NUMBER SYSTEMS
Key points and formulae

p
l Rational Numbers : A number is called a rational number, if it can be written in the form ,
q
where p and q are integers and q ≠ 0.
p
l Irrational numbers : A number which can not be expressed in the form (where p and q are
q
integers and q ≠ 0) is called an irrational numbers.
l All the rational and irrational numbers make up the collection of real numbers.
l The decimal expansion of an irrational number is non-terminating non-recurring.
l The decimal expansion of a rational number is either terminating or non-terminating-recurring.
l There is a unique real number corresponding to every point on the number line.

r
l If r is rational and s is irrational, then r+s and r–s are irrational numbers, and rs & are
s
irrational numbers, r ≠ 0.
l For positive real numbers a and b the following identities hold :

a a
i) ab = a b ii) =
b b

iii) ( a+ b )( )
a − b = a −b iv) (a + b )(a − b ) = a 2
−b

( )
2
v) a+ b = a + 2 ab + b

l Rationalising factor : If the product of two irrational numbers is rational then each one is called
the rationalising factor of the other.
1 a −b
e.g. To rationalise the denominator of , we multiply this by , where a and b are
a +b a −b
integers.

l Laws of Exponents : Let a>0, b>0 be real numbers and let m and n be rational numbers. Then,
we have

am
i) a ×a = a
m n m+n ii) n
= a m−n
a

iii) (a )

Therefore, we have n
a = an .
l Let a>0 be a real number. Let m and n be integers such that m and n have no common factors

( a)
m m
other then 1, and n>0. Then, a n = n
= n am .

CHAPTER-2

POLYNOMIALS
Key points and formulae
l Definition : The algebraic expression in which the variables involved have only non-negative
integral exponent is called a ‘Polynomial’.
A polynomial P(x) in one variable x is an algebraic expression in x of the form
P ( x ) = an x n + an −1 x n −1 + an − 2 x n − 2 + ..... + a2 x 2 + a1 x + a0 where a1,a2,.....,an (an≠0) are constants
known as co-efficient of the respective terms a1x, a2x2 ....., anxn of the polynomial. Here a0 is the
constant term.
e.g. (i) 2x3– 4x2 + 5x – 7 is a polynomial in one variable x.
(ii) 4y3 – 7y2 + 3y – 8 is a polynomial of one variable y.
l Degree of a Polynomial : Highest power of variable in a polynomial is called the degree of
polynomial.
l Constant Polynomial : A polynomial of degree zero is called a constant polynomial.
−7 3
e.g. 4, , etc. constant polynomials.
5 4
l Zero Polynomial : The constant polynomial 0 is called zero polynomial. Degree of zero polynomial
is not defined.
l Linear Polynomial : A Polynomial of degree 1 is called a linear polynomial. It is expressed in the
form of ax+b, where a and b are real constants, a ≠ 0 .
e.g. (i) 3 x − 5 is a linear polynomial in x.

7
(ii) y + 4 is a linear polynomial in y.
5
l Quadratic Polynomial : A polynomial of degree 2 is called a quadratic polynomial. It is expressed
in the form of ax2 + bx + c, where a, b, and c are real constants and a ≠ 0.
l Cubic Polynomial : A Polynomial of degree 3 is called a cubic polynomial. It is expressed in the
form of ax3 + bx2 + cx + d, where a, b, c and d are real constants and a ≠ 0.
l Monomial : A polynomial having one non-zero term is called a monomial.
l Binomial : A polynomial of two non-zero term is called a binomial.

13
l Trinomial : A polynomial having three non-zero terms is called a trinomial.
l Value of Polynomial : Value of a polynomial p(x) at x=a is p(a).
l Zero of Polynomial : Zero of a polynomial p(x) is a number a such that p(a)=0.

