If f: R → R be given by f(x) | Class 12 Mathematics Chapter Relations and Functions, Relations and Functions NCERT Solutions

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.

Show that the Signum Function f : R → R, given by

is neither one-one nor onto.

The rate of change of the area of a circle with respect to its radius r at r = 6 cm is

(A) 10π (B) 12π (C) 8π (D) 11π

 Let A and B be sets. Show that f : A × B → B × A such that f(a, b) = (b, a) is bijective function.

 Let f : X → Y be an invertible function. Show that f has unique inverse.

(Hint: suppose g1 and g2 are two inverses of f. Then for all y ∈ Y, fog1(y) = 1Y(y) = fog2(y). Use one-one ness of f). 

Let f, g and h be functions from R to R. Show that

(f + g)oh = foh + goh

(f . g)oh = (foh) . (goh) 

State with reason whether following functions have inverse

(i) f : {1, 2, 3, 4} → {10} with

f  = {(1, 10), (2, 10), (3, 10), (4, 10)}

(ii) g : {5, 6, 7, 8} → {1, 2, 3, 4} with

g = {(5, 4), (6, 3), (7, 4), (8, 2)}

(iii) h : {2, 3, 4, 5} → {7, 9, 11, 13} with

h = {(2, 7), (3, 9), (4, 11), (5, 13)}

 Let A = {1, 2, 3}, B = {4, 5, 6, 7} and let f = {(1, 4), (2, 5), (3, 6)} be a function from A to B. Show that f is one-one.
