CLASS X : CHAPTER - 1, REAL NUMBERS, IMPORTANT FORMULAS & CONCEPTS, EUCLID’S DIVISION LEMMA, Given positive integers a and b, there exist unique integers q and r satisfying a = bq + r, where, 0  r  b., Here we call ‘a’ as dividend, ‘b’ as divisor, ‘q’ as quotient and ‘r’ as remainder.,  Dividend = (Divisor x Quotient) + Remainder, If in Euclid’s lemma r = 0 then b would be HCF of ‘a’ and ‘b’., NATURAL NUMBERS, Counting numbers are called natural numbers i.e. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ……………. are natural numbers., WHOLE NUMBERS, All counting numbers/natural numbers along with 0 are called whole numbers i.e. 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ……………. are whole numbers., INTEGERS, All natural numbers, negative of natural numbers and 0, together are called integers. i.e., ………. – 3, – 2, – 1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, ………….. are integers., ALGORITHM, An algorithm is a series of well defined steps which gives a procedure for solving a type of, problem., LEMMA, A lemma is a proven statement used for proving another statement., EUCLID’S DIVISION ALGORITHM, Euclid’s division algorithm is a technique to compute the Highest Common Factor (HCF) of two, given positive integers. Recall that the HCF of two positive integers a and b is the largest positive, integer d that divides both a and b., To obtain the HCF of two positive integers, say c and d, with c > d, follow the steps below:, Step 1 : Apply Euclid’s division lemma, to c and d. So, we find whole numbers, q and r such that c, = dq + r, 0  r  d ., Step 2 : If r = 0, d is the HCF of c and d. If r  0 apply the division lemma to d and r., Step 3 : Continue the process till the remainder is zero. The divisor at this stage will be the required, HCF., This algorithm works because HCF (c, d) = HCF (d, r) where the symbol HCF (c, d) denotes the, HCF of c and d, etc., The Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic, Every composite number can be expressed ( factorised) as a product of primes, and this factorisation, is unique, apart from the order in which the prime factors occur., The prime factorisation of a natural number is unique, except for the order of its factors., HCF is the highest common factor also known as GCD i.e. greatest common divisor., LCM of two numbers is their least common multiple., Property of HCF and LCM of two positive integers ‘a’ and ‘b’:, Prepared by: M.

For example, 4x + 2 is a polynomial in the variable x of degree 1, 2y2 – 3y + 4 is a, polynomial in the variable y of degree 2,, A polynomial of degree 0 is called a constant polynomial., A polynomial p(x) = ax + b of degree 1 is called a linear polynomial., A polynomial p(x) = ax2 + bx + c of degree 2 is called a quadratic polynomial., A polynomial p(x) = ax3 + bx2 + cx + d of degree 3 is called a cubic polynomial., A polynomial p(x) = ax4 + bx3 + cx2 + dx + e of degree 4 is called a bi-quadratic polynomial., VALUE OF A POLYNOMIAL AT A GIVEN POINT x = k, If p(x) is a polynomial in x, and if k is any real number, then the value obtained by replacing x by k, in p(x), is called the value of p(x) at x = k, and is denoted by p(k)., ZERO OF A POLYNOMIAL, A real number k is said to be a zero of a polynomial p(x), if p(k) = 0., Geometrically, the zeroes of a polynomial p(x) are precisely the x-coordinates of the points,, where the graph of y = p(x) intersects the x -axis., A quadratic polynomial can have at most 2 zeroes and a cubic polynomial can have at most 3, zeroes., In general, a polynomial of degree ‘n’ has at the most ‘n’ zeroes., RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ZEROES & COEFFICIENTS OF POLYNOMIALS, Type of, General form, No. of, Relationship between zeroes and coefficients, Polynomial, zeroes, Linear, ax + b, a ≠ 0, 1, b, Constant term, k   , i.e. k  , a, Coefficient of x, 2, Quadratic, ax + bx + c, a ≠ 0, 2, Coefficient of x, b, Sum of zeroes (   )  , = , 2, Coefficient of x, a, Constant term, c, Product of zeroes ( ) , =, 2, Coefficient of x, a, 2, Cubic, ax3 + bx2 + cx + d ,, 3, Coefficient of x, b, Sum of zeroes (     )  , , a≠0, 3, a, Coefficient of x, Product of sum of zeroes taken two at a time, Coefficient of x c, (     ) , , Coefficient of x 3 a, Constant term, d, Product of zeroes ( )  , , 3, Coefficient of x, a, Prepared by: M.

