students had interest in history as well. The teacher narrated that India Gate, official name
Delhi Memorial, originally called All-India War Memorial, monumental sandstone arch in
New Delhi, dedicated to the troops of British India who died in wars fought between 1914
and 1919. The teacher also said that India Gate, which is located at the eastern end of the
Raj path (formerly called the Kingsway), is about 138 feet (42 m) in height.

2 The Government of India is planning to fix a hoarding board at the face of a building on the
road of a busy market for awareness on COVID-19 protocol. Ram, Robert and Rahim are
the three engineers who are working on this project. “A” is considered to be a person
viewing the hoarding board 20 meters away from the building, standing at the edge of a
pathway nearby. Ram, Robert and Rahim suggested to the firm to place the hoarding
board at three different locations namely C, D and E. “C” is at the height of 10 meters from
the ground level. For the viewer A, the angle of elevation of “D” is double the angle of
elevation of “C” The angle of elevation of “E” is triple the angle of elevation of “C” for the
same viewer. Look at the figure given and based on the above information answer the

Q.NO.17 Read the passage given below and answer the following questions……..
Logarithmic Differentiation.
Assume that the function has the form y = f(x)g(x) where both f and g are non-constant
functions. Although this function is not implicit, it does not fall under any of the forms for
which we developed differentiation formulas so far. This is because of the following.
 In order to use the power rule, the exponent needs to be constant.
 In order to use the exponential function differentiation formula, the base needs to
be constant.
Thus, no differentiation rule covers the case y = f(x)g(x)
 These functions sill can be differentiated by using the method known as the
logarithmic differentiation.
To differentiate a function of the form y = f(x)g(x) follow the steps of the logarithmic
differentiation below.
1. Take logarithm of both sides of the equation y = f(x)g(x):
2. Rewrite the right side logf(x)g(x) as g(x). log(f(x)):
3. Differentiate both sides.

 to calculate work done by a variable force and work done by a constant force. This suggests
that integrating the product of force and distance is the general way of determining the

integration by substitution.

Consider the integral Let g(x) = t, then
= dt
Also, when x = a, t = g(a) and t = g(b) for x = b.
Therefore

Thus if the variable in a definite integral is changed, then the substitution in terms of new
variable is effected in three places:
(i)In the integrand (ii) in the differential, say , dx (iii) in the limits

Also, limits of the new variable t are simply the values of t corresponding to the values of
the original variable x and so they are obtained by putting the values of x in the substitution
relation between x and t.

Based on the above information, answer the following questions:

(i) is equal to:

(a) (b) (c) (d)

(ii) is equal to:

(a) (b) (c) (d)

In geometry we have learnt formulae to calculate areas of various geometrical figures including
triangles, rectangles, trapezius and circle. Such formulae are fundamental in the applications of
Mathematics to many real-life problems. The formulae of geometry allow us to calculate areas
of many simple figures. However, they are inadequate for calculating the areas enclosed by
curves. For that we need concept of integral calculus.
