DIRECTOR’S MESSAGE
It is with profound delight and utmost pride that I announce the publication of our
study material for class XII (MATHEMATICS) for the session 2023-24. It’s my
firm belief that access to quality education should know no boundaries,
transcending social and economic constraints. Our collective vision is to
empower all students with the tools for success and intellectual growth.
With their steadfast dedication PGT-MATHEMATICS of Bangalore, Chennai,

Ernakulam & Hyderabad regions of Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan have
invested their knowledge, expertise, and passion into meticulously crafting these
study materials to complement the classroom learning experience of the students.
These materials serve as invaluable aids for self-study since they are
comprehensive, well-structured, and presented in a manner that is easy to

CHAPTER : RELATIONS AND FUNCTIONS
SYLLABUS: Types of relations: Reflexive, Symmetric, transitive and equivalence relations.
One to one and onto functions.
Definitions and Formulae:
➢ Types of Relations:
• Empty Relation: A relation 𝑅 in a set 𝐴 is called empty relation, if no element of 𝐴

is related to any element of 𝐴, i.e., 𝑅 = ∅ ⊂ 𝐴 × 𝐴.
• Universal Relation: A relation 𝑅 in a set 𝐴 is called universal relation, if each

element of 𝐴 is related to every element of 𝐴, i.e. , 𝑅 = 𝐴 × 𝐴.
• Trivial Relations: Both the empty relation and the universal relation are sometimes
called trivial relations.
• A relation R in a set A is called
a) Reflexive, if (𝑥, 𝑥) ∈ 𝑅 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑦 𝑥 ∈ 𝐴
b) Symmetric, 𝑖𝑓 (𝑥, 𝑦) ∈ 𝑅 𝑖𝑚𝑝𝑙𝑖𝑒𝑠 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑡 (𝑦, 𝑥) ∈ 𝑅 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑎𝑙𝑙 𝑥, 𝑦 ∈ 𝐴
c) Transitive, 𝑖𝑓 (𝑥, 𝑦) ∈ 𝑅 𝑎𝑛𝑑 (𝑦, 𝑧) ∈ 𝑅 implies that (𝑥, 𝑧) ∈ 𝑅 for all
𝑥, 𝑦, 𝑧 ∈ 𝐴
• If A is a finite set with n elements,then

2
i) Total number of relations in A=2𝑛 .
2 −𝑛
ii) Total number of reflexive relations in A = 2𝑛 .
𝑛(𝑛+1)
iii) Total number of symmetric relations in A = 2 2 .
• Equivalence Relation:𝐴 relation 𝑅 in a set 𝐴 is said to be an equivalence relation if

𝑅 is reflexive, symmetric and transitive.
➢ Equivalence Class: Let 𝑅 be an equivalence relation on a non-empty set 𝐴 and 𝑎 ∈ 𝐴.

Then the set of all those elements of 𝐴 which are related to 𝑎, is called the
equivalence class determined by 𝑎 and is denoted by [𝑎].i.e[𝑎] = {𝑥 ∈ 𝐴 ∶ (𝑥, 𝑎) ∈ 𝑅}
➢ Types of Functions:
• One-One (Injective) Function: A function 𝑓 ∶ 𝑋 → 𝑌 is defined to be one-one

(or injective), if the images of distinct elements of X under f are distinct, i.e., for
every 𝑥1 , 𝑥2 ∈ 𝑋, 𝑓(𝑥1 ) = 𝑓( 𝑥2 ) 𝑖𝑚𝑝𝑙𝑖𝑒𝑠 𝑥1 = 𝑥2 . Otherwise, f is called many-
one.
4
• Onto (Surjective) Function: A function 𝑓 ∶ 𝑋 → 𝑌 is said to be onto (or
surjective), if every element of 𝑌 is the image of some element of 𝑋 under f. i.e., for
every 𝑦 ∈ 𝑌, there exists an element 𝑥 𝑖𝑛 𝑋 such that 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑦.
NOTE: 𝒇: 𝑿 → 𝒀 is onto if and only if Range of 𝒇 = 𝑪𝒐𝒅𝒐𝒎𝒂𝒊𝒏.
• Bijective Function: A function 𝑓 ∶ 𝑋 → 𝑌 is said to be bijective, if 𝑓 is both one-

one and onto.
• If A and B are two finite sets having 𝑚 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑛 elements respectively, then
i) Number of functions from A to B is 𝑛𝑚 .
𝑛𝑝𝑚 , 𝑖𝑓 𝑚 ≤ 𝑛
ii) Number of one-one functions from A to 𝐵 = {
0 , 𝑖𝑓 𝑚 > 𝑛
iii) If the function is bijective i. e both one-one and onto then 𝑚 = 𝑛.

Reason(R): A relation R on the set A is reflexive if (𝑎, 𝑎) ∈ 𝑅, ∀ 𝑎 ∈ 𝐴
Answer: A
Solution:A relation R on the set A is reflexive if (𝑥, 𝑥) ∈ 𝑅, ∀ 𝑥 ∈ 𝐴
So R is true
For , ∀ 𝑥 ∈ 𝐴 (𝑥, 𝑥) ∈ 𝑅 so R is reflexive and thus A is true.
Therefore answer is A.
5. Assertion (A): A relation 𝑅 = { (1,1), (1,2), (2,2), (2,3)(3,3)} defined on the set
𝐴 = {1,2,3} is symmetric
Reason(R): A relation R on the set A is symmetric if (𝑎, 𝑏) ∈ 𝑅 ⟹ (𝑏, 𝑎) ∈ 𝑅

(a, c) ∈ R
Answer:C
Solution: A relation R on the set A transitive iff (a, b) ∈ R and (a, c) ∈ R ⟹
(a, c) ∈ R.
So R is false
As the condition of transitivity is satisfied, so A is true.
7. Assertion (A): 𝐴 = {1,2,3}, 𝐵 = {4,5,6,7}, 𝑓 = {(1,4), (2,5), (3,6)} is a function
from A to B.Then 𝑓 𝑖𝑠 𝑜𝑛𝑒 − 𝑜𝑛𝑒

images in B.
Answer:A
Solution: A function f is one –one if distinct elements of A have distinct images in
B.
So R is true
As distinct elements of Set A have distinct images in the set B.
So, A is true
Thus A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
8. Assertion (A): Consider the function 𝑓: 𝑅 → 𝑅 defined by 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑥 3. Then 𝑓 is

one-one
Reason(R): Every polynomial function is one-one
Answer: C
Solution: Every polynomial function is not one-one as 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑥2 is not one one.
So R is false.

So A is true
Thus A is true but R is false.
9
9. Assertion (A): If 𝑋 = { 0, 1, 2 } and the function 𝑓: 𝑋 → 𝑌 defined by
𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑥 2−2 is surjection then 𝑌 = { −2, −1, 0,2 }

surjective if for all 𝑦 ∈ 𝑌 there exists 𝑥 ∈ 𝑋 such thtat 𝑦 = 𝑓(𝑥)
So R is true.
There is no 𝑥 𝑖𝑛 𝑋 such that 𝑓(𝑥) = 0, so range of 𝑓 is not equal to the codomain,
i.e 𝑓 is not surjective
So, A is false.
Thus A is false but R is true.
10. Assertion (A): A, B are two sets such that 𝑛(𝐴) = 𝑚 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑛(𝐵) = 𝑛. The number
of one-one functions from A to B is npm ,if 𝑛 ≥ 𝑚

Solution: for each 𝑎 ∈ 𝑅, 𝑎 ≤ 𝑎 is true. Given relation is reflexive.

