Show that is an equivalence relation and find the equivalence class .
According to recent research, air turbulence has increased in various regions around the world due to climate change. Turbulence makes flights bumpy and often delays the flights. Assume that an airplane observes severe turbulence, moderate turbulence or light turbulence with equal probabilities. Further, the chance of an airplane reaching late to the destination are , and due to severe, moderate and light turbulence respectively.
On the basis of the above information, answer the following questions:
(i) Find the probability that an airplane reached its destination
(ii)If the airplane reached its destination late, find the probability that it was due to moderate turbulence.
The traffic police has installed Over Speed Violation Detection (OSVD) system at various locations in a city. These cameras can capture a speeding vehicle from a distance of 300 m and even function in the dark. A camera is installed on a pole at the height of 5 m. It detects a car travelling away from the pole at the speed of 20 m/s. At any point, m away from the base of the pole, the angle of elevation of the speed camera from the car C is .
On the basis of the above information, answer the following questions:
(i)Express in terms of the height of the camera installed on the pole and x.
(ii) Find .
(iii) (a) Find the rate of change of angle of elevation with respect to time at an instant when the car is 50 m away from the pole.
(iii) (b) If the rate of change of angle of elevation with respect to time of another car at a distance of 50 m from the base of the pole is , then find the speed of the car.
If a function defined as is one-one and onto, then we can define a unique function such that , where and , . Function is called the inverse of function .
The domain of sine function is and function sine : is neither one-one nor onto. The following graph shows the sine function. Let sine function be defined from set to such that inverse of sine function exists, i.e., is defined from to .
On the basis of the above information, answer the following questions:
(i) If is the interval other than principal value branch, give an example of one such interval.
(ii) If is defined from to its principal value branch, find the value of .
(iii) Draw the graph of from to its principal value branch.
(iv) Find the domain and range of .
Reason (R): .
The following graph is a combination of: 
Let be a relation defined by . List the elements of . Is a function? Justify your answer.
A carpenter needs to make a wooden cuboidal box, closed from all sides, which has a square base and fixed volume. Since he is short of the paint required to paint the box on completion, he wants the surface area to be minimum.
On the basis of the above information, answer the following questions :
Find a relation between and such that the surface area is minimum.
During the festival season, a mela was organized by the Resident Welfare Association at a park near the society. The main attraction of the mela was a huge swing, which traced the path of a parabola given by the equation:
A school is organizing a debate competition with participants as speakers and judges. where represents the set of speakers. The judges are represented by the set: where represents the set of judges. Each speaker can be assigned only one judge. Let be a relation from set to defined as: .
