Q.2) Find the eccentricity of an ellipse, if the length of its latus rectum is
one-third of its minor axis.
Solution:
Let the equation of ellipse be x2a2+y2 b2=1, where a > b.
Length of latus rectum = 2b2a
Length of minor axis = 2b
According to the given condition,
Length of latus rectum = 13 (Minor axis)
Q.4. Show that the line x – y = 5 is a tangent to the ellipse 9x2 + 16y2 =
144. Find the point of contact.
Solution:
Given equation of the ellipse is 9x2 + 16y2 = 144
x216+y29=1
Comparing this equation with x2a2+y2b2=1, we get
a2 = 16 and b2 = 9
Given equation of line is x – y = 5, i.e., y = x – 5
c2 = a2 m2 + b2
Comparing this equation with y = mx + c, we get
m = 1 and c = -5
For the line y = mx + c to be a tangent to the ellipse x2a2+y2b2=1, we
must have
c2 = a2 m2 + b2
c2 = (-5)2 = 25
a2 m2 + b2 = 16(1)2 + 9 = 16 + 9 = 25 = c2
The given line is a tangent to the given ellipse and point of contact
= (−a2 mc,b2c)
= ((−16)(1)−5,9−5)
= (165,−95)
Q.5.Find k, if the line 3x + 4y + k = 0 touches 9x2 + 16y2 = 144.
Solution:
Given equation of the ellipse is 9x2 + 16y2 = 144.
x216+y29=1
Comparing this equation with x2a2+y2 b2=1, we get
a2 = 16 and b2 = 9
Given equation of line is 3x + 4y + k = 0,
i.e., y = −34x−k4
Comparing this equation with y = mx + c, we get
m = −34 and c = −k4
For the line y = mx + c to be a tangent to the ellipse x2a2+y2b2=1, we
must have
c2 = a2 m2 + b2
(−k4)2=16(−34)2+9
k216 = 9 + 9
k216 = 18
k2 = 288
k = ±12√2
Q.6.Find the equation of the hyperbola with centre at the origin, length of
the conjugate axis as 10, and one of the foci as (-7, 0).
Solution:
Given, one of the foci of the hyperbola is (-7, 0).
Since this focus lies on the X-axis, it is a standard hyperbola.
Let the required equation of hyperbola be x2a2−y2b2=1
Length of conjugate axis = 2b
Given, length of conjugate axis = 10
⇒ 2b = 10
⇒b=5
⇒ b2 = 25
Co-ordinates of focus are (-ae, 0)
ae = 7
⇒ a2e2 = 49
Now, b2 = a2(e2 – 1)
⇒ 25 = 49 – a2
⇒ a2 = 49 – 25 = 24
The required equation of hyperbola is x224−y225=1

Chapter 9: Probability
Q.1.Find the probability of getting both red balls, when from a bag
containing 5 red and 4 black balls, two balls are drawn,
(i) with replacement
(ii) without replacement
Solution:
The bag contains 5 red and 4 black balls,
i.e., 5 + 4 = 9 balls.
(i) 2 balls can be drawn from 9 balls with replacement in 9C1×9C1 ways.
∴n(S) = 9C1×9C1 = 9 × 9 = 81
Let event A: Balls drawn are red.
2 red balls can be drawn from 5 red balls with replacement in 5C1×5C1
ways.
∴n(A) = 5C1×5C1 = 5 × 5 = 25
∴ P(A) = n(A)n(S)=2581
Q.2.
A box contains 5 green pencils and 7 yellow pencils. Two pencils are
chosen at random from the box without replacement. What is the
probability that both are yellow?
Solution:
Total number of pencils = 5 + 7 = 12
Let event A: The first pencil chosen is yellow.
∴P(A) = 7C112C1=712
Let event B: The second pencil chosen is yellow.
Since the first yellow pencil is not replaced in the box, we now have 11
pencils, out of which 6 are yellow.
∴ Probability that the second pencil is yellow under the condition that the
first yellow pencil is not replaced in the box = P(B/A)
= 6C111C1
= 611
Required probability = P(A ∩ B)
= P(B/A) . P(A)
= 611×712
= 722
Q.4. In a single toss of a fair die, what are the odds against the event
that number 3 or 4 turns up?
Solution:
When a fair die is tossed, the sample space is
S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
∴ n(S) = 6
Let event A: 3 or 4 turns up.
∴ A = {3, 4}
∴ n(A) = 2
∴ P(A) = n(A)n(S) = 26=13
P(A’) = 1 – P(A) = 1 – 13 = 23
∴ Odds against the event A are P(A’) : P(A)
= 23:13
=2:1

Chapter 8: Continuity
Q.1.Examine the continuity of
(i) f(x) = x3 + 2x2 – x – 2 at x = -2
Solution:
Given, f(x) = x3 + 2x2 – x – 2
f(x) is a polynomial function and hence it is continuous for all x ∈ R.
∴ f(x) is continuous at x = -2.
(ii) f(x) = x2−9x−3, for x ≠ 3
= 8 for x = 3, at x = 3.
Solution:
f(3) = 8 ….(given)
∴ f(x) is discontinuous at x = 3.
Q.2.Find all the points of discontinuities of f(x) = [x] on the interval (-3, 2).
Solution:
f(x) = [x], x ∈ (-3, 2)
i.e., f(x) = -3, x ∈ (-3, -2)
= -2, x ∈ [-2, -1)
= -1, x ∈ [- 1, 0)
= 0, x ∈ [0, 1)
= 1, x ∈ [1, 2)
Similarly, f(x) is discontinuous at the points x = -1, x = 0, x = 1.
Thus all the integer values of x in the interval (-3, 2),
i.e., the points x = -2, x = -1, x = 0 and x = 1 are the required points of
discontinuities.
