The coefficient of x²⁵⁶ in the expansion of

(1 $$-$$ x)¹⁰¹ (x² + x + 1)¹⁰⁰ is :

Let $$A = [{a_{ij}}]$$ be a 3 $$\times$$ 3 matrix, where $${a_{ij}} = \left\{ {\matrix{ 1 & , & {if\,i = j} \cr { - x} & , & {if\,\left| {i - j} \right| = 1} \cr {2x + 1} & , & {otherwise.} \cr } } \right.$$

Let a function f : R $$\to$$ R be defined as f(x) = det(A). Then the sum of maximum and minimum values of f on R is equal to:

Let $$\overrightarrow a = 2\widehat i + \widehat j - 2\widehat k$$ and $$\overrightarrow b = \widehat i + \widehat j$$. If $$\overrightarrow c $$ is a vector such that $$\overrightarrow a .\,\overrightarrow c = \left| {\overrightarrow c } \right|,\left| {\overrightarrow c - \overrightarrow a } \right| = 2\sqrt 2 $$ and the angle between $$(\overrightarrow a \times \overrightarrow b )$$ and $$\overrightarrow c $$ is $${\pi \over 6}$$, then the value of $$\left| {\left( {\overrightarrow a \times \overrightarrow b } \right) \times \overrightarrow c } \right|$$ is :

The number of real roots of the equation $${\tan ^{ - 1}}\sqrt {x(x + 1)} + {\sin ^{ - 1}}\sqrt {{x^2} + x + 1} = {\pi \over 4}$$ is :