1. Show that the relation R in the set {1, 2, 3} given by R = {(1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3), (1, 2),
(2, 3)} is reflexive but neither symmetric nor transitive.
Solution: Let A = {1, 2, 3}
The relation R is defined on A is given by R = {(1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3), (1, 2), (2, 3)}
Now, we have to show that R is reflexive but neither symmetric nor transitive.
Reflexive:
Clearly, (𝑎, 𝑎) ∈ 𝑅 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑦 𝑎 ∈ 𝐴
Hence, R is reflexive
Symmetric:
Clearly, (1, 2) ∈ 𝑅, 𝑏𝑢𝑡 (2, 1) ∉ 𝑅
Thus, for every (𝑎, 𝑏) ∈ 𝑅, (𝑏, 𝑎) ∉ 𝑅
Hence, R is not symmetric
Transitive:
For (1, 2) ∈ 𝑅 and (2, 3) ∈ 𝑅 ⇒ (1, 3)∉ 𝑅
Thus, (𝑎, 𝑏) ∈ 𝑅 𝑎𝑛𝑑 (𝑏, 𝑐) ∈ 𝑅 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑛 (𝑎, 𝑐) ) ∉ 𝑅
Therefore, R is reflexive but neither symmetric nor transitive.
2. Show that the relation R in the set {1, 2, 3, 4} given by
R = {(1, 2), (2, 2), (1, 1), (4,4), (1, 3), (3, 3), (3, 2)} is reflexive and transitive but not
symmetric.
Solution: Let A = {1, 2, 3, 4}
The relation R is defined on A is given by R = {(1, 2), (2, 2), (1, 1), (4, 4), (1, 3), (3,
3), (3, 2)}
Now, we show that the relation R is reflexive and transitive but not symmetric.
Reflexive:
Clearly, (𝑎, 𝑎) ∈ 𝑅 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑦 𝑎 ∈ 𝐴
Hence, R is reflexive.
Symmetric:
Clearly, (1, 2) ∈ 𝑅, 𝑏𝑢𝑡 (2, 1) ∉ 𝑅
Hence, R is not symmetric,
Transitive:
For every (𝑎, 𝑏) ∈ 𝑅 𝑎𝑛𝑑 (𝑏, 𝑐) ∈ 𝑅 ⇒ (𝑎, 𝑐) ∈ 𝑅
Hence, R is transitive.
Therefore, R is reflexive and transitive but not symmetric.
3. Check whether the relation R defined in the set A= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6} as
𝑅 = {(𝑎, 𝑏): 𝑏 = 𝑎 + 1, 𝑎, 𝑏 ∈ 𝐴} is reflexive, symmetric or transitive.
Solution: Let A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

R be the relation defined as 𝑅 = {(𝑎, 𝑏): 𝑏 = 𝑎 + 1}
i.e; R = {(1, 2), (2, 3), (3, 4), (4, 5), (5, 6)}
To check R is reflexive:
Clearly, (𝑎, 𝑎) ∉ 𝑅 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑦 𝑎 ∈ 𝐴
Hence, R is not reflexive
To check R is symmetric:
Clearly, (1, 2) ∈ 𝑅, 𝑏𝑢𝑡 (2, 1) ∉ 𝑅
13
To check R is Transitive:
Take (1, 2) ∈ 𝑅, 𝑎𝑛𝑑 (2, 3) ∈ 𝑅 𝑏𝑢𝑡 (1, 3) ∉ 𝑅
Therefore, R is neither reflexive, nor symmetric and nor transitive.
4. Determine whether the relation R in the set 𝐴 = {1, 2, 3, … ,13, 14} defined as
𝑅 = {(𝑥, 𝑦): 3𝑥 – 𝑦 = 0, 𝑥, 𝑦 ∈ 𝐴} is reflexive or symmetric or transitive.
Solution: Given 𝐴 = {1, 2, 3, … ,13, 14}
The relation R is defined as R = {(1, 3), (2, 6), (3, 9), (4, 12)}
Clearly, (𝑎, 𝑎) ∉ 𝑅 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑦 𝑎 ∈ 𝐴
Clearly, (1, 3) ∈ 𝑅, 𝑏𝑢𝑡 (3, 1) ∉ 𝑅
Thus, For every (𝑎, 𝑏) ∈ 𝑅, (𝑏, 𝑎) ∉ 𝑅
Take (1, 3) ∈ 𝑅, 𝑎𝑛𝑑 (3, 9) ∈ 𝑅 𝑏𝑢𝑡 (1, 9) ∉ 𝑅
Therefore, R is neither reflexive, nor symmetric and nor transitive.
5. Determine whether the relation R in the set N of natural numbers defined as
𝑅 = {(𝑥, 𝑦): 𝑦 = 𝑥 + 5 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑥 < 4} is reflexive, symmetric or transitive.
Solution: Given N = Set of all natural numbers.
The relation R is defined on the set N as 𝑅 = {(𝑥, 𝑦): 𝑦 = 𝑥 + 5 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑥 < 4}
i.e; R = {(1, 6), (2, 7), (3, 8)}
Clearly, (𝑎, 𝑎) ∉ 𝑅 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑦 𝑎 ∈ 𝑁
Clearly, (1, 6) ∈ 𝑅, 𝑏𝑢𝑡 (6, 1) ∉ 𝑅
Thus, For every (𝑎, 𝑏) ∈ 𝑅, (𝑏, 𝑎) ∉ 𝑅
For transitive, 𝑤𝑒 ℎ𝑎𝑣𝑒 𝑡𝑜 𝑠ℎ𝑜𝑤 𝑓𝑜𝑟 (𝑎, 𝑏) ∈ 𝑅 𝑎𝑛𝑑 (𝑏, 𝑐) ∈ 𝑅 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑛 (𝑎, 𝑐) ∈ 𝑅
But in this case, in the relation R, for every order pair (a, b), there exists no order pair
as (b, c).
In such a case, R is also transitive.
Therefore, the relation R is neither reflexive nor symmetric but transitive.
6. Prove that the Greatest Integer Function 𝑓 ∶ 𝑅 → 𝑅, given by 𝑓(𝑥) = [𝑥], is neither
one-one nor onto, where [x] denotes the greatest integer less than or equal to 𝑥.
Solution: f : R → R, given by f(x) = [x]
14
Now, we prove that f is neither one-one nor onto
To Prove f is not one-one:
𝐶𝑙𝑒𝑎𝑟𝑙𝑦, 𝑤𝑒 ℎ𝑎𝑣𝑒 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑓(1.1) = [1.1] = 1
𝑓(1.2) = [1.2] = 1, … … … … … , 𝑓(1.9) = [1.9] = 1
From this, we conclude that different elements in the domain of f have same images
in the co-domain of 𝑓.
Hence, f is not one-one function.
To Prove f is not onto:
𝑤𝑒 𝑘𝑛𝑜𝑤 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑐𝑜𝑑𝑜𝑚𝑎𝑖𝑛 𝑜𝑓 𝑓 = 𝑅 (𝑠𝑒𝑡 𝑜𝑓 𝑎𝑙𝑙 𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑙 𝑛𝑢𝑚𝑏𝑒𝑟𝑠)
𝑅𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝑓 = 𝑍 (𝑠𝑒𝑡 𝑜𝑓 𝑎𝑙𝑙 𝑖𝑛𝑡𝑒𝑔𝑒𝑟𝑠)
𝐶𝑙𝑒𝑎𝑟𝑙𝑦, 𝑐𝑜𝑑𝑜𝑚𝑎𝑖𝑛 𝑜𝑓 𝑓 ≠ 𝑅𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝑓
Hence, f is not onto.
Therefore, f is neither one-one nor onto.
7. Show that the Modulus Function f : R → R, given by 𝑓(𝑥) = | 𝑥 |, is neither one-one
nor onto, where | 𝑥 |𝑖𝑠 𝑥, if 𝑥 is positive or 0 and | 𝑥 |𝑖𝑠 – 𝑥, 𝑖𝑓 𝑥 is negative.
𝑥, 𝑖𝑓 𝑥 ≥ 0
Solution: 𝑓: 𝑅 ⟶ 𝑅 𝑖𝑠 𝑔𝑖𝑣𝑒𝑛 𝑏𝑦𝑓(𝑥) = |𝑥| = {
−𝑥, 𝑖𝑓 𝑥 < 0
Now, we prove that f is neither one-one nor onto
𝐶𝑙𝑒𝑎𝑟𝑙𝑦, 𝑤𝑒 ℎ𝑎𝑣𝑒 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑓(1) = 1 = 𝑓(−1)
𝑓(2) = 2 = 𝑓(−2) 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑠𝑜 𝑜𝑛.
From this, we conclude that different elements in the domain of 𝑓 have same images in
the co-domain of 𝑓.
Hence, 𝑓 is not one-one function.
𝑅𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝑓 = 𝑅 + (𝑠𝑒𝑡 𝑜𝑓 𝑎𝑙𝑙 𝑛𝑜𝑛 − 𝑛𝑒𝑔𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑣𝑒 𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑙 𝑛𝑢𝑚𝑏𝑒𝑟𝑠)
8. 1, 𝑖𝑓 𝑥 > 0

1, 𝑖𝑓 𝑥 > 0
Solution: The function 𝑓: 𝑅 ⟶ 𝑅 𝑖𝑠 𝑔𝑖𝑣𝑒𝑛 𝑏𝑦𝑓(𝑥) = { 𝑖𝑓 𝑥 = 0
0,
−1, 𝑖𝑓 𝑥 < 0
Now, we prove that f is neither one-one nor onto.

