MCQ
Assertion (A): The domain of the function $\sec ^{-1} 2 x$ is \[\left(-\infty,-\frac{1}{2}\right] \cup\left[\frac{1}{2}, \infty\right) .\] Reason $(R): \sec ^{-1}(-2)=-\frac{\pi}{4}$
  • 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.
  • D
    $A$ is false but $R$ is true.

Answer

$\sec ^{-1} x$ is defined if $x \leq-1$ or $x \geq 1$.
Hence, $\sec ^{-1} 2 x$ will be defined if $x \leq-\frac{1}{2}$ or $x \geq \frac{1}{2}$
The range of the function $\sec ^{-1} x$ is $[0, \pi]-\left\{\frac{\pi}{2}\right\}$
Hence, $A$ is true and $R$ is false.

Assertion (A) : The points $(1,2,3),(-2,3,4)$ and $(7,0,1)$ are collinear.
Reason (R): If the points $\left(x_1, y_1, z_1\right),\left(x_2, y_2, z_2\right)$ and $\left(x_3, y_3, z_3\right)$ are collinear, then
$
\frac{x_2-x_1}{x_3-x_2}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{y_3-y_2}=\frac{z_2-z_1}{z_3-z_2} .

Assertion (A) : Let $A=\{-1,1,2,3\}$ and $B=\{1,4,9\}$, where $f: A \rightarrow B$ given by $f(x)=x^2$, then $f$ is not one-one function.
Reason (R): If $x_1 \neq x_2 \Rightarrow f\left(x_1\right) \neq f\left(x_2\right)$, for every $x_1, x_2 \in$ domain, then $f$ is one-one.

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)}
