Let $C$ be the circle $x^2 + (y - 1)^2 = 2$, $E_1$ and $E_2$ be two ellipses whose centres lie at the origin and major axes lie on the $x$-axis and $y$-axis respectively. Let the straight line $x + y = 3$ touch the curves $C$, $E_1$, and $E_2$ at $P(x_1, y_1)$, $Q(x_2, y_2)$, and $R(x_3, y_3)$ respectively. Given that $P$ is the mid-point of the line segment $QR$ and $PQ = \frac{2\sqrt{2}}{3}$, the value of $9(x_1 y_1 + x_2 y_2 + x_3 y_3)$ is equal to
The length of the latus-rectum of the ellipse, whose foci are $(2, 5)$ and $(2, -3)$ and eccentricity is $\frac{4}{5}$, is
In a two-dimensional coordinate system, it is proposed to determine the size and shape of a triangle ABC in addition to its location and orientation. For this, all the internal angles and sides of the triangle were observed. Further, the planar coordinates of point A and bearing/azimuth of line AB were known. The redundancy (\( r \)) for the above system will be equal to _________ (Answer in integer).
Let $ [.] $ denote the greatest integer function. If $$ \int_1^e \frac{1}{x e^x} dx = \alpha - \log 2, \quad \text{then} \quad \alpha^2 \text{ is equal to:} $$
If the area of the region $$ \{(x, y): |4 - x^2| \leq y \leq x^2, y \geq 0\} $$ is $ \frac{80\sqrt{2}}{\alpha - \beta} $, $ \alpha, \beta \in \mathbb{N} $, then $ \alpha + \beta $ is equal to:
Three distinct numbers are selected randomly from the set $ \{1, 2, 3, ..., 40\} $. If the probability that the selected numbers are in an increasing G.P. is $ \frac{m}{n} $, where $ \gcd(m, n) = 1 $, then $ m + n $ is equal to:
