Arithmetic Progression

A sequence (finite or infinite) is called an arithmetic progression (abbreviated A.P.) iff the difference of any term from its preceding term is constant. This constant is usually denoted by d and is called common difference. General term of an A.P. Tn = a +(n -1) d. Thus if a is the first term and d is the common difference of an A.P., then the A.P. is a, a +d, a +2 d, ..., a +(n -1) d or a, a +d, a +2 d, ... according as it is finite or infinite. Corollary. If the last term of an A.P. consisting of n terms is denoted by l, then l = a +(n -1) d. Note. Three numbers a, b, c are in A.P. iff b -a = c -b i.e. iff a +c = 2b. Illustrative Examples Example

A sequence {an} is given by the formula an = 10 -3 n. Prove that it is an A.P. Find the general term and 15th term of the sequence 3, 1, -1, -3, .... If the 9th term of an A.P. is 99 and 99th term is 9, find its 108th term.

Solution

i. ii. iii.

Given an = 10 -3 n => an +1 = 10 -3 (n +1) => an +1 -an = 10 -3 (n +1) -(10 -3 n) = -3, which is a constant. Therefore, the given sequence {an} is an A.P. The given sequence is an A.P. with first term a = 3, and common difference d = -2. Hence general term, Tn = a +(n -1) d = 3 +(n -1)(-2) = 5 -2n. Putting n = 15, we get, T15 = 5 -2(15) = -25. Let a be the first term and d be the common difference of given A.P. Then Tn = a +(n -1) d. Putting n = 9, 99 we get T9 = a +8d = 99, T99 = a +98d = 9 => -90d = 90 => d = -1, a = 99 -8d = 107. Hence T108 = a +107d = 107 +107(-1) = 0.

Example Show that the sequence {an} where an = 2n +3 is not an A.P. Solution Given an = 2n +3 => an+1 = 2(n +1) +3. = an+1 -an = (2(n +1) +3) -(2n +3) = (2(n +2n +1) +3) -(2n +3) = 4n +2, which depends upon n and is not constant. Hence the given sequence is not an A.P. Example In a sequence, the sum of first n terms is Sn = 2n +3n +1 for all values of n. Show that the series is an A.P. Find its 100th term. Solution We have Sn = 2n +3n +1, Sn+1 = 2(n -1) +3(n -1) +1 = 2n -n Tn = Sn -Sn-1 = (2n +3n +1) -(2n -n) = 4n +1 Tn+1 -Tn = (4(n +1) +1) -(4n +1) = 4. Hence the given series is an A.P. with common difference d = 4. First term a = T1 = 4n +1 = 4(1) +1 = 5 Now 100th term = T100 = a +99d = 5 +99(4) = 401. Example

Formulae for Sum of A.P.

Formulae

1. Sum of first n terms of an A.P. is

Sn = (n/2)[2a +(n -1)d] 2. If Sn Is sum of n terms of an A.P. whose first term is a and last term is l, then Sn = (n/2)(a + l) 3. If common difference is d, number of terms n and the last term l, then Sn = (n/2)[2l-(n -1)d] Remark Sometimes the question involves 3, 4 or 5 terms of an A.P. If the sum of the numbers is given, then in an A.P., i. ii. iii. three numbers are taken as a -d, a, a +d four numbers are taken as a -3d, a -d, a +d, a +3d. five numbers are taken as a -2d, a -d, a, a +d, a +2d.

This considerably simplifies the calculations of a and d. Illustrative Examples Example i. ii. iii. Sum the series 2 +4 +6 +... upto 40 terms. Find the sum of first 19 terms of the A.P. whose nth term is 2n +1. Find the sum of the series 1 +3 +5 +... +99.

Solution

i.

ii. iii.

We see that given series is an A.P. with first term a = 2, common difference d = 2 and number of terms n = 40 Hence S40 = n[2a +(n -1)d]/2 = 40[2.2 +(40 -1)2]/2 = 20(4 +78) = 1640 Here first term a = T1 = 2n +1 = 2(1) +1 = 3, and last term = T19 = 2(19) +1 = 39 S19 = n(a +l)/2 = 19(3 +39)/2 = 19.21 = 399 Given series is an A.P. with a = 1, l = 99, d = 2 To find the number of terms, we use l = a +(n -1)d => 99 = 1 +(n -1)2 => n -1 = 49 => n = 50 Sn = n(a +l)/2 = 50(1 +99)/2 = 50.50 = 2500

Example i. ii. Sum up 07 +071 +072 +... upto 100 terms. How many terms of the A.P. 17 +15 +13 +... must be taken so that sum is 72? Explain the double answer.

Solution

i.

ii.

We see that given series is an A.P. with first term a = 07 and common difference d = 001 S100 = n[2a +(n -1)d]/2 = 100[2(07) +(100 -1)(001)]/2 = 50 (1 4 +099) = 1195 We are given a = 17, d = -2, Sn = 72 and we have to find n. Using Sn = n[2a +(n -1)d]/2, we get 72 = n[2.17 +(n -1)(-2)]/2 = n(36 -2n)/2 = n(18 -n) => n -18n +72 = 0 => (n -6)(n -12) = 0 => n = 6, 12 Both values of n, being positive integers are valid. We get double answer because sum of 7th to 12th terms is zero, as some terms are positive and some are negative.

Example The interior angles of a polygon are in arithmetic progression. The smallest angle is 120 and the common difference is 5. Find the number of sides in the polygon. Solution The sum of all exterior angles of a polygon = 360. If the interior angles are in A.P., then exterior angles are also in A.P.; largest exterior angle is 180-120 = 60 and common difference is -5. Sum = 360 = n [2 a +(n -1) d]/2 = [2. 60 +(n -1)(-5)]/2 => 720 = 120 n -5n +5n => 5n -125n +720 = 0 => n -25 n +144 = 0 => (n -9)(n -16) = 0 => n = 9 or n = 16. However if n = 16, then internal angles would vary from 120 to 120 +(16 -1)(5) = 195; so one of the internal angles will be 180 which is not possible in a polygon. Hence the only correct solution is n = 9. Example The sum of three numbers in A.P. is 18 and their product is 192. Find the numbers. Solution Let the three numbers in A.P. be a -d, a, a +d. By given conditions, (a -d) +a +(a +d) = 18, (a -d)a(a +d) = 192 => 3a = 18, a(a -d) = 192 => a = 6, 6(36 -d) = 192 => d = 36 -192/6 = 36 -32 = 4 => d = 2. With a = 6, d = 2, we get three numbers as 4, 6, 8. With a = 6, d = -2, we get three numbers as 8, 6, 4. Hence the required numbers are 4, 6, 8. Exercise 1.

Arithmetic Mean

The A.M. between two numbers a and b is A =(a +b)/2 Similarly, if a, A1, A2, ..., An, b are in A.P., then A1, A2, ..., An are called n arithmetic means between a and b.

Illustrative Examples Example Insert six arithmetic means between 2 and 16. Also prove that their sum is 6 times the A.M. between 2 and 16. Solution

Let A1, A2, ..., A6 be six A.M.s between 2 and 16. Then, by def., 2, A1, A2, ..., A6, 16 are in A.P. Let d be the common difference. Here 16 is the 8th term. 16 = 2 +7d => d = 2. Hence six A.M.s are a +d, a +2d, ..., a +6d i.e. 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14. Now sum of these means = 6(4 +14)/2 = 54 = 6.9 = 6(2 +16)/2 = 6 times the A.M. between 2 and 16. Example If A is the A.M. between a and b, show that (A +2 a)/(A -b) + (A +2 b)/(A -a) = 4 Solution Since A is the A.M. between a and b, A = (a +b)/2 Hence (A +2 a)/(A -b) + (A +2 b)/(A -a)

Geometric Progression (G.P.)

A sequence (finite or infinite) of non-zero numbers is called a geometric progression (abbreviated G.P.) iff the ratio of any term to its preceding term is constant. This non-zero constant is usually denoted by r and is called common ratio. General term of a G. P. Tn = a rn-1 Thus, if a is the first term and r is the common ratio., then the G.P. is a, ar, ar, ..., arn -1 or a ,ar, ar, ar, ... according as it is finite or infinite. Remarks

1. If the last term of a G.P. consisting of n terms is denoted by l, then l = a. rn-1.

2. Three numbers a, b, c are in G.P. iff b/a = c/b i.e. iff b = ac.

3. Sometimes the problem involves 3, 4 or 5 numbers in a G.P. If the product of the numbers is given, then in a G.P., (i) three numbers are taken as a/r, a, ar. (ii) four numbers are taken as a/r, a/r, a r, ar. (iii) five numbers are taken as a/r, a/r, a, a r, ar. Illustrative Examples Example Find the n th and the 15th term of the series 1 - 1/2 + 1/4 - 1/8 .... Solution The given series is a G.P. with first term a = 1 and common ratio r = -1/2. Hence nth term,

In particular, T15 = (-1)15-1. 21-15 = 2-14. Example Three numbers whose sum is 21 are in A.P. If 2, 2, 14 are added to them respectively, the resulting numbers are in G.P. Find the numbers. Solution Let the three given numbers in A.P. be a -d, a, a +d. Their sum = 3a = 21 => a = 7. Hence the numbers are 7 -d, 7, 7 +d. Adding 2, 2, 14 respectively, we get the numbers 9 -d, 9, 21 +d. Since these three are in G.P., (9) = (9 -d)(21 +d) => d +12d -108 = 0 => (d +18)(d -6) = 0 => d = 6 or -18. Using d = 6, we get three numbers as 1, 7, 13, and using d = -18, we get three numbers as 25, 7, -11. Thus two sets of numbers are 1, 7, 13 or 25, 7, -11. Example i. ii. If a, b, c, d are in G.P., prove that a +b, b +c, c +d are also in G.P. Find all sequences which are simultaneously arithmetic and geometric progressions.

Solution i. Given a, b, c, d are in G.P., let r be the common ratio. So b = ar, c = ar, d = ar. Hence (b +c) = (ar +ar) = ar(1 +r), and (a +b)(c +d) = (a +ar)(ar +ar) = ar(1 +r). Hence (b +c) = (a +b)(c +d) => a +b, b +c, c +d are in G.P. Let a1, a2, ..., an, ... be a sequence which is A.P. as well as G.P. Since it is an A.P.,

ii.

an +1 = ,n 1 Also, since it is a G.P., Let a1 0 and r be the common ratio, so an = a1. rn -1, an +1 = a1. rn, an+2 = a1. rn +1. Substituting these values in above equation, we get a1 rn = => r = (1 +r)/2 => r -2 r +1 = 0 => (r -1) = 0 => r = 1 Therefore, only a constant sequence a, a, a, ... (a 0) is both an A.P. and G.P. Example

If a, b, c are the p th, q th and r th terms respectively of an A.P. and also the pth, qth and rth terms of a G.P., prove that ab -c. bc -a. ca -b = 1. Solution Let the A.P. be A, A +D, A +2 D, ... and G.P. be x, xR, xR, ... then a = A +(p -1)D, b = A +(q -1)D, c = A +(r -1)D => a -b = (p -q)D, b -c = (q -r)D, c -a = (r -p)D Also a = xRp -1, b = xRq-1, c = xRr -1 Hence ab -c.bc -a.ca-b = (xRp -1)(q -r)D.(xRq -1)(r -p)D. (x Rr -1)(p -q)D = x(q -r +r -p +p -q)D. R[(p -1)(q -r) +(q -1)(r -p) +(r -1)(p -q)]D = x. R = 1.1 = 1 Exercise

Geometric Mean
When three numbers are in G.P., the middle one is said to be the geometric mean (briefly written as G.M.) between the other two. Let a, b be two (positive) numbers and G be the G.M. between them. Then, by definition, a, G, b are in G.P. => G = b => G = a b => G = ab (Conventionally, G is taken as positive). Thus the G.M. between two numbers a and b is G = ab Similarly, if a, G1, G2, ..., Gn, b are in G.P., then G1, G2, ..., Gn are called n geometric means between a and b. Illustrative Example Example i. ii. iii. The A.M. between two numbers is 34 and G.M. is 16. Find the numbers. Show that A.M. between two distinct positive numbers is always greater than G.M. If x, y, z are distinct positive numbers, prove that (x +y)(y +z)(z +x) > 8 x y z. Further if x +y +z = 1, show that (1 -x)(1 -y)(1 -z) > 8 x y z.

Solution

iii.

