Set

Set
A set is a well-defined collection of objects.

Representation of Sets
There are two methods of representing a set

 Roster or Tabular form In the roster form, we list all the members of the set within braces { } and separate by commas.
 Set-builder form In the set-builder form, we list the property or properties satisfied by all the elements of the sets.

Types of Sets – Class 11 Maths Notes

 Empty Sets: A set which does not contain any element is called an empty set or the void set or null set and it is denoted by {} or
Φ.
 Singleton Set: A set consists of a single element, is called a singleton set.
 Finite and infinite Set: A set which consists of a finite number of elements, is called a finite set, otherwise the set is called an
infinite set.
 Equal Sets: Two sets A and 6 are said to be equal, if every element of A is also an element of B or vice-versa, i.e. two equal sets
will have exactly the same element.
 Equivalent Sets: Two finite sets A and 6 are said to be equal if the number of elements are equal, i.e. n(A) = n(B)

Subset – Class 11 Maths Notes

A set A is said to be a subset of set B if every element of set A belongs to set B. In symbols, we write
A ⊆ B, if x ∈ A ⇒ x ∈ B

Note:

 Every set is o subset of itself.

 The empty set is a subset of every set.
 The total number of subsets of a finite set containing n elements is 2n.

Intervals as Subsets of R
Let a and b be two given real numbers such that a < b, then

 an open interval denoted by (a, b) is the set of real numbers {x : a < x < b}.
 a closed interval denoted by [a, b] is the set of real numbers {x : a ≤ x ≤ b}.
 intervals closed at one end and open at the others are known as semi-open or semi-closed interval and denoted by (a, b] is the
set of real numbers {x : a < x ≤ b} or [a, b) is the set of real numbers {x : a ≤ x < b}.

Power Set
The collection of all subsets of a set A is called the power set of A. It is denoted by P(A). If the number of elements in A i.e. n(A) = n,
then the number of elements in P(A) = 2n.

Universal Set
A set that contains all sets in a given context is called the universal set.

Venn-Diagrams
Venn diagrams are the diagrams, which represent the relationship between sets. In Venn-diagrams the universal set U is represented
by point within a rectangle and its subsets are represented by points in closed curves (usually circles) within the rectangle.

Operations of Sets
Union of sets: The union of two sets A and B, denoted by A ∪ B is the set of all those elements which are either in A or in B or in both A
and B. Thus, A ∪ B = {x : x ∈ A or x ∈ B}.

Intersection of sets: The intersection of two sets A and B, denoted by A ∩ B, is the set of all elements which are common to both A
and B.
Thus, A ∩ B = {x : x ∈ A and x ∈ B}
Disjoint sets: Two sets Aand Bare said to be disjoint, if A ∩ B = Φ.

Intersecting or Overlapping sets: Two sets A and B are said to be intersecting or overlapping if A ∩ B ≠ Φ

Difference of sets: For any sets A and B, their difference (A – B) is defined as a set of elements, which belong to A but not to B.
Thus, A – B = {x : x ∈ A and x ∉ B}
also, B – A = {x : x ∈ B and x ∉ A}

Complement of a set: Let U be the universal set and A is a subset of U. Then, the complement of A is the set of all elements of U
which are not the element of A.
Thus, A’ = U – A = {x : x ∈ U and x ∉ A}

Some Properties of Complement of Sets

 A ∪ A’ = ∪
 A ∩ A’ = Φ
 ∪’ = Φ
 Φ’ = ∪
 (A’)’ = A

Symmetric difference of two sets: For any set A and B, their symmetric difference (A – B) ∪ (B – A)
(A – B) ∪ (B – A) defined as set of elements which do not belong to both A and B.
It is denoted by A ∆ B.
Thus, A ∆ B = (A – B) ∪ (B – A) = {x : x ∉ A ∩ B}.

