Unit I : Algebra
1. Polynomials :
Zeros of a polynomial. Relationship between zeros and coefficients of quadratic polynomials.
Statement and simple problems on division algorithm for polynomials with real coefficients.
2. Pair of Linear Equations in two variables :
Pair of linear equations in two variables and graphical method of their soultion. Algebraic conditions
for number of solutions. Solution of a pair of linear equations in two variable algebraically- by substitution,
by elimination and by cross multiplication method. Simple problems on equations reducible reducible to
linear equations.
3. Quadratic Equations :
Standard from of quadratic equation ax2+bx+c=0, (a=0). Solutions of quadratic equations (only
real roots) by factorization and by using quadratic formula. Relationship between discriminant and
nature of roots.
4. Arithmetic Progressions :
Motivation for studying Arithmetic Progression Derivation of the nth term and sum of the first n
terms of A.P.
Unit II : Coordinate Geometry
1. Lines (in two-dimension)
Review : Conceptions of coordinate geometry, graphs of linear equations. Distance formula. Section
formula (internal division). Area of a triangle.
Unit III : Geometry
1. Triangles
Definitions, examples, counter examples of similar triangles.
i) (Prove) If a line is drawn parallel to one side of triangle to intersect the other two sides in distinct
points, the other two sides are divided inthe same ratio.
ii) (Motivate) If a line divides two sides of a triangle in the same ratio, the line is parallel to the third
side.
iii) (Motivate) It in two triangles, the corresponding angles are equal, their corresponding sides are
proportional and the triangles are similar.
iv) (Motivate) If the corresponding sides of two triangles are proportional, their corresponding
 angles are equal and the two triangles are similar.
v) )(Motivate) If one angle of triangle is equal to one angle of another triangle and the sides including
these angles are proportional, the two triangles are similar.
vi) (Motivate) If a perpendicular is drawn from the vertex of the right angle of a right triangly to the
hypotenuse, the triangles on each side of the perpendicular are similar to the whole triangle and to
each other.
vii) (Prove) The ratio of the areas of two similar triangles is equal to the ratio of the squares of their
corresponding sides. (only theorem)
viii) (Prove) In a right triangle, the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the
other two sides.
ix) (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.
Excluded problems based on the application of article 7 and 8 above.
2. Circles
Tangent to a circle at point of contact
(i) (Prove) The tangent at any point of a circle is perpendicular to the radius through the point of
contact.
(ii) (Prove) The length of tangents drawn from an external point to a circle are equal.
3. Constructions
(i) Division of a line segment in a given ratio (internally)
ii) Tangents to a circle from a point outside it.
iii) Construction of a triangle similar to a given triangle.
Unit IV : Trigonometry
1. Introduction to Trigonometry
Trigonometric ratios of an acute angle of a right-angled triangle. Proof of their existence (well
defined), motivate the ratios whichever are defined at 00 and 900 . Values of the trigonometric ratios
of 300, 450 and 600. Relationships between the ratios. Trigonometric ratios of compelemtary angles.
2. Heights and Distances : Angle of elevation, Angle of Depression
Simple problems on heights and distances. Problems should no involve more than two right
triangles. Angles of elevation / depression should be only 300, 450, 600.
Unit V : Mensuration
1. Areas Related to Circles :
Motivate the area of circle, area of sectors and segments of a circle. Problems based on areas and
perimeter / circumference of the above plane figures. (In calculating area of segment of a circle.
problems should be restricted to central angle of 600, 900).
2. Surface Areas and Volumes :
i) Surface areas and volumes of combinations of any two of the following : cubes, cuboids,
spheres, hemispheres and right circular cylinders / cones.
ii) Problems involving converting one type of metallic solid into another and other mixed problems.
(Problems with combination of not more than two different solids be taken).
Unit VI : Statistics and Probability
1. Statistics : Mean, median and mode of grouped data (bimodal situation to be avoided).
2. Probability
Classical definition of probability. Simple problems on finding the probability of an event.
