1.REAL NUMBERS

Rational numbers:-

• The numbers which are written in the form of , where p, q are integers and q≠ 0 are called as rational numbers. Rational numbers are denoted by Q.

ex:-  3/2, 3/5, 2, 1 and so on

• Natural numbers, Whole numbers, and Integers are rational numbers.

• The rational numbers do not have a unique representation.

  Representation of rational number:

      Represent   

To find a rational number between given numbers:

 Mean method:- A rational number between two numbers a and b is

  Ex:- insert two rational number between 1 and 2

To find a rational number in a single step:-

 Ex:- insert two rational number between 1 and 2

 To find two rational numbers, we 1 and 2 as rational numbers with same denominator 3     (∵ 1 + 2 = 3)

 

The decimal form of rational numbers:

• Note:-Every rational number can be expressed as a terminating decimal or non-terminating repeating decimal.
• Converting decimal form into a fraction:

1. Terminating decimals:-  (i) 1.2 = 12/10 = 6/5

                  (ii) 1.35 =135/100 = 135/100 = 27/20

2. Non-Terminating repeating decimals:-

Irrational numbers:

• The numbers which are not written in the form of , where p, q are integers and q ≠ 0 are called rational numbers. Rational numbers are denoted by Q^I or S.

• Every irrational number can be expressed as a non-terminating decimal or non-repeating decimal.

Ex:-

   Calculation of square roots:

• There is a reference of irrationals in the calculation of square roots in Sulba Sutra.
• Procedure to find   value:

Representing irrational numbers on a number line:

          Ex:- Locate    on a number line

• At ‘O’ draw a unit square OABC on a number line with each side 1 unit in length.

• By Pythagoras theorem                          OB² = OA² + AB²

=  1² + 1²

OB² = 2

OB =

• Using a compass with centre O and radius OB, draw an arc on the right side to O intersecting the number line at the point
• The location of   is now at k.

• Note:-  If a and b are two positive rational numbers such that ab is not a perfect square, then  is an irrational number lies between a and b.   

Real numbers

• The collection of all rational and irrational numbers is called real numbers.
• Real numbers cover all the points on the number line.
• Every real number is represented by a unique point on the number line.
• Ex:-   are some examples of real numbers.

Representing real numbers on the number line through successive magnifications:-

locating 2. 775 on a number line

Operation on real numbers

• The sum, difference, product and quotient of irrational numbers need not be an irrational number.
• Irrational numbers are not closed under addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
• For any two real numbers a and b

Rationalizing the denominator:

• Rationalizing factor(R.F):-If the product of two irrational numbers is rational, then each of the two is the rationalizing factor to others.

• The rationalizing factor of a given irrational number is not unique. It is convenient to use the simplest of all R.F.s of given irrational number.
• Note:-

2. POLYNOMIALS AND FACTORIZATION

Polynomial: An algebraic expression in which the variables involved have only whole number powers is called a polynomial.

Ex: x² , x³ + 1, x² + xy + y²  and so on.

Polynomials in one variable: The polynomials which are in the form of (a constant) × (some power of variable) are called polynomials in one variable.

    Ex: 2x, 4x, 3x² + 1 and so on.

Degree of the polynomial: The degree of a term is the sum of the exponent of its variable factors. The degree of the polynomial is the highest power of its variable term.

Ex:  degree of 3x² + 2x³ + 1 is 3

        degree of 5x²y³ + 2xy + 3x³ is 5   

a polynomial in one variable x of degree n is a_nxⁿ + a_n-1x^n-1 + …+a₁x + a₀. Where a₀, a₁…a_n are constants and a_n ≠ 0.