Laws of Algebra of Sets – Class 11 Maths Notes

Idempotent Laws: For any set A, we have

 A∪A=A
 A∩A=A

Identity Laws: For any set A, we have

 A∪Φ=A
 A∩U=A

Commutative Laws: For any two sets A and B, we have

 A∪B=B∪A
 A∩B=B∩A

Associative Laws: For any three sets A, B and C, we have

 A ∪ (B ∪ C) = (A ∪ B) ∪ C
 A ∩ (B ∩ C) = (A ∩ B) ∩ C

Distributive Laws: If A, B and Care three sets, then

 A ∪ (B ∩ C) = (A ∪ B) ∩ (A ∪ C)
 A ∩ (B ∪ C) = (A ∩ B) ∪ (A ∩ C)

De-Morgan’s Laws: If A and B are two sets, then

 (A ∪ B)’ = A’ ∩ B’
 (A ∩ B)’ = A’ ∪ B’
Formulae to Solve Practical Problems on Union and Intersection of Two Sets
Let A, B and C be any three finite sets, then

 n(A ∪ B) = n(A) + n (B) – n(A ∩ B)

 If (A ∩ B) = Φ, then n (A ∪ B) = n(A) + n(B)
 n(A – B) = n(A) – n(A ∩ B)
 n(A ∪ B ∪ C) = n(A) + n(B) + n(C) – n(A ∩ B) – n(B ∩ C) – n(A ∩ C) + n(A ∩ B ∩ C)

Relation and Function

Ordered Pair
An ordered pair consists of two objects or elements in a given fixed order.

Equality of Two Ordered Pairs

Two ordered pairs (a, b) and (c, d) are equal if a = c and b = d.

Cartesian Product of Two Sets

For any two non-empty sets A and B, the set of all ordered pairs (a, b) where a ∈ A and b ∈ B is called the cartesian product of sets A
and B and is denoted by A × B.
Thus, A × B = {(a, b) : a ∈ A and b ∈ B}
If A = Φ or B = Φ, then we define A × B = Φ

Note:

 A×B≠B×A
 If n(A) = m and n(B) = n, then n(A × B) = mn and n(B × A) = mn
 If atieast one of A and B is infinite, then (A × B) is infinite and (B × A) is infinite.

Relations
A relation R from a non-empty set A to a non-empty set B is a subset of the cartesian product set A × B. The subset is derived by
describing a relationship between the first element and the second element of the ordered pairs in A × B.
The set of all first elements in a relation R is called the domain of the relation B, and the set of all second elements called images is
called the range of R.

Note:

 A relation may be represented either by the Roster form or by the set of builder form, or by an arrow diagram which is a visual
representation of relation.
 If n(A) = m, n(B) = n, then n(A × B) = mn and the total number of possible relations from set A to set B = 2 mn

Inverse of Relation
For any two non-empty sets A and B. Let R be a relation from a set A to a set B. Then, the inverse of relation R, denoted by R -1 is a
relation from B to A and it is defined by
R-1 ={(b, a) : (a, b) ∈ R}
Domain of R = Range of R-1 and
Range of R = Domain of R-1.

Functions
A relation f from a set A to set B is said to be function, if every element of set A has one and only image in set B.
In other words, a function f is a relation such that no two pairs in the relation have the first element.

Real-Valued Function
A function f : A → B is called a real-valued function if B is a subset of R (set of all real numbers). If A and B both are subsets of R, then f
is called a real function.

Some Specific Types of Functions

Identity function: The function f : R → R defined by f(x) = x for each x ∈ R is called identity function.
Domain of f = R; Range of f = R

Constant function: The function f : R → R defined by f(x) = C, x ∈ R, where C is a constant ∈ R, is called a constant function.
Domain of f = R; Range of f = C
Polynomial function: A real valued function f : R → R defined by f(x) = a0 + a1x + a2x2+…+ anxn, where n ∈ N and a0, a1, a2,…….. an ∈ R
for each x ∈ R, is called polynomial function.

Rational function: These are the real function of type f(x)g(x), where f(x)and g(x)are polynomial functions of x defined in a domain,
where g(x) ≠ 0.
The modulus function: The real function f : R → R defined by f(x) = |x|
or

for all values of x ∈ R is called the modulus function.

Domaim of f = R
Range of f = R+ U {0} i.e. [0, ∞)

Signum function: The real function f : R → R defined

by f(x) = |x|x, x ≠ 0 and 0, if x = 0
or

is called the signum function.

