In a series of 2n observations, half of them equal $$a$$ and remaining half equal $$–a$$. If the standard deviation of the observations is 2, then $$|a|$$ equals

If $$u = \sqrt {{a^2}{{\cos }^2}\theta + {b^2}{{\sin }^2}\theta } + \sqrt {{a^2}{{\sin }^2}\theta + {b^2}{{\cos }^2}\theta } $$

then the difference between the maximum and minimum values of $${u^2}$$ is given by :

The value of $$I = \int\limits_0^{\pi /2} {{{{{\left( {\sin x + \cos x} \right)}^2}} \over {\sqrt {1 + \sin 2x} }}dx} $$ is

If $$x = {e^{y + {e^y} + {e^{y + .....\infty }}}}$$ , $$x > 0,$$ then $${{{dy} \over {dx}}}$$ is
