REAL NUMBERS
1. Important Concepts/ Result
Theorem 1.1 (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.
HCF: Product of the smallest power of each common prime factor in the numbers.
LCM: Product of the greatest power of each prime factor, involved in the numbers.
Theorem 1.2: Let p be a prime number. If p divides a2, then p divides a, whereas is a positive integer.
Proof: Let the prime factorisation of 𝑎 be as follows:
𝑎 = 𝑝1 , 𝑝2 , . . . , 𝑝𝑛 , where 𝑝1 , 𝑝2 , . . . , 𝑝𝑛 are primes, not necessarily distinct. Therefore,
𝑎2 = ( 𝑝1𝑝2 . . . 𝑝𝑛)( 𝑝1𝑝2 . . . 𝑝𝑛) = 𝑝2 1𝑝2 2 . . . 𝑝2 𝑛. now, we are given that p divides a2.
Therefore, from the Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic, it follows that p is one of the prime factors of a2.
However, using the uniqueness part of the Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic, we realise that the only
prime factors of a2 are 𝑝1 , 𝑝2 , . . . , 𝑝𝑛 . So p is one of 𝑝1 , 𝑝2 , . . . , 𝑝𝑛 .
Now, since 𝑎 = 𝑝1 , 𝑝2 , . . . , 𝑝𝑛 , and 𝑝 divides a.
We are now ready to give a proof that 2 is irrational. The proof is based on a technique called „proof by
contradiction‟.
Theorem 1.3: 2 is irrational.
Proof: Let us assume, to the contrary, that 2 is rational.
r
So, we can find integers r and s (≠ 0) such that 2 = s . Suppose r and s have a common factor other than 1.
a
Then, we divide by the common factor to get 2 , where a and b are co-prime.
b
So, b 2 = a.
Squaring on both sides and rearranging, we get 2b2 = a2 . Therefore, 2 divides a2.
Now, by Theorem 1.3, it follows that 2 divides a.
So, we can write a = 2c for some integer c.
Substituting for a, we get 2b2 = 4c2 , that is, b2 = 2c2.
This means that 2 divides b2, and so 2 divides b (again using Theorem 1.3 with p = 2). Therefore, a and b
have at least 2 as a common factor.
But this contradicts the fact that a and b have no common factors other than 1. This contradiction has arisen
because of our incorrect assumption that 2is rational. So, we conclude that 2 is irrational.
2. Some Illustrations/ Examples
i) MCQs
1. What is the HCF of the least prime number and the least composite number
(a) 1 (b) 2 (c) 3 (d) 4 Solution: (b) Least prime number = 2,

ii) Short answer type questions
1. Show that 6- 2 is irrational
𝑎
Solution: Let 6- 2 is rational. Then, 6- 2 = 𝑏
(where a, b are co-prime integers and b ≠ 0)
𝑎 6𝑏−𝑎
6- 𝑏
= 2=> 𝑏
= 2
𝑎
Since a and b are integers, we get 6 - 𝑏
is rational and so 2 is rational.
But this contradicts the fact that 2is irrational. Hence out assumption 6- 2 is rational is wrong. So 6- 2is
irrational.
2. Find the HCF and LCM of 12, 14 and 16 using prime factorisation method.
Solution: 12 = 2 x 2 x 3 = 22 x 31, 14 = 2 x 7 = 21 x 71, 16 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 24
H.C.F (12, 14, 16) = 21 = 2, LCM (12, 14, 16) = 24 x 31 x 71 = 16 x 21= 336
3. If the HCF of 65 and 117 is expressible in the form 65m – 117, then the value of m is
Solution: 117 > 65, 117 = 65 × 1 + 52, 65 = 52 × 1 + 13, 52 = 13 × 4 + 0, HCF(65,117) = 13
According to the given, 65𝑚 – 117 = 13, 65m = 117 + 13, 65m = 130, m = 130/65 = 2

Ques-2 Solve the following system of equation by substitution method: x + y = 14 and x – y = 4
SOLUTION: Equations are x + y = 14 ……… (i) x – y = 4 ………(ii)
from equation (ii) find x in term of y x = y + 4 ……… (iii)
substitute this x in (i), we get (y + 4) + y = 14, or 2y + 4 = 14, or 2y = 14 – 4
or 2y = 10 or y = 10/2 , or y = 5
Now from equation (iii) we find the value of x with the help of (y = 5) x = 5 + 4 = 9
Thus, x = 9 and y = 5