Domain of f = R; Range of f = {-1, 0, 1}

Greatest integer function: The real function f : R → R defined by f (x) = {x}, x ∈ R assumes that the values of the greatest integer less
than or equal to x, is called the greatest integer function.
Domain of f = R; Range of f = Integer

Fractional part function: The real function f : R → R defined by f(x) = {x}, x ∈ R is called the fractional part function.
f(x) = {x} = x – [x] for all x ∈R
Domain of f = R; Range of f = [0, 1)

Algebra of Real Functions

Addition of two real functions: Let f : X → R and g : X → R be any two real functions, where X ∈ R. Then, we define (f + g) : X → R by
{f + g) (x) = f(x) + g(x), for all x ∈ X.

Subtraction of a real function from another: Let f : X → R and g : X → R be any two real functions, where X ⊆ R. Then, we define (f
– g) : X → R by (f – g) (x) = f (x) – g(x), for all x ∈ X.

Multiplication by a scalar: Let f : X → R be a real function and K be any scalar belonging to R. Then, the product of Kf is function from
X to R defined by (Kf)(x) = Kf(x) for all x ∈ X.

Multiplication of two real functions: Let f : X → R and g : X → R be any two real functions, wher
where X ⊆ R. Then, product of these two
functions i.e. f.g : X → R is defined by (fg) x = f(x) . g(x) ∀ x ∈ X.

Quotient of two real functions: Let f and g be two real functions defined from X → R. The quotient of f by g denoted by fg is a function
defined from X → R as

Trigonometric Functions
Angle
Angle is a measure of rotation of a given ray about its initial point. The original ray is called the initial side and the final
fi position of ray
after rotation is called terminal side of the angle. The point of rotation is called vertex. If the direction of rotation is anti-clockwise,
anti the
angle is said to be positive and if the direction of rotation is clockwise, then the angle is negative.
Measuring Angles
There are two systems of measuring angles
Sexagesimal system (degree measure): If a rotation from the initial side to terminal side is (1360)th of a revolution, the angle is said to
have a measure of one degree, written as 1°.
One sixtieth of a degree is called a minute, written as 1′ and one-sixtieth of a minute is called a second, written as 1″
Thus, 1° = 60′ and 1′ = 60″
Circular system (radian measure): A radian is an angle subtended at the centre of a circle by an arc, whose length is equal to the
radius of the circle. We denote 1 radian by 1°.

Relation Between Radian and Degree

We know that a complete circle subtends at its centre an angle whose measure is 2π radians as well as 360°.
2π radian = 360°.
Hence, π radian = 180°
or 1 radian = 57° 16′ 21″ (approx)
1 degree = 0.01746 radian

Six Fundamental Trigonometric Identities

 sinx = 1cosecx
 cos x = 1secx
 tan x = 1cotx
 sin2 x + cos2 x = 1
 1 + tan2x = sec2 x
 1 + cot2 x = cosec2 x

Trigonometric Functions – Class 11 Maths Notes

Trigonometric ratios are defined for acute angles as the ratio of the sides of a right angled triangle. The extension of trigonometric ratios
to any angle in terms of radian measure (real number) are called trigonometric function. The signs of trigonometric function in different
quadrants have been given in following table.

Allied or Related Angles

The angles nπ2±θ are called allied or related angle and θ ± n × (2π) π) are called coterminal angles. For general reduction, we have
following rules, the value of trigonometric function for (nπ2±θ) is numerically equal to
  the value of the same function, if n is an even integer with the algebraic sign of the function as per the quadrant in which angle
lies.
 the corresponding co-function
function of θ, if n is an odd integer with the algebraic sign of the fun
function
ction for the quadrant in which it lies,
here sine and cosine, tan and cot, sec and cosec are cofunctions of each other.

