NUMBER SYSTEM
SET THEORY
Set: A Set is a collection of well defined and well distinguished objects.
Elements: The objects which constitute the set are said to be elements of the set.
Representation of Set:
(a)

Roster / Tabulation Method: In this method the set is represented by listing all its
elements by commas and enclosing them in flower brackets.
Ex: A = {1, 2, 3, ................}

(b) Rule Method: Defining the set is called rule method.

P={Set of all natural numbers less than 6}

Finite Set: A set is said to be finite if it has finite number of elements.

Infinite Set: A set is said to be infinite if it has an infinite number of elemements.
Order of a Set: Is the number of elements it contains.
Empty Set: A set having no elements is said to be an empty set. It is also called null set
or void set. It is denoted by {} or . Order of null set A is n(A) = 0.

Singleton Set: A set having only one element is said to be a singleton set.
Subset: Let A and B be two sets them the set A is said to be a subset of the set B if
each element of A is also an elements of B symbolically we write it as A B.

Equal Sets: Two sets are said to be equal if A B and B A. Two sets A and B are
said to be equal if they have exactly same elements.

Equivalent Sets: Two sets are said to be equivalent if they have same number of
elements.

Universal Sets: The main set under discussion or the set containing all possible
values in the given frame of reference is said to be universal set and is denoted by U. It
is the Union of all the sets.

Operation on Sets:
(a) Union of Sets: Let A and B be two sets. The Union of A and B is the set of al lthose
elements which are either in A or in B or in Both. It is denoted symbolically by
A B = {x : x A or x B}
A

(b) Intersection of Sets: Let A and B be two sets. Then intersection of A and B is the set
of all those elements which are in both A and B. If it denoted symbolically by A B
A B = {x : x A and x B}
A

Disjoint Sets: Two sets are said to be disjoint if and only if they have no common
elements.
A B =
n (A B) = 0
A

Difference of Sets: Let A and B be two sets then (A - B) is the set of those elements of
the Set A which are not in the set B
(A - B) = {x : x A and x
(B - A) = {x : x B and x
A

B}
A}

(A - B)

(B - A)

Complement of Sets: Let U be the Universal set and A be any set then the
complement of the set A is the set of all those elements of U which are not in the set A.
This is denoted by A1 or (U - A).
A1 = {x : x
U

U and x

A}

SEQUENCE
Sequence: It is an ordered arrangement of numbers according to a given rule. The
term of a sequence in successive order is denoted by Tn. The nth term Tn is called general
term of the sequence

Finite Sequence: A Sequence having a finite number of terms.

T1, T2, T3 ................... Tn is a Sequence of nth term and Tn is the last term.

Infinite Sequence: A Sequence having infinite number of terms.

T1, T2, T3 ........................

Series: Sum of the terms of the Sequence is called a Series.

T1 + T2 + T3 + ...................... + Tn Finite Series
T1 + T2 + T3 + ...................... Infinite Series
Sn = T1 + T2 + T3 + ...................... + Tn

Arithmetic Progression (AP): It is a sequence in which defference between a term

and its preceding term is a constant. The constant term is called common difference and
it is denoted by d.

General form of an A.P.:

a is the first term, d is common difference and Tn is nth term then the General form is
a, a+d, a+2d, ................... a + (n-1)d
and n term is Tn = a + (n-1)d
th

Tn+1 = Tn + d and

Tn-1 = Tn - d

To find the common difference d

T p - Tq
d=
and Tp = Tq + (p - q) d
P -Q
If Sequence is in ascending order then the d is +ve and if it is in descending order
then d is -ve.

MATRICES
Matrix:
It is a rectangular arrangement of numbers written in the form of rows and columns
is called Matrix. The arrangement of numbers are enclosed by brackets like [ ] or ( )
or || ||. If a matrix has m rows and n columns then it is called a matrix of order
m x n and it has mn elements.

Types of Matrix:
(a)

Zero Matrix: The matrix in which all its elements are zero.

(b)

Row Matrix: A matrix having only one row is called a row matrix and its
order is 1 x n.

(c)

Column Matrix: A matrix having only one column is called a column

matrix and its order is n x 1

(d)

Rectangular Matrix: A matrix in which the number of rows is not equal to

number of columns and its order is m x n.

