Given below are two statements:
Statement I: If the roots of the quadratic equation
$x^2 - 4x - \log_3 a = 0$ are real, then the least value of $a$ is $\dfrac{1}{81}$.
Statement II: The harmonic mean of the roots of the equation
$(5+\sqrt{2})x^2 - (4+\sqrt{5})x + (8+2\sqrt{5}) = 0$ is $2$.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Both Statement I and Statement II are false 3
Statement I is true but Statement II is false 4
Statement I is false but Statement II is true Go to Discussion
CUET Previous Year PYQ
CUET CUET 2023 PYQ
Solution For Statement I:
For real roots, discriminant $\ge 0$
$(-4)^2 - 4(1)(-\log_3 a) \ge 0$
$16 + 4\log_3 a \ge 0$
$\log_3 a \ge -4$
$a \ge 3^{-4} = \dfrac{1}{81}$
So Statement I is true.
For Statement II:
Harmonic mean of roots $= \dfrac{2\alpha\beta}{\alpha+\beta}$
Here,
$\alpha+\beta = \dfrac{4+\sqrt{5}}{5+\sqrt{2}}$
$\alpha\beta = \dfrac{8+2\sqrt{5}}{5+\sqrt{2}}$
So,
HM $= \dfrac{2(8+2\sqrt{5})}{4+\sqrt{5}} = 4 \ne 2$
So Statement II is false.

Solution:
Given two unit vectors \( \vec{a} \) and \( \vec{b} \), and the vectors \( \vec{a} + 2\vec{b} \) and \( 5\vec{a} - 4\vec{b} \) are perpendicular, we use the condition for perpendicular vectors:
$$ (\vec{a} + 2\vec{b}) \cdot (5\vec{a} - 4\vec{b}) = 0 $$
Expanding the dot product:
$$ (\vec{a} + 2\vec{b}) \cdot (5\vec{a} - 4\vec{b}) = \vec{a} \cdot 5\vec{a} + \vec{a} \cdot (-4\vec{b}) + 2\vec{b} \cdot 5\vec{a} + 2\vec{b} \cdot (-4\vec{b}) $$
Using properties of dot products and knowing \( \vec{a} \) and \( \vec{b} \) are unit vectors (\( \vec{a} \cdot \vec{a} = 1 \) and \( \vec{b} \cdot \vec{b} = 1 \)):
$$ 5(\vec{a} \cdot \vec{a}) - 4(\vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}) + 10(\vec{b} \cdot \vec{a}) - 8(\vec{b} \cdot \vec{b}) = 0 $$
Simplifying:
$$ 5(1) - 4(\vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}) + 10(\vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}) - 8(1) = 0 $$
$$ 5 - 8 + 6(\vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}) = 0 $$
$$ -3 + 6(\vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}) = 0 $$
$$ 6(\vec{a} \cdot \vec{b}) = 3 $$
$$ \vec{a} \cdot \vec{b} = \frac{1}{2} $$
The dot product \( \vec{a} \cdot \vec{b} = \cos \theta \), where \( \theta \) is the angle between \( \vec{a} \) and \( \vec{b} \):
$$ \cos \theta = \frac{1}{2} $$
Therefore, the angle \( \theta \) is:
$$ \theta = \cos^{-1} \left( \frac{1}{2} \right) = 60^\circ $$
Final Answer:
$$ \boxed{60^\circ} $$

Solution
Solution:
Given vectors:
\(\vec{a} = \hat{i} - \hat{j}\)
\(\vec{b} = \hat{i} + \hat{j} + \hat{k}\)
And \((\vec{a} \times \vec{c}) + \vec{b} = 0\)
\(\vec{a} \cdot \vec{c} = 4\)
From \((\vec{a} \times \vec{c}) + \vec{b} = 0\), we get:
\[
\vec{a} \times \vec{c} = -\vec{b}
\]
Let \(\vec{c} = x\hat{i} + y\hat{j} + z\hat{k}\).
The cross product \(\vec{a} \times \vec{c}\) is:
\[
\vec{a} \times \vec{c} = \begin{vmatrix} \hat{i} & \hat{j} & \hat{k} \\ 1 & -1 & 0 \\ x & y & z \end{vmatrix}
\]
Expanding this determinant:
\[
\vec{a} \times \vec{c} = (z \hat{i} + z \hat{j} + (x + y) \hat{k})
\]
Setting \(\vec{a} \times \vec{c} = -\vec{b}\), we get:
\[
z = -1, \quad z = -1, \quad x + y = -1
\]
Therefore:
\[
x + y = -1
\]
Now, from \(\vec{a} \cdot \vec{c} = 4\):
\[
\vec{a} \cdot \vec{c} = 1 \cdot x + (-1) \cdot y = 4
\]
Simplifying:
\[
x - y = 4
\]
Solving the system of equations:
\[
x + y = -1
\]
\[
x - y = 4
\]
Adding the two equations:
\[
2x = 3 \quad \Rightarrow \quad x = \frac{3}{2}
\]
Substituting into \(x + y = -1\):
\[
\frac{3}{2} + y = -1 \quad \Rightarrow \quad y = -\frac{5}{2}
\]
Now, \(\vec{c} = \frac{3}{2} \hat{i} - \frac{5}{2} \hat{j} - \hat{k}\).
To find \(|\vec{c}|^2\), we compute:
\[
|\vec{c}|^2 = \left( \frac{3}{2} \right)^2 + \left( -\frac{5}{2} \right)^2 + (-1)^2 = \frac{9}{4} + \frac{25}{4} + 1
\]
\[
|\vec{c}|^2 = \frac{9 + 25 + 4}{4} = \frac{38}{4} = 9.5
\]
Final Answer:
$$ \boxed{9.5} $$

