ANSWER KEY

KEY CONCEPTS
The general form of a quadratic equation in x is, ax2 + bx + c = 0 , where a , b , c e R&a^O.
RESULTS :

The solution of the quadratic equation, ax2 + bx + c = 0 is given by x =

- b /b 2 - 4ac
2a

The expression b 2 -4ac=D is called the discriminant of the quadratic equation.


2.

If a & (3 are the roots of the quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0 , then ;


(i) a + p = - b/a

' (ii) a p = c/a

(iii) a -B = Vd/a .

NATURE OF ROOTS :

(A)

(B)

Consider the quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0 where a, b, c e R & a ^ O then ;


(i)
D > 0 <=> roots are real & distinct (unequal) .
(ii)
D = 0 <=> roots are real & coincident (equal) .
(iii)
D < 0 <=> roots are imaginary .
(iv)
If p + iq is one root ofa quadratic equation, then the other must be the
conjugate p - i q & vice versa . (p, q e R & i =
1) .
Consider the quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0 where a, b, c e Q & a # 0 then ;
(i) If D > 0 & is a perfect square , then roots are rational & unequal.
(ii)

If a = p + ^/q is one root in this case, (where pis rational & y'q is a surd)
then the other root must be the conjugate of it i.e. P = p - ^/q & vice versa.

4.

A quadratic equation whose roots are a & p is (x - a)(x - P) = 0 i.e.


x 2 - ( a + p)x + a,p = 0i.e. x 2 -(sumof roots)x+ product of roots = 0 .

SOLUTION OF QUADRATIC INEQUALITIES :

ax2 + bx + c > 0 (a * 0).


(i)
If D > 0, then the equation ax2 + bx + c = 0 has two different roots x, < x 2 .
Then
a > 0 => x e (-co, Xj) u (x2, oo)
a < 0 => x e (Xj, x2)
(ii)
If D = 0, then roots are equal, i.e. Xj = x2 .
In that case
a > 0 => x e (-co, x,) u (x p oo)
a < 0 => x e (j)

CONCEPTS

DEFINITION:
A sequence is a set of terms in a definite order with a rule for obtaining the terms,
e.g. 1,1/2,1/3,
,1/n,
is a sequence.
AN ARITHMETIC PROGRESSION (AP):
AP is a sequence whose terms increase or decrease by afixednumber. Thisfixednumber is called the
common difference. If a is the first term & d the common difference, then AP can be written as
a, a + d, a + 2d,
a + ( n - l)d,
nth term of this AP tn = a + (n - 1 )d, where d = an - a n l .
The sum ofthe first n terms of the AP is given by ; Sn =

[2 a+ (n - 1 )d] = ^ [a+/].

where I is the last term.


NOTES:
(i)
If each term of an A.P. is increased, decreased, multiplied or divided by the same non zero number, then
the resulting sequence is also an AP.
(ii)
Three numbers in AP can be taken a s a - d , a, a+d; four numbers in AP can be taken as a - 3 d,
a - d , a+d, a+3d; five numbers in APare a - 2 d , a - d , a, a+d, a+2d & six terms in APare
a - 5d, a - 3d, a - d, a + d, a + 3d, a + 5d etc.
(iii)

The common difference can be zero, positive or negative.

(iv)

The sum of the two terms of an AP equidistant from the beginning & end is constant and equal to the
sum of first & last terms.

(v)

Any term of an AP (except thefirst)is equal to half the sum of terms which are equidistant from it.

(vi)

tr=Sr-SM

(vii)

If a, b, c are in AP => 2 b = a + c.

GEOMETRIC PROGRESSION (GP):


GP is a sequence of numbers whosefirstterm is non zero & each of the succeeding terms is equal to the
proceeding terms multiplied by a constant. Thus in a GP the ratio of successive terms is constant. This
constant factor is called the COMMON RATIO of the series & is obtained by dividing any term by
that which immediately proceeds it. Therefore a, ar, ar2,ar3, ar4,
is a GP with a as thefirstterm &
r as common ratio.
(i)
nth term = ar n _ 1
(ii)
(iii)

a(r n -l)
Sum of the I n terms i.e. Sn =
, if r * 1 .
r-1
Sum of an infinite GP when | r | < 1 when n oo rn > 0 if | r | < 1 therefore,
st

S ^ f l r K l ) .
(iv)

If each term of a GP be multiplied or divided by the same non-zero quantity, the resulting sequence is
also a GP.

(v)

Any 3 consecutive terms of a GP can be taken as a/r, a, ar ; any 4 consecutive terms of a GP can be
taken as a/r3, a/r, ar, ar3 & so on.

(vi)

If a, b, c are in GP => b2 = ac.

HARMONIC PROGRESSION (HP):


A sequence is said to HP if the reciprocals of its terms are in AP.
If the sequence a,, a2, a 3 ,...., an is an HP then l/a l5 l/a 2 ,...., l/an is an AP & converse. Here we do
not have the formula for the sum of the n terms of an HP. For HP whose first term is a & second term
isb, then111 term is tn =

b + (n-l)(a-b)

If a, b, c are in HP => b =

2ac
a + c

a - b

d- c

or = T

MEANS
ARITHMETIC MEAN:
If three terms are in AP then the middle term is called the AM between the other two, so if a, b, c are
in AP, b is AM of a & c .
AM for any n positive number a,, a 2 ,..., an is ; A = a ' + a 2 + a ^ +

+a

" .

n-ARITHMETIC MEANS BETWEEN TWO NUMBERS :


Ifa,b are any two given numbers & a,A15A2,.... ,An, b are inAP thenA,, A2, ...Anare then AM's
between a & b .
A1 = a + ^ - , A22 = a + ^ i l

,An= a +

'

'

n (b - a)
n +1
b-a

, A = a + nd, where d = n

NOTE

n+1

: Sum of n AM's inserted between a & b is equal to n times the single AM between a & b
i.e. Xn Ar = nA where A is the single AM between a & b.
r= l

GEOMETRIC

MEANS:.

If a, b, c are in GP, b is the GM between a & c.


b2 = ac, therefore b = Ja c ; a > 0, c > 0.
n-GEOMETRIC MEANS BETWEEN a, b :
If a, b are two given numbers & a, G}, G2,
, Gn, b are in GP. Then
Gj, G2, G 3 ,...., Gn are n GMs between a & b .
G, = a(b/a)1/n+1, G2 = a(b/a)2/n+1,
= ar ,
= ar 2 ,
NOTE

, Gn = a(b/a)n/n+1
= arn, where r = (b/a)1/n+1

: The product of n GMs between a & b is equal to the nth power of the single GM between a & b
n

i.e. ^ G r =(G) n where G is the single GM between a & b.


HARMONIC MEAN :
If a, b, c are in HP, b is the HM between a & c, then b = 2ac/[a+c].
THEOREM:
If A, G, H are respectively AM, GM, HM between a & b both being unequal & positive then,
(i)
G2 = AH
(ii)
A > G > H (G > 0). Note that A, G, H constitute a GP.