𝐶𝑙𝑒𝑎𝑟𝑙𝑦, 𝑤𝑒 ℎ𝑎𝑣𝑒 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑓(1) = 1, 𝑓(2) = 1, 𝑓(3) = 1, 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑠𝑜 𝑜𝑛.
𝑓(−1) = −1, 𝑓(−2) = −2, 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑠𝑜 𝑜𝑛.
From this, we conclude that different elements in the domain of f have same images in
the co-domain of f.
Hence, f is not one-one function.
𝑅𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝑓 = {−1, 0, 1}
Therefore, f is neither one-one nor onto.

Solution: 𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑓𝑢𝑛𝑐𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝒇: 𝑵 ⟶ 𝑵 𝑔𝑖𝑣𝑒𝑛 𝑏𝑦 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑥 2 + 𝑥 + 1
Now we prove that f is one-one but not onto.
To prove f is one-one:
Let 𝑥1 , 𝑥2 ∈ 𝑁 𝑠𝑢𝑐ℎ 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑓(𝑥1 ) = 𝑓(𝑥2 )
⇒ 𝑥1 2 + 𝑥1 + 1 = 𝑥2 2 + 𝑥2 + 1
⇒ 𝑥1 2 − 𝑥2 2 + 𝑥1 − 𝑥2 = 0
⇒ (𝑥1 2 − 𝑥2 2 ) + (𝑥1 − 𝑥2 ) = 0
⇒ (𝑥1 + 𝑥2 )(𝑥1 − 𝑥2 ) + (𝑥1 − 𝑥2 ) = 0
⇒ (𝑥1 − 𝑥2 )[ (𝑥1 + 𝑥2 ) + 1] = 0
⇒ (𝑥1 − 𝑥2 ) = 0 (∵ [(𝑥1 + 𝑥2 ) + 1] > 0 𝑎𝑠𝑥1 , 𝑥2 𝑖𝑛 𝑑𝑜𝑚𝑎𝑖𝑛 𝑵 )
⇒ 𝑥1 = 𝑥2
Hence, f is one-one
To prove f is onto:
we have 𝑓(1) = 3, 𝑓(2) = 7 and so on.
Thus, 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑥 2 + 𝑥 + 1 ≥ 3 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑦 𝑥 ∈ 𝑁 (𝑑𝑜𝑚𝑎𝑖𝑛)
Clearly, 𝑓(𝑥)𝑛𝑜𝑡 𝑡𝑎𝑘𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑣𝑎𝑙𝑢𝑒𝑠 1 𝑎𝑛𝑑 2
Thus, the every element of co-domain in N has no pre-image in the domain N
Hence, 𝑓 is not onto.

Solution:
𝑓: 𝑊 → 𝑊 𝑏𝑒 𝑑𝑒𝑓𝑖𝑛𝑒𝑑 𝑎𝑠 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑥 − 1, 𝑖𝑓 𝑥 𝑖𝑠 𝑜𝑑𝑑 and
16
𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑥 + 1, 𝑖𝑓 𝑥 𝑖𝑠 𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑛.
To Prove 𝒇 is one-one:
Case I: when 𝑥1 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑥2 are even number
Now, consider 𝑓(𝑥1 ) = 𝑓(𝑥2 )
⇒ 𝑥1 + 1 = 𝑥2 + 1
⇒ 𝑥1 = 𝑥2
Hence, 𝑓 is one-one
Case II: when 𝑥1 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑥2 are odd number
Now, consider 𝑓(𝑥1 ) = 𝑓(𝑥2 )
⇒ 𝑥1 − 1 = 𝑥2 − 1
⇒ 𝑥1 = 𝑥2
Hence, 𝑓 is one-one.
Case III: when 𝑥1 𝑖𝑠 𝑜𝑑𝑑 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑥2 is even number
Here, 𝑥1 ≠ 𝑥2
Also, in this case 𝑓(𝑥1 ) 𝑖𝑠 𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑛 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑓(𝑥2 )𝑖𝑠 𝑜𝑑𝑑.
Hence, 𝑓(𝑥1 ) ≠ 𝑓(𝑥2 )
Therefore, 𝑓 is one-one.
To Prove 𝒇 is onto:
For every even number ‘𝑦’ in co-domain there exists odd number 𝑦 + 1 in domain
and for every odd number ‘𝑦’ in co-domain there exists even number 𝑦 − 1 in
domain such that 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑦.
Hence, f is onto
Therefore, f is both one-one and onto.

1. Let R be the relation in the set Z of integers given by

𝑅 = {(𝑎, 𝑏): 2 𝑑𝑖𝑣𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑠 𝑎 – 𝑏}. Show that the relation R equivalence? Write the
equivalence class [0].
Solution :
Given R = {(a, b) : 2 divides a – b}
For equivance relation we have to check :
(i) Reflexive:
If (𝑎 − 𝑏) is divisible by 2 then,
⇒ (𝑎 − 𝑎) = 0 is also divisible by 2
⇒ (𝑎, 𝑎) ∈ 𝑅
Hence R is Reflexive ∀ a,b ∈ Z
(ii) Symmetric:
If (𝑎 − 𝑏) is divisible by 2 then,
⇒ (𝑏 − 𝑎) = −(𝑎 − 𝑏) is also divisible by 2
⇒ (𝑎, 𝑏) ∈ 𝑅 𝑎𝑛𝑑 (𝑏, 𝑎) ∈ 𝑅
Hence R is Symmetric ∀ a,b ∈ Z
(iii) Transitive:
If (𝑎 − 𝑏)𝑎𝑛𝑑 (𝑏 − 𝑐) are divisible by 2 then,
⇒ 𝑎 − 𝑐 = (𝑎 − 𝑏) + (𝑏 − 𝑐) is also divisible by 2
⇒ (a,b) ∈ R, (b,c) ∈ R and (a,c) ∈ R.
Hence R is Transitive ∀ a,b,c ∈ Z
⇒ As Relation R is satisfyingReflexive , Symmetric and Transitive.
Hence R is an equivalence relation.
Now equivalence class [0]
𝑅 = {(𝑎, 𝑏): 2 𝑑𝑖𝑣𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑠 (𝑎 − 𝑏)}⇒ (𝒂 − 𝒃) 𝑖𝑠 𝑎 𝑚𝑢𝑙𝑡𝑖𝑝𝑙𝑒 𝑜𝑓 2.
To find equivalence class 0, put b=0
So, (a−0) is a multiple of 2
⇒ a is a multiple of 2
So, In the set Z of integers, all the multiple of 2 will come in equivalence class [0]
Hence, equivalence class [0] = {2𝑥 ∶ 𝑥 ∈ 𝑍 }
1.2. S Show that the relation R defined by (𝑎, 𝑏)𝑅 (𝑐, 𝑑) ⇔ 𝑎 + 𝑑 = 𝑏 + 𝑐 on the set
N × N is an equivalence relation. Also, find the equivalence classes [(2,3)] and

Solution:
Given that, R be the relation in N × N defined by (a, b) R (c, d)
if 𝑎 + 𝑑 = 𝑏 + 𝑐 for (a, b), (c, d) in N × N.
Reflexive:
Let (a, b) R (a, b) ⇒ a + b = b + a
which is true since addition is commutative on N.
⇒ R is reflexive.
Symmetric:
Let (a, b) R (c, d) ⇒ a + d = b + c
⇒b+c=a+d⇒c+b=d+a
⇒ (c, d) R (a, b) ⇒ R is symmetric.
Transitive
⇒ (a, b) R (e, f) for (a, b), (c, d),(e, f) in N × N.
Let (a, b) R (c, d) and (c, d) R (e, f)
⇒ a + d = b + c and c + f = d + e
⇒ (a + d) – (d + e) = (b + c) – (c + f) ⇒ a - e = b - f ⇒ a + f = b + e
⇒ (a, b) R (e, f) ⇒ R is transitive.
18
Hence, R is an equivalence relation.
Equivalence Classes:
The equivalence class of (a, b) is the set of all pairs (c, d) such that a + d = b + c.
⇒𝑎– 𝑏 = 𝑐 − 𝑑
The equivalence classes of [(2,3)] is
Put 𝑎 = 2 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑏 = 3
c–d=2–3
d–c=1
[(2,3)] = {(c,d) : d – c = 1 ∀ c,d ∈ Z }
The equivalence classes of [(1,3)] is

c–d =1–3 ⇒d–c=2
[(1,3)] = {(c,d) : d – c = 2 ∀c,d ∈ Z }
3. Show that the relation R in the set of ℝ real numbers, defined as
𝑅 = {(𝑎, 𝑏): 𝑎 ≤ 𝑏 3 } is neither reflexive nor symmetric nor transitive.
Solution: Given ℝ = 𝑠𝑒𝑡 𝑜𝑓 𝑎𝑙𝑙 𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑙 𝑛𝑢𝑚𝑏𝑒𝑟𝑠