Let the two numbers be a and b. Then A.M. = (a +b)/2 = 34 => a +b = 68 G.M. = ab = 16 => a b = 256 => a (68 -a) = 256 => a -68 a +256 = 0 => (a -64)(a -4) = 0 => a = 4, 64 Taking a = 64, we get b = 68 -a = 4 Taking a = 4, we get b = 68 -a = 64 Thus the two numbers are 4 and 64 Let a, b be two given positive real numbers. Then A.M. = A = (a + b)/2 G.M. = G = ab Therefore, A -G = (a +b)/2 - ab = (1/2)(a +b -2 ab) = (1/2)( a - b) Now ( a - b), being the square of a non-zero real number is positive. A -G > 0 => A> G As the A.M. between two distinct positive numbers is greater than the G.M. between them, therefore (x + y)/2 > xy => x +y > 2 xy ....(1) (y + z)/2 > yz => z + y > 2 yz ...(2) (z + x)/2 > zx => x + z > 2 zx ...(3) From (1), (2) and (3), we get (x +y)(y +z)(z +x) > 2 x y 2 y z 2 z x i.e. (x +y)(y +z)(z +x) > 8 x y z ...(4) When x +y +z = 1, then y +z = 1 -x, z +x = 1 -y and x +y = 1 -z (1 -x)(1 -y)(1 -z)> 8 x y z.

Note that if r = 1, this formula can not be used. In that case Sn = a +a +a +... n times = na. Sum of an infinite G.P. When r < 1 numerically i.e. -1 < r < 1, then rn goes on decreasing numerically as n increases, and ultimately as n , rn 0

Zeno's Paradox Ancient mathematicians did not know the idea of limits, and they devised several paradoxes of endlessness. In Zeno (5th century B.C) paradox, Achilles and the tortoise had a race. Achilles could run 10 times as fast as the tortoise, but the tortoise had a hundred yard start. Achilles runs the hundred yards, but the tortoise is now 10 yards ahead. Achilles runs the 10 yards, but the tortoise is now 1 yard ahead. Achilles runs the 1 yard, but the tortoise is now 1/10 yard ahead, and so on. How can Achilles overtake the tortoise? The ancient Greeks did not know about limits, so in their logic the problem could not be solved. However, we know that 100 +10 +1 +1/10 + 1/100 ... has a limiting sum

= and so at this point, Achilles overtakes the tortoise. Exercise

Harmonic Progression
A series of non-zero numbers is said to be harmonic progression (abbreviated H.P.) if the series obtained by taking reciprocals of the corresponding terms of the given series is an arithmetic progression. For example, the series 1 +1/4 +1/7 +1/10 +..... is an H.P. since the series obtained by taking reciprocals of its corresponding terms i.e. 1 +4 +7 +10 +... is an A.P.

A general H.P. is 1/a + 1/(a + d) + 1(a + 2d) + ... nth term of an H.P. = 1/[a +(n -1)d] Three numbers a, b, c are in H.P. iff 1/a, 1/b, 1/c are in A.P. i.e. iff 1/a + 1/c = 2/b i.e. iff b= 2ac/(a + c) Thus the H.M. between a and b is H = 2ac/(a + c) Illustrative Examples Example The 7th term of an H.P. is 1/10 and 12th term is 1/25 Find the 20th term, and the nth term. Solution Let the H.P. be 1/a + 1/(a + d) + 1(a + 2d) + ... The 7th term = 1/(a + 6d) = 1/10 => a +6 d = 10 The 12th term = 1/(a + 11d) = 1/25 => a +11 d = 25 Solving these two equations, a = -8, d = 3 Hence 20th term = 1/(a+19d) = 1/[-8 + 9(3)] = 1/49 and nth term = 1/[a +(n -1)d] = 1/[-8 +(n -1) 3] = 1/[3n - 11] Example Prove that three quantities a, b, c are in A.P., G.P., or H.P. iff (a-b)/(b-c) = a/a, a/b or a/c respectively. Solution a, b, c are in A.P. iff b -a = c -b i.e. iff (a-b)/(b-c) = 1 = a/a Also a, b, c are in G.P. iff b/a = c/b i.e iff 1 - b/a = 1 - c/b i.e. iff (a-b)/a = (b-c)/b i.e. iff (a-b)/(b-c) = a/b Similarly a, b, c are in H.P. iff 1/b - 1/a = 1/c - 1/b i.e. iff (a-b)/ab = (b-c)/bc i.e. iff (a-b)/(b-c) = ab/bc = a/c Example If A, G, H are arithmetic, geometric and harmonic means between two distinct, positive real numbers a and b, show that i. ii. G = AH i.e. A, G, H are in G.P. A, G, H are in descending order of magnitude i.e. A > G > H.

Solution Here A = A.M. between a and b = (a+b)/2, G = G.M. between a and b = (ab), H = H.M. between a and b = 2ab/(a+b) (i) A.H = [(a+b)/2].[2ab/(a+b)] = [ (ab)] = G (ii) A - G = (a+b)/2 - (ab) = (1/2)[a +b -2 (ab)] = (1/2)( a - b)> 0 as ( a - b) is square of a non-zero real number. Also G - H = ab - 2ab/(a+b) = [( ab)/(a+b)](a + b - 2 ab) = [( ab)/(a+b)]( a - b)> 0 Hence A > G > H. Exercise 1. Find the n th term of series 5/2 +20/13 + 10/9 + 20/23 +....

Arithmetico-Geometric Series & Some Special Sequences

A series each term of which is formed by multiplying the corresponding terms of an A.P. and G.P. is called arithmetico-geometric series. The general or standard form of such a series is a, (a +d) r, (a +2 d) r, ... The sum of first n natural numbers Let Sn (or n) denote the sum of first n natural numbers, then Sn = 1 +2 +3 +... +n This is an A.P. with a = 1, d = 1 and n terms. Using formula Sn = n(a +l)/2, Sn = n(1 +n)/2 = n(n +1)/2 or n= n(n +1)/2 The sum of squares of first n natural numbers Let Sn (or n) denote the sum of squares of the first n natural numbers, then Sn = 1 +2 +3 +... +n. Consider the identity x -(x -1) = 3 x -3 x +1 ...(i) Putting x = 1, 2, 3, ..., n in (i), we get 1 -0 = 3. 1 -3. 1 +1 2 -1 = 3. 2 -3. 2 +1 3 -2 = 3. 3 -3. 3 +1 .......................................... .......................................... n -(n -1) = 3. n -3. n +1 Adding column wise, we get n -0 = 3(1 +2 +... +n) -3 (1 +2 +... +n) + n n = 3 n -3 n +n therefore n = n(n +1)(2n +1)/6 The sum of cubes of the first n natural numbers Let Sn or n denote the sum of the cubes of the first n natural numbers. Then Sn = 1 +2 +3 +... +n. Consider the identity x4 -(x -1)4 = 4 x -6 x +4 x -1, we get

Method of differences In some series, the differences of successive terms (Tn and Tn -1) may be in some particular sequence -A.P., G.P., A.G.P. etc. In these cases, the sum of series can be found by a technique known as "method of differences".

Illustrative Examples Example Sum to n terms the series 2 +5 x +8 x +11 x +..., |x| < 1. Deduce the sum to infinity. Solution The given series is formed by multiplying corresponding terms of A.P. 2, 5, 8, 11, ... and G.P. 1, x, x, x, ... Hence n th term of given arithmetico-geometric series is [2 +(n -1) 3]. xn -1 = (3 n -1) xn -1 Let Sn = 2 +5 x +8 x +11 x +... +(3 n -4) xn -2 +(3 n -1) xn -1 x Sn = 2 x +5 x +8 x +... +(3 n -4) xn -1 +(3 n -1) xn n -1 (1 -x) Sn = 2 +(3 x +3 x +3 x +... +3 x ) -(3n -1) xn = 2 +3 x (1 +xn -1)/(1-x) -(3 n -1) xn Sn = 2/(1-x) + 3 x (1 +xn -1)/(1-x) -(3 n -1) xn/(1-x) To find limiting sum S, we note that xn -1, xn => 0, n xn => because |x| < 1 Therefore S = 2/(1-x) + 3x/(1 -x) = (2 + x)/(1 -x) Example Sum to infinity the series 1 +2. x + 3. x +..., |x| < 1. Solution Though the given series is not an arithmetico-geometric series, it can be summed up using a similar method. Let S = 1 +4 x +9 x +16 x +... x Sx = x +4 x + 9 x +... => (1 -x) S = 1 +3 x +5 x +17 x +..., which is an arithmetico-geometric series x (1 -x) S = x +3 x+ 5 x +... => (1 -x) S = 1 +2 x +2 x +2 x +... = 1 + 2x/(1-x) = (1 +x)/(1-x). => S = (1 +x)/(1 -x) Example Find the sum of the series 2. 5 +5. 8 +8. 11 +... to n terms. Solution This series is formed by multiplying the corresponding terms of sequences 2, 5, 8, ... and 5, 8, 11, ... both of which are A.P.s. Now nth term of first A.P. = 2 +(n -1)3 = 3n -1 and nth term of second A.P. = 5 +(n -1)3 = 3n +2 Hence nth term of the given series, Tn = (3 n -1)(3 n +2) = 9 n +3 n -2 Thus the required sum, Sn = Tn = (9 n +3 n -2) = 9 n +3 n -2 n = 9 . n (n +1)(2n +1)/6 +3n (n +1)/2 -2 n = n (6 n +12 n +2)/2 = n (3 n +6 n +1)/2 Example Find the sum of first n terms of the series 1 +(1 +2) +(1 +2 +3) +.........

Solving Quadratic Equations by Factorisation

This method uses the fact that ab = 0 => a = 0 or b = 0. Thus x -3x +2 = 0 => (x -1)(x -2) = 0 => x -1 = 0 or x -2 = 0 => x = 1 or x = 2. Thus x = 1, x = 2 are roots of the equation x -3x +2 = 0. Illustrative Examples Example Solve for x: (x +3)(x -3) = 40. Solution (x +3)(x -3) = 40 => x -9 = 40 => x -49 = 0 => (x -7)(x +7) = 0 => x -7 = 0 or x +7 = 0 => x = 7 or x = -7.

Solving Quadratic Equations by Formula

The roots of the equation a x +b x +c = 0, a 0 are [-b + (b -4ac)]/2a, [-b - (b -4ac)]/2a Thus a quadratic equation has exactly two roots: equal or distinct; real or imaginary. Remarks 1. If a quadratic equation in a variable x is satisfied by more than two values of x, then it will be satisfied by all values of x and hence it is an identity. 2. If the coefficients of quadratic are rational, and one of the roots is irrational, then the other root is its conjugate. 3. If the quadratic equation has real coefficients, then if the roots are complex numbers, they occur in conjugate pair. Illustrative Examples Example Solve: 22x +8 +1 = 32. 2x. Solution Given 22x +8+1 = 32. 2x => 28.22x +1 = 32. 2x => 256. (2x) -32. 2x +1 = 0 Putting 2x = t, we get, 256 t -32t +1 = 0 => t = [-(-32) + (- 32) -4 (256)(1)]/[2 (256)] = (32 0)/512 = 1/16, 1/16 But t = 2x. Hence 2x = t = 1, 1 = 2-4, 2-4 => x = -4, -4 Hence the solution of the given equation is x = -4

Example Solve (x +1)(x +2)(x +3)(x +4) = 120. Solution If the problem has four factors (x +a)(x +b)(x +c)(x +d), and the sum of two of the numbers a, b, c, d is equal to the sum of the other two, then we make the substitution as under: (x +1)(x +2)(x +3)(x +4) = 120 => [(x +1)(x +4)] [(x +2)(x +3)] = 120 => (x +5 x +4)(x +5 x +6) = 120 Putting y = x +5 x, we get (y +4)(y +6) = 120 => y +10 y +24 = 120 => y +10 y -96 = 0 => y = [- 10 [(10) -4 (1)(-96)]]/[2(1)] => y = (-10 484)/2 = (- 10 22)/2 = 6, -16 When y = 6, we get x +5 x = 6 => x +5 x -6 = 0 => (x -1)(x +6) = 0 => x = 1, -6. When y = -16, we get x +5x = -16 => x +5x +16 = 0 => x = [-5 [(5) -4 (1)(16)]]/[2 (1)] = (-5 -39)/2 = (-5 i 39)/2 Hence the required solutions are 1, -6, (-5 i 39)/2 Example

Evaluate If 3 = , find x.

iii.

Evaluate the continued fraction

Solution

i.

Let x = Squaring both sides, we get x = 6 + = 6 +x => x -x -6 = 0 => (x -3)(x +2) = 0 => x = 3, -2 As the value of given expression should be positive, we ignore x = -2. Hence the value of the given expression is 3.

ii.

We are given that 3 = Squaring both sides, we get 9=x+ => x = 6 = x +3

iii.

Let x = Then x = 2 +1/x => x = 2 x +1 => x -2 x -1 = 0 => x = [-(-2) (-2) -4 (1)(-1)]/[2(1)] = (2 8)/2 = (2 2 2)/2 = 1 2 But the given expression is positive. Hence the value of the given continued fraction is 1 2.

Example Solve the equation (2x +7) + (3x -18) = (7x +1).

Solution Squaring both sides of the given equation, we get 2x +7 +3x -18 +2 (2x +7). (3x -18) = 7 x +1 => 2 (2x +7). (3x -18) = 2 x +12 => (2x +7). (3x -18) = x +6 Squaring, (2x +7)(3x -18) = (x +6) => 6x -15x -126 = x +12 x +36 => 5x - 27x -162 = 0 => (5x +18)(x -9) = 0 => x = -18/5, 9 For x = -18/5, (2x +7) is meaningless. Hence the only solution is x = 9. Example Three consecutive natural numbers are such that the square of the middle number exceeds the difference of the squares of the other two by 60. Assume the middle number to be x and form a quadratic equation satisfying the above statement. Hence find the three numbers. Solution Since the middle number of the three consecutive numbers is x, the other two numbers are x -1 and x +1. According to the given condition, we have x = [(x +1) -(x -1)] +60 => x = (x +2x +1) -(x -2x +1) +60 = 4x +60 => x -4x -60 = 0 => (x -10)(x +6) = 0 => x = 10 or -6 Since x is a natural number, we get x = 10 Hence the three numbers are 9, 10, 11 Example Determine all values of x for which Solution We know that ab = 1 if b = 0, a 0 or if a = 1 Given that Now x -2x -48 = 0 => (x -8)(x +6) = 0 => x = 8, -6 Also for x = 8 or -6, base = x -5 x +5 0 x -5x +5 = 1 => x -5x +4 = 0 => (x -1)(x -4) = 0 => x = 1, 4 Hence the solutions of the given equation are x = -6, 1, 4, 8 Exercise Solve the following equations (1-9):

Nature of roots of a Quadratic Equation

Discriminant = b -4ac Case I. When a, b, c are real numbers, a

0:

1. If = b -4 a c = 0, then roots are equal (and real). 2. If = b -4 a c > 0, then roots are real and unequal. 3. If = b -4 a c < 0, then roots are complex. It is easy to see that roots are a pair of
complex conjugates.

Case II. When a, b, c are rational numbers, a

0:

1. If = b -4 a c = 0, then roots are rational and equal. 2. If = b -4 a c > 0, and is a perfect square of a rational number, then roots are
rational and unequal.

3. If = b -4 a c > 0 but is not a square of rational number, then roots are irrational
and unequal. They form a pair of irrational conjugates p + q, p q> 0. 4. If = b -4 a c < 0, then roots are a pair of complex conjugates. Illustrative Examples Example Discuss the nature of the roots of the following equations: (i) 4 x -12 x +9 = 0 (ii) 3 x -10 x +3 = 0 (iii) 9 x -2 = 0 (iv) x +x +1 = 0 Solution q where p, q Q,

Here coefficients are rational, and discriminant = b -4 a c = (-12) -4 (4)(9) = 144 -144 = 0. Hence the roots are rational and equal. Here coefficients are rational, and discriminant = b -4 a c = (-10) -4 (3)(3) = 100 -36 = 64. Now = 64 > 0, and 64 is a perfect square of a rational number. Hence the roots are rational and unequal. Here coefficients are rational, and discriminant = b -4 a c = (0) -4 (9)(-2) = 72. Now = 72 > 0 but is not a perfect square of a rational number. Hence the roots are irrational and unequal. Here coefficients are rational, and discriminant = b -4 a c = (1) -4 (1)(1) = -3 < 0. Hence the roots are a pair of complex conjugates.

Example Discuss the nature of the roots of the equation (m +6) x +(m +6) x +2 = 0 Solution Discriminant = (m +6) -4 (m +6)(2) = m +12 m +36 -8 m -48 = m +4 m -12 = (m +6)(m -2)

Roots are real and equal if = (m +6)(m -2) = 0 i.e. if m = 2 (Ignoring m= -6, as then equation becomes 2=0) Roots are real and unequal when = (m +6)(m -2) > 0 i.e. when m < -6 or when m > 2 Roots are a pair of complex conjugates when = (m +6)(m -2) < 0 i.e. when -6 < m < 2

Example Find p, q if p and q are roots of the equation x +px +q = 0. Solution Since p, q are roots of x +px +q = 0, p +q = -p and pq = q. Now pq = q => pq -q = 0 => q(p -1) = 0 => q = 0 or p = 1. When q = 0 then p +q = -p => 2p = -q = 0 => p = 0. When p = 1, then p +q = -p => q = -2 p = -2. Hence the required solutions are p = q = 0 or p = 1, q = -2. Example If the roots of the equation 2 x +(k +1) x +(k -5 k +6) = 0 are of opposite signs then show that 2 < k < 3.

Linear Inequations
In general a linear inequation can always be written as a x +b < 0, a x +b 0, a x +b > 0 or a x +b 0, where a and b are real numbers, a 0. Replacement set The set from which values of the variable (involved in the inequation) are chosen is called the replacement set. Solution set A solution to an inequation is a number (chosen from replacement set) which, when substituted for the variable, makes the inequation true. The set of all solutions of an inequation is called the solution set of the inequation. For example, consider the inequation x < 4 Replacement set Solution set (i) {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10} {1, 2, 3} (ii) {-1, 0, 1, 2, 5, 8} {-1, 0, 1, 2} (iii) {-5, 10} {-5} (iv) {5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10} Note that the solution set depends upon the replacement set. Remark Always reverse the symbol of an inequation when multiplying or dividing by a negative number. Illustrative Examples Example Find the solution set of 2 ;< 3 (x - 2) +5 < 8, x W. Also represent its solution on the number line. Solution Given 2 3 (x -2) +5 < 8 => 2 3 x -6 + 5 < 8 => 2 3 x -1 < 8 => 2 +1 3 x -1 +1 < 8 +1 [Add 1] => 3 3 x < 9 => 1 x < 3 [Divide by 3] But x W i.e. x {0, 1, 2, 3 , 4, ...}, Hence the solution set is {1, 2} The solution set is shown by thick dots on the number line.

Further, as O (0, 0) does not satisfy the inequation 3 x +2 y > 5 (as 3.0 +2.0 = 0 < 5), therefore, the graph of (i) consists of that part of the plane divided by the line 3 x +2 y = 5 which does not contain the origin. Similarly, draw the graph of the inequation x +y 1.Shade the common part of the graphs of both the given inequations (i) and (ii).

Quadratic Inequations
Inequations of the type a x +b x +c > 0, a x + b x +c 0, a x +b x +c < 0, a x +b x +c 0 (a 0) are called quadratic inequalities. Solving Quadratic Inequalities First make the coefficient of x unity by multiplying throughout by 1/a, and reversing the inequality sign if a is negative. Now, three cases arise: Case I. If the quadratic has real distinct roots, say , and < , then

1. 2. 3. 4.

(x (x (x (x -

)(x (x )(x )(x -

) > 0 => x < or x > ) 0 => x or x ) < 0 => < x < ) 0 => x

Case II. If the quadratic has two real, identical roots say , , then we know that x 0 for real x. Therefore

1. 2. 3. 4.

(x (x (x (x -

) 0 => x R (all real numbers) ) > 0 => x R except x = ) 0 => x = ) < 0 => there is no solution.

Case III. If the quadratic has complex roots, then either there is no solution or the entire set of real numbers is the solution. Sign of Quadratic expressions

1. a x +b x +c has same sign as a except when a x +b x +c = 0 has two real and

distinct roots, say , ( < ) and < x < . 2. a x +b x +c is +ve for all real x, when a > 0 and < 0. 3. a x +b x +c is -ve for all real x, when a < 0 and < 0. Range (Maximum / Minimum Value) of Quadratic Expressions Hence the maxima / minima occurs at x = -b/2a and is equal to minima, otherwise we have a maxima. Illustrative Examples Example Solve algebraically: i. 2 x +x -1 < 0 x +2x +3 0 x +x +1 < 0 /4a. If a > 0, we have a

2 x +x -1 < 0 => (x +1)(2 x -1) < 0 => (x +1)(x -1/2) < 0 (Dividing by 2) => -1 < x < 1/2, which is the required solution. We can also write it as x (-1, 1/2) For x +2 x +3 0, the discriminant = 2 -4.1.3 = -8 < 0, so roots are complex. Now x +2 x +3 = (x +1) +2 2 for all real x. Hence x +2 x +3 0 is true for all real x. For x +x +1 < 0, discriminant = 1 -4.1.1 = -3 < 0, so roots are complex.

Now So x +x +1 < 0 has no solution. Exercise

Method of Intervals
Consider the sign of the expression f(x) = (x -a1)(x -a2) ... (x -an) where a1 < a2 < ... < an.

On the real number line, mark points a1, a2, ..., a n. Start with a positive sign for x > an; -ve for an -1 < x < an; and then alternating +ve and -ve signs. The logic is that when x> an; all factors x -a1, x -a2, ..., x -a n are +ve and hence f(x) is +ve; when an-1 < x < an, only one factor x -an is -ve, and so f(x) is -ve, and so on. Quadratic fractions and their range Expressions of the kind (a x +b x +c)/(p x +q x +r), where x is any real number, are called quadratic fractions. Their range can easily be found by putting (a x +b x +c)/(p x +q x +r) = y => a x +b x +c = p y x +q x y +r y => x (a -p y) +x (b -q y) +(c -r y) = 0 Since the value of x is real, discriminant of this equation in x must be non-negative => (b -q y) -4 (a -p y)(c -r y) = 0. This inequality yields range of y. Illustrative Examples Example Solve: x (x -1)(x -2)(x -3) > 0.

Solution Mark points 0, 1, 2, 3 on real line. By method of intervals, we see that given expression is +ve when x > 3 or 1 < x < 2 or x < 0. Thus required solutions set is {x < 0; 1 < x < 2; x > 3}. Example Solve 1/x < 1. Solution

Do not fall into this trap: (1/x) < 1 => x > 1, because we cant multiply by negative quantity without changing the sign of inequality. Correct solution is: Since x > 0 for all real x, x 0. 1/x < 1 => (1/x) x < x => x < x => x -x > 0 => x (x -1) > 0 => x < 0 or x > 1, which is the required solution. Example For what values of a is the inequality (x + a x -2)/(x -x +1) < 2 satisfied for all real values of x? Solution (x +a x -2)/(x -x + 1) < 2 => (x +a x -2)/(x -x +1) -2 < 0 => (x +a x -2 -2 x +2 x -2)/(x -x + 1) < 0 => [-x +x (a +2) -4]/(x -x +1) < 0

=> -x -x (a +2) -4 > 0 (as for all real x) => x -x (a +2) +4 > 0 Now the expression x -x (a +2) +4 is positive for all real x if < 0 (as coeff of x = 1 > 0) => [-(a +2)] -4. 1. 4 < 0 => a +4 a +4 -16 < 0 => a +4 a -12 < 0 => (a +6)(a -2) < 0 => -6 < a < 2, which is the required range for a. Example Show that for all real values of x, the expression (x -2x +4)/(x +2x +4) has greatest value 3 and least value 1/3. Solution Let (x -2 x +4)/(x +2 x +4) = y => x -2 x +4 = x y +2 x y +4 y => x (1 -y) -2 x (1 +y) +4 (1 -y) = 0. Since x is real, discriminant of this quadratic equation in x must be non-negative => = b -4 a c = 0 => [-2 (1 +y)] -4. (1 -y). 4 (1 -y) 0 => 4 [1 +y +2 y -4 (1 +y -2 y)] 0 => -3 y +10 y -3 = 0 => 3 y -10 y +3 = 0 => (3 y -1)(y -3) ; 0 => 1 y 3 => 1/3 (x -2 x +4)/(x +2 x +4) 3 for all real x Thus the greatest value of given quadratic fraction is 3 and least value is 1/3.

Representations of Complex Numbers

Geometric representation The complex number z = x +iy can be uniquely represented by the point P(x, y) in the coordinate plane and conversely corresponding to the point P(x, y) in the plane there exists a unique complex number z = x +iy. The plane is called the complex plane and the representation of complex numbers as points in the plane is called Argand diagram.

Notice that length OP = x +y = |z| Also note that every real number x = x +0i is represented by point (x, 0) lying on x-axis, and every purely imaginary number iy is represented by point (0, y) lying on y-axis. Consequently, x-axis is called the real axis and y-axis is called the imaginary axis.

If z1 = x1 +iy1 and z2 = x2 +iy2 are two complex numbers, then the distance between two corresponding points P1(x1, y1) and P2(x2, y 2) is |P1P2| = [(x1 -x2) +(y1 -y2)] = |z1 -z2| = |z2 -z1|. If P1(x1, y1) and P2(x 2, y2) are two points, then the point Q dividing [P1P2] in the ratio m : n is given Putting m = n = 1, the mid-point of z1 and z2 =

Trigonometric representation

z = x +iy = r cos +i r sin = r (cos +i sin ) This form of z is called trigonometric form or polar form. Thus if modulus of z is r and amp(z) = , then z = r (cos +i sin ) = r cis . Notice that if x = 0, then = /2; if y > 0 and = - /2 if y < 0. If x 0, then tan = r sin /r cos = y/x, so that amp (z) = = tan-1(y/x) The unique value of q such that - < is called principal value of amplitude or argument.

For example, let z = 1 +i. Then r = [(1) + (1)] = 2 and = tan-1 1 = /4. As another example, let r = 2 , = - /4 Then z = r (cos +i sin )

Remark Frequently we have to convert the complex number z = x +i y to its polar form z = r cis . Do the calculations as follows: r = x +y To find : If x = 0 i.e. if z is purely imaginary, then = /2 if y> 0, = - /2 if y < 0. If y = 0 i.e. if z is purely real, then = 0 if x > 0, = if x < 0. Otherwise, let be such that 0 < < /2 Then = if x > 0, y > 0 (i.e. z is in first quadrant) = - if x < 0, y > 0 (i.e. z is in second quadrant) = + if x < 0, y < 0 (i.e. z is in third quadrant) = - if x>0, y<0 (i.e. z is in fourth quadrant). Conversely, given z = r cis , convert it to standard form z = x +iy by using x = r cos , y = r sin . Illustrative Examples Example If z is any complex number, show that -|z| Re(z) |z|. When do the equality signs hold? Solution Let z = x +iy = r cis = r (cos +i sin ) where r = |z| 0 and = amp(z). We know that -1 cos 1 for all => -r r cos r (as r 0) => -|z| Re(z) |z|. (because Re(z) = r cos ) Now -|z| = Re(z) <=> - [x+y] = x <=> y = 0 and x 0. Also Re(z) = |z| <=> x = [x+y] <=> y = 0 and x 0. Hence -|z| = Re(z) = |z| <=> y = 0 and x = 0 => z = 0.

Example Show that the area of the triangle on the Argand plane formed by the complex numbers z, iz and z +iz is |z|/2 Solution Note that the points O(0), P(z), R(z +iz) and Q(iz) form parallelogram OPRQ. Also |OP| = |z| = |iz| = |OQ| and POQ = 90 Thus 0, z, z +iz, iz form a square of side |z|. Hence area of triangle with vertices z, iz and z +iz = (1/2)|z|.|z| = (1/2)|z|

Locus / Regions in Argand Plane

Since any complex number z = x +iy corresponds to point (x,y) in complex plane (also called Argand plane), so many kinds of regions and geometric figures in this plane can be represented by complex equations or inequations. The equation of circle of radius r and center at origin is |z| = r. Note that for the circle |z -z0| = r, all points on the circumference are given by |z -z0| = r,

all points within the circle are given by |z -z0| < r, while all points outside the circle are given by |z -z0| > r. Illustrative Examples Example What is the equation of the circle in complex plane with radius 2 and center at 1 +i? Does the origin lie within this circle, on the circle or outside it? Does any real number lie on this circle?

Solution Here center z0 = 1 +i, radius = 2. So the equation of the circle is |z -z0| = r, that is, |z -(1+i)| = 2 Now, the distance of origin from center (0 -1) +(0 -1) = 2 < radius 2. Thus the origin lies within the circle. Now let the real number (a,0) lie on the circle. So (a -1) +(0 -1) = 2 => (a -1) +1 = 4 => (a -1) = 3 => a -1 = 3 => a = 1 3 Now you try to find out if any purely imaginary number lies on this circle. Example (i) Interpret the loci arg z = /4 in complex plane. (ii) Interpret the loci arg (z -1) = /4 in complex plane. (iii) Represent |z +i| = |z -2| in Argand plane. (iv) How would you represent the line x -y = 0 in terms of complex number z? Solution (i) arg (z) = /4 represents a half ray as shown in the following diagram.

Note that the point z = 0 is not included as arg z is not defined for z = 0. (ii) arg (z -1) = /4 represents a half ray as shown in following diagram.

Note that the point z = 1 is not included. (iii) Let z = x +iy, then |z +i| = |z -2| => |x +iy +i| = |x +iy -2| => |x +(y +1)i| = |(x -2) +iy| => x +(y +1) = (x -2) + y => 4x +2y = 3, which represents a line in Argand plane

Note that intuitively, |z +i| = |z -2| represents all points equidistant from -i and 2 i.e. it represents the perpendicular bisector of join of -i and 2. (iv) The line x -y = 0 is shown in the following diagram.

We note taht the points A(-1,i) and B(1,-i) are such that the line x -y = 0 is perpendicular bisector of AB. Hence required equation in terms of z is |z -(-1 +i)| = |z -(1 -i)| i.e. |z +1 -i| = |z -1 +i |. Exercise

Square roots of Complex numbers

Let z = a +i b, and let the square root of z be the complex number x +i y. Then (a +i b) = x +i y Squaring both sides, a +i b = (x +i y) = (x -y) +i (2 x y). Equating real and imaginary parts, we get x -y = a, 2 x y = b. Solving these two equations for real x, y yields x + i y. There are two square roots of a complex number, of the form (x +i y).

Solution

Let (-3 +4 i) = x +i y. Squaring both sides, we get -3 +4 i = (x +i y) = (x -y) +2 x y i. Equating real and imaginary parts, we get x -y = -3, 2 x y = 4

=> y = 2; x = -3 => x4 - 4 = -3 x => x4 +3 x -4 = 0 => (x +4)(x -1) = 0 => x = -4 or x = 1. Now x being real, x = -4 is ruled out, so x = 1 => x = 1. When x = 1, y = 2/x = 2;

when x = -1, y = 2/x = -2 So we get (-3 + 4i) = (1 +2 i) Let us verify our result: [ (1 +2 i)] = (1 +2 i) = 1 +4 i +4 i = 1 -4 +4 i = -3 +4 i Let i = x +i y => i = (x -y) +2 i x y => x -y = 0; 2xy = 1

=> y = 1; x =0 => x = 1/(4x) => x4 = 1/4 => x = 1/2 Now x being real, x = -1/2 is ruled out x = 1/2 => x = 1/ 2

When When x = -1/ 2, y = 1/(2x) = -1/ 2

number. However z1/n takes n distinct complex values. Thus a complex number has two square roots, three cube roots,..., n nth roots etc. 2. (cis )(cis ) = cis ( + ) and cis /cis = cis ( - ). 3. (cos +i sin )-n = cos (-n ) +i sin (-n ) = cos n -i sin n . Thus, if z = cos +i sin then 1/z = cos -i sin . 4. (cos -i sin ) n = (cos(- ) +i sin(- ))n = cos (-n ) +i sin (-n ) = cos n -i sin n .

Roots of a complex number Let z = r cos = r cos ( +2 m ), where m I z1/n = r1/n Note that r1/n is a real, positive number. Putting m = 0, 1, 2, ... n -1 we get n distinct roots of z, and then the values of Cube roots of unity Since 1 = 1 +0 i = cis 0 = cis (0 +2m ) = cis 2m , m I, 11/3 = (cis 2m )1/3 = cis 2m /3 where m = 0, 1, 2 = cis 0, cis 2 /3, cis 4 /3 start repeating.

= 1, (-1 + 3 i)/2, (-1 - 3 i)/2 Putting w = (-1 + 3 1)/2

= (1 -3 -2 3 i)/4 = (-1 - 3 i)/2 Hence three cube roots of unity are 1, w, w where w = (-1 + 3 i)/2 Remarks

1. 1 +w +w = 1 + (-1 + 3 i)/2 + (-1 - 3 i)/2 = 0 2. 1. w. w =

, thus w = 1. 3. It is easy to find cube roots of "a" in term of w, if a is a real number. Thus cube roots of 27 are 3, 3w, 3w; cube roots of -8 are -2, -2w, -2w etc. 4. Note that 1, w, w are vertices of an equilateral triangle in complex plane. Illustrative Examples Example If z = (13 -5 i)/(4 -9 i), find z6. Solution Given z = (13 -5 i)/(4 -9 i) =[(13 -5 i)(4 +9 i)]/[(4 -9i)(4 +9i)] = (97 +97 i)/97 = 1 + i/4 = 2 [cos( /4) + i sin ( /4)] Using Demoivre theorem,

z6 = = 8(cos 3 /2 +i sin 3 /2) = 8[0 +i(-1)] = -8i Example

Convert the following number to standard form x +iy (cos +i sin )7 (cos -i sin ) Solution (cos +i sin )7 (cos -i sin ) = (cis )7 (cis (- )) = (cis )7 ((cis )-1) = (cis )7 (cis )-3 = (cis )4 = cis 4 = cos 4 +i sin 4 . Example Given that one of the roots of x4 -2 x +3 x -2 x +2 = 0 is 1 +i, find the other three roots. Solution Since all the coefficients of the given equation are real numbers, the roots, if complex, occur in conjugate pairs. Thus two roots are 1 +i, 1 -i. Hence x -(1 +i), x -(1 -i) are two factors of given equation, i.e. (x -(1 +i))(x -(1 -i)) = x -2 x +2 is a factor of given equation. Now it is easy to see that x4 -2 x +3 x -2 x +2 = (x -2x +2)(x +1). Also we know that x +1 = (x -i)(x +i). Thus the four roots of the given equation are i, 1 i. Example Find the fourth roots of unity.

Solution 1 = 1 +0 i = cis 0 = cis (0 +2 m ) = cis 2m , where m I, 1/4 1/4 1 = (cis 2 m ) = cis 2m /4, where m = 0, 1, 2, 3 = cis 0, cis /2, cis , cis 3 /2 = 1, i, -1, -i. Hence the fourth roots of unity are 1, i. Example Show that (i) (1 +w -w)6 = 64. (ii) (1 -w +w)7 +(1 +w -w)7 = 128. (iii) (2 -w)(2 -w)(2 -w10)(2 -w11) = 49.

Angle

If rotation is anticlockwise, the angle is positive. If rotation is clockwise, the angle is negative. One full rotation indicates 360. An angle is said to be acute angle if 0 < 90; right angle if = 90; obtuse angle if 90 < < 180; a straight angle if = 180; and a reflex angle if 180 < < 360.

There are three systems of measurement of an angle:

1. Sexagesimal system
In this system an angle is measured in degrees, minutes and seconds. A complete rotation describes 360. 1 right angle = 90 (Since right angle is 1/4 th of full rotation) A degree is further subdivided as 1degree = 60 minutes, written as 60' and 1 minute = 60 seconds, written as 60''. Thus 3025 = 30 15', 15' = 1' 30'' etc. We say that 3025 is in degrees notation; 30 15' is in degree-minute-second notation. 2. Centesimal system In this system an angle is measured in grades, minutes and seconds.

Here 1 right angle = 100 grades, written as 100g. 1 grade = 100 minutes, written as 100` and 1 minute = 100 seconds, written as 100``. Thus 3025g = 30g25`, 15` = 1`50`` etc. Circular system In this system an angle is measured in radians. The circular measure of an angle is the number of radians it contains. A radian is an angle subtended at the center of a circle by an arc whose length is equal to the radius. A radian is a constant angle.

Conversion Formula radians = 2 right angles = 180 = 200 g. Length of an arc of a circle If an arc of length s subtends an angle radians at the center of a circle of radius r, then s = r Area of a sector of a circle Area of sector = (1/2)r = (1/2) s

Illustrative Examples Example Express in degrees, radians as well as in grades the fourth angle of a quadrilateral, which has three angles 46 30' 10'', 75 44' 45'', 123 9' 35'' respectively. (Take = 355/113) Solution The sum of three given angles = 46 30' 10'' +75 44' 45''+123 9' 35'' = 245 24' 30'' (since 90'' =1'30'' and 84' =124') The sum of all four angles of quadrilateral = 360. Fourth angle = 360 -(245 24' 30'') = 114 35' 30'' (since 360 = 359 59' 60'') To convert it into radians, 114 35' 30'' = 114 +(35 + 30/60)' = 114(71/2)' = 114 +(71/120) = (13751/120) = (13751/120) x ( /180) radians (As 180 = radians) = (13751/120) x (1/180) x (355/113) = 2 radians nearly To convert the angle into centesimal system,

(13751/120) = (13751/120) x (100/90) grades (since 90 = 100 grades) = 1273241 grades = 127g 32` 41``. Example If G, D, denote respectively, the number of grades, degrees and radians in an angle, prove that

i. ii.

G/100 = D/90 = 2 / G -D = 20 /

Solution We know that 1 right angle = 100g = 90 = /2 radians. Let the angle be X right angles. Then G = 100 X, D = 90 X, = ( /2) X ...(1)

i. ii.

From (1), X = G/100 = D/90 = 2 / Hence the result. From (1), G -D = 100 X -90 X = 10 X = 10 x 2 / = 20 /

Solution Given tan = -2 which is - ve, therefore, lies in second or fourth quadrant. Also sec = 1 + tan = 1 +(-2) = 5 => sec = 5 Two cases arise: Case I. When lies in the second quadrant, sec is - ve. sec = - 5 => cos = -1/ 5 sin = (sin /cos ).cos = tan . cos = (-2).(-1/ 5) = 2/ 5 => cosec = ( 5)/2 Also tan = -2 => cot = -1/2 Case II. When lies in the fourth quadrant, sec is + ve. sec = 5 => cos = 1/ 5 sin = (sin /cos ).cos = tan . cos = (-2).(1/ 5) = -2/ 5 => cosec = -( 5)/2 Also tan = -2 => cot = -1/2 Example Prove that sin = x + 1/x is not possible for real x. [-1, 1] any real value any real value except (-1, 1)

Solution When x > 0, x +1/x = ( x - 1/ x) +2 2 When x < 0, let x = -y where y > 0. Then

Thus x +1/x 2 or x +1/x -2 => sin 2 or sin -2 Also, we know that -1 sin 1 Hence sin = x +1/x is not possible for any real x. Aliter. sin = x +1/x => x 2 -sin . x +1 = 0 It is a quadratic in x. As x is real, it has real roots => (-sin ) -4. 1. 1 0 (discriminant 0) => sin 4 => |sin | 2 => sin -2 or sin 2 Also we know that 1 sin -1 Hence sin = x +1/x is not possible for any real x. Example Is the equation 2 sin -cos +4 = 0 possible? Solution 2 sin -cos +4 = 0 => 2 (1 -cos ) -cos +4 = 0 => -2 cos +cos -6 = 0 => 2 cos +cos -6 = 0 => (2 cos -3)(cos + 2) = 0 => 2 cos -3 = 0 or cos +2 = 0 => cos = 3/2 or cos = -2, both of which are impossible as -1 cos Hence the equation 2 sin -cos +4 = 0 is not possible.

T-ratios of Allied Angles

Two angles are said to be allied if their sum or difference is a multiple of 90. For example, 30 and 60 are allied, 150 and -30 are allied.

Aid to Memory for formulae of t-ratios of allied angles

Any function of an angle (n ) treating as acute is numerically equal to same function of , with sign depending upon the quadrant in which the revolving line terminates. The proper sign can be ascertained by "All-Sin-Tan-Cos" formula. For example sin (180+ ) = -sin ; -ve sign was chosen because 180 + lies in third quadrant and sin is -ve in third quadrant. Any function of an angle , treating as acute, is numerically equal to co-function of , with sign depending upon the quadrant in which the revolving line terminates. Note that sin and cos are co-functions of each other; tan and cot are cofunctions of each other; sec and cosec are co-functions of each other.

For memorising, we can use the following table: sin cos tan -sin cos -tan 90cos sin cot 90 + cos -sin -cot 180sin -cos -tan 180 + -sin -cos tan 270-cos -sin cot 270 + -cos sin -cot 2n -sin cos -tan 2n + sin cos tan

If tan A = - 3, find all possible values of A between 0 and 360. Find all values of x lying between 0 and 360 such that sin 2x = 06428.

Solution

i.

ii.

iii.

We know that for first quadrant, tan 60 = 3. Now tan A = - 3, so A lies in second or fourth quadrant. Since required values of A are 180-60 or 360-60 i.e. 120 or 300, we get A = 120 or 300. From trigonometric tables, we find that 06428 = sin 40. As sin 2x = 06428, a positive value, 2x lies in first or second quadrant, we get 2x = 40 or 180-40 i.e. 40 or 140 => x = 20 or 70. Since 0 < x < 360, so 0 < 2x < 720, therefore, 360 +40 and 360 +140 should also be considered. So we may have 2 x = 400 or 500 => x = 200 or 250. Hence required values of x are 20, 70, 200 or 250.

Example i. Which is greater: sin 40 or cos 40? If = -400, determine the sign of (sin +cos ).

ii.

Solution

i.

ii.

In first quadrant, 1 > 2 => sin 1 > sin 2, as value of sin steadily increases from 0 to 1 as increases from 0 to 90. Now cos 40 = cos (90 -50) = sin 50. Therefore sin 50 > sin 40 => cos 40 > sin 40. sin (-400) = -sin (400) = -sin (360 +40) = -sin (40) cos (-400) = cos (400) = cos (360 +40) = cos 40 = cos (90 -50) = sin 50 Hence sin (-400) +cos (-400) = -sin 40 +sin 50 = sin 50 -sin 40 > 0. (since sin 50 > sin 40)

Example If ABCD is a cyclic quadrilateral, then show that cos A +cos B +cos C +cos D = 0. Solution Since ABCD is a cyclical quadrilateral, A +C = , B +D = C = -A, D = -B Hence cos A +cos B +cos C +cos D = cos A +cos B +cos ( -B) = cos A +cos B -cos A -cos B = 0. Exercise 1.

Periodicity of Circular Functions

A function f is said to be periodic if there exists a constant real quantity p such that f (x +p) = f (x) for all x Df There may exist more than one value of p satisfying the above relation. The least positive value of p satisfying above relation is called the period of f. We know that sin (x + p) = sin x for all real x, where p = 2 , 4 , 6 , ... In general, sin (x +2 n ) = sin x for all real x and n Z Thus the period of sin x (or sin ) is 2 (or 360). The period of cos, sec, cosec is also 2 (or 360). However for tangent and cotangent functions, we have tan (x + n ) = tan x, cot (x + n ) = cot x. So the period of tan and cot is (or 180). In general, period of [a sin (bx +c)] or [a cos (bx +c)] is 2 /| b |

Prove that cos - sin = 2 cos( + /4) Find the maximum and minimum values of 7 cos + 24 sin .

Solution

i. ii.

cos - sin = 2 [(cos ) (1/ 2) - (sin )(1/ 2)]= 2(cos cos /4 -sin sin /4)= 2 cos ( + /4) Since 7 +24 = 49 +576 = 625 = 25, 7 cos + 24 sin = 25 [(cos )(7/25) + (sin )(24/25)] Now, we can find an angle such that cos = 7/25 and sin = 24/25 7 cos + 24 sin = 25 (cos cos + sin sin ) = 25 cos ( - ) Now -1 cos ( - ) 1 => -25 25 cos ( - ) 25 => -25 (7 cos + 24 sin ) 25 Hence the given expression varies between -25 and 25. Therefore, the maximum and minimum values of 7 cos + 24 sin are 25 and -25 respectively.

Conditional Identities
You have studied identities like (x +y) = x +y +2xy, which hold for all values (of x and y). Conditional identity is an identity which holds if variables satisfy a given condition. Method of solving conditional identities 1. If the identity involves sines and cosines of angles, then sums/differences should be converted into products using A-B formulae and then simplification should be done, by using C-D formulae or other relevant formulae. 2. If the identity involves squares of sines or cosines, first the squares should be changed into cosines of double angles by using the formulae cosA= (1 +cos2A)/2 and sinA = (1 -cos2A)/2 3. If tangents or cotangents are involved, express the sum of two angles in terms of third angle, (from given relation) and then take tangents of both sides and expand, and simplify. Illustrative Examples Example If A, B, C are angles of a triangle, prove that sin 2A +sin 2C = 4 sin A sin B sin C Solution Since A, B, C are angles of a triangle, we have A +B +C = = 180. L.H.S. = (sin 2A +sin 2B) +sin 2C = 2 sin [(2A +2B)/2] cos [(2A -2B)/2] + sin 2C = 2 sin (A +B) cos (A -B) + 2 sin C cos C = 2 sin ( -C) cos (A -B) + 2 sin C cos ( -(A +B)) = 2 sin C cos (A -B) -2 sin C cos (A +B) = 2 sin C [cos (A -B) -cos (A +B)] = 2 sin C (2 sin A sin B) = 4 sin A sin B sin C = R.H.S. Example If A +B +C = , prove that tan A +tan B + tan C = tan A tan B tan C Solution A +B +C = => A +B = -C => tan (A +B) = tan ( - C) => (tan A +tan B)/(1 -tan A tan B) = -tan C => tan A +tan B = -tan C +tan A tan B tan C => tan A +tan B +tan C = tan A tan B tan C.

Projection formulae In any triangle ABC, i. ii. iii. a = b cos C +c cos B b = a cos C +c cos A c = a cos B +b cos A

Illustrative Examples Example Using sine formula, prove the cosine formula. Solution Let ABC be any triangle. Using sine rule, a/sin A = b/sin B = c/sin C = k (say) => a = k sin A, b = k sin B, c = k sin C Now a +b - c = k sin A + k sin B -k sin C = k sin A + k (sin B -sin C) = k sin A + k sin (B +C) sin (B -C) = k sin A + k sin A sin (B -C) [ A +B +C = => B +C = -A => sin (B +C) = sin ( -A) = sin A] = k sin A [sin A +sin (B -C)] = k sin A [sin (B +C) +sin (B -C)] = k sin A (2 sin B cos C) = 2 (k sin A)(k sin B) cos C = 2 a b cos C => cos C = (a +b -c.)/2ab Similarly the other two cosine formulae can be proved.

By Napier analogy, tan (B -C)/2 = [(b -c)/(b+c)] cot A/2 If B = 90, we get A + C = 90 => B - C = 90 -(90 - A) = A => tan (B-C)/2 = tan A/2 Hence from (1), we get tan A/2 = [(b-c)/(b+c)].[1/tan A/2] tanA/2= (b-c)/(b+c) So tan A/2 = (Taking +ve value as A/2 < 90) By Napier analogy, tan (C -A)/2 = [(c -a)/(c+a)] cot B/2 = [(c -a)/(c+a)]cot 90/2 = [(c -a)/(c+a)]

Circles connected with a given Triangle

The circle which passes through three vertices of a triangle is called the circumscribing circle or circumcircle. The center of this circle is called circumcenter, usually denoted as O, and its radius is called circumradius, usually denoted as R. It can be shown that circumcenter is the point of intersection of right bisectors of the sides of a triangle. The (unique) circle which is drawn within a triangle so as the three sides touch this circle is called the inscribed circle or incircle. The center of this circle is called incenter, usually denoted by I, and its radius is called inradius, usually denoted by r. It can be shown that incenter is the point of concurrence of the bisectors of the three (internal) angles of the triangle. The circle which lies outside the triangle and touches the side BC and also the sides AB and AC produced is called escribed circle or excircle opposite to angle A. Its center is called excenter and its radius is called exradius. It can be shown that excenter is the point of concurrence of internal bisector of angle A and external bisectors of angles B and C. Similarly there are two more excircles, one opposite to angle B and one opposite to angle C. The three excenters are usually denoted as I1, I2, I3 and the three ex-radii are usually denoted as r1, r2, r3.

