CHAPTER-1 : RELATIONS AND FUNCTIONS
[In 2015, 1 Que. of 6 marks]
1.
Relations :
In case of neither nor condition we take examples, otherwise we give a general proof.Ex.1 : Show that the relation R on the set R of all real numbers, defined as R = {(a, b) : a < b2} is
neither reflexive nor symmetric nor transitive.
Sol. : We have, R = {(a, b) : a < b2}, where a, b Î R.
Reflexivity: We observe that
2
5 5
2 2
æ ö
£ ç ÷è ø is not true. Therefore, 5 5, R 2 2
æ öÎ/
ç ÷
è ø .
So, R is not reflexive.
Symmetry :We observe that – 1 < 32 but 3 ( 1)£ -/ 2 i.e. (–1, 3) Î R but (3, –1) Ï R.
So, R is not symmetric. Transitivity : We find that
2 < (–3)2 and –3 < 12 but 2 £/ 12
i.e., (2, –3) Î R and (–3, 1) Î R but (2, 1) Ï R. So, R is not transitive.
Ex.2 : Show that the relation R on R defined as R = {(a, b) : a < b} is reflexive and transitive but not symmetric.
Sol. : We have, R = {(a, b) : a < b}, where a, b Î R. Reflexivity: For any a Î R, we have a < a.
Þ (a, a) Î R for all a Î R. Þ R is reflexive.
Symmetry :We observe that 2 < 3 but 3 £/ 2 i.e. (2, 3) Î R but (3, 2) Ï R. So, R is not symmetric.
Transitivity : Let (a, b) Î R and (b, c) Î R. Then, (a, b) Î R and (b, c) Î R
Þ a < b and b < c Þ a < c
Þ (a, c) Î R So, R is transitive.
2.
Functions :
Graphical representation of functions must be avoided. If it can not be avoided, then the full explanation of the graph must be done.Ex.1 : Prove that ƒ : R ® R, given by ƒ(x) = 2x, is one-one and onto.
Sol. : We observe the following properties of ƒ :
Injectivity : Let x1, x2 Î R such that ƒ(x1) = ƒ(x2). Then, ƒ(x1) = ƒ(x2)
Þ 2x1 = 2x2 Þ x1 = x2
So, ƒ : R ® R is one-one.
Surjectivity : Let y be any real number in R(co-domain). Then, ƒ(x) = y Þ 2x = y Þ x y
2 =
Clearly, y R
2Î for y Î R such that
y y ƒ 2 y 2 2 æ ö= æ ö= ç ÷ ç ÷ è ø è ø .
Thus, for each y Î R (co-domain) there exists x y R 2
= Î (domain) such that ƒ(x) = y. This mean that each element in co-domain has its pre-image in domain.
So, ƒ : R ® R is onto.
Hence, ƒ : R ® R is bijection.
Ex.2 : Show that the function ƒ : R ® R, defined as ƒ(x) = x2, is neither one-one nor onto. Sol. : We observe that ƒ(–1) = ƒ(1)
So, ƒ is not one-one.
Since ƒ(x) assumes only non-negative values. So, no negative real number in R (co-domain) has its pre-image in domain (R). Consequently ƒ is not onto.
These facts are evident from the graph of ƒ(x) as shown in Figure
(–1,1) (1,1) ƒ(–1) ƒ(1) (1,0) (–1,0) x x y y
CHAPTER-2 : I.T.F.
[In 2015, 1 Que. of 4 marks]1. The principal value of I.T.F. always exist in the principal value branch (range)
Ex.1 : cot–1(cotq) = q, for all q Î (0, p). Sol. : sin 1 sin2 2
3 3 - æ pö ¹ p ç ÷ è ø as 2 3 p
does not lie between
2 p - and 2 p . Now, sin 1 sin2 sin 1 sin
3 3 - æ pö= - ì æp -p üö ç ÷ í ç ÷ý è ø î è øþ 2 sin isn 3 3 é p= æp -p ùö ç ÷ ê è øú ëQ û
Þ sin 1 sin2 sin 1 sin
3 3 - æ pö= - æ pö ç ÷ ç ÷ è ø è ø [Q sin(p – q) = sinq] Þ 1 2 sin sin 3 3 - æ pö = p ç ÷ è ø
2. Page no. 42 of NCERT : We will not go in to the details of these values of x in the domain as this discussion goes beyond the scope of this text book.