QUADRATIC EQUATIONS
I. Important Concepts / Results
A quadratic polynomial of the form ax² + bx + c, where a ≠ 0 and a, b, c are real numbers, is called a
quadratic equation
when ax² + bx + c = 0.
Here a and b are the coefficients of x² and x respectively and „c‟ is a constant term.
Any value is a solution of a quadratic equation if and only if it satisfies the quadratic equation.
Quadratic formula: The roots, i.e., α and β of a quadratic equation ax² + bx + c = 0 are given
−𝑏± 𝑏 2 −4𝑎𝑐 −𝑏± 𝐷
by 𝑥 = 2𝑎
where b² – 4ac ≥ 0 or 𝑥 = 2𝑎
Here, the value b² – 4ac=D is known as the discriminant and is generally denoted by D. „D‟ helps us to
determine the nature of roots for a given quadratic equation. Thus D = b² – 4ac.
The rules are: If D = 0 ⇒ The roots are Real and Equal. If D > 0 ⇒ The two roots are Real and Unequal.
If D < 0 ⇒ No Real roots exist.
If α and β are the roots of the quadratic equation, then Quadratic equation is:
x² – (α + β) x + αβ = 0 Or x² – (sum of roots) x + product of roots = 0
Examples
i) MCQ
1) 1. Which of the following is not a quadratic equation
(a) x² + 3x – 5 = 0 (b) x² + x3 + 2 = 0 (c) 3 + x + x² = 0 (d) x² – 9 = 0
Ans:- (b)
:Reason: Since it has degree 3.
2) The polynomial equation x (x + 1) + 8 = (x + 2) (x – 2) is
(a) linear equation (b) quadratic equation (c) cubic equation
(d) bi-quadratic equation
Ans:- (a)
Explaination: We have x(x + 1) + 8 = (x + 2) (x – 2)
⇒ x² + x + 8 = x² – 4
⇒ x² + x + 8- x² + 4 = 0
⇒ x + 12 = 0, which is a linear equation.
3) The roots of the quadratic equation 6x² – x – 2 = 0 are
Ans:- ( c)
Explaination:Reason: We have 6×2 – x – 2 = 0
⇒ 6x² + 3x-4x-2 = 0
⇒ 3x(2x + 1) -2(2x + 1) = 0
⇒ (2x + 1) (3x – 2) = 0
⇒ 2x + 1 = 0 or 3x – 2 = 0
1 2
∴ x =− 22, x = 3
4) If one root of the quadratic equation 2x² + kx – 6 = 0 is 2, the value of k is
(a) 1 (b) -1 (c) 2 (d) -2
Ans: (b)
Reason: Scice x = 2 is a root of the equation 2x² + kx -6 = 0
∴ 2(2)² +k(2) – 6 = 0
⇒ 8 + 2k – 6 = 0
19
⇒ 2k = -2
∴ k = -1
5) The roots of the equation 7x² + x – 1 = 0 are
(a) real and distinct (b) real and equal (c) not real (d) none of these
Answer: (a)
Reason: Here a = 2, b = 1, c = -1
∴ D = b² – 4ac = (1)² – 4 × 2 × (-1) = 1 + 8 = 9 > 0
∴ Roots of the given equation are real and distinct.
Short Answer type Questions:-
1) If the equation 12x² + 4kx + 3 = 0 has real and equal roots, find the value of k
Solution: Here a = 12, b = 4k, c = 3
Since the given equation has real and equal roots
∴ b² – 4ac = 0
⇒ (4k)² – 4 × 12 × 3 = 0
⇒ 16k² – 144 = 0
⇒ k² = 9
⇒ k = ±3
2) Find the roots of the quadratic equation 2x2 + x – 6 = 0
Solution: x2 – 5x + 2x – 10=0
=>x(x – 5) + 2(x – 5)=0
=>(x – 5)(x + 2)=0
Therefore, x – 5 = 0 or x + 2 = 0
=> x = 5 or x = -2
3) Find two consecutive positive integers, the sum of whose squares is 365.
Solution:
Let us say the two consecutive positive integers are x and x + 1.
Therefore, as per the given questions,
x2 + (x + 1)2 = 365
⇒ x2 + x2 + 1 + 2x = 365
⇒ 2x2 + 2x – 364 = 0
⇒ x2 + x – 182 = 0
⇒ x2 + 14x – 13x – 182 = 0
⇒ x(x + 14) -13(x + 14) = 0
⇒ (x + 14)(x – 13) = 0
Thus, either, x + 14 = 0 or x – 13 = 0,
⇒ x = – 14 or x = 13
Since the integers are positive, x can be 13 only.
∴ x + 1 = 13 + 1 = 14
Therefore, two consecutive positive integers will be 13 and 14.

