Question 13.
Two dice are thrown at once. What is the probability of getting face upwards with ‘sum equal to 4 or 5″.
Answer:
n(S) = 36
Let A: Sum equal to 4 = {(1,3) (3, 1) (2,2)}
P(A) = \(\frac{3}{36}=\frac{1}{13}\) and B ; Sum equal to 5 = {(1,4) (4, 1) (2, 3) (3, 2)} jo 13
∵ A ∩ B = 0
P(B) = \(\frac{4}{36}\), and P(A ∩ B) = 0
P(Sum 4 or 5) = P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B) = \(\frac{3}{36}+\frac{4}{36}=\frac{7}{36}\)

Question 14.
If the truth values of propositions p, q, r are T, T, F respectively. Then find the truth values of the compound propositions (p ∨ r)∧ q .
Answer:
Truth value of (p ∨ r) ∧ q
(T ∨ F) ∧ T ⇒ T ∨ T = T ⇒ (P ∨ r) ∧ r is true.

Question 15.
Monthly income of A and B are in the ratio 2 : 3 and their monthly expenditure are in the ratio 3 : 5. If each saves X 100 per month. Find the monthly incomes of A and B.
Answer:
Let their incomes be 2x and 3.x
W.K.T Income – Saving = Expenditure
∴ \(\frac{2 x-100}{3 x-100}=\frac{3}{5}\) ⇒ 5(2x – 100) = 3(3x – 100) ⇒ 10x – 500 = 9x – 300 ⇒ x = 200
∴ Incomes of A and B are 2 × 200 and 3 × 200 = 400 and 600

Question 16.
A bill drawn for 3 month was legally due on 06.07.2018. Find the date of drawing of the bill.
Answer:
L.D.D = D . D + B.P + 3 days
D.D = LDD – B.P -3 days
= (06 – 07 – 2018) – (0.3 – 0) – (3 – 0.0)
= 3 – 4 – 2018

Question 19.
Find the equation of parabola given that vertex is origin (0, 0) and passing through the point P (5, 2) and symmetric with respect to the y – axis.
Answer:
Given it is symmetric about y – axis. So it’s equation is x2 = 4ay or x2 = -4ay, ∵ the parabola passes there the point (5,2) and it is in 1st quadrant ∴ the parabola is x2 = 4ay and 52 = 4.2.a ⇒ 25 = 8a ⇒ a = \(\frac{25}{8}\)
∴ its equation is given by x2 = 4 \(\frac{25}{8}\) . y ⇒ x2 = \(\frac{25 y}{2}\) or 2x2 = 25y

Question 29.
Two taps can separately fill a tank in 12 min and 15 minutes respectively. The tank when full can be emptied by a drain pipe is 20minutes. When the tank was empty, all the three were opened simultaneously. In what time will the tank be filled up?
Answer:
Time taken to fill the tank is 12 and 15 minutes and time taken to drawn the tank is 20 minutes. In one minute the two taps will fill \(\frac{1}{12}, \frac{1}{15}\) of the tank and drain \(\frac{1}{20}\) of the tank.
∴ The required time will be \(\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{15}-\frac{1}{20}\)
\(=\frac{20+16-12}{240}\)
\(=\frac{24}{290}=\frac{1}{10}\)
∴ Hence in one minute \(\frac{1}{10}\) of the tank will be full the tank will be filled in minutes.

Rakshith decides to invest in TCS shares which are selling at ₹ 2,020 per share. How much money is required to purchase 10 shares, if the brokerage in 0.5%.
Answer:
Selling price of 10 shares at 2020 per share = 20,200 ₹
Brokerage = \(\frac{0.5}{100}\) × 20,200 = ₹101
Amount required to purchase = 20,200 + 101 = 20,301 Rs.

Question 32.
The price of a washing machine inclusive of sales tax is ₹ 13,530. If the sales tax is 10%. Find the basic price.
Answer:
Suppose the basic price of the washing machine = ₹x
∴ Total amount paid = MP + ST% of MP
13530 = x + 10% of x 13530 = x + \(\frac{x}{10}=\frac{10 x+x}{10}=\frac{11 x}{10}\)
∴ x = \(\frac{13530 \times 10}{11}\) = 12,300
∴ Basic price = ₹12,300.

Question 33.
Find the length of chord of the circle x2 + y2 – 6x – 4y – 12 = 0 on the coordinate axes.
Answer:
Given x2 + y2 – 6x – 4y- 12 = 0
centre = (3, 2) and C = -12
Length of chord intercepted by x – axis = \(2 \sqrt{g^{2}-c}\)
= \(2 \sqrt{3^{2}-(-12)}=2 \sqrt{9+12}=2 \sqrt{21}\) units
Length of chord intercepted byy – axis = \(2 \sqrt{f^{2}-c}=2 \sqrt{4-(-12)}=2 \sqrt{4+12}\) = 8units

In any ∆ABC, prove that sin2A + sin2B – sin2C = 4 cos A cos B sin C
Answer:
LHS = sin2A + sin2B – sin2C
= 2sin (A + B). cos (A – B) – 2sin cos C [using trans formation formula]
= 2 sin C cos (A – B) – 2 sin C. cos C
= 2 sin C [cos (A – B) – cos C]
= 2 sin C [cos (A – B) + cos (A + B)] ∴ cos (A + B) = – cos C
= 2 sin C. 2 cos A cos B
= 4 cos A . sin C. cos B [∵ cos C + cos D = 2 cos \(\frac{C+D}{2}\) cos \(\frac{C-D}{2}\)]
= 4 cos A. cos B. Sin A
= RHS
∴ sin 2A + sin 2B – sin 2C = 4 cos A . cos B . sin C.

Question 46.
Find the equation of the circle passing through the point (0, 2) (3, 0) and (3, 2).
Answer:
Let the required equation of the circle is x2 + y2 + 2yz + 2fy + C = 0
This equation passes through (0,2) (3,0) and (3,2)
(0,2) 02 + 22 + 2g (0) + 2f(2) + C = 0 ⇒ 4f + 4 + C = 0 (1)
(3,0) 32 + 02 + 2g (3) + 2f(0) + C = 0 ⇒ 6g + 9 + C = 0 (2)
(3,2) 32 + 22 + 2g (3) + 2f(2) + C = 0
6g + 4f + 13 + C = 0 (3)
Eqn2 – Eqn1 gives 6g – 4f + 5 = 0 (4)
Eqn3 – Eqn2 gives 4f + 4 = 0 (5)
⇒ f = -1
put f = -1 in Eqn 4, we get 6g + 4 + 5 = 0
6g = -9 ⇒ g = \(\frac{-3}{2}\)
4f + 4 + C = 0
-4 + 4 + C = 0 ⇒ C = 0
∴ the required equation of the circle is x2 + y2 + 2 \(\left(\frac{-3}{2}\right)\) x + 2(-1)y + 0 = 0
x2 + y2 – 3x – 2y = 0