The relation R in the set ℝ defined as 𝑅 = {(𝑎, 𝑏): 𝑎 ≤ 𝑏 3 }
Now we prove that R is neither reflexive nor symmetric nor transitive.
To show R is not reflexive:
We know that 𝑎 ≤ 𝑎3 is not true for any positive real number less than 1.
1 1 1 3 1
For example, 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑎 = 2 , 2 ≰ (2) = 8
Thus, clearly, (𝑎, 𝑎) ∉ 𝑅 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑦 𝑎 ∈ ℝ
To show R is not symmetric:
Take a = 1 and b = 2
Now, 𝑎 = 1 ≤ 23 = 𝑏 3 ⇒ 𝑎 ≤ 𝑏 3 ⇒ (𝑎, 𝑏) ∈ 𝑅
But, 𝑏 = 2 ≰ (1)3 = 1 = 𝑎 ⇒ 𝑏 ≰ 𝑎2 ⇒ (𝑏, 𝑎) ∉ 𝑅
Thus, (𝑎, 𝑏) ∈ 𝑅 ⇒ (𝑏, 𝑎) ∉ 𝑅
Hence, R is not symmetric.
To show R is not transitive:
Let us take a = 10, b = 4, c = 2
(𝑎, 𝑏) ∈ 𝑅 = (10, 4) ∈ 𝑅 𝑎𝑠 10 ≤ 43 = 64
(𝑏, 𝑐) ∈ 𝑅 = (4, 2) ∈ 𝑅 𝑎𝑠 4 ≤ 23 = 8
But, (𝑎, 𝑐) ∉ 𝑅 𝑎𝑠 10 ≰ 23 = 8
Thus, (𝑎, 𝑏) ∈ 𝑅 𝑎𝑛𝑑 (𝑏, 𝑐) ∈ 𝑅 ⇒ (𝑎, 𝑐) ∉ 𝑅
Hence, R is not tranitive.
Therefore, the relation R is neither reflexive, nor symmetric nor transitive.
4. Let A = {1, 2, 3, ……., 9} and (𝑎, 𝑏)𝑅 (𝑐, 𝑑)𝑖𝑓

𝑎𝑑 = 𝑏𝑐 𝑓𝑜𝑟 (𝑎, 𝑏), (𝑐, 𝑑) 𝑖𝑛 A×A. Prove that R is an equivalence relation.
Solution: Given A = {1, 2, 3, ……., 9}
The relation R is defined as (𝑎, 𝑏)𝑅 (𝑐, 𝑑)𝑖𝑓 𝑎𝑑 = 𝑏𝑐 𝑓𝑜𝑟 (𝑎, 𝑏), (𝑐, 𝑑)𝑖𝑛 A × A
Now, we prove that R is an equivalence relation.
To show R is reflexive:
Clearly, 𝑎𝑏 = 𝑏𝑎 for every a, b ∈ A
⇒ (𝑎, 𝑏)𝑅(𝑎, 𝑏) 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑟𝑦 (𝑎, 𝑏) ∈ A × A
Hence, R is reflexive.
To show R is symmetric:
Let (a, b) R (c, d)
19
⇒ 𝑎𝑑 = 𝑏𝑐
⇒ 𝑑𝑎 = 𝑐𝑏
⇒ 𝑐𝑏 = 𝑑𝑎
⇒ (c, d)R (a, b)
Hence, R is symmetric
To show R is transitive:
Let (a, b) R (c, d) ⇒ 𝑎𝑑 = 𝑏𝑐 …….. (1)
And (c, d) R (e, f) ⇒ 𝑐𝑓 = 𝑑𝑒 ………. (2)
Multiply (1) and (2), we get
(𝑎𝑑) (𝑐𝑓) = (𝑏𝑐)(𝑑𝑒)
⇒ 𝑎𝑓 = 𝑏𝑒
⇒ (𝑎, 𝑏)𝑅(𝑒, 𝑓)
Hence, R is transitive.
Therefore, R is reflexive, symmetric and transitive.
Hence, R is an equivalence relation.

CASE STUDY QUESTIONS
I Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow:
An organisation conducted a bike race under two different categories boys and girls
.Among all the participants finally three from category 1(boys) and two from
category 2(girls) were selected for the final race. Let B={b1,b2,b3},G={g1,g2},
where B represents the set of boys selected and G the set of girls who were selected
for the final race.
1. How many relations are possible from B to G?(1mark)

2. How many functions can be formed from B to G? (1mark)
3. How many one-one functions be formed from B to G? justify your answer.
(2marks)
Solution:
(1) n(B)= 3, n(G)=2
Number of relations from B to G is 26 ,because every relation is a subset of
B×G and there are 3×2=6 elements in B×G.
(2 )Number of functions= 23=8.
(3) Number of one-one functions = 0 as n(B) > n(G).

Justify
Solution:
(a) Yes, it is equivalence.
The relation is reflexive,symmetric and transitive hence it is Equivalence.
(b) If 𝑛(𝐴) = 𝑚, 𝑛(𝐵) = 𝑛, then the number of functions from A to B is 𝑛m
Ans: 62
(c) As (1,1) ∉ 𝑅 It is not reflexive

As (1,2) ∈ 𝑅 but (2,1) ∉ 𝑅 it is not symmetric
As (1,3) ∈ 𝑅 and (3, 4) ∈ 𝑅 but (1,4) ∉ 𝑅 ,it is not transitive
Hence none.
(d) No, (1,2) ∈ 𝑅 but (2,1) ∉ 𝑅 it is not symmetric

(c) Let 𝑅: 𝐴 → 𝐵, 𝑅 = {(𝑎1 , 𝑏1 ), (𝑎2 , 𝑏1 ), (𝑎3 , 𝑏3 ), (𝑎4 , 𝑏2 ), (𝑎5 , 𝑏2 )}, then is 𝑅
One-one and onto ? Justify ( 2marks)
Solution:
(a) 220
If 𝑛(𝐴) = 𝑛 then number of reflexive relations that can be
2
defined on A is 2𝑛 −𝑛 .here 𝑛(𝐴) = 5.
(b) Yes the relation is equivalence.
As the relation is reflexive,symmetric and transitive.
(c) No R is not one-one and onto
Distinct elements of A have same image 𝑎1 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑎2 are having same
Image 𝑏1 ,so R is not one-one.
𝑏4 is not having pre-image ,so R is not onto.

➢ OPERATION OF MATRICES:
ADDITION OF MATRICES: Let 𝐴 = [𝑎𝑖𝑗 ]𝑚×𝑛 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝐵 = [𝑏𝑖𝑗 ]𝑚×𝑛 be two
matrices of the same order. Then 𝐴 + 𝐵 is defined to be the matrix of order of 𝑚 × 𝑛

obtained by adding corresponding elements of 𝐴 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝐵
i.e 𝐴 + 𝐵 = [𝑎𝑖𝑗 + 𝑏𝑖𝑗 ]𝑚×𝑛
35
DIFFERENCE OF MATRICES: Let 𝐴 = [𝑎𝑖𝑗 ]𝑚×𝑛 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝐵 = [𝑏𝑖𝑗 ]𝑚×𝑛 be two
matrices of the same order. Then 𝐴 − 𝐵 is defined to be the matrix of order of 𝑚 × 𝑛

obtained by subtracting corresponding elements of 𝐴 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝐵
i.e 𝐴 − 𝐵 = [𝑎𝑖𝑗 − 𝑏𝑖𝑗 ]𝑚×𝑛
MULTIPLICATION OF MATRICES: The product of two matrices 𝐴 and 𝐵 is

defined if the number of columns of 𝐴 is equal to the number of rows of 𝐵.
Let = [𝑎𝑖𝑗 ]𝑚×𝑛 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝐵 = [𝑏𝑗𝑘 ]𝑛×𝑝 . Then the product of the matrices 𝐴 and 𝐵
is the matrix 𝐶 of order 𝑚 × 𝑝

➢ TRANSPOSE OF A MATRIX: If 𝐴 = [𝑎𝑖𝑗 ]𝑚×𝑛 be an 𝑚 × 𝑛 matrix, then the
matrix obtained by interchanging the rows and columns of 𝐴 is called the transpose of
𝐴. Transpose of the matrix 𝐴 is denoted by 𝐴′ or 𝐴T.
If 𝐴 = [𝑎𝑖𝑗 ]𝑚×𝑛 , then 𝐴′ = [𝑎𝑗𝑖 ]𝑛×𝑚

➢ INVERTIBLE MATRICES: If A is a square matrix of order m, and if there exists

another square matrix B of the same order m, such that AB = BA = I, then B is called
the inverse matrix of A and it is denoted by A– 1. In that case A is said to be invertible.

