Course Structure Class - X: Units Unit Name Marks

The document outlines the course structure and unit breakdown for Class X mathematics. It is divided into 7 units covering various math topics like number systems, algebra, coordinate geometry, geometry, trigonometry, mensuration, and statistics. The marks distribution shows Unit II on algebra receives the highest marks allocation of 20. Key concepts covered include polynomials, linear equations, quadratic equations, and arithmetic progressions. The question paper design allocates around 54% of marks to questions testing recall and 24% to application-based questions. Internal assessment accounts for 20 additional marks.
