If x, y, z are in arithmetic progression with common difference d, x $$\ne$$ 3d, and the determinant of the matrix $$\left[ {\matrix{ 3 & {4\sqrt 2 } & x \cr 4 & {5\sqrt 2 } & y \cr 5 & k & z \cr } } \right]$$ is zero, then the value of k² is :

Let y = y(x) be the solution of the differential equation

$$\cos x(3\sin x + \cos x + 3)dy = (1 + y\sin x(3\sin x + \cos x + 3))dx,0 \le x \le {\pi \over 2},y(0) = 0$$. Then, $$y\left( {{\pi \over 3}} \right)$$ is equal to :

Let $$A = \left[ {\matrix{ a & b \cr c & d \cr } } \right]$$ and $$B = \left[ {\matrix{ \alpha \cr \beta \cr } } \right] \ne \left[ {\matrix{ 0 \cr 0 \cr } } \right]$$ such that AB = B and a + d = 2021, then the value of ad $$-$$ bc is equal to ___________.

Let the coefficients of third, fourth and fifth terms in the expansion of $${\left( {x + {a \over {{x^2}}}} \right)^n},x \ne 0$$, be in the ratio 12 : 8 : 3. Then the term independent of x in the expansion, is equal to ___________.
