Given that,\(y=(\cos x)^{(\cos x)^{(\cos x)} \cdots^{\infty}}\)
\(\Rightarrow \quad y=(\cos x)^{y}\)
Taking log on both sides, we get
log y = y log(cos x)
Now, differentiating w.r.t. x, we get
\(\frac{1}{y} \cdot \frac{d y}{d x}=y \cdot \frac{1}{\cos x}(-\sin x)+\log (\cos x) \cdot \frac{d y}{d x}\)
\(\Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}=y\left\{-y \tan x+\log \cos x \cdot \frac{d y}{d x}\right\} \)
\(\Rightarrow(1-y \log \cos x) \frac{d y}{d x}=-y^{2} \tan x \)
\(\Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{y^{2} \tan x}{(y \log \cos x-1)} \)
10.
Since \(x^{y}=y^{x} \Rightarrow y \log x=x \log y\)
On differentiating w.r.t. x, we get
\( \Rightarrow y \cdot \frac{1}{x}+\log x \frac{d y}{d x}=\frac{x}{y} \frac{d y}{d x}+\log y \)
\(\Rightarrow \frac{d y}{d x}\left(\frac{x}{y}-\log x\right)=\frac{y}{x}-\log y \)
\(\Rightarrow x(x-y \log x) \frac{d y}{d x}=y(-x \log y+y) \)

As y = sin-1 \(y={ sin }^{ 2 }\left\{ 3.\frac { x }{ 2 } -4.{ \left( \frac { x }{ 2 } \right) }^{ 3 } \right\} \)
= 3 sin-1 \(\frac { x }{ 2 } \)
\(\therefore \ \frac { dy }{ dx } =3.\frac { 1 }{ \sqrt { 1-\frac { { x }^{ 2 } }{ 4 } } } .\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \)

(ii) (a): Required probability = \(\frac{{ }^{13} C_{2}}{{ }^{51} C_{2}}=\frac{13 \times 12}{51 \times 50}=\frac{26}{425}\)
(iii) (b): Clearly, P(A l E1) = \(\frac{{ }^{12} C_{2}}{{ }^{51} C_{2}}=\frac{22}{425}\)
\(P\left(A \mid E_{2}\right)=\frac{{ }^{13} C_{2}}{{ }^{51} C_{2}}=\frac{26}{425} \)
\(P\left(A \mid E_{3}\right)=P\left(A \mid E_{4}\right)=\frac{26}{425}\)
\(\therefore \sum_{i=1}^{4} P\left(A \mid E_{i}\right)=\frac{22}{425}+\frac{26}{425}+\frac{26}{425}+\frac{26}{425}=\frac{100}{425}=0.24\)
(iv) (b): P(getting both king) = \(\frac{{ }^{4} C_{2}}{{ }^{52} C_{2}}=\frac{4 \times 3}{52 \times 51}=\frac{1}{221}\)
(v) (a): P(drawing a king) = \(\frac{4}{52}=\frac{1}{13}\)
\(
\therefore \quad P(\text { not drawing a king })=1-\frac{1}{13}=\frac{12}{13} \)

\((ii) \ (\mathbf{b}): P(R \cap Y)=P(Y) \cdot P(R \mid Y)=\frac{10}{35} \cdot \frac{8}{34}=\frac{8}{119}\)
(iii) (a): Let E = event of drawing a first red ball and
F = event of drawing a second red ball
Here, \(P(E)=\frac{8}{35} \text { and } P(E)=\frac{7}{34}\)
\(\therefore \P(F \cap E)=P(E) \cdot P(F \mid E)=\frac{8}{35} \cdot \frac{7}{34}=\frac{4}{85}\)
\(\text {(iv) }(c): P\left(Y^{\prime} \cap G\right)=P(G) \cdot\left(Y^{\prime} \mid G\right)=\frac{5}{35} \cdot \frac{24}{34}=\frac{12}{119}\)

ஃ The point of intersection \(B(x, y)=\left(\frac{50}{3}, \frac{40}{3}\right)\)
(ii) (d): The corner points of the feasible region shown in the given graph are

Using L' Hospital rule, we get
L.H.L.(at x = 0)
\(\begin{equation} =\lim _{x \rightarrow 0}(a+1) \cos (a+1) x+\cos x=a+2 \end{equation}\)

\(\begin{equation} =\lim _{x \rightarrow 0} \frac{1}{\sqrt{1+b x}+1}=\frac{1}{2} \end{equation}\)
Since,f(x) is continuous at x = 0.
\(\therefore\) From (i) and (ii), we get
\(\begin{equation} a+2=c=\frac{1}{2} \Rightarrow a=-\frac{3}{2}, c=\frac{1}{2} \end{equation}\)
Also, value of b does not affect the continuity of f(x), so b can be any real number.
