Question 15.
Two number are in the ratio 3 : 5 is added to each of them. The new ratio will be 2 : 3 find the numbers.
Answer:
The numbers are in the ratio 3 : 5
Let the common ratio be x.
Therefore the numbers are 3x and 5x.
If 5 is added to both the numbers the ratio become 2:3.
∴ (3x + 5):(5x + 5)= 2 : 3
∴ 6x + 15 = 10x + 5
∴ x = 1
Thus, the numbers are 3x = 3 × 1 = 3 and 5x = 5 × 1 = 50.

Question 26.
Prove that “if each element of any row (or column) of a determinant is the sum of two terms. Then the determinant can be expressed as the sum of sum of two determinants.”
Answer:
Let A = \(\left( \begin{matrix} a+\alpha & b+\beta \\ c & d \end{matrix} \right) \) = ad + αd -bc – cβ = ad – bc + αd – cβ
\(\Delta =\left( \begin{matrix} a+\alpha & b+\beta \\ c & d \end{matrix} \right)\)
\(=\left( \begin{matrix} a & b \\ c & d \end{matrix} \right) +\left( \begin{matrix} \alpha & \beta \\ c & d \end{matrix} \right) =\Delta ‘\)
∴ Δ = Δ’. Hence the property is proved.

Question 27.
Find the number of permutations of the letters of the word ‘UNIQUE’.
(i) How many of them end with ‘QUE?
(ii) How many of begin with ‘U’ and end with ‘E’?
(iii) How many of them begin with a consonant?
Answer:
“UNIQUE” has6 letter; U = 2 times
∴ Total words = \(\frac{6 !}{2 !}\) ways

(i) The words end with “QUE”=3!
(ii) The work begin with V and end with E = 4!
(iii) The words begin with a consonant (2 consonants are there N and Q) = \(\frac{4 !}{2 !}\)

Question 28.
Two card are drawn from a pack of playing cards, one after the other, find the probability of getting a queen in first and second draw .If the cards are drawn.
(i) With replacement
(ii) Without replacement
Answer:
(i) with replace: there are 52 cards out of which 4 are queens
∴ Probability of getting a queen = \(\frac{4}{52}\)
The card is replaced before the second draw. Again a card is drawn, getting a queen in the second draw = \(\frac{4}{52}\)
∴ Probability of getting two queens = \(\frac{4}{52} \times \frac{4}{52}=\frac{1}{169}\)

(ii) without replacement: when one card is not replaced there are 51 cards for the second draw with 3 queens.
∴ Probability of getting queen in second draw = \(\frac{3}{51}\)
∴ P(both queens) = Queen in Ist draw x queen in second draw = \(\frac{4}{52} \times \frac{3}{51}=\frac{12}{2625}\)

Question 29.

⇒ 3 × 6 × 9 × x = 8 × 12 × 6 × 360
2nd PUC Basic Maths Previous Year Question Paper March 2017 - 15
∴ 8 carpenters earn 1,280 in 12 days working 6 hrs day.

Question 30.
Banker’s gain on a bill due 6 months at 4%p.a is 20. Find the true discount. Banker’s discount and bill amount.
Answer:
Given
BG = ₹ 20, r = 4% = 0.04, t = 6 Months = \(\frac{6}{12}=\frac{1}{2}\)
TD = ?, BD = ?, F = ?
W.K.T. = BG = TD. tr
20 = TD \(\frac{1}{2}\) x 0.04
40 = 0.04 TD ⇒ TD = \(\frac{40}{0.04}\) = ₹ 1000
BD = BG + TD; = 20 + 1000 = 1020

Question 31.
A man invests equal sums of money in 4%, 5% and 6% stock, each stock being at par. If the total income of the man is 3,600, find his total investment.
Answer:
Income from 1 st stock is \(\frac{4 x}{100} 2^{n d} \text { is } \frac{5 x}{100} 3^{n d} \text { is } \frac{6 x}{100}\)
Given total income = 3,600
2nd PUC Basic Maths Previous Year Question Paper March 2017 - 16
Hence his total investment = 3x = 3(24,000) = ₹72,000

Question 32.
A shopkeeper announces a discount of 10% on a washing machine set. The marked price of washing machine is 12000.how much will a customer have to pay for buying the washing machine set if the rate of sales tax is 8%?
(i) The VAT paid by the shopkeeper
(ii) Total amount that the consumer pays for the washing machine.
Answer:
Given Discount = 10%, m. p = ₹ 12,000, S.T = 8%
Amount paid = S.P =?
Discount of 10% on mp = 10% of ₹12,000
\(=\frac{10}{100} \times 12,000=71,200\)
New m.p=12,000 – 1,200 = ₹10,800
∴ Total amount to be paid = 10,800+8% of 10,800
\(=10,800+\frac{8}{100} \times 10,800\) = 10,800 + 864 = ₹11,664

Question 33.
Find Equation of the parabola whose vertex is at (0,0),axis is y axis and passes Through \(\left(\frac{1}{2}, 2\right)\) also find equation of directrix.
Answer:
It is given that vertex of the parabola V(0,0)and symmetric about y – axis so its equation is x2 = 4ay or x2 = – 4ay,
since the parabola passess through the point \(p\left(\frac{1}{2}, 2\right)\) so it lies in the 1st quadrant.
∴ It is an upward parabola x2 = 4ay
∴ It passess though the point p\(\left(\frac{1}{2}, 2\right)\) we have
\(\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{2}=4 \times a \times 2 \Rightarrow a=\frac{1}{32}\)
∴ Required parabola is x2 = 4 ⇒ x2 = \(\frac{1}{8} y\)

Question 34.

