PART – A (MATHEMATICS)
SECTION - A
(One Options Correct Type)
This section contains 20 multiple choice questions. Each question has four choices (1), (2), (3) and
(4), out of which ONLY ONE option is correct.

x2  25
*1. If the domain of the function (x) = 
 log10 x 2  2x  15  is  ,    ,   , then
 4  x2 
2 + 3 is equal to:
(1) 140 (2) 175
(3) 125 (4) 150

Ans. (4)
Sol. x2 – 25  0  (x – 5)(x + 5)  0  x  (–, –5]  [5, )
4 – x2  0  x  –2, 2
x2 + 2x – 15 > 0  (x + 5)(x – 3) > 0  x  (–, –5)  (3, )
Taking intersection, we get (–, –5)  [5, )
  = –5,  = 5  2 + 2 = 25 + 125 = 150

(1) R1 and R2 both are equivalence relations
(2) only R1 is an equivalence relation
(3) only R2 is an equivalence relation
(4) neither R1 nor R2 is an equivalence relation

Ans. (3)

Sol. a2 + a2 = 1  a    (a, a)  R1  a  R  R1 is not reflexive
2
 R1 is not equivalence relation
a + b = b + a  (a, b), (a, b)  R2  R2 is reflexive
If (a, b) R2 (c, d)  a + d = b + c
 If a + d = b + c  c + b = d +a  (c, d) R2 (a, b)  R2 is symmetric
For transitive if we need to see it (a, b) R2 (c, d) and (c, d) R2 (e, f)  (a, b) R2 (e, f)
If (a, b) R2 (c, d)  a + d = b + c ….. (1)
If (c, d) R2 (e, f)  c + f = d + e ….. (2)
Adding equation (1) + (2), we get a + f = b + e  (a, b) R2 (e, f)
 R2 is transitive  R2 is equivalence relation
