Question 1.
Find the value of cos 2A , A lies in the first quadrant when
(i) cos A = \(\frac{15}{17}\)
Answer:
we know sin² A + cos² A = 1
sin² A = 1 – cos² A

Since A lies in the first quadrant, sin A is positive
∴ sin A = \(\frac{8}{17}\)
cos 2A = cos² A – sin² A

(ii) sin A = \(\frac{4}{5}\)
Answer:
we know sin² A + cos² A = 1
cos² A = 1 – sin²A


Since A lies in the first quadrant, cos A is positive
∴ cos A = \(\frac{3}{5}\)
cos 2A = cos² A – sin² A

(iii) tan A = \(\frac{16}{63}\)
Answer:

Question 2.
If θ be an acute angle, find
(i) sin \(\left(\frac{\pi}{4}-\frac{\theta}{2}\right)\), when sin θ = \(\frac{1}{25}\)
(ii) cos \(\left(\frac{\pi}{4}+\frac{\theta}{2}\right)\), when sin θ = \(\frac{8}{9}\)
Answer:
(i) sin \(\left(\frac{\pi}{4}-\frac{\theta}{2}\right)\), when sin θ = \(\frac{1}{25}\)

(ii) cos \(\left(\frac{\pi}{4}+\frac{\theta}{2}\right)\), when sin θ = \(\frac{8}{9}\)

Question 3.
If cos θ =\(\frac{1}{2}\left(a+\frac{1}{a}\right)\), show that cos 3θ = \(\frac{1}{2}\left(a^{3}+\frac{1}{a^{3}}\right)\)
Answer:

Question 4.
Prove that
cos 5θ = 16 cos⁵θ – 20 cos³θ + 5 cos θ
Answer:

Question 5.
Prove that sin 4α = 4 tan α \(\frac{1-\tan ^{2} \alpha}{\left(1+\tan ^{2} \alpha\right)^{2}}\)
Answer:

Question 6.
If A + B = 45°, show that (1 + tan A) (1 + tan B) = 2
Answer:
Given A + B = 45°
tan(A + B) = tan 45°

tan A + tan B = 1 – tan A . tan B —— (1)
(1 + tan A)(1 + tan B) = 1 + tan B + tan A + tan A tan B
= 1 + (tan A + tan B) + tan A tan B
= 1 + 1 – tan A tan B + tan A tan B (By equation (1))
= 2

Question 7.
Prove that (1 + tan 1°) (1 + tan 2°) (1 + tan 3°) …….. (1 + tan 44°) is a multiple of 4.
Answer:
1 + tan 44° = 1 + tan (45° – 1°)

(1 + tan 1°)(1 + tan 44°) = 2
Similarly (1 + tan 2°) (1 + tan 43°) = 2
(1 + tan 3°) (1 + tan 42°) = 2
(1 + tan 22°) (1 + tan 23°) = 2
= (1 + tan 1°) (1 + tan 2°)… (1 + tan 44°) = 2 × 2 × … 22 times
It is a multiple of 4.

Question 8.
Prove that tan \(\left(\frac{\pi}{4}+\theta\right)\) – tan \(\left(\frac{\pi}{4}-\theta\right)\) = 2 tan 2θ
Answer:

Question 9.
Show that

Answer:

 A True Friend Summary in English and Tamil

Nandhini and Pandi were good friends since childhood. They lived in the same street, so they were always together. Every day Pandi would stop at her home on the way to school. Both would walk to school chatting and playing. Sometimes, they would race home from school.They always took part in school activities together. They helped each other in their lessons.

நந்தினியும், பாண்டியும் சிறுவயதிலிருந்தே நல்ல நண்பர்கள். ஒரே தெருவில் வசித்து வந்த அவர்கள் இருவரும் எப்போதும் ஒன்றாகவே இருப்பார்கள். எப்போதும் பள்ளிக்கு செல்லும் வழியில், பாண்டி அவள் வீட்டின் முன் நிற்பான். இருவரும் நன்றாக பேசிக்கொண்டும், விளையாடிக் கொண்டும் பள்ளிக்கு செல்வர். சில நேரம் பள்ளியிலிருந்து அவர்கள் ஓட்டமாய் வீட்டிற்கு வந்து சேருவர். பள்ளி நடவடிக்கைகளில்இருவரும் இணைந்து பங்கு பெறுவர். பாடங்களில் ஒருவருக்கு ஒருவர் உதவிக் கொள்வர்.

One day, as usual, Pandi came to Nandhini’s home. She looked upset and sad Pandi asked her “Why are you sad?”, she did not answer. Instead, she shook her head. “Did your parents scold you?”, asked Pandi. She did not answer him. He grabbed her bag and said excitedly, “Catch me if you can.” But she did not respond. Pandi stopped and gave the bag back. They walked silently to the school.

ஒரு நாள் வழக்கம் போல் பாண்டி, நந்தினியின்வீட்டிற்கு வந்தான். அவள் வருத்தமும், சோகமுமாக இருப்பதைக் கண்டு பாண்டி அவளிடம், “நீ ஏன் வருத்தமாய் இருக்கிறாய்?” என கேட்க, அதற்கு அவள் பதிலளிக்கவில்லை . அதற்கு பதில், தலையை குலுக்கினாள். “உன் பெற்றோர் உன்னை திட்டினரா?” என்று பாண்டி கேட்டான். அதற்கும் அவள் பதில் தரவில்லை . அவன் அவளுடைய பையை பிடித்து இழுத்துக் கொண்டு “முடிந்தால் என்னை பிடி பார்ப்போம்” என உற்சாகமாக கூறினான். அதற்கும் அவள் பதிலளிக்கவில்லை. பாண்டி நின்று பையை அவளிடம் கொடுத்தான். பின்னர் இருவரும் அமைதியாக பள்ளிக்குச் சென்றனர்.

Nandhini walked into the classroom slowly. Her eyes glued to the ground. She looked sad, “Did someone scold you?”, asked one of her friends in class.’Nandhini shook her head. She sat down, with her head bowed down. The teacher entered the classroom and started calling out the names for attendance. Nandhini did not answer when the teacher called her name.

