Quick Practice - Class 12 Mathematics (NCERT Core) Select any chapter below to test your problem-solving, calculus, algebra, vectors, and probability skills with 5 high-yield multiple-choice questions, instant scoring, and verified step-by-step solutions. Q1.Let set A = {1, 2, 3}. A relation R on A is defined as R = {(1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3), (1, 2), (2, 1), (2, 3)}. The relation R is: Answer: (a) Reflexive but neither symmetric nor transitive. Since (1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3) belong to R, it is reflexive. It is not symmetric because (2, 3) belongs to R but (3, 2) does not belong to R. It is not transitive because (1, 2) and (2, 3) belong to R, but (1, 3) does not belong to R.
Q2.Let f: R → R be defined by f(x) = x4. Then the function f is: Answer: (d) Neither one-one nor onto. f(-1) = f(1) = 1, so it is not one-one. The range of x4 is [0, infinity), which does not equal the codomain R (negative numbers have no pre-images), so it is not onto.
Q3.If a set A has 3 elements and set B has 2 elements, what is the total number of relations that can be defined from A to B? Answer: (b) 64 (26). Number of elements in A × B = n(A) × n(B) = 3 × 2 = 6. Total number of possible relations is the total number of subsets of A × B, which equals 26 = 64.
Q4.Let f: R → R be defined as f(x) = 3x - 4. The function f is: Answer: (a) One-one and onto (Bijective). If f(x1) = f(x2), then 3x1 - 4 = 3x2 - 4, which implies x1 = x2 (one-one). For any y in R, setting y = 3x - 4 gives x = (y + 4)/3 in R (onto). Thus, f is bijective.
Q5.The total number of equivalence relations that can be defined on the set S = {1, 2, 3} is: Answer: (c) 5. The number of equivalence relations on a set with n elements equals the Bell Number Bn. For n = 3, B3 = 5, corresponding to the 5 partitions of a 3-element set.
Q1.What is the Principal Value Branch (Range) of the function y = cos-1(x)? Answer: (b) [0, π]. The principal value branch for cos-1(x) with domain [-1, 1] is [0, π]. For sin-1(x), the principal range is [-π/2, π/2].
Q2.What is the principal value of cos-1(-1/2)? Answer: (c) 2π/3. Using the property cos-1(-x) = π - cos-1(x): cos-1(-1/2) = π - cos-1(1/2) = π - π/3 = 2π/3, which lies in the principal branch [0, π].
Q3.What is the value of sin(π/3 - sin-1(-1/2))? Answer: (a) 1. sin-1(-1/2) = -sin-1(1/2) = -π/6. Therefore: sin(π/3 - (-π/6)) = sin(π/3 + π/6) = sin(π/2) = 1.
Q4.The principal value of tan-1(tan(3π/4)) is: Answer: (d) -π/4. The range of tan-1(x) is (-π/2, π/2). Since 3π/4 is not in (-π/2, π/2), we rewrite tan(3π/4) = tan(π - π/4) = -tan(π/4) = tan(-π/4). Thus, the value is -π/4.
Q5.What is the domain of the function f(x) = sin-1(2x - 1)? Answer: (b) [0, 1]. For sin-1(θ), the argument must satisfy -1 ≤ θ ≤ 1. Here: -1 ≤ 2x - 1 ≤ 1 implies 0 ≤ 2x ≤ 2, which gives 0 ≤ x ≤ 1. Hence, the domain is [0, 1].
Q1.If A and B are symmetric matrices of the same order, then the matrix (AB - BA) is always: Answer: (a) A Skew-Symmetric Matrix. Taking the transpose: (AB - BA)T = (AB)T - (BA)T = BTAT - ATBT. Since AT = A and BT = B, this gives BA - AB = -(AB - BA). Therefore, (AB - BA) is skew-symmetric.
Q2.What is optical/total number of all possible matrices of order 3 × 3 with each entry either 0 or 1? Answer: (c) 512 (29). A 3 × 3 matrix contains 3 × 3 = 9 element positions. Since each position can independently be filled by either 0 or 1 (2 choices), total possible matrices = 29 = 512.
Q3.If matrix A = [[cosα, -sinα], [sinα, cosα]], and A + AT = I, then the value of α in (0, π) is: Answer: (b) π/3. A + AT = [[2cosα, 0], [0, 2cosα]] = [[1, 0], [0, 1]], which implies 2cosα = 1, so cosα = 1/2, giving α = π/3.
