GOODS AND SERVICES TAX (GST)
Revision Notes
1. GST is known as the Goods and Services Tax. It is an indirect tax which has replaced many indirect taxes in India
(such as the excise duty, VAT, services tax, etc. ...)
2. GST is a value added tax levied at every point of sale or transfer of goods.
It is collected by two ways.
At central level the following taxes are being charged.
Excise duty Additional excise duty
Service tax Custom duty
At state level the following taxes are being collected:
Sales tax Entertainment tax
Central tax (levied by centre and collected by state) Octroi and entry tax
Purchase tax Luxury tax
Taxes on lottery, betting and gambling.
3. It is paid by consumers, but remitted to the government by the businesses selling the goods and services.
All the indirect taxes (near about 17) are merged into a tax is called GST. Till now also the direct tax is collected in
same way as before.
The direct taxes are:-Income tax, property tax, corporation tax, inheritance tax, gift tax, wealth tax etc.
The indirect taxes are:-Custom duty, excise duty, sale tax, VAT, service tax etc.
4. There are four main types of GST as follows:
(i) Central Goods and Services Tax (CGST)
(ii) State Goods and Services Tax (SGST)
(iii) Integrated Goods and Services Tax (IGST)
(iv) Union Territory Goods and Services Tax (UTGST)
5. Intra-state means: Sale of the goods and services with in the same state.
6. Inter-state means: Sale of the goods and services, from one state to another state.
7. GST is calculated on sale price obtained after deducting discount or adding the profit, if any, from the list price.
8. In case of intra-state sale of goods/services, or both:
If GST rate is 18%, then
CGST = 9% of Sale price, SGST = 9% of Sale price
IGST = 0
9. In case of inter-state of goods or services or both:
If GST rate is 18%, then
IGST = 18% of Sale price
10. Discount is never allowed on amount including GST.
For example: Mr. Naresh is a manufacturer in Agra (U.P.) who sold goods worth ` 10,000 to Mr. Dinkar in Delhi.
We see here, it is an interstate transaction, therefore IGST will be applicable here.
\ IGST = 18% of sale price
Now IGST will be charged by the central Government
18
=` × 10 , 000
100
= ` 1800
Hence, the cost of the product = ` (10,000 + 1800)
= ` 11,800

Key Terms
1. Cost Price: It is the price at which goods are or have been bought by a merchant or retailer or a dealer.
2. List Price: It is the price at which the product is marked. It it also known as Marked Price (MP). or Printed Price.
3. Discount: When shopkeeper’s offer to sale out old stocks with certain percentage of least price, then it is termed
as discount. It is always calculated on the list price. If the discount is given by the seller in successive manner then
it must be calculated successively. Never add all the discounts and solve them once.
4. Selling Price: It is the price at which a shopkeeper sells his products with some discount or profit. It is also called
the sale price(S.P.),
Selling Price = Marked Price – Discount
5. Tax = Rate of tax × sale price
6. By the Government, GST rates are 0%, 5%, 12%, 18% and 28% applicable. Out of which unpacked food 0%,
Common use 5%, Standard rate 12%, maximum goods 18% and luxury items 28%.

BANKING
Revision Notes
 Bank: It is a financial institution, where one can deposit the money and also able to get money in the form of loan.
 Bank Account: An arrangement made with a bank whereby one may deposit (Credit) and withdraw money
(Debit) and in some cases be paid interest.
 Different Types of Account:
1. Current Account 2. Savings Account
3. Fixed Deposit Account Recurring Deposit Account 4. Money Market Account
5. Individual Retirement Account
1. Current Account: A current account offers easy access to your money for your daily transactional needs and helps
keep your cash secure.
2. Savings Account: A saving account allows you to accumulate interest on funds you’ve saved for future needs.
Interest rates can be compounded on a daily, weekly, monthly, or annual basis.
3. Fixed Deposit Account: In this account an individual can deposit a certain amount for a certain period of time.
The interest is calculated as per the bank rules.
4. Recurring Deposit Account: This type of account is basically made for a small savings persons. The individual
person decides a certain amount to deposit in bank on monthly basis for a certain period of time. After the time
get over, the person gets both deposited amount with some extra amount paid by the bank as interest.

