Conic sections have applications in various fields. When an object is thrown in space,
then the path traced by the object is (called a projectile) a PARABOLA. Another example
can be a parabolic reflectors which are used in Cars, Automobiles ,Solar cookers,
Telescopes and Cables shape like Parabolic arcs used in suspension bridge. The Planets in
a solar system moves in an ELLIPTICAl path with the Sun at one of the foci, also Artificial
satellites are made to move in an ELLIPTICAL path around Earth. HYPERBOLA have their
applications in the field of Ballistics, the shape of EIFFEL Tower is also Hyperbolic .

37. The importance of games and sports in a student’s life is to a great extent. It has proved to
be very therapeutic in nature. Sports in a student’s life helps in improving and building
skills, and also aid in other concepts such as dispute management and sport-based
interaction. Sports and games not only improve physical and mental health they also
inculcate discipline in students. They learn to work in teams and their self-confidence
gets a boost.

A Physical Education teacher conducted a survey of 500 students to study about

their interest in various sports and games. It was found that 285 are interested in
playing football, 195 are interested in playing basket ball, 115 are interested in playing
hockey. 45 are interested in playing football and hockey, 70 are interested in playing
football and basket ball and 50 are interested in playing hockey and basket ball. 50
students are not interested any of these three games.
i.How many students are interested in at least one of the three games?
(1 mark)
ii. How many are interested in all three games? (1 mark)
iii. How many are interested exactly in one game? (2 marks)

38. The number lock has three/four wheels each labeled with 10 digits 0 to 9.The lock can be
opened with the digits are set in a particular specific order. In mathematics, a
permutation of a set is an arrangement of its members into a sequence or linear order, or
if the set is already ordered, a rearrangement of its elements. The word "Permutation"
also refers to the act or process of changing the linear order of an ordered set.
Now answer the questions given below

(i) A number lock in a suitcase has three wheels each labeled with ten digits 0 to 9
and the number lock is a three digit even number, then find the number of all possible
attempts if repetition of numbers is not allowed.
(2 marks)
(ii) Find the number of unsuccessful attempts if repetition of digits is allowed.