ARITHMETICO-GEOMETRIC SERIES:
A series each term of which is formed by multiplying the corresponding term of an AP & GP is called the
Arithmetico-Geometric Series, e.g. 1 + 3x + 5x2 + 7x3 +
Here 1,3,5,.... are in AP& l,x,x 2 ,x 3
areinGP.
Standart appearance of an Arithmetico-Geometric Series is

METHOD OF DIFFERENCE :
If T j , T 2 , T 3 ,
, T N are the terms of a sequence then some times the terms T 2 - T j , T 3 - T 2 ,
constitute an AP/GP. nth term of the series is determined & the sum to n terms of the sequence can
easily be obtained.
Remember that to find the sum of n terms of a series each term of which is composed of r factors in
AP, the first factors of several terms being in the same AP, we "write down the nth term, affix the next
factor at the end, divide by the number of factors thus increased and by the common difference and add
a constant. Determine the value of the constant by applying the initial conditions".

EQUATION OF A CIRCLE IN VARIOUS FORM :


(a)
The circle with centre (h, k) & radius 'r' has the equation;
(x-h) 2 + ( y - k ) 2 =r 2 .
(b)
The general equation of a circle is x2 + y2 + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0 with centre as :
(-g, -f) & radius = ^ g 2 + f 2 - c .
Remember that every second degree equation in x & y in which coefficient of
x2 = coefficient of y2 & there is no xy term always represents a circle.
If
g2 + f 2 - c > 0 =>
real circle.
2
2
g + f - c = 0 =>
point circle.
2
2
g + f - c < 0 =>
imaginary circle.
Note that the general equation of a circle contains three arbitrary constant s, g, f & c which corresponds
to the fact that a unique circle passes through three non collinear points.
(c)
The equation of circle with (x,, y}) &
, y2) as its diameter is :
( X - X l ) ( x - x ^ + ( y - y i ) ( y - y 2 ) = 0.

LINE & A CIRCLE:


Let L = 0 be a line & S = 0 be a circle. If r is the radius of the circle & p is the length of the
perpendicularfrom,the centre on the line, then:
(i)
p > r <=> the line does not meet the circle i. e. passes out side the circle.
(ii)
p = r o the line touches the circle.
(iii)
p < r o the line is a secant of the circle.
(iv)
p = 0 => the line is a diameter of the circle.

Transverse common tangents meet at a point which divides the line joining centre of circles
internally in the ratio of their radii.
RADICAL AXIS & RADICAL CENTRE :
The radical axis of two circles is the locus of points whose powers w.r.t. the two circles are equal. The
equation of radical axis of the two circles S j = 0 & S2 = 0 is given;
S 1 - S 2 = 0 i.e. 2 ( g 1 - g 2 ) x + 2 ( f 1 - f 2 ) y + (c 1 -c 2 ) = 0.
NOTE THAT:
If two circles intersect, then the radical axis is the common chord of the two circles.
If two circles touch each other then the radical axis is the common tangent of the two circles at
the common point of contact.
Radical axis is always perpendicular to the line joining the centres of the two circles.
Radical axis need not always pass through the mid point of the line joining the centres of the two
circles.
Radical axis bisects a common tangent between the two circles.
The common point of intersection of the radical axes of three circles taken two at a time is
called the radical centre of three circles.
A system of circles, every two which have the same radical axis, is called a coaxal system.
Pairs of circles which do not have radical axis are concentric.
ORTHOGONALITY OFTWO CIRCLES:
Two circles St = 0 & S 2 =0 are said to be orthogonal or said to intersect orthogonally if the tangents
at their point of intersection include a right angle. The condition for two circles to be orthogonal
is : 2 g[ g2 + 2 f j f 2 = Ci + C2 .

Note :
(a)
Locus of the centre of a variable circle orthogonal to twofixedcircles is the radical axis between the
twofixedcircles.
(b) . If two circles are orthogonal, then the polar of a point 'P' onfirstcircle w.r.t. the second circle passes
through the point Q which is the other end of the diameter through P . Hence locus of a point which

This theorem can be proved by Induction .


OBSERVATIONS :
(i)
The number of terms in the expansion is (n + 1) i.e. one or more than the index.
(ii)
The sum of the indices of x & y in each term is n .
(iii)
The binomial coefficients of the terms n C 0 , nC j.... equid istant from the beginning and the end are
equal.

BINOMIAL THEOREM FOR NEGATIVE OR FRACTIONAL INDICES :

I f n e Q , then (1 +x)n= l + nx + ^-x
^
-x +

.. ,,
G
. O Provided | x | < 1.

Note :
(i)
When the index n is a positive integer the number of terms in the expansion of
(1 +x) n is finite i.e. (n+ 1) & the coefficient of successive terms are :
np np np np
np
M> 2' 3
n
(ii)
When the index is other than a positive integer such as negative integer or fraction, the number of
terms in the expansion of (1 +x) n is infinite and the symbol nCr cannot be used to denote the
Coefficient of the general term.
(iii)

Following expansion should be remembered (| x | < 1).


(a) (1 +X)"1 = 1 - x + x 2 - x 3 + x 4 -.... oo (b) (1 - x ) - 1 ^ 1 + x + x2 + x3 + x 4 +.... oo
(c) (1 + x)~2 = 1 - 2 X + 3 X 2 - 4 X 3 + . . . . oo
(d) (1 -x)~ 2 = 1 + 2 X + 3X 2 +4X 3 +
oo

(iv)

The expansions in ascending powers of x are only valid if x is 'small'. If x is large i.e. | x | > 1 then

6.

we may find it convinient to expand in powers of ,


X which then will be small.
APPROXIMATIONS :
(1 +x) n = 1 +nx+

- 1 ) ( n - 2 ) x3
1.2
1.2.3
If x < 1, the terms of the above expansion go on decreasing and if x be very small, a stage may be
reached when we may neglect the terms containing higher powers of x in the expansion. Thus, if x be
so small that its squares and higher powers may be neglected then (1 + x)n = 1 + nx, approximately.
This is an approximate value of (1 +x)n.

GENERAL DEFINITION

If to every value (Considered as real unless other-wise stated) of a variable x, which belongs to some
collection (Set) E, there corresponds one and only onefinitevalue ofthe quantity y, then y is said to be
a function (Single valued) of x or a dependent variable defined on the set E ; x is the argument or
independent variable.
If to every value of x belonging to some set E there corresponds one or several values of the variable y,
then y is called a multiple valued function of x defined on E.Conventionally the word " F U N C T I O N " is
used only as the meaning of a single valued function, if not otherwise stated.
{
}
f(x)=y
Pictorially: x > f

and

FUNCTION:

Let f: A-B,then the set Ais known as the domain of f&the set B is known as co-domain off.
The set of all f images of elements of A is known as the range of f . Thus :
Domain of f = {a | a e A, (a, f(a)) e f}
Range of f = (f(a) | a e A, f(a) e B}
It should be noted that range is a subset of co-domain. If only the rule offunction is given then the domain of
the function is the set of those real numbers, where function is defined. For a continuous function, the interval
from minimum to maximum value of a function gives the range.

IMPORTANT TYPES OF FUNCTIONS

(i)

POLYNOMIAL FUNCTION :

If a function f is defined by f (x) = aQxn+ a, xn_1+a,xn_2+... + an l x + an where n is a non negative integer


and a0, a p a2,..., an are real numbers and a0 ^ 0, then f is called a polynomial function of degree n.
NOTE : (a)
A polynomial of degree one with no constant term is called an odd linear
function, i.e. f(x) - ax, a^O
(b)

(ii)

There are two polynomial functions, satisfying the relation;


f^x).f(l/x) = f(x) + f(l/x). They are :
(i) f(x) = xn + 1
&
(ii) f(x) = 1 xn , where n is a positive integer.