நந்தினி மெதுவாக வகுப்பிற்கு நடந்து சென்றாள். அவள் கண்கள் தரையை நோக்கியே இருந்தன. சோகமாக இருந்த அவளிடம், தோழிகளில் ஒருத்தி “உன்னையாராவது திட்டினாரா?” என்று கேட்டாள். நந்தினி தலையை குலுக்கினாள். பின்னர் தலை குனிந்து கீழே அமர்ந்தாள். ஆசிரியர் வகுப்பில் நுழைந்து வருகைப் பதிவை பார்த்து பெயர்களை அழைக்க ஆரம்பித்தார். அவளது பெயரை அழைத்த போது நந்தினி பதிலளிக்கவில்லை

The teacher was annoyed. This time she called her name louder, “Nandhini!” and then, she raised her hand but did not answer. The teacher went near Nandhini. She touched her forehead and asked, “Are you feeling okay?” Nandhini shook her head. Her cheeks were red, and it looked like she had a fever. “Do you have a fever? Shall I call your parents?” asked the teacher. She shook her head, but she still did not look at anyone. Her head was still bowed down.

எரிச்சல் அடைந்த ஆசிரியர் இந்த முறை அவள் பெயரை உரக்க “நந்தினி” என அழைத்தார். அவள் கையை உயர்த்தினாளே தவிர, பதிலளிக்கவில்லை . ஆசிரியர், நந்தினியின் அருகில் சென்று அவள் முன் நெற்றியை தொட்டு “நீ நன்றாக இருக்கிறாயா?” என்று கேட்டதும், நந்தினி தலையை குலுக்கினாள். அவள் கன்னங்கள் சிவந்திருந்தன, அவளுக்கு ஜூரம் வந்தது போல காணப்பட்டாள். “உனக்கு ஜூரமா, நான் உன் பெற்றோரை அழைக்கட்டுமா?” என்று ஆசிரியர் கேட்டார். அவள் தலையை மட்டும் குலுக்கினாள். யாரையும்|பார்க்கவில்லை . அவள் தலை குனிந்தபடியே இருந்தது.

“Why does Nandhini look so sad?” exclaimed her friends. Her friends pestered her with a hundred questions! The questions were about you think about, they asked her family, her house, her shoes and even about her street pets. Each question that she was asked, Nandhini only answered by shaking her head.

“நந்தினி ஏன் சோகமாக இருக்கிறாள்?” என நண்பர்கள் ஆச்சிரியப்பட்டனர். அவள் நண்பர்கள் அவளிடம் நூறு கேள்விகள் கேட்டனர்! வீடு, குடும்பம், காலணிகள், பிடித்த தெரு விலங்குகள் உட்பட அவர்களுக்கு தோன்றிய அனைத்தைப் பற்றியும் கேள்வி கேட்டனர். கேட்கப்பட்ட ஒவ்வொரு கேள்விக்கும் நந்தினி தலையை மட்டும் குலுக்கினாள்.

Pandi had enough of Nandhini’s silence. He had never seen her so dull. He wanted an idea to make her smile. He thought and thought for many hours. Finally, he had an idea! He took out something from bag and ran to show it to her. He tumbled, and his it slipped from his hands. It was flying straight to Nandhini. She saw something flying towards her and screamed with fear. She closed her eyes and tried to catch it. THUD! She caught it. It was a biggreen frog. Everyone ran away as they were scared of the frog.

நந்தினியின் மௌனம் பாண்டியை வருத்தியது. அவன் எப்போதுமே நந்தினி மந்தமாக இருந்து பார்த்ததில்லை. அவளை சிரிக்க வைக்க அவன் யோசித்தான். பல மணி நேரம் யோசித்ததில் ஓர் எண்ண ம் தோன்றியது. தன் பையில் இருந்து ஒரு பொருளை எடுத்து நந்தினியிடம் காட்ட ஒடினான். அதற்குள் அவன் தடுமாறி விழுந்து விடவே, அவனது கையிலிருந்து அது நழுவி நேராக நந்தினியை நோக்கிப் பறந்தது. ஏதோ ஒன்று தன்னை நோக்கி பறந்து வருவதை கண்ட நந்தினி பயத்தில் கூச்சலிட்டாள். தன் கண்களை மூடிக் கொண்டு, | அதை பிடிக்க முற்பட்டாள். அதை பிடித்தே விட்டாள்! அது ஒரு பெரிய பச்சை தவளை. அனைவரும் அந்த தவளையைப் பார்த்து பயந்து ஓட்டம் பிடித்தனர்.

Nandhini’s eyes were wide open with surprise. Then, she burst into laughter.It was a rubber frog! As soon as she laughed, her friends and teacher knew why she did not smile or talk to anyone all day. Two of her front teeth were missing!

நந்தினியின் கண்கள் ஆச்சரியத்தால் விரிந்தன. உடனே அவள் பலமாக சிரித்தாள். அது ஒரு ரப்பர் தவளை ஆகும். அவள் சிரித்தவுடன்தான் ஆசிரியர் மற்றும் அவளது நண்பர்களுக்கு அவள் ஏன் யாருடனும் பேசவில்லை , சிரிக்கவில்லை என தெரிந்தது. அது என்ன வென்றால், அவளது முன்பற்களில் இரண்டைக் காணவில்லை!

He asked, “Was your camel blind in the right eye?”. “Yes, he was”, said the merchants. “Was it lame in one left foot?”, asked the boy. It was!”, said the merchants. “Was it’s front tooth missing?” asked the boy.” yes,” they said. “Did it have honey on one side and wheat on the other?”. “yes!,” they answered. “Please take us to it.”

“But, I have not seen your camel,” said the boy “and I do not know where it is”. The merchants got angry and said, “Really! How could you tell us everything about our camel?” “That is my secret”. said the boy.

The merchants took him to the king. The boy told the king that he had not seen it. Then, the king asked him how he knew so much about it. The boy said that the camel had eaten grass only on the left side of the path. So he knew that it was blind. The marks of its one left foot were faint.

This showed that the camel was lame. While eating grass, it had not eaten the grass in the middle. So he learnt that it had lost its front teeth. There were ants carrying grains of wheat on one side of the path and flies eating honey on the other.”

The Witty Sparrow Summary in English and Tamil

Once, a very clever brown sparrow lived in a forest had three eggs in her nest. The nest was in a bush. All the animals greeted her ‘Madam’ with respect. Gullu, the young elephant never did so. THUD! THUD! Gullu walked past the bush purposefully. It rattled the nest. Madam was worried that Gullu might crack the eggs.