SHARES & DIVIDENDS
Revision Notes
 Shares: Total capital of the company is divided into small units of a fixed amount and each unit is called shares.
Share capital divided into shares the owners of which are known as members or shareholders.
 Dividend: A dividend is a distribution of a portion of a company’s total profit to a class of its shareholders which
is decided by the board of directors of the company.
 Nominal value/Face value/Par value: Face value is the price of the share at the time of its issue. It doesn’t change
over the time. It is also termed as Nominal value or Par value.
 Market Value: It is the price which is listed in the stock exchange or the price of share in the market.
 Issue of shares at premium: When the company issue its share at the amount which is more than its face value,
then the share is called at premium or above.
 Issue of Shares at Discount: When the company issue its share at a price which is less than its par value, it is
called at discount or below par.

LINEAR INEQUATIONS
Revision Notes
In an inequation, the signs >, <, ³ and £ are called signs of inequality.
Types of Inequality
(i) Numerical inequality: An inequality which does not involve any variable is called a numerical inequality.
e.g., 4 > 2, 8 < 21
(ii) Literal inequality: An inequality which has variables is called literal inequality.
e.g., x £ 7, y ³ 11, x – y £ –4
(iii) Strict inequality: An inequality which have only < or > is called strict inequality.
e.g., x < 9, x < 10, x > 7
(iv) Slack inequality: An inequality which have only ³ or £ is called slack inequality.
e.g., x ³ 5, y ³ 4, x £ 10
Linear Inequality

An inequality is said to be linear, if each variable occurs in first degree only and there is
no term involving the product of the variables.
e.g., ax + b £ 0, ax + by + c > 0, ax £ 4
Linear Inequality in One Variable
A linear inequality which has only one variable, is called linear inequality in one variable.
e.g., ax + b < 0, where a ¹ 0, 4c + 7 ³ 0
Quadratic Inequality in one variable
An inequality in one variable in which degree of variable is 2, is called quadratic inequality in one variable.
e.g., ax2 + bx + c ³ 0, 3x2 + 2x £ 0
Facts for Operation:
 On transposing a positive terms from one side of an inequation to its other side, the sign of the terms becomes
negative.
 On transposing a negative term from one side of an inequation to its other side, the sign of the term becomes positive.
 If each term of an inequation be multiplied or divided by the same positive number, the sign of inequality remains
the same.
 If each term of an inequation be multiplied or divided by the same negative number, the sign of inequality reversed.
 If sign of each term on both the sides of an inequation is changed, the sign of inequality gets reversed.

QUADRATIC EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE
Revision Notes
 A quadratic equation in the variable x is of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0, where a, b, c are real number and a ¹ 0.
 The value of x that satisfies an equation is called the solution or root of the equation.
 For the equation ax2 + bx + c = 0, a ¹ 0, expression b2 – 4ac is known as discriminant (D).
 A real number a is said to be a solution/root of the quadratic equation ax2 + bx + c = 0, if aa2 + ba + c = 0.
 A quadratic equation can be solved by the following algebraic methods :
(i) Splitting the middle term or Factorisation
(ii) Quadratic formula
 If ax2 + bx + c = 0, a ¹ 0 can be reduced to the product of two linear factors, then the roots of the quadratic
equation ax2 + bx + c = 0 can be found by equating each factor to zero.
 Method for splitting the middle term of the equation ax2 + bx + c = 0, where a ¹ 0.
(i) Find the product “ac”.
(ii) Find a pair of numbers b1 and b2 whose product is “ac”and whose sum is “b” (if you can’t find such number, it
can’t be factored).
(iii) Split the middle term using b1 and b2, that expresses the term bx as b1x + b2x. Now factor by grouping the pairs
of terms.
 Roots of the quadratic equation can be found by equating each linear factor to zero. Since product of two numbers
is zero, either or both of them are zero.
 Quadratic Formula Method
Any quadratic equation of the form ax2 + bx + c = 0, where a ≠ 0 can be solved for both real and imaginary root
using quadratic formula:
− b ± b 2 − 4 ac
i.e., x=
2a

RATIO AND PROPORTION
Revision Notes
 Proportion: Four quantities of the same kind a, b, c and d are said to be in proportion if, a : b = c : d, we write it as
a : b :: c : d
If the quantities a, b, c and d are in proportion, then a : b : : c : d or ad = bc, i.e., product of extremes = product of
means. Mean Proportional is not defined. If a, b and c are in continued proportion, then a : b = b : c.
or b2 = a.c. Here, b is called mean proportional between a and c.
Continued Proportional: Three or more quantities are said to be in continued proportion if the ratio of the first
and the second is equal to the ratio of the second and the third and so on.

FACTORISATION OF POLYNOMIALS
Revision Notes
 Factor Theorem: Let f(x) be a polynomial and ‘a’ be a real number then (x – a) is a factor of f(x) if f(a) = 0
i.e., let f(x) = x2 – 4x + 3. For x – 1 to be the factor of f(x), f(1) = 0
Þ f(1) = (1)2 – 4(1) + 3 = 0
\ (x – 1) is a factor of f(x).
 Remainder Theorem: If a polynomial f(x) of degree greater than or equal to one is divided by one of its factor (x
– a), the remainder is f(a), for example:
If the polynomial f(x) = x2 + 2x + 1 is divided by x – 1, the remainder can be obtained by putting x = 1 in f(x)
f(1) = (1)2 + 2(1) + 1 = 4

 Order of Matrix: The number of rows (r) and columns (c) that a matrix has is called its order or its dimension. By
convention, rows are listed first, and columns, second. Thus, we would say that the order (or dimension) of the
matrix is r × c. If a matrix has 3 rows and 4 columns, then order of the matrix will be 3 × 4.
1. Types of Matrices:
(i) Column matrix: A matrix having only one column is called a column matrix or column vector.

• Note that the elements a11, a22, a33, …, amm of a square matrix A = [aij]n×n of order m are said to constitute
the principal diagonal or simply the diagonal of the square matrix A. These elements are known as diagonal
elements of matrix A.

2. Equality of Matrices:
Two matrices A and B are said to be equal and written as A = B, if they have the same order and their corresponding
elements are identical i.e. aij = bij i.e., a11 = b11, a22 = b22, a32 = b32 etc.
3. Addition of Matrices:
If A and B are two m × n matrices, then another m × n matrix obtained by adding the corresponding elements of
the matrices A and B is called the sum of the matrices A and B and is denoted by ‘A + B’.
Thus if A = [aij], B = [bij], Þ A + B = [aij + bij].
Properties of matrix addition:
• Commutative property: A + B = B + A
• Associative property: A + (B + C) = (A + B) + C
• Cancellation laws: (i) Left cancellation : A + B = A + C Þ B = C
(ii) Right cancellation : B + A = C + A Þ B = C
4. Multiplication of a Matrix by a Scalar:
If a m × n matrix A is multiplied by a scalar k (say), then the new kA matrix is obtained by multiplying each element
of matrix A by scalar k. Thus, if A = [aij] and it is multiplied by a scalar k, then kA = [kaij], i.e., A = [aij] Þ kA = [kaij].
e.g.,: A =  2 −4  Þ 3A =  6 −12 
 5 6  15 18 
5. Multiplication of Two Matrices:

Let A = [aij] be a m × n matrix and B = [bjk] be a n × p matrix such that the number of columns in A pre–matrix is
equal to the number of rows in B, then the m × p matrix (post matrix) C = [cik] such that [Cik] = Σ nj =1 aij bjk is said to be the
product of the matrices A and B in that order and it is denoted by AB i.e., “C = AB”.
Properties of Matrix Multiplication:
• Note that the product AB is defined only when the number of columns in matrix A is equal to the number of
rows in matrix B.
• If A and B are m × n and n × p matrices respectively, then the matrix AB will be an m × p matrix i.e., order of
matrix AB will be m × p.
• In the product AB, A is called the pre-factor and B is called the post-factor.
• If two matrices A and B are such that AB is possible then it is not necessary that the product BA is also possible.
• If A is a m × n matrix and both AB as well as BA are defined, then B will be a n × m matrix.
• If A is a n × n matrix and In be the unit matrix of order n, then In = In A = A.
• Matrix multiplication is associative i.e., A(BC) = (AB)C.
• Matrix multiplication is distributive over the addition i.e., A.(B + C) = AB + AC.
• Matrix multiplication is not commutative.
6. Transpose of a Matrix:
If A = [aij]m × n be a m × n matrix, then the matrix obtained by interchanging the rows and columns of matrix A is
said to be a transpose of matrix A. The transpose of A is denoted by A’ or AT or Ac i.e., if AT = [aji]n × m.

