Higher Maths

Higher Maths Booklet
This special booklet on higher maths aims to provide you practice on few of
the higher Maths topics asked at some of the management entrance tests.
In tests like JMET and XAT, some questions on the following mentioned
topics are covered.
Calculus
Coordinate Geometry
Trigonometry
Modern and discrete Algebra
3-D-Vector
Statistics
This booklet will provide answers to all your queries of higher maths. This
booklet contains 250 questions with detail solutions to each provided at the
end.
You are therefore required to solve all the questions provided in this booklet
to grasp all the Higher Maths Topics & their short-cuts, tricks etc.
Some of the questions covered in this booklet have been taken from the
previous year tests and hence will give you a fair idea regarding the efforts
and practice needed to crack these questions.

Let T p = 3 + 4(p – 1) = 4p – 1

Now p and q are + ive integers and hence from (1) we conclude that q is
multiple of 4 and so let q = 4s and as q lies between 1 and 102, therefore s = b (sin x cos α + sin α cos x) = b sin (x + α)
lies between 1 and 25. Q – 1 ≤ sin (x + α) ≤ 1

∴ a 2 + a 2 = 4 ⇒ a = √2 (5, 3) as follows. When x = 0,
we have | 0 – y| ≤ 5 ⇒ |y| ≤ 5 ⇒ – 5 ≤ y ≤ 5 ⇒ 0 ≤ y ≤ 5 [because y ≥ 0]