ALGEBRAIC FUNCTION

y is an algebraic function ofx, ifit is a function that satisfies an algebraic equation ofthe form
P0 (x) yn + Pj (x) yn_1 +
+ Pr l (x) y + Pn (x) = 0 Where n is a positive integer and
P0 (x), P; (x)
are Polynomials in x.
e.g. y = | x | is an algebraic function, since it satisfies the equation y2 - x 2 =0.
Note that all polynomial functions are Algebraic but not the converse. A function that is not algebraic is
called TRANSCEDENTAL FUNCTION .
(iii)

FRACTIONAL RATIONAL FUNCTION

A rational function is a function of the form, y = f (x)

g(x)

A function f(x) = a = e (a > 0, a * 1, x e R) is called an exponential function. The inverse of the


exponential function is called the logarithmic function. i.e. g(x) = logax.
Note that f(x) & g(x) are inverse of each other & their graphs are as shown.

g(x) = l o g t x

(V)

ABSOLUTE VALUE FUNCTION

A function y=f (x) = |x| is called the absolute value function or Modulus function. It is defined as
: y= |x|

(Vi)

"x if x > 0
- x if x < 0

SIGNUM FUNCTION

A function y= f (x) = Sgn (x) is defined as follows:


y = f(x)

y y = 1 if x>0

" 1 for x > 0


0 for x = 0
- 1 for x < 0

0
y = -1 if x < 0

It is also written as Sgn x = |x|/ x ;

EQUAL OR IDENTICAL FUNCTION :


Two functions f & g are said to be equal if:
The domain of f = the domain of g.
The range of f = the range of g
and
f(x) = g(x) , for every x belonging to their common domain, eg.
1
x
f(x) = & g(x) = 2 are identical functions .

CLASSIFICATION OF FUNCTIONS :
One-One Function (Injective mapping):
A function f: A-^Bis said to be a one-one function or injective mapping if different elements of A
have different f images in B . Thus for x p x2 e A& f(Xj),
f(x2) e B, f(x,) = f(x2) <=> x, = x, or x, * x2 o f(x,) * f(x2).
Diagramatically an injective mapping can be shown as
A

Note : (i)

Any function which is entirely increasing or decreasing in whole domain, then


f(x) is one-one.
(ii)
If any line parallel to x-axis cuts the graph of the function atmost at one point,
then the function is one-one.
Many-one function:
Afunction f: A>B is said to be a many one function iftwo or more elements ofA have the same
f image in B . Thus f: A- B is many one if for ; x p x 2 e A, f(Xj) = f(x2) but x] ^ x2 .
Diagramatically a many one mapping can be shown as
A

Note : (i)
(ii)

Any continuous function which has atleast one local maximum or local minimum, then f(x) is
many-one. In other words, if a line parallel to x-axis cuts the graph ofthe function atleast
at two points, then f is many-one.
If a function is one-one, it cannot be many-one and vice versa.

Onto function (Surjective mapping):


If the function f: A B is such that each element in B (co-domain) is the f image of atleast one element
inA then we say that fis a function ofA'onto'B . Thus f : A ^ B i s suijective iff V b e B, 3 some
a e A such that f (a) = b .
Diagramatically surjective mapping can be shown as
A

<!jBansal Classes

Functions &

Trig.-IV

[6]

Into function:
If f: A - B is such that there exists atleast one element in co-domain which is not the image of any
element in domain, then f(x) is into.
Diagramatically into function can be shown as
B

B
OR

Note that: If a function is onto, it cannot be into and vice versa. A polynomial of degree even will
always be into.
Thus a function can be one of these four types :
(a)

one-one onto (inj ective & suij ective)

(b)

one-one into (injective but not surjective)

(c)

many-one onto (suij ective but not inj ective)

(d)

many-one into (neither suij ective nor injective)

Note : (i)
(ii)

If f is both injective & surjective, then it is called a Bijective mapping.


The bijective functions are also named as invertible, non singular or biuniform functions,
If a set A contains n distinct elements then the number of different functions defined from
A A is nn & out of it n! are one one.

Identity function:
The function f: A - A defined by f(x) = x V x e Ais called the identity ofA and is denoted by IA.
It is easy to observe that identity function is a bijection.
Constant function:
A function f: A> B is said to be a constant function if every element ofA has the same f image inB .
Thus f: A B ; f(x) = c, V x e A, c e B is a constant function. Note that the range of a constant
function is a singleton and a constant function may be one-one or many-one, onto or into .

ALGEBRAIC OPERATIONS ON FUNCTIONS :


If f & g are real valued functions of x with domain set A, B respectively, then both f & g are defined in
A n B. Now we define f+ g, f - g, (f. g) & (f/g) as follows :
(i)
(fg)(x) = f(x)g(x)

COMPOSITE OF UNIFORMLY & NON-UNIFORMLY DEFINED FUNCTIONS :

Let f : A B & g : B C be two functions . Then the function gof: A


C defined by
(gof) (x) = g (f(x)) V x e A is called the composite of the two functions f & g.
f(x)
x
Diagramatically
+ g(f(x)).
Thus the image of every x e A under the function gof is the g-image of the f-image of x.
Note that gof is defined only if V x e A , f(x) is an element of the domain of g so that we can take its
g-image. Hence for the product gof oftwo functions f & g, the range of f must be a subset ofthe domain
ofg.
PROPERTIES O F COMPOSITE FUNCTIONS :

(i)
(ii)
(iii)
9.

The composite of functions is not commutative i. e. gof ^ fog.


The composite offunctions is associative i.e. if f, g, h are three functions such that fo (goh) &
(fog) oh are defined, then fo(goh) = (fog) oh.
The composite of two bijections is a bijection i.e. if f & g are two bijections such that gof is
defined, then gof is also a bijection.

HOMOGENEOUS

FUNCTIONS:

A function is said to be homogeneous with respect to any set of variables when each of its terms
is of the same degree with respect to those variables .
For example 5 x2 + 3 y2 - xy is homogeneous in x & y. Symbolically if,
f(tx, ty) = t n . f(x, y) then f(x, y) is homogeneous function of degree n.
10.

BOUNDED FUNCTION:

A function is said to be bounded if | f(x) | < M, where M is afinitequantity.


11.

IMPLICIT & EXPLICIT FUNCTION :

A function defined by an equation not solved for the dependent variable is called an
3
3
IMPLICIT FUNCTION . For eg. the equation x + y = 1 defines y as an implicit function. If y has been
expressed in terms of x alone then it is called an EXPLICIT FUNCTION.
12.

INVERSE OF A FUNCTION :

Let f: A-B be a one-one & onto function, then their exists a unique function
g: B A such that f(x) = y o g(y)=x, V x e A & y e B . Then g is said to be inverse of f. Thus
g = f-i; B ->A= {(f(x), x) | (x, f(x)) f} .
PROPERTIES O F LNVERSE FUNCTION :

(i)
(ii)

The inverse of a bij ection is unique.


If f: A B is a bijection & g : B -> Ais the inverse of f, then fog = IB and
gof = I A , where I & IB are identity functions on the sets A & B respectively.
Note that the graphs of f & g are the mirror images of each other in the
line y = x. As shown in thefiguregiven below a point (x ',y') corresponding to y = x2 (x >0)
changes to (y ',x') corresponding to y=+Vx , the changed form of x = 1/y .

fig. l

(iii)
(iv)

fig. 2

fig. 3

The inverse of a bijection is also a bijection.