nth Term of the Arithmetic Progression
Topic-1
Concept Covered  Finding their general term.
Revision Notes
 An arithmetic progression is a sequence of numbers in which each term is obtained by adding a fixed number d
to the preceding term, except the first term.
 The difference between the two successive terms of an A.P. is called the common difference (d).
 Each of the number in the sequence of arithmetic progression is called a term of an A.P.
 The arithmetic progression having finite number of terms is called a finite arithmetic progression.
 The arithmetic progression having infinite number of terms is called an infinite arithmetic progression.
 A list of numbers a1, a2, a3, …… is an A.P., if the differences a2 – a1, a3 – a2, a4 – a3, … give the same value i.e., ak+1 – ak
is same for all different values of k.
 The general form of an A.P. is a, a + d, a + 2d, a + 3d…..
 If the A.P. a, a + d, a + 2d,………, l is reversed to l, l – d, l – 2d, ………, a, then the common difference changes to
negative common difference of original sequence.
 The general term of an A.P. is given by:
an = a + (n – 1)d,
where a is the first term and d is the common difference.
 The general term of an A.P. l, l – d, l – 2d…….. is given by:
a = l + (n – 1)(– d),
where l is the last term, d is the common difference and n is the number of terms.
 The nth term of an A.P. is the difference of the sum to first n terms and the sum to first (n – 1) terms of it.

i.e., an = Sn – Sn–1
 Solution of terms in an A.P.
(i) Three numbers in an A.P. can be selected as a – d, a, a + d.
(ii) Four numbers in an A.P. can be selected as a – 3d, a – d, a + d, a + 3d.
(iii) Five numbers in an A.P. can be selected as a – 2d, a – d, a, a + d, a + 2d.
Key Terms
 A sequence is defined as an ordered list of numbers.
The first, second, third terms of a sequence are denoted by t1, t2, t3 respectively.
 A sequence is said to be a finite sequence if it has finite number of terms. As : 1, 3, 5, 7.
 A sequence is said to be an infinite sequence if it has infinite number of terms. As : 1, 3, 5, 7............... .
 If the terms of sequence are connected with plus (+) or minus (–), then the sequence is called a series.
Example : 2 + 4 + 6 + 8 + ........ is a series.
 If the terms of a sequence or a series are written under specific conditions, then the sequence or series is called a
progression.
 A sequence in which the difference between any two consecutive terms is the same constant, is called an arithmetic
progression.

(i) Reflection in the X-axis (Mx): The general rule for a reflection in the X-axis: (x, y) becomes (x, – y)
Mx : (x, y) ® (x, – y)
In this case its abscissa (x) remains the same but the sign of ordinate (y) is changed.
(ii) Reflection in the Y-axis (My): The general rule for a reflection in the Y-axis (x, y) becomes (– x, y)
My: (x, y) ® (– x, y)
In this case the sign of ordinate (y) remains the same and the sign of abscissa (x) is changed.
(iii) Reflection in the line (My = x): The general rule for a reflection in the line y = x: (x, y) becomes (y, x)
My = x: (x, y) ® (y, x)
In this case the value of abscissa (x) and the ordinate (y) are interchanged.
(iv) Reflection in the origin (M0): The general rule for a reflection in the origin: (x, y) becomes (– x, – y)
M0 : (x, y) ® ( – x, – y)
In this case the sign of abscissa (x) and the sign of ordinate (y) are changed.

the Y-axis at the point on the line where x = 0.

SIMILARITY
Revision Notes
 A triangle is one of the basic shapes of geometry. It is a polygon with 3 sides and 3 vertices/corners.
 Two figures are said to be congruent if they have the same shape and the same size.
 Those figures which have the same shape but not necessarily the same size are called similar figures.
Hence, we can say that all congruent figures are similar but all similar figures are not always congruent.
 Similarity of Polygons: Two polygons having same number of sides are similar, if:
(i) their corresponding sides are proportional i.e., in the same ratio AND
(ii) their corresponding angles are equal.
 Similarity of Triangles: Two triangles are similar, if:
(i) their corresponding sides are proportional i.e., in same ratio OR
(ii) their corresponding angles are equal.
If ∆ABC and ∆DEF are similar, then this similarity can be written as ∆ABC ~ ∆DEF.
 Criteria for Similarity of Triangles:
In DLMN and DPQR, if