Techniques of solving a Triangle

The three angles and the three sides of a triangle are called the six elements of the triangle. If three elements of a triangle are given (at least one of them being a side), the other three can be found out by using sine rule, law of cosines and / or semi-sum formulae. This process of finding the unknown elements is called solving a triangle. Solution of right angled triangle If we know the two sides and one angle (i.e. 90), we can use Pythagoras theorem to find the third side and then the sine rule to find other two angles. If one side and another angle are known, we can find the third angle from A +B +C =180, and then use sine rule to find the other two sides. Solution of oblique triangles (i.e. not right angled) We categorise such cases in four categories: (i) When three sides are given. (SSS) (ii) When two sides and the included angle are given. (SAS) (iii) When one side and two angles are given. (SAA) (iv) When two sides and an angle opposite to one of them are given. (SSA) (1) When three sides are given (SSS) As a, b, c are known, first we find the semi-perimeter s = (a +b +c)/2

Then we calculate two angles by using any of the following formulae:

sin A = 2 /bc, cos A = (b+c -a)/2bc Then the third angle can be found by using A +B +C = 180 (2) When two sides and the included angle are given (SAS) Let sides b, c and angle A be given (b > c). Then A +B +C = 180 => B +C = 180 -A After this, we use Napier Analogy: tan (B -C)/2 = [(b -c)/(b+c)]cot A/2 From this (B -C)/2 and thus, B -C can be found. Now, since B +C and B -C are known, we can find B and C by adding and subtracting. The side a can be found by using sine rule. (3) When one side and two angles are given (SAA) We can find the third angle using A +B +C = 180. Then we calculate the other two sides using sine rule. (4) When two sides and an angle opposite to one of them is given (SSA) Let the two side b, c be given, and also angle B (opposite to given side b) be given. To find angle c, we use sine rule: b/sin B = c/sin C => sin C = c sin B/b Three cases arise: (i) If c sin B > b, then sin C > 1, which is not possible. Hence there is no solution. (ii) If c sin B = b, we get sin C = 1 => C = 90. Then the triangle can be solved. (iii) If c sin B < b, then sin C < 1, and two values of C are possible, say C1 (0 < C1 < 90) and C2 = 180 -C1 (90 < C2 < 180). If B +C2 < 180, two solutions of given triangle are possible, and this is called ambiguous case. If B +C2 > 180, we have to reject this value of C (i.e. C2) and solve the triangle by using value C1 only. Illustrative Examples Example Solve the right angled triangle where (i) C = 90, A = 30 and c = 10 (ii) A = 90, C = 56 and a = 50. Solution

i.
B = 180 - A - C = 180 -30 -90 = 60 From the figure, we get sin 30 = BC/AB = a/10 a = 10 sin 30 = 10.(1/2) = 5 b = AC = [AB -BC] = [10 -5] =

75 = 5 3 units

ii.
B = 180 - A - C = 180 -90 -56 = 34 Now a/sin A = b/sin B => 50/sin 90 = b/sin 34 b = 50 sin 34/sin 90 = 2796 Again, a/sin A = b/sin C => c = a sin C/sin A = 50.sin 56/sin 90 = 4145 Example Solve the Solution 2 s = a +b +c = 242 +375 +289 = 90 6 s -a = 211, s -b = 78, s -c = 16 4 => s = 453 ABC, if a = 242, b = 375, c = 289.

Now log tan A/2 = (1/2) [log 78 +log 164 -log 453 -log 211] = (1/2) [08921 +12148 -1 6561 -13243] = (1/2) [21069 -29804] = [-08735] = -0 4367 = 5633 => A/2 = 20 6' => A = 40 12'

Similarly => log tan B/2 = [log 164 +log 211 -log 453 -log 78] = (1/2) [12148 +13243 -16561 -08921] = (1/2) [25391 -25482] = [-00091] = -00045 = 19955 B/2 = 44 42' => B = 89 24' Now C = 180 -(A +B) = 180 -(40 12' +89 24') = 180 -129 36' = 50 24' Hence A = 40 12', B = 89 24', C = 50 24'. Example In a triangle ABC, C = /6, = Solution C = /6 = 30 => A +B = 180 -C = 180 -30 = 150 Now tan (B -A)/2 = [(b -a)/(b+a)] cot C/2 = [( 3 -1)/( 3 +1)]cot 15 = [( 3 -1)/( 3 + 1)].[( 3 +1)/( 3 - 1)] = 1 = tan 45 => (B -A)/2 = 45 => B -A = 90 From B +A = 150, B -A = 90, we get by adding (B +A) +(B -A) = 150 +90 => 2 B = 240 => B = 120 A = 150 -B = 150 -120 = 30 Now a/sin A = c/sin C => 1/sin 30 = c/sin 30 => c = 1 Hence A = 30, B = 120, c = 1 Example In a triangle, A = 30, B = 70 and a = 10. Solve the triangle. Solution C = 180 -(A +B) = 180 -(30 +70) = 80 Now a/sin A = b/sin B = c/sin C 3 and a = 1. Find the other two angles and the side.

=> 10/sin 30 = b/sin 70 = c/sin 80 b = 10 sin 70/sin 30 = 2 x 10 x 09397 = 18794 and c = 10 sin 80/sin 30 = 2 x 10 x 09848 = 19 696 Example Solve the triangle ABC when b = 7, c = 10, B = 51. Solution Using sine formula, sin C/c sin B/b => sin C = c sin B/b log sin C = log c -log b +log sin B = log 10 -log 7 +log sin 51 = 1 -08451 +18905 = 0 0454, which is +ve => sin C > 1, which is impossible.

Practical use of Trigonometry

Trigonometric knowledge can be used to estimate heights of objects or distances betweens points, for example, height of a mountain or breadth of a river. Angles of elevation and depression If a horizontal line is drawn from the eye of the observer (O), and an object P is above this line OX, then POX is called angle of elevation. If an object Q is below the horizontal line OX, then QOX is called angle of depression. Note that from P, the point O is situated at an angle of depression = X'PO = POX =

Bearings of a point The bearing of a line in horizontal plane is the angle made by it from North-South line. The angle (measured from north in clockwise direction) is generally given in three figures (e.g. 045 instead of 45). So this kind of measurement is called three figure bearing.

However, more frequently, quadrant bearings are used. Here, firstly we see whether the line makes acute angle on North or South side. Then we measure acute angle from North or South towards East or West as the case may be, and use that measure (in degrees) and letter E or W accordingly.

Some useful figures

While solving problems on heights and distances, the following figures should be remembered. 2 1 414, 3 1732, 5 2236 sin 0 = 0, sin 15 = ( 3 -1)/[2 2 , sin 36 = ( 5 - 1)/[2 2] sin 18 = ( 5 -1)/4, sin 30 = 1/2, sin 60 = ( 3)/2 ,sin 75 = ( 3 -1)/2 2 sin 90 = 1 Illustrative Examples Example A tree casts shadow Solution Let BC = h be the height of the tree, so that length of shadow, AB = the elevation of the sun, we see from the diagram that tan = BC/AB = h/[h 3] = 1/ 3 = tan 30 3 h. If is the angle of 3 times its height. Find the angle of elevation of the sun.

= 30 Example From the top of a tower 60 m high, the angles of depression of the top and bottom of a building are observed to be 30 and 60 respectively. Find the height of the building. Also find the distance between the tower and the building. Solution Let AB be the building h meters high, and PQ be the tower 60 m high situated at distance BQ = x meters away. Then AC = BQ = x, CQ = AB = h, PC = 60 -h From BPQ, cot 60 = BQ/PQ = x/60 => x = 60 cot 60 From APC, cot 30 = AC/PC = x/(60 -h) => 60 -h = x/ cot 30 = 60 cot 60 tan 30 = 60 (1/ 3)(1/ 3) = 20

=> h = 60 -20 = 40 Thus the building is 40 meters high and is situated 3464 meters away from the tower. Example

Two boats leave a place at the same time. One travels 56 km in the direction N 50 E, while the other travels 48 km in the direction S 80 E. What is the distance between the boats?

Solution Let points A and B represent the position of two boats. We have to find AB, and we know that OA = 56 km, OB = 48 km, AOB = 180 -50 -80 = 50 Using cosine formula in OAB, we get cos 50 =[ (56)+(48) - (AB)]/[ 2(56)(48)] AB = (56) +(48) -2 (56)(48) cos 50 = 3136 +2304 -5376 x 06424 = 5440 -345569 = 198431 => AB = 198.31 = 4454 meters Example A radio transmitter antenna of height h stands at the top of a tall building. At a point on the ground, the angle of elevation of the bottom of the antenna is and that of the top of the antenna is . Prove that the height of the building is h tan /(tan -tan ).

Solution Let AB be the building of height x, CA be the antenna of height h, and y be the distance of the observer from the foot of the building. In OBC, tan = (x +h)/y In OAB, tan = x/y Eliminating y between these two equations, (x +h)/x = tan / tan => x tan +h tan = x tan => h tan = x tan -x tan => x = h tan /(tan -tan ) Exercise 1.

Distance Formula
Distance between two points P(x,y) and Q(x,y) is |PQ| = [(x2 -x1) +(y2 -y1)]. Hence the distance of the point P (x, y) from the origin (0, 0) = [(x -0) +(y -0)] = [x +y] Remarks To prove that a quadrilateral is a (i) rhombus, show that all the sides are equal. (ii) square, show that all the sides are equal and the diagonals are also equal. (iii) parallelogram, show that the opposite sides are equal. (iv) rectangle, show that the opposite sides are equal and the diagonals are also equal. Illustrative Examples Example Show that the points (7, 10), (-2, 5) and (3, -4) are the vertices of an isosceles right angled triangle. Solution Let the points be A (7, 10), B (-2, 5) and C (3, -4), then |AB| = [(- 2 -7) +(5 -10)] = [81 +25] = 106, |BC| = [(3 +2) +(11 -3)] = [25 +81] = 106 and |CA| = [(7- 3) +(10 -(-4))] = [16 +196] = 212 => AB = 106, BC = 106 and CA = 212, Hence AB +BC = 106 +106 = 212 = CA => ABC is right angled and it is right angled at B. Also |AB| = 106 = |BC| => ABC is isosceles. Example Show that the points (-1, -1), (2, 3) and (8, 11) are collinear. Solution Let the points be A (-1, -1), B (2, 3) and C (8, 11), then |AB| = [(2 -(-1)) +(3 -(-1))] = [32 +42] = [9 +16] = 25 =5, |BC| = [(8 -2) +(11-3)] = [36 +64] = 100 = 10 and |CA| = [(8 -(-1)) +(11 -(-1))] = [92 +122] = [81 +144] = 225 =15. Hence |AB| +|BC| = 5 +10 = 15 = |CA| => the given points are collinear. Example The vertices of a triangle are A (1, 1), B (4, 5) and C (6, 13). Find cos A. Solution If a, b, c are the sides of ABC, then a = |BC| = [(6 -4) +(13 -5)] = [4 +64] = 68 = 2. 17, b = |CA| = [(6 -1) +(13 -1)] = [25+144] = 169 = 13, and c = |AB| = [(4 -1) +(5 -1)] = [9 +16] = 25 = 5 By cosine formula, we have cos A = (b +c -a)/ 2bc = (169 +25 -68)/(2.13.5) = 126/130 = 63/65 Exercise

When the Point divides the line segment Internally Let P (x1, y1) and Q (x2, y2) be two given points in the co-ordinate plane, and R (x, y) be the point which divides the segment [PQ] internally in the ratio m1 : m2 i.e. PR/RQ = m1 / m2, where m1 0, m2 0, m1 + m2 0 Then the coordinates of R are (m1 x2 +m2 x1)/(m1 + m2), (m1y2 + m2y1)/(m1 + m2) Note. [PQ] stands for the portion of the line PQ which is included between the points P and Q including the points P and Q. [PQ] is called segment directed from P to Q. It may be observed that [QP] is the segment directed from Q to P. If a point R divides [PQ] in the ratio m1 : m2 then it divides [QP] in the ratio m2 : m1. When the Point divides the line segment Externally Let P (x1, y1) and Q (x2, y2) be two given points in the co-ordinate plane, and R (x, y) be the point which divides the segment [PQ] externally in the ratio m1 : m2 i.e. PR/RQ = m1 / m2, where m1 0, m2 0, m1 - m2 0 Then the co-ordinates of R are m1 x2 -m2 x1)/(m1 -m2), (m1y2 -m2y1)/(m1 -m2) Mid-point formula The co-ordinates of the mid-point of [PQ] are ((x1 +x2)/2, (y1 +y2)/2) Illustrative Examples Example

Solution i. Let (x, y) be the co-ordinates of the point R which divides the line segment joining the points P (2, -3) and Q (-4, 5) in the ratio 2 : 3 internally, then x = [2.(-4) +3.2]/(2+3) = - 2/5 and y = [2.5 +3.(-3)]/(2+3) = 1/5 Hence the co-ordinates of R are (-2/5, 1/5) Let (x, y) be the co-ordinates of the point R which divides the line segment joining the points P (2, - 3) and Q (-4, 5) in the ratio 2 : 3 externally i.e.internally in the ratio 2 : -3.

Centroid and Incenter

The point which divides a median of a triangle in the ratio 2 : 1 is called the centroid of the triangle. Thus, if AD is a median of the triangle ABC and G is its centroid, then AG/GD = 2/1

By section formula, the co-ordinates of G are

The symmetry of the co-ordinates of G shows that it also lies on the medians through B and C. Hence the medians of a triangle are concurrent. Incenter of a triangle The point of the intersection of any two internal bisectors of the angles of a triangle is called the incenter of the triangle. It is usually denoted by I.