Functions of Negative Angles

For any acute angle of θ.
We have,

 sin(-θ) = – sinθ
 cos (-θ) = cosθ
 tan (-θ) = – tanθ
 cot (-θ) = – cotθ
 sec (-θ) = secθ
 cosec (-θ) = – cosecθ

Some Formulae Regarding Compound Angles

An angle made up of the sum or difference of two or more angles is called compound angles. The basic results in direction are called
trigonometric identities as given below:
(i) sin (x + y) = sin x cos y + cos x sin y
(ii) sin (x – y) = sin x cos y – cos x sin y
(iii) cos (x + y) = cos x cos y – sin x sin y
(iv) cos (x – y) = cos x cos y + sin x sin y

(ix) sin(x + y) sin (x – y) = sin2 x – sin2 y = cos2 y – cos2 x

(x) cos (x + y) cos (x – y) = cos2 x – sin2 y = cos2 y – sin2 x

Transformation Formulae
 2 sin x cos y = sin (x + y) + sin (x – y)
 2 cos x sin y = sin (x + y) – sin (x – y)
 2 cos x cos y = cos (x + y) + cos (x – y)
 2 sin x sin y = cos (x – y) – cos (x + y)
 sin x + sin y = 2 sin(x+y2) cos(x−y2)
 sin x – sin y = 2 cos(x+y2) sin(x−y2)
 cos x + cos y = 2 cos(x+y2) cos(x−y2)
 cos x – cos y = -2 sin(x+y2) sin(x−y2)
Trigonometric Ratios of Multiple Angles

 sin x sin (60° – x) sin (60° + x) = 14 sin 3x
 cos x cos (60° – x) cos (60° + x) = 14 cos 3x
 tan x tan (60° – x) tan (60° + x) = tan 3x

Trigonometric Equations

A solution of a trigonometric equation is the value of the unknown angle that satisfies the equation
equation.
A trigonometric
tric equation may have an infinite number of solutions.

Principal Solution
The solutions of a trigonometric equation for which 0 ≤ x ≤ 2π are called principal solutions.

General Solutions
A solution of a trigonometric equation, involving ‘n’ which gives al
alll solution of a trigonometric equation is called the general solutions.

by small letters a, b and c, respectively.

Principle of Mathematical Induction

Principle of Mathematical Induction
Mathematical induction is one of the techniques, which can be used to prove a variety of mathematical statements which are formulated
in terms of n, where n is a positive integer.

Let P(n) be given statement involving the natural number n such that
(i) The statement is true for n = 1, i.e. P(1) is true.
(ii) If the statement is true for n = k (where k is a particular but arbitrary natural number), then the statement is also true for n = k + 1 i.e.
truth of P(k) implies that the truth of P(k + 1). Then, P(n) is true for all natural numbers n.

Complex Numbers and Quadratic Equations

Imaginary Numbers
The square root of a negative real number is called an imaginary number, e.g. √-2, √-5 etc.
The quantity √-1 is an imaginary unit and it is denoted by ‘i’ called Iota.

Integral Power of IOTA (i)

i = √-1, i2 = -1, i3 = -i, i4 = 1
So, i4n+1 = i, i4n+2 = -1, i4n+3 = -i, i4n = 1

Note:

 For any two real numbers a and b, the result √a × √b : √ab is true only, when atleast one of the given numbers i.e. either zero or
positive.
√-a × √-b ≠ √ab
So, i2 = √-1 × √-1 ≠ 1
 ‘i’ is neither positive, zero nor negative.
 in + in+1 + in+2 + in+3 = 0

Complex Number
A number of the form x + iy, where x and y are real numbers, is called a complex number, x is called real part and y is called imaginary
part of the complex number i.e. Re(Z) = x and Im(Z) = y.

Purely Real and Purely Imaginary Complex Number

A complex number Z = x + iy is a purely real if its imaginary part is 0, i.e. Im(z) = 0 and purely imaginary if its real part is 0 i.e. Re (z) =
0.

Equality of Complex Number

Two complex numbers z1 = x1 + iy1 and z2 = x2 + iy2 are equal, iff x1 = x2 and y1 = y2 i.e. Re(z1) = Re(z2) and Im(z1) = Im(z2)
Note: Order relation “greater than’’ and “less than” are not defined for complex number.

Algebra of Complex Numbers

Addition of complex numbers
Let z1 = x1 + iy1 and z2 = x2 + iy2 be any two complex numbers, then their sum defined as
z1 + z2 = (x1 + iy1) + (x2 + iy2) = (x1 + x2) + i (y1 + y2)

Properties of Addition

 Commutative: z1 + z2 = z2 + z1
 Associative: z1 + (z2 + z3) = (z1 + z2) + z3
  Additive identity z + 0 = z = 0 + z
Here, 0 is additive identity.