(e)

Square Matrix: A matrix in which the number of rows equal to the number
of columns and its order is n x n

(f)

Diagonal Matrix: In a square matrix except the principle diagonal all other
elements are zero.
1 0 0
0 2 0
0 0 3

(g)

3x3

Scalar Matrix: A diagonal matrix in which the principle diagonal elemnts

must be same.
3 0 0
0 3 0
0 0 3

(h)

3x3

Unit Matrix (Identity Matrix): A diagonal Matrix in which principle

diagonal element must be one. It is denoted by I. Identity Matrix is also a
Scalar Matrix.

Symmetric Matrix: If a Square Matrix is folded along its principle diagonal the
elements which coinside are said to be symmetric with respect to the principle
diagonal of the matrix.

Skew Symmetric Matrix: A Square Matrix is called a Skew Symmetric Matrix if

the elements which are symmetric with the principle diagonal are equal but oppiste
in sign while diagonal elements are zero.

3x3

Equal Matrix : Two matrix are said to be equal if their order are same and the
corresponding elements are equal.

Addition of two Matrix: Let A and B be two matrix of order m x n. The sum A + B
of the matrix A and B is a matrix obtained by adding their corresponding elements
order of A + B is also m x n.

Scalar Multiplication of the Matrix: Let A be a matrix of order m x n and K be any

scalar. The scalar multiplication of the matrix A by a scalar K is matrix denoted by
KA and its elements are scalar multiple of the elements of A. The order of K is also
m x n.

Multiplication of Matrices:
If A =

a
c

b
d

and B =

AB =

a
c

b
d

e
g

f
h

e
g
=

f
h

then AB is

ae + bg
ce + dg

af + bh
cf + dh

If the number of columns of matrix A and the number of rows of matrix B are equal
then only AB exists. If A is of order m x n and B is of order n x p. The product AB is of order
m x p.

Transpose of a Matrix: Let A be a matrix of order m x n. The matrix obtained from

A by interchanging the rows in to columns is called the transpose of the matrix A and
it is denoted by A1 and its order is n x m.

PERMUTATION
Permutation is the arrangement of objects which can be made by taking some or all
objects from a set of given objects.
P3 = 4 x 3 x 2

Note:
(1)

On the LHS 4 is at the top of P and first factor on the RHS is 4.

(2)

On the LHS 3 is the bottom of P and the number of factors on the RHS is 3.

(3)

Successive factors starting with 4 (i.e. the first factor) are got by declaring each
factor by 1 generalisation

(4)

The last factor in (1) on the RHS is got as follows n, (n-1), (n-2) .......... from an

CYCLIC SYMMETRY
An expresion in three variables a, b and c is said to posses Cyclic Symmetry if we get back
the original expression by changing a to b, b to c and c to a in order. Then the expression is
called a cyclically symmetric expression in a, b, c
Ex:

(1)

Show that x2 (y - z) + y2 (z - x) + z2 (x - y) is cyclically symmetrical expression.

x2 (y - z) + y2 (z - x) + z2 (x - y)

--- (1)

Changing the variables x to y, y to z and z to x in cyclic order.

y2 (z - x) + z2 (x - y) + x2 (y - z)

--- (2)

Compare equation (1) and (2) both are same

x2 (y - z) + y2 (z - x) + z2 (x - y) is cyclically symmetrical expression.

Show That the following expressions are cyclically symmetrical expression.

QUADRATIC EQUATIONS
An equation involving a variable whose highest degree is one is a linear equation, linear
equation has only one root.
General form is

mx + c = 0

An equation involving a variable whose highest degree is two is a quadratic equation. The
quadratic equation has only two roots.

Quadratic equation involving a variable only in second degree is a pure quadratic equation.
General form is

ax2 + c = 0

Quadratic equation involving a variable in second degree as well as in first degree is an

adfected quadratic equation.
Standard form of quadratic equation where a, b and c are real numbers and a 0 is
ax2 + bx + c = 0

A quadratic equation can be solved by factors method or by using the formula

x=

- b b2 - 4ac
2a

The nature of the roots of ax2 + bx + c = 0 depends on the value of (b2 - 4ac) which is
called the discriminant and denoted by (delta)

If b2 - 4ac = 0 the roots are real and equal.

