Chapter 1: Real Numbers

Real Numbers are the combination of both rational and irrational numbers. It included positive and negative integers, irrational numbers, and fractions. To put it another way, a real number is any number found in the actual world. Numbers may be found everywhere. Natural numbers are used to count items, integers to measure temperature, rational numbers to represent fractions, and irrational numbers to calculate the square root of a number, among other things.

The chapter Real Numbers include both irrational and rational numbers with all natural numbers, whole numbers, integers, etc., and discuss their characteristics.

Chapter 1 Real Numbers - Important Points

• Euclid’s Division Algorithm (lemma): According to Euclid’s Division Lemma if we have two positive integers a and b, then there exist unique integers q and r such that a = bq + r, where 0 ≤ r ≤ b. (Here, a is the dividend, b is the divisor, q is the quotient, and r is the remainder.)

Chapter 2: Polynomials

Polynomials are algebraic expressions that consist of coefficients and variables or are indeterminate. An arithmetic operation such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and also positive integer exponents for polynomial expressions but not division by variable can be performed on polynomials.

This particular chapter presents the idea of the degree of polynomials, how a polynomial with degree 1 is a linear polynomial, degree 2 is a quadratic polynomial, and degree 3 is a cubic polynomial. Moreover, the most important topics discussed in this chapter are the zeroes of a polynomial and the relationship between zeroes and coefficients of quadratic polynomials only.

• Nature of Roots of Quadratic Equation
  • D > 0, roots are real and distinct (unequal).
  • D = 0, roots are real and equal (coincident) i.e. α = β = -b/2a.
  • D < 0, roots are imaginary and unequal i.e α = (p + iq) and β = (p – iq). Where ‘iq’ is the imaginary part of a complex number.

• Sum of roots: S = α+β= -b/a = coefficient of x/coefficient of x².

• Product of roots: P = αβ = c/a = constant term/coefficient of x².

• Quadratic equation in the form of roots: x² – (α+β)x + (αβ) = 0

• The quadratic equations a₁x₂ + b₁x + c₁ = 0 and a₂x₂ + b₂x + c₂ = 0 have;
  • One common root if (b₁c₂ – b₂c₁)/(c₁a₂ – c₂a₁) = (c₁a₂ – c₂a₁)/(a₁b₂ – a₂b₁)
  • Both roots common if a₁/a₂ = b₁/b₂ = c₁/c₂

• In quadratic equation ax² + bx + c = 0 or [(x + b/2a)² – D/4a²]
  • If a > 0, minimum value = 4ac – b²/4a at x = -b/2a.
  • If a < 0, maximum value 4ac – b²/4a at x= -b/2a.

Trigonometry has a lot of practical applications in real life. This part of geometry discusses the line of sight, angle of deviation, angle of elevation, and angle of depression. Using trigonometry and trigonometric ratios the height of a building, or a mountain, from a viewpoint and the elevation angle can be determined easily.

As we have learned the basics of trigonometry in the previous chapter, so now it's time to learn their practical applications. Hence, the topics studied in this chapter will help to understand learners' use of trigonometry. This chapter also helps with the practical concepts of trigonometry like the line of sight, angle of depression, and angle of elevation and to determine height or distance.

• Horizontal Line - The distance between the observer and the object is measured by a horizontal line.

• Angle of Elevation - The angle formed by the line of sight to the top of the item and the horizontal line is called an angle of elevation. It is above the horizontal line, i.e. when we gaze up at the item, we make an angle of elevation.

• Angle of Depression - When the spectator must look down to perceive the item, an angle of depression is formed. When the horizontal line is above the angle, the angle of depression is formed between it and the line of sight.

Chapter 10: Circles

A circle is a geometrical shape that is defined as the locus of points that move in a plane so that its distance from a fixed point is always constant. This fixed point is the Centre of the circle while the fixed distance from it is called the radius of the circle.
