Question 41. The value of k, for which 
(cos x + sin x)2 + k sin x cos x - 1 = 0 is an identity, is
  1.    -1
  2.    -2
  3.    0
  4.    1
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> -2
:
B
(b) Given,(cos x + sin x)2 + k sin x cos x - 1 = 0, x
cos2x +sin2x + 2cos x sin x + k sin x cos x - 1 = 0, x
(k + 2)cos x sin x = 0, x
k = -2
Question 42. If for all real values of x,4x2+164x296 x sin α+5<132, then α lies in the interval.
  1.    (0,π3)
  2.    (π3,2π3)
  3.    (2π3,π)
  4.    (4π3,5π3)
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> (4π3,5π3)
:
D
Option D is the correct answer.
Question 43. If θ is an acute angle and sin θ=p68p, then p must satisfy
  1.    6≤p
  2.    6≤p
  3.    3≤p≤4
  4.    4≤p
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 6≤p
:
B
(b) θ is an acute angle so 0θ<90
0p68p<1 => 0(p6)<(8p)=>6p<7.

Question 47. Answer the questions on the basis of the information given below:
In the adjoining figure, I and II are circles with centres P and Q respectively. The two circles touch each other and have a common tangent that touches them at points R and S respectively. This common tangent meets the line joining P and Q at O. The diameters of I and II are in the ratio 4 : 3. It is also known that the length of PO is 28 cm.
Answer The Questions On The Basis Of The Information Given B...

  1.    2 cm
  2.    3 cm
  3.    4 cm
  4.    5  cm
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 3 cm
:
B
PQOQ=13
PQ=14(28)=7
MPMQ=43(Mispointofintersectionoftwocircles)
MQ=3cm
Question 48. Answer the questions on the basis of the information given below:
In the adjoining figure, I and II are circles with centres P and Q respectively. The two circles touch each other and have a common tangent that touches them at points R and S respectively. This common tangent meets the line joining P and Q at O. The diameters of I and II are in the ratio 4 : 3. It is also known that the length of PO is 28 cm.
Answer The Questions On The Basis Of The Information Given B...
The length of SO is:  
  1.    8√3 cm
  2.    10√3 cm
  3.    12√3cm
  4.    14√3 cm
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 12√3cm
:
C
OS=21232=123
Question 49. In the adjoining figure, points A, B, C and D lie on the circle, AD = 24 and BC = 12. What is the ratio of the area of triangle ΔCBE to that of the triangle ΔADE ? (CAT 1997)
In The Adjoining Figure, Points A, B, C And D Lie On The Cir...
  1.    1:4
  2.    1:2
  3.    1:3
  4.    data insufficient
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 1:4
:
A
(b) In ΔCBE andΔADE
CBA = CDA
(a chord of a circle subtends equal angle an all its circumference)
Similarily BCD = BAD and BEC = AED
(opp. angles)
Therefore ΔCBE ΔADE (AAA similarity rule)
NowBCDA=1224=12Thus, ratios of areas = 1:4,
since Ratio of Areas of 2 similar triangles = Ratio of squares of the corresponding sides
Question 50. AB > AF > BF; CD > DE > CE; and BF = 65 cm. which is the closest pair of points among all the six given points?            (CAT 1999)
  1.    B ,F
  2.    C ,D
  3.    A ,B
  4.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> None of these
:
D
(d) Cannot be determined
