September 2 Shift 1 – Maths
Question 1.A line parallel to the straight line 2x-y = 0 is tangent to the hyperbola (x2/4)-(y2/2) = 1 at the point (x1, y1). Then x12+5y12 is equal to:
a) 6
b) 10
c) 8
d) 5

T: (xx1/4)-(yy1/2) = 1..(1)

t: 2x-y = 0 is parallel to T

T: 2x-y = λ ..(2)

Now compare (1) and (2)

x1 ÷(4/2) = y1 ÷(2/1) = 1/λ

x1 = 8/λ and y1 = 2/λ

(x1, y1) lies on hyperbola

(64/4λ2) -(4/2λ2) = 1

14 = λ2

Now x12+5y12 = (64/λ2) +5(4/λ2)

= 84/14

= 6

Answer:(a)

Question 2. The domain of the function f(x) = sin-1 [(|x|+5)/(x2+1)] is (-∞, -a]U[a,∞). Then a is equal to:
a) (√17-1)/2
b) √17/2
c) (1+√17)/2
d) (√17/2)+1

-1≤ (|x|+5)/x2+1 ≤1

-x2-1≤|x|+5≤ x2+1

Case 1

-x2-1≤ |x|+5

This inequality is always right for all x∈R.

Case 2:

|x|+5 ≤ x2+1

x2-|x| ≥4

x2-x-4 ≥0

(|x|-(1+√17)/2)(|x|-(1-√17)/2) ≥0

|x|≤(1-√17/2) (Not possible)

Or |x| ≥ (1+√17/2)

x∈(-∞, (-1-√17)/2] U[(1+√17)/2, )

a = (1+√17)/2

Answer: (c)

Question 3. If a function f(x) defined by

JEE Main 2020 Paper With Solution Maths Sept 2 Shift 1

be continuous for some a, b, c ∈ R and f’(0)+f’(2) = e, then the value of a is:


a) 1/(e2-3e+13)
b) e/(e2-3e-13)
c) e/(e2+3e+13)
d) e/(e2-3e+13)

f(x) is continuous

at x =1 At x = 1, b = ce – ae2

at x =3

9c = 9a+6c

c = 3a

Now f ’(0) +f ‘(2) = e

a-b+4c = e

a-e (3a-ae)+4×3a = e

a-3ae+ae2+12a = e

13a-3ae+ae2 = e

a = e/(13-3e+e2)

Answer: (d)

Question 4. The sum of the first three terms of a G.P. is S and their product is 27. Then all such S lie in
a) (-∞, -9]∪[3, ∞)
b) [-3, ∞)
c) (-∞, -9]
d) (-∞, -3]∪[9, ∞)

(a/r).a.ar = 27

a = 3

(a/r)+a+ar = S

(1/r)+1+r = S/3

r+(1/r) = (S/3)-1

r+(1/r) ≥ 2 or r+(1/r) ≤ -2

(S/3) ≥ 3 or (S/3) ≤ -1

S≥ 9 or S ≤ -3

S∈(-∞, -3]∪[9,∞)

Answer: (d)

Question 5. If R = {(x,y):x,y ∈ Z, x2+3y2 ≤ 8} is a relation on the set of integers Z, then the domain of R-1 is:
a) {-1, 0, 1}
b) {-2, -1, 1, 2}
c) {0,1}
d) {-2,-1,0,1,2}

3y2 ≤ 8-x2

R:{(0,1), (0,-1), (1,0), (-1,0), (1,1), (1,-1), (-1,1), (-1,-1), (2,0), (-2,0), (2,1), (2,-1), (-2,1), (-2,-1)}

R: {-2, -1, 0, 1, 2} ->{-1,0,-1}

Hence R-1:{-1,0,1}-> {-2, -1, 0, 1, 2}

Answer: (a)

= ei(5π/6)

= cos (5π/6)+ i sin 5π/6

= (-√3/2)+(i/2)

Answer: (c)