Subtraction of complex numbers

Let z1 = (x1 + iy1) and z2 = (x2 + iy2) be any two complex numbers, then their difference is defined a
as
z1 – z2 = (x1 + iy1) – (x2 + iy2) = (x1 – x2) + i(y1 – y2)

Multiplication of complex numbers

Let z1 = (x1 + iy1) and z2 = (x2 + iy2) be any two complex numbers, then their multiplication is defined a
as
z1z2 = (x1 + iy1) (x2 + iy2) = (x1x2 – y1y2) + i (x1y2 + x2y1)

Properties of Multiplication

 Commutative: z1z2 = z2z1

 Associative: z1(z2z3) = (z1z2)z3
 Multiplicative identity: z . 1 = z = 1 . z
Here, 1 is multiplicative identity of an element z.
 Multiplicative inverse: For every non-zero zero complex number z, there exists a complex number z1 such that z . z1 = 1 = z1 . z
 Distributive law: z1(z2 + z3) = z1z2 + z1z3

Division of Complex Numbers

Let z1 = x1 + iy1 and z2 = x2 + iy2 be any two complex numbers, then their division is defined a
as

Conjugate of Complex Number

i), then said to be conjugate of the complex number z and it is denoted by z¯, i.e. z¯ = x – iy
Let z = x + iy, if ‘i’ is replaced by (-i),
Properties of Conjugate

Modulus of a Complex Number

Let z = x + iy be a complex number. Then, the positive square root of the sum of square of real part and square of imaginary part is
called modulus (absolute values) of z and it is denoted by |z| i.e. |z| = x2+y2−−−−−−√
It represents a distance of z from origin in the set of complex number c, the order relation is not definedefined
i.e. z1 > z2 or z1 < z2 has no meaning but |z1| > |z2| or ||z1|<|z2| has got its meaning, since |z1| and |z2| are real numbers.
Properties of Modulus of a Complex number

Argand Plane
Any complex number z = x + iy can be represented geometrically by a point (x, y) in a plane, called argand plane or gaussian plane. A
purely number x, i.e. (x + 0i) is represented by the point (x, 0) on XX-axis. Therefore, X-axis
axis is called real axis. A purely
pure imaginary
number iy i.e. (0 + iy) is represented by the point (0, y) on the yy-axis. Therefore, the y-axis
axis is called the imaginary axis.

Argument of a complex Number

The angle made by line joining point z to the origin, with the positive direction of X
X-axis in an anti-clockwise
clockwise sense is called argument or
amplitude of complex number. It is denoted by the symbol arg(z) or amp(z)
amp(z).
arg(z) = θ = tan-1(yx)

Argument of z is not unique, general value of the argument of z is 2nπ + θ, but arg(0) is not defined. The unique value of θ such that -π
< θ ≤ π is called the principal value of the amplitude or principal argument.

Principal Value of Argument

  if x > 0 and y > 0, then arg(z) = θ
 if x < 0 and y > 0, then arg(z) = π – θ
 if x < 0 and y < 0, then arg(z) = -(π – θ)
 if x > 0 and y < 0, then arg(z) = -θ

Polar Form of a Complex Number

If z = x + iy is a complex number, then z can be written as z = |z| (cosθ + isinθ), where θ = arg(z). This is called polar form. If the
general value of the argument is θ, then the polar form of z is z = |z| [cos (2nπ + θ) + isin(2nπ + θ)], where n is an integer.

Square Root of a Complex Number

Solution of a Quadratic Equation

The equation ax2 + bx + c = 0, where a, b and c are numbers (real or complex, a ≠ 0) is called the general quadratic equation in variable
x. The values of the variable satisfying the given equation are called roots of the equation.

The quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0 with

ith real coefficients has two roots given by −b+√D2a and −b−√D2a, where D = b2 – 4ac, called
the discriminant of the equation.
Note:
(i) When D = 0, roots ore real and equal. When D > 0 roots are real and unequal. Further If a,b, c ∈ Q and D is perfect square, then the
roots of quadratic equation are real and unequal and if a, b, c ∈ Q and D is not perfect square, then the roots are irrational and occur in
pair. When D < 0, roots of the equation are non real (or complex).

