(B) ƒ(x) = {x} + {–x} discontinous at x = 0
(C) Function is non differentiable at x = 0
(D) Rolles theorem is applicable

52)
ƒ(2) + 3 ≤ 10
ƒ(2) ≤ 7

53)

54)

Two curves intersect orthogonally if

..... (i)
Now eliminating y from the given equations we have

..... (ii)
2
Eliminating x from (i) and (ii) we get
55)
ƒ(–1) = k + 1
k+1<4
⇒k<3

56)

57) x + y = xy
put y = 0
x+0=1
∴ x=1
point is (1, 0)
Now
x + y – xy = 0

∴ mN = 1
Eq of normal is
y – 0 = 1(x – 1)
y=x–1

58)
Perimeter = 2(2α + 2 cos 2α)
P = 4(α + cos 2α)

= 4(1 – 2 sin 2α) = 0

sin2α =

= –4 cos2α

for maximum α =
Area = (2α) (2 cos 2α)

Ans. (C)

59) Let x + y = c
y = (c – x)
x2 + x(c – x) + (c – x)2 – 1 = 0
x2 + cx – x2 + c2 + x2 – 2cx – 1 = 0
⇒ x2 – cx + (c2 – 1) = 0 ⇒ D>0

cmax =

60) h'(x) = {(ƒ (x))2 + 2ƒ (x) + 1} ƒ '(x)

h'(x) = (ƒ (x) + 1)2 . ƒ '(x)
If ƒ '(x) ≥ 0 ⇒ h'(x) ≥ 0
Hence if ƒ(x) increases, h(x) also increases.

61) Let ƒ(x) 2x3 – 3x2 + p

ƒ'(x) = bx(x – 1)
ƒ(0).ƒ(1) < 0 (Not necessarily distinct)
p ∈ [0, 1]

62) Given = 16

(4πr2) = 16

4π 2r = 16

.... (1)

Now

= = 4πr2 = 8r

63) D1 = a2 + 12b, D2 = c2 – 4b, D3 = d2 – 8b

⇒ D1 + D2 + D3 ≥ 0
64)

Assume a function h(x) = f(x) – 2g(x)

h(0) = h(1) = 0
Using Rolle’s theorem option B is true

65)

Consider two curves:

Minimum distance occurs along common normal

⇒ Normal at P must pass through (0, 0)

66)
solve t

67) = at cost and = at sint

68) Put
Hence

69) f '(x) = 2x(x – 2)2 + 2x2(x – 2) = 2x(x – 2)(2x – 2) = 4x(x – 1)(x – 2)

∴ f(x) is increasing in (0, 1)∪(2, ∞)

70)

71)

∴
through compare

∴ ∴ Ans.

72)
⇒ λ = 100, m = 100

73) ∵ f(x) is st. increasing in (0, ∞)

∴ f(x1) < f(x2) ⇒ 0 < x1 < x2
∴ f(3a2 – 4a + 1) < f(2a2 + a + 1)
⇒ 0 < 3a2 – 4a + 1 < 2a2 + a + 1
3a2 – 4a + 1 > 0 a2 – 5a < 0
(3a – 1) (a – 1) > 0 ⇒ a(a – 5) < 0
∴ a ∈ (0, 1/3) ∪ (1, 5)

74) Let h(x) = f(x) g'(x) → 5 roots

∵ f (x) is even ⇒

g(x) is even ⇒
g'(x) = 0 has minimum one root
h'(x) has at last 4 roots

75) f(x) = |x| + |(x + 1) (x – 1)|

∴ f has 5 points where it attains either a local maximum or local minimum.