ARITHMETIC PROGRESSIONS
KEY POINTS
1. An arithmetic progression (AP) is a list of numbers in which each term is obtained by adding a
fixed number d to the preceding term, except the first term. The fixed number d is called the common
difference.
The general form of an AP is a, a + d, a + 2d, a + 3d, ……..
2. A given list of numbers a1 , a2 , a3, a4, a5, . . . is an AP, if the differences a2 – a1 , a3 – a2 , a4 – a3 ,
. . ., give the same value, i.e., ak + 1 – ak is the same for different values of k.
3. In an AP with first term a and common difference d, the nth term (or the general term) is given by
an = a + (n – 1) d.
𝑛
4. The sum of the first n terms of an AP is given by :𝑆𝑛 = 2 2𝑎 + 𝑛 − 1 𝑑
5. If l is the last term of the finite AP, say the nth term, then the sum of all terms of the AP is given
𝑛
by : 𝑆𝑛 = 2 𝑎 + 𝑙)
𝑎+𝑐
6. If a, b, c are in AP, then b = 2
and b is called the arithmetic mean of a and c
MCQS
1. The sum of the first five multiples of 3 is:
(a) 45(b) 55(c) 65(d) 75
Answer: (a) 45
Explanation: The first five multiples of 3 is 3, 6, 9, 12 and 15
a=3 and d=3n=5
Sum, Sn = n/2[2a+(n-1)d]
S5 = 5/2[2(3)+(5-1)3]=5/2[6+12]=5/2[18]=5 x 9= 45
2. The 10th term of the AP: 5, 8, 11, 14, … is
(a) 32 (b) 35 (c) 38 (d) 185
Answer: (a) 32
Explanation:
Given AP: 5, 8, 11, 14,….
First term = a = 5
Common difference = d = 8 – 5 = 3
nth term of an AP = an = a + (n – 1)d
Now, 10th term = a10 = a + (10 – 1)d
= 5 + 9(3)= 5 + 27= 32
3. In an AP, if d = -4, n = 7, an = 4, then a is
(a) 6 (b) 7 (c) 20 (d) 28
Answer: (d) 28
Solution;Given,d = -4, n = 7, an = 4
We know that,an = a + (n – 1)d
4 = a + (7 – 1)(-4)
4 = a + 6(-4)
4 = a – 24
⇒ a = 4 + 24 = 28
24
4. 30th term of the A.P: 10, 7, 4, …, is
(a) 97 (b) 77 (c) -77 (d) -87
Answer: (c) -77
Explanation: Given,A.P. = 10, 7, 4, …
First term, a = 10, Common difference, d = a2 − a1 = 7−10 = −3
As we know, for an A.P., an = a +(n−1)d
Putting the values;
a30 = 10+(30−1)(−3)
a30 = 10+(29)(−3)
a30 = 10−87 = −77
5. The missing terms in AP: __, 13, __, 3 are:
(a) 11 and 9 (b) 17 and 9 (c) 18 and 8 (d) 18 and 9
Answer: (c)
Explanation: a2 = 13 and a4 = 3
The nth term of an AP;
an = a+(n−1) d
a2 = a +(2-1)d
13 = a+d ………………. (i)
a4 = a+(4-1)d
3 = a+3d ………….. (ii)
Subtracting equation (i) from (ii), we get,
– 10 = 2d
d=–5
13 = a+(-5)
a3 = 18+(3-1)(-5)= 18+2(-5) = 18-10 = 8 (third term).
CASE STUDY :Q. 1. India is competitive manufacturing location due to the low cost of manpower and
strong technical and engineering capabilities contributing to higher quality production runs. The
production of TV sets in a factory increases uniformly by a fixed number every year. It produced 16000

