MCQ
Statement-1 $(A): \left\{\left(a^{-1}+b^{-1}\right)\left(a^{-1}-b^{-1}\right)\right\} \div\left\{\left(\frac{1}{a^{-1}}-\frac{1}{b^{-1}}\right)\left(\frac{1}{a^{-1}}+\frac{1}{b^{-1}}\right)\right\}=1$.
Statement-2 ( $R$ ): For any $a \neq 0, a^{-m}=\frac{1}{a^m}$ and $a^m=\frac{1}{a^{-m}}$.
  • A
    Statement-1 and Statement-2 are True; Statement-2 is a correct explanation for Statement-2
  • B
    Statement-1 and Statement-2 are True; Statement-2 is not a correct explanation for Statement-2
  • C
    Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is False
  • Statement-1 is False, Statement-2 is True

Answer

Correct option: D.
Statement-1 is False, Statement-2 is True
(d)
We observe that statement-2 is true.
Now,
\begin{array}{l} \left\{\left(a^{-1}+b^{-1}\right)\left(a^{-1}-b^{-1}\right)\right\} \div\left\{\left(\frac{1}{a^{-1}}-\frac{1}{b^{-1}}\right)\left(\frac{1}{a^{-1}}+\frac{1}{b^{-1}}\right)\right\} \\ =\left\{\left(\frac{1}{a}+\frac{1}{b}\right)\left(\frac{1}{a}-\frac{1}{b}\right)\right\} \div\{(a-b)(a+b)\} \\ =\left\{\left(\frac{a+b}{a b}\right)\left(\frac{b-a}{a b}\right)\right\} \div\{(a-b)(a+b)\}=-\frac{(a-b)(a+b)}{a^2 b^2} \div(a-b)(a+b)=-\frac{1}{a^2 b^2} \end{array}
So, statement-1 is not true. hence, option (d) is correct.

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: If the median of the given data $26, 29, 42, 53, x, x + 2, 70, 75, 82, 93,$ is $65$ then the value of $x$ is $64.$
Reason: When the number of observations (n) is odd the median is the value of the$\Big(\frac{(\text{n}+1)}{2}\Big)$ observation.
Statement-1 (A): If $x+1$ is a factor of $f(x)=p x^2+5 x+r$ then $p+r+5=0$.
Statement-2 (R): If $x-2$ and $2 x-1$ are factors of $f(x)=p x^2+5 x+r$, then $p=r$.
Directions: In the following questions, the Assertions  and Reason(s) $(R)$ have been put forward. Read both the statements carefully and choose the correct alternative from the following:
Assertion: $(-7, 0)$ the point on the $x -$ axis which is equidistant from $(2, -5)$ and $(- 2, 9)$.
Reason: $5$ or $-6$ are the values of $y$ for which the distance between the points $P(2, -3)$ and $Q(10, y)$ is $10$ units.
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: In the given figure, if $O$ is the centre of circle and $ \angle\text{POQ}=110^\circ,$ then $ \angle\text{PRQ}=55^\circ$

Reason: Angle subtended by an arc at the centre is double the angle subtended by it at the remaining part of the circle.
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: Median of the given data $34, 31, 42, 43, 46, 25, 39, 45, 32,$ is $39.$
Reason : When the number of observations $(n)$ is even, the median is the mean of the $\big(\frac{\text{n}}{2}\big)^\text{th}$ and $\big(\frac{\text{n}}{2}+1\big)^\text{th}$ observations.
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: In $ \triangle\text{ABC},$ $\angle\text{C}=\angle\text{A},$ $BC = 4\ cm$ and $AC = 5\ cm$. Then, $AB = 4\ cm$.
Reason: In a triangle, angles opposite to two equal sides are equal.
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: $\angle\text{A}$ and $\angle\text{B}$ are supplementary angles.$ \angle\text{A}=\text{x}+10^\circ$ and $\angle\text{B}=\text{x}−10^\circ$ then $∠A$ and $∠B$ are $100^\circ$ and $80^\circ$.
Reason: The angles $x - 10^\circ $ and $190^\circ - x$ are supplementary.

Assertion: Total surface area of cylinder having radius of the base $14\ cm$ and height $30\ cm$ is $3872\ cm^2$
Reason: If r be the radius and h be the height of the cylinder then the total surface area $=(2\pi\text{rh}+2\pi\text{r}^2)$
