2. A conjugate of a complex number is another complex number that has the same
real part as the original complex number, and the imaginary part has the same
magnitude but opposite sign. If we multiply a complex number with its conjugate,
we get a real number.

digit can repeat?
(ii) How many AC code are possible if both digit in AC code are different and
must be greater than 6?

digits can repeat?
(iv) How many mobile numbers are possible with AC code 98 and PC code 123
and digit used in AC and PC code will not be used in SC code?
6. Pascal’s triangle defines the coefficients which appear in binomial expansions.
That means the nth row of Pascal’s triangle comprises the coefficients of the
expanded expression of the polynomial (𝑥 + 𝑦)𝑛 .
Based on the above data answer any four of the following questions.
(i) Find the number of terms in the expansion of (x + y)6
(ii) Find the number of terms in the expansion of (x + y)10 − (x − y)10
(iii)Find the number of terms in (x + y)10 + (x − y)10
7. A sequence of non-zero numbers is said to be a geometric progression, if the
ratio of each term, except the first one, by its preceding term is always constant.
Rahul, being a plant lover, decides to open a nursery and he bought few plants
and pots. He wants to place pots in such a way that the number of pots in the
first row is 2, in second row is 4 and in the third row is 8 and so on…..
Page 4|8
(i) Find the constant multiple by which the number of pots is increasing in
every row
(ii) Find the number of pots in 8th row.
(iii) Find the difference in number of pots placed in 7th row and 5th row
(iv) If Rahul wants to place 510 pots in total, then find the total number of
rows formed in this arrangement
8. One triangular shaped pond is there in a park. Three friends Rani, Mansi,
Sneha are sitting at the corners of the triangular park. They are studying in
Class XI in an International. Rani marked her position as (2, –2), Mansi marked
as (1, 1) and Sneha marked her position as (–1, 0) as shown in figure given
below.
Based on the above information answer the following questions.
(i) Find the equation of lines formed by Rani and Mansi.
(ii) Find the Slope of equation of line formed by Rani and Sneha.
(iii) Find the equation of median of lines through Rani.
(iv) Find the equation of altitude through Mansi.
9. A beam is supported at its ends by supports which are 12 m apart. Since the load
is concentrated at its centre, there is a deflection of 3 cm at the centre and
Page 5|8
defected beam is in the shape of parabola. Now considering the centre of beam is
at origin as shown in figure. Answer the following:
(i) Write the form of the equation of parabola.
(ii) Find the focus of parabola.
(iii) Find the length of latus rectum of parabola.
(iv) How far from the centre is the deflection 1 cm?
10. Raj and his father were walking in a large park. They saw a kite flying in the sky.

12. A teacher wants to analyze the performance of 50 students in a Mathematics
test to identify patterns and trends in their marks distribution. The teacher
collects the marks of all 50 students, organizes them into class intervals such
as 0-10, 10-20, 20-30, and so on, and counts the number of students whose
marks fall within each interval. Using this data, the teacher creates a histogram

13. Two students, Anil and Vijay, appeared in a highly competitive examination.
Anil has been preparing part-time while managing a job, which has left him
with limited preparation time. On the other hand, Vijay, though dedicated, has
struggled with certain key concepts. Based on their preparation and past
performance, the probability that Anil will qualify the examination is estimated
to be 0.05, and the probability that Vijay will qualify is estimated at 0.10.
Additionally, the probability that both students will qualify together, due to their
independent preparation and individual strengths, is calculated as 0.02.
(i) Find the probability that at least one of them will qualify the exam.
(ii) Find the probability that at least one of them will not qualify the exam.
(iii) Find the probability that both Anil and Vijay will not qualify the exam.
(iv) Find the probability that only one of them will qualify the exam.
