Rational Numbers – Addition, subtraction, multiplication and division of rational numbers. Finding the rational number between two rational number. Ratio and Proportion – definition, properties, aterments, inuertends, componendo, etc. and their uses. Simultaneous equation, (a + b) (a + b), (a – b) (a – b), (a + b) (a – b) related quetions. Arithmetic progression – Definition, general(n th) term and sum of n terms, arthmetic mean.

Distance between two points,proportional division of a line (section formula), area of triangle, condition of co-linearity of three points. Trigonometry – Measure of angles in the sexagesimal. contesimal and circular systems, relation between arc, radius and central angle. Proof of the trigonometrical ratios of complementary angles – sin(90° – é) = cos é, cos(90° – é) = sin é, tan(90° – é) = cot é, cot(90° – é) = tan é, sec(90° – é) = cosec é, cosec(90° – é) = sec é and related questions. Mensuration – Surface area and volume of prism, cylinder, cone and sphere. Similar triangles, circles and geometrical consitructions.
