SECTION D
CASE STUDY BASED QUESTIONS

Sherlin and Danju are playing Ludo at home. While rolling the dice, Sherlin’s
sister Raji observed and noted the possible outcome of the throw every time
belongs to the set {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}. Let A be the set of players while B be the set
of all possible outcomes. A = { S, D} , B = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}.
Based on the above information answer the following questions.

11. a) Let R be a relation on B defined by R = {(1,2), (2,2), (1,3), (3,4), (3,1), 1

(4,3), (5,5)}. Then show that R is neither reflexive nor symmetric nor
transitive.

b) Show that the relation R: B → B defined by R = {(x, y) : y is divisible by x}.
is reflexive but not symmetric.

Logarithmic differentiation is a powerful technique to differentiate functions of

the form f(x) = [𝑢(𝑥)]𝑣(𝑥) , where both u(x) and v(x) are differentiable functions
and f and u need to be positive functions.
𝑑
Let the function y = f(x) = [𝑢(𝑥)]𝑣(𝑥) then 𝑦 ′ = y 𝑑𝑥 [𝑣(𝑥)log 𝑢(𝑥)]
12.
On the basis of the above information, answer the following questions.

a) Differentiate (𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑥)𝑐𝑜𝑠𝑥 2

𝑑𝑦 2
b) If y = 𝑥 𝑥 + 𝑎 𝑥 + 𝑥 𝑎 , then find 𝑑𝑥 .