Types of polynomials:

1. According to no. of terms: –

No. of non-zero terms	Name of the polynomial	Examples	Terms
1	Monomial	3x	3x
2	Binomial	-2 x + 7	-2x, 7
3	Trinomial	5x2 + 4x + 2	5x2, 4x, 2
More than 3	Multinomial	6x3 – 5x2 + 7x – 3	6x3, -5x2, x, -3

 According to a degree: –

Degree of the polynomial	Name of the polynomial	Example
Not defined	Zero polynomial	0
0	Constant polynomial	-12, 4, 7 etc.
1	Linear polynomial	2x+3, x – 3 etc.
2	Quadratic polynomial	2x2 + 3x + 1, x2 – 4 etc.
3	Cubic polynomial	3x3 – 4x2 + 2x + 6
4	Bi quadratic polynomial	4x4 + 2x3 + 45x2 +9x + 7

Zero of the polynomial: Let p(x) be a polynomial, if p(x) = 0 then, x is the zero of the polynomial p(x).

Ex: p(x) = 2x – 2

 P(1) = 2(1) – 2 = 2 – 2 = 0

∴ 1 is the zero of the polynomial.

Zero of the linear polynomial in one variable:

Linear polynomial	Zero of the polynomial
x+ a	– a
x – a	a
ax + b	-b/a
ax – b	b/a

 Dividing polynomials:

If p(x) is divided by g(x), then there exists quotient polynomial q(x) and remainder r(x) such that

p(x) = q(x) × g(x) + r(x)  

this is called division algorithm for polynomials.

Remainder theorem: 

Let p(x) be a polynomial of degree greater than or equal to one and let a be any real number. If p(x) is divided by the linear polynomial (x – a), then the remainder is p(a).

Ex: if p(x) = 3x² – 4 x + 2 is divided by the polynomial (x – 1), then find remainder.

Ans: Given p(x) = 3x² – 4 x + 2

    Remainder is p (1)

⇒ p (1) = 3(1)² – 4 (1) + 2 = 3 – 4 + 2 = 5 – 4 = 1

∴ remainder is 1.

Factor theorem:

If p(x) s a polynomial of degree greater than or equal to one and a is any real number, then x – a is a factor of p(x), if p(a) = 0  and its converse if (x – a) is a factor of p(x), then p(a) = 0.

Ex:  if p(x) = x² – 2x + 1, then show that (x – 1) is a factor of p(x)

Ans: given   polynomial is p(x) = x² – 2x + 1

            P (1) = (1)² – 2(1) + 1 = 1 – 2 + 1 = 2 – 2 = 0  

            ∴ x – 1is the factor of x² – 2x + 1.

Algebraic identities:

(i ) (x + y)² ≡ x² + 2xy + y²         (ii) (x − y)²≡x² − 2xy + y²        (iii) (x + y)(x – y)≡x² – y²

(iv) (x + a) (x + b) ≡ x² + (a + b) x + ab   (v) (x + y + z)² ≡ x² + y² + z² + 2xy + 2yz + 2zx

(v) (x +y)³ ≡ x³ + 3x²y + 3xy² + y³ ≡ x³ + y³ + 3xy (x + y)

(vi) (x − y)³ ≡ x³ − 3x²y + 3xy² + y³ ≡ x³ − y³ + 3xy (x − y)

(vii)  (x + y + z)(x²+ y² + z² – xy – yz – zx) ≡ x³ + y³ + z³ – 3xyz.

3.THE ELEMENTS OF GEOMETRY

Geometry: The word geometry derived from the Greek word ‘geo’ means earth and ‘metron’ means measure.

Euclid’s Elements:  Euclid wrote 13 books called ‘The Elements’. Euclid creates the first system of thought based on fundamental definitions, axioms, propositions rules of inference or logic.

Some definitions of Euclid’s 1^st book of Elements are: (i) A ‘point’ is that that which has no part. (ii) A ‘line’ is the breathless length. (iii) The ends of a line are points. (iv) A straight line is a line which lies evenly with the points itself.  (v) A ‘surface’ is that which has length and breadth only. (vi) The edge of the surface are lines. (vii) A plane surface is a surface which lies evenly with the straight lines on itself.

Note:  In geometry, a point, a line and a plane are undefined terms.