If f & g are two bijections f : A B, g : B - ^ C then the inverse of gof exists and
(gof)-1 = f o g " 1 . "

ODD & EVEN FUNCTIONS :

If f (-x) = f (x) for all x in the domain o f f then f is said to be an even function,
e.g. f (x) = cos x ; g (x) = x2 + 3 .
If f (-x) = - f (x) for all x in the domain o f f then f is said to be an odd function,
e.g. f (x) = sin x ; g (x) = x 3 +x .
NOTE

: (a)
f (x) - f (-x) = 0 => f (x) is even & f (x) + f (-x) = 0 = > f (x) is odd .
(b)
A function may neither be odd nor even.
(c)
Inverse of an even function is not defined .
(d)
Every even function is symmetric about the y-axis & every odd function is
symmetric about the origin.
(e)

Every function can be expressed as the sum of an even & an odd function.

e^f(x)=f(x)+f(-x)

EVEN

(f)
(g)
14.

-f(-x)

ODD

The only function which is defined on the entire number line & is even and odd at the same time
is f(x) = 0.
If f and g both are even or both are odd then the function f.g will be even but if any one of
them is odd then f.g will be odd.

PERIODIC FUNCTION:

A function f(x)is called periodic if there exists a positive number T(T>0) called the period ofthe
function such that f(x+T) = f(x), for all values of x within the domain of x.
e.g. The function sin x & cos x both are periodic over 2% & tan x is periodic over n.
NOTE : (a)
f (T) = f (0) = f (-T), where'T' is the period.
(b)
Inverse of a periodic function does not exist.
(c)
Every constant function is always periodic, with no fundamental period.
(d)
If f(x) has a period T & g(x) also has a period T then it does not mean that
f(x)+g(x) must have a period T. e.g. f(x) = [ sinx j + | cosx |.
(e)
(f)
15.

If f(x) has a period p, then -j and i/f(x) also has a period p .


t (x)
if f(x) has a period T then f(ax + b) has a period T/a (a > 0) .

GENERAL:

If x, y are independent variables, then:


(i)
f(xy) = f(x) + f(y)
f(x) = k In x or f(x) = 0 .
(ii)
f(xy) = f(x). f(y)
f(x) = x n , n e R
(iii)
f(x+y) = f(x) . fly) => f(x) = a"*.

In many kinds oftrignometric calculation, as in the solution oftriangles, we often require the logarithms of
trignometrical ratios. To avoid the trouble and inconvenience ofprinting the proper sign to the logarithms
ofthe trignometric functions, the logarithms as tabulated are not the true logarithms, but the true logarithms
increased by 10. The symbol L is used to denote these "tabular logarithms". Thus:
L sin 15 25' = 10 + log10 sin 15 25'
and
L tan 48 23'= 10 + log 10 tan48 23'

TYPES OF TRIGONOMETRIC EQUATIONS :
(a)

Solutions of equations by factorising. Consider the equation ;


(2 sinx - cosx) (1 + cosx) = sin2x ; cotx - cosx = 1 - cotx cosx

(b)

Solutions of equations reducible to quadratic equations . Consider the equation :


3 cos 2 x- 10 cosx+ 3 = 0 and 2 shfo + -Js sinx + 1 = 0

(c)
(d)

(e)

(f)

Solving equations by introducing an Auxilliary argument. Consider the equation :


sinx + cosx = ^[2 ; V3 cosx + sinx = 2 ; secx- 1 =(V2 - l)tanx
Solving equations by Transforming a sum of Trigonometric functions into a product.
Consider the example : cos 3 x + sin 2 x - sin 4 x = 0 ;
sin2x + sin22x + sin23x + sin24x = 2; sinx + sin5x = sin2x + sin4x

Solving equations by a change of variable :
(i)
Equations of the form of a. sinx + b. cosx + d = 0, where a, b & d are real
numbers & a, b ^ 0 can be solved by changing sinx& cos x into their corresponding
tangent of half the angle. Consider the equation 3 cosx + 4 sinx = 5.

CONCEPTS

DEFINITION:

Complex numbers are defmited as expressions of the form a + ib where a, b e R & i = /+L. It is
denoted by z i.e. z = a + ib. 'a' is called as real part of z (Re z) and 'b' is called as imaginary part of
z (Im z).
EVERY COMPLEX NUMBER CAN B E REGARDED A S

Purely real
if b = 0

Purely imaginary
if a = 0

Imaginary
ifb*0

Note :
(a)
The set R of real numbers is a proper subset ofthe Complex Numbers. Hence the Complete Number
system is N c W c I c Q c R c C.
(b)

Zero is both purely real as well as purely imaginary but not imaginary.

(c)

i= ^/-l is called the imaginary unit. Also i2 = - l ; i3 = - i ; i 4 = l etc.

(d)

Va Vb = ^rab only if atleast one of either a or b is non-negative.

2.

CONJUGATE COMPLEX:
If z = a + ib then its conjugate complex is obtained by changing the sign of its imaginary part &
is denoted by z . i.e. z = a - ib.
Note that :
(i)
z + z = 2Re(z)
(ii)
z - z = 2ilm(z)
(iii)
z z = a 2 + b2 which is real
(iv)
If z lies in the 1st quadrant then z lies in the 4th quadrant and - z lies in the 2nd quadrant.
3.

ALGEBRAIC OPERATIONS :
The algebraic operations on complex numbers are similiar to those on real numbers treating i as a
polynomial. Inequalities in complex numbers are not defined. There is no validity if we say that complex
number is positive or negative,
e.g. z > 0, 4 + 2i < 2 + 4 i are meaningless .
However in real numbers if a2 + b2 = 0 then a = 0 = b but in complex numbers,
Z;2 + z22 = 0 does not imply z, = z2 = 0.

4.

EQUALITY IN COMPLEX NUMBER:


Two complex numbers ^a, + ib, &. z7 = a 2 +ib 2 are equal if and only if their real & imaginary
pails coincide.

5.

REPRESENTATION OF A COMPLEX NUMBER IN VARIOUS FORMS :

(a)

Cartesian Form (Geometric Representation):


Every complex number z = x + i y can be represented by a point on
the cartesian plane known as complex plane (Argand diagram ) by the
ordered pair(x,y).
length OP is called modulus ofthe complex number denoted by | z | &
9 is called the argument or amplitude.
eg. | z | = Vx^Ty5" &
9 = tan t' ? (angle made by OP with positive x-axis)

then 2 rnt + 9 ; n e l will also be the argument of that complex number. Any two arguments of a
complex number differ by 2nn.

(iii)

The unique value of 9 such that - n < 9 < n is called the principal value of the argument.

(iv)

Unless otherwise stated, amp z implies principal value of the argument.

(v)

By specifying the modulus & argument a complex number is defined completely. For the complex number
0 + 0 i the argument is not defined and this is the only complex number which is given by its modulus.

(vi)

There exists a one-one correspondence between the points of the plane and the members of the set of
complex numbers.

CONCEPTS

1.

CONIC SECTIONS:

A conic section, or conic is the locus of a point which moves in a plane so that its distance from a fixed
point is in a constant ratio to its perpendicular distance from a fixed straight line.
The fixed point is called the Focus.
Thefixedstraight line is called the DIRECTRIX.
The constant ratio is called the ECCENTRICITY denoted by e.
The line passing through the focus & perpendicular to the directrix is called the Axis.
A point of intersection of a conic with its axis is called a VERTEX.

2.

