If the lines $x + 2ay + a = 0, x + 3by + b = 0$ and $x + 4cy + c = 0$ are concurrent, then $a, b$ and $c$ are in :-
The determinant $\left| {\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}a&b&{a - b}\\b&c&{b - c}\\2&1&0\end{array}\,} \right|$ is equal to zero if $a,b,c$ are in
Let $a_1,a_2,a_3,....,a_{10}$ be in $G.P.$ with $a_i > 0$ for $i = 1, 2,....,10$ and $S$ be the set of pairs $(r,k), r, k \in N$ (the set of natural numbers) for which
$\left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}

Then the number of elements in $S$, is
If ${A_i} = \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{{a^i}}&{{b^i}}\\{{b^i}}&{{a^i}}\end{array}} \right]$and if $|a|\, < 1,\,|b|\, < 1$, then $\sum\limits_{i = 1}^\infty {\det ({A_i})} $is equal to
Let the area of the triangle with vertices $A (1, \alpha)$, $B (\alpha, 0)$ and $C (0, \alpha)$ be $4\, sq.$ units. If the point $(\alpha,-\alpha),(-\alpha, \alpha)$ and $\left(\alpha^{2}, \beta\right)$ are collinear, then $\beta$ is equal to