Q4.If A is a square matrix such that A2 = A, then the value of (I + A)3 - 7A is equal to: Answer: (a) I. Expanding (I + A)3 = I + 3A + 3A + A = I + 7A (since A2 = A and A3 = A). Subtracting 7A gives (I + 7A) - 7A = I.
Q5.If matrix A is of order 2 × 3 and matrix B is of order 3 × 4, then the order of matrix (AB)T is: Answer: (d) 4 × 2. Matrix product AB has order 2 × 4. Taking the transpose swaps rows and columns, giving order 4 × 2.
Q1.If A is a non-singular square matrix of order 3 × 3 and |A| = 4, then the value of |adj(A)| is: Answer: (b) 16. Formula: |adj(A)| = |A|n-1, where n is the matrix order. For n = 3 and |A| = 4: |adj(A)| = 43-1 = 42 = 16.
Q2.If A is a square matrix of order 3 and |A| = -2, what is the value of |3A|? Answer: (c) -54. For an n × n matrix, |kA| = kn|A|. Here n = 3 and k = 3, so |3A| = 33 × (-2) = 27 × (-2) = -54.
Q3.If the points (2, -3), (λ, -1), and (0, 4) are collinear, the value of λ is: Answer: (a) 10/7. The area of the triangle formed by collinear points is zero, which gives the equation -10 + 3λ + 4λ = 0, solving to 7λ = 10, so λ = 10/7.
Q4.A square matrix A is invertible if and only if A is: Answer: (b) Non-singular (|A| ≠ 0). Since A-1 = (1/|A|) adj(A), the inverse exists if and only if the determinant |A| is non-zero.
Q5.If A is an invertible matrix of order 2, then det(A-1) is equal to: Answer: (d) 1 / det(A). Since A × A-1 = I, taking determinants on both sides gives det(A) × det(A-1) = 1, leading to det(A-1) = 1 / det(A).
Q1.The function f(x) = |x - 2| at the point x = 2 is: Answer: (c) Continuous, but not differentiable. The function is continuous at x = 2, but because it has a sharp corner, the Left Hand Derivative (-1) does not equal the Right Hand Derivative (+1), making it non-differentiable there.
Q2.What is the derivative of sin(x2 + 5) with respect to x? Answer: (b) 2x cos(x2 + 5). Applying the Chain Rule: d/dx [sin(x2 + 5)] = cos(x2 + 5) × d/dx (x2 + 5) = 2x cos(x2 + 5).
Q3.If x = a cos(θ) and y = a sin(θ), then dy/dx is equal to: Answer: (a) -cot(θ). Parametric derivatives: dx/dθ = -a sin(θ) and dy/dθ = a cos(θ), yielding dy/dx = (a cos(θ)) / (-a sin(θ)) = -cot(θ).
Q4.If y = e3 log x, what is the value of dy/dx? Answer: (c) 3x2. Using log properties, y = elog(x^3) = x3. Differentiating with respect to x gives dy/dx = 3x2.
Q5.If f(x) = kx + 1 for x ≤ 5 and 3x - 5 for x > 5 is continuous at x = 5, the value of k is: Answer: (d) 9/5. For continuity at x = 5, 5k + 1 = 3(5) - 5, which evaluates to 5k + 1 = 10, giving 5k = 9 and k = 9/5.
Q1.The rate of change of the area of a circle with respect to its radius r at r = 6 cm is: Answer: (b) 12π cm2/cm. Area A = πr2. dA/dr = 2πr. At r = 6 cm, dA/dr = 2π(6) = 12π cm2/cm.
Q2.The function f(x) = x3 - 3x2 + 4x is strictly increasing on: Answer: (a) R (all real numbers). f'(x) = 3x2 - 6x + 4 = 3(x - 1)2 + 1 ≥ 1 > 0 for all x in R, so the function is strictly increasing everywhere.
Q3.What is the absolute maximum value of the function f(x) = sin x + cos x in the interval [0, π]? Answer: (c) √2. Setting f'(x) = cos x - sin x = 0 gives x = π/4. Evaluating at endpoints and critical points yields a maximum value of √2.
Q4.The point on the curve y = x2 - 2x + 7 where the tangent is parallel to the x-axis is: Answer: (b) (1, 6). Setting dy/dx = 2x - 2 = 0 gives x = 1, resulting in y = 6.
