done earlier and after illustrating and motivating through examples, Proofs
of irrationality of
• Euclid’s division lemma – Exercise 1.1
• Decimal representation of Rational numbers in terms of recurring decimals
– Exercise 1.4

2. Polynomials • Zeros of a polynomial.


• Relationship between zeros and coefficients of quadratic polynomials
• Statement and simple problems on division algorithm of polynomials with
real coefficients – Exercise 2.3 & 2.4

3. Pair of Linear Equations with Two Variables • Pair of linear equations in two variables and graphical method of their
solution, consistency/inconsistency.
• Algebraic conditions for number of solutions. Solution of a pair of linear
equations in two variables algebraically - by substitution, by elimination,
by cross multiplication, and by Reduction Method – Exercise 3.5 (1),
Exercise 3.6

4. Quadratic Equations • Standard form of a quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0, (a ≠ 0). Solutions


of quadratic equations (only real roots) by factorization, and by using
quadratic formula.

5. Arithmetic Progression • Motivation for studying Arithmetic Progression Derivation of the nth term
and sum of the first n terms of A.P.
• Application in solving daily life problems (applications based sums to n terms
of AP are excluded)

6. Triangles • Definitions, examples, counter examples of similar triangles.


• (Prove) If a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle to intersect the other
two sides in distinct points, the other two sides are divided in the same ratio.
• (Motivate) If a line divides two sides of a triangle in the same ratio, the line is
parallel to the third side.
• (Motivate) If in two triangles, the corresponding angles are equal, their
corresponding sides are proportional and the triangles are similar.
• (Motivate) If the corresponding sides of two triangles are proportional, their
corresponding angles are equal and the two triangles are similar.
• (Motivate) If one angle of a triangle is equal to one angle of another triangle
and the sides including these angles are proportional, the two triangles are
similar.
• (Motivate) If a perpendicular is drawn from the vertex of the right angle of a
right triangle to the hypotenuse, the triangles on each side of the perpendicular
are similar to whole triangle & each other
• (Prove) In a right triangle, the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of
the squares on the other two sides. (Pythagoras Theorem)
• (Prove) The ratio of the areas of two similar triangles is equal to the ratio of
the squares of their corresponding sides
• (Prove) In a triangle, if the square on one side is equal to sum of the squares
on the other two sides, the angles opposite to the first side is a right angle.

9. Application of Trigonometry • HEIGHTS AND DISTANCES: ANGLE OF ELEVATION, ANGLE OF


DEPRESSION.
• Simple problems on heights and distances.
• Problems should not involve more than two right triangles. Angles of
elevation / depression should be only 30°, 45°, and 60°.
10. Circles • Tangent to a circle at, point of contact

through the point of contact.
• (Prove) The lengths of tangents drawn from an external point to a circle
are equal.

12. Areas related to Circles • Motivate the Area of the circle (Method)
• Area of sectors and segments of a circle.
• Problems based on areas and perimeter /circumference of the above said
plane figures. (In calculating area of segment of a circle, problems should
be restricted to central angle of 60°, 90° and 120° only)

cubes, cuboids, spheres, hemispheres and right circular cylinders/cones.