Question 7. Let P(h,k) be a point on the curve y = x2+7x+2, nearest to the line, y = 3x-3. Then the equation of the normal to the curve at P is:
a) x+3y-62 = 0
b) x-3y-11 = 0
c) x-3y+22 = 0
d) x+3y+26 = 0

C: y = x2+7x+2

Let P : (h, k) lies on

JEE Main 2020 Maths Papers With Solutions Sept 2 Shift 1

Curve k = h2+7h+2 …(1)

Now for shortest distance

Slope of tangent line at point P = slope of line L

dy/dx at P(h,k) = mL

(d/dx)(x2+7x+2) at P(h,k) = 3

(2x+7)at P(h,k) = 3

2h+7 = 3

h = -2

from (1) k = -8

P: (-2, -8)

equation of normal to the curve is perpendicular to L: 3x-y = 3

N: x+3y = λ

Pass(-2,-8)

λ = -26

N: x+3y+26 = 0

Answer: (d)

Question 8. Let A be a 2×2 real matrix with enries from {0,1} and A ≠ 0. Consider the following two statements:

(P) If A ≠I2 , then A = -1

(Q) If A =1 , then tr(A) = 2,

where I2 denotes 2×2 identity matrix and tr(A) denotes the sum of the diagonal entries of A. Then:


a) Both (P) and (Q) are false
b) (P) is true and (Q) is false
c) Both (P) and (Q) are true
d) (P) is false and (Q) is true

P: A =

\(\begin{array}{l}\begin{bmatrix} 1 &1 \\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}\end{array} \)
≠I2

And A ≠0 and A = 1 (False)

Q: A =

\(\begin{array}{l}\begin{bmatrix} 1 &1 \\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}=1\end{array} \)

then Tr(A) = 2 (true)

Answer: (d)

Question 9. Box I contains 30 cards numbered 1 to 30 and Box II contains 20 cards numbered 31 to 50. A box is selected at random and a card is drawn from it. The number on the card is found to be a non-prime number. The probability that the card was drawn from Box I is:
a) 4/17
b) 8/17
c) 2/5
d) 2/3

Let P(I) represent probability of selecting box I and P(II) represent probability of selecting box II.

P(I) = 1/2

P(II) = 1/2

In Box I, prime numbers are {2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19,23,27}

In Box II, prime numbers are {31,37,41,43,47}

Let A be event that selected number on card is non prime.

P(A) = P(I).P(A/I)+P(II).P(A/II)

= (1/2)×(20/30)+(1/2)×(15/20)

= 17/24

Now, P(I/A) = P(II).P(A/I)÷P(A)

= (1/2)×(20/30)÷ (17/24)

= (1/3)×(24/17)

= 8/17

Answer: (b)

Question 10. If p(x) be a polynomial of degree three that has a local maximum value 8 at x = 1 and a local minimum value 4 at x = 2; then p(0) is equal to :
a) 12
b) -12
c) -24
d) 6

p’(1) = 0 and p’(2) = 0

p’(x) = a(x-1)(x-2)

p(x) = a[(x3/3)-(3x2/2)+2x]+b

p(1) = 8

a[(1/3)-(3/2)+2]+b = 8 ..(i)

p(2) = 4

a[(8/3)-(3×4/2)+2×2]+b = 4 ..(ii)

From equation (i) and (ii)

a = 24 and b = -12

p(0) = b = -12

Answer: (b)

Question 12.Let α and β be the roots of the equation, 5x2+6x-2 = 0. If Sn = αnn, n = 1,2,3,.. then:
a) 5S6+6S5+2S4 = 0
b) 6S6+5S5 = 2S4
c) 6S6+5S5+2S4 = 0
d) 5S6+6S5= 2S4

5x2+6x-2 = 0

Put x = α

2+6α-2 = 0

6α-2 = -5α2 ..(i)

Similarly

6β-2 = -5β2 ..(ii)

S6 = α66

S5 = α55

S4 = α44

Now 6S5-2S4 = 6α5+6β5-2α4-2β4

= α4(6α-2)+β4(6β-2)

= α4(-5α2)+β4(-5β2)

= -5(α66)

= -5S6

Hence 6S5+5S6= 2S4

Answer: (d)