For example : st 1 1 1 nd 1 rd 1 x y 1 tan , if xy 1 1 xy x y
tan x tan y 2 tan if x 0, y 0 & xy 1
1 xy x y 3 tan if x 0, y 0 & xy 1 1 xy -- - -ì æ + ö < ï ç - ÷ è ø ï ï + ï æ ö + =í p + ç ÷ > > > -è ø ï ï æ + ö ï -p + ç ÷ < < > -ï è ø î ,
2nd and 3rd results go beyond the scope of text book. 3. Focus on existence of a value, which is determined.
Ex.2 : Solve : sin 1(1 x) 2sin x1
2
- - - - =p
Sol. : We have, sin 1(1 x) 2sin x1
2 - - - - =p Þ sin 1(1 x) 2sin x1 2 - - = +p -Þ 1 x sin 2sin x1 2 -p æ ö - = ç + ÷ è ø Þ 1 x cos 2sin x- =
(
-1)
Þ 1 – x = cos{cos–1(1 – 2x2)} [Q 2sin–1x = cos–1(1 – 2x2)]
Þ 1 – x = (1 – 2x2) Þ x 2x= 2 Þ x(2x – 1) = 0 Þ x 0, 1
2 =
For, x 1 2
= , we have LHS = sin–1(1 – x) – 2sin–1x
x sin 11 2sin 11 sin 11 R.H.S.
2 2 2 6
- - - p
= - = - = - ¹
So, x 1 2
= is not a root of the given equation. Clearly, x = 0 satisfies the equation.
Hence, x = 0 is a root of the given equation.
CHAPTER-3 : MATRICES
[In 2015, 3 Que. of (1 + 4 + 4) = 9 marks]1. Focus on presentation of word problems.
Ex.1 : There are two families A and B. There are 4 men, 6 women and 2 children in family A and 2 men, 2 women and 4 children in family B. The recommended daily allowance for calories is : Man : 2400, Woman : 1900, Child : 1800 and for proteins in Man : 55gm, Woman : 45 gm and Child : 33 gm.
Represent the above information by matrices. Using matrix multiplication, calculate the total requirement of calories and proteins for each of the two families.
Sol. : The members of the two families can be represented by the 2 × 3 matrix
M W C A 4 6 2 F B 2 2 4 é ù = ê ú ë û
and the recommended daily allowance of calories and proteins for each member can be represented by 3 × 2 matrix Calories Proteins M 2400 55 F W 1900 45 C 1800 33 é ù ê ú = ê ú ê ú ë û
The total requirement of calories and proteins for each of the two families is given by the matrix multiplication : 2400 55 4 6 2 A 24600 556 FR 1900 45 2 2 4 B 15800 332 1800 33 é ù é ùê ú é ù =ê úê ú= ê ú ë ûê ú ë û ë û
Hence, family A requires 24600 calories and 556 gm proteins and family B requires 15800 calories and 332 gm proteins.
2. Read the question carefully based on finding the inverse matrix (There are three types of questions)
(a) First type question : find the inverse matrix using elementary transformation.
In row ele. trans. In column ele. trans
We write A = IA We write A = AI.
Do not mix. row and column ele. trans.
(b) Second type question : Find the inverse matrix.
in this case use formula A 1 adjA
| A |
- = and firstly check the existence of A–1 through |A| ¹ 0. Third type Question : If A = 3 1
1 2
é ù
ê- ú
ë û show that A
2 – 5A + 7I = 0. Hence find A–1. In this case for
finding A–1 use property [A.A–1 = A–1A = I].
CHAPTER-4 : DETERMINANT
[In 2015, 1 Que. of 4 marks]1. Focus on applying only one either row or column operation at a time. For example : 2 3 5 6 0 4 1 5 7 -D =
-Here firstly on applying R1 ® R1 – R2, we get
4 3 1 6 0 4 1 5 7 - -D =
-Secondly, on applying C2 ® C2 – C1, we get
4 1 1 6 6 4 1 4 7 -D = -2. Focus on writting (±) sign, when area is given.
