Relations and Functions
Relations
A relation RR from set AA to set BB is a subset of the Cartesian product A×BA \times B.
o Reflexive Relation: (a, a) ∈R (a, a) \in R for every a∈Aa \in A.
Types of Relations:
o Symmetric Relation: If (a, b) ∈R (a, b) \in R, then (b, a) ∈R (b, a) \in R.
o Transitive Relation: If (a,b)∈R(a, b) \in R and (b,c)∈R(b, c) \in R, then
(a,c)∈R(a, c) \in R.
o Antisymmetric Relation: If (a,b)∈R(a, b) \in R and (b,a)∈R(b, a) \in R, then
a=ba = b.
Functions
Domain of a function f:A→Bf: A \to B is the set of all inputs x∈A for which f(x) is
defined.
Range is the set of all possible outputs.
One-to-one Function (Injective): If f(a)=f(b) implies a=b.
Onto Function (Surjective): Every element of BB is the image of at least one element of
AA.
Bijective Function: A function that is both injective and surjective.
Inverse Function: f−1:B→Af^{-1}: B \to A, such that f(f−1(x))=xf(f^{-1}(x)) = x.
Inverse Trigonometric Functions (Standard Formulas)
sin−1(x)=θ ⟹ sin(θ)=x\sin^{-1}(x) = \theta \implies \sin(\theta) = x
cos−1(x)=θ ⟹ cos(θ)=x\cos^{-1}(x) = \theta \implies \cos(\theta) = x
tan−1(x)=θ ⟹ tan(θ)=x\tan^{-1}(x) = \theta \implies \tan(\theta) = x
2. Inverse Trigonometric Functions
Basic Identities
sin−1(x)+cos−1(x)=π2\sin^{-1}(x) + \cos^{-1}(x) = \frac{\pi}{2}
tan−1(x)+cot−1(x)=π2\tan^{-1}(x) + \cot^{-1}(x) = \frac{\pi}{2}
Derivative Formulas
ddx[sin−1(x)]=11−x2\frac{d}{dx}[\sin^{-1}(x)] = \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - x^2}}
ddx[cos−1(x)]=−11−x2\frac{d}{dx}[\cos^{-1}(x)] = -\frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - x^2}}
ddx[tan−1(x)]=11+x2\frac{d}{dx}[\tan^{-1}(x)] = \frac{1}{1 + x^2}
3. Matrices
Basic Operations
Addition of Matrices:
o If A=[aij]A = [a_{ij}] and B=[bij]B = [b_{ij}], then A+B=[aij+bij]A + B =
[a_{ij} + b_{ij}].
Multiplication of Matrices:
o If AA is of order m×nm \times n and BB is of order n×pn \times p, then ABAB is
of order m×pm \times p.
Transpose of a Matrix:
o AT=[aji]A^T = [a_{ji}] where aija_{ij} is the element of the ii-th row and jj-th
column of AA.
Determinants
Determinant of a 2x2 Matrix: det(abcd)=ad−bc\text{det}\left(\begin{matrix} a & b \\ c
& d \end{matrix}\right) = ad - bc
Cofactor Expansion for Determinants
Inverse of a Matrix (using adjoint method): A−1=1det(A)adj(A)A^{-1} = \frac{1}{\
text{det}(A)} \text{adj}(A) where adj(A) is the adjoint of AA.
4. Continuity and Differentiability
Continuity
A function f(x)f(x) is continuous at x=ax = a if: limx→af(x)=f(a)\lim_{x \to a} f(x) = f(a)
Differentiability
A function f(x)f(x) is differentiable at x=ax = a if the derivative exists: f′
(x)=limh→0f(x+h)−f(x)hf'(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x+h) - f(x)}{h}
Standard Derivatives
ddx(xn)=nxn−1\frac{d}{dx}(x^n) = n x^{n-1}
ddx(sinx)=cosx\frac{d}{dx}(\sin x) = \cos x
ddx(cosx)=−sinx\frac{d}{dx}(\cos x) = -\sin x
ddx(tanx)=sec2x\frac{d}{dx}(\tan x) = \sec^2 x
5. Applications of Derivatives
Tangents and Normals
Equation of tangent at x=ax = a to y=f(x)y = f(x) is: y−f(a)=f′(a)(x−a)y - f(a) = f'(a)(x - a)
Maxima and Minima
First Derivative Test:
o If f′(x)>0f'(x) > 0 in an interval, f(x)f(x) is increasing.
o If f′(x)<0f'(x) < 0 in an interval, f(x)f(x) is decreasing.
Second Derivative Test:
o If f′′(x)>0f''(x) > 0, the function has a local minima.
o If f′′(x)<0f''(x) < 0, the function has a local maxima.
