Let $f(x) = \max(\sin x, \cos x)$ and $g(x) = \min(\cos x, \sin x)$. Define $h(y) = f(x)y^2 + ay + g(x)$. If the equation $h(y) = 0$ has real roots for all $x \in R$,find the complete set of values of $a$.

Let $f(x) = \frac{2^{x+2} + 16}{2^{2x+1} + 2^{x+4} + 32}$. Then the value of $8 \left( f \left( \frac{1}{15} \right) + f \left( \frac{2}{15} \right) + \dots + f \left( \frac{59}{15} \right) \right)$ is equal to

The set of all $a \in R$ for which the equation $x|x-1|+|x+2|+a=0$ has exactly one real root is:

Let $f(x) = a^x$ $(a > 0)$ be written as $f(x) = f_1(x) + f_2(x)$,where $f_1(x)$ is an even function and $f_2(x)$ is an odd function. Then $f_1(x + y) + f_1(x - y)$ equals

Let $f(x) = Ax^3 - Bx - \tan x \cdot \text{sgn}(x)$ be an even function $\forall x \in R - \left\{ (2n + 1)\frac{\pi}{2}, n \in I \right\}$,where $A = \sin^2 \alpha - \sin \alpha + \frac{1}{4}$ and $B = \tan^2 \alpha + \frac{2}{\sqrt{3}} \tan \alpha + \frac{1}{3}$. Then the number of values of $\alpha$ in $\left[ -\frac{3\pi}{2}, 2\pi \right]$ is (where $\text{sgn}(x)$ denotes the signum function of $x$).

If $R \subset A \times B$ and $S \subset B \times C$,then the relation $(SoR)^{-1} = $
