SECTION 2
This section contains 10 Numerical Value Type Questions Out of which ONLY 5 (any) questions have to be
attempted.
The answer to each question is a NUMERICAL VALUE. For each question, enter the correct numerical value of the
answer. If the answer is a decimal numerical value, then round-off the value to TWO decimal places. If the answer is
an Integer value, then do not add zero in the decimal places. In the OMR, do not bubble the  sign for positive
values. However, for negative values, Θ sign should be bubbled. (Example: 6, 81, 1.50, 3.25, 0.08)

21. Let f ( x)  x 2  bx  c, where b, c  R. If f (x) is a factor of both x 4  6 x 2  25 and 3x4  4 x2  28x  5,

then the least value of f (x) is
22. A is a square matrix of order n.
l = maximum number of distinct entries if A is a triangular matrix
m = maximum number of distinct entries if A is a diagonal matrix
p = minimum number of zeroes if A is a triangular matrix
If l + 5 = p + 2 m, find the order of the matrix.

23. For a parabola y 2  2 y  4 x  9  0, the tangent at some point B is 3y = x + 10, where the normal at some
other point K is 27y – 9x + 10 = 0. Let ,  are the segments of the chord BK cut by the axes of the
parabola. Find the number of integral values of ‘a’ for which the equation 3x 2 – (  ) x 

24. A man firing a distant target has 20% chance of hitting the target in one shot. If P be the probability of
hitting the target in atmost ‘n’ attempts where 20P2 –13P  2  0, then maximum value of n is.

(1  x 2  x 4  ....x 4n )(1  x 2  x 4  x6  .....  x 4 n ) is 152, then n is equal to_____.

28. The standard deviation of first five odd integers is a b where a and b are prime numbers, then 3a  b is
equal to______.
29. Let A(3, 2) , B(8, 5) and C (1,  1) be the vertices of triangle ABC. If P is point inside the triangle ABC
such that the triangles APC, APB and BPC have equal areas, then length of line segment PQ, where Q is
the point (9,  10) is _____.

30. Let S be the set of points where the function f ( x)  | x | 1 , x  R , is not differentiable. Then,

 f ( f ( x)) is equal to ____.
