MCQ
Assertion (A) : The matrix $\left(\begin{array}{llll}1 & 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 2 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 3 & 0\end{array}\right)$ is a diagonal matrix.
Reason (R) : $A=\left(a_{i j}\right)_{m \times m}$ is a square matrix such that entry $a_{i j}=0 \forall i, j$, then $A$ is called diagonal matrix.
  • A
    Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
  • B
    Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
  • C
    (A) is true but (R) is false.
  • (A) is false but (R) is true.

Answer

Correct option: D.
(A) is false but (R) is true.
(d) : The given matrix having order $3 \times 4$.
$\therefore \quad$ Given matrix is not a square matrix. Diagonal exist only in the square matrix.
$\therefore \quad$ Assertion is false.
On the other side, Reason satisfies the condition of diagonal matrix.
$\therefore \quad$ Assertion is false but Reason is true.

Assertion (A) : $x \sin x \frac{d y}{d x}+(x+x \cos x+\sin x)$ $y=\sin x, y\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\right)=1-\frac{2}{\pi} \Rightarrow y=\frac{x-\sin x}{x(1-\cos x)}$
Reason (R) : The differential equation is linear with integrating factor $x(1-\cos x)$.
Directions: In the following questions, the Assertions (A) and Reason(s) (R) have been put forward. Read both the statements carefully and choose the correct alternative from the following:
Assertion (A): For the constraints of a LPP problem given by $\text{x}_1+2\text{x}_2\leq2000,\text{x}_1+\text{x}_2\leq1500,\text{x}^2\leq600$ and $\text{x}_1,\text{x}_2\geq0$ the points (1000, 0), (0, 500), (2, 0) lie in the positive bounded region, but point (2000, 0) does not lie in the positive boundedregion.
Reason (R):

  1. Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A
  2. Both A and R are true but R is NOT the correct explanation of A
  3. A is true but R is false.
  4. A is false but R is true.
Assertion (A): The area bounded by the curves $y^2=4 a^2(x-1)$ and lines $x=1$ and $y=4 a$ is $\frac{8 a}{3}$ sq. units.
Reason (R) : The area enclosed between the parabola $y^2=49 x$ and its latus rectum $\frac{8 a^2}{3}$ sq. units.
Directions: In the following questions, a statement of assertion (A) is followed by a statement of reason (R). Mark the correct choice as:
Assertion: If $\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}1&0&1\\0&1&2\\0&0&4\end{bmatrix}$ then $\mid3\text{A}\mid=9\mid\text{A}\mid.$
Reason: If A is a square matrix of order n then $\mid\text{k}\text{A}\mid=\text{k}^{\text{n}}\mid\text{A}\mid.$
  1. Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
  2. Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
  3. A is true but R is false.
  4. A is false but R is true.
  5. Both A and R are false.
Directions: In these questions, a statement of Assertion is followed by a statement of Reason is given.Choose the correct answer out of the following choices:
Assertion: $\text{I}=\int_{0}^{1}\frac{\text{dx}}{3\sqrt{1+\text{x}^3}}=\int_{0}^{{2}^\frac{-1}{3}}\frac{\text{dt}}{1-\text{t}^3}$
Reason: The integrand of the integral I becomes rational by the substitution $\text{t}=\frac{\text{x}}{3\sqrt{1+\text{x}^3}}$

Assertion (A): If $x=a t^2$ and $y=2 a t$, then $\left[\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}\right]_{t=2}=\frac{-1}{16 a}$
Reason (R): $\frac{d^2 y}{d x^2}=\left(\frac{d y}{d t}\right)^2 \times\left(\frac{d t}{d x}\right)^2$
Assertion (A) : An urn contains 5 red and 5 black balls. A ball is drawn at random, its colour is noted and is returned to the urn. Moreover, 2 additional balls of the colour drawn are put in the urn and then a ball is drawn at random. Then, the probability that the second ball is red is $\frac{1}{2}$.
Reason (R) : By Bayes' Theorem
$
\begin{array}{r}
P\left(E_1 \mid E\right)=\frac{P\left(E \mid E_1\right) P\left(E_1\right)}{P\left(E_1\right) P\left(E \mid E_1\right)+P\left(E_2\right) P\left(E \mid E_2\right)+P\left(E_3\right) P\left(E \mid E_3\right)}