(ii) Let α, β be the roots of quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0, then sum of roots α + β = −ba and the product of roots αβ = ca.

Linear Inequalities
Inequation
A statement involving variables and the sign of inequalit
inequality viz. >, <, ≥ or ≤ is called an inequation or an inequality.

Numerical Inequalities
Inequalities which do not contain any variable is called numerical inequalities, e.g. 3 < 7, 2 ≥ -1,
1, etc. Literal Inequalities Inequalities
which contains variables are called
lled literal inequalities e.g. x – y > 0, x > 5, etc.

Linear Inequation of One Variable

Let a be non-zero
zero real number and x be a variable. Then, inequalities of the form ax + b > 0, ax + b < 0, ax + b ≥ 0 and ax + b ≤ 0 are
known as linear inequalities in one variable.

Linear Inequation of Two Variables

Let a, b be non-zero
zero real numbers and x, y be variables. Then, inequation of the form ax + by < c, ax + by > c, ax + by ≤ c and ax + by ≥
c are known as linear inequalities in two variables x and y.

Solution of an Inequality
The value(s) of the variable(s) which makes the inequality a true statement is called its solutions. The set of all solutions of an inequality
is called the solution set of the inequality.

Solving Linear Inequations in One Variable

Same number
umber may be added (or subtracted) to both sides of an inequation without changing the sign of inequality.
Both sides of an inequation can be multiplied (or divided) by the same positive real number without changing the sign of inequality.
However, the sign of inequality is reversed when both sides of an inequation are multiplied or divided by a negative number.

Representation of Solution of Linear Inequality in One Variable on a Number Line

To represent the solution of a linear inequality in one variable on a number line. We use the following algorithm.

If the inequality involves ‘>’ or ‘<‘ we draw an open circle (O) on the number line, which indicates that the number corresponding to the
open circle is not included in the solution set.

If the inequality involves ‘≥’ or ‘≤’ we draw a dark circle (•) on the number line, which indicates the number corresponding to the dark
circle is included in the solution set.

Graphical Representation of the Solution of Linear Inequality in One or Two Variables

To represent the solution of linear inequality in one or two variables graphically in a plane, we use the following algorithm.

If the inequality involves ‘<’ or ‘>’, we draw the graph of the line as dotted line to indicate that the points on the line are not included from
the solution sets.

If the inequality involves ‘≥’ or ‘≤’, we draw the graph of the line as a dark line to indicate the points on the line is included from the
solution sets.

Solution of a linear inequality in one variable can be represented on number line as well as in the plane but the solution of a linear
inequality in two variables of the type ax + by > c, ax + by ≥ c,ax + by < c or ax + by ≤ c (a ≠ 0, b ≠ 0) can be represented in the plane
only.

Two or more inequalities taken together comprise a system of inequalities and the solution of the system of inequalities are the solution
common to all the inequalities comprising the system.

Permutations and Combinations

Fundamental Principles of Counting
Multiplication Principle: Suppose an operation A can be performed in m ways and associated with each way of performing of A, another
operation B can be performed in n ways, then total number of performance of two operations in the given order is mxn ways. This can
be extended to any finite number of operations.

Addition Principle: If an operation A can be performed in m ways and another operation S, which is independent of A, can be
performed in n ways, then A and B can performed in (m + n) ways. This can be extended to any finite number of exclusive events.

Binomial Theorem
Binomial Expression
An expression consisting of two terms, connected by + or – sign is called binomial expression.

Binomial Theorem
If a and b are real numbers and n iss a positive integer, then
The general term of (r + 1)th term in the expression is given by
Tr+1 = nCr an-r br

Some Important Observations from the Binomial Theorem

The total number of terms in the binomial expansion of (a + b) n is n + 1.

The sum of the indices of a and b in each term is n.

The coefficient of terms equidistant from the beginning and the end are equal. These coefficients are known as the binomial coefficient
and
n
Cr = nCn-r, r = 0, 1, 2, 3,…, n

The values of the binomial coefficient steadily increase to a maximum and then steadily decrease.

The coefficient of xr in the expansion of (1 + x)n is nCr.

In the binomial expansion (a + b)n, the rth term from the end is (n – r + 2)th term from the beginning.