ஒரு காலத்தில் ஒரு புத்திசாலியான பழுப்புநிறக் குருவி காட்டில் வாழ்ந்து வந்தது. புதரில் இருந்த அதன் கூட்டில் மூன்று முட்டைகள் இருந்தன. எல்லா விலங்குகளும் மரியாதையாக அந்தக்குருவியை ‘மேடம்’ என்று அழைத்தனர். ஆனால் குல்லு என்ற இளம் யானை ஒருபோதும் அப்படி செய்யவில்லை. வேண்டுமென்றே குல்லு தட தட வென்று புதரைக் கடந்து செல்லும். அதனால் கூடு அதிரும். இதனால் முட்டைகள் கீறல் விழுந்துவிடுமோ என குருவி கவலைப்பட்டது.

Sparrow to Elephant: If you do this tomorrow. I will tie you up with a strong rope and then, You can’t move at all. I warn you.

குருவி யானையிடம்: நாளை இதேமாதிரி நீ தடதடவென நடந்தால், நான் உன்னை பலமான கயிற்றைக் கொண்டு கட்டிவைத்து ”விடுவேன். உன்னால் அசையவே முடியாது. நான் உன்னை எச்சரிக்கிறேன்.

Elephant (யானை):
Tie me up!
Ha…ha…ha…
We will see.

ஹா! ஹா! என்னை கட்டி வைப்பாயா? பார்ப்போம்.

That afternoon, she went to the river bank to drink water. A crocodile was stretching in the spot she was drinking water.
Sparrow to Crocodile: Blocking me again? You have done it twice this week. Move on, I don’t want to drink muddy water.
Crocodile to Sparrow: Move on, did you say? I will stay put, you better go elsewhere to drink water.

மத்தியானம் குருவி ஆற்றங்கரைக்கு நீர் குடிக்க சென்றது. அது நீர் அருந்தும் இடத்தில் ஒரு முதலை படுத்து இருந்தது.
குருவி: மறுபடி என்னை வழிமறிக்கிறாயா? இந்த வாரத்தில் இரண்டு முறை இப்படி செய்துவிட்டாய். விலகு, நான் சேற்று நீரை குடிக்க விரும்பவில்லை.
முதலை: விலகு என்றா சொன்னாய்? நான் இங்கு தான் இருப்பேன். நீ வேறு இடத்திற்கு சென்று தண்ணீ ர் குடி.

Sparrow to Crocodile: Today, I will let you be. But if I find you in the same place tomorrow. I will tie you up with a strong rope.
Crocodile to Sparrow: The sparrow went to her nest and started thinking furiously.

குருவி முதலையிடம்: இன்று உன்னை விட்டுவிடுகிறேன். ஆனால் நாளை உன்னை இதே இடத்தில் நான் பார்த்தால், பலமான கயிற்றால் உன்னை கட்டிவிடுவேன்.
முதலை: சிறு ஜீவனான நீ என்னைக் கட்டுவாயா? ஹா… ஹா….
குருவி தன் கூட்டிற்கு சென்றது. அதற்கு புத்திசாலித்தனமான ஒரு யோசனை கிடைத்தது.

The next morning, Gullu came thumping towards the bush.
Elephant to Sparrow: HEY! Are you not tying me up?
Sparrow to Elephant: How dare you! Aren’t you afraid of me? Just wait.

மறுநாள் காலை, யானை தடதடவென்று புதரை நோக்கி வந்தது.
என்னிடம் உனக்கு பயம் இல்லையா? இங்கே சிறிது
யானை குருவியிடம்: “ஏய் நீ என்னை கட்டவில்லையா?”
குருவி யானையிடம்: “என்ன தைரியம் உனக்கு? காத்திரு”.

The sparrow took a strong creeper and tied the elephant on one end. USHHHHH! Don’t you dare to move? Stay here, until I fly and reach the other end of the rope to pull you. When I say ‘pull’, pull with all your strength. Let us see if you can move an inch.

குருவி ஒரு பலமான தாவரக் கொடியை எடுத்து வந்து அதன் ஒரு முனையில் யானையை கட்டியது.
குருவி யானையிடம்: “உஷ்! உன்னை இழுக்க கயிற்றின் மறுமுனைக்கு நான் பறந்து செல்லும் வரை, நீ அசையாமல் இங்கேயே இரு. நான் இழு என்று சொல்லும் போது உன் முழு பலத்துடன் இழு. உன்னால் ஓர் அங்குலமாவது நகர முடிகிறதா என்று பார்ப்போம்.

It went to the river, saw the crocodile blocking its way.
Crocodile to Sparrow: I will not move! Just like yesterday, drink the muddy water.

குருவி ஆற்றுக்கு சென்றது. முதலை மறுபடியும் அதன் வழியில் குறுக்கிடுவதைக் கண்டது.
முதலை குருவியிடம்: “நான் நேற்றுப் போலவே சிறிது கூட அசைய மாட்டேன். நீ சேற்று நீரை குடி.”

Sparrow took the other end of the creeper and tied the crocodile.
Sparrow to Crocodile: I warned you yesterday. Now stay still, until I grab the other end. When I say ‘Pull’, let’s see if you are able to pull or not.

குருவி, தாவரக் கொடியின் மறுமுனையை எடுத்து வந்து முதலையை கட்டியது.
குருவி முதலையிடம்: “நான் நேற்றே உன்னை எச்சரித்தேன். இப்பொழுது நான் மறு முனையை பற்றி, இழுக்கும்வரை அசையாமல் இரு. நான் ‘இழு’ என்று சொல்லும்போது உன்னால் இழுக்க முடிகிறதா இல்லையா என பார்க்கலாம்.”

Sparrow went to the center of the creeper. Pull The elephant and the crocodile pulled each other at the same time.

குருவி, கொடியின் மையப் பகுதிக்கு சென்றது. ‘இழு’ என்று சத்தமிட்டது. யானையும், முதலையும் ஒரே சமயத்தில் ஒன்றையொன்று இழுத்தன.

This went on all day. Both the animals were exhausted.
Elephant to Sparrow: Please let me go. I won’t disturb you again…
Crocodile to Sparrow: Untie me! I won’t stand in your way.
Sparrow : Good, I will remove the rope. Gullu ran into the forest and the crocodile dived into the river. Soon the eggs hatched. Madam Sparrow lived happily with her three little babies.