(These curves are called parabolas.), The following three cases can be happen about the graph of quadratic polynomial ax2 + bx + c :, Case (i) : Here, the graph cuts x-axis at two distinct points A and A'. The x-coordinates of A and A', are the two zeroes of the quadratic polynomial ax2 + bx + c in this case, , a>0, , a<0, , Case (ii) : Here, the graph cuts the x-axis at exactly one point, i.e., at two coincident points. So, the, two points A and A′ of Case (i) coincide here to become one point A. The x-coordinate of A is the, only zero for the quadratic polynomial ax2 + bx + c in this case., , a>0, Prepared by: M.

Case (iii) : Here, the graph is either completely above the x-axis or completely below the x-axis. So,, it does not cut the x-axis at any point.

CLASS X : CHAPTER - 5, ARITHMETIC PROGRESSION (AP), IMPORTANT FORMULAS & CONCEPTS, SEQUENCE, An arrangement of numbers in a definite order according to some rule is called a sequence. In other, words, a pattern of numbers in which succeeding terms are obtained from the preceding term by, adding/subtracting a fixed number or by multiplying with/dividing by a fixed number, is called, sequence or list of numbers., e.g. 1,2,3,4,5, A sequence is said to be finite or infinite accordingly it has finite or infinite number of terms. The, various numbers occurring in a sequence are called its terms., ARITHMETIC PROGRESSION ( AP )., An arithmetic progression is a list of numbers in which each term is obtained by adding a fixed, number to the preceding term except the first term., This fixed number is called the common difference of the AP. It can be positive, negative or zero., Let us denote the first term of an AP by a1, second term by a2, . . ., nth term by an and the common, difference by d. Then the AP becomes a1, a2, a3, . . ., an., So, a2 – a1 = a3 – a2 = . . . = an – an –1 = d., The general form of an arithmetic progression is given by, a, a + d, a + 2d, a + 3d, . . ., where a is the first term and d the common difference., nth Term of an AP, Let a1, a2, a3, . . . be an AP whose first term a1 is a and the common difference is d., Then,, the second term a2 = a + d = a + (2 – 1) d, the third term a3 = a2 + d = (a + d) + d = a + 2d = a + (3 – 1) d, the fourth term a4 = a3 + d = (a + 2d) + d = a + 3d = a + (4 – 1) d, ........, ........, Looking at the pattern, we can say that the nth term an = a + (n – 1) d., So, the nth term an of the AP with first term a and common difference d is given by, an = a + (n – 1) d., an is also called the general term of the AP. If there are m terms in the AP, then am represents the, last term which is sometimes also denoted by l., nth Term from the end of an AP, Let the last term of an AP be ‘l’ and the common difference of an AP is ‘d’ then the nth term from, the end of an AP is given by, ln = l – (n – 1) d., , Prepared by: M.

CLASS X : CHAPTER - 9, SOME APPLICATIONS TO TRIGONOMETRY, IMPORTANT FORMULAS & CONCEPTS, ANGLE OF ELEVATION, In the below figure, the line AC drawn from the eye of the student to the top of the minar is called, the line of sight. The student is looking at the top of the minar. The angle BAC, so formed by the line, of sight with the horizontal, is called the angle of elevation of the top of the minar from the eye of, the student. Thus, the line of sight is the line drawn from the eye of an observer to the point in the, object viewed by the observer., , The angle of elevation of the point viewed is the angle formed by the line of sight with the, horizontal when the point being viewed is above the horizontal level, i.e., the case when we raise our, head to look at the object, ANGLE OF DEPRESSION, In the below figure, the girl sitting on the balcony is looking down at a flower pot placed on a stair of, the temple. In this case, the line of sight is below the horizontal level. The angle so formed by the, line of sight with the horizontal is called the angle of depression. Thus, the angle of depression of a, point on the object being viewed is the angle formed by the line of sight with the horizontal when the, point is below the horizontal level, i.e., the case when we lower our head to look at the point being, viewed, , Trigonometric Ratios (T - Ratios) of an acute angle of a right triangle, In XOY-plane, let a revolving line OP starting from OX, trace out XOP=From P (x, y)draw PM,  to OX., In right angled triangle OMP.

CLASS X : CHAPTER - 10, CIRCLES, IMPORTANT FORMULAS & CONCEPTS, Circle, The collection of all the points in a plane, which are at a fixed distance from a fixed point in the, plane, is called a circle., The fixed point is called the centre of the circle and the fixed distance is called the radius of the, circle. In the below figure, O is the centre and the length OP is the radius of the circle., , The line segment joining the centre and any point on the circle is also called a radius of the, circle., A circle divides the plane on which it lies into three parts. They are: (i) inside the circle, which is, also called the interior of the circle; (ii) the circle and (iii) outside the circle, which is also called, the exterior of the circle. The circle and its interior make up the circular region., The chord is the line segment having its two end points lying on the circumference of the circle., The chord, which passes through the centre of the circle, is called a diameter of the circle., A diameter is the longest chord and all diameters have the same length, which is equal to two, times the radius., A piece of a circle between two points is called an arc., The longer one is called the major arc PQ and the shorter one is called the minor arc PQ., The length of the complete circle is called its circumference., The region between a chord and either of its arcs is called a segment of the circular region or, simply a segment of the circle. There are two types of segments also, which are the major, segment and the minor segment., The region between an arc and the two radii, joining the centre to the end points of the arc is, called a sector. The minor arc corresponds to the minor sector and the major arc corresponds to, the major sector., In the below figure, the region OPQ is the minor sector and remaining part of the circular region, is the major sector. When two arcs are equal, that is, each is a semicircle, then both segments and, both sectors become the same and each is known as a semicircular region., , Prepared by: M. S.

