MCQ' WITHONE CORRECTANSWER:s
1. (a) Consider the functionf(x) = ax3+ bx2+ cxon [0, 1]then being a polynomial. It is continuous on [0, 1],differentiable on (0, 1) andf(0) =f(1) = 0 [as given a + b + c = 0]
\ By Rolle's theorem (0,1)x$ such that
2( ) 0 3 2 0f x ax bx c= + + =Thus equation 3ax2+ 2bx + c = 0 has at least one rootin [0, 1].

ysin qasin2q+ asin qcos q= x cos q+ acos2q+ a qsin qcos q

\ (a) is not correct.Clearly does not pass through (0, 0).
It's distance from origin =2 2cos sin
aa=

8b+ 2 + a= 0 (2)Solving (1) and (2) we get a= 2, b= 1/2.
5. (d) Fory2= 4ax,y-axis is tangent at (0, 0), while forx2= 4ay, x-axis is tangent at (0, 0). Thus the two curvescut each other at right angles.

2sin (x+y) = 1 + sin (x+y)
sin (x+y) = 1Thus, cos (x+y) = 0
Using equation of curve and above result, we get,y= 0
sinx= 1 x= np+ (1)np/2, nZ x= p/2, 3p/2which belong to the interval [2p, 2p]Thus the points on curve at which tangets are parallel togiven line are (p/2, 0) and ( 3p/2, 0)The equation of tangent at (p/2, 0) is
10 ( / 2)
2y x- = - - p
2y= x+ p/2 2x+ 4y p= 0The equation of tangent at (3p/2, 0) is

2y x- = - + p
2y = x 3p/2 2x+ 4y+ 3p= 0Thus the required equations of tangents are
2x+ 4yp = 0 and 2x+ 4y+ 3p= 0.12. The given function is,