GENERAL EQUATION OF A CONIC: FOCAL DIRECTRIX

PROPERTY:

The general equation of a conic with focus (p, q) & directrix Ix + my + n = 0 is :


(I2 + m2) [(x - p)2 + (y - q)2] = e2 (Ix + my + n)2 = ax2 + 2hxy +"by2 + 2gx + 2fy + c = 0
3.

DISTINGUISHING BETWEEN THE CONIC :

The nature of the conic section depends upon the position of the focus S w.r.t. the directrix & also upon
the value of the eccentricity e. Two different cases arise.
CASE ( I ) : W H E N T H E Focus L I E S O N T H E DIRECTRIX.
In this case D = abc + 2fgh - af2 - bg2 - ch2 - 0 & the general equation of a conic represents a pair of
straight lines if:
e > 1 the lines will be real & distinct intersecting at S.
e = 1 the lines will coincident,
e < 1 the lines will be imaginary.

PARABOLA : DEFINITION:

A parabola is the locus of a point which moves in a plane, such that its distancefromafixedpoint (focus)
is equal to its perpendicular distancefromafixedstraight line (directrix).
Standard equation of a parabola is y2 = 4ax. For this parabola:
(i) Vertex is (0,0)

(ii) focus is (a, 0)

(iii)Axisisy=0 (iv) Directrix is x + a = 0

FOCAL DISTANCE:

The distance of a point on the parabola from the focus is called the FOCAL DISTANCE O F T H E
FOCAL CHORD

A chord of the parabola, which passes through the focus is called a FOCAL
DOUBLE

CHORD.

ORDINATE:

A chord of the parabola perpendicular to the axis of the symmetry is called a DOUBLE
LATUS

POINT.

ORDINATE.

RECTUM:

A double ordinate passing through the focus or a focal chord perpendicular to the axis of parabola is

IMPORTANT HIGHLIGHTS

(a)

If the tangent & normal at any point 'P' of the parabola intersect the axis at T & G then
ST = SG = SP where 'S' is the focus. In other words the tangent and the normal at a point P on the
parabola are the bisectors of the angle between the focal radius SP & the perpendicular from P on the
directrix. From this we conclude that all rays emanating from S will become parallel to the axis of the
parabola after reflection.
The portion of a tangent to a parabola cut off between the directrix & the curve subtends a right angle at
the focus.
The tangents at the extremities of a focal chord intersect at right angles on the directrix, and hence a
circle on any focal chord as diameter touches the directrix. Also a circle on any focal radii ofa point P
(at2,2at) as diameter touches the tangent at the vertex and intercepts a chord of length a^i + t2 on a
normal at the point P.

axis i.e. ||PS | - |PS' 11 = 2a. The distance SS' = focal length.
CONJUGATE HYPERBOLA:
Two hyperbolas such that transverse & conjugate axes of one hyperbola are respectively the conjugate
& the transverse axes of the other are called CONJUGATE HYPERBOLAS of each other.

Two hyperbolas are said to be similiar if they have the same eccentricity.

RECTANGULAR OR EQUILATERAL HYPERBOLA:

The particular kind of hyperbola in which the lengths of the transverse & conjugate axis are equal is
called an EQUILATERAL HYPERBOLA. Note that the eccentricity of the rectangular hyperbola is -fl and
the length of its latus rectum is equal to its transverse or conjugate axis.

Since the fundamental equation to the hyperbola only differs from that to the ellipse in having

DIRECTOR

CIRCLE:

The locus of the intersection of tangents which are at right angles is known as the DIRECTOR CIRCLE of
the hyperbola. The equation to the director circle is:
x2 + y2 = a2 - b2.
Ifb 2 <a 2 this circle is real; ifb 2 =a 2 the radius ofthe circle is zero & it reduces to a point circle at the origin.
In this case the centre is the only pointfromwhich the tangents at right angles can be drawn to the curve.
If b2 > a2, the radius of the circle is imaginary, so that there is no such circle & so no tangents at right
angle can be drawn to the curve.

Definition: If the length of the perpendicular let fallfroma point on a hyperbola to a straight line tends
to zero as the point on the hyperbola moves to infinity along the hyperbola, then the straight line is called

Hence a determinant of order two will have "4 minors" & a determinant of order three will have
"9 minors".
COFACTOR :
If Mjj represents the minor of some typical element then the cofactor is defined as :
Cy = (-1 )1+J. Mjj ; Where i & j denotes the row & column in which the particular element lies. Note
that the value of a determinant of order three in terms of 'Minor' & 'Cofactor' can be written as :

D & D' are transpose of each other . If D' = - D then it is S K E W SYMMETRIC determinant but
D' = D => 2D = 0 => D = 0 => Skew symmetric determinant of third order has the value zero.
P - 2 : If any two rows (or columns) of a determinant be interchanged, the value of determinant is
changed in sign only. e.g.

P - 6: The value of a determinant is not altered by adding to the elements of any row (or column) the
same multiples of the corresponding elements of any other row
(or column), e.g. Let D =

AJ+MA,

D' =

Then D ' = D

Note : that while applying this property ATLEAST ONE ROW (OR COLUMN) must remain

KEY CONCEPTS
THINGS T o REMEMBER :

LOGARITHM OF A NUMBER :
The logarithm of the number N to the base 'a' is the exponent indicating
the power to which the base 'a' must be raised to obtain the number N.
This number is designated as logaN.
x

Hence:

log N = x <=> a = N

,a>0,a*l&N>0

REMEMBER

log, 0 2 = 0.3010

logI03 = 0.47 71
In 2 = 0.693

In 10 = 2.303
If a= 10, then we write logb rather than log10b .
If a = e, we write In b rather than loge b .
The existence and uniqueness of the number logaN follows from the properties of an experimental
functions .
From the definition of the logarithm of the number N to the base 'a', we have an
identity:

log a N

=N

a>0 , a*1 & N>0

This is known as the FUNDAMENTAL LOGARITHMIC


N O T E :log a l=0
(a>0 , a * l )
log a a=l
( a > 0 , a*l)and
log1/aa = - l (a > 0 , a * 1)

IDENTITY .

THE PRINCIPAL PROPERTIES OF LOGARITHMS :


Let M & N are arbitrary posiitive numbers, a > 0 , a ^ l , b > 0 , b ^ l and a is any real number
then ;
loga(M/N) = logaM - logaN

If 0 < a < 1 then log a x<p

If 0 < a < 1 then log. x > p

NOTETHAT:

If the number & the base are on one side ofthe unity, then the logarithm is positive; If the number &
the base are on different sides of unity, then the logarithm is negative.
The base of the logarithm 'a' must not equal unity otherwise numbers not equal to unity will not have
a logarithm & any number will be the logarithm of unity.

DERIVABILITY OVER A N INTERVAL:

(ii)

f (x) is said to be derivable over an interval ifit is derivable at each & every point ofthe interval f(x) is sai
to be derivable over the closed interval [a, b] if :
for the points a and b, f'(a+) & f'(b - ) exist &
for any point c such that a < c < b, f '(c+) & f (c - ) exist & are equal.

NOTE

1.

