Question 1

If <math>3A-B=\begin{bmatrix}5&0\\1&1\end{bmatrix}</math> and <math>B=\begin{bmatrix}4&3\\2&5\end{bmatrix}</math> , then find the matrix A.

SOLUTION:

<math>3A - B = \begin{bmatrix} 5 & 0 \\ 1 & 1 \end{bmatrix}</math>

We need to calculate A.

<math>3A = \begin{bmatrix} 5 & 0 \\ 1 & 1 \end{bmatrix} + B</math>

<math display="block">B = \begin{bmatrix} 4 & 3 \\ 2 & 5 \end{bmatrix}</math>

<math display="block">3A = \begin{bmatrix} 9 & 3 \\ 3 & 6 \end{bmatrix}</math>

<math display="block">A = \frac{1}{3} \begin{bmatrix} 9 & 3 \\ 3 & 6 \end{bmatrix}</math>

<math>A = \begin{bmatrix} 3 & 1 \\ 1 & 2 \end{bmatrix}</math>

Question 2

Write the order and the degree of the following differential equation:

<math>x^3 \left(\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}\right)^2 + x \left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right)^4 = 0</math>

SOLUTION:

Order is the highest order derivative present in the differential equation And degree is the power of highest order derivative.

We have given the differential equation:

<math>x^3 \left( \frac{\mathrm{d}^2 y}{\mathrm{d} x^2} \right)^2 + x \left( \frac{\mathrm{d} y}{\mathrm{d} x} \right)^4 = 0</math>

Here, order is 2 and degree is 2.

Question 3

If <math>f(x) = x + 1</math>, find <math>\frac{d}{dx}(f \circ f)(x)</math>.

SOLUTION:

Given: <math>f(x) = x + 1</math>

<math>fof(x) = (x+1) + 1 = x + 2</math>

<math>\frac{d}{dx}(f\circ f)(x) = \frac{d}{dx}(x+2) = 1</math>

Question 4

If a line makes angles 90°, 135°, 45° with the x, y and z axes respectively, find its direction cosines. OR Find the vector equation of the line which passes through the point (3, 4, 5) and is parallel to the vector <math>2\hat{i} + 2\hat{j} - 3\hat{k}</math>.

SOLUTION:

A line makes <math>90^{\circ}</math>, <math>135^{\circ}</math>, <math>45^{\circ}</math> with x, y and z axes respectively.

Therefore, Direction cosines of the line are <math>\cos 90^\circ, \; \cos 135^\circ \; and \; \cos 45^\circ</math>

<math>\Rightarrow</math> Direction cosines of the line are <math>0, -\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}, \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}</math>

OR

Vector equation of a line which passes through a point <math>(3,4,5)</math> and parallel to the vector <math>2\hat{\mathbf{i}}+2\hat{\mathbf{j}}-3\hat{\mathbf{k}}</math> is <math>\overrightarrow{r} = 3\hat{\mathbf{i}} + 4\hat{\mathbf{j}} + 5\hat{\mathbf{k}} + \mu\left(2\hat{\mathbf{i}} + 2\hat{\mathbf{j}} - 3\hat{\mathbf{k}}\right)</math>