CLASS X: CHAPTER - 14, STATISTICS, IMPORTANT FORMULAS & CONCEPTS, In many real-life situations, it is helpful to describe data by a single number that is most, representative of the entire collection of numbers. Such a number is called a measure of central, tendency. The most commonly used measures are as follows., 1. The mean, or average, of ‘n’ numbers is the sum of the numbers divided by n., 2. The median of ‘n’ numbers is the middle number when the numbers are written in order. If n is, even, the median is the average of the two middle numbers., 3. The mode of ‘n’ numbers is the number that occurs most frequently. If two numbers tie for most, frequent occurrence, the collection has two modes and is called bimodal., MEAN OF GROUPED DATA, Direct method,  fi x i, Mean, x ,  fi, Assume mean method or Short-cut method,  fi d i where d  x  A, Mean, x  A , i, i,  fi, Step Deviation method,  fiu i  h where u  xi  A, Mean, x  A , h,  fi, MODE OF GROUPED DATA, , f1  f 0 , Mode  l  ,  h,  2 f1  f 0  f 2 , where l = lower limit of the modal class,, h = size of the class interval (assuming all class sizes to be equal),, f1 = frequency of the modal class,, f0 = frequency of the class preceding the modal class,, f2 = frequency of the class succeeding the modal class., Cumulative Frequency: The cumulative frequency of a class is the frequency obtained by, adding the frequencies of all the classes preceeding the given class., MEDIAN OF GROUPED DATA, n, ,  2  cf , Median  l  ,  h, f, , , , , where l = lower limit of median class,, n = number of observations,, cf = cumulative frequency of class preceding the median class,, f = frequency of median class,, h = class size (assuming class size to be equal)., , Prepared by: M.

CLASS X : CHAPTER - 15, PROBABILITY, IMPORTANT FORMULAS & CONCEPTS, PROBABILITY, Experimental or empirical probability P(E) of an event E is, P(E) =, , Number of trials in which the event happened, Total number of trials, , The theoretical probability (also called classical probability) of an event A, written as P(A), is, defined as, Number of outcomes favourable to A, P(A) =, Number of all possible outcomes of the experiment, Two or more events of an experiment, where occurrence of an event prevents occurrences of all, other events, are called Mutually Exclusive Events., COMPLIMENTARY EVENTS AND PROBABILITY, We denote the event 'not E' by E . This is called the complement event of event E., So, P(E) + P(not E) = 1, i.e., P(E) + P( E ) = 1, which gives us P( E ) = 1 – P(E)., In general, it is true that for an event E, P( E ) = 1 – P(E), , , The probability of an event which is impossible to occur is 0. Such an event is called an, impossible event., , , The probability of an event which is sure (or certain) to occur is 1. Such an event is called a sure, event or a certain event., , , The probability of an event E is a number P(E) such that 0 ≤ P (E) ≤ 1, , An event having only one outcome is called an elementary event. The sum of the probabilities of, all the elementary events of an experiment is 1., , DECK OF CARDS AND PROBABILITY, , A deck of playing cards consists of 52 cards which are divided into 4 suits of 13 cards each., They are black spades (♠) red hearts (♥), red diamonds (♦) and black clubs (♣)., The cards in each suit are Ace, King, Queen, Jack, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3 and 2. Kings,, Queens and Jacks are called face cards., Prepared by: M. S. KumarSwamy, TGT(Maths), , Page - 230 -

Equally likely events : Two or more events are said to be equally likely if each one of them has an, equal chance of occurrence., Mutually Exclusive events : Two or more events are mutually exclusive if the occurrence of each, event prevents the every other event., Complementary events : Consider an event has few outcomes. Event of all other outcomes in the, sample survey which are not in the favourable event is called Complementary event., Exhaustive events : All the events are exhaustive events if their union is the sample space., Sure events : The sample space of a random experiment is called sure or certain event as any one of, its elements will surely occur in any trail of the experiment., Impossible event : An event which will occur on any account is called an impossible event., , Prepared by: M.