 Axioms: Axioms are statements that are self-evident or assumed to be true within the context of a particular mathematical system. Axioms are elf evident facts and do not require any proof.

 Some of Euclid’s Axioms are:

1. Things which are equal to the same things are equal to another.
2. If equals are added to equals, the wholes are equal.
3. If equals are subtracted from equals, the remainders are also equal.
4. Things which coincide with one another are equal to one another.
5. Things which are double of the same things are equal to one another.
6. Things that are halves of the same things are equal to one another.

Postulates: Postulates are used for the assumptions made in the geometry.

Euclid’s five postulates:

Postulate – 1: There is a unique line that passes through the given two distinct points.

Postulate – 2: A line segment can be extended on either side to form a straight line.

Postulate –3: We can escribe a circle with any centre and any radius.

Postulate – 4: All right angles are equal to one another.

Postulate – 5: If a straight line falling on two straight line makes the interior angles on the same side of it taken together is less than two right angles, then two straight lines, if produced infinitely, meet on that side on which the sum of the angles is less than two right angles.

Equivalent versions of Euclid’s fifth postulate:
 From the fig. sum of the angles, x and y is less than 180⁰

1. Through a point not on a given line, exactly one parallel line may be drawn o the given line (John Playfair).
2. The sum of the angles of any triangle is constant and is equal to two right angles (Legendre).
3. If a straight line intersects any one of two parallel lines, then it will intersect others also (Proclus).
4. Straight lines parallel to the same straight line are parallel to one another (Proclus).

Conjecture or Hypothesis: The statements which are neither proved nor disproved are called conjectures.

---

4. LINES AND ANGLES
Line: Line can be extended in both directions endlessly.

Ray:  It is a part of the line. It begins at a point and goes on endlessly in a specific direction.

Line segment: A part of the line with two endpoints is called a line segment.                                   

     

Collinear points: If three or more points lie on the same line, then they are called collinear points.
              A, B and C are collinear points 

Note: if ‘n’ points lie on a line, then no. of line segments =

Angle:  An angle is formed when two rays originate from the same point. The rays making an angle are called ‘Arms’ of the angle. The common point is called ‘vertex’.  

 Intersecting and Non-intersecting lines:  If two lines meet at any point, then the lines are intersecting lines. If two lines never meet at any point are called non-intersecting lines or parallel lines.

                                                                                                               

Concurrent lines: If two or more lines meet at the point, then that lines are called concurrent lines.
Complementary angles:  Two angles are said to be complementary angles if their um is 90⁰.

 The complementary angle of x⁰ is 90⁰ – x⁰.

Supplementary angles:  Two angles are said to be supplementary angles if their um is 180⁰.

 

 the supplementary angle of x⁰ is 180⁰ – x⁰.

Linear pair of angles: If a ray stands on a straight line, then the sum of the two adjacent angles is so formed is 180⁰.

Note: If the sum of two adjacent angles is 180⁰, then they are called linear pairs of angles.

If the sum of two adjacent angles is 180⁰, then they are called linear pairs of angles.

Note: – if the sum of two adjacent angles is 180⁰, then non-common arms of the angles form a line. This is the converse of a linear pair of angle axiom.

Angles at a point: We know that the sum of all the angles around a point is always 360⁰.

From the figure ∠ 1 + ∠2 ∠ 3 + ∠4 ∠5 = 360⁰

 

Vertically opposite angles:  When two lines intersect at a point, the angles with the same vertex and have no common arm are called vertically opposite angles.

Note: If two lines intersect each other, then the pairs of vertically opposite angles are equal.
∠AOD, ∠BOC; ∠AOC, ∠BOD are vertically opposite angles.

⟹ ∠AOD = ∠BOC; ∠AOC = ∠BOD.

Lines and a transversal:

Transversal: A-line that intersects two or more lines at distinct points is called a transversal.

Angles made by a transversal

∠1, ∠2, ∠7 and ∠8 are exterior angles

∠3, ∠4, ∠5 and ∠6 are interior angles

Corresponding angles: –

Two angles which are lies the same side of the transversal and one interior and another one exterior are called corresponding angles.