If f(x) & g(x) are derivable at x = a then the functions f(x) + g(x), f(x) - g(x) , f(x).g(;
will also* be derivable at x = a & if g (a) * 0 then the function f(x)/g(x) will also be derivable at x = a.
If f(x) is differentiable at x = a & g(x) is not differentiable at x = a, then the product function F(x)=f(:
g(x) can still be differentiable at x = a e.g. f(x) = x & g(x) = | x |.
If f(x) & g(x) both are not differentiable at x = a then the product function;
F(x) = f(x)- g(x) can still be differentiable at x = a e.g. f(x) = | x | & g(x) = | x |.
If f(x) & g(x) both are non-deri. at x = a then the sum function F(x) = f(x)+g(x) may be a differential
function, e.g. f(x) = | x | & g(x)=-1 x |

C. The
tat the

A standard deck of playing cards has 52 cards. There are four suit (clubs, diamonds, hearts and spades),
each of which has thirteen numbered cards (2, ,9,10, Jack, Queen, King, Ace)
In a game of card, each card is worth an amount of points. Each numbered card is worth its number (e.g.
a 5 is worth 5 points); the Jack, Queen and King are each worth 10 points; and the Ace is either worth
your choice of either 1 point or 11 points. The object of the game is to have more points in your set of cards
than your opponent without going over 21. Any set of cards with sum greater than 21 automatically loses.

that
m is 5.

Here's how the game played. You and your opponent are each dealt two cards. Usually the first card for
each player is dealt face down, and the second.card for each player is dealt face up. After the initial cards
are dealt, the first player has the option of asking for another card or not taking any cards. The first
player can keep asking for more cards until either he or she goes over 21, in which case the player loses,
or stops at some number less than or equal to 21. When the first player stops at some number less than
or equal to 21, the second player then can take more cards until matching or exceeding the first player's
number without going over 21, in which case the second player wins, or until going over 21, in which
case the first player wins.
We are going to simplify the game a little and assume that all cards are dealt face up, so that all cards are
visible. Assume your opponent is dealt cards and plays first.

If the occurence of one event affects the probability ofthe occurence ofthe other event then the events

TANGENT & NORMAL


THINGS TO REMEMBER:
I
The value of the derivative at P (Xj, y{) gives the
slope of the tangent to the curve at P. Symbolically
= Slope of tangent at
iyi
P(x1y1) = m(say).
Jx

Equation of tangent at (x p y^ is;


dy

HI

(X-XJ).

*iyi
Equation of normal at(x1,y1) is;

Length of I
Subnormal

dy
dx xi yi
NOTE:
1.
The point P (Xj, y,) will satisfy the equation of the curve & the equation of tangent & normal line.
2.
If the tangent at any point P on the curve is parallel to the axis of x then dy/dx = 0 at the point P.
If the tangent at any point on the curve is parallel to the axis of y, then dy/dx = oo or dx/dy=0.
3.
If the tangent at any point on the curve is equally inclined to both the axes then dy/dx= 1.
4.
If the tangent at any point makes equal intercept on the coordinate axes then dy/dx=-1.
5.
Tangent to a curve at the point P (Xj, y^ can be drawn even through dy/dx at P does not exist,
6.
e.g. x = 0 is a tangent to y = x2/3 at (0,0).
7.
If a curve passing through the origin be given by a rational integral algebraic equation, the equation ofthe
tangent (or tangents) at the origin is obtained by equating to zero the terms ofthe lowest degree in the equation,
e.g. If the equation of a curve be x2 - y2 + x3 + 3 x2 y - y3 = 0, the tangents at the origin are given by
x2 - y2 = 0 i.e. x + y = 0 and x - y = 0.
IV

Angle of intersection between two curves is defined as the angle between the 2 tangents drawn to the
2 curves at their point of intersection. If the angle between two curves is 90 eveiy where then they are
called ORTHOGONAL curves.

(a) Length of the tangent (PT) =

(c) Length of Normal (FN) = y, ^l + [f'(x,)f

(d) Length of Subnormal (MN) = y, f11 (x^

f(Xj)

DIFFERENTIALS:

The differential of a function is equal to its derivative multiplied by the differential of the independent
variable. Thus if, y=tan x then dy = sec2 x dx.
In general dy = f ' (x) d x.
Note that:
d (c) = 0 where 'c' is a constant.
d(u + v - w) = du + d v - d w
d(uv) = udv + v d u
Note

1.

2.

For the independent variable 'x', increment A x and differential d x are equal but this is not the case with
the dependent variable 'y' i.e. Ay * dy.
dy
The relation dy = f' (x) d x can be written as = f1' (x); thus the quotient of the differentials of'y' and
'x' is equal to the derivative of'y' w.r.t. 'x'.

MONOTONOCITY
(Significance of the sign of thefirstorder derivative)
DEFINITIONS:
1.
A function f (x) is called an Increasing Function at a point x=a if in a sufficiently small neighbourhood
around x=a we have

f (a + h)

> f (a) and

f (a - h)

< f (a)

Similarly decreasing if

f (a + h)

< f (a) and

f(a-h)

> f (a)

increasing;

disregards whether f is
non derivable or even
discontinuous at x = a

| decreasing.

A differentiable function is called increasing in an interval (a, b) if it is increasing at every point within the
interval (but not necessarily at the end points). A function decreasing in an interval
(a, b) is similarly defined.
A function which in a given interval is increasing or decreasing is called "Monotonic" in that interval.
Tests for increasing and decreasing of a function at a point:
If the derivative f'(x) is positive at a point x = a, then the function f (x) at this point is increasing. If it is
negative, then the function is decreasing. Even if f (a) is not defined, f can still be increasing or decreasing.

Note : If f'(a) = 0, then for x = athe function may be still increasing or it may be decreasing as shown. It has to
be identified by a seperate rule. e.g. f (x) = x3 is increasing at every point.
Note that, dy/dx = 3 x2.

Tests for Increasing & Decreasing of a function in an interval:


SUFFICIENCY TEST : If the derivative function f'(x) in an interval (a, b) is every where positive, then the
function f(x) in this interval is Increasing;
If f'(x) is every where negative, then f (x) is Decreasing.

General Note:
(1)
If a function is invertible it has to be either increasing or decreasing.
If
a function is continuous the intervals in which it rises and falls may be separated by points at which its
(2)
derivative fails to exist.
If f is increasing in [a, b] and is continuous then f (b) is the greatest and f (c) is the least value of f in [a,
(3)
b]. Similarly if f is decreasing in [a, b] then f (a) is the greatest value and f (b) is the least value.

ROLLE'S THEOREM:
Let f(x) be a function of x subject to the following conditions:
f(x) is a continuous function of x in the closed interval of a < x < b.
f' (x) exists for every point in the open interval a < x < b.
f(a) = f(b).
Then there exists at least one point x = c such that a < c < b where f' (c) = 0.
Note that if f is not continuous in closed [a, b] then it may lead to the adjacent
graph where all the 3 conditions of Rolles will be valid but the assertion will not
be true in (a, b).

LMVT THEOREM:
Let f(x) be a function of x subject to the following conditions:
f(x) is a continuous function of x in the closed interval of a < x < b.
f' (x) exists for every point in the open interval a < x < b,
f(a)*f(b).
Then there exists at least one point x = c such that a < c < b where f' (c) =

b- a
Geometrically, the slope of the secant line joining the curve at x = a & x = b is equal to the slope of the
tangent line drawn to the curve atx = c. Note the following:
"a.

Rolles theorem is a special case of LMVT since

b- a
Note : Now [f (b) - f (a)] is the change in the function f as x changes from a to b so that [f (b) - f (a)] / (b - a)
is the average rate ofchange of the function over the interval [a, b]. Also f'(c) is the actual rate of
change of the function for x = c. Thus, the theorem states that the average rate of change of a function
over an interval is also the actual rate of change ofthe function at some point of the interval. In particular,
for instance, the average velocity of a particle over an interval of time is equal to the velocity at some
instant belonging to the interval.
This interpretation of the theorem justifies the name "Mean Value" for the theorem.