Middle Term in the Expansion of (a + b)n

If n is even, then in the expansion of (a + b)n, the middle term is (n2 + 1) th term.
If n is odd, then in the expansion of (a + b)n, the middle terms are (n+12)th term and (n+32)th term.

CBSE Class 11 Maths Notes Chapter 9 Sequences and Series

Sequence
A succession of numbers arranged in a definite order according to a given certain rule is called sequence. A sequence is either finite or
infinite depending upon the number of terms in a sequence.

Series
If a1, a2, a3,…… an is a sequence, then the expression a 1 + a2 + a3 + a4 + … + an is called series.

Progression
A sequence whose terms follow certain patterns are more often called progression.

Arithmetic Progression (AP)

A sequence in which the difference of two consecutive terms is constant, is called Arithmetic progression (AP).

Properties of Arithmetic Progression (AP)

If a sequence is an A.P. then its nth term is a linear expression in n i.e. its nth term is given by An + B, where A and S are constant and
A is common difference.

nth term of an AP : If a is the first term, d is common difference and l is the last term of an AP then

 nth term is given by an = a + (n – 1)d.

 nth term of an AP from the last term is a’n =an – (n – 1)d.
 an + a’n = constant
 Common difference of an AP i.e. d = an – an-1,∀ n > 1.

If a constant is added or subtracted from each term of an AR then the resulting sequence is an AP with same common difference.

If each term of an AP is multiplied or divided by a non-zero constant, then the resulting sequence is also an AP.

If a, b and c are three consecutive terms of an A.P then 2b = a + c.

Any three terms of an AP can be taken as (a – d)
d),, a, (a + d) and any four terms of an AP can be taken as (a – 3d), (a – d), (a + d), (a +
3d)

Sum of n Terms of an AP
Sum of n terms of an AP is given by
Sn = n2 [2a + (n – 1)d] = n2 (a1+ an)
A sequence is an AP If the sum of n terms is of the form A
An2 + Bn, where A and B are constant and A = half of common difference i.e.
2A = d.

an =Sn – Sn-1

Arithmetic Mean
If a, A and b are in A.P then A = a+b2 is called the arithmetic mean of a and b.
If a1, a2, a3,……an are n numbers, then their arithmetic mean is ggiven by

Geometric Progression (GP)

A sequence in which the ratio of two consecutive terms is constant is called geometric progression. The constant ratio is called
cal
common ratio(r).
i.e. r = an+1an, ∀ n > 1
Properties of Geometric Progression
If a is the first term and r is the common ratio, then the general term or nth term of GP is an =arn-1

nth term of a GP from the end is a’n = 1rn−1, l = last term

If all the terms of GP be multiplied or divided by same nonnon-zero
zero constant, then the resulting sequence is a GP with the same common
ratio.

The reciprocal terms of a given GP form a GP.

If each term of a GP be raised to some power, the resulting sequence al

also forms a GP

If a, b and c are three consecutive terms of a GP then b2 = ac.

Any three terms can be taken in GP as ar, a and ar and any four terms can be taken in GP as ar3, ar, ar and ar
a 3.
Sum of n Terms of a G.P

Geometric Mean (GM)

If a, G and b are in GR then G is called the geometric mean of a and b and is given by G = √(ab).

If a,G1, G2, G3,….. Gn, b are in GP then G1, G2, G3,……Gn are in GM’s between a and b, then
common ratio r = (ba)1n+1
If a1, a2, a3,…, an are n numbers are non-zero
zero and non
non-negative, then their GM is given by
GM = (a1 . a2 . a3 …an)1/n

Product of n GM is G1 × G2 × G3 ×… × Gn =Gn = ((ab)n2

Important Results on the Sum of Special SequenceSequences

Σn = 1 + 2 + 3 +… + n = n(n+1)2
Sum of squares of first n natural numbers is
Σn2 = 12 + 22 + 32 + … + n2 = n(n+1)(2n+1)6

The normal form: The equation of a straightght line upon which the length of the perpendicular from the origin is p and angle made by this

General Equation of a Line

Any equation of the form Ax + By + C = 0, where A and B are simu
simultaneously
ltaneously not zero is called the general equation of a line.

