Matrix-Match Type Questions: Vector Algebra and Three Dimensional Geometry - 1 | JEE Advanced | 35 Years Chapter wise Previous Year Solved Papers for JEE PDF Download

DIRECTIONS (Q. 1-6) :  Each question contains statements given in two columns, which have to be matched. The statements in Column-I are labelled A, B, C and D, while the statements in Column-II are labelled p, q, r, s and t. Any given statement in Column-I can have correct matching with ONE OR MORE statement(s) in Column-II. The appropriate bubbles corresponding to the answers to these questions have to be darkened as illustrated in the following example :

If the correct matches are A-p, s and t; B-q and r; C-p and q; and D-s then the correct darkening of bubbles will look like the given.

Q. 1. Match the following :

(A) Two rays x + y = |a| and ax – y = 1 intersects each other in the                       (p) 2
 first quadrant in the interval a ∈ (a₀, ∞), the value of a₀ is

(B) Point (α , β , γ) lies on the plane x + y + z = 2.                                                     (q) 4/3

(C)                                                                                      (r) 

(D) If sinA sinB sinC + cosA cosB = 1, then the value of sinC =                             (s) 1

Ans. (A) → s; (B) → p; (C) → r, q; (D) → s

Solution. (A) On solving the given equations x + y = |a| and ax – y = 1, we get

∴ Rays intersect each other in I quad.
 

(B) (α, β, γ) lies on the plane x + y + z = 2
⇒ α + β + γ = 2

i.e., y² = (x + 1) represent same area under the given limits]

(D) Given : sin A sin B sin C + cos A cos B = 1

But sin A sin B sin C + cos A cos B < sin A sin B + cos

A cos B = cos (A – B)

⇒ cos (A – B) > 1  ⇒ cos (A – B) =1
⇒ A – B  = 0 ⇒ A = B

∴ Given relation becomes sin²A sin C + cos² A = 1

⇒ sin C = 1,

(D) → (s)

Q. 2. Consider the following linear equations ax + by + cz = 0; bx + cy + az = 0;    cx + ay + bz = 0 

Match the conditions/expressions in Column I with statements in Column II and indicate your answer by darkening the appropriate bubbles in the 4 × 4 matrix given in the ORS.

Column I                                                                                                 Column II

(A) a + b + c ≠ 0 and a² + b² + c² = ab + bc + ca                                (p) the equations represent planes meeting only at asingle point

(B) a + b + c = 0 and a² + b² + c² ≠ ab + bc + ca                               (q) the equations represent the line x = y = z.

(C) a + b + c ≠ 0 and a² + b² + c² ≠ ab + bc + ca                               (r) the equations represent identical planes.

(D) a + b + c = 0 and a² + b² + c² = ab + bc + ca                               (s) the equations represent the whole of the three dimensional space.

Ans. (A) → r; (B) → q; (C) → p; (D) → s

Solution. Here we have, the determinant of the coefficient matrix of given equation, as

This equation represent identical planes.

(B) a +b +c = 0 and a² + b²+ c² - ab - bc - ca ≠ 0

⇒ Δ = 0 and a, b, c are not all equal.

∴ All equations are not identical but have infinite many solutions.

∴ ax + by = (a+ b)z (using a+b+c = 0) and bx + cy = (b+ c)z

⇒ (b² - ac) y = (b²- ac)z ⇒ y = z

⇒ ax + by + cy= 0 ⇒ ax = ay ⇒ x = y

⇒ x = y = z 

∴ The equations represent the line x = y = z

(C) a + b + c ≠ 0 and a² + b²+ c² - ab - bc - ca ≠ 0

⇒ Δ ≠ 0 ⇒ Equations have only trivial solution i.e., x = y = z = 0

∴ the equations represents the three planes meeting at a single point namely origin.

(D) a +b +c= 0 and a² + b²+ c² - ab - bc - ca = 0

⇒ a = b = c and Δ = 0 ⇒ a = b = c = 0

⇒ All equations are satisfied by all x, y, and z.

⇒ The equations represent the whole of the three dimensional space (all points in 3–D)

Ans. A → q,s; B → p,r,s, t; C → t; D→ r

Solution.

(A) The given equation is

(B) We know that [x] is discontinuous at all integral values, therefore   discontinuous at  and π. Also  cos   for any of these values of x.

Clearly the two curves meet only at one point, therefore the given equation has only one solution in

(B) Three given planes are

kx + 4 y +z = 0
4x + ky + 2z = 0
2x + 2 y +z = 0

Clearly all the planes pass through (0,0,0).

∴ Their line of intersection also pass through (0, 0, 0) Let a, b, c, be the direction ratios of required line, then we should have

ka + 4b +c = 0
4a + kb + 2c = 0
2a + 2b +c = 0

For the required line to exist the above system of equations in a, b, c, should have non trivial solution i.e.
