SOLUTIONS

SECTION-A
1. If 𝐟 = {(1,2), (2, −3), (3, −1)} then find (i) 2 + 𝑓(𝑖𝑖)√𝑓
Sol: Given that f = {(1,2), (2, −3), (3, −1)} ⇒ f(1) = 2, f(2) = −3, f(3) = −1
(i) (2 + f)(x) = f(x) + 2 ⇒ (2 + f)(1) = f(1) + 2 = 2 + 2 = 4; (2 + f)(2) = f(2) + 2 = −3 + 2 = −1 (2 + f)(3) =
f(3) + 2 = −1 + 2 = 1 Hence, 2 + f = {(1,4), (2, −1), (3,1)}
(ii) √f(x) = √f(x) ⇒ √f(1) = √f(1) = √2; √f(2) = √f(2) = √−3 not defined √f(3) = √f(3) = √−1 not defined.
Hence, √f = {(1, √2)}

2. Find the domain of √9 − 𝑥 2

Sol: √9 − 𝑥 2 is defined when 9 − 𝑥 2 ≥ 0 ⇒ 𝑥 2 − 9 ≤ 0 ⇒ (𝑥 + 3)(𝑥 − 3) ≤ 0 ⇒ 𝑥 ∈ [−3,3]

∴ Domain of f(x) is [−3,3]

3. For any square matrix A , show that AA′ is symmetric.

Sol: To show that AA′ is Symmetric, we have to show that (AA′ )′ = AA′
L.H.S = (AA′ )′ )′ (A′ )′ A′ [ since (AB)′ = B ′ A′ ]
= 𝐴′ [ since (𝐴′ )′ = 𝐴]
= R.H.S

Thus (AA') ′ = AA′

Hence, AA' is a symmetric matrix.

Sol: Given function is 3sin 𝑥 − 4cos 𝑥

On comparing with 𝑎sin 𝑥 + 𝑏cos 𝑥 + 𝑐, we get 𝑎 = 3, 𝑏 = −4, 𝑐 = 0
Now √a2 + b 2 = √32 + (−4)2 = √9 + 16 = √25 = 5
∴ Maximum value = c + √a2 + b 2 = 0 + 5 = 5
Minimum value = 𝑐 − √a2 + b 2 = 0 − 5 = −5

0 0 0 0
Hence, from (1), we observe that 𝜌(𝐴) = 𝜌(𝐴𝐵) = 2
Here, Rank of the coefficient matrix = 2 and number of unknowns = 3
∴ The given system of equations is consistent and has infinitely many solutions.
From (1), we have 𝑥 + 𝑦 + 𝑧 = 1, −𝑦 − 𝑧 = 0 ⇒ 𝑦 = −𝑧
∴x−Z+z=1⇒x =1
If z = k, k ∈ R then the complete solution of the given system of equations is x = 1, y = −k, z = k

OR = −a + 2 b − 4c, OS = −12a − b − 3c, where ' O′ ' is the origin.
PQ = OQ − OP = (2a − b + 3c) − (6a + 2 b − c) = −4a − 3 b + 4C

So, PQ, PR, PS are coplanar.
Hence proved that the four points 𝑃, 𝑄, 𝑅, 𝑆 are coplanar.

13. Find the volume of the tetrahedron, whose vertices are (1,2,1), (3,2,5), (2, −1,0) and (−1,0,1).

Sol: Let O be the origin of reference so that OA = i + 2j + k, OB = 3i + 2j + 5k,

OC = 2i − j, OD = −i + k
Then AB = OB − OA = (3i + 2j + 5k) − (i + 2j + k) = 2i + 4k

AC = OC − OA = (2i − j) − (i + 2j + k) = i − 3j − k

AD = OD − OA = (−i + k) − (i + 2j + k) = −2i − 2j

 IPE MATHS 1A (MODEL PAPER – 4)

∴ fof −1 : 𝐵 → 𝐵
We know, 𝐼𝐵 : 𝐵 → 𝐵. So, fof −1 and 𝐼𝐵 , both have same domain 𝐵
Part-2: For 𝑏 ∈ 𝐵, ( fof −1 )(𝑏) = 𝑓[𝑓 −1 (𝑏)]

= 𝑓(𝑎)[∵ 𝑓: 𝐴 → 𝐵 is bijection ⇒ 𝑓(𝑎) = 𝑏 ⇒ 𝑓 −1 (𝑏) = 𝑎, for 𝑎 ∈ 𝐴]

= 𝑏 = 𝐼𝐵 (𝑏)[∵ 𝐼𝐵 (𝑏) = 𝑏, for 𝑏 ∈ 𝐵]

Hence we proved that fof −1 = 𝐼𝐵

(ii) To prove that 𝑓 −1 of = 𝐼𝐴

Part-1: Given f: A → B is a bijective function, then f −1 : B → A is also a bijection

∴ f −1 of: A → A

We know IA : A → A So, f −1 of and IA , both have same domain A

Part-2: for a ∈ A, (f −1 of)(a) = f −1 [f(a)]

= f −1 ( b) = a[∵ f: A → B is a bijection ⇒ f(a) = b ⇒ f −1 ( b) = a]

= IA (a)[∵ IA (a) = a, for a ∈ A]

Hence we proved that 𝑓 −1 𝑜𝑓 = 𝐼𝐴

19. Using Mathematical Induction, prove that statement for all 𝐧 ∈ 𝐍

Sol: Let 𝑆(𝑛): (1 + 1) (1 + 4) (1 + 9) ⋯ ⋯ ⋯ ⋯ (1 + 𝑛2

3 2
(a) L.H.S of 𝑆(1) = 1 + 1 = 4, R.H.S of 𝑆(1) = (1 + 1) = 4
∴ L.H.S = R.H.S ∴ S(1) is true.
(b) Assume that S(k) is true. for k ∈ N.
3 5 7 2k+1
S(k): (1 + 1) (1 + 4) (1 + 9) ⋯ ⋯ ⋯ ⋯ (1 + k2 ) = (k + 1)2 .
(c) Now we show that 𝑆(𝑘 + 1) is true
L.H.S of 𝑆(𝑘 + 1) =

= (k + 1)2 + 2k + 3 = k 2 + 4k + 4 = (k + 2)2 = R.H.S of S(k + 1)

∴ S(k + 1) is true, whenever S(k) is true.

Hence, by the principle of finite Mathematical Induction 𝑆(𝑛) is true for all 𝑛 ∈ 𝑁

21. Solve the following system of equations by using Cramer's rule

𝑥 − 𝑦 + 3𝑧 = 5,4𝑥 + 2𝑦 − 𝑧 = 0, 𝑥 + 3𝑦 + 𝑧 = 5.
Sol: The matrix equation corresponding to the given system of equations be 𝐴𝑋 = 𝐷, where

Hence, we can solve the given equations by using Cramer's rule.

Δ1 = |0 2 −1| = 5(2 × 1 − (−1) × 3) + 1(0 × 1 − (−1) × 5) + 3(0 × 3 + 5 × 2) = 25 + 5 − 30 = 0;

Hence by Cramer's rule,

Δ 0 Δ 40 Δ 80
x = Δ1 = 40 = 0; y = Δ2 = 40 = 1 and z = Δ3 = 40 = 2
∴ the solution of the given system of equations is x = 0, y = 1, z = 2