நாள் முழுவதும் இப்படியே இழுத்துக் கொண்டு இருந்தன. முடிவில் இரண்டு விலங்குகளும் களைப்படைந்தன.
யானை குருவியிடம்: “தயவு செய்து என்னை விட்டுவிடு. நான் மறுபடியும் உன்னை தொந்தரவு செய்யமாட்டேன்,
முதலை குருவியிடம்: “என்னை கட்டவிழ்த்து விடு நான் மறுபடியும் உன் வழியில் குறுக்கிடமாட்டேன்”.

குருவி: இப்பொழுது நான் கொடி கயிற்றை எடுத்து விடுகிறேன். யானை குல்லு காட்டிற்குள் ஓடிவிட்டது. முதலையும் ஆற்றில் நீந்திச் சென்றுவிட்டது. விரைவில் குருவியின் முட்டைகள் பொறிந்தன. குருவி தன் மூன்று குருவிக்குஞ்சுகளுடன் மகிழ்ச்சியாக வாழ்ந்தது.

Five Detectives Summary in English and Tamil

It was a sunny afternoon, after a long time in Ooty. Arul and Amudha were sitting on their balcony. The last three vacations were very exciting for them as they were involved in solving three mysterious cases in their city. They missed their friends – Sreejith, Jessy, and Fathima.

வெகு நாட்களுக்குப் பின் அன்று ஊட்டியில் ஒரு வெயிலான மத்தியானம். அருளும் அமுதாவும் தங்கள் உப்பரிக்கையில் அமர்ந்து இருந்தனர். நகரத்தின் மூன்று மர்மமான வழக்குகளை தீர்ப்பதில் ஈடுபட்டு இருந்தபடியால் அவர்களுக்கு கடந்த மூன்று விடுமுறைகளும் மிக உற்சாகமாக கழிந்தன. அவர்கள் தங்கள் நண்பர்கள் ஸ்ரீஜித், ஜெஸ்ஸி மற்றும் பாத்திமாவை இம்முறை மிகவும் தேடி தவித்தார்கள்.

They called themselves ‘The Five Detectives’ or 5D. They were famous in Ooty for their courage and skill. The police appreciated 5D for their admirable acts. Amudha and Arul missed Pablo. Pablo was Sreejith’s dog. He played an important role in solving the mysteries.

அவர்கள் தங்களை “ஐந்து துப்பறிவாளர்கள்” என அழைத்துக் கொண்டனர். அவர்கள் தங்கள் திறனுக்கும் தைரியத்துக்கும் ஊட்டியில் பெயர் பெற்று விளங்கினர். அவர்களின் போற்றதக்க நடவடிக்கைகளுக்காக காவல் துறையினர் 50 யை பாராட்டினர். அமுதாவும் அருளும் பப்லோவை இழந்து தவித்தார்கள். பப்லோ ஸ்ரீஜித்தின் நாய். அதற்கு மர்மங்களை விடுவிப்பதில் ஒரு முக்கிய பங்கு உண்டு.

After a week (ஒரு வாரத்திற்கு பின்பு):

Sreejith, Jessy, Fathima and Pablo came to Amudha and Arul’s house. Pablo was jumping with joy and continuously wagging his tail.
Amudha: I am so happy to see you all.
Arul: Now we can all head to solve a mystery. It will make our vacation interesting.
Sreejith: Mystery? Did something happen in the town while I was gone?
Arul: No, Sree. Nothing at all.

ஸ்ரீஜித், ஜெஸ்ஸி, பாத்திமா மற்றும் பப்லோவும் அமுதா மற்றும் அருளின் இல்லத்திற்கு வந்தனர். பப்லோ மகிழ்ச்சியில் குதித்து, தொடர்ந்து தன் வாலை ஆட்டியது.
அமுதா: எனக்கு உங்கள் அனைவரையும் காண்பதில் மிக்க மகிழ்ச்சி.
அருள: இப்பொழுது நாம் அனைவரும் ஒரு மர்மத்தை விடுவிக்க முனைவோம். அது நம் விடுமுறையை சுவாரஸ்யமாக்கும்.
ஸ்ரீஜித்: மர்மமா? நான் ஊரில் இல்லாத போது ஏதாவது நடந்ததா?
அருள் : இல்லை, ஸ்ரீ. எதுவுமே இல்லை.

Amudha urged that they all go the town’s fair. She told them about different games, magicians and most importantly the ‘Waxworks’, a studio with many wax figures inside. After a lot of pestering, everyone agreed to go. On their way back, they saw Inspector Velayudham on his bike. He was the inspector of the area. “Inspector Velayudham has been very busy these days,” said Amudha. This was happening in their city that they had no clue of.

அமுதா, அனைவரையும் நகர பொருட்காட்சிக்கு அழைத்தாள். அவள் அவர்களிடம் விதவிதமான விளையாட்டுகள், மந்திரவாதிகள், முக்கியமாக மெழுகு வேலைப்பாடுகள், பல மெழுகு சிற்பங்களைக் கொண்ட கலைக்கூடம் ஆகியன பற்றிக் கூறினாள், அதிக வற்புறுத்தலுக்குப் பின் அனைவரும் வர ஒப்புக் கொண்டனர். திரும்பி வரும் வழியில், காவல் ஆய்வாளர் வேலாயுதம் இருசக்கர வண்டியில் வருவதை பார்த்தனர்.

அவர் அப்பகுதியின் காவல் ஆய்வாளர். அந்நாட்களில்காவல் ஆய்வாளர் வேலாயுதம் ஓய்வின்றி மிகவும் பிஸியாக இருப்பதாக அமுதா கூறினாள். இது குழுவினரிடையே தங்கள் நகரத்தில் என்ன நடக்கிறது என அறியும் ஆவலைக் கொடுத்தது. அது குறித்து எந்த துப்பும் அவர்களிடம் இல்லை.

Monday: (திங்கள்)

Jessy overheard her father talking on the phone about a robbery that was expected to take place in the museum.
Jessy rushed to see her friends in the morning and told them what she heard.
Sreejith: Oh, now I know what Inspector Velayudham is up to.
Jessy: Let us solve this case before he does.
Sreejith: I feel we will find more clues if we are near the city area. We will also be able to observe more things. I will disguise myself as that old man we saw on the street.
Everyone agreed to it. Sreejith dressed as the old man. Sreejith sat on the old man’s bench, coughed and sniffed like him. No one could recognise Sreejith. Soon, a man on a cycle came and sat next to the old man. He said, “Where have you been since yesterday? Take this. The man handed over Sreejith a packet of chocolate and went away.