3 Assertion (A): For two matrices A and B , 𝐴𝐵 ≠ 𝐵𝐴

Reason (R): Matrix multiplication follows the commutative property.
Solution:
3 3
AB and BA are different.. e. g [1 2] [ ] = [8] and[ ][1 2], So first statement is
4 4
correct and second is wrong
option (c )
4 Assertion (A): For any two matrices of the same order, (𝐴 + 𝐵)𝑇 = 𝐴𝑇 + 𝐵 𝑇 .
Reason (R): For any two matrices such that AB is defined, then (𝐴. 𝐵)𝑇 = 𝐴𝑇 . 𝐵 𝑇

Both are correct. and second is correct explanation for first
Option (a)
6 Assertion (A): If A is a matrix of order 3 × 3 and B is a matrix of order
2 × 3, Then order of AB is 3 × 3.
Reason (R): Product AB is possible if number of columns of A and number of

rows of B are equal .
Solution:
Here number of column of matrix is 3 and number of rows of B is 2. So AB not
possible. First statement is not correct. Second statement is correct
Option: (d)
7 Assertion (A):If A is a square matrix and A2 = A, then(A + I)3 − 7A = I
Reason (R): 𝐴𝐼 = 𝐼 = 𝐴𝐼 where I is unit matrix.
Solution:
(𝐼 + 𝐴)3 − 7A =I 3 + 3A2 + 3A + A3 − 7A = I + 3A + 3A + A − 7A = I

5 A trust fund has Rs 30,000 that must be invested in two different types of bonds. The
first bond pays 5% interest per year, and the second bond pays 7% interest per year.
Using matrix multiplication, determine how to divide Rs 30,000 among the two
types of bonds,if the trust fund must obtain an annual total interest of Rs 1,800.
Solution:
Let Investment in 1st bond = Rs x
So, Investment in 2nd bond = Rs 30,000−x

2 Ashish wants to purchase a rectangular plot from his neighbour to construct a
house. He asked about the dimensions of the plot , his neighbour told that if the
length is decreased by 50m and the breadth is increased by 50m, then the area
will remain the same, but If the length is decreased by 20m and breadth is
increased by 30 m ,the area will increase by 1400m2 .
Based on the information given above, answer the following questions
(i) Let 𝑥 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑦 denote the length and breadth of the plot, then equations in terms
of 𝑥 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑦 are.
(a) 𝑥 + 𝑦 = 50; 3𝑥 + 2𝑦 = 200 (b) 𝑥 − 𝑦 = 50; 3𝑥 − 2𝑦 = 200
(c) 𝑥 + 𝑦 = 50; 3𝑥 − 2𝑦 = 200 (d) 𝑥 − 𝑦 = 50; 3𝑥 + 2𝑦 = 200
Solution:
(𝑥 − 50)(𝑦 + 50) = 𝑥𝑦 𝑎𝑛𝑑 (𝑥 − 20)(𝑦 + 30) = 𝑥𝑦 + 1400 on simplification
we get
𝑥 − 𝑦 = 50 𝑎𝑛𝑑; 3𝑥 − 2𝑦 = 200

CHAPTER: DETERMINANTS
SYLLABUS: Determinant of a square matrix (up to 3 x 3 matrices), minors, co-factors and
applications of determinants in finding the area of a triangle. Adjoint and inverse of a square
matrix. Consistency, inconsistency and number of solutions of system of linear equations by
examples, solving system of linear equations in two or three variables (having unique solution)
using inverse of a matrix.

To every square matrix we can assign a number called determinant
➢ Determinant:

• 𝐿𝑒𝑡 𝐴 = [ ] , 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑛 𝑑𝑒𝑡(𝐴) = |𝐴| = 𝑎𝑑 − 𝑏𝑐
𝑐 𝑑
𝑎 𝑏 𝑐
𝑑 𝑓 𝑑 𝑒
• 𝐿𝑒𝑡 𝐴 = [𝑑 𝑒 𝑓 ] , 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑛 |𝐴| = 𝑎 |𝑒 𝑓
|−𝑏| |+𝑐| |
ℎ 𝑘 𝑔 𝑘 𝑔 ℎ
𝑔 ℎ 𝑘
• For easier calculations, we shall expand the determinant along that row or
column which contains maximum number of zeros
• The area of a triangle whose vertices are (x1 , y1 ), (x2 , y2) and (x3 , y3), is
𝑥1 𝑦1 1
1
Δ = 2 | 𝑥2 𝑦2 1|
𝑥3 𝑦3 1
Since area is a positive quantity, we always take the absolute value of the
determinant
• The area of the triangle formed by three collinear points is zero.
• Equation of line joining the points (x1 , y1 ) and (x2 , y2) is

𝑥 𝑦 1
| 𝑥1 𝑦1 1 |=0
𝑥2 𝑦2 1
➢ Minors: Minor of an element 𝑎𝑖𝑗 of a determinant is the determinant obtained by
deleting its ith row and jth column in which element 𝑎𝑖𝑗 lies. Minor of an element 𝑎𝑖𝑗
is denoted by 𝑀𝑖𝑗 .
➢ Co-Factors: Cofactor of an element 𝑎𝑖𝑗 , denoted by 𝐴𝑖𝑗 is defined by
𝐴𝑖𝑗 = (−1)𝑖+𝑗 . 𝑀𝑖𝑗 , where 𝑀𝑖𝑗 is minor of 𝑎𝑖𝑗
➢ The value of a determinant Δ = sum of the product of elements of any row (or
column) with their corresponding cofactors.
58
➢ If elements of a row (or column) are multiplied with cofactors of any other row (or
column), then their sum is zero. For example a11A31+a12A32+a13A33 =0
➢ Adjoint of a Matrix: The adjoint of a square matrix 𝐴 = [𝑎𝑖𝑗 ] is defined as the

transpose of the matrix [𝐴𝑖𝑗 ] , where 𝐴𝑖𝑗 is the cofactor of the element 𝑎𝑖𝑗 .
Adjoint of the matrix A is denoted by adj A.
➢ To find adjoint of a 2×2 matrix interchange the diagonal elements and change the sign
of non – diagonal elements.
➢ Inverse of a Matrix: Let A be a square matrix.

𝐴−1 = 𝑎𝑑𝑗𝐴
|𝐴|
➢ Solution of system of linear equations by using matrix method:
Let the system of linear equations be
𝑎1 𝑥 + 𝑏1 𝑦 + 𝑐1 𝑧 = 𝑑1
𝑎2 𝑥 + 𝑏2 𝑦 + 𝑐2 𝑧 = 𝑑2
𝑎3 𝑥 + 𝑏3 𝑦 + 𝑐3 𝑧 = 𝑑3
These equations can be written as
𝑎1 𝑏1 𝑐1 𝑥 𝑑1
[𝑎 2 𝑏2 𝑦
𝑐2 ] [ ] = [𝑑2 ]
𝑎3 𝑏3 𝑐3 𝑧 𝑑3
𝐴𝑋 = 𝐵
𝑋 = 𝐴−1 𝐵

• 𝑖𝑓 |𝐴| = 0 , 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑛 𝑤𝑒 𝑐𝑎𝑙𝑐𝑢𝑙𝑎𝑡𝑒 (𝑎𝑑𝑗𝐴)𝐵.
• 𝐼𝑓 |𝐴| = 0 𝑎𝑛𝑑 (𝑎𝑑𝑗𝐴)𝐵 ≠ 𝑂 , (O being zero matrix), then solution does not
exist and the system of equations is called inconsistent.
• 𝐼𝑓 |𝐴| = 0 𝑎𝑛𝑑 (𝑎𝑑𝑗𝐴)𝐵 = 𝑂, then system may be either consistent or

inconsistent according as the system have either infinitely many solutions or
no solution.
➢ Important notes:
• The matrix A is singular if |𝐴| = 0
59
• A square matrix A is said to be non-singular if |𝐴| ≠ 0
• If A and B are nonsingular matrices of the same order, then AB and BA are also
nonsingular matrices of the same order
• If A is an invertible matrix, then |𝐴| ≠ 0 and (A-1) T = (AT)-1
• |𝜆𝐴| = 𝜆𝑛 |𝐴|, 𝑤ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒 𝑛 = 𝑜𝑟𝑑𝑒𝑟 𝑜𝑓 𝑚𝑎𝑡𝑟𝑖𝑥 𝐴
• 𝐴(𝑎𝑑𝑗𝐴) = (𝑎𝑑𝑗𝐴)𝐴 = |𝐴|𝐼
• |𝑎𝑑𝑗𝐴| = |𝐴|𝑛−1 , 𝑤ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒 𝑛 = 𝑜𝑟𝑑𝑒𝑟 𝑜𝑓 𝑚𝑎𝑡𝑟𝑖𝑥 𝐴
• |𝐴(𝑎𝑑𝑗𝐴)| = |𝐴|𝑛 , 𝑤ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒 𝑛 = 𝑜𝑟𝑑𝑒𝑟 𝑜𝑓 𝑚𝑎𝑡𝑟𝑖𝑥 𝐴
• |𝐴𝐵| = |𝐴||𝐵|
• (𝐴𝐵)−1 = 𝐵 −1𝐴−1
• |𝐴−1 | = |𝐴|−1
• |𝐴𝑇 | = |𝐴|
• If A and B are square matrices of the same order, then 𝑎𝑑𝑗(𝐴𝐵) = (𝑎𝑑𝑗𝐵). ( 𝑎𝑑𝑗 𝐴)

