(iii) A function f : X → Y is said to be one-one and onto (or bijective), if f is both one-
one and onto.
1.1.4 Composition of Functions
(i) Let f : A → B and g : B → C be two functions. Then, the composition of f and
g, denoted by g o f, is defined as the function g o f : A → C given by
g o f (x) = g (f (x)), ∀ x ∈ A.
(ii) If f : A → B and g : B → C are one-one, then g o f : A → C is also one-one
(iii) If f : A → B and g : B → C are onto, then g o f : A → C is also onto.
However, converse of above stated results (ii) and (iii) need not be true. Moreover,
we have the following results in this direction.
(iv) Let f : A → B and g : B → C be the given functions such that g o f is one-one.
Then f is one-one.
(v) Let f : A → B and g : B → C be the given functions such that g o f is onto. Then
g is onto.
1.1.5 Invertible Function
(i) A function f : X → Y is defined to be invertible, if there exists a function
g : Y → X such that g o f = Ix and f o g = IY. The function g is called the inverse
of f and is denoted by f –1.
(ii) A function f : X → Y is invertible if and only if f is a bijective function.
(iii) If f : X → Y, g : Y → Z and h : Z → S are functions, then
h o (g o f) = (h o g) o f.
(iv) Let f : X → Y and g : Y → Z be two invertible functions. Then g o f is also
invertible with (g o f)–1 = f –1 o g–1.

Example 7 Is the binary operation * defined on Z (set of integer) by
m * n = m – n + mn ∀ m, n ∈ Z commutative?
Solution No. Since for 1, 2 ∈ Z, 1 * 2 = 1 – 2 + 1.2 = 1 while 2 * 1 = 2 – 1 + 2.1 = 3
so that 1 * 2 ≠ 2 * 1.

⇒ x1 x22 + x1 = x2 x12 + x2
⇒ x1 x2 (x2 – x1) = x2 – x1
⇒ x1 = x2 or x1 x2 = 1
We note that there are point, x1 and x2 with x1 ≠ x2 and f (x1) = f (x2), for instance, if
1 2 2 1
we take x1 = 2 and x2 = , then we have f (x1) = and f (x2) = but 2 ≠ . Hence

f is not one-one. Also, f is not onto for if so then for 1∈R ∃ x ∈ R such that f (x) = 1

⎧ 2 x if x ≥ 0
f (x) = ⎨
⎩ 0 if x < 0
⎧ 0 if x ≥ 0
g (x) = ⎨
⎩ –2 x if x < 0
Therefore, g o f gets defined as :
For x ≥ 0, (g o f ) (x) = g (f (x) = g (2x) = 0
and for x < 0, (g o f ) (x) = g (f (x) = g (0) = 0.
Consequently, we have (g o f ) (x) = 0, ∀ x ∈ R.
Similarly, f o g gets defined as:
For x ≥ 0, (f o g ) (x) = f (g (x) = f (0) = 0,
and for x < 0, (f o g ) (x) = f (g(x)) = f (–2 x) = – 4x.
⎧ 0, x > 0
i.e. ( f o g ) ( x) = ⎨
⎩ −4 x , x < 0
Example 15 Let R be the set of real numbers and f : R → R be the function defined
by f (x) = 4x + 5. Show that f is invertible and find f –1.

Example 16 Let * be a binary operation defined on Q. Find which of the following
binary operations are associative
(i) a * b = a – b for a, b ∈ Q.
ab
(ii) a * b = for a, b ∈ Q.

(iii) a * b = a – b + ab for a, b ∈ Q.
(iv) a * b = ab2 for a, b ∈ Q.
Solution
(i) * is not associative for if we take a = 1, b = 2 and c = 3, then
(a * b) * c = (1 * 2) * 3 = (1 – 2) * 3 = – 1 – 3 = – 4 and
a * (b * c) = 1 * (2 * 3) = 1 * (2 – 3) = 1 – ( – 1) = 2.

Matrices
3.1 Overview
3.1.1 A matrix is an ordered rectangular array of numbers (or functions). For example,
x 4 3
A= 4 3 x
3 x 4
The numbers (or functions) are called the elements or the entries of the matrix.
The horizontal lines of elements are said to constitute rows of the matrix and the
vertical lines of elements are said to constitute columns of the matrix.
3.1.2 Order of a Matrix
A matrix having m rows and n columns is called a matrix of order m × n or simply
m × n matrix (read as an m by n matrix).
In the above example, we have A as a matrix of order 3 × 3 i.e.,
3 × 3 matrix.
In general, an m × n matrix has the following rectangular array :
The element, aij is an element lying in the ith row and jth column and is known as the
(i, j)th element of A. The number of elements in an m × n matrix will be equal to mn.
3.1.3 Types of Matrices
(i) A matrix is said to be a row matrix if it has only one row.

