⇒  \(=\left[0, \frac{\pi}{2}\right] \cup\left[\frac{3 \pi}{2}, 2 \pi\right]\)

Question 32. Let f(x) = \(\sqrt{\log \left(2 x-x^2\right)}\). then, dom (f) = ?

  1. (0,2)
  2. [1,2]
  3. (-,1)
  4. None of these

Answer: 4. None of these

f (x) is defined only when log (2x- x2) > 0

⇒  (2x- x2) >1 => (1 + x2– 2x) < 0

⇒  (1- x)2 < 0

⇒  (1- x) = 0

⇒   x=1.

⇒ dom (f) = {1}.

Question 33. Let f(x) = x2. Then, dom (/) and range (/) are respectively

  1. R and R
  2. R+ and R+
  3. R and R+
  4. R and R- {0}

Answer: 3. R and R+

f(x) = x2 is clearly defined for each x ∈ R.

So, dom (f)=R. y= x2 x=± \(x= \pm \sqrt{ } y .\)

When y < 0, there is no real value of x. So, y ≥ 0.

∴Range (f) = R.

Question 34. Let f(x) = x3. Then, dom (f) and range (f) are respectively.

  1. R and R
  2. R+ and R+
  3. R and R+
  4. R+ and R

Answer: 1. R and R

f (x) = x3 is defined for each x ∈ R.

So, dom (f)=R.

For each y∈ R,y1/3 ∈ R and so x= is real.

∴ range (f) =R.

Question 35. Let f(x)= \(\log (1-x)+\sqrt{x^2-1}\).Then ,dom(f) = ?

  1. (1,∞)
  2. (-∞,-1)
  3. [-1,1]
  4. (0,1)

Answer: 2. (-∞,-1)

Let f (x) = g{x) + h(x), where g(x) = log (1- x) and h(x) = \(\sqrt{x^2-1}\)

g(x) is defined only whenl-x>0 => x<l.So, dom (g) = (∞, 1)

h(x) is defined only when x2-1 > 0 => x >1 or x <-1

∴ dom (h) = (-∞, -1]∪[1, ∞)

∴ dom (f) = dom (g)∩ dom(h) = (-∞, -1].

Question 36. Let \(=\frac{1}{\left(1-x^2\right)}\). Then ,range(f)= ?

  1. [-∞,1)
  2. [1,∞)
  3. [-1,1]
  4. None of these

Answer: 2. [0,1)

y =  \(\frac{1}{\left(1-x^2\right)}\)

x = \(\sqrt{1-\frac{1}{y}}\)

Clearly, x is not defined when y = 0 or 1\(-\frac{1}{y}\) < 0, i.e., y = 0 or y < 1.

∴ range (f) = [1, ∞).

Question 37. Let f(x)\(=\frac{x^2}{\left(1+x^2\right)}\)

  1. [1,∞]
  2. [0,1)
  3. [-1,1]
  4. (0,1)

Answer: 2. [0,1)

y = \(\frac{x^2}{\left(1+x^2\right)} \Rightarrow x=\sqrt{\frac{y}{1-y}}\)

Clearly, x is defined only when \(\frac{y}{(1-y)}\) and(1-y)≠ 0, i.e., when 0 ≤ y ≤ 1.

So, range (f) = [0, 1).

Question 38. The range of f(x) = \(x+\frac{1}{x}\) is

  1. [-2,2]
  2. [2,∞)
  3. (-∞,-2)
  4. None of these

Answer: 4. None of these

y\(=\frac{x^2+1}{x}\)

⇒ x2– xy + 1= 0

x= \(\frac{y \pm \sqrt{y^2-4}}{2}\)

Question 39. The range of f(x) = ax, Where a> 0 is

  1. ]-∞,0]
  2. ]∞-,0)
  3. [0,∞)
  4. (0,∞)

Answer: 4. (0,∞)

Clearly, ax> 0 whatever may be the value of x.

∴ Range (f) = (0, ∞)

Answer: 3. \(\frac{3 \pi}{4}\)

⇒ \(\tan ^{-1} 1+\cos ^{-1}\left(\frac{-1}{2}\right)+\sin ^{-1}\left(\frac{-1}{2}\right)\)

= \(\frac{\pi}{4}+\left(\pi-\cos ^{-1} \frac{1}{2}\right)-\sin ^{-1} \frac{1}{2}\)

= \(\left(\frac{\pi}{4}+\pi-\frac{\pi}{3}-\frac{\pi}{6}\right)\)

Question 26. tan[2 tan-1\(\frac{1}{5}-\frac{\pi}{4}\)]= ?