A NECESSARY CONDITION FOR MAXIMUM & MINIMUM :


If f(x) is a maximum or minimum at x = c & iff' (c) exists then f' (c) = 0.
Note :
The set of values of x for which f' (x) = 0 are often called as stationary points or critical points. The rate
of change of function is zero at a stationary point.
In case f' (c) does not exist f(c) may be a maximum or a minimum & in this case left hand and right hand
derivatives are of opposite signs.
The greatest (global maxima) and the least (global minima) values of a function fin an interval [a, b] are
f(a) or f(b) or are given by the values of x for which f' (x) = 0.
dy
Critical points are those where = 0, if it exists, or it fails to exist either by virtue of a vertical tangent
dx
or by virtue of a geometrical sharp corner but not because of discontinuity of function.
SUFFICIENT CONDITION FOR EXTREME VALUES :

f'(c-h) > 0
=> x - c is a point of local maxima, where f' (c)=0.
h is a sufficiently

f'(c-h) < 0

Similarly

Note : Iff' (x) does not change sign i.e. has the same sign in a certain complete neighbourhood of c,
then f(x) is either strictly increasing or decreasing throughout this neighbourhood implying that f(c) is not
an extreme value of f.

USE OF SECOND ORDER DERIVATIVE IN ASCERTAINING THE MAXIMA OR MINIMA:


f(c) is a minimum value of the function f, if f' (c) = 0 & f" (c) > 0.
f(c) is a maximum value of the function f, f' (c) = 0 & f" (c) < 0.
Note : iff" (c) = 0 then the test fails. Revert back to thefirstorder derivative check for ascertaning the
maxima or minima.
SUMMARY-WORKING

RULE:

FIRST:

When possible, draw a figure to illustrate the problem & label those parts that are important in the
problem. Constants & variables should be clearly distinguished.
SECOND:

Write an equation for the quantity that is to be maximised or minimised. If this quantity is denoted by 'y',
it must be expressed in terms of a single independent variable x. his may require some algebraic
manipulations.
THIRD:

If y = f (x) is a quantity to be maximum or minimum, find those values of x for which


dy/dx = f'(x) = 0.
FOURTH:

Test each values of x for which f'(x) = 0 to determine whether it provides a maximum or minimum or
neither. The usual tests are:
(a)
If dVdx 2 is positive when dy/dx = 0 => y is minimum.
If dVdx 2 is negative when dy/dx = 0=>yis maximum.
If d^/dx 2 = 0 when dy/dx = 0, the test fails.
(b)

dy

positive

If is zero
dx

negative

for

x < x0

for x = xn
for

a maximum occurs at x = xQ.

x > x0

But if dy/dx changes signfromnegative to zero to positive as x advances through


x0 there is a minimum. If dy/dx does not change sign, neither a maximum nor a minimum. Such points are
called INFLECTION POINTS.
FIFTH:

If the function y = f (x) is defined for only a limited range of values a < x < b then examine x = a&
x = b for possible extreme values.
SIXTH:

Ifthe derivative fails to exist at some point, examine this point as possible maximum or minimum.
Important Note:
Given a fixed point A(xl5 yt) and a moving point P(x, f (x)) on the curve y=f(x). Then AP will be
maximum or minimum if it is normal to the curve at P.
If the sum of two positive numbers x and y is constant than their product is maximum ifthey are
equal,i.e. x + y = c , x > 0 , y > 0 , t h e n
xy= ^ [(x + y ) 2 - ( x - y ) 2 ]
6.

If the product of two positive numbers is constant then their sum is least if they are equal,
i.e. (x + y)2 = ( x - y)2 + 4xy

CONCEPTS

Mathematical logic is the science of reasoning. It is a process by which we arrive at a conclusion from
known statements or assertions with the use of valid assumption which is known as
Laws of Logic.
1.

Basic Concepts: A statement is a sentence which is either true of false but not both simultaneously.

2.

Truth value of statement: If a statement is true, we say that its truth value is TRUE or T and if it is false
we say that its truth value is FALSE or F.

3.

Compound statements: A statement is said to be simple, if it cannot be broken down into two or more
sentences. New statements that can be formed by combining two or more simple statements are called
sub-statements or component statements of the compound statements.

4.

The compound statement S consisting of sub statements p, q, r,


is denoted by S (p,q, r,..).
A fundamental property of a compound statements is that its truth value is completely determined by the
truth value of each of its sub statements together with the way in which they are connected to form the
compound statement.

5.

Basic logical connectives: The words which combine simple statements to form compound statements
are called connectives. To define a set of connectives with definite meanings in the language of logic is
called object language. Three basic connectives (logical) are

Truth table:
Let S(p, q, r) be a compound statement consisting of sub statements p, q, r,.... etc. A simple concise
way to show the relationship between the truth table of S and the truth values of its substatements
p, q, r,... etc. is by means of a table called the truth table for the statement S.

Tautologies and contradiction:


A statement is said to be tautology if it is true for all logical possibilities. Analogously a statement is said
to be a contradiction if it is false for all logical possibilities.
A straight forward method to determine whether a given statement is tautology (or contradiction) is to
construct its truth table. We denote tautology by T and contradiction by 'C'.
Logical equivalence:
Two statements S, (p, q, r,...) and S2 (p, q, r,....) are said to be logically equivalent, or simply equivalent
if they have the same truth values for all logical possibilities and denoted by
S, (p, q, r,...) = S2 (p, q, r,....)

Duality:
Two compound statements S, and S2 are said to be duals of each other if one can be obainedfromother
by replacing A by v and v by A . The connections A and v are called duals of each other.
Algebra of statements:
1.
Idempotent laws : If p is any statement then (a) p v p = p
(b) p A p = p
2.
Associative laws : If p, q and r are any three statements, then
(a) p v (q v r) = (p v q) v r
(b) p A (q A r) = (p A q) A r
3.
Commutative laws: If p and q are two statements, then
(a) p v q s q v p
(b) p A q = q A p
4.
Distributive Laws: If p, q and r are three statements then,
(a) p v (q A r) = (p v q) A (p v r)
(b) p A (q v r) S (p A q) v (p A r)

Identity laws: If p is any statement, t is tautology and c is contradiction, then


(a) p v t = t
(b) p A t = p
(c) p v c = p
(d) p A c = c
Complement laws: If t is tautology, c is a contradiction and p is any statement, then

There exists elements denoted by 0 and 1 in B. Such that for all x e B .


(a)
x+ 0= x
(0 is identity for +)
(b)
x. 1 = x
(1 is identity for.)

(VI)

For each x e B, there exists an element denoted by x', called the component or negation of x, in B such
that
(a)
x + x' = 1
(b)
x . x' = 0
(Complement law)
Here'+' and '.' are not ordinary addition and multiplication. These are simply operations.

x + (y. z) = (x + y).(x + z)
x . (y + z) = (x. y) + (x . z)

Important points:
1.

Boolean algebra is designated as (B,'+','.',"', 0,1) in order to emphasise it six parts, namely set B,
the two binary operations '+' and '.', the complement operation''' and the two special elements 0 and
1. The symbols 0 and 1 not necessarily represent the numbers zero and one but elements are called zero
elements and unit elements.

2.