Question 13. If the tangent to the curve y = x+sin y at a point (a,b) is parallel to the line joining (0, 3/2) and (1/2, 2), then:
a) b = (π/2)+a
b) |a+b| = 1
c) |b-a| = 1
d) b = a

(dy/dx)p(a,b) = (2-3/2)/(1/2 -0)

1+cos b = 1. p: (a,b) lies on curve

cos b = 0

b = a+sin b

b = a

\(\begin{array}{l}\pm\end{array} \)
1

b-a =

a) (x+y+xy)/(1-x)(1-y)
b) (x+y-xy)/(1-x)(1-y)
c) (x+y+xy)/(1+x)(1+y)
d) (x+y-xy)/(1+x)(1+y)

(x+y)+(x2+xy+y2)+(x3+x2y+xy2+y3)+….. ∞

= (1/x-y){(x2-y2)+(x3-y3)+(x4-y4)+…..∞

= (x2/(1-x)) -(y2/(1-y))/(x-y)

= {x2(1-y)-y2(1-x)}/(1-x)(1-y)(x-y)

= ((x+y)-xy)(x-y)/(1-x)(1-y)(x-y)

= (x+y-xy)/(1-x)(1-y)

Answer: (b)

Question 16. Let α>0, β>0, be such that α32 = 4. If the maximum value of the term independent of x in the binomial expansion of (αx1/9+βx-1/6)10 is 10k, then k is equal to:
a) 176
b) 336
c) 352
d) 84

For term independent of x

Tr+1 = 10Cr(αx1/9 )10-r(βx-1/6)r

= 10Crα10-rβr.x(10-r)/9.x-r/6

Since (10-r)/9-(r/6) = 0

r = 4

T5 = 10Crα6.β4

AM≥GM

Now

\(\begin{array}{l}\frac{\frac{\alpha ^{3}}{2}+\frac{\alpha ^{3}}{2}+\frac{\beta ^{2}}{2}+\frac{\beta ^{2}}{2}}{4}\geq \sqrt[4]{\frac{\alpha ^{6}\beta ^{4}}{2^{4}}}\end{array} \)

Take 4th power

Question 18. Let X = {x∈N: 1≤x≤17} and Y = {ax+b:x∈X and a,b∈R, a>0}. If mean and variance of elements of Y are 17 and 216 respectively then a+b is equal to:
a) -27
b) 7
c) -7
d) 9

X :{1,2,…17}

Y: {ax+b:x∈X and a,b∈R, a>0}

Given var(Y) = 216

(Ʃy12)/n – mean2 = 216

(Ʃy12)/17 – 289 = 216

(Ʃy12) = 8585

(a+b)2 +(2a+b)2+….+(17a+b)2 = 8585

105a2 +b2+18ab=505 ..(1)

Now Ʃy1 = 17×17

a(17×9) + 17.b = 17×17

9a+b = 17 ….(2)

Question 19.Let y = y(x) be the solution of the differential equation, (2+sinx)/(y+1) (dy/dx) = -cos x, y>0, y(0) = 1. If y(π) = a, and (dy/dx) at x = π is b, then the ordered pair (a,b) is equal to:
a) (2,2/3)
b) (1,1)
c) (2,1)
d) (1,-1)

∫(dy/y+1) = ∫-cos x/(2+sin x)dx

ln |y+1| = -ln |2+sin| x +k

Put (0,1)

k = ln 4

Now C: (y+1)(2+sin x) = 4

y(π) = a (a+1)(2+0) = 4

⇒ a = 1

(dy/dx)x=π = b

⇒ b = -(-1)(2+0)/(1+1)

= 1

(a,b) = (1,1)

Answer: (b)

a2+b2-2a.b+a2+c2-2a.c = 8

2a2+b2+c2-2a.b -2a.c=8

a.b+a.c = -2

Now

\(\begin{array}{l}\left | \vec{a}+2\vec{b} \right |^{2}+\left | \vec{a}+2\vec{c} \right |^{2}\end{array} \)

= 2a2+4b2+4c2+4a.b+4a.c
