Read the following writeup carefully:

y = ax2 + bx + c = 0 is a quadratic equation which has real roots if and only if b2 – 4ac  0. If f(x, y) = 0 is a
second degree equation, then using above fact we can get the range of x and y by treating it as quadratic
equation in y or x. Similarly ax2 + bx + c  0  x  R if a > 0 and b2 – 4ac  0.

Now answer the following questions (1 – 5):

1. If 0 < ,  < 2, then the number of ordered pairs (, ) satisfying sin2( + ) – 2 sin sin( + ) +
sin2 + cos2 = 0 is
(A) 2 (B) 0
(C) 4 (D) none of these

2. If A + B + C = , then the maximum value of cosA + cosB + k cosC (where k > 1/2) is
1 k 2k 2  1
(A)  (B)
k 2 3
k2  2 1
(C) (D) k
2 2k

3. A circle with radius |a| and centre on y-axis slides along it and a variable line through (a, 0) cuts
the circle at points P and Q. The region in which the point of intersection of tangents to the circle
at points P and Q lies is represented by
(A) y2  4(ax – a2) (B) y2  4(ax – a2)
(C) y  4(ax – a2) (D) y  4(ax – a2)

4. In above question, let Aa represents the region asked in the problem (obviously |a| is radius of
circle), then the region represented by 
A a will be
aR
(A) h2 – k2  0 (B) h2 – k2  0
(C) h + 2k < 0 (D) h + 2k > 0

5. If 9x + 1 + (a2– 4a – 2)3x + 1 > 0  x  R, then

(A) a  R (B) a  R+
(C) a  [1, ) (D) a  R – {2}

Read the following writeup carefully:

A conic section is obtained by the intersection of two inverted cones (having same vertex) with a plane. If
a plane passes through the vertex, then its intersection with the cones either represents a pair of straight
lines or a point depending upon whether it intersects the cones or not. If plane does not pass through
vertex, then section may be hyperbola or circle depending upon whether plane is parallel to axis of the
cone or perpendicular to it. If it has any other inclination, then intersection of plane and cone gives an
ellipse.

Now answer the following questions (6 – 10):

6. If a variable point P moves such that the line passing through P and Q (0, 0, 2) makes an angle
60 with z-axis, then locus of P is
(A) x2 – y2 – 3(z – 2)2 = 0 (B) x2 – y2 + 3(z – 2)2 = 0
2 2 2
(C) x + y – 3(z – 2) = 0 (D) x2 + y2 + 3(z – 2)2 = 0

7. The locus of intersection of locus of P with the plane x + y + z = 1 is

(A) a pair of straight lines (B) a hyperbola
(C) a circle (D) an ellipse

8. The locus of intersection of locus of P and the plane x + y + z = 2 is

(A) a pair of straight lines (B) a hyperbola
(C) a circle (D) a point

9. The locus of intersection of locus of P with x + y = 2 is

(A) a straight line (B) a hyperbola
(C) a circle (D) an ellipse

10. The locus of intersection of locus of P with 2x + y + z = 2 is

(A) a straight line (B) a hyperbola
(C) a circle (D) a point

Read the following writeup carefully:

If ax2 + by2 + 2hxy + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0 represents an ellipse, then h2 < ab and abc + 2fgh – af2 – bg2 – ch2
 0. If for every point (x1, y1) satisfying above equation (2h – x1, 2k – y1) also satisfy it, then (h, k) is centre
of it. The length of semi major axis and minor axis is nothing but the maximum and minimum value of the
distance of a point lying on the curve from its centre.