3.1.10 Invertible Matrices
(i) If A is a square matrix of order m × m, and if there exists another square
matrix B of the same order m × m, such that AB = BA = Im, then, A is said
to be invertible matrix and B is called the inverse matrix of A and it is
denoted by A–1.
Note :
1. A rectangular matrix does not possess its inverse, since for the products
BA and AB to be defined and to be equal, it is necessary that matrices A
and B should be square matrices of the same order.
2. If B is the inverse of A, then A is also the inverse of B.
(ii) Theorem 3 (Uniqueness of inverse) Inverse of a square matrix, if it
exists, is unique.
(iii) Theorem 4 : If A and B are invertible matrices of same order, then
(AB)–1 = B–1A–1.
3.1.11 Inverse of a Matrix using Elementary Row or Column Operations
To find A–1 using elementary row operations, write A = IA and apply a sequence of
row operations on (A = IA) till we get, I = BA. The matrix B will be the inverse of A.
Similarly, if we wish to find A–1 using column operations, then, write A = AI and apply a
sequence of column operations on A = AI till we get, I = AB.
Note : In case, after applying one or more elementary row (or column) operations on
A = IA (or A = AI), if we obtain all zeros in one or more rows of the matrix A on L.H.S.,
then A–1 does not exist.

4.1 Overview
To every square matrix A = [aij] of order n, we can associate a number (real or complex)
called determinant of the matrix A, written as det A, where aij is the (i, j)th element of A.
a b
If A , then determinant of A, denoted by |A| (or det A), is given by
c d
a b
|A| = = ad – bc.
c d
Remarks
(i) Only square matrices have determinants.
⎡a b ⎤
Let A = [aij] = ⎢ ⎥ be a matrix of order 2. Then the determinant of A is defined
⎣c d ⎦
as: det (A) = |A| = ad – bc.
4.1.3 Determinant of a matrix of order three
The determinant of a matrix of order three can be determined by expressing it in terms
of second order determinants which is known as expansion of a determinant along a
row (or a column). There are six ways of expanding a determinant of order 3
corresponding to each of three rows (R1, R2 and R3) and three columns (C1, C2 and
C3) and each way gives the same value.
66 MATHEMATICS
= a11(a22 a33 – a23 a32) – a21 (a12 a33 – a13 a32) + a31 (a12 a23 – a13 a22)
Remark In general, if A = kB, where A and B are square matrices of order n, then
|A| = kn |B|, n = 1, 2, 3.
4.1.4 Properties of Determinants
For any square matrix A, |A| satisfies the following properties.
(ii) If we interchange any two rows (or columns), then sign of the determinant
changes.
(iii) If any two rows or any two columns in a determinant are identical (or
proportional), then the value of the determinant is zero.
(iv) Multiplying a determinant by k means multiplying the elements of only one row
(or one column) by k.
x1 y1 1
1
x2 y2 1
2 .
x3 y3 1
(iv) If elements of a row (or column) are multiplied with co-factors of elements of
any other row (or column), then their sum is zero. For example,
a11 A21 + a12 A22 + a13 A23 = 0.
4.1.7 Adjoint and inverse of a matrix
(i) The adjoint of a square matrix A = [aij]n×n is defined as the transpose of the matrix
68 MATHEMATICS
[aij]n×n, where Aij is the co-factor of the element aij. It is denoted by adj A.

Example 6 Prove that (A–1)′ = (A′)–1, where A is an invertible matrix.
Solution Since A is an invertible matrix, so it is non-singular.
We know that |A| = |A′|. But |A| ≠ 0. So |A′| ≠ 0 i.e. A′ is invertible matrix.
Now we know that AA–1 = A–1 A = I.
Taking transpose on both sides, we get (A–1)′ A′ = A′ (A–1)′ = (I)′ = I
Hence (A–1)′ is inverse of A′, i.e., (A′)–1 = (A–1)′

5.1.15 Rolle’s Theorem
Let f : [a, b] R be continuous on [a, b] and differentiable on (a, b), such that f (a)
= f (b), where a and b are some real numbers. Then there exists at least one point c in
(a, b) such that f ′ (c) = 0.
CONTINUITY AND DIFFERENTIABILITY 91
Geometrically Rolle’s theorem ensures that there is at least one point on the curve
y = f (x) at which tangent is parallel to x-axis (abscissa of the point lying in (a, b)).