ஜெஸ்ஸிதன் தகப்பனாரின்தொலைப்பேசி உரையாடலை ஒட்டுக் கேட்டு, அருங்காட்சியகத்தில் நடைபெறப்போகும் ஏதோ கொள்ளை செய்தியை பற்றி கேள்விபட்டாள். ஜெஸ்ஸி காலையில் தன் நண்பர்களிடம் விரைந்து சென்று தான் கேட்டதை
கூறினாள்.
ஸ்ரீஜித்: ஓ, இப்பொழுது எனக்கு காவல் ஆய்வாளர் வேலாயுதம் என்ன செய்ய இருக்கிறார் என்று அறிய முடிகிறது.
ஜெஸ்ஸி: அவருக்கு முன்பாக நாம் இந்த வழக்கை தீர்ப்போம்.
ஸ்ரீஜித்: நாம் நகரப் பகுதியின் அருகில் இருந்தால் அதிக தகவல்களை கண்டு பிடிக்கலாம் எனத் தோன்றுகிறது. அதிக காரியங்களைக் கூட நாம் கவனிக்கலாம். நான் தெருவில் கண்ட முதியவரைப் போல் மாறுவேடம் அணிந்து கொள்கிறேன்.
அதற்கு எல்லாரும் ஒப்புக் கொண்டார்கள்.

ஸ்ரீஜித் முதியவர் போல் உடுத்திக் கொண்டான். ஸ்ரீஜித் முதியவரின் இருக்கையில் அமர்ந்து, அவரைப் போல இருமி பெருமூச்சு விட்டான். யாராலும் ஸ்ரீஜித்தை அடையாளம் காண முடியவில்லை. சிறிது நேரத்தில் மிதிவண்டியில் வந்த மனிதன், முதியவரின் அருகில் வந்து அமர்ந்தான். அவன், “நீ நேற்றிலிருந்து எங்கே சென்றாய்? இதை எடுத்துக் கொள்”, என்றான். அந்த மனிதன் ஸ்ரீஜித்திடம் ஒரு பொட்டலம் மிட்டாயைக் கொடுத்துவிட்டு, சென்று விட்டான்.

Sreejith took the chocolate and kept it in his pocket. He saw the real old man coming in his direction from the other side. He also saw Inspector Velayudham rushing out of a shop towards him. Fathima and Jessy were watching all this from afar. They got worried and rushed with Pablo towards the Inspector. Pablo started barking and jumping on the Inspector.

The inspector was annoyed with the dog. Sreejith saw it as a chance to run from there. He hid in a bush nearby. Inspector Velayudham ran towards the old man and caught him. Then, he asked him to give the chocolate to him. The old man was puzzled. Inspector took the old man to the Police station and locked him.

ஸ்ரீஜித் மிட்டாயை வாங்கி தன் பையில் வைத்துக் கொண்டான். உண்மையான முதியவர் தன்னை நோக்கி மறுபுறத்தில் இருந்து வருவதைக் கண்டான். காவல் ஆய்வாளர் வேலாயுதமும் ஒரு கடையில் இருந்து தன்னை நோக்கி விரைவாக வருவதைக் கண்டான். பாத்திமாவும், ஜெஸ்ஸியும் இதை எல்லாம் தூரத்திலிருந்து கவனித்துக் கொண்டிருந்தார்கள். அவர்கள் கவலையடைந்து, பப்லோவுடன் காவல் ஆய்வாளரை நோக்கிவிரைந்தார்கள். பப்லோ, காவல் ஆய்வாளர் மீது தாவி, குரைக்கத் துவங்கியது.

காவல் ஆய்வாளர் நாயின் மீது கோபம் கொண்டார். ஸ்ரீஜித் அங்கிருந்து ஓடிப் போவதற்கு அதை ஒரு தருணமாக கொண்டான். அவன் பக்கத்தில்இருந்த ஒரு புதரில் மறைந்துக் கொண்டான். காவல் ஆய்வாளர் வேலாயுதம் முதியவரை நோக்கி ஓடிச்சென்று அவரை பிடித்தார். பிறகு மிட்டாயை தன்னிடம் தரும்படி கேட்டார். முதியவர் குழப்பம் அடைந்தார். காவல் ஆய்வாளர் அந்த முதியவரை காவல் நிலையத்துக்கு அழைத்துச் சென்று பூட்டி வைத்தார்.

While this was happening, the 5D gathered in Jessy’s garage. They opened the chocolate to find a small chit. They opened it and found a list of grocery items. They were very confused.
Amudha: Sree, is it a code?
Sreejith: Yes, it seems so.
Amudha: I wonder if it is some kind of magic pen like the one you showed us. when we show it under a light, we can see the writing.
Jessy: It could be. I still have his pen with me. I will go and get it at once.
Jessy got the magic pen. They flashed the light on the paper, and some words glowed on it. The message said, “Tell Number 3. Waxworks Tuesday, 9 PM. – Number 5”
Arul: Tomorrow is Tuesday. So the gang is meeting tomorrow.

இது நடந்து கொண்டு இருந்தபோது ஜெஸ்ஸியின் வாகனம் நிறுத்துமிடத்தில் 50 கூடினர். அவர்கள்மிட்டாய் பொட்டலத்தை திறந்தபோது ஒரு துண்டு சீட்டினைக் கண்டனர். அதை திறந்தபோது ஒரு உணவு பொருள் பட்டியலைப் பார்த்து மிகவும் குழம்பினர்.
அமுதா: ஸ்ரீ, அது ஓர் இரகசிய குறியீடா?
ஸ்ரீஜித்: ஆமாம், அப்படித்தான் தோன்றுகிறது. பேனாவினால் எழுதியதுபோல இருக்கிறது. நாம்
அமுதா: அது நீ காண்பித்த ஒரு வித மாயாஜால அதை ஒரு வெளிச்சத்தின் கீழ் வைக்கும் போது, அதன் மீதுள்ள எழுத்துக்களை காணலாம்.
ஜெஸ்ஸி: அப்படியும் இருக்கலாம். இப்பவும் அந்த பேனா என்னிடமுள்ளது. நான் போய் அதை உடனே எடுத்து வருகிறேன். வந்தாள். அவர்கள் அந்த பேப்பரில் வெளிச்சம் அடித்தபோது அதன்மீது இருந்த சில. வார்த்தைகள் மின்னின. “எண் 3-இடம் சொல். மெழுகு வேலைப்பாடு. செவ்வாய்கிழமை. இரவு 9 மணி. – எண் 5” என்று தகவல் சொன்னது.
அருள்: நாளை செவ்வாய் கிழமை எனவே நாளை அந்த கும்பல் சந்திக்கப்போகிறார்கள்.