LM MN LN
(i) ÐL = ÐP, ÐM = ÐQ, ÐN = ÐR (ii) = =
PQ QR PR
then DLMN ~ DPQR.
(i) AAA-Criterion: If in two triangles, corresponding angles are equal, then the triangles are similar (or AA criterion).
Remark: If two angles of a triangle are respectively equal to the two angles of another triangle, then by the angle
sum property of a triangle their third angles will also be equal. Therefore, AAA similarity criterion can also be
stated as follows:
AA-Criterion: If two angles of one triangle are respectively equal to two angles of another triangle, then the two
triangles are similar.
(ii) SSS-Criterion: If in two triangles the sides of one triangle are proportional to the sides of another triangle, then
their corresponding angles are equal and hence the two triangles are similar.
(iii) SAS-Criterion: If one angle of a triangle is equal to one angle of another triangle and the sides including these
angles are in the same ratio, then the two triangles are similar.
Key Facts
 Some theorems based on similarity of triangles:
(i) If a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle to intersect the other two sides in distinct points, the other two
sides are divided in the same ratio. It is known as ‘Basic Proportionality Theorem’ or ‘Thales Theorem’.
(ii) If a line divides any two sides of a triangle in the same ratio, then the line is parallel to the third side. It is the
Converse of Basic Proportionality Theorem.
(iii) If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of areas of these triangles is equal to the ratio of square of their
corresponding sides.
 Theorems Based on Right Angled Triangles:
(i) If a perpendicular is drawn from the vertex of the right angle of a right triangle to the hypotenuse, then the
triangles on both sides of the perpendicular are similar to the whole triangle and also to each other.
(ii) In a right angled triangle, the square of hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. It
is known as Pythagoras Theorem.

 Volume is the space occupied by the solid body. It is always represented or measured in cubic units.
 Surface area is the area of all of its surfaces together. It is always measured in sq units.
 The total surface area of the solid formed by the combination of solids is the sum of the curved surface areas of
each of the individual parts.
 The solids having the same curved surface do not necessarily have the same volume. r
 Right circular cylinder:
Area of base or top face = pr²
Area of curved surface or lateral surface area = perimeter of the base × height = 2prh h
Total surface area (including both ends) = 2prh + 2pr² = 2pr(h + r)
Volume = (Area of the base × height)= pr²h
Here, r is the radius of base and h is the height.
 Right circular hollow cylinder:
Total surface area = (External surface area + Internal surface area) + (Area of ends)
= (2pRh + 2prh) + 2(pR² – pr²)
= [2ph(R+ r) + 2p(R² – r²)]
= [2p(R + r)(h + R – r)]
Curved surface area = (2pRh + 2prh)= 2ph(R + r)
Volume of the material used = (External volume) – (Internal volume)
= pR²h – pr²h = ph(R² – r²)
 Right circular cone:
Slant height (l) = h2 + r 2
Area of curved surface = prl = pr h 2 + r 2

 The line of sight is the line drawn from the eye of an observer to a point in the object viewed by the observer.
 The angle of elevation of an object viewed is the angle formed by the line of sight with the horizontal when it is
above the horizontal level, i.e., the case when we raise our head to look at the object.

 Ratio of the sides of the right triangle with respect to the acute angles is called trigonometric ratios of the angle.
 The height or object above the water surface is equal to the depth of its image below the water surface.
 The values of the trigonometric ratios of an angle do not vary with the length of the sides of the triangle, if the
angles remain the same.
 When the observer moves towards the perpendicular line, the angle of elevation increases and when the observer
moves away from the perpendicular line, angle of elevation decreases.
 When the angle of elevation of the tower decreases, the shadow of tower increases.

Revision Notes
 Statistics deals with the collection, presentation and analysis of numerical data.
 Three measures of central tendency are:
(i) Mean,
(ii) Median
(iii) Mode

 Mean: The mean of n quantities x1, x2, x3, ......., xn is
x1 + x 2 + x3 + .... + xn 1 n
Mean = = ∑ xi
n n i =1
where, the Greek letter S(sigma) means ‘Summation of ’.
 Median: It is defined as the middle most or the central value of the variable in a set of observations, when the
observations are arranged either in ascending or descending order of their magnitudes.
It divides the arranged series in two equal parts i.e. 50% of the observations lie below the median and the
remaining are above the median.
 Mode: The item which occurs most frequently i.e., maximum number of times is called mode.
 Mean:
(a) For Ungrouped Data:
If there are n distinct observations x1, x2,..., xn of variable x with frequencies f1, f2,..., fn respectively, then the
arithmetic mean is given by:
n
f1x1 + f2 x 2 + .... + fn xn ∑ fx i i
x = = i =1
n
f1 + f2 + f3 + .... + fn
∑f i
i =1
(b) For Grouped Data:
(i) To find the mean of grouped data, it is assumed that the frequency of each class interval is centred
around its mid point.
(ii) Direct Method:
n
∑ fx
i =1
i i
Mean ( x ) = n ,
∑f i =1
i
where the xi (class mark) is the mid-point of the ith class interval and fi is the corresponding frequency.
(iii) Assumed Mean Method or Short-cut Method:
n
∑ fdi =1
i i
Mean ( x ) = A + n ,
∑f
i =1
i
where A is the assumed mean and di = xi – A are the deviations of xi from A for each i.
(iv) Step-Deviation Method:
n
∑ fu i i
Mean ( x ) = A + i =1
n
×h,
∑ fi