 ∠1, ∠5; ∠2, ∠6; ∠3, ∠7 and ∠4, ∠8

Alternate angles: –

Two angles which are the lies opposite sides of the transversal and both interior or exterior are called corresponding angles.

 ∠1, ∠7; ∠2, ∠8 are exterior alternate angles

 ∠3, ∠5; ∠4, ∠6 are interior alternate angles.

∠3, ∠6; ∠4, ∠5 interior angles the same side of the transversal.

Transversal on parallel lines:

∗ If pair of parallel lines are intersected by a transversal then the angles each pair of corresponding angles are equal

⇒ ∠1, =∠5; ∠2= ∠6; ∠3= ∠7 and ∠4= ∠8

∗ If pair of parallel lines are intersected by a transversal then the angles each pair of interior alternate angles are equal.

∠3= ∠5; ∠4= ∠6

∗ If pair of parallel lines are intersected by a transversal then the angles each pair of exterior alternate angles are equal.

∠1= ∠7; ∠2= ∠8

∗ If pair of parallel lines are intersected by a transversal then the angles each pair of interior angles in the same side if the transversal are supplementary.

∠3+∠6= 180⁰; ∠4+ ∠5 = 180⁰

Note:

1. If a transversal intersects two lines and the pair of corresponding angles are equal, then the lines are parallel.
2. If a transversal intersects two lines and the pair of alternate angles are equal, then the lines are parallel.
3. If a transversal intersects two lines and the interior angles on the same side of the transversal are supplementary, then the lines are parallel.

Note: Lines that are parallel to the same line are parallel to each other.

Angle-sum property of a triangle:

The Sum of the angles in a triangle is 180⁰

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180⁰

An exterior angle of a triangle:

When one side of the triangle is produced, the angle thus formed is called the exterior angle. Exterior angle property:- The exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of two interior opposite angles.

x⁰+ y⁰ = z⁰

5.CO-ORDINATE GEOMETRY

The representation of a point on a plane with the idea of two references led to the development of a new branch of mathematics is known as Co-ordinate geometry.

Rene Descartes (1595 – 1650) developed the study of coordinate geometry. He found an association between algebraic equations and geometric curves and figures.

Cartesian system:

 

We use number line by making points on the line at equal distance.

Take two number line, perpendicular to each other in the plane. We locate the position of points with reference to these lines

The point of intersection of these number lines is Origin it is denoted by ‘O’. The horizontal number line is XX^I is called X-axis and the vertical number line YY^I s called as Y-axis.

OX is a positive X-axis, OX^Ι is a negative X-axis.

OY is a positive Y-axis, OY^I is a negative Y-axis.

• The distance of a point from Y-axis is called x co-ordinate or
• The distance of a point from X-axis is called y co-ordinate or
• The co-ordinates of origin are (0,0).
• The x coordinate of a point on y-axis is 0.
• The y c-ordinate of a point on y-axis is 0.
• Equation of x- axis is y = 0.
• Equation of y- axis is x = 0.

6.LINEAR EQUATIONS IN TWO VARIABLES

Equation: The expression which is connected by equality symbol (=) is called an equation.

Ex: x = 5, x + y = 2, x² = 2y etc.

Linear equation: If the degree of the equation is 1, then it is called linear equation.

Ex: x + 2y = 4, 3x – 5 = 0, 4y = 6 etc.

Linear equation in one variable: If a linear equation has only one variable, then it is called ‘linear equation in one variable’.

Ex: x + 3 = 4, 4x – 4 = 0, y – 3 = 0 etc.

Linear equation in two variables: If a linear equation has two variables, then it is called ‘linear equation in two variables.

Ex: x + 3y = 4, 4x – 4y = 0, y – 3x = 0 etc.

General form:

The general form of linear equation in two variables ‘x’ and ‘y’ is ax + by c = 0, where a, b, c are real numbers and a ≠ 0, b ≠ 0.