3. Do not use CRAMER'S RULE for solving a solution of the system of linear equations. Use matrix method (X = A–1B)
CHAPTER-5 : CONTINUITY & DIFFERENTIABILITY
[In 2015, 3 Que. of 4+4+4 = 12 marks]1. Use limit for any type of discussion of continuity and differentiability (avoid the graph) for continuity (at a point x = a) RHL =
h 0
lim ƒ(a h)
® + = LHL = lim ƒ(a h)h®0 - = ƒ(a)
for diff. (at a point x = a) RHD =
h 0 ƒ(a h) ƒ(a) lim h ® + - = LHD = h 0 ƒ(a h) ƒ(a) lim h ® - -2. Focus on second order derivative of parametric function.
For example : If x = acos3q and y = asin3q, then find the value of
2 2 d y dx at 6 p q = .
Sol. x = acos3q ; y = asin3q
2 dx 3cos ( sin ) dq= q - q ...(i) ; 2 dy 3a sin cos dq = q q ...(ii) from dy dy / d dx dx / d q = q
2 2 dy 3a sin cos tan dx 3a cos sin q q = = - q - q q Þ 2 2 2 d y d sec dx dx q = - q´ = - q´ - q q 2 2 1 sec 3a cos sin 2 2 4 d y 1 dx 3a.cos .sin æ ö = ç ÷ q q è ø Þ 2 4 2 6 d y 1 32 dx 3 1 27a 3a 2 2 p q= æ ö = = ç ÷ è ø æ ö ´çè ÷ø ´
3. Proving questions based on second order derivative, apply oppropriate method which takes minimum time.
Ex.1 : If y = sin–1x, show that
(
2)
2 2d y dy
1 x x 0
dx dx
- - =
Sol. : We have y = sin–1x. Then
2 dy 1 dx = (1 x )- or 2 dy (1 x ) 1 dx - = So d (1 x ).2 dy 0 dx dx æ - ö= ç ÷ è ø or 2 2 2 2 d y dy d (1 x ) . (1 x ) 0 dx dx dx - + - = or 2 2 2 2 d y dy 2x (1 x ) . 0 dx dx 2 1 x - - = -Hence
(

2 2 d y dy 1 x x 0 dx dx - - =Alternatively, Given that y = sin–1x, we have
(
2)
21 2 1 1 y , i.e., 1 x y 1 1 x = - = -So (1 – x2).2y 1y2 +y (0 2x) 012 - = Hence (1 – x2)y 2 – xy1 = 0

Step 2 : Let function properly.
Step 3 : Establish a relation between two variables. Step 4 : Differentiate the function and find critical point. Step 5 : Use FODT or SODT for maximum and minimum .
CHAPTER-7 : INTEGRAL
[In 2015, 1 Que. of 4+4+4 = 12 marks]Indefinite integration
1. Integrals of some particular function use directly :
(i) 21 2 dx 1 log x a C x a 2a x a -= + - +
ò
(x > a) (ii) 2 1 2 dx 1 log a x C a x 2a a x + = + --ò

(vi) 2 2 2 2 1 dx log | x x a | C x +a = + + +ò
(vii) 2 2 2 2 1 dx log | x x a | C x -a = + - +ò
2. Use partial fraction method for integration of proper rational function (for this use table 7.2 Page No 317 NCERT)
Definite Integration :
3. If we use properties of D.I., then write standard form of properties. for example :

CHAPTER-10 : VECTOR
[In 2015, 3 Que. of (1+1+4) = 6 marks]
1. Do not calculate directly from coordinate geometry use vector sign ABuuur or ar .
Ex.1 : L and M are two points with position vector 2a br-r and a 2br+ r respectively. Write the position vector of a point N which divides the line segment LM in the ratio 2 : 1 externally. Sol. ON 2 OM 1 OL 2 1 ´ - ´ = -uuuur uuur uuur L M N a+2b (2a–b) O 2 (a 2b) 1 (2a b) ON 1 ´ + - ´ -= r r r r uuur =5br [1]
Ex.2 Find a vector ar of magnitude 5 2, making an angle of
4 p
with x-axis,
2 p
with y-axis and an acute angle q with z-axis.
Sol. Here cos 1
4 2 p = = l and m cos 0 2 p = = Therefore, l2 + m2 + n2 = 1 gives 1 0 n2 1 2+ + = Þ = 1n 2 Hence, the required vector rr 5 2 ( i mj nk)= lˆ+ ˆ+ ˆ is given by
æ ö = ç + + ÷= = + è ø r 1 ˆ 1 ˆ r ˆ ˆ r 5 2 i 0 j k r 5i 5k 2 2 . ...(1) [1]
