Consider a square with vertices at $$(1,1), (-1,1), (-1,-1)$$ and $$(1, -1)$$. Let $$S$$ be the region consisting of all points inside the square which are nearer to the origin than to any edge. Sketch the region $$S$$ and find its area.

Let $${I_m} = \int\limits_0^\pi {{{1 - \cos mx} \over {1 - \cos x}}} dx.$$ Use mathematical induction to prove that $${I_m} = m\,\pi ,m = 0,1,2,........$$

The minimum value of the expression $$\sin \,\alpha + \sin \,\beta \, + \sin \,\gamma ,\,$$ where $$\alpha ,\,\beta ,\,\gamma $$ are real numbers satisfying $$\alpha + \beta + \gamma = \pi $$ is

Let '$$d$$' be the perpendicular distance from the centre of the ellipse $${{{x^2}} \over {{a^2}}} + {{{y^2}} \over {{b^2}}} = 1$$ to the tangent drawn at a point $$P$$ on the ellipse. If $${F_1}$$ and $${F_2}$$ are the two foci of the ellipse, then show that $${\left( {P{F_1} - P{F_2}} \right)^2} = 4{a^2}\left( {1 - {{{b^2}} \over {{d^2}}}} \right)$$.
