CBSEENMA11015622

If the cube roots of unity are 1, ω, ω2 then the roots of the equation (x – 1)+ 8 = 0, are

  • -1 , - 1 + 2ω, - 1 - 2ω2

  • -1 , -1, - 1

  • -1 , 1 - 2ω, 1 - 2ω2

  • -1 , 1 + 2ω, 1 + 2ω2

Solution

C.

-1 , 1 - 2ω, 1 - 2ω2

(x – 1)3 + 8 = 0
⇒ (x – 1) = (-2) (1)1/3
⇒ x – 1 = -2 or -2ω or -2ω2 or
n = -1 or 1 – 2ω or 1 – 2ω2 .

Area of the greatest rectangle that can be inscribed in the ellipse straight x squared over straight a squared plus straight y squared over straight b squared space equals space 1

  • 2ab

  • ab

  • square root of ab
  • a/b

Solution

A.

2ab


Area of rectangle ABCD = (2acosθ)
(2bsinθ) = 2absin2θ
⇒ Area of greatest rectangle is equal to 2ab when sin2θ = 1.

Question
CBSEENMA11015625

If in a frequently distribution, the mean and median are 21 and 22 respectively, then its mode is approximately

  • 22.0

  • 20.5

  • 25.5

  • 24.0

Solution

D.

24.0

Mode + 2Mean = 3 Median
⇒ Mode = 3 × 22 – 2 × 21= 66 – 42= 24.

Question
CBSEENMA11015626

Let P be the point (1, 0) and Q a point on the locus y2 = 8x. The locus of mid point of PQ is

  • y2 – 4x + 2 = 0

  • y2 + 4x + 2 = 0

  • x2 + 4y + 2 =

  • x2 – 4y + 2 = 0

Solution

A.

y2 – 4x + 2 = 0

P = (1, 0) Q = (h, k) such that
k2 = 8h
