Answer the following as true or false.
\begin{align}(i) \overrightarrow{a}\; and\; \overrightarrow{-a}\; are\; collinear.\end{align}
(ii) Two collinear vectors are always equal in magnitude.
(iii) Two vectors having same magnitude are collinear.
(iv) Two collinear vectors having the same magnitude are equal.
(i) True.
\begin{align}(i) \overrightarrow{a}\; and\; \overrightarrow{-a}\; are\; collinear.\end{align}
(ii) False.
Collinear vectors are those vectors that are parallel to the same line.
(iii) False.
It is not necessary for two vectors having the same magnitude to be parallel to the same line.
(iv) False.
Two vectors are said to be equal if they have the same magnitude and direction, regardless of the positions of their initial points.
In each of the following cases, state whether the function is one-one, onto or bijective. Justify your answer.
(i) f : R → R defined by f(x) = 3 – 4x
(ii) f : R → R defined by f(x) = 1 + x2
Show that the Modulus Function f : R → R, given by f(x) = |x|, is neither oneone nor onto, where | x | is x, if x is positive or 0 and |x| is – x, if x is negative.
Prove that the Greatest Integer Function f : R → R, given by f(x) = [x], is neither one-one nor onto, where [x] denotes the greatest integer less than or equal to x.
In Figure, identify the following vectors.
(i) Coinitial (ii) Equal (iii) Collinear but not equal
A balloon, which always remains spherical has a variable radius. Find the rate at which its volume is increasing with the radius when the later is 10 cm.
Let f : R → R be defined as f(x) = x4. Choose the correct answer.
(A) f is one-one onto
(B) f is many-one onto
(C) f is one-one but not onto
(D) f is neither one-one nor onto.
Check the injectivity and surjectivity of the following functions:

(ii) f : Z → Z given by f(x) = x2
(iii) f : R → R given by f(x) = x2
(iv) f : N → N given by f(x) = x3
(v) f : Z → Z given by f(x) = x3
Find the direction cosines of a line which makes equal angles with the coordinate axes.
Let f: X → Y be an invertible function. Show that the inverse of f –1 is f, i.e., (f–1)–1 = f.
If a line has the direction ratios −18, 12, −4, then what are its direction cosines?