Note :
(i) ‘0’ may be a zero of a polynomial.
(ii) Every real number is a zero of a zero polynomial.
(iii) A non-zero constant polynomial has no zero.
(iv) Every linear polynomial in one variable has a unique zero.
v) Maximum number of zeroes of a polynomial is equal to its degree.
l Polynomial equation : If p(x) is polynomial then p(x) = 0 is a polynomial equation.
l Remainder Theorem : Let p(x) be any polynomial of degree n ≥ 1 and ‘a’ be any real number,
then if p(x) is divided by the linear polynomial (x–a), the remainder is p(a).
l Factor Theorem : If p(x) is a Polynomial of degree n ≥ 1 and ‘a’ be any real number, then x–a is
a factor of p(x) if p(a) = 0

Note :
(i) p(a) = 0, if x–a is a factor of p(x).
(ii) (x+a) is a factor of polynomial p(x) if p(–a) = 0
(iii) (ax–b) is a factor of polynomial p(x) if p(b/a) = 0
iv) (x–a) (x–b) are factors of polynomial p(x) if p(a) = 0 and p(b) = 0
l Algebraic Identities : An algebraic identity is an algebraic equation that is true for all values of
the variables occuring in it.
l Some useful algebraic identities :
i) (x+y)2 = x2 + 2xy + y2 = (x–y)2 + 4xy

COORDINATE GEOMETRY
Key points and formulae
l To locate the position of an object or point in a plane, we require two mutually perpendicular
lines. The plane is called the Cartesian or coordinate plane and the lines are called the Co-
ordinate axes.
l The Horizontal line is called the x axis and the vertical line is called the y axis.
l The coordinate axes divide the plane into four parts called quadrants.
l The point of intersection of the axes is called the origin.
l The distance of a point from the y axis is called its x - coordinate or abscissa and the distance of
the point from the x-axis is called its y - coordinate or ordinate.
l If the abscissa of a point is x and the ordinate is y, then (x, y) are called the coordinates or ordered
pair of the point.
l The coordinates of a point on the x axis are of the form (x, 0) and that of the point on the y axis
are (0,y).
l The coordinates of the origin are (0,0)
l The coordinates of a point are of the form (x,y) in the first quadrant, (–x,y) in the second quadrant,
(–x, –y) in the third quadrant and (x,–y) in the fourth quadrant.
l If x ≠ y then (x,y) ≠ (y,x) and if (x,y) = (y,x) then x=y.

INTRODUCTION TO EUCLID’S GEOMETRY


Key points and formulae
A) Some definitions in Euclidean Geometry
During Euclid’s period, the notations of points, plane (or surface) and so on were derived
from what was seen around them.
Some of the definitions given as follows :
l A point is that which has no part.
l A line is bredth-less length
l A surface is that which has length and breadth only.
l The edges of a surface are lines.
l A plane surface is one that lies evenly with the straight lines on itself.
B) Euclid’s axioms :
Axioms are the assumptions that are obvious universal truths, but are not proved. These are
used throughout mathematics and are not specially linked to geometry.
Some of Euclid’s axioms are as follows :
l Things that are equal to the same things are equal to one another.
l If equals are added to equals then the wholes are also equal.
l If equals are subtracted from equals then the remainders are equal.
l Things that coincide with one another are equal to one another.
l The whole is greater than the part.
l Things that are double of the same things are equal to one another.
C) Euclid’s postulates :
Postulates are also universal truth that need not to be proved. Euclid used the term
“Postulate” for the assumptions that were specify to geometry.
Postulate 1 : It is possible to draw a straight line from any point to any other point. Euclid has
frequently assumed this postulate without mentioning that there is a unique line joining two
distinct points. The above result can be stated in the form of an axiom as follows :

34
Axiom : Given two distinct point there is a unique line that passes through them.

Postulate 2 : A terminated line can be produced indefinitely.

Note : According to present day terms, the second postulate states that a line segment can be extended
on either side to form a line.

Postulate 3 : It is possible to describe a circle with any centre and radius.

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

Postulate 5 : If a straight line falling on two straight lines forms interior angles that together
measure less than two right angles on the same side of it, then the two straight lines when
produced indefinitely, meet on that side on which the sum of the angles is less than two right
angles. Euclid’s fifth postulate is also called Parallel Postulate.

Note : Two equivalent version of Euclid’s fifth postulate are :

(i) “For every line l and for every point p not lying on l, there exists a unique line m passing through
p and parallel to l”. This is known as Playfair’s Axiom.
(ii) In other words we can say that : “Two distinct intersecting lines can not be parallel to the same
line.”