  1. \(\frac{7}{17}\)
  2. \(\frac{-7}{17}\)
  3. \(\frac{7}{12}\)
  4. \(\frac{-7}{12}\)

Answer: 2. \(\frac{-7}{17}\)

Let 2\(\tan ^{-1} \frac{1}{5}=\theta\) .

Then \(\tan ^{-1} \frac{1}{5}=\frac{1}{2} \theta \Rightarrow \tan \frac{1}{2} \theta=\frac{1}{5}\)

∴ \(\tan \theta=\frac{2 \tan \frac{1}{2} \theta}{1-\tan ^2 \frac{1}{2} \theta}=\frac{\left(2 \times \frac{1}{5}\right)}{\left(1-\frac{1}{25}\right)}\)

= \(\left(\frac{2}{5} \times \frac{25}{24}\right)=\frac{5}{12}\)

∴ \(\tan \left[2 \tan ^{-1} \frac{1}{5}-\frac{\pi}{4}\right]=\tan \left(\theta-\frac{\pi}{4}\right)=\frac{\tan \theta-\tan \frac{\pi}{4}}{1+\tan \theta \cdot \tan \frac{\pi}{4}}\)

= \(\frac{\left(\frac{5}{12}-1\right)}{\left(1+\frac{5}{12} \times 1\right)}=\frac{\left(\frac{-7}{12}\right)}{\left(\frac{17}{12}\right)}=\frac{-7}{17}\)

  3. \(\frac{(5-\sqrt{3})}{2}\)
  4. \(\frac{(5+\sqrt{3})}{2}\)

Answer: 1. \(\frac{(3+\sqrt{5})}{2}\)

Let \(\cos ^{-1} \frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}=\theta\).Then,cos \(\cos \theta=\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}\)

⇒ \(\tan \frac{1}{2}\left(\cos ^{-1} \frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}\right)=\tan \frac{1}{2} \theta=\frac{\sin (\theta / 2)}{\cos (\theta / 2)}\)

⇒ \(\sqrt{\frac{1-\cos \theta}{1+\cos \theta}}=\left\{\frac{\left(1-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}\right)}{\left(1+\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3}\right)}\right\}^{1 / 2}\)

= \(\left(\frac{3-\sqrt{5}}{3+\sqrt{5}}\right)^{1 / 2}=\left\{3-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{3+\sqrt{5}} \times \frac{3-\sqrt{5}}{3+\sqrt{5}}\right\}^{1 / 2}\)

= \(\frac{(3-\sqrt{5})}{2}\)

Answer: 2. \(\frac{4}{5}\)

Let cos-1 \(\frac{3}{5}\)= x ∈ where [0,π] .Then ,cos x= \(\frac{3}{5}\)

∴ Since x[0,π],sinx > 0

∴ Since x\(\sqrt{1-\frac{9}{25}}\)

= \(\sqrt{\frac{16}{25}}=\frac{4}{5}\)

⇒ \(\sin \left(\cos ^{-1} \frac{3}{5}\right)=\frac{4}{5}\)

Answer: 2. \(\frac{4}{5}\)

Let \(\tan ^{-1} \frac{3}{4}\) = x where x ∈ \(\left(\frac{-\pi}{2}, \frac{\pi}{2}\right)\)

∴tan x= \(\frac{3}{4}\) and since x ∈ \(\left(\frac{-\pi}{2}, \frac{\pi}{2}\right)\),we have cos x>0

∴cos x = \(\frac{1}{\sec x}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{1+\tan ^2 x}}\)

= \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{1+\frac{9}{16}}}=\frac{4}{5}\)

= \(\cos \left(\tan ^{-1} \frac{3}{4}\right)\)

cos x=\(\frac{4}{5}\)

  3. \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{10}}\)
  4. \(\frac{2}{\sqrt{10}}\)

Answer: 3. \(\frac{1}{\sqrt{10}}\)

Let \(\cos ^{-1} \frac{4}{5}=\) = x where x∈ [0,π].

Then cos x= \(\frac{4}{5}\)

Since x∈ [0,π] ⇒ \(\frac{1}{2} x \in\left[0, \frac{\pi}{2}\right] \Rightarrow \sin \frac{1}{2} x>0\)

sin = \( \left(\frac{1}{2} \cos ^{-1} \frac{4}{5}\right)=\sin \frac{1}{2} x\)

= \(\sqrt{\frac{1-\cos x}{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{\left(1-\frac{4}{5}\right)}{2}}=\)
