Given f  1  = 0 ∀ n ≥ 1 and n ∈ I.
n
This indicates that f(x) has a wavey behaviour.
Amplitude of the wave either (a) is constant (b) increases or (c) decreases.
In case of (a) and (b), function will not be differentiable at 0.
⇒ Amplitude has to decrease such that f ′(0) = 0 .

P(0) = 0 ⇒ c = 0 and P(1) = 1 ⇒ a + b = 1 so that P ′( x ) = 2(1 − b ) x + b > 0 ∀ x

Let the circle touching the x-axis be x2 + y2 - 2ax - 2by + a2 = 0 with centre at (a, b) and radius b.

Since it touches the circle x2 + (y - 1)2 = 1, |b + 1| = a 2 + (b − 1) 2 .

⇒ b 2 + 2b + 1 = a 2 + b 2 − 2b + 1

⇒ 4b − a 2 so that locus of (a, b) is x2 = 4y. If the centre of the circle lies on the y-axis, then y < 0.

There are 2m vertical (numbered 1, 2, ......., 2m) and 2n horizontal lines (numbered 1, 2, ....., 2n). To form the
required rectangle we must select two horizontal lines, one even numbered and one odd numbered and similarly
two vertical lines. The number of rectangles is then mC1 . mC1 . nC1 . nC1 = m2n2.
Alternate solution:
Number of rectangles possible is (1 + 3 + 5 + ...... + (2m - 1)) (1 + 3 + 5 + ...... + (2n - 1)) = m2n2.

Let g(x) = f(x) - x2.
We have g(1) = 0, g(2) = 0, g(3) = 0.
Hence by Rolle’s theorem g′( x ) = 0 for some c ∈(1, 2) and g′( x ) = 0 for some d ∈(2, 3)

Again, by Rolle’s theorem g ′′( x ) = 0 at some x ∈(c, d ) ⇒ f ′′( x ) = 2 for some values x ∈(1, 3) .
