Q.1

Q.2280/flcd The function f (x) is defined by f (x) = cos4x + K cos22x + sin4x, where K is a constant. If the function
f (x) is a constant function, the value of k is
(A) 1
(B*) 1/2
(C) 0
(D) 1/2
[Sol. Your first impulse, like mine, might be to complete the square to get the expression
(cos2x + sin2x)2 somewhere in the problem. While this works, it is easier to substitute in two values for
x and force then to be equal, since the function is to be constant. Any two values will work, but we want
to use ones for which we know the sine and cosine. All multiples of /2 result in 1 + K, so we need to put
in one value that is not a multiple of /2. Try /4. This gives us
cos4(/4) + Kcos2(/2) + sin4(/4) = 1/4 + K 0 + 1/4 = 1/2. So now we know that
1 + K = 1/2, so K = 1/2. This does in fact give us the function
f (x) = (cos2x + sin2x)2 1/2 = 1/2

[Sol. There are 900 three digit numbers and there are five odd digits. Thus, there are 53 = 125 three digit
numbers comprised of only odd digits. The other 900 125 = 775 three digit numbers must contain at
least one even digit. ]
