Let a, b and $$\lambda $$ be positive real numbers. Suppose P is an end point of the latus return of the
parabola y² = 4$$\lambda $$x, and suppose the ellipse $${{{x^2}} \over {{a^2}}} + {{{y^2}} \over {{b^2}}} = 1$$ passes through the point P. If the tangents to the parabola and the ellipse at the point P are perpendicular to each other, then the eccentricity of the ellipse is

Let C₁ and C₂ be two biased coins such that the probabilities of getting head in a single toss are $${{2 \over 3}}$$ and $${{1 \over 3}}$$, respectively. Suppose $$\alpha $$ is the number of heads that appear when C₁ is tossed twice, independently, and suppose $$\beta $$ is the number of heads that appear when C₂ is tossed twice, independently. Then the probability that the roots of the quadratic polynomial x² $$-$$ ax + $$\beta $$ are real and equal, is

Consider the rectangles lying the region

$$\left\{ {(x,y) \in R \times R:0\, \le \,x\, \le \,{\pi \over 2}} \right.$$ and $$\left. {0\, \le \,y\, \le \,2\sin (2x)} \right\}$$

and having one side on the X-axis. The area of the rectangle which has the maximum perimeter among all such rectangles, is

Let the function f : R $$ \to $$ R be defined by f(x) = x³ $$-$$ x² + (x $$-$$ 1)sin x and let g : R $$ \to $$ R be an arbitrary function. Let fg : R $$ \to $$ R be the product function defined by (fg)(x) = f(x)g(x). Then which of the following statements is/are TRUE?