Based on the above information, answer the following questions:
(i)Find the production during first year.
OR
(i) Find the production during 8th year.
(ii) Find the production during first 3 years.
(iii) In which year, the production is `₹ 29,200.
OR
(iii) Find the difference of the production during 7th year and 4th year.
Sol. `(i) 5000
Explanation: a6 = 16,000
a + (n + 1)d = 16,000
a + (6 – 1)d = 16,000
a + 5d = 16,000 ...(i)
a9 = 22,600
a + (n – 1)d = 22,600
a + (9 – 1)d = 22,600
a + 8d = 22,600 ...(ii)
25
Solving equation (i) and (ii) a + 5d = 16,000
a + 8d = 22,600 – – – –
3d = – 6,600
d = 2,200
Now, putting d = 2,200 in equation (i)
a + 5d = 16,000
a + 5 × 2,200 = 16,000
a + 11,000 = 16,000
a = 5,000
OR
(i) Sol. Production during 8th year is (a + 7d) = 5000 + 2(2200) = 20400
(II) Sol. Production during first 3 year = 5000 + 7200 + 9400 = 21600
(III)Sol. N = 12
Explanation: an = 29,200
a + (n – 1)d = 29,200
(x – 1)2,900 = 29,200 – 5,000
2,200n – 2,200 = 24,200
2200n = 26,400 n = 26 400/ 2 200 ,n = 12
(IV) Sol. Difference = 18200 – 11600 = 6600
SHORT ANSWER TYPE
Q.1: Which term of the AP: 21, 18, 15, . . . is – 81? Also, is any term 0? Give reason for your answer.
Solution, a = 21d = 18 - 21 = -3 .
Let -81 be the nth term.
Now,nth term, -81 = 21 + ( n -1 ) -3
-81 = 21 -3n + 3
-81 = 24-3n
3n = 24 + 81
n=35Therefore, the 35th term is -81 and the eighth term is 0.
Q.2: The fourth term of an AP is zero. Prove that its 25th term is triple its 11th term.
Ans: Given that a4=0
⇒a+3d=0
⇒a=−3d …(1)
We have to prove that a25=3a11
⇒a+24d=3(a+10d)
⇒a+24d=3a+30d
From equation (1),
⇒−3d+24d=3(−3d)+30d
⇒21d=21d
∴LHS=RHS
Hence proved.

CASE STUDY 2- SCALE FACTOR
A scale drawing of an object is the same shape at the object but a different size.
The scale of a drawing is a comparison of the length used on a drawing to the
length it represents. The scale is written as a ratio. The ratio of two corresponding
sides in similar figures is called the scale factor
Scale factor= length in image / corresponding length in object
If one shape can become another using revising, then the shapes are similar.
Hence, two shapes are similar when one can become the other after a resize, flip,
slide or turn. In the photograph below showing the side view of a train engine.
Scale factor is 1:200.
This means that a length of 1 cm on the photograph above corresponds to a length of 200cm or
2 m, of the actual engine. The scale can also be written as the ratio of two lengths.
Q1. If the length of the model is 11cm, then the overall length of the engine in the photograph above,

COORDINATE GEOMETRY
IMPORTANT CONCEPTS
A pair of numbers locate points on a plane called the coordinates. The distance of a point from the y-axis is
known as abscissa or x-coordinate. The distance of a point from the x-axis is called ordinate or y-
coordinate.
Example: Consider a point P(3, 2), where 3 is the abscissa, and 2 is the
ordinate. 3 represent the distance of point P from the y-axis, and 2
represents the distance of point P from the x-axis.
Distance Formula
Distance between any two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by
d ( x2 x1 ) 2 ( y 2 y1 ) 2
Where d i2s the distance between the points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2).
Section Formula
If the point P(x, y) divides the line segment joining A(x1, y1) and B(x2, y2) internally in the ratio m:n, then,
the coordinates of P are given by the section formula as:
mx nx1 my 2 ny1
P(x,y) = ( 2 , )
mn mn
●Midpoint formula:
The coordinates of the point P(x, y) which is the midpoint of the line segment joining the points A(𝑥1 , 𝑦1),
and B(𝑥2 ,𝑦2) are:
P(x , y) =
36
Q4. A line intersects the y-axis and x-axis at the points P and Q, respectively. If (2,−5) is the mid-
point of PQ, then the coordinates of P and Q are, respectively
(a) (0, −5), (2, 0) (c) (0, 10), (−4,0)
(b) (0,4),(−10,0) (d) (0,−10),(4,0)
Q5. Assertion :The distance point P(2,3) from the x-axis is 3.
Reason: The distance from x-axis is equal to its ordinate.
a.) Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
b.) Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion.
c.) Assertion is true but the reason is false. d.) Both assertion and reason are false.