For the set S of all logical statements, the operations v and A play the roles of'+'and'.'respectively.
The tautology t and the contradiction C play the roles of 1 and 0, and the operationplays the role
? 11

3.

For P(A), the set of all subsets of a set A, the operations u and n play the roles of '+' and'.', A and
(j) play the roles of 1 and 0, and complementation plays the role of " ' .

Boolean Algebra

[4]

Principal of duality:
The dual of any statement in a boolean algebra B is the statement obtained by interchanging the elements
0 and 1 in the original statement.
Concept of duality as defined in mathematical logic is same here, the only difference between the two is
of notations as '+' is used for v ,'.' is used for A , 0 is used for contradiction c and 1 used for the
tautology!:.
Principle of Duality: Dual of any theorem in Boolean algebra is also a theorem.
Theorem 1 :In a Boolean algebra 0 and the unit element 1 are unique.
Theorem 2: Let B be a Boolean algebra. Then for any x and y in b we have,
(a) x + x = x
(a') x. x = x
(b) x + 1 = 1
(b') x . 0 = 0
(c) x + (x.y) = x
(c) x. (x + y) = x
(d) 0' = 1
(d')l' = 0
(e)(x')' = x
(f)(x + y)' = x',y'

(f')(x.y)' = x'+y'

Note that a', b', c', d' and f ' are duals of a, b , c, d and f.
Arguments and their validity:
An argument is the assertion that statement S, follows from other statements, S,, S 2 , S 3 , ...Sn We
denote the argument by (S,, S 2 , S 3 ,.... ,S n ; S). The statement S is called the comclusion and the
statements S,, S 2 ,...., Sn are called hypothesis.
An argument consisting of the hypothesis S,, S 2 ,..., Sn and conclusion S is said to be valid if S is true
whenever all S.,
1 ' 2,....,
' S' nare true.

If we replace the words 'closed' and 'on' by the word 'True (or T)' and words 'open' and 'off by the
word 'False (or F)' then the tables becomes truth table for logical experiment p A q and p v q respectively.
In the language of logic we use symbols 1 and 0 to represent T and F.

These type of tables are called input/output tables with input as all possible values in bits of the switches
p, q etc. and output as the corresponding values in bits of their outcome.
We define the logical operations '+' and '.' on the set of bits {0,1} by
Operation
1+ 1 = 1
1+0 = 1
0+1 = 1
0+0=0

1.1 = 1
T A T=T
1.0 = 0
T A F=F
0.1=0
F A T=F
0.0 = 0
FA F=F

The NOT operation ',' on the set {0, 1} is defined by 0'= 1 as ~ F = T and 1' = 0 as ~T = F.
Definition 2:
Let {B, + , . , ' , 0 , 1 , } be a Boolean algebra and Xj, x 2 ,

(I)
0,1, Xj, x,,..., xn are all Boolean expression.
(II)
If x and y are Boolean expressions, then
(a)
x'
(b)
x + y(orx v y)
(c)
x . y (or x A y)

, xn are in B. Then Boolean expressions

are also Boolean expressions.


Note: We denote a Boolean expression X in x,, x 2 ,...., xn by X( x,, x 2 ,...., xn)
Definition 3:
Let X(x, , x 2 , ...., xn) be a boolean expression in , x 2 , ...,xn . Then a function f of the form
f(x,,x 7 ,...,x ) = X(x , X2, ..., X] ) is called a Boolean function.
Three basic gates :
Gates are circuits constructed using solid state devices, which are capable of switching voltage levels (
bits 0 and 1).
The input / output tables for these gates are similar to the truth tables of conjuction, discunjuction and
negation respectively with T = 1 and F = 0.

In the circuit (1):


In a circuit if the output S is uniquely defined for each combination of inputs x,, x2and x 3 . Such a circuit
is said to be combinatorial circuit or combinatorial circuit.
In the circuit (2):
We observe that if x, = 1 and x2 = 0 then the inputs to the AND gate are 1 and 0 and so the output of
the AND gate is 0 . Which is the input to the NOT gate which yields output 1 i.e.
S = 1. But the diagram states that x2 = S i.e. 0 = 1 a contradiction. Therefore we conclude that output S
is not uniquely defined. Such a circuit is not a combinational circuit.
Definition:
Two combinatorial circuits are equivalent if their input/output tables are identical.

CONCEPTS

DEFINITIONS:
A VECTOR

may be described as a quantity having both magnitude & direction. A vector is generally

represented by a directed line segment, say AB . A is called the initial point & B is called the terminal
point. The magnitude of vector AB is expressed by i AB !
a vector of zero magnitude i.e.which has the same initial & terminal point, is called a
ZERO VECTOR. It is denoted by O.
ZERO VECTOR

UNIT VECTOR

a vector of unit magnitude in direction of a vector a is called unit vector along a and is

denoted by a symbolically a=
two vectors are said to be equal if they have the same magnitude, direction & represent
the same physical quantity.
EQUAL VECTORS

two vectors are said to be collinear if their directed line segments are parallel
disregards to their direction. Collinear vectors are also called PARALLEL VECTORS. If they have the same
direction they are named as like vectors otherwise unlike vectors.
COLLINEAR VECTORS

Simbolically, two non zero vectors a and b are collinear if and only if, a=Kb ,
where K e R
COPLANAR VECTORS a given number of vectors are called coplanar if their line segments are all parallel
to the same plane. Note that "Two VECTORS A R E ALWAYS COPLANAR".

let O be a fixed origin, then the position vector of a point P is the vector OP If
a & b & position vectors of two point A and B, then ,

POSITION VECTOR

AB = b - a = pvofB - pvofA.
2.

VECTOR ADDITION

If two vectors a & b are represented by OA & OB , then their sum a + b is a vector represented
by OC , where OC is the diagonal of the parallelogram OACB.
a + b = b + a (commutative)
a + 0=a = 0 + a
3.

MULTIPLICATION

(a + b) + c = a + (b + c) (associativity)
a +(-a)=0 = (-a)+a

OF VECTOR

BY SCALARS

If a is a vector & m is a scalar, then m a is a vector parallel to a whose modulus is | m | times that of
a. This multiplication is called SCALAR MULTIPLICATION. If a & b are vectors & m, n are scalars, then:
m ( a ) = (a)m = ma
m ( n a ) = n ( m a ) = (mn )a
( m + n ) a = ma + na

SHORTEST DISTANCE BETWEEN TWO LINES :


If two lines in space intersect at a point, then obviously the shortest distance between them is zero. Lines
which do not intersect & are also not parallel are called SKEW LINES. For Skew lines the direction of
the shortest distance would be perpendicular to both the lines. The magnitude of the shortest distance
vector would be equal to that of the projection of AB along the direction of the line of shortest distance,

VECTOR TRIPLE PRODUCT :


Let a , b , c be any three vectors, then the expression a x ( b x c ) is a vector & is called a vector
triple product.
ax(bxc)

GEOMETRICAL INTERPRETATION OF

Consider the expression a x (bx c) which itself is a vector, since it is a cross product of two vectors
a & (b x c). Now a x ( b x c ) is a vector perpendicular to the plane containing a & (b x c) but b x c
is a vector perpendicular to the plane b & c , therefore a x (b x c) is a vector lies in the plane of
b&c

and perpendicular to a . Hence we can express ax ( b x c ) in terms of b & c

i.e. a* x (b x c) = xb + yc where x & y are scalars .


a x (b x c) = (a . c)b - (a . b)c

( a x b ) x c = ( a . c ) b - ( b . c)a
