ALGEBRA Most of the topics covered in JEE Maths syllabus are from algebra only. It would be really helpful for a JEE aspirant to revise and learn Algebraic Identities, Factorizations and Theorems.

We need to rationalize (x -y) which can be done by multiplying it with [ x”'y? + x"*y'+....+x°y""] (as mentioned in p1 above) 2 To rationalize (a? +5"); Let n be the LCM of p and q.