Solution $f(x)=\tan^2 x$ is not defined at $x=\pi/2$, hence it is not continuous there.
So Assertion A is false.
$g(x)=x^2$ is a polynomial, hence continuous everywhere, including at $x=\pi/2$.
So Reason R is true.

Solution Let the centre of circle $S$ be $(h,k)$ and radius $r$.
Orthogonality condition with circle $x^2+y^2=1$:
$h^2 + k^2 = r^2 + 1$
Orthogonality with $(x-1)^2+y^2=16$:
$(h-1)^2 + k^2 = r^2 + 16$
Subtracting:
$(h-1)^2 - h^2 = 15$
$h^2 - 2h +1 - h^2 = 15$
$-2h = 14 \Rightarrow h = -7$
Since circle passes through $(0,1)$:
$r^2 = (0+7)^2 + (1-k)^2$
Using $h^2+k^2=r^2+1$:
$49 + k^2 = r^2 + 1$
Solving gives $k=1$.

Solution For $x<0$, $|x|=-x$ so $f(x)=\dfrac{x}{-x}=-1$ (constant) ⇒ continuous.
For $x>0$, $f(x)=-1$ ⇒ continuous.
At $x=0$:
$\displaystyle \lim_{x\to0^-} f(x)=-1,\quad \lim_{x\to0^+} f(x)=-1,\quad f(0)=-1$
Hence $f$ is continuous at $x=0$.
Therefore, $f$ is continuous for all real $x$.

Solution Given
$\displaystyle \sum_{m=1}^{6} \csc!\left(\theta+\dfrac{(m-1)\pi}{4}\right),
\csc!\left(\theta+\dfrac{m\pi}{4}\right)=4\sqrt{2}$
Use the identity
$\csc x \csc y=\dfrac{\cot x-\cot y}{\sin(y-x)}$
Here,
$y-x=\dfrac{\pi}{4}$ and $\sin\dfrac{\pi}{4}=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$
So each term becomes
$\sqrt{2},[\cot(\theta+\dfrac{(m-1)\pi}{4})-\cot(\theta+\dfrac{m\pi}{4})]$
Hence the sum is telescopic:
$\sqrt{2},[\cot\theta-\cot(\theta+\dfrac{6\pi}{4})]=4\sqrt{2}$
$\Rightarrow \cot\theta-\cot(\theta+\dfrac{3\pi}{2})=4$
Using
$\cot(\theta+\dfrac{3\pi}{2})=\tan\theta$
$\Rightarrow \cot\theta-\tan\theta=4$
$\Rightarrow \dfrac{\cos2\theta}{\sin\theta\cos\theta}=4$
$\Rightarrow \cot2\theta=2$
$\Rightarrow 2\theta=\tan^{-1}!\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)$
$\Rightarrow \theta=\dfrac{\pi}{12},\ \dfrac{5\pi}{12}$

Since \(|\sin(1/x)| \leq 1\),

Since every outcome of \(A\) (two heads ⇒ one tail) is included in \(B\), we have:

\( y = \dfrac{x^2 + x + 2}{x^2 + x + 1} = 1 + \dfrac{1}{x^2 + x + 1} \)
Since denominator is always positive, \( y > 1 \).
Minimum denominator = \(\tfrac{3}{4}\) at \(x = -\tfrac{1}{2}\).
So maximum \( y = 1 + \tfrac{1}{3/4} = \tfrac{7}{3} \).
Thus, Range = \((1, \tfrac{7}{3}] \).
→ Matches with (I).
Step 3: For (C)
\( y = \sin x - \cos x = \sqrt{2}\sin\!\left(x - \tfrac{\pi}{4}\right) \)
Hence, Range = \([-\sqrt{2}, \sqrt{2}] \).
→ Matches with (IV).
Step 4: For (D)
\( y = \cot^{-1}(-x) - \tan^{-1}(x) + \sec^{-1}(x) \)
Simplifying with inverse trig identities gives Range:
\(\left[\tfrac{\pi}{2}, \pi\right) \cup \left(\pi, \tfrac{3\pi}{2}\right]\).
→ Matches with (II).

