JEE Advance - Mathematics (1999)
- 7The probabilities that a student passes in Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry are $$m, p$$ and $$c,$$ respectively. Of these subjects, the student has a $$75%$$ chance of passing in at least one, a $$50$$% chance of passing in at least two, and a $$40$$% chance of passing in exactly two. Which of the following relations are true?RépondreCB
- 8Eight players $${P_1},{P_2},.....{P_8}$$ play a knock-out tournament. It is known that whenever the players $${P_i}$$ and $${P_j}$$ play, the player $${P_i}$$ will win if $$i < j.$$ Assuming that the players are paired at random in each round, what is the probability that the player $${P_4}$$ reaches the final?Répondre(D)4/35
- 12Let $$u$$ and $$v$$ be units vectors. If $$w$$ is a vector such that $$w + \left( {w \times u} \right) = v,$$ then prove that $$\left| {\left( {u \times v} \right) \cdot w} \right| \le 1/2$$ and that the equality holds if and only if $$u$$ is perpendicular to $$v .$$Répondre(D)The magnitude of the scalar triple product (u x v) . w is always less than or equal to 1/2 and equality holds if and only if u is perpendicular to v.
- 23Let a, b, c, d be real numbers in G.P. If u, v, w, satisfy the system of equations
u + 2v + 3w = 6
4u + 5v + 6w = 12
6u + 9v = 4then show that the roots of the equation $$\left( {{1 \over u} + {1 \over v} + {1 \over w}} \right){x^2}$$
$$ + [{(b - c)^2} + {(c - a)^2} + {(d - b)^2}]x + u + v + w = 0$$ and $$20{x^2} + 10{(a - d)^2}x - 9 = 0$$ are reciprocals of each other.Répondre(B)The roots of both equations are real, and one root of each equation is the reciprocal of a root of the other. - 29Let $${T_1}$$, $${T_2}$$ be two tangents drawn from (- 2, 0) onto the circle $$C:{x^2}\,\, + \,{y^2} = 1$$. Determine the circles touching C and having $${T_1}$$, $${T_2}$$ as their pair of tangents. Further, find the equations of all possible common tangents to these circles, when taken two at a time.RépondreABCD
- 35Consider the family of circles $${x^2} + {y^2} = {r^2},\,\,2 < r < 5$$. If in the first quadrant, the common taingent to a circle of this family and the ellipse $$4{x^2} + 25{y^2} = 100$$ meets the co-ordinate axes at $$A$$ and $$B$$, then find the equation of the locus of vthe mid-point of $$AB$$.Répondre(B)25/x^2 + 4/y^2 = 4
- 36Let $$ABC$$ be a triangle having $$O$$ and $$I$$ as its circumcenter and in centre respectively. If $$R$$ and $$r$$ are the circumradius and the inradius, respectively, then prove that $${\left( {IO} \right)^2} = {R^2} - 2{\mathop{\rm Rr}\nolimits} $$. Further show that the triangle BIO is a right-angled triangle if and only if $$b$$ is arithmetic mean of $$a$$ and $$c$$.Répondre(B)The distance between the incenter and circumcenter squared is equal to the circumradius squared minus twice the product of the circumradius and inradius.