While they sat in the garden. Inspector Velayudam saw Sreeiith dressed as the old man. He was furious. Then Sreejith had to confess. He handed over the chit to the inspector. The inspector was glad to have found the chit but was furious about their behavior. He warned them to stay away from the case.

Sreejith’s idea was to disguise himself as a wax statue. As it will be the easiest way to get all the information. That evening all of them went to ‘Waxworks. They observed each wax statue and noted down details. While getting out of Waxworks. Sreeiith unlocked one of the windows in the room.

அவர்கள் தோட்டத்தில் அமர்ந்திருந்த பொழுது காவல் ஆய்வாளர் வேலாயுதம், முதியவர்) உடையில் இருந்த ஸ்ரீஜித்தை பார்த்து விட்டார். அவருக்கு மிகவும் கோபம். ஸ்ரீஜித் நடந்ததை அவரிடம் சொல்ல வேண்டியதாயிற்று. அவன் அந்த துண்டு சீட்டை காவல் ஆய்வாளரிடம் ஒப்படைத்தான். காவல் ஆய்வாளர் துண்டுச் கொண்டார்.

அவர்களை இந்த வழக்கில் இருந்து அவர்களுடைய நடத்தை மீது கோபம் விலகியிருக்கும்படி எச்சரித்தார். ஸ்ரீஜித், மெழுகுச்சிலை போல மாறுவேடம் போட திட்டம் தீட்டினான். எல்லா தகவல்களையும்தெரிந்துக் கொள்ள அதுவே சிறந்த வழி. அன்று சாயந்திரம்மெழுகுவேலைமையத்துக்கு எல்லாரும் சென்றனர். எல்லா மெழுகுச்சிலைகளையும் கவனித்து குறிப்பு எடுத்துக் கொண்டார்கள். மெழுகு வேலை மையத்தில் இருந்து வெளியே வரும் போது, ஸ்ரீஜித் அறையில் இருந்த ஒரு ஜன்னலைத் திறந்து வைத்தான்.

Tuesday Night (செவ்வாய் இரவு):

He saw the Inspector inside Waxworks and had no way of getting in without being noticed. He was really sad and went home. In the morning, Sreejith heard the news of Inspector Velayudan arresting the three robbers and also the diamond necklace. Everyone was upset that they didn’t get the chance to solve the mystery. As they sat in Jessy’s living room, they overheard Jessy’s father on the call saying “Where is the real necklace?”

This news alarmed the 5D. Fathima told everyone to rush to the city as some message will be passed regarding
this. Within no time the 5D was in front of the man’s bench Everyone sat at different places to keep an eye on the
man. After an hour, a man came and sat next to the old man. The old man was busy drawing something on the ground with his stick. They noticed that inspector Velayudham was observing at a distance and started following that man. But they waited for the old man to leave and went to see what he had drawn on the ground and it said ‘Waxworks’.

ஸ்ரீஜித், காவல் ஆய்வாளரை மெழுகு வேலை மையத்தில் பார்த்தான். யார் கண்ணிலும் படாமல், அவன் உள்ளே செல்ல ஒரு வழியும் இல்லை. அவன் வருத்தத்துடன் வீடு சென்றான். காலையில் காவல் ஆய்வாளர் வேலாயுதம் மூன்று திருடர்களை கைது செய்து வைர அட்டிகையை கைப்பற்றிய செய்தியை ஸ்ரீஜித் கேட்டறிந்தான். இரகசிய மர்மத்தை கண்டுபிடித்து தீர்க்கும் சந்தர்ப்பம் கிடைக்கவில்லை என அனைவரும் வருந்தினர். அவர்கள் ஜெஸ்ஸியின் வீட்டு க வரவேற்பறையில் அமர்ந்து இருந்தபோது அவள் தகப்பனார் தொலைபேசியில், “உண்மையான அட்டிகை எங்கே?” என்று வினா எழுப்பியதைக் கேட்டனர்.

இந்த செய்தி 5 பிள்ளைகளை உஷார்படுத்தியது. பாத்திமா இதைக் குறித்து எதாவது தகவல் கிடைக்கும் என்பதால் எல்லாரையும் நகரத்திற்கு விரையும்படிக் கூறினாள். சிறிது நேரத்தில், ஐந்து துப்பறிவாளர்களும் முதியவரின் நீண்ட இருக்கைக்கு எதிரில் இருந்தனர். ஒவ்வொருவரும் வெவ்வேறு இடத்தில் அமர்ந்து அந்த மனிதனை நோட்டமிட்டனர். ஒரு மணிநேரம் சென்றபின், ஒரு மனிதன் வந்து முதியவரின் பக்கத்தில் அமர்ந்தான். முதியவர் தரையில் குச்சியினால் ஏதோ மும்முரமாக வரைந்துக் கொண்டு இருந்தார்.

காவல் ஆய்வாளர் வேலாயுதம் அந்த மனிதனை தூரத்திலிருந்து கவனித்துக் கொண்டிருந்ததை பார்த்தனர். முதியவர் அந்த இடத்தை விட்டுச் சென்றவுடன், அவர் தரையில் என்ன வரைந்து இருக்கிறார் என காணச் சென்றனர். அங்கு “மெழுகு வேலை மையம்”, என்று எழுதப்பட்டிருந்தது.

At Waxworks (மெழுகு வேலை மையத்தில):

Sreejith: Amudha, if you were to place the diamond necklace in this place where would you place it?
Amudha thought for a second and said, “On the princess statue. She already wears so many jewels that this will go unnoticed.”