Equation:
$$x^2 + y^2 + 6x - 4y + 4 = 0$$
Step 1: Group terms.
$$(x^2 + 6x) + (y^2 - 4y) + 4 = 0$$
Step 2: Complete the square.
- For $x^2 + 6x$: add and subtract $(\tfrac{6}{2})^2 = 9$
- For $y^2 - 4y$: add and subtract $(\tfrac{-4}{2})^2 = 4$
$$(x^2 + 6x + 9) + (y^2 - 4y + 4) + 4 - 9 - 4 = 0$$
$$\Rightarrow (x+3)^2 + (y-2)^2 - 9 = 0$$

Let the common ratio be \(r\).
\[
x_1 = a, \; x_2 = ar, \; x_3 = ar^2
\]
\[
y_1 = b, \; y_2 = br, \; y_3 = br^2
\]
So the points are \((a,b), \; (ar,br), \; (ar^2,br^2)\).
Slopes:
Between first two points:
\[
m_{12} = \frac{br - b}{ar - a} = \frac{b(r-1)}{a(r-1)} = \frac{b}{a}
\]
Between second and third points:
\[
m_{23} = \frac{br^2 - br}{ar^2 - ar} = \frac{br(r-1)}{ar(r-1)} = \frac{b}{a}
\]
Since \(m_{12} = m_{23}\), the points are collinear.
Final Answer: The points \((x_1,y_1), (x_2,y_2), (x_3,y_3)\) are collinear .

Solution
Given parametric equations:
$$x = e^t \cos t,\quad y = e^t \sin t$$
To find the angle of the tangent at \( t = \frac{\pi}{4} \), compute the slope:
$$\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{\frac{dy}{dt}}{\frac{dx}{dt}} = \frac{e^t(\sin t + \cos t)}{e^t(\cos t - \sin t)} = \frac{\sin t + \cos t}{\cos t - \sin t}$$
At \( t = \frac{\pi}{4} \),
$$\sin\left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right) = \cos\left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$$
So,
$$\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} + \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}}{\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} - \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}} = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{0}$$
The slope is undefined, which means the tangent is vertical .

• B = ball drawn from Bag B
• R = ball drawn is Red
Since a bag is chosen at random:
$$P(A) = P(B) = \tfrac{1}{2}$$
Step 2: Probability of Red from each bag.
• From Bag A:
$$P(R|A) = \tfrac{3}{3+4} = \tfrac{3}{7}$$
• From Bag B:
$$P(R|B) = \tfrac{5}{5+6} = \tfrac{5}{11}$$
Step 3: Total probability of Red.
$$P(R) = P(A)P(R|A) + P(B)P(R|B)$$
$$= \tfrac{1}{2}\cdot\tfrac{3}{7} + \tfrac{1}{2}\cdot\tfrac{5}{11}$$

$$= \tfrac{33}{154} + \tfrac{35}{154} = \tfrac{68}{154} = \tfrac{34}{77}$$
Step 4: Apply Bayes’ Theorem.
$$P(B|R) = \frac{P(B)P(R|B)}{P(R)}$$
$$= \frac{\tfrac{1}{2}\cdot\tfrac{5}{11}}{\tfrac{34}{77}}$$

Go to Discussion
CUET Previous Year PYQ
CUET CUET 2024 PYQ
Solution
The function is
\( f(x) = [x]^n , \quad n \geq 2 \)
where \([x]\) is the greatest integer function (GIF).
The GIF \([x]\) is discontinuous at all integers. Raising it to the integer power \(n \geq 2\) does not remove this discontinuity, because the jump still exists at each integer value of \(x\).
For non-integer \(x\), the function is constant over intervals \((m, m+1)\) where \(m \in \mathbb{Z}\), so it is continuous within each open interval between integers.
Final Answer: The function is discontinuous at all integers .

Case 2: Persons are identical by nationality
If 4 Indians, 3 Americans, and 2 Britishers are considered identical within their groups, then
Arrangements =
\[
\frac{(n-1)!}{4!\,3!\,2!}

Circular arrangement of 7 units = \( (7 - 1)! = 6! \)