Solution: Any pair of values of ‘x’ and ‘y’ which satisfies the linear equations in two variables is called its solution.

Ex: x + y = 3

x = 2, y =1; x =1, y =2, x =0, y =3; x =3, y = 0 are some solutions of above equation.

∴ For a linear equation in two variables we can find many solutions.

Note: An easy way of getting two solutions is put x = 0 and get corresponding value of y. Similarly we can put y= 0 and get the corresponding value of x.

Graph of linear equation in two variables:

Ex: x + y = 3

Sol: Given equation is x + y = 3

   y = 3 – x

x	0	1	2	3
y = 3 – x	3	2	1	0
(x, y)	(0, 3)	(1, 2)	(2, 1)	(3, 0)

 

                    

Steps to draw the graph of the linear equations in two variables:

1. Write the linear equation.
2. Put x = 0 in the given equation and find the corresponding value of y.
3. Put y = 0 in the given equation and find the corresponding value of x.
4. Write the values of ‘x’ and its corresponding value of ‘y’ as coordinates of x and y respectively as (x, y) form.
5. Plot the points on graph paper.
6. Join these points.

Observations from the graph:

• Every solution of the linear equation in two variables represents a point on the line of the equation.
• Every point on this line is a solution of the linear equation in two variables.
• Any point that does not lie on this line not a solution of the equation.
• The collection points that give the solution of the linear equation in two variables is the graph of the linear equation.

Equation of the line parallel to X – axis:

Equation of X – axis is y = 0.

Equation of any line parallel to X – axis is y = k, where k is the distance from above or below of the X – axis.

Equation of the line parallel to Y – axis:

Equation of Y – axis is x = 0.

Equation of any line parallel to Y – axis is x = k, where k is the distance from left or right of the Y – axis.

Chord: A line segment joining any two points on the circle is called chord of the circle.

AB is the chord

Arc: The part of the circle between ant two points on it is called Arc of the circle.

Arc of circle is denoted by

If the arc is smaller than the semicircle, then it is called ‘minor arc’

If the arc is greater than the semicircle, then it is called ‘major arc’

Segment:

The region between the chord and the minor arc is called minor segment.

  The region between the chord and the major segment is called the major segment.

Sector:

The area enclosed by an arc and the two radii joining the centre to the end points of an arc is called a sector.

∎ Equal chords of a circle subtend equal angles at the centre.

∎ If the angle subtended by the chords of a circle at the centre are equal, then the chords are equal.

∎ The perpendicular from the centre of the circle to a chord bisects the chord.

∎ If a line drawn from the centre of the circle bisects the chord then the line is perpendicular to that chord.

∎ There is one and only one circle that passes through three non- collinear points.

∎ Arcs of Equal length subtend equal angles at the centre.

∎ The angle subtended by an arc at the centre is twice the angle subtended by it on the remaining arc of the circle.

∎ Angle subtended by an arc in the same segment are equal.

∎ If line segment joining two points, subtends equal angle at two other points lying on the same side of the line then the four points lie on a circle.

Concyclic points:

The points which are lie on the same circle are called concyclic points.

Cyclic quadrilateral:

If the vertices of a quadrilateral lie on the same circle, then it is called cyclic quadrilateral.

∎ The pairs of opposite angles of acyclic quadrilateral are supplementary.

∎ If the sum of any pair of opposite angles in a quadrilateral is 180⁰, then the quadrilateral is cyclic.

14. PROBABILITY

Random Experiment: If in an experiment all the possible outcomes are known in advance and none of the out comes can be predicted with certainty, then such an experiment is called a random experiment.

Ex: Throwing a die, Tossing A coin.

Events: The possible out comes of a trail are called events.

To measure the chance of its happening numerically we classify them as follows:

Certain: Something that must happen

Equally likely: some thing that have the same chance of occurring.

Less likely: Something that would occur with less chance.

More likely: Something that would occur with more chance.

Impossible: Some thing that cannot be happen.

Probability of an event =
