SECTION – 3 (Maximum Marks : 12)

• This section contains TWO (02) List-Match sets.

• Each List-Match set has TWO (02) Multiple Choice Questions.

• Each List-Match set has two lists: List-I and List-II.

• List-I has Four entries (I), (II), (III) and (IV) and List-II has Six entries (P), (Q), (R), (S), (T) and (U).

• Four options are given in each Multiple Choice Question based on List-I and List-II and ONLY ONE of these four options satisfies the condition asked in the Multiple Choice Question.

• Answer to each question will be evaluated according to the following marking scheme:

Full Marks : +3 If ONLY the option corresponding to the correct combination is chosen;

Zero Marks : 0 If none of the options is chosen (i.e. the question is unanswered);

Negative Marks : –1 In all other cases.

Answer Q.15 and Q.16 by appropriately matching the lists based on the information given in the paragraph.

Let f(x) = sin(πcosx) and g(x) = cos(2πsinx) be two functions defined for x > 0. Define the following sets

whose elements are written in the increasing order :

X = {x : f(x) = 0},           Y = {x : f ʹ(x) = 0},

Z = {x : g(x) = 0},           W = {x : g ʹ(x) = 0}.

List-I contains the sets X, Y, Z and W. List-II contains some information regarding these sets.

Answer Q.17 and Q.18 by appropriately matching the lists based on the information given in the paragraph.

Let the circles C1 : x2 + y2 = 9 and C2 : (x – 3)2 + (y – 4)2 = 16, intersect at the points X and Y. Suppose that another circle C3 : (x – h)2 + (y – k)2 = r2 satisfies the following conditions :

(i) centre of C3 is collinear with the centres of C1 and C2,

(ii) C1 and C2 both lie inside C3, and

(iii)C3 touches C1 at M and C2 at N.

Let the line through X and Y intersect C3 at Z and W, and let a common tangent of C1 and C3 be a tangent to the parabola x2 = 8αy.

There are some expressions given in the List-I whose values are given in List-II below :
