15. (a) We have, y = x2 – 2x + 7 Thus, only the statements C and E are true.
dy 19. (a) Q Domain of cos–1q is –1 ≤ q ≤ 1.
⇒ = 2x − 2
dx So, –1 ≤ 2x – 1 ≤ 1 ⇒ 0 ≤ 2x ≤ 2 ⇒ 0 ≤ x ≤ 1
Now, shape of give line, 2x – y + 9 = 0 is 2. \ Domain of cos–1 (2x – 1) is [0, 1].
Let (x1, y1) be the point of tangency x x−y
20. (c) Let tan −1 − tan −1 =t
So, 2x1 – 2 = 2 ⇒ 2x1 = 4 ⇒ x1 = 2 y
x+y
⇒ y1 = (2)2 – 2(2) + 7 = 7 x x−y
So, equation of line is −
y x+y x 2 + xy − xy + y 2

So, b R/ a.
\ R is not symmetric 3 −4 −5
T
Let a R B and b R c ⇒ A = 2a 0 3
⇒ a is borther of c & b is brother of c −5 b 7
⇒ a is brother of c Now, A = AT [Q A is symmetric]
⇒ a R c ⇒ R is transitive. 3 2a −5 3 −4 −5
17. (a) We have, R = (1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3), (1, 2), (2, 3) and 2a 0 3
⇒ −4 0 b =
A = (1, 2, 3) −5 3 7 −5 b 7
Since, (1, 1), (2, 2) and (3, 3) ∈ R
⇒ 2a = –4 and b = 3
⇒ R is reflexive.
⇒ a = –2 and b = 3
Since, (1, 2) ∈ R is present but (2, 1) ∉ R, thus R is
⇒ a + b = 1
not symmetric. 2
22. (b) Since, |Adj(Adj A)| = |A|(n–1)
And since (1, 2) and (2, 3) ∈ R so (1, 3) ∉ R. 2
⇒ |Adj(Adj (3A))| = |3A|(3) = (34|A|)9
Therefore, R is not transitive.
