1.The points (2 , 1) and (-3 , -4) are opposite vertices of a parellelogram. If the other two vertices lie on the
line x + 9y + c = 0, then c is

2.The points (2, 5) and (6, 3) are two end points of a diagonal of a rectangle. If the other diagonal has the
equation y = 3x + c, then c is

A. – 5 B.- 6 C.- 7 D.- 8

3.The area of the closed region bounded by the equation | x | + | y | = 2 in the two-dimensional plane is

A. 4π B.4 C.8 D.2π

4.The area, in sq. units, enclosed by the lines x = 2, y = |x - 2| + 4, the X-axis and the Y-axis is equal to

A. 12 B.8 C.6 D.10

5.The vertices of a triangle are (0,0), (4,0) and (3,9). The area of the circle passing through these three
points is

A. 14π/3 B.123π/7 C.205π/9 D.12π/5

6.Let T be the triangle formed by the straight line 3x + 5y - 45 = 0 and the coordinate axes. Let the
circumcircle of T have radius of length L, measured in the same unit as the coordinate axes. Then, the
integer closest to L is

Direction :

Let A1,A2,…..An be the n points on the straight line y=px + q. The co-ordinate of AK is (xk , yk), where k= 1, 2,
3, 4….n such that x1 , x2 ,….xn are in arithmetic progression.The co-ordinates of A2 is (2 ,-2) and A24 is (68 ,
31).

8. The number of point(s) satisfying the above mentioned characteristics and not in the first quadrant
is/are

A. 1 B. 2 C. 3 D. 7 E. None of
these

1. Given five points A = (7, 4), B = (– 10, 0), C = (– 10, 3), D = (0, 10) and E = (7, 7). Every second, all the
points move by halving their abscissas and doubling their ordinates. This process continues for 500
years. After 500 years, which two points are the closest to each other?

A. A and B B. B and C C. A and E
