2. Check whether the function f : z → z, defined by f(x) = x2 + 5 ∀x ∈ z is one-one or not.
Answer : 
Since, f(1) = f(–1) = 6, therefore f is not one-one.
[ For f to be one-one distinct elements
should have distinct imaγes]

3. A line makes angles α, β and γ with the coordinate axes. If α + β = 90°, then find the value of angle γ.
Answer : 
We know that cos2α + cos2β + cos2γ = 1
⇒ cos2α + cos2(90° – α) + cos2γ = 1 [∵ α + β = 90°]
⇒ cos2α + sin2α + cos2γ = 1 ⇒ 1 + cos2γ = 1
⇒ cos2γ = 0 ⇒ cosγ = 0 ⇒ γ = 90°.

5. If |a̅| −|b̅| = |a̅| = |b̅|=1, then find the angle between a̅ and b̅.
Answer : 
Given |a̅| −|b̅| = |a̅| = |b̅|=1
Now |a̅−b̅|2 = |a̅|2 + |b̅|–2a̅b̅ ⇒ 1=1+1−2|a̅|.|b̅| cosθ (where θ is angle between a̅ and b̅)
⇒ cosθ = 1/2 ⇒ θ = π/3

6. Let A = {1, 2, 3}. Check whether the relation {(1,1),(2,2),(3,3),(1,2),(2,1)} is an equivalence relation on A or not.
Answer : 
We have, A = {1, 2, 3}
and let R = {(1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3), (1, 2), (2, 1)}
Since, for each a ∈ A, we have (a, a) ∈ R.
Also, (a, b) ∈ R ⇒ (b, a) ∈ R
and (1, 2) ∈ R, (2, 1) ∈ R ⇒ (1, 1) ∈ R
Thus, R is reflexive, symmetric and transitive .
Hence, R is an equivalence relation.

Answer : 
Clearly, P(E) = 1 – P( E ) = 1 – 0.36 = 0.64
Now, P(F | E) = 0.5
⇒ P(E∩F) /P(E) = 0.5 ⇒  P(E∩F) = P(E) x 0.5
= 0.64 × 0.5 = 0.32

14. Check whether the following arrow diagram represents a function or not.

Class 12 Mathematics Sample Paper With Solutions Set B

15. If A and B are two independent events, then show that the probability of occurrence of atleast one of A and B is given by 1 – P(A′) P(B′).
Answer : 
P(atleast one of A and B)
= P(A ∪ B) = P(A) + P(B) – P(A ∩ B)
= P(A) + P(B) – P(A) P(B) [∵ A, B are independent]
= P(A) + P(B) [1 – P(A)] = [1 – P(A′)] + P(B) P(A′)
= 1 – P(A′) + P(B) P(A′) = 1 – P(A′) [1 – P(B)]
= 1 – P(A′) P(B′)
