Q.38 to 40 is "Match the Column" type. Column-I and column-II contains four entries each. Entry of column-I are to
be matched with one or more than one entries of column-II.

38. Column-I contains four function and column-II contains the properties. Match the entries of column-I with
entry/entries of column-II. The matching can be one to many and many to one. Here [*] and {*} denotes
the greatest integer and fractional part function.