Slope of a Straight Line

Slope (or gradient) of a straight line If ( 90) is the inclination of a straight line, then tan is called its slope (or gradient). The slope of a line is usually denoted by m. Remark. Since tan is not defined when = 90, therefore, the slope of a vertical line is not defined. Slope of the line joining two points The slope m of a non-vertical line passing through the points P(x1 , y1) and Q(x1, y1) is given by slope = m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1) Remarks

Two (non-vertical) lines are parallel iff their slopes are equal. Two (non-vertical) lines are perpendicular iff the product of their slopes = -1. Slope of a perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line.

Illustrative Examples Example Without using Pythagoras theorem, show that the points A (1, 2), B (4, 5) and C (6, 3) are the vertices of a right-angled triangle. Solution In ABC, we have m1 = slope of AB = (5 -2)/(4-1) = 3/3 = 1 and m2 = slope of BC = (3 -5)/(6-4) = 2/2 = -1 m1 m2 = 1. (-1) = -1 => AB BC Hence, the given points are the vertices of a right-angled triangle. Example Using slopes, show that the points A (6, -1), B (5, 0) and C (2, 3) are collinear. Solution Slope of AB = [0 -(-1)]/(5-6) = 1/(-1) = -1 and slope of AC = [3 -(-1)]/(2-6) = 4/(-4) = -1 => slope of AB = slope of AC => AB and AC are parallel. But AB and AC have point A is common, therefore, the given points A, B and C are collinear. Exercise

General Form of a Circle

The equation x +y +2 gx +2 fy +c = 0 represents a circle iff g +f -c > 0. Its center is (-g, -f) and radius = [g +f -c]. Concentric circles. Circles having same center are called concentric circles. Equal circles Circles having equal radius are called equal circles. Illustrative Examples Example One end of a diameter of the circle x +y -6 x +5 y -7 = 0 is (-1, 3). Find the co-ordinates of the other end. Solution The given equation is x + y -6 x +5 y -7 = 0 It is easy to see that this represents a circle with center C (3, - 5/2) Let A(-1,3) and B( , ) be the ends of the diameter. Since C is mid-point of [AB], we get ( - 1)/2 = 3 and ( +3) / 2 = - 5/2 = 7 and = -8 Hence the other end of the diameter is (7, -8). Example Show that the points (7, 5), (6, -2), (-1, -1) and (0, 6) are concyclic. Also find the radius and the center of the circle on which they lie.

Illustrative Examples Example Find the equation of a straight line whose inclination is 5 /6 and which cuts off an intercept of 4 units on negative direction of y-axis. Solution Let m be the slope of the line, then m = tan 5 /6 = tan 150 = tan (180 -30) = -tan 30 = 1/ 3 Also c = y-intercept = -4 So the equation of the line is y =(-1/ 3) x +(-4) (As y = m x +c) i.e. x + 3y + 4 3 = 0 Example Show that the points (a, 0), (0, b) and (3 a, -2 b) are collinear.

Example In what ratio is the line joining the points (2, 3) and (4, -5) divided by the line joining the points (6, 8) and (-3,-2)? Solution The equation of the straight line joining the points (6, 8) and (-3, -2) is y -8 = [(-2 -8)/(-3 -6)](x -6) (Two-point form) => y -8 = (10/9) (x -6) => 9 y -72 = 10 x -60 => 10 x -9 y +12 = 0 ...(i) Let the line joining the points (6, 8) and (-3, -2) i.e. the line (i) divide the line segment joining

the points (2, 3) and (4, -5) at the point P in the ratio k : 1, then the co-ordinates of point P are ((k.4 +1.2)/(k+1), (k (-5) +1 .3)/(k+1)) i.e. ((4k +20)/(k+1), (-5k +3)/(k+1)) Since P lies on (i), we get 10[(4k +20)/(k+1)] -9[(-5k +3)/(k+1)] + 12 = 0 => 40 k +20 +45 k -27 +12 k +12 = 0 => 97 k +5 = 0 => k = -5/97 Hence the required ratio is -5/97 i.e. 5 : 97 externally. Example Prove that the locus of the point which is equidistant from the points (-3, 7) and (2, -5) is a straight line. Solution Let A (-3, 7) and B (2, -5) be the given points and P (x, y) be any point on the locus, then | AP | = | BP | (given) => (x +3) +(y -7) = (x -2) +(y +5) => x +6 x +9 + y -14 y +49 = x -4 x +4 + y +10 y +25 => 10 x -24 y +29 = 0, which is a first degree equation in x and y, and so it represents a straight line.

Distance of a Point from a Line

The perpendicular distance d of a point P (x 1, y 1) from the line ax +by +c = 0 is given by d =| ax1 +by1 +c|/[ (a +b)]

Rule to find the distance between parallel lines i. ii. Choose a point on one of the given parallel lines. Find the perpendicular distance from this point to the other line.

Illustrative Examples Example Find the equation of a straight line, with a positive gradient, which passes through the point (5, 0) and is at a perpendicular distance of 3 units from the origin. Solution Let m (> 0) be the gradient of the line, then any line through (-5, 0) and with gradient m is y -0 = m(x +5) i.e. mx -y +5m = 0 ...(i) It will be the required line if its perpendicular distance from origin (0, 0) is 3 units => |m.0 -0 +5 m| /[ (m +(-1))] = 3 => | 5 m | = 3 [m +1] => 25 m = 9 (m +1) => 16 m = 9 => m = 3/4 (m > 0) Substituting this value of m in (i), the equation of the required line is (3/4) x -y + 5.3/4 = 0 or 3 x -4 y +15 = 0 Example Find the distance between the lines 3 x -4 y +7 = 0 and 6 x -8 y = 18.

Families of Lines
One parameter family of lines It may seem that the equation of a straight line ax +by +c = 0 contains three arbitrary constants. In fact, it is not so. On dividing it by a (or b, which ever is non-zero), we get x + y(b/a) + (c/a), which can be written as x + By + C = 0 where B =b/a and C = c/a. It follows that the equation of a straight line contains two arbitrary constants, and the number of these arbitrary constants cannot be decreased further. Thus, the equation of every straight line contains two arbitrary constants, consequently, two conditions are needed to determine the equation of a straight line uniquely. One condition yields a linear relation among two arbitrary constants and hence each arbitrary constant determines the other. Therefore, the lines which satisfy one condition contain a single arbitrary constant. Such a system of lines is called one parameter family of lines and the unknown arbitrary constant is called the parameter. Examples of one parameter families

The equation y -y1 = m (x -x1), for different real values of m, represents a family of lines which pass through the fixed point (x1, y1) except the vertical line x = x1. The equation x = a, for different real values of a, represents the family of lines parallel to y-axis (including the y-axis itself). The equation a x +b y +k = 0, for different real values of k, represents a family of lines parallel to the line ax +by +c = 0. The equation b x -a y +k = 0, for different real values of k, represents a family of lines perpendicular to the line ax +by +c = 0. If l1 = a1 x +b1 y +c1 = 0 and l2 = a2 x +b2 y +c2 = 0 then l1 +k l2 = 0, for different real values of k, represents a family of lines passing through the point of intersection of the lines l1 and l2.

Illustrative Examples Example Find the equation of the family of lines with x-intercept -4. Solution Since the x-intercept of the family is given to be -4, therefore, each member of the family passes through the point (-4, 0).By using point-slope form, the equation of such a family of lines is y -0 = m (x -(-4)) i.e. y = m (x +4), where m is a parameter. Note. The above equation of the family does not give the vertical line through the point (-4, 0). However, the equation of this line is x = -4 i.e. x +4 = 0. Example Find the equation of the straight line which is parallel to 3 x -7 y = 11 and makes x-intercept 3 units. Solution The given line is 3x -7 y -11 = 0 ...(i) The equation of the family of lines parallel to (i) is 3 x -7 y+k = 0 ...(ii) where k is a parameter. To find x-intercept, put y = 0, we get 3 x +k = 0 => x =k/3 For the required member of the family which makes x-intercept 3 units, k/3 = 3 => k = -9 Substituting this value of k in (ii), the equation of the required line is 3 x -7 y -9 = 0 Exercise

Orthogonal Circles
Angle of intersection of two circles An angle between the two tangents to the two circles at a point of intersection is called an angle of intersection between two circles.

Orthogonal circles Two circles are said to cut orthogonally iff angle of intersection of these circles at a point of intersection is a right angle i.e. iff the tangents to these circles at a common point are perpendicular to each other. If r, r' are radii of circles S and S' respectively and d is the distance between their centers and is an angle of intersection of these circles, then cos =(r +r' -d)/(2 r r') If the circles S and S' cut orthogonally, then = 90,cos = cos 90 = 0 => (r +r' -d)/(2r r') = 0 => r +r' = d Two circles S = x +y +2gx +2 f y +c = 0 and S' = x +y +2 g' x +2 f'y +c' = 0 cut orthogonally if 2 (g g' +f f') = c +c'.

Equation of a Circle in different forms

A circle is the locus of a point which moves in a plane so that it remains at a constant distance from a fixed point. The fixed point is called the center and the constant distance is called radius. Radius is always positive. Standard (or simplest) form The equation of a circle with O(0,0) as center and r (>0) as radius is x +y = r Central form The equation of a circle with C(h,k) as center and r (>0) as radius is given by (x -h) +(y -k) = r Diameter form

Let A(x1,y1) and B(x2,y2) be the extremities of a diameter of the circle. Then the equation of the circle is (x -x1)(x -x2) + (y -y1)(y -y2) = 0

Illustrative Examples Example Find the equation of a circle whose center is (3,-2) and which passes through the intersection of the lines 5x +7y = 3 and 2x -3y = 7. Solution Given lines are 5x +7y -3 = 0 ...(i), and 2x -3y -7 = 0 ...(ii) Solving (i) and (ii) simultaneously, we get x = 2, y = -1. So the point of intersection, say P, of the given lines is (2,-1). Since the center of the circle is C(3,-2) and it passes through the point P(2,-1), radius = |CP| = [(2 -3) +(-1 +2)] = [1 +1] = 2 Hence the equation of the circle is (x -3) +(y +2) = ( 2) (central form) or x +y -6x +4y +11 = 0. Example Find the equation of a circle which touches i. ii. the y-axis at origin and whose radius is 3 units both the co-ordinate axes and the line x = 3.

Solution i. There are two circles satisfying given conditions. As the circles touch y-axis at the origin, their centers lie on x-axis. Since radius is 3 units, centers of the circles are (3, 0) and (-3, 0) and hence the equations of the circles are (x 3) +(y -0) = 3 or x +y 6x = 0

The condition that the line y = mx +c may intersect the circle x + y = a is given by a(1 + m) c Remark

The line y = m x + c will intersect the circle x + y = a in two distinct points iff a (1 +m) > c, and the line will intersect the circle in one and only one point i.e. the line will be a tangent to the circle iff a(1 +m) = c, and the line will not intersect the circle iff a(1 + m) < c. Corollary 1. Condition of the tangency The line y = mx + c will touch the circle x +y = a iff a(1 + m) = c i.e. iff c = a [1 +m] Corollary 2. Equations of tangents in slope form Substituting the values of c = a [1 +m] in equation y = mx + c, we get y = mx a [1 +m] Thus, there are two parallel tangents to the circle x +y = a having m as their slope.