ஸ்ரீஜித்: அமுதா, இந்த இடத்தில் உன்னை வைர அட்டிகையை வைக்கச் சொன்னால், நீ எங்கே வைப்பாய்? அமுதா ஒரு நொடி யோசித்துப் பார்த்து, பின்னர், “இளவரசியின் சிலையின் மீது”, என்றாள். “இளவரசி மீது அதிக நகை இருந்ததால், வைர அட்டிகை கவனிக்கப்படமாட்டாது”, என்றாள். அனைவரது கண்க ளும் பிரகாசித்தன. அவர்கள் இளவரசியின் சிலைக்கு நேராக நடந்து சென்றார்கள். வைர அட்டிகையைப் பார்த்தார்கள்.

Everyone’s eyes lit up. They walked straight to the princess statue. They saw the diamond necklace. Sreejith carefully removed it and kept it in his pocket. As soon as they came out, there was a senior policeman standing.
The children went straight to him and handed over the diamond necklace. They told him the whole story. They
were appreciated for their courage and dedication towards their city.

ஸ்ரீஜித் அதை கவனமாக கழற்றி தன் சட்டைப் பையில் வைத்துக் கொண்டான். அவர்கள் வெளியே வந்தவுடன், அங்கு ஒரு
மூத்த காவல் அதிகாரி இருந்தார். பிள்ளைகள் நேராக அவரிடம் சென்று வைர அட்டிகையை ஒப்படைத்தனர். நடந்ததை முழுவதும் அவரிடம் விவரித்துக் கூறினர். நகரத்தின் மீது அவர்கள் கொண்டிருந்த அக்கறைக்காகவும், அவர்களின்
தைரியத்திற்காகவும், அவர்கள் மிகவும் பாராட்டப்பட்டார்கள்.

Tamilnadu Samacheer Kalvi 11th Maths Solutions Chapter 1 Sets, Relations and Functions Ex 1.2

Question 1.
Discuss the following relations for reflexivity, symmetricity and transitivity:
(i) The relation R defined on the set of all positive integers by “m R n if m divides n”.
(ii) Let P denote the set of all straight lines in a plane. The relation R defined by “ l R m if l is perpendicular to m”.
(iii) Let A be the set consisting of all the members of a family. The relation R defined by “a R b if a is not a sister of b”.
(iv) Let A be the set consisting of all the female members of a family. The relation R defined by “a R b if a is not a sister of b”.
(v) On the set of natural numbers the relation R defined by “x R y if x + 2y = 1”

(i) The relation R defined on the set of all positive integers by “m R n if m divides n”.
Answer:
S = {set of all positive integers}

(a) mRm ⇒ ‘m’ divides’m’ ⇒ reflexive

(b) mRn ⇒ m divides n but
nRm ⇒ n does not divide m
(i.e.,) mRn ≠ nRm
It is not symmetric

(c) mRn ⇒ nRr as n divides r
It is transitive

(ii) Let P denote the set of all straight lines in a plane. The relation R defined by“ l R m if l is perpendicular to m”.
Answer:
Let P denote the set of all straight lines in a plane. The relation R is defined by l R m if l is perpendicular to m.
R = {(l, m): l is perpendicular to m}

(a) Reflexive:
Let l be any line in the plane P. Then line l is not perpendicular to itself.
{1, 1) ∉ R
∴ R is not reflexive.

(b) Symmetric:
Let (1, m) ∉ R ⇒ l is perpendicular to m
∴ m is perpendicular to l.
Hence (m, l) ∈ R
∴ R is symmetric.

(c) Transitive;
Let (l, m), (m, n) ∈ R
⇒ l is perpendicular to m.
∴ l is parallel to n. (l , n) ∉ R
Hence R is not transitive.

(iii) Let A be the set consisting of all the members of a family. The relation R defined by “a R b if a is not a sister of b”.
Answer:
A = {set of all members of the family}
aRb is a is not a sister of b

(a) aRa ⇒ a is not a sister of a It is reflexive

(b) aRb ⇒ a is not a sister of b.
bRa ⇒ b is not a sister of a.
It is symmetric

(c) aRb ⇒ a is not a sister of b.
bRc ⇒ b is not a sister of c.
⇒ aRc ⇒ a can be a sister of c
It is not transitive.

(iv) Let A be the set consisting of all the female members of a family. The relation R defined by “a R b if a is not a sister of b”.
Answer:
Given A is the set containing female members of the family.
Let M = Mother
H = Female child
A = { M, H }
The relation R on A is defined by aRb if a is not a sister of b.
R = {(M, M), (M, H), (H, H), (H, M)}

(a) Reflexive:
Clearly (M, M) and (H, H) ∈ R.
∴ R is reflexive.

(b) Symmetric:
For (M, H) ∈ R, we have (H, M ) ∈ R
∴ R is symmetric.

(c) Transitive:
For (M,M),(M,H) ∈ R ⇒ (M, H) ∈ R
(M,H),(H,H) ∈ R ⇒ (M, H) ∈ R
(H,H),(H,M) ∈ R ⇒ (H, M) ∈ R
(H,M),(M,M) ∈ R ⇒ (H, M) ∈ R
(H,M),(M,H) ∈ R (H, H) ∈ R
∴ R is transitive.

(v) On the set of natural numbers the relation R defined by “x R y if x + 2y = 1”
Answer:
N= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5,….}
xRy if x + 2y = 1 R is an empty set

(a) xRx ⇒ x + 2x = 1 ⇒ x = \(\frac{1}{3}\) ∉ N. It is not reflexive
xRy = yRx ⇒ x + 2y = 1 It does not imply that y + 2x = 1 as y = \(\frac{1-x}{2}\) It is not symmetric.

(b) -x = y ⇒ (-1, 1) ∉ N
It is not transitive.

Question 2.
Let X = { a , b , c , d } and R = { (a, a ) , (b, b ), (a, c)}. Write down the minimum number of ordered pairs to be included to R to make it
(i) reflexive
(ii) symmetric
(iii) transitive
(iv) equivalence
Answer:
Given X = { a, b, c, d }
R = { (a, a), (b, b), (a, c) }
(i) The minimum ordered pairs to be included to R in order to make R to be reflexive is (c, c) and (d, d)
(ii) The minimum ordered pairs to be included to R in order to make R to be symmetric is (c, a).
(iii) R is transitive. We need not add any pair.
(iv) After adding the ordered pairs (c, c),(d, d), (c, a) the new relation becomes
R, = {(a, a), (b, b), (c, c), (d, d), (a, c), (c, a)}
The new relation satisfies, reflexive, symmetric and transitive property.
∴ R₁ is an equivalence relation.

