10. (3) In the graph of y = sin x . Let
1. (2) Since, both sets have same elements. So, A = B
π π
A = (α, sin α), B = ( , sin )
2. (2) The set {x ∈ R∣
∣x
2
> 0} symbolizes the set of all reals 6 6

not equal to 0.
The set {x ∈ R ∣∣x 2
< 0} is empty set. Since there are no
reals such that the square of it is less than 0.
The set {x ∈ R ∣∣x = 0} is singleton set. Since it has only
2

one element 0.

3. (1) The union of two sets C and D is an empty set if and

only if both C and D are empty sets.

4. (2) Note that the sets A − B, A ∩ B and B − A are disjoint Clearly, slope of
and their union is A ∪ B . Therefore, OS > slope of OA > slope of OB, so
n(A ∪ B) = n(A − B) + n(A ∩ B) + n(B − A) sin α sin π/6 3 α π

5. (1) If A = {a, b, c}, B = {b, c, d} and C = {a, d, c} 1 7π π

⇒ = tan( ) = tan( )
A − B = {a}, B ∩ C = {c, d} 6 6

Take modulus, both the side |(1 − i) n n

| = |2 |

6. (1) n(A × A) = n(A) ⋅ n(A) = 3

x + x + 1 = (x1 x2 − y1 y2 ) + i (x1 y2 + y1 x2 )
2
⇒ x (y − 1) + x(y + 1) + (y − 1) = 0 ⇒ Re (z1 z2 ) = Re (z1 ) Re (z2 ) − lm (z1 ) lm (z2 )

2 2
−(y + 1) ± √(y + 1) − 4(y − 1) 15. c + i

⇒ x = c − i
2(y − 1) 2
c + i c + i c − 1 + 2ic
−(y + 1) ± √−3y
2
+ 10y − 3 Then, a + ib = ⋅ =

2
2(y − 1) c − 1 2c
⇒ a = and b =

θ positive integers and the other is x + 2.
10
1 Since both the integers are larger than 5 i.e.

10 x > 5 and the sum of these two integers is less than 23
1
 i.e., x + (x + 2) < 23 . and a n = an−1 + an−2 , n > 2 (A)

That is n = 3 in equation (A)

2x + 2 < 23 a3 = a2 + a1 = 1 + 1 = 2

⇒ 2x < 23 − 2 an+1 a3 2
for n = 2, = = = 2 ;
⇒ 2x < 21 an a2 1

21
⇒ x < 30. (4) Since a, b, c are in GP i.e., b
2
= ac
2

That is x < 10.5. We have, 5 < x < 10.5. Since x is even, so taking log on both the sides, we get
possible values of x are 6, 8 and 10 . Thus the required 2 log b = log a + log c

possible pairs are (6, 8), (8, 10) and (10, 12). log a + log c