ASSERTION & REASONING QUESTIONS
In the following questions, a statement of Assertion (A) is followed by a statement of

(a) Both A and R true and R is the correct explanation of A.
(b) Both A and R true and R is not the correct explanation of A
(c) A is true but R is false
(d) A is false but R is true
1 𝑑2 𝑦
Assertion(A) : If 𝑥 = 2𝑎𝑡 , 𝑦 = 𝑎𝑡 2 , then 𝑑𝑥 2 is constant for all t
𝑑2 𝑦 𝑓 ′ (𝑡)𝑔′′ (𝑡)−𝑔′ (𝑡)𝑓′′(𝑡)

Reason (R ) : If 𝑥 = 𝑓(𝑡) , 𝑦 = 𝑔(𝑡) , then =
𝑑𝑥 2 (𝑓 ′ (𝑡))2
Explanation:
𝑑𝑦 𝑑𝑦/𝑑𝑡 2𝑎𝑡
= = =t
𝑑𝑥 𝑑𝑥/𝑑𝑡 2𝑎
𝑑2 𝑦 1
= 1(2𝑎) which is a constant.
𝑑𝑥 2
So A is true
𝑑2 𝑦 𝑑 𝑑𝑦 𝑑𝑡
= 𝑑𝑡 (𝑑𝑥 ) 𝑑𝑥 so R is false
𝑑𝑥 2
A is true but R is false

2
Assertion(A) : If the function f(x) = {𝑎√𝑥 + 1 , 0 ≤ 𝑥 ≤ 3 is differentiable, then
𝑏𝑥 + 2, 3<𝑥≤5
2𝑎 = 3𝑏 + 2
Reason (R): Every continouou function is differentiable.
Explanation:
LHL = lim 𝑓(3 − ℎ) = lim 𝑎√3 − ℎ + 1 = 2a
ℎ→0 ℎ→0
RHL =lim 𝑓(3 + ℎ)= lim 𝑏(3 + ℎ) + 2 = 3b+2

ℎ→0 ℎ→0
Since 𝑓 is differentiable, it is continuous so LHL = RHL
2𝑎 = 3𝑏 + 2
So A is true & R is also not true
3 Assertion (A): The function f(x) = |x| is everywhere continuous.
Reason (R): Every differentiable function is continuous.
84
Explanation:
LHL = lim 𝑓(𝑎 − ℎ) = lim |𝑎 − ℎ|=a

ℎ→0 ℎ→0
RHL =lim 𝑓(𝑎 + ℎ)= lim |𝑎 + ℎ| = a

ℎ→0 ℎ→0
f( a) = |a| =a
LHL= RHL= f (a) so f is continuous.
So A is true & R is true
Both A and R true and R is not the correct explanation of A
4
Assertion(A) : If 𝑓(𝑥) 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑔(𝑥) are two continuous functions such that
𝑓(0) = 3 , 𝑔( 0) = 2, then lim{𝑓(𝑥) + 𝑔(𝑥)} =5
𝑥→0
Reason (R ) : If f(x) and g(x) are two continuous functions at x=a then
lim {𝑓(𝑥) + 𝑔(𝑥)} = lim 𝑓(𝑥) + lim 𝑔(𝑥)
𝑥→𝑎 𝑥→𝑎 𝑥→𝑎

Explanation:
By using algebra of limits

lim{𝑓(𝑥) + 𝑔(𝑥)} = lim 𝑓(𝑥) + lim 𝑔(𝑥) = 𝑓(0) + 𝑔(0) = 3 + 2 = 5
𝑥→0 𝑥→0 𝑥→0
So A is true and R is also true
Both A and R true and R is the correct explanation of A.
5 𝑑3 𝑦
Assertion (A): If 𝑦 = 𝑠𝑖𝑛 𝑥 , then 𝑑𝑥 3 = −1 𝑎𝑡 𝑥 = 0
𝑑𝑦
Reason (R ) : If 𝑦 = 𝑓(𝑥). 𝑔(𝑥) then 𝑑𝑥 = 𝑓(𝑥) 𝑔’(𝑥) + 𝑔(𝑥) 𝑓’(𝑥)
Explanation:
y= sin x
𝒅𝒚
= cos x
𝒅𝒙
𝑑3 𝑦
= -sin x
𝑑𝑥 3
𝑑3 𝑦
= - cos x
𝑑𝑥 3
𝑑3 𝑦
=-1 at x=0
𝑑𝑥 3
85
So A is true & R is product rule which is also true
6
Assertion (A): If 𝑓(𝑥) = sin−1 𝑥 + cos −1 𝑥 + 2 , then 𝑓’(1) = 0
𝑑
Reason (R ) : 𝑑𝑥 (sin 𝑥) = cos x

Explanation:
f(x) = sin−1 𝑥 + cos−1 𝑥 + 2

𝑥→2
=lim |2 + ℎ − 3| + |2 + ℎ − 2| =1

CHAPTER: APPLICATION OF DERIVATIVES
SYLLABUS: Applications of derivatives: rate of change of quantities, increasing/decreasing
functions, maxima and minima (first derivative test motivated geometrically and second
derivative test given as a provable tool). Simple problems (that illustrate basic principles and
understanding of the subject as well as real-life situations).
Definations and Formulae:
Derivative as Rate of Change

• The value of at 𝑥 = 𝑥0 i.e (𝑑𝑥 ) i.e. represents the rate of change of 𝑦 𝑤. 𝑟. 𝑡 𝑥 𝑎𝑡

• If two variables x and y are varying with respect to another variable t, i.e., if 𝑥 = 𝑓(𝑡) and

Increasing and Decreasing Functions
• A function y = f (x) is said to be increasing on an interval (a, b) if x 1 < x 2 in (a, b) f(x1) ≤

f(x2) for all 𝑥1 , 𝑥2 ∈ (𝑎, 𝑏)
Alternatively, a function y = f (x) is said to be increasing if f ′(x) ≥ 0 for each x in (a, b)
(a) strictly increasing on an interval (a, b) if x 1 < x 2 in (a, b) f(x1) < f(x2) for all x 1 , x 2
(a, b).
Alternatively, a function y = f (x) is said to be strictly increasing if f ′(x) > 0 for each x in
(a, b)
(b) decreasing on (a, b) if x 1 < x 2 in (a, b) f(x1) ≥ f(x 2 ) for all x 1 , x 2 (a, b). Alternatively,
a function y = f (x) ) is said to be decreasing if f ′(x) ≤ 0 for each x in (a, b)
(c) strictly decreasing on (a, b) if x 1 < x 2 in (a, b) f(x 1 ) > f(x 2 ) for all x 1 , x 2 (a, b).
Alternatively, a function y = f (x) is said to be strictly decreasing if f ′(x)<0 for each x in

(a, b)
(d) constant function in (a, b), if f (x) = c for all x (a, b), where c is a constant.
Alternatively , f(x) is a constant function if f ′ (x )= 0.
A point c in the domain of a function f at which either f ′(c) = 0 or f is not differentiable is

called a critical point of f.
103
Maxima and Minima
Definition: Let f be a function defined on an interval I. Then