Geometrically, Mean Value Theorem states that there exists at least one point c in
(a, b) such that the tangent at the point (c, f (c)) is parallel to the secant joining the
points (a, f (a) and (b, f (b)).

Thus, f is continuous at x = 0 if k = 1.
Example 2 Discuss the continuity of the function f(x) = sin x . cos x.

Now Rf ′ (0) = lim+ = lim+ = lim− h = 0

Since the left hand derivative and right hand derivative both are equal, hence f is

Thus if ‘s’ represents the distance and ‘t’ the time, then represents the rate of

(i) local maxima, if there exists an h > 0 , such that f (c) > f (x), for all x in
(c – h, c + h).
(ii) local minima if there exists an h > 0 such that f (c) < f (x), for all x in
(c – h, c + h).
A function f defined over [a, b] is said to have maximum (or absolute maximum) at
x = c, c ∈ [a, b], if f (x) ≤ f (c) for all x ∈ [a, b].
Similarly, a function f (x) defined over [a, b] is said to have a minimum [or absolute
minimum] at x = d, if f (x) ≥ f (d) for all x ∈ [a, b].
(i) x = c is a point of local maxima if f ′(c) = 0 and f ″(c) < 0. In this case
f (c) is then the local maximum value.
(ii) x = c is a point of local minima if f ′ (c) = 0 and f ″(c) > 0. In this case
f (c) is the local minimum value.
(iii) The test fails if f ′(c) = 0 and f ″ (c) = 0. In this case, we go back to
first derivative test.
6.1.8 Working rule for finding absolute maxima and or absolute minima :
Step 2 : At all these points and at the end points of the interval, calculate the
values of f.
Step 3 : Identify the maximum and minimum values of f out of the values
calculated in step 2. The maximum value will be the absolute maximum
value of f and the minimum value will be the absolute minimum
value of f.

INTEGRALS
7.1 Overview
d
7.1.1 Let F (x) = f (x). Then, we write ∫ f ( x ) dx = F (x) + C. These integrals are
dx
called indefinite integrals or general integrals, C is called a constant of integration. All
these integrals differ by a constant.
7.1.2 If two functions differ by a constant, they have the same derivative.
(i) The process of differentiation and integration are inverse of each other,
d
dx ∫ ∫ f ' ( x ) dx = f ( x ) + C ,
i.e., f ( x ) dx = f ( x ) and where C is any
arbitrary constant.
(ii) Two indefinite integrals with the same derivative lead to the same family of
curves and so they are equivalent. So if f and g are two functions such that
d d
dx ∫ f ( x ) dx =
dx ∫
g ( x) dx , then ∫ f ( x ) dx and ∫ g ( x ) dx are equivalent.
(iii) The integral of the sum of two functions equals the sum of the integrals of
the functions i.e., ∫ ( f ( x ) + g ( x ) ) dx = ∫ f ( x ) dx + ∫ g ( x ) dx .
144 MATHEMATICS
(iv) A constant factor may be written either before or after the integral sign, i.e.,
∫ (k f ( x ) + k2 f 2 ( x ) + ...+, kn f n ( x ) ) dx = k1 ∫ f1 ( x ) dx + k2 ∫ f 2 ( x ) dx + ... + kn ∫ f n ( x ) dx
1 1
There are some methods or techniques for finding the integral where we can not
directly select the antiderivative of function f by reducing them into standard forms.
Some of these methods are based on
1. Integration by substitution
2. Integration using partial fractions
3. Integration by parts.
The definite integral is denoted by ∫ f ( x ) dx , where a is the lower limit of the integral
a
and b is the upper limit of the integral. The definite integral is evaluated in the following
two ways:
b
(ii) ∫ f ( x ) dx = F(b) – F(a), if F is an antiderivative of f (x).

DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS
9.1 Overview
(i) An equation involving derivative (derivatives) of the dependent variable with
respect to independent variable (variables) is called a differential equation.
(ii) A differential equation involving derivatives of the dependent variable with
respect to only one independent variable is called an ordinary differential
equation and a differential equation involving derivatives with respect to more
than one independent variables is called a partial differential equation.
(iii) Order of a differential equation is the order of the highest order derivative
occurring in the differential equation.
(iv) Degree of a differential equation is defined if it is a polynomial equation in its
derivatives.
(v) Degree (when defined) of a differential equation is the highest power (positive
integer only) of the highest order derivative in it.
(vi) A relation between involved variables, which satisfy the given differential
equation is called its solution. The solution which contains as many arbitrary
constants as the order of the differential equation is called the general solution
and the solution free from arbitrary constants is called particular solution.
(vii) To form a differential equation from a given function, we differentiate the
function successively as many times as the number of arbitrary constants in the
given function and then eliminate the arbitrary constants.
(viii) The order of a differential equation representing a family of curves is same as
the number of arbitrary constants present in the equation corresponding to the
family of curves.
(ix) ‘Variable separable method’ is used to solve such an equation in which variables
can be separated completely, i.e., terms containing x should remain with dx and
terms containing y should remain with dy.
180 MATHEMATICS

(xi) A differential equation which can be expressed in the form = F (x, y) or
dx
dx
= G (x, y), where F (x, y) and G (x, y) are homogeneous functions of degree
dy
zero, is called a homogeneous differential equation.
dy
(xii) To solve a homogeneous differential equation of the type = F (x, y), we make
dx
substitution y = vx and to solve a homogeneous differential equation of the type
dx
= G (x, y), we make substitution x = vy.
dy
dy
(xiii) A differential equation of the form + Py = Q, where P and Q are constants or
dx
functions of x only is known as a first order linear differential equation. Solution
of such a differential equation is given by y (I.F.) = ∫ ( Q × I.F.) dx + C, where
I.F. (Integrating Factor) = e ∫ .
Pdx
dx
(xiv) Another form of first order linear differential equation is + P1x = Q1, where
dy
P1 and Q1 are constants or functions of y only. Solution of such a differential
equation is given by x (I.F.) = ∫ ( Q1 × I.F.) dy + C, where I.F. = e∫ P dy .

Example 10 Find the angle between the lines whose direction cosines are given by

Solution Eliminating m from the given two equations, we get

⇒ (n + l) (2n + l) = 0
⇒ either n = – l or l = – 2n
Now if l = – n, then m = – 2n

Thus the direction ratios of two lines are proportional to – n, –2n, n and –2n, n, n,

Thus, the co-ordinate of L are (2λ, – (2λ + 1), (3 – 4λ),
so that the direction ratios of the line AL are (1 – 2λ), 8 + (2λ + 1), 4 – (3 – 4λ), i.e.

If the coordinates of L are (λ, 2λ + 1, 3λ + 2), then the direction ratios of PL are
λ – 1, 2λ – 5, 3λ – 1.
But the direction ratios of given line which is perpendicular to PL are 1, 2, 3. Therefore,
(λ – 1) 1 + (2λ – 5) 2 + (3λ – 1) 3 = 0, which gives λ = 1. Hence coordinates of L are
(1, 3, 5).
Let Q (x1, y1, z1) be the image of P (1, 6, 3) in the given line. Then L is the mid-point

