General Instructions:

1.As per CCE guidelines, the syllabus of mathematics for class x has been divided into two terms.

2. The units specified for each term shall be assessed through both formative and summative assessment.

3. In each term there will be two formative assessment and one summative assessment.

4. Listed Laboratory activities and projects will necessary be assessed through formative assessment.

Value Based Questions: 1. To inculcate knowledge, skills and values through Holistic education.

2. Inclusion of values in assessment scheme will result in greater emphasis to this component of education in teaching learning process.

3. The marks allotted to value based questions is 3-5.

Problem Solving Assessment:

1. The ‘Problem Solving Assessment’ (CBSE-PSA)will be counted towards FA-4 which is 10% of the total assessment of class IX. This assessment will also be carried forwards towards the FA-4 in class X. This score will be reflected in one language (English or Hindi), Mathematics, Science and Social Science. The same score will be reflected in FA-4for class IX and X.

2.The students will have the option to improve their PSA score in class X, as they can sit for the test with class IX students. The best score will be reflected in the final certificate in case of those applying for improvement.

TIPS FOR EFFECTIVE USE OF STUDY MATERIAL :-

  1. Go through the course of study given in the beginning. Identify the chapter carrying more weight age.

1.Real numbers

( Key Points )

  1. Euclid’s Division lemma:- Given Positive integers a and b, there exist unique integers q and r satisfying

a = b q +r, where 0≤ r < b, where a, b, q and r are respectively known as dividend, divisor, quotient and remainder.

i.e. Dividend = Divisor Quotient + Remainder

  1. Euclid’s division Algorithm:- A technique of finding HCF of two positive integers.
  2. To obtain the HCF of two positive integers say c and d, with c >d, follow the steps below:

Step I: Apply Euclid’s division lemma, to c and d, so we find whole numbers, q and r such that c = d q + r, 0

Step II: If r=0, d is the HCF of c and d. If r division lemma to d and r.

Step III: Continue the process till the remainder is zero. The divisor at this stage will be the required HCF

Ex. Q. Use Euclid’s Division Algorithm to find the HCF of:

•135 and 225

Solution: We start with the larger number 225.

By Euclid’s Division Algorithm, we have

225=135×1+90

We apply Euclid’s Division Algorithm on

Divisor 135 and the remainder 90.

135=90×1+45

Again we apply Euclid’s Division Algorithm on divisor 90 and remainder 45

90=45×2+0

So, H.C.F.(225,90)=45.

  1. The Fundamental theorem of Arithmetic:-

Every composite number can be expressed (factorised ) as a product of primes, and this factorization is unique, apart from the order in which the prime factors occur.

Ex.:

Ex-Check whether are composite number and justify.

We have, 7×11×13+13=1001+13=1014

1014=2×3×13×13

So, it is the product of more than two prime nos.

2,3 and 13.

Hence, it is a composite number.

7×6×5×4×3×2×1+5=5040+5=5045

5045=5×1009

It is the product of prime factors 5 and 1009.

Hence , it is a composite number.

Ans:-Composite number

Theorem: LET x be a rational number whose decimal expansion terminates. Then x can be expressed in the form ,where p and q are co-prime and the prime factorisation of q is the form of 2m5n, where n, m are non negative integers.

Ex.

Theorem: LET x be a rational number such that the prime factorisation of q is not of the form of 2m5n, where n, m are non negative integers. Then, x has a decimal expansion which is non terminating repeating (recurring).

Ex.

Theorem: For any two positive integers a and b,

HCF (a,b) X LCM (a,b)=a X b

Ex.: 4 & 6; HCF (4,6) = 2, LCM (4,6) = 12; HCF X LCM = 2 X 12 =24

Ans. : a X b = 24

Theorem: Let p be a prime number. If p divides a2 , then p divides a, where ‘a’ is a positive integer

Theorem 4 :√2 is irrational.

Proof : Let √2 be a rational number.

Therefore, √2 = p/q, where p and q are co-primes integers and q ≠ 0.

On squaring both side, we get

2 = p²/q²

p² = 2q²

p² is divisible by 2

Therefore, p is divisible by 2 (by above theorem )

Again, suppose p = 2m

p² = 4m² ( on squaring both side )

2q² = 4m²

i.e q² = 2m²

this means, q² is divisible by 2

Hence, q is divisible by 2.

Since, p and q are both are divisible by 2.

Therefore, p and q both has a common factor 2.

Which gives a contradiction to our assumption.

Therefore, √2 is not rational number

i.e √2 is irrational number.

Note: , x + 1/x are not polynomials, because exponent of variable are not non negative integers.

  • A polynomial is of the form p(x) = ax + b where a and b are real numbers and a 0, is of degree 1 and called linear polynomial. Ex. 5x -3, 2x etc
  • A polynomial is of the form p(x) = ax2 + b x + c where a , b and c are real numbers and

a 0, is of degree 2 and called quadratic polynomial. Ex. 2x2 + x – 1, 1 – 5x + x2 etc

  • A polynomial is of the p(x) = ax3 + b x2 + cx + d where a , b, ,c and d are real numbers and a 0, is of degree 3 and called cubic polynomial. Ex. etc.

  • A linear polynomial has at most one zero.
  • A Quadratic polynomial has at most two zeroes.
  • A Cubic polynomial has at most three zeroes
  • The number of times a graph of a polynomial P(x) intersect the X-axis is the number of zeroes of P(x).

  • A quadratic polynomial whose zeroes are α and β, is given by: k{x2-(α+β)+αβ}
