (h, k). So we get
t3+(1–k)t+(3–h) =0 ⇒ t1 + t2 + t3 = 0. Given 2t1 + 3 = 7 and 2t2 + 3 = –1 ⇒ t3 = 0 ⇒ The third
foot is (3, –1).

54) . c2 = a2m2 – b2 gives 49 = 16a2 – 9b2. This gives

. So . Now check options.

55) Given

Difference of roots ⇒

same for both equation, so

Least value of f(x) & g(x) =

D=1
Least value of g(x) will be at

b2 – 7

1 = 49 – 4c2
c2 = 12
g(x) ⇒ x2 –7x + 12 = 0
roots = 3, 4
option A, B, C are correct

56) Let circle be (x–1)2 + y2 = r2. Using ellipse x2 + 4y2 =16, eliminate y2 to get quadratic in x.
From symmetry of figures, this quadratic should have equal roots. So solve for r.
Alternatively, let point at which circle touches ellipse be P(4cosθ, 2sinθ). So normal to ellipse
at this point must pass through centre C(1, 0) of circle. So slope of normal at P equals slope of
line joining P and C. So θ can be found.
Note: Here first method is better. In second method we used common normal instead of
common tangent (the usual method), since circle was involved.

57)

Let C(4b – 20, b)

or 4.
Now, use F1F2 = 2ae, and |PF1–PF2| = 2a to calculate e in both cases.

58) Let ellipse be x2/a2 + y2/b2 = 1. P(acosθ, bsinθ). So A is (acosθ, 0) and B(0, bsinθ). Let Q(x1,

y1). So . Now eliminate θ to obtain locus.

59) (A) lies between

∴ λ = 10, μ = –4

(B)
λ = 4, μ = –2
(C)
λ = 6, μ = 9
(D) 7cos2θ + 6sinθcosθ – sin2θ ∈ [–2, 8]
 λ = 8, μ = –2

60)

.
So e = distance from point : distance from line .

61)
so α + β = b
also x2 – bx + c = (x – α) (x – β)

γ+δ=q
x2 – qx + r = 0 (x – γ) (x – δ)
Now
α+β+γ+δ=b+q=S
so

(S – 2α) (S – 2β) = 6
Similarly
(S – 2γ) (S – 2δ) = 10
so
(S – 2α)(S – 2β)(S – 2γ)(S – 2δ) = 60

62) From figure directrix is x – y = –6 and focus (1, –1). So equation of parabola must be

. Now square both sides and simplify.

63) (x + a) (x + 1991) + 1 = 0
(x + a) (x + 1991) = –1
= 1 × (–1) or (–1) × (1)
case (i)
x + 1991 = –1 and x + a = 1
x = –1992
so
–1992 + a = 1
a = 1993
case (ii)
x + 1991 = 1 and x + a = –1
x = –1990
so, –1990 + a = –1
a = 1989
So x = –1992 & –1990
so (x + a) (x + 1991) + 1 = (x + 1992) (x + 1990)
Possible value of b & c - 1992, 1990

Tangent to parabola is . Where .

Its distance from centre equals radius since and centre (0, 0)

∵ eq. (1) becomes

So both statements are correct. Statement 2 additionally contains other values of m and gives
no information about c, so it is not correct reason.

66) Given :- x2–2px+q = 0

for equal roots, D = 0
⇒ b2–4ac = (–2p)2–4(1) (q) = 0
⇒ 4p2–4q = 0
⇒ p2 = q ...... (1)
Now, equation (1+y)x2–2(p+y)x +(q+y) = 0
∵ check D
⇒ (2(p+y))2 –4(1+y) (q+y) = y(8p–4–4q)
D = –4y(p–1)2

.
.
.
i = 49, x49 + x50 = k
⇒ x1 + x2 = x2 + x3 = ... =x49 + x50 = k
⇒ we know x1 = x3 = x5 = x7 ... = x49 and x2 = x4 = x6 = ... x50
then x20 + x37 = a + b

⇒ n = 2 ⇒ a2 – a1 = 4
n = 3 ⇒ a3 – a 2 = 6
.
.
.
n = n ⇒ an – an–1 = 2n
Now, a1 = 2, then a2 = 6, a3 = 12, a4 = 20, a5 = 30, ...
∵ sequence will be :- {2, 6, 12, 20, 30, ...}
Now , let Sn = 2+6+12+20+30+...+ n2 + n

Putting n = 20, then we get 3080

⇒ 2a2 b3c4 = ab2 c3 + a3b4c5
⇒ (abc–1)2 = 0 ⇒ abc = 1
Now, using AM ≥ GM on a, b, c
⇒ a+b+c ≥ 3 ⇒ minimum value of a+b+c = 3

70) x3 + 3ax2+ 3bx + c = 0 .....(1)

x2 + 2ax+b=0 .... (2)
∵ subtracting eq. (2) by multiplying 'x' from eq. (1)
ax2 + 2bx + c = 0 ..... (3)
∵ Now multiplying 'a' to eq. (2) on both sides :-
ax2 + 2a2x + ab = 0 ..... (4)
Subtract eq. (4) from eq. (3) then

..... (5)
and [eq. (3)] × a – [eq. (2)] × b = 0

then .... (6)

Putting 'x' values into (6).
(ab–c)2 = 4 (a2–b)(b2–ac) which is required conditions
