What is the value of i² where i is the imaginary unit?

  • A 1
  • B -1
  • C i
  • D -i
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option B — -1
Explanation: The imaginary unit i is defined as √(-1) so i² = -1. Powers of i cycle every four: i¹=i i²=-1 i³=-i i⁴=1. Complex numbers extend the real number system to solve equations like x²+1=0. They appear in higher mathematics physics and engineering topics tested in advanced competitive exams.

What is the derivative of x³ with respect to x?

  • A
  • B 3x
  • C 3x²
  • D 2x³
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option C — 3x²
Explanation: Derivative of xⁿ = nxⁿ⁻¹ (power rule). For x³: derivative = 3x². Differentiation measures the instantaneous rate of change of a function. The power rule is the most fundamental differentiation rule forming the starting point for all calculus problems in CSS PMS and higher competitive examinations.

Evaluate the integral of x dx from 0 to 4

  • A 8
  • B 10
  • C 12
  • D 16
Permalink
Correct Answer: Option A — 8
Explanation: ∫x dx = x²/2. Evaluated from 0 to 4: (4²/2) - (0²/2) = 8 - 0 = 8. Definite integration computes the area under a curve between two limits. The power rule for integration states ∫xⁿdx = xⁿ⁺¹/(n+1). Basic integration is tested in CSS PMS and higher-level competitive exams.
