Given in the table below are the most repeated questions in CBSE 12th Board Maths Exams over the past years. Students must practice these questions to excel in the CBSE Class 12 Maths Exam 2025:

1. Relations and Functions

Q1. If R = {(a, a3): a is a prime number less than 5} be a relation. Find the range of R . 

Q2. If f: {1,3, 4} → {1, 2, 5} and g: {1,2, 5} → {1, 3} given by f = {(1,2), (3, 5), (4,1)} and g = {(1,3), (2, 3), (5,1)}. Write down gof.

Q3. Let R is the equivalence relation in the set A = {0,1, 2, 3, 4, 5} given by R = {(a, b) : 2 divides (a – b)}. Write the equivalence class [0].

Q4. If R = {(x, y): x + 2y = 8} is a relation on N, then write the range of R.

Q5. If A = {1, 2, 3}, S = {4, 5,6, 7} and f = {(1, 4), (2, 5), (3, 6)} is a function from A to B. State whether f is one-one or not.

Q6. If f : R → R is defined by f{x) = 3x + 2, then define f[f(x)].

Q7. Write fog, if f: R → R and g:R → R are given by f(x) = |x| and g(x) = |5x – 2|.

Q8. Write fog, if f: R → R and g:R → R are given by f(x) = 8x3 and g(x) = xy3.

Q9. State the reason for the relation R in the set {1, 2, 3} given by R = {(1, 2), (2,1)} not to be transitive.

6. Application of Derivatives

Q1. The total cost C(x) associated with the production of x units of an item is given by C(x) = 0.005x3 – 0.02x2 + 30x + 5000. Find the marginal cost when 3 units are produced, where by marginal cost we mean the instantaneous rate of change of total cost at any level of output.

Q2. Show that the function f(x) = x3 – 3x2 + 6x – 100 is increasing on R.

Q3. Show that the function f(x) = 4x3 – 18x2 + 27x – 7 is always increasing on R. 

Q4. The volume of a cube is increasing at the rate of 8 cm3/s. How fast is the surface area increasing when the length of its edge is 12 cm?

Q5. The length x of a rectangle is decreasing at the rate of 5 cm/min and the width y is increasing at the rate of 4 cm/min. When x = 8 cm and y = 6 cm, find the rate of change of

(i) the perimeter.