Since Q lies on the line PQ, the position vector of Q can be expressed as

LINEAR PROGRAMMING
12.1 Overview
12.1.1 An Optimisation Problem A problem which seeks to maximise or minimise a
function is called an optimisation problem. An optimisation problem may
involve maximisation of profit, production etc or minimisation of cost, from available
resources etc.
12.1.10 Theorem 1 Let R be the feasible region (convex polygon) for an LPP and let
Z = ax + by be the objective function. When Z has an optimal value (maximum or
minimum), where x and y are subject to constraints described by linear inequalities,
this optimal value must occur at a corner point (vertex) of the feasible region.
Theorem 2 Let R be the feasible region for a LPP and let Z = ax + by be the objective
function. If R is bounded, then the objective function Z has both a maximum and a
minimum value on R and each of these occur at a corner point of R.
If the feasible region R is unbounded, then a maximum or a minimum value
of the objective function may or may not exist. However, if it exits, it must occur at a
corner point of R.
12.1.11 Corner point method for solving a LPP
The method comprises of the following steps :
(1) Find the feasible region of the LPP and determine its corner points (vertices)
either by inspection or by solving the two equations of the lines intersecting at
that point.
(2) Evaluate the objective function Z = ax + by at each corner point.
Let M and m, respectively denote the largest and the smallest values of Z.
(3) (i) When the feasible region is bounded, M and m are, respectively, the
maximum and minimum values of Z.
(ii) In case, the feasible region is unbounded.
(a) M is the maximum value of Z, if the open half plane determined by
ax + by > M has no point in common with the feasible region. Otherwise, Z has
no maximum value.
(b) Similarly, m is the minimum of Z, if the open half plane determined by
ax + by < m has no point in common with the feasible region. Otherwise, Z has
no minimum value.
12.1.12 Multiple optimal points If two corner points of the feasible region are optimal
solutions of the same type, i.e., both produce the same maximum or minimum, then
any point on the line segment joining these two points is also an optimal solution of
the same type.
Solution The feasible region is bounded. Therefore, maximum of Z must occur at the
corner point of the feasible region (Fig. 12.1).
Fig.12.1
Let us graph 3x + 2y < 13. We see that the open half plane determined by 3x + 2y < 13
and R do not have a common point. So, the smallest value 13 is the minimum value
of Z.
Example 3 Solve the following LPP graphically:
Maximise Z = 2x + 3y,
subject to x + y ≤ 4, x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0
Solution The shaded region (OAB) in the Fig. 12.3 is the feasible region determined
by the system of constraints x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0 and x + y ≤ 4.
The feasible region OAB is bounded, so, maximum value will occur at a corner point
of the feasible region.
Corner Points are O(0, 0), A (4, 0) and B (0, 4).
Evaluate Z at each of these corner point.
Corner Point Value of Z
0, (0, 0) 2 (0) + 3 (0) = 0
A (4, 0) 2 (4) + 3 (0) = 8
B (0, 4) 2 (0) + 3 (4) = 12 ← Maximum
LINEAR PROGRAMMING 245
Since the feasible region is bounded, therefore maximum of Z must occur at the corner
point of OBC.
LINEAR PROGRAMMING 247
Thus, maximum Z is 172800 at the point (180, 120), i.e., the company should produce
180 black and white television sets and 120 coloured television sets to get maximum
profit.
Example 6 Minimise Z = 3x + 5y subject to the constraints :
x + 2 y ≥10
x+ y≥ 6
3x + y ≥ 8
x, y ≥ 0
B (1, 5) 28
C (2, 4) 26 ← smallest
D (10, 0) 30
248 MATHEMATICS
Let us draw the graph of 3x + 5y < 26 as shown in Fig. 12.5 by dotted line.
We see that the open half plane determined by 3x + 5y < 26 and R do not have a point
in common. Thus, 26 is the minimum value of Z.

If E and F are two events associated with the same sample space of a random
experiment, then the conditional probability of the event E under the condition that the
event F has occurred, written as P (E | F), is given by
P(E ∩ F)
P(E | F) = , P(F) ≠ 0
P(F)
Let E and F be events associated with the sample space S of an experiment. Then:
(i) P (S | F) = P (F | F) = 1
(ii) P [(A ∪ B) | F] = P (A | F) + P (B | F) – P [(A ∩ B | F)],
where A and B are any two events associated with S.
(iii) P (E′ | F) = 1 – P (E | F)
Let E and F be two events associated with a sample space of an experiment. Then
P (E ∩ F) = P (E) P (F | E), P (E) ≠ 0
= P (F) P (E | F), P (F) ≠ 0
If E, F and G are three events associated with a sample space, then
P (E ∩ F ∩ G) = P (E) P (F | E) P (G | E ∩ F)
PROBABILITY 259
Let E and F be two events associated with a sample space S. If the probability of
occurrence of one of them is not affected by the occurrence of the other, then we say
that the two events are independent. Thus, two events E and F will be independent, if
(a) P (F | E) = P (F), provided P (E) ≠ 0
(b) P (E | F) = P (E), provided P (F) ≠ 0
Using the multiplication theorem on probability, we have
(c) P (E ∩ F) = P (E) P (F)
Three events A, B and C are said to be mutually independent if all the following
conditions hold:
P (A ∩ B) = P (A) P (B)
P (A ∩ C) = P (A) P (C)
P (B ∩ C) = P (B) P (C)
and P (A ∩ B ∩ C) = P (A) P (B) P (C)

(iii) Each trial has exactly two outcomes: success or failure
(iv) The probability of success (or failure) remains the same in each trial.

R is reflexive.
(ii) a R b ⇒ a – b is divisible by n, then b – a, is divisible by n, so b R a.
Hence R is symmetric. 1
(iii) Let a R b and b R c, for a,b,c, ∈ Z. Then a – b = n p, b – c = n q,
for some p, q ∈ Z
Therefore, a – c = n (p + q) and so a R c. 1
