A person is to count 4500 currency notes. Let $${a_n}$$ denote the number of notes he counts in the $${n^{th}}$$ minute. If $${a_1}$$ = $${a_2}$$ = ....= $${a_{10}}$$= 150 and $${a_{10}}$$, $${a_{11}}$$,.... are in an AP with common difference - 2, then the time taken by him to count all notes is

There are two urns. Urn A has 3 distinct red balls and urn B has 9 distinct blue balls. From each urn two balls are taken out at random and then transferred to the other. The number of ways in which this can be done is

If $$\alpha $$ and $$\beta $$ are the roots of the equation $${x^2} - x + 1 = 0,$$ then $${\alpha ^{2009}} + {\beta ^{2009}} = $$

Let $$\cos \left( {\alpha + \beta } \right) = {4 \over 5}$$ and $$\sin \,\,\,\left( {\alpha - \beta } \right) = {5 \over {13}},$$ where $$0 \le \alpha ,\,\beta \le {\pi \over 4}.$$
Then $$tan\,2\alpha $$ =