Q5.If two positive numbers x and y have a constant sum x + y = 16, their product xy is maximized when: Answer: (a) x = 8, y = 8. For a fixed sum, the product is maximized when the numbers are equal.
Q1.What is the value of the integral ∫ sec2(x) / √tan(x) dx? Answer: (b) 2√tan(x) + C. Let t = tan(x), dt = sec2(x)dx, leading to ∫ t-1/2dt = 2t1/2 + C.
Q2.What is the value of the definite integral ∫ from -π/2 to π/2 of sin7(x) dx? Answer: (d) 0. Since f(x) = sin7(x) is an odd function over symmetric limits, the integral evaluates to zero.
Q3.What is the value of ∫ ex (sin x + cos x) dx? Answer: (a) ex sin x + C. Using the standard theorem ∫ ex[f(x) + f'(x)]dx = exf(x) + C.
Q4.The value of the definite integral ∫ from 0 to π/2 of √sin(x) / (√sin(x) + √cos(x)) dx is: Answer: (c) π/4. Applying the standard definite integral property yields 2I = π/2, so I = π/4.
Q5.What is the value of ∫ 1 / (x2 + 16) dx? Answer: (b) (1/4) tan-1(x/4) + C. Using the standard formula ∫ 1/(x2 + a2) dx = (1/a) tan-1(x/a) + C with a = 4.
Q1.What is the total area enclosed by the circle x2 + y2 = a2? Answer: (a) πa2. Multiplying the area of one quadrant by 4 gives 4 × (πa2 / 4) = πa2.
Q2.The area bounded by the ellipse x2/a2 + y2/b2 = 1 is equal to: Answer: (c) πab. Integrating one quadrant and multiplying by 4 yields πab.
Q3.What is the area of the region bounded by the parabola y2 = 4x and the line x = 3? Answer: (b) 8√3 sq units. Evaluating 2 × ∫ from 0 to 3 of 2√x dx gives 8√3 sq units.
Q4.The area bounded by the curve y = cos x between x = 0 and x = π and the x-axis is: Answer: (d) 2 sq units. Area takes absolute values above and below the x-axis: 1 + 1 = 2 sq units.
Q5.What is the area bounded by the line y = 2x, the x-axis, and the vertical lines x = 0 and x = 4? Answer: (a) 16 sq units. ∫ from 0 to 4 of 2x dx evaluates to [x2] from 0 to 4, which equals 16.
Q1.What are the Order and Degree of the differential equation (d2y/dx2)3 + (dy/dx)4 + sin(dy/dx) = 0? Answer: (c) Order = 2, Degree is Not Defined. The highest derivative is d2y/dx2 (Order 2). Because of sin(dy/dx), the equation is not a polynomial in derivatives, so its degree is not defined.
Q2.What is the Integrating Factor (I.F.) for the linear differential equation dy/dx + y cot x = 2x + x2 cot x? Answer: (b) sin x. I.F. = e∫ cot x dx = elog(sin x) = sin x.
Q3.What is the general solution of the differential equation dy/dx = ex - y? Answer: (a) ey = ex + C. Separating variables: ey dy = ex dx, integrating both sides gives ey = ex + C.
Q4.The number of arbitrary constants in the particular solution of a differential equation of third order is: Answer: (d) 0. A particular solution has specific values substituted for all constants, leaving zero arbitrary constants.
Q5.Which of the following is a homogeneous differential equation of degree 0? Answer: (b) (x2 - y2) dx + 2xy dy = 0. Every term in the numerator and denominator is of homogeneous degree 2.
Q1.What is the value of λ if vectors a = 2i - j + 2k and b = 3i + λj + k are perpendicular? Answer: (c) 8. Dot product equals zero: 2(3) + (-1)(λ) + 2(1) = 0, giving 8 - λ = 0, so λ = 8.
Q2.What is the projection of vector a = i + 3j + 7k on vector b = 7i - j + 8k? Answer: (a) 60 / √114. Projection = (a · b) / |b| = (7 - 3 + 56) / √(49 + 1 + 64) = 60 / √114.
Q3.If |a| = 10, |b| = 2, and a · b = 12, then magnitude of cross product |a × b| is: Answer: (d) 16. Using |a × b|2 = |a|2|b|2 - (a · b)2 = 400 - 144 = 256, giving |a × b| = 16.