a) 4/5 b) 4/3 c) 3/4 d) 1
Sol: sinθ = (opposite side) / hypotenuse = 3/5
Opposite side= 3x
Hypotenuse = 5x
By Pythagoras theorem : (hypotenuse)2 = (opposite side)2 +(adjacent side)2
(5x)2 = (3x)2 + (adjacent side)2
25x2 = 9x2 + (adjacent side)2
25x2 - 9x2 = (adjacent side)2
16x2 =(adjacent side)2
4x =(adjacent side)
cotθ = (adjacent side) / (opposite side)

a) 2 b) 1/√3 c) 2/√3 d) √3/2
sol: cosθ = 1/2 = cos 600 (as per table)
θ = 600
cosec θ = cosec 600 = 2/√3 (option „c‟ is the correct answer)
3) sec2450 – tan2450 = ?

Sol:
secθ = (Hypotenuse) / (adjacent side) = 13 / 12
Hypotenuse = 13x
adjacent side = 12x
(hypotenuse)2 = (opposite side)2 +(adjacent side)2
(13x)2 = (opposite side)2 +(12x)2

SURFACE AREA AND VOLUME
In our earlier classes, we have already learnt about plane figures and some solid figures also.
Plane Figures: A plane figure has only two dimensions namely, length and breadth.
For example:
Triangles, rectangles, circles, etc
Solid Figures: A solid figure has three dimensions namely, length, breadth and height (thickness)
For examples:
Cuboids, cubes, cylinders, spheres, cones, etc.
(i) Examples of cuboids are a book, a tile, a room, etc
(ii) a cube is a cuboid whose length, breadth and height are equal.
Examples of cubes are dice, ice-cream, etc
(iii) Examples of cylinders are jars, circular pipes, circular pencils, road rollers, etc.
(iv)Examples of cones are conical tents, ice-cream cones (when it has not been filled), funnel, etc
(v) Examples of spheres are cricket balls, fully blown footballs etc.
Some useful formulae
Cuboid: Let l be the length, b be the breadth and h be the height of a cuboid
Total surface area (TSA) of the cuboid = 2(𝑙𝑏 + 𝑏 + 𝑙) unit2
Area of four walls = 2(𝑙 + 𝑏) unit2
Volume of cuboid = 𝑙 × 𝑏 × unit3
Cube: Let a be the length of each edge (side) of a cube.
Total surface area (TSA) of the cube = 6a2 unit2
Area of four walls = 4a2 unit2
Volume of cube = a3 unit3
Right circular cylinder: Let r be the radius of the circular base and h be the height of a right circular
cylinder, Then
Curved surface area = 2 π r h
Total surface area of closed right circular cylinder = 2 𝜋𝑟 + 𝑟
Total surface area of right circular cylinder open at the top = (2𝜋𝑟 + π 𝑟 2 )
Volume = π r2h
Right circular cone: Let r be the radius of the circular base, h be the height and l be the slant height of a
right circular cone.l2 = h2 + r2
Circumference of the base = 2𝜋 𝑟
Area of the circular base = π r2
Curved surface area (CSA) = 𝜋 𝑟 𝑙
Total surface area = 𝜋𝑟 (𝑙 + 𝑟)

Long Answer Type Question(2 questions)
Example 1. Two cubes, each of volume 64 cm3 are joined end to end. Find the surface area of the resulting
cuboid.
Solution: Let the length of the edge of each of the two cubes be a cm.
Then, volume of each cube = a3 cm3
Now, 𝑎3 = 64
a = 4 cm.
On joining both the cubes, the dimensions of the resulting cuboid
Length (l) = 4 + 4 = 8cm, breadth = 4 cm, height = 4 cm.
Solution: Let BPC be the hemisphere and ABC be the cone standing on the base of
the hemisphere. The radius BO of the hemisphere (as well as of the cone) = 1/2 × 4 cm = 2 cm.

= 3 x 3.14 x (2)3 + 3 x 3.14 (2)2 x 2 = 25.12 cm3
Now, let the right circular cylinder EFGH circumscribe the given solid. The radius of the base of the right
circular cylinder = HP = BO = 2 cm, and its height is
EH = AO + OP = (2 + 2) cm = 4 cm
So, the volume required = volume of the right circular cylinder – volume of the toy
= 3.14 (2)2 x 4 – 25.12 = 25.12 cm3
Hence, the required difference of the two volumes = 25.12 cm3

PROBABILITY
IMPORTANT NOTES:
Experimental or empirical probability P (E) of an event E is
Equally likely events: Two or more events are said to be equally likely if each one
79
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 favorable 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.
