Question
CBSEENMA12036196

The number of values of x in the interval [0, 3π] satisfying the equation 2sin2 x + 5sinx − 3 = 0 is

  • 4

  • 6

  • 1

  • 2

Solution

A.

4

2 sin2 x + 5 sin x − 3 = 0
⇒ (sin x + 3) (2 sin x − 1) = 0
⇒ sin x = 1 2
∴ In (0, 3π), x has 4 values

Question
CBSEENMA12036198

If A and B are square matrices of size n × n such that A2 − B2 = (A − B) (A + B), then which of the following will be always true?

  • A = B

  • AB = BA

  • either of A or B is a zero matrix

  • either of A or B is an identity matrix

Solution

B.

AB = BA

A2 − B2 = (A − B) (A + B)
A2 − B2 = A2 + AB − BA − B2
⇒ AB = BA