Question 3.
Let A = { a, b , c } and R = { (a, a ) , (b, b ), (a, c ) }. Write down the minimum number of ordered pairs to be included to R to make it
(i) reflexive
(ii) symmetric
(iii) transitive
(iv) equivalence
Answer:
Given A = {a, b, c }
R = { (a, a), (b, b),(a, c) }
(i) The minimum ordered pair to be included to R in order to make it reflexive is (c, c).
(ii) The minimum ordered pair to be included to R in order to make it symmetrical is (c, a).
(iii) R is transitive. We need not add any pair.
(iv) After including the ordered pairs (c, c),(c, a) to R the new relation becomes
R₁ = { (a, a), (b, b), (c, c) , (a, c) , (c, a) }
R₁ is reflexive symmetric and transitive.
∴ R₁ is an equivalence relation.

Question 4.
Let P be the set of all triangles in a plane and R be the relation defined on P as a R b if a is similar to b. Prove that R is an equivalence relation.
Answer:
Given P = the set of all triangles in a plane.
R is the relation defined by a R b if a is similar to b.
R = {(a, b) : a is similar to b for a, b ∈ p }

(a) Reflexive:
(a, a) ⇒ a is similar to a for all a ∈ P
∴ R is reflexive.

(b) Symmetric: .
Let (a,b) ∈ R ⇒ a is similar to b
⇒ b is similar to a
∴ (b, a) ∈ R
Hence R is symmetric.

c) Transitive:
Let (a, b) and ( b, c) ∈ R
(a, b) ∈ R ⇒ a is similar to b
(b, c) ∈ R ⇒ b is similar to c
∴ a is similar to c.
Hence R is transitive.
∴ R is an equivalence relation on P.

Question 5.
On the set of natural numbers let R be the relation defined by a R b if 2a + 3b = 30. Write down the relation by listing all the pairs. Cheek whether it is
(i) reflexive
(ii) symmetric
(iii) transitive
(iv) equivalence
Answer:
Given N = set of natural numbers
R is the relation defined by a R b if 2a + 3b = 30


When a > 15, b negative and does not belong to N.
∴ R = { (3,8),(6,6), (9,4), (12,2)}.
(i) R is not reflexive since (a, a) ∉ R for all a ∈ N.
(ii) R is not symmetric since for (3, 8) ∈ R, (8, 3) ∉ R
(iii) Clearly R is transitive since we cannot find elements (a, b), (b, c) in R such that (a, c) ∉ R
∴ R is not an equivalence relation.

Question 6.
Prove that the relation ‘friendship’ is not an equivalence relation on the set of all people in Chennai.
Answer:
(a) S = aRa (i.e. ) a person can be a friend to himself or herself.
So it is reflective.

(b) aRb ⇒ bRa so it is symmetric

(c) aRb, bRc does not ⇒ aRc so it is not transitive
⇒ It is not an equivalence relation

Question 7.
On the set of natural numbers let R be the relation defined by a R b if a + b < 6. Write down the relation by listing all the pairs. Check whether it is
(i) reflexive
(ii) symmetric
(iii) transitive
(iv) equivalence.
Answer:
N = the set of natural numbers.
R is the relation defined on N by
a R b if a + b ≤ 6
R = { (a, b), a, b ∈ N / a + b ≤ 6}
a + b ≤ 6 ⇒ b ≤ 6 – a

a = 1,
b ≤ 6 – 1 = 5
b is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
∴ (1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 4), (1, 5) ∈ R

a = 2,
b ≤ 6 – 2 = 4
b is 1, 2, 3, 4
∴ (2, 1), (2, 2),(2, 3), (2, 4) ∈ R

a = 3,
b < 6 – 3 = 3
b is 1, 2, 3
∴ (3, 1), (3, 2), (3, 3) ∈ R

a = 4 ,
b < 6 – 4 = 2
b is 1, 2
∴ (4, 1), (4, 2) ∈ R

a = 5,
b < 6 – 5 = 1
b is 1
∴ (5, 1) ∈ R
∴ R = {(1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 4), (1, 5), (2, 1), (2, 2), (2, 3), (2, 4), (3, 1), (3, 2), (3, 3), (4, 1), (4, 2), (5, 1)}

(i) Reflexive:
R is not reflexive since (4, 4), (5, 5) ∈ R

(ii) Symmetric:
Cleary R is symmetric forever (x, y) ∈ R, we have (y, x) ∈ R.

(iii) Transitive:
(3, 1), (1, 5) ∈ R ⇒ (3,5) ∉ R
∴ R is not transitive.

(iv) R is not an equivalence relation.

Question 8.
Let A = { a, b, c }. What is the equivalence relation of smallest cardinality on A? What is the equivalence relation of largest cardinality on A?
Answer:
R = {{a, a), (b, b), (c, c)} is this smallest cardinality of A to make it equivalence relation n(R) = 3

(i) R = {(a, a), {a, b), (a, c), (b, c), (b, b), {b, c), (c, a), (c, b), (c, c)}
n(R) = 9 is the largest cardinality of R to make it equivalence.

Question 9.
In the set Z of integers, define m Rn if m – n is divisible by 7. Prove that R is an equivalence relation.
Answer:
Z = set of all integers
Relation R is defined on Z by m R n if m – n is divisible by 7.
R = {(m, n), m, n ∈ Z/m – n divisible by 7}
m – n divisible by 7
∴ m – n = 7k where k is an integer.

a) Reflexive:
m – m = 0 = 0 × 7
m – m is divisible by 7
∴ (m, m ) ∈ R for all m ∈ Z
Hence R is reflexive.

b) Symmetric:
Let (m, n ) ∈ R ⇒ m – n is divisible by 7
m – n = 7k
n – m = – 7k
n – m = (-k)7
∴ n – m is divisible by 7
∴ (n, m) ∈ R.

c) Transitive:
Let (m, n) and (n , r) ∈ R
m – n is divisible by 7
m – n = 7k ——— (1)
n – r is divisible by 7
n – r = 7k₁ ——— (2)
(m – n) + (n – r) = 7k + 7k₁
m – r = ( k + k₁) 7
m – r is divisible by 7.
∴ (m, r) ∈ R
Hence R is transitive.
R is an equivalence relation.