Given x = a (θ – sin θ),y = a (1 – cos θ)
Differentiate both w.r.t we get
\(\frac{d x}{d \theta}\) = a(1-cose) \(\frac{d y}{d \theta}\) = a(-(sinθ)) – asinθ

Question 35.
The surface aera of a spherical soap bubble increasing at the rate of 0.6 cm2/sec. find the rate at which its volume is increasing when its radius is 3 cm.
Answer:
\(\frac{d A}{d t}=0.6 \mathrm{cm}^{2} / \mathrm{sec}, \frac{d V}{d t}=? r=3 \mathrm{cm}\)
Surface Area = 4πr
\(\frac{d A}{d t}=4 \pi \cdot 2 r \frac{d r}{d t}=8 \pi r \frac{d r}{d t}\)
0.6 = 8 × π × 3 × \(\frac{d r}{d t}\)
\(\therefore \quad \frac{d r}{d t}=\frac{0.6}{24 \pi} \mathrm{cm} / \mathrm{sec}\)

Question 36.
Find the maximum or minimum value of the function f(x)= 9x2 + 12x + 2.
Answer:
Given f(x) = 9x2 + 12x + 2 i
∴ f'(x) = 18x + 12
f”'(x) = 19
For a function to be maximum or minimum f'(x) = 0
∴ 18x + 12 = 0 ⇒ x = \(\frac{-12}{18}=\frac{-2}{3}\)
Put x = \(\frac{-2}{3}\) in equation (3) f'(x) = 18 > 0
∴ f(x) is minimum at x = \(\frac{-2}{3}\) and minimum value is f \(\left(\frac{-2}{3}\right)\)

∴ Minimum value = -2.

Put x = 2, 6 + 2 = A(2 + 3)2 + B(0)+C (0)
8 = 25A ⇒ A = \(\frac{8}{25}\)
Put X=-3, -9 + 2 = A(0) + B(0) +C(-5)

Question 42.
₹ 5,625 is dividend among A,B and C so that A receives one half as much as B and C together receive and B receives one fourth of what A and C together receive. Find the share of A,b and c.
Answer:
Given A + B + C = 5625 … (1)
And A = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) (B + C) ⇒ 2A = B + C … (2)
Also B = \(\frac { 1 }{ 4 }\)(A + C) ⇒ 4B = A+C … (3)
From 1 and 2 we have
A + B + C = 5625 ⇒ A + 2A = 5625
⇒ 3A = 5625
⇒ A = ₹1875
Again from 1 and 3 we get B+ 4B = 5625
⇒ 5B = 5625
⇒ B = ₹1125
∴ from eqn (1) c = 5625 – A – B = 5625 – 1875.1125 = 2625 ₹
∴ A’s share is 1875 B’s share is 1125, c’s share 2625

= 15 + 5C1 (0.01) + 5C2 (0.01)2 + 5C3 (0.01)3 + 5C4 (0.01)4 + 5C5 (0.01)5
= 1 + 5(0.01) + 10(0.001) + 10(0.000001)+ neglect the next terms
= 1 + 0.05 + 0.001 + 0.00001
= 1.0510 correct up to 4 decimals

Question 50.
(a) If is measured in radians, then prove that \(\lim _{\theta \rightarrow 0} \frac{\sin \theta}{\theta}=1\)
Answer:

Let ‘0’ the centre of unit circle, assume that θ is measured in positive radians

Fromn the figure, we have area of ∆AOB = area of sector AOB = area of ∆AOD
2nd PUC Basic Maths Previous Year Question Paper March 2017 - 38
∴ Area of sector = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\) (radius)2 × angle in radians
From the triangle DOA, tan θ = \(\frac{\mathrm{DA}}{\mathrm{OA}}\) ∴DA = rtan θ
From the triangle BOC, sin θ = \(\frac{\mathrm{BC}}{\mathrm{OB}}\) ∴ BC = rsin θ
(1) becomes
⇒ BC ≤ θ ≤ DA
⇒ sin θ ≤ θ ≤ tan θ
Dividing by sin θ

(b) The angles of elevation of the summit of a hill from the top and bottom of a building are 30° and 60° respectively. If the height of the building is ‘H’m, show that the height of the hill is \(\frac{3 h}{2}\)
Answer:
Let AB represents the height of the hill
2nd PUC Basic Maths Previous Year Question Paper March 2017 - 31
And CD represents the height of the tower
By the given data (AOB = 60°,|ACE = 30°
2nd PUC Basic Maths Previous Year Question Paper March 2017 - 32
DC = h
From the rt angled ∆ABD we have
Tan 60° = \(\frac{A B}{B D} \Rightarrow \sqrt{3}=\frac{A B}{B D} \Rightarrow B D=\frac{A B}{\sqrt{3}}\) … (1)
Again from the rt angled ∆AEC
Tan 30 = \(\frac{A F}{E C}=\frac{A E}{B D}\)
\(\Rightarrow \quad \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{A B-B E}{B D}=\frac{A B-h}{B D}\)
BD = √3(AB – h) … (2)
From 1 and 2 we have
\(\frac{A B}{\sqrt{3}}\) = √3(AB – h)
AB = 3(AB – h); AB = 3AB – 3h; 3h = 3AB – AB
⇒ AB = \(\frac{3 h}{2}\)
∴ The height of the hill = \(\frac{3 h}{2}\)