1) f is said to have a maximum value in I, if there exists a point c in I such that f(c) > f(x), for all
x I. The number f(c) is called the maximum value of f in I and the point c is called a point of
maximum value of f in I.
2) f is said to have a minimum value in I, if there exists a point c in I such that f (c) < f (x), for all
x I. The number f (c), in this case, is called the minimum value of f in I and the point c, in
this case, is called a point of minimum value of f in I.
3) f is said to have an extreme value in I if there exists a point c in I such that f (c) is either a
maximum value or a minimum value of f in I. The number f (c), in this case, is called an extreme
value of f in I and the point c is called an extreme point.
Local Maxima and Local Minima
Definition: Let f be a real valued function and let c be an interior point in the domain of f.
Then
(a) c is called a point of local maxima if there is an h > 0 such that 𝑓 (𝑐) ≥ 𝑓 (𝑥), for all x in
(𝑐 – ℎ, 𝑐 + ℎ), 𝑥 ≠ 𝑐. The value f(c) is called the local maximum value of f.
(b) c is called a point of local minima if there is an h > 0 such that f (c) ≤ f (x), for all x in (c – h,
c + h). The value f(c) is called the local minimum value of f.
Geometrically, the above definition states that if x = c is a point of local maxima of f, then the
graph of f around c will be as shown in Fig.(a) below. Note that the function f is increasing
(i.e., f ′(x) > 0) in the interval (c – h, c) and decreasing (i.e., f ′(x) < 0) in the interval (c, c + h).
This suggests that f ′(c) must be zero,
Similarly ,if x = c is a point of local minima of f, then the graph of f around c will be as shown
in Fig.(b) above. Note that the function f is decreasing (i.e., f ′(x) < 0) in the interval (c – h,
104
c) and increasing (i.e., f ′(x) >0) in the interval (c, c + h). This again suggests that f ′(c) must
be zero,
Theorem: Let f be a function defined on an open interval I. Suppose c I be any point. If f has
a local maxima or a local minima at x = c, then either f ′(c) = 0 or f is not differentiable at c.
Definition: A point c in the domain of a function f at which either f ′(c) = 0 or f is not

differentiable is called a critical point of f.
Theorem: (First Derivative Test) Let f be a function defined on an open interval I. Let f be
continuous at a critical point c in I. Then
1) If f ′(x) changes sign from positive to negative as x increases through c, i.e.,
if f ′(x) > 0 at every point sufficiently close to and to the left of c, and f ′(x) < 0 at every point
sufficiently close to and to the right of c, then c is a point of local maxima.
2) If f ′(x) changes sign from negative to positive as x increases through c, i.e., if f ′(x) < 0 at every
point sufficiently close to and to the left of c, and f ′(x) > 0 at every point sufficiently close to
and to the right of c, then c is a point of local minima.
3) If f ′(x) does not change sign as x increases through c, then c is neither a point of local maxima
nor a point of local minima. In fact, such a point is called point of inflection.
Theorem: (Second Derivative Test) Let f be a function defined on an interval I and c I. Let
f be twice differentiable at c. Then
1) x = c is a point of local maxima if f ′(c) = 0 and f ″(c) < 0 The value f (c) is local maximum
value of f.
2) x = c is a point of local minima if f ′(c) 0 = and f ″(c) > 0 In this case, f (c) is local minimum
value of f.
3) The test fails if f ′(c) = 0 and f ″(c) = 0. In this case, we go back to the first derivative test and
find whether c is a point of local maxima, local minima or a point of inflexion.
Working rule for finding absolute maximum value and/or absolute minimum value
Step 1: Find all critical points of f in the interval, i.e., find points x where either f ′(x) = 0 or f
is not differentiable.
Step 2: Take the end points of the interval.
Step 3: At all these points (listed in Step 1 and 2), calculate the values of f.
Step 4: Identify the maximum and minimum values of f out of the values calculated in Step 3.
105
This maximum value will be the absolute maximum value of f and the minimum value
will be the absolute minimum value of f.

(a) (−1, ∞) (b) (−2, −1)
(c) (−∞, −2) (d) [−1,1]
Sol: (b) We have, f(x)=2x3+9x2+12x-1

fʹ(x)=6x2+18x+12=6(x2+3x+2)= 6(𝑥 + 2)(𝑥 + 1)
for f(x) to be decreasing, we must have
𝑓ʹ(𝑥) < 0 ⟹ 6(𝑥 + 2)(𝑥 + 1) ≤ 0
⟹ (𝑥 + 2)(𝑥 + 1) ≤ 0
−2 ≤ 𝑥 ≤ −1.
Hence, f(x) is decreasing on (−2, −1).

8 The function f(x)=2x3-3x2-12x+4 has

(a) two points of local maximum
(b) two points of local minimum
(c) one maximum and one minimum
(d)no maximum, no minimum
Sol: (c) We have, f(x)=2x3-3x2-12x+4

⇒ fʹ(x)=6x2+18x+12 and fʹʹ (x)=12x-6
At points of local maximum or minimum, we have
⇒ fʹ(x)=0 ⇒ 6(x2-x-2)=0 ⇒ (x-2) (x+1) = 0 ⇒ x = -1, 2
At x = -1, we obtain : fʹʹ (-1) = -18<0. So, x = -1 is a point of local maximum.
At x = 2, we obtain : fʹʹ (2) = 24 - 6 = 18>0. So, x = 2 is a point of local
minimum.
9 The interval on which the function f(x)=x3+6x2+6 is strictly increasing is
(a) (-∞,-4) ∪ (0, ∞) (b) (-∞,-4)
(c) (-4,0) (d) (-∞,0) ∪ (4, ∞)
Sol: (a) We have, f(x) = x3+6x2+6

⇒ fʹ(x) =3x2+12x=3x(x+4)
For f(x) to be increasing, we must have
fʹ(x)>0 ⇒ 3x(x+4)>0 ⇒ x(x+4) > 0 ⇒ x<-4 or, x>0
Hence, f(x) is increasing on (-∞,-4) ∪ (0, ∞).

decreasing.
Sol: We have,
𝑓(𝑥) = −𝑥 2 − 2𝑥 + 15
⇒ 𝑓ʹ(𝑥)= −2𝑥 − 2 = -2(𝑥 + 1)
For 𝑓(𝑥) to be increasing, we must have
𝑓ʹ(𝑥)>0
⇒ -2(𝑥 + 1)>0
⇒ 𝑥 + 1<0
⇒ 𝑥 < −1 ⇒ 𝑥 ∈ (−∞, −1)
Thus, 𝑓(𝑥) is increasing on the interval (−∞, −1).
For 𝑓(𝑥) to be decreasing, we must have
𝑓ʹ(𝑥) < 0

so for no value of x, 𝑓ʹ(𝑥) = 0.
So 𝑓(𝑥) has no critical points.
Hence, 𝑓(𝑥) has neither local maximum nor local minimum.

For maxima or minima,
𝑃ʹ(𝑥) = 0 ⇒ 42 – 2x = 0 ⇒ x = 21
𝑃ʹʹ(x) = −2 < 0
So, 𝑃(𝑥) is maximum at x = 21.
The maximum value of 𝑃(𝑥)

10 A telephone company in a town has 500 subscribers on its list and collects
fixed charges of Rs.300 per subscriber per year. The company proposes to
increase the annual subscription and it is believed that for every increase of
Rs.1 per one subscriber will discontinue the service. Find what increase will
bring maximum profit?
Solution: Consider that company increases the annual subscription by Rs. x
So, x subscribers will discontinue the service
⸫ Total revenue of company after the increment is given by

=15 x 104 + 500𝑥 − 300𝑥 − 𝑥 2

On differentiating both sides w.r.t x, we get
Rʹ (x) = −2𝑥 + 200
Now, Rʹ (x) = 0
⇒ 2x = 200 ⇒ x=100
⸫ Rʹʹ (x) = -2<0
So, R(x) is maximum when x=100
Hence, the company should increase the subscription fee by Rs.100, so that it
has maximum profit.

5 Two men A and B start with velocities v at the same time from the junction of two
roads inclined at 450 to each other. If they travel by different roads, then find the
rate at which they are being separated.
121
Solution: Let two men start from the point C with velocity v each at the same
time.
Also, ∠𝐵𝐶𝐴 = 450
Since, A and B are moving with same velocity v, so they will cover same distance
in same time.
Therefore, 𝛥𝐴𝐵𝐶 is an isosceles triangle with
AC=BC.
Now, draw CD⊥AB.
Let at any instant t, the distance between them is AB.
Let AC=BC=x and AB=y

the
number of days exposed to the sunlight for x ≤ 3.
(i) Find the rate of growth of the plant with respect to the number of days
exposed to the sunlight.
(ii) Does the rate of growth of the plant increase or decrease in the first three
days? What will be the height of the plant after 2 days?
Solution:
(i)The rate of growth of the plant with respect to the number of days exposed to
𝑑𝑦
sunlight is given by 𝑑𝑥 = 4 – x.
𝑑𝑦
(ii) Let rate of growth be represented by the function g (x) = 𝑑𝑥 .