xi − A
where A is the assumed mean, h is the class size and ui = ·

Calculation of Median and mode through Graphs

Concepts Covered
Topic-2  Graphical Representation. Histograms and Less than Ogive.
 Finding the mode from the histogram, the upper Quartile, lower Quartile and median etc. from the
ogive.
 Calculation of inter-quartile range.
Revision Notes
 Cumulative frequency curve or an Ogive curve: The graphical representation of a cumulative frequency
distribution is called the cumulative frequency curve or ogive.
There are two methods to construct ogives:
1. Less than ogive:

In this method an ogive is cumulated upward. Scale the cumulative frequencies along the Y-axis and exact upper
limits along the X-axis. The scale along the Y-axis should be in such a way that it accommodate the total frequency.
Step 1: Form the cumulative frequency table.
Step 2: Mark the actual upper class limits along the X-axis.
Step 3: Mark the cumulative frequency of the respective classes along the Y-axis.
Step 4: Plot the points (upper limits, corresponding cumulative frequency.)

By joining these points on the graph by a free hand curve, we get an ogive of ‘less than’ type.
2. More than ogive:

In this method an ogive is cumulated downward. Scale the cumulative frequencies along the Y-axis and the exact
lower limits along the X-axis.
Step 1: Scale the cumulative frequencies along the Y-axis and the actual lower limits along the X–axis.
Step 2: Plot the ordered pairs (lower limit, corresponding cumulative frequency). To complete an ogive we also
plot the ordered pair (upper limit of the highest class, 0).
Step 3: Join these plotted points by a smooth curve. The curve so obtained is the required ‘more than’ type ogive.
 Median:

Ogive can be used to estimate the median of the data. There are two methods to do so:
N
I. Mark a point corresponding to , where N is the total frequency on cumulative frequency axis (i.e., Y-axis).
2
Draw a line parallel to X-axis to cut the ogive at a point. From this point draw a line perpendicular to the
X-axis to get another point. The abscissa of this point gives median.
II. Draw both the ogives (less than and more than ogive) on the same graph paper which cut each other at a

point. From this point draw a line perpendicular to the X-axis, to get another point. The point at which it cuts
X-axis, gives the median.
3. Calculation of mode from histogram: In a continuous frequency distribution the mode can be determined from
the histogram.
Method to determine the mode:
Step 1: First, we draw histogram for the given data.
Step 2: Inside the highest rectangle (which represents the class with maximum frequency i.e., modal class). We
draw two straight lines from the corners of the rectangles on both sides of the highest rectangle to the opposite
corners of the highest rectangle to intersect each other.
Step 3: Through the point of intersection of the two straight lines, we draw a vertical line to meet the X-axis at the
point (m) (say). The distance from origin to the point m is the required mode.

CHAPTER-23
PROBABILITY
Revision Notes
 The sum of the probabilities of all elementary events of an experiment is 1.
 Probability of an event lies from 0 and 1.
 A pack of playing cards consists of 52 cards which are divided into 4 suits of 13 cards each. Each suit consists of
one ace, one king, one queen, one jack and 9 other cards numbered from 2 to 10. Four suits are spades, hearts,
diamonds and clubs.
 King, queen and jack are face cards.
 Clubs and spades are of black, while hearts and diamonds are of red colour.
 Probability can never be negative.
Key Terms
 An event which always happens is a sure event and event which never happen is an impossible event.
 Probability is a quantitative measure of certainty.
 Any activity associated to certain outcome is called an experiment. e.g.,
(i) tossing a coin, (ii) throwing a die, (iii) selecting a card.

 A trial is an action which will result in one or several outcomes.
 An event for an experiment is the collection of some outcomes of the experiment.
e.g., (i) getting a head on tossing a coin, (ii) getting a face card when a card is drawn from a pack of 52 cards.
 The empirical (experimental) probability of an event E denoted as P(E) is given by :
Number of trials in which the event has happened
Empirical Probability P(E) =
Total numbeer of trials
Favourable outcomes
or P(E) =
Total no. of outcomes