Different Forms of Ax + By + C = 0
Slope intercept form: If B ≠ 0, then Ax + By + C = 0 can be written a
as

If B = 0, then x = – C / A which is a vertical line, whose slope is not defined and xx-intercept is – C/A.

in on
the axes.

Introduction to Three Dimensional Geomet

Geometry
Coordinate Axes
In three dimensions, the coordinate axes of a rectangular cartesian coordinate system are three mutually perpendicular lines. These
axes are called the X, Y and Z axes.

Coordinate Planes
The three planes determined by the pair of axes are the coordinate planes. These planes are called XY, YZ and ZX plane and they
th
divide the space into eight regions known as octants.

Coordinates of a Point in Space

The coordinates of a point in the space are
e the perpendicular distances from P on three mutually perpendicular coordinate planes YZ,
ZX, and XY respectively. The coordinates of a point P are written in the form of triplet like (x, y, z)

Limits and Derivatives

Limit
Let y = f(x) be a function of x. If at x = a, f(x) takes indeterminate form, then we consider the values of the function which is very near to
a. If these value tend to a definite unique number as x tends to a, then the unique number so obtained is called the limit of f(x) at x = a
and we write it as limx→af(x).
Left Hand and Right-Hand Limits
If values of the function at the point which are very near to a on the left tends to a definite unique number as x tends to a, then the
unique number so obtained is called the left-hand limit of f(x) at x = a, we write it as

Probability
Random Experiment
An experiment whose outcomes cannot be predicted or determined in advance is called a random experiment.

Outcome
A possible result of a random experiment is called its outcome.

Sample Space
A sample space is the set of all possible outcomes of an experiment.

Events
An event is a subset of a sample space associated with a random experiment.

Types of Events
Impossible and sure events: The empty set Φ and the sample space S describes events. Intact Φ is called the impossible event and
S i.e. whole sample space is called sure event.

Simple or elementary event: Each outcome of a random experiment is called an elementary event.

Compound events: If an event has more than one outcome is called compound events.
Complementary events: Given an event A, the complement of A is the event consisting of all sample space outcomes that do not
correspond to the occurrence of A.

Mutually Exclusive Events

Two events A and B of a sample space S are mutually exclusive if the occurrence of any one of them excludes the occurrence of the
other event. Hence, the two events A and B cannot occur simultaneously and thus P(A ∩ B) = 0.

Exhaustive Events
If E1, E2,…….., En are n events of a sample space S and if E1 ∪ E2 ∪ E3 ∪………. ∪ En = S, then E1, E2,……… E3 are called exhaustive
events.

Mutually Exclusive and Exhaustive Events

If E1, E2,…… En are n events of a sample space S and if
Ei ∩ Ej = Φ for every i ≠ j i.e. Ei and Ej are pairwise disjoint and E1 ∪ E2 ∪ E3 ∪………. ∪ En = S, then the events
E1, E2,………, En are called mutually exclusive and exhaustive events.

Probability Function
Let S = (w1, w2,…… wn) be the sample space associated with a random experiment. Then, a function p which assigns every event A ⊂
S to a unique non-negative real number P(A) is called the probability function.
It follows the axioms hold

 0 ≤ P(wi) ≤ 1 for each W i ∈ S

 P(S) = 1 i.e. P(w1) + P(w2) + P(w3) + … + P(wn) = 1
 P(A) = ΣP(wi) for any event A containing elementary event wi.

Probability of an Event
If there are n elementary events associated with a random experiment and m of them are favorable to an event A, then the probability
of occurrence of A is defined as

The odd in favour of occurrence of the event A are defined by m : (n – m).

The odd against the occurrence of A are defined by n – m : m.
The probability of non-occurrence of A is given by P( A¯) = 1 – P(A).
Addition Rule of Probabilities
If A and B are two events associated with a random experiment, then
P(A ∪ B) = P(A) + P(B) – P(A ∩ B)
Similarly, for three events A, B, and C, we have
P(A ∪ B ∪ C) = P(A) + P(B) + P(C) – P(A ∩ B) – P(A ∩ C) – P(B ∩ C) + P(A ∩ B ∩ C)

Note: If A andB are mutually exclusive events, then

P(A ∪ B) = P(A) + P(B)