3 A Veterinary doctor was examining a sick cat brought by a pet lover. When it
was brought to the hospital, it was already dead. The pet lover wanted to find its
time of death. He took the temperature of the cat at 11.30 pm which was 94.6°F.
He took the temperature again after one hour; the temperature was lower than
the first observation. It was 93.4°F.The room in which the cat was put is always
at 70°F. The normal temperature of the cat is taken as 98.6°F when it was alive.
The doctor estimated the time of death using Newton law of cooling which is
𝑑𝑇

intensity etc
Zero vector: a vector whose initial and terminal points are same is called a zero vector or null
vector and is denoted by ⃗O

CHAPTER : LINEAR PROGRAMMING
SYLLABUS: Introduction, related terminology such as constraints, objective function,
optimization, graphical method of solution for problems in two variables, feasible and
infeasible regions (bounded or unbounded), feasible and infeasible solutions, optimal feasible
solutions (up to three non-trivial constraints.)
1) Let R be the feasible region (convex polygon) for a linear programming problem and
let Z = ax + by be the objective function. When Z has an optimal value (maximum or
minimum), where the variables x and y are subject to constraints described by linear
inequalities, this optimal value must occur at a corner point* (vertex) of the feasible
region.
2) Let R be the feasible region for a linear programming problem, and let
Z = ax + by be the objective function. If R is bounded**, then the objective
function Z has both a maximum and a minimum value on R and each of these occurs
at a corner point (vertex) of R
Remark: If R is unbounded, then a maximum or a minimum value of the
objective function may not exist. However, if it exists, it must occur at a corner
point of R.
➢ Solving linear programming problem using Corner Point Method.
The method comprises of the following steps:
1. Find the feasible region of the linear programming problem and determine its corner
points(vertices) either by inspection or by solving the two equations of the lines
intersecting at the point.
2. Evaluate the objective function Z=ax+ by at each corner point. Let M and m,
respectively denote the largest and smallest values of these points.
3. (i) When the feasible region is bounded, M and m are the maximum and
minimum value of Z.
(ii) In case, the feasible region is unbounded, we have:
(a) M is the maximum value of Z , if the open half plane determined by
ax+ by >M has no point in common with the feasible region.
Otherwise, Z has no maximum value.
(b) Similarly, m is the minimum value of Z, if the open half plane determined by
ax+ by<m has no point in common with the feasible region.
Otherwise, Z has no minimum value.

x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0 and 5x + 2y ≤ 10, is 15
209
Reason(R): A feasible region may be bounded or unbounded
Solution: corner points are (0, 0), (2, 0) and (0, 5)
Zmax =5x0 + 3x5 =15 at (0, 5)
So, both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation for A
Ans: b

Solution: corner points are (0, 0), (10, 0), (20/3, 20/3) and (0, 10)
Zmax. =x + 3y = 0 + 3x10 = 30
both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation for A
Ans: b
3 Assertion (A): The feasible region represented by 2x + 5y ≥ 80, x + y ≤ 20, x ≥ 0,
y ≥ 0 is bounded.

120a + 0 = 600 => a = 5
Also, 60a + 30b = 600 => 60x5 + 30b = 600 => b = 10

Z at (60, 0) = 5 x 60 + 0= 300 is min.
Ans: a

8 Assertion (A): The point (4, 2) does not lies in the half plane 4x + 6y – 24 < 0
Reason(R): The point (1, 2) lies in the half plane 4x + 6y – 24 < 0
Solution: Clearly A is true and R is false
Ans: c
9 Assertion (A): If the corner points of the feasible region for an LPP are (0, 4), (1,
4), (4, 1) and (12, -1), then the minimum value of the objective function Z = 2x +
4y is at (4, 1)
Reason(R): If the corner points of the feasible region for an LPP are (0, 4), (1,
4), (4, 1) and (12, -1), then the maximum value of the objective function Z = 2x +
4y is 20.
Solution: min = Z(4, 1) = 2x4 + 4x1 = 12, max.= Z(12, -1)= 2x12 + 4x(-1) = 20
Hence A is true and R is true but R is not correct explanation
Ans: b

(0, 5) and (0, 4). The objective function Z = ax - by + 1900, a, b > 0 has maximum
value 1950 at (5, 0) and minimum 1550 at (0, 5).
Assertion (A): The value of Z at the point (5, 3) is 1740
Reason(R): a = 10, b = 70
211
Solution: Z max.at (5, 0) = 1950 => 5a – bx0 + 1900 = 1950 => a = 10
Zmin.at (0,5) = 1550 => ax0 – bx5 + 1900 =1550 => b = 70
Z(5, 3) = 10x5 – 70x3 + 1900 = 1740

CHAPTER:PROBABILITY
SYLLABUS:
Conditional probability, multiplication theorem on probability, independent events, total

probability, Bayes’ theorem, Random variable and its probability distribution, mean of random
variable.
Conditional Probability: If A and B are two events associated with any random experiment,
then 𝑃(𝐴/𝐵) represents the probability of occurrence of event A knowing that the event B
has already occurred.
𝑃(𝐴 ∩ 𝐵)
𝑃(𝐴/𝐵) = , 𝑃(𝐵) ≠ 0.
𝑃(𝐵)
𝑃(𝐵) ≠ 0, , means that the event B should not be impossible.
Multiplication Theorem on Probability: If the event A and B are associated with any
random experiment and the occurrence of one depends on the other, then
𝑃(𝐴 ∩ 𝐵) = 𝑃(𝐴). 𝑃(𝐵/𝐴), 𝑤ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒𝑃(𝐴) ≠ 0
Independent Events:
When the probability of occurrence of one event does not depend on the occurrence /non-
occurrence of the other event then those events are said to be independent events.
Then 𝑃(𝐴/𝐵) = 𝑃(𝐴) 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑃(𝐵/𝐴) = 𝑃(𝐵)
So, for any two independent events A and B ,𝑃(𝐴 ∩ 𝐵) = 𝑃(𝐴). 𝑃(𝐵).
Theorem on total probability:

Bayes’ Theorem:
"Let " S "be the sample space and " 𝐸1 , 𝐸2 , . . . , 𝐸𝑛 " be " 𝑛" mutuallyexclusive and
"exhaustive events associated with " a" random experiment." If A is any event
which occurs with 𝐸1 𝑜𝑟 𝐸2 𝑜𝑟, . . 𝑜𝑟 𝐸𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑛

Random Variable: It is a real valued function whose domain is the sample space of random
experiment.
Probability Distribution: It is a system of number of random variable (X) such that

X X1 X2 …. Xn
P(X) P1 P2 …. Pn

Ans: (b)
A is correct but R is not the correct explanation of A.
4. Assertion (A): Consider the experiment of drawing a card from a deck of 52 playing
cards, in which the elementary events are assumed to be equally likely.
If E and F denote the events the card drawn is a spade and the card drawn is an ace
respectively, then P(E/F)=1/4 and P(F/E)=1/13.
Reason (R): E and F are two events such that the probability of occurrence of one of them
is not affected by occurrence of the other. Such events are called independent events.
Ans: (b) as A is correct but R is not the correct explanation of A.
5. Consider that following statements:

Assertion (A): Let A and B be two independent events. Then P(A and B)= P(A)+P(B)
Reason (R): Three events A,B and C are said to be independent if
P(A  B  C ) = P(A).P(B).P(C )
Ans: (d) as P(A and B) = P(A) + P(B) − P(A).P(B) , hence A is false and R is True.
6. Assertion (A): In rolling a die, event A= {1, 3, 5} and event B = {2, 4} are mutually
exclusive events.
Reason (R): in a sample space two events are mutually exclusive if they do not occur at
the same time.

Ans: (a) as A is true and R is the correct explanation for A.
For Assertion :
P(AUB) = 1 / 2
P(A) + P(B) − P(A).P(B) = 1 / 2
P(B) = 3 / 8 ( P(A) = 1 − 1 / 5 = 4 / 5)
R is correct exxplanation.
9. Assertion (A) : If A and B are mutually exclusive events with P (A’) =5/6 and P (B)=1/3.
Then P (A/B’)=1/4.
Reason (R) : If A and B are two events such that P (A)=0.2, P(B)=0.6 and P(A/B)=0.2
then the value of P(A/B’) is 0.2.

There is a sharp corner at 𝓍 = 0, so f(x) is not differentiable at 𝓍 =
0.
Method 2:
Lf ′(0) = 0& Rf '(0) = 2 ; so, the function is not differentiable at x

For 𝓍 ≥ 0,f(𝓍) = 2𝓍 (linear function) & when 𝓍 < 0, f(𝓍) = 0

So,R is reflexive relation on ℕ×ℕ.

Thus (a,b)R(c,d) ⇒ ( c, d) R (a, b) So R is symmetric relation on ℕ×ℕ
Let (a, b),(c, d), (e, f) be arbitrary elements of ℕ×ℕ such that (a,b)R(c,d) and (