If b2 - 4ac > 0 the roots are real and distinct.
If b2 - 4ac < 0 the roots are complex or imaginary.
If b = 0 the roots are equal but opposite in sign.
If a = c the roots are reciprocal to each other.
If c = 0 one root is zero.
If a and c have the same sign but b opposite both roots are positive.
If a, b and c have the same sign both roots aer negative.
If a and c have opposite signs the roots have opposite sign.
The sum of the roots of ax2 + bx + c = 0 is given by

-b
a

The product of the roots of ax2 + bx + c = 0 is given by

c
a

When the roots are given we can form the quadratic equation by
x2 - (sum) x + product = 0

THEOREMS ON TRIANGLES AND CIRCLES

Two polygons having the same number of sides are Similar if and only if
(i)

The angles of one triangle are equal to the corresponding angles of the
other and

(ii)

The sides of one triangle are proportional to the corresponding sides of the
other.

Congruent triangles and squares always similar.

The symbol ||| means similar to
Basic proportionality theorem (Thales Theorem):
A stright line drawn parallel to a side of a triangle divides the other two sides proportionately.

Conversely if a line divides two sides of a triangle proportion the line is parallel to the third
side of the triangle.

Corollary of BPT: If a line is drawn parallel to a side of a triangle then the sides of new
triangle formed are proportional to the sides of the given triangle.

THEOREM - 1
If two triangles are equiangular then their corresponding sides are proportional.
Converse of Theorem 1: If the corresponding sides of two triangle are proportional then
the triangles are equiangular.

THEOREM - 2
Areas of similar triangles are proportional to the square on the corresponding sides.
Areas of similar triangles are proportional to the square on the corresponding medians.
Areas of similar triangles are proportional to the square on the corresponding altitude.
Areas of similar triangles are proportional to the square of the radii of their circum circles.

THEOREM - 3
In a right angle triangle the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the square on
the other two sides.

Conversely if the sum of the squares on any two sides is equal to the square on the third side
those two sides include a right angle.

If the square on the longest side of a triangle is greater than the sum of the squares on the
other two sides the triangle is obtuse angled.

If the square on the longest side of a triangle is less than the sum of the squares on the other
two sides the triangle is Acute angled.

If a set of three numbers the square of one equal the sum of the squares of the other two the
three numbers form a pythagorean triplet.

According to Boudhayana Shulba Sutra the diagonal of a rectangle produces both area

TOUCHING CIRCLES

If two circles touch each other the point of contact and the centre of the circles are
collinear.

If the two circles touch externally then the distance between their centre is d = R + r

If the two circles touch internally then the distance between their centre is d = R - r

Three circles of radii r1, r2 and r3 touches externally then perimeter of the triangle
formed by joining the centres of the circles is 2(r1 + r2 + r3)

The tangents drawn to a circle formed an external point are equal.

If the sides of a quadrilateral are tangents to a circle then the sum of opposite sides
equal to the sum of the other pair of sides.

Graph: A set of points together with line segments joining the points in pairs.
Nodes in a graph: A point is a node if there is atleast one path starting from it or reaching it.
Arcs in a graph: The line segment joining two nodes is an arc.
Region: An area bounded by Arcs is called a region. (Considering outside is also a region)
Note: Number of nodes, arcs and regions are denoted by N, A and R respectively.

N + R =A+ 2

is the Eulers formula for networks

Order of a node: The number of paths starting from a node (or reaching it) is called order of
that node.
The order of a node with a loop: A loop can be traced in the clockwise as well as in the
anticlock wise directions. Therefore the order of a node with a loop is 2.
Even Node: If the order of a node is an even number then it is an even node.
Odd Node: If the order of a node is an odd number, then it is an odd node.
Traversibility of a network: A graph is said to be traversible if it can be drawn in one sweep
without lifting the pencil from the paper and tracing the same arc twice.
Eulers solution for traversibility of a network:
A graph is traversible if
(a) It has only even nodes.
(b) It has only two odd nodes.