(ii) Let (ii) pass through the point P ( , ), then = m + a [1 +m] - m = a [1 +m] => ( - m ) = a(1 + m) => + m 2 - 2 m - a - a m = 0 => ( - a) m - 2 m + ( - a) = 0, which is a quadratic in m having two roots, say m1, m2; and these represent slopes of two tangents passing through P ( , ). Since the tangents are at right angles, m1 m2 = -1 => - a = -1 => - a = - + a -a

Families of Circles
A collection of circles is called a family or a system of circles. Let S and S' be two intersecting (or touching) circles, then S +k S' = 0, k -1, represents a family of circles through their points (or point) of intersection. Remarks 1. If k = -1, then the equation S +kS' = 0 reduces to S -S' = 0 which represents the common chord in case of intersecting circles or common tangent in case of touching circles. 2. The equation S +kS = 0 represents all members of the family except the member S'. If we need the member S', then take the equation of the family as S' +kS = 0. Illustrative Examples Example Find the equation of the family of circles passing through the points A(0,4) and B(0,-4). Solution Let the equation of the desired family of circles be x +y +2gx +2fy +c = 0 ...(i) As all these circles pass through the points A(0,4) and B(0,-4), we get 0 +16 +0 +8f +c = 0 => 8f +c +16 = 0 ...(ii), 0 +16 +0 -8f +c = 0 => -8f +c +16 = 0 ...(iii) On solving (ii) and (iii), we get f = 0, c = -16. Substituting these values in (i), we get x +y +2gx -16 =0 ...(iv) Note that for every real value of g, g +f -c = g +16 > 0, therefore, (iv) represents a circle. Hence the equation x +y +2gx -16 = 0 for different real values of g represents the desired family of circles. It is one-parameter family of circles where g is the parameter. Example Find the equation of the circle which passes through the points of inter-section of x +y -4 = 0 and x +y -2x -4y +4 = 0 and touches the line x +2 y = 0. Solution

The equations of the given intersecting circles are S = x +y -4 = 0, and S' = x +y -2 x -4y +4 = 0 The equation of the common chord of these circles is S -S' = 0 => l = 2 x +4 +4 y -8 = 0 The equation of the family of circles passing through the intersection of the given circles is x +y -4 +k (2x +4 +4y -8) = 0 ...(i) Its center is (-k,-2k) and radius = [k +4k +4 +8k] = [5k +8k +4]. For the particular member of the family which touch the line x +2y = 0, we have |-k +2 (-2k)|/ [1 +2] = [5k +8k +4] => 5|k|/ 5 = [5k +8k +4] => 5 k = 5 k+8 k +4 => 8 k +4 = 0 => k = -1/2 Substituting this value of k in (i), the equation of the required circle is x +y -4 - (1/2)(2x +4y -8) = 0 i.e. x + y -x -2y = 0.

Conics
The curves known as conics were named after their historical discovery as the intersection of a plane with a right circular cone.

Applonius (before 200 B.C.) realized that a conic (or conic section) is a curve of intersection of a plane with a right circular cone of two nappes, and the three curves so obtained are parabola, hyperbola and ellipse.

Let l be a fixed line and F be a fixed point not on l, and e > 0 be a fixed real number. Let |MP| be the perpendicular distance from a point P (in the plane of the line l and point F) to the line l, then the locus of all points P such that |FP| = e |MP| is called a conic.

The fixed point F is called a focus of the conic and the fixed line l is called the directrix associated with F. The fixed real number e (> 0) is called eccentricity of the conic. In particular, a conic with eccentricity e is called (i) a parabola iff e = 1 (ii) an ellipse iff e < 1 (iii) a hyperbola iff e > 1. Four standard forms of the parabola

An ellipse is the locus of a point in a plane, sum of whose distances from two given points F and F' (in the plane) is a constant and greater than |FF'|. Remark. The focal property of ellipse gives us a practical method of drawing an ellipse. Fasten the ends of a string of length 2a > |FF'| at two distinct points F and F'. Keep the string taught by means of a pencil placed against the string and slide it along the string, the curve thus traced is an ellipse with F and F' as its foci.

Find the equation of the parabola with focus at (-2, 0) and whose directrix is the line x +2y -3 = 0. Solution The focus of the parabola is at F(-2, 0) and directrix is the line x +2y -3 = 0. Let P(x, y) be any point on the parabola and |MP| be the perpendicular distance from P to the directrix, then by def. of parabola |FP| = |MP| (As e = 1 for parabola) So ((x +2) +y) = |x +2y -3|/ (1 +2) On squaring, => 5 ((x +2) +y) = (x +2 y -3) (since |x| = x) => 5 (x +4 +4 x +y) = x +4 y +9 +4 x y -6 x -12 y => 4 x -4 xy +y +26 x +12 y +11 = 0, which is the required equation of the parabola. Example Find the equation of the ellipse whose focus is (1, -2), the corresponding directrix x -y +1 = 0 and eccentricity is 2/3. Solution The focus of the ellipse is at F(1, -2), the corresponding directrix is the line x -y +1 = 0 and e = 2/3. Let P (x, y) be any point on the ellipse and | MP | be the perpendicular distance from P to the directrix, then by def. of ellipse |FP| = e |MP|

=> => 9 [(x -1) +(y +2)] = 2 (x -y +1) => 9 [x -2 x +1 +y +1 +y +4 y +4] = 2 [x +y +1 -2 x y +2 x -2 y] => 7 x +4 x y +7 y -22 x +40 y +43 = 0, which is the required equation of the ellipse. Example Find the focus, directrix and eccentricity of the conic represented by the equation 3y = 8x. Solution The given equation is 3 y = 8 x i.e. y = (8/3) x ...(i) which is the same as y = 4ax, so (i) represents a standard (right hand) parabola, and hence its eccentricity is 1, as e = 1 for parabola.

Also 4a = 8/3 => a = 2/3, therefore, focus is (a, 0) i.e. x +2/3 = 0 i.e. 3 x +2 = 0. Example

Find the locus of a point P, the sum of whose distances from the points F(-2, 3) and F'(2, 0) is constant equal to 4 units. Solution Here, we note that |FF'| = [(2+2) +(y -2)] = 5 and |PF| +|PF'| = 4 (given) => |PF| +|PF'| < |FF'|, which is not possible wherever P may be (since sum of two sides of a triangle cannot be less than third side) Therefore, the locus of P is the empty set.

Factorial Notation
The continued product of first n natural numbers is called n factorial or factorial n. It is denoted by | n or n! Thus, | n or n! = 1. 2. 3. 4. .... (n -1) . n = n (n -1)(n -2). .... 3.2.1 (in reverse order) Meaning of zero factorial According to the above definition, makes no sense. However we define 0! = 1 Note. When n is a negative integer or a fraction, n factorial is not defined. Illustrative Examples Example Find the value of i. ii. iii. iv. v. 25! / 23! 9! / [6!.3!] (7 -4)! 5! -4! 2! +3!

Solution i. ii. iii. iv. v. 25!/23! = 25. 24 23!/ 23! = 25. 24 = 600 9! /[6! 3!] = 9.8. 7. 6! /[6! 3!] = 9. 8. 7/3! = 84 (7 -4)! = 3! = 3. 2. 1 = 6 5! - 4! = (5. 4. 3. 2. 1) - (4. 3. 2. 1) = 120 -24 = 96 2! + 3! = (2. 1) + (3 . 2. 1) = 2 +6 = 8

Example Find n, if n! /[2! (n -2)!] and n! /[4! (n -4)!] are in the ratio 2 : 1. Solution Given n! /[2! (n -2)!] : n!/[4!(n -4)!] = 2:1 => [n! / 2! (| n -2)!].[4! (n -4)! /n!] = 2/1 => 4.3.2!.(n -4)! /[2!.(n -2).(n -3).(n -4)!] = 2/1

=> 4.3 /[(n -2)(n -3)] = 2/1 => (n -2)(n -3) = 6 => n -5 n = 0 => n (n -5) = 0 => n = 0 or n = 5 But, for n = 0, (n -2)! and (n -4)! are not meaningful, therefore, n = 5. Example Prove that 33! is divisible by 216. What is the largest integer n such that 33! is divisible by 2n? Solution 33! = 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. ... . 29. 30. 31. 32. 33 = [2. 4. 6. ... . 30. 32] [1. 3. 5. ... . 29. 31. 33] = [(2. 1) (2. 2) (2. 3) ... (2. 15) (2. 16)] [1. 3. 5. ... . 31. 33] = 216.

Permutations and Combinations

Combination

Each of the groups or selections which can be made by taking some or all of a number of things without reference to the order of things in each group is called a combination. For example, choosing two fruits out of a basket containing 4 oranges and 5 bananas - three combinations are possible - two oranges, two bananas or one orange and one banana. Permutation Each of the arrangements which can be made by taking some or all of a number of things is called permutation. For example, the letters of word CAT can be arranged in six different ways CAT, CTA, ACT, ATC, TAC, TCA Sometimes, students may be confused whether combination or permutation is being talked about. Certain key words/phrases can be helpful in deciding. Combinations: Selection, choose, make group, distribute, committee, geometric problems. Permutations: Arrangements, standing in a line, seated around a table, problems on digits or letters of a word. Fundamental Theorem 1. Multiplication Principle (Principle of Association). If a certain thing can be done in m ways, and if when it has been done, a second thing can be done in n ways, then the total number of ways in which two things can be done is mn. For example, if there are eight top heroes and 4 top heroines, a film producer can choose from 8 x 4 = 32 pairs. 2. Addition Principle: If there are two jobs which can be done in m and n ways respectively, then either of two jobs can be done in m + n ways. For example, if the film producer has limited budget and he can afford either a top hero or a top heroine but not both, then he can choose in 8 +4 = 12 ways. Illustrative Examples Example Three persons enter a railway carriage, where there are 5 vacant seats. In how many ways can they seat themselves? Solution First man can sit on any of 5 vacant seats. Then the second can sit on any of 4 vacant seats left. And the third can sit on any of 3 vacant seats left. Hence by fundamental principle of counting, the required number of ways is 5 x 4 x 3 = 60. Example How many numbers are there between 100 and 1000 such that i. ii. iii. iv. v. vi. vii. viii. every digit is either 2 or 5 there is no restriction the digit in the hundreds place is 5 atleast one of the digits is 5 exactly one of the digits is 5 no digit is repeated atleast one digit is repeated the digit in units place is 5?

Solution The numbers between 100 and 1000 consist of 3 digits - 100 is included and 1000 is excluded. i. Since every digit is 5 or 2, there are 2 ways of filling up of each of three digits (places). Thus the three digits can be filled in 2 x 2 x 2 = 8 ways. It is easy to see that the eight numbers satisfying giving condition are 222, 225, 252, 255, 522, 525, 552, 555.

ii. iii. iv.

vi. vii. viii.

The first digit has to be non-zero so there are 9 choices. Second and third digits can be any of ten digits 0 to 9. Hence required number of numbers is 9 x 10 x 10 = 900 (including 100 but excluding 1000). Digit in hundreds place is fixed (5). The other two places can each be filled in 10 ways. Hence possible ways are 1 x 10 x 10 = 100. It is easy to see that numbers between 500 and 599 (both inclusive) fulfill given criteria. First, let us find all numbers between 100 and 1000 which do not have digit 5 in any place. The number of such numbers is 8 x 9 x 9 = 648 (including 100). We have also seen in part (ii) that there are 900 numbers between 100 and 100 (including 100). Hence there are 900 -648 = 252 numbers between 100 and 1000 which have at least one digit as 5. The numbers with exactly one digit as 5 are: (a) of type 5 x x = 1 x 9 x 9 = 81 (where x is non-five digit) (b) of type x 5 x= 8 x 1 x 9 = 72 (first digit is non-zero, non five) (c) of the x x 5 = 8 x 9 x 1 = 72 Thus there are 81 +72 +72 = 225 numbers between 100 and 1000 which have exactly one digit as 5 First digit (i.e. hundreds digit) can be anything from 1 to 9; second digit can be then filled in 9 ways, and third digit in 8 ways. Thus number of numbers with no digit repeated is 9 x 9 x 8 = 648. As there are 900 numbers between 100 and 1000 (including 100) and 648 of them have no digit repeated, there are 900 -648 = 252 numbers (including 100) which have at least one digit repeated. The digit in hundreds place can be filled in 9 ways (1 to 9); the digit in tens place can be filled in 10 ways (0 to 9), and digit in units place can be filled in one way only as it is fixed (5). Hence required number of numbers is 9 x 10 = 90.

Example i. ii. iii. In how many ways can the letters of the word WONDERFUL be arranged? Ten students participate in a debate. In how many ways can the first three prizes be won? Find the number of signals which can be given with 5 flags of different colours hoisted one above the other, by using any number of flags.

Solution

i. ii. iii.

Since there are 9 distinct letters in WONDERFUL, the required number of permutations is 9 P9 = 9! = 9. 8. 7. 6. 5. 4. 3. 2. 1 = 362880 The given problem is similar to one of filling 3 places with any 3 of 10 distinct objects. This can be done in 10P3 ways. Hence required number is 10 P3 = 10. 9. 8 = 720 When 1 flag is used, number of signals = 5P1 = 5 When 2 flags are used, number of signals = 5P2 = 5. 4 = 20 When 3 flags are used, number of signals = 5P3 = 5. 4. 3 = 60 When 4 flags are used, number of signals = 5P4 = 5. 4. 3. 2 = 120 When 5 flags are used, number of signals = 5P5 = 5. 4. 3. 2. 1 = 120 Hence total number of signals = 5 +20 +60 +120 +120 = 325

Example i. ii. iii. Find the number of permutations of n different things taken r at a time when each thing may be repeated any number of times in any permutation. In how many ways can three prizes be given to 20 boys when a boy may receive any number of prizes? Find the sum of all three digit numbers formed by using odd digits 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 with repetition of digits allowed.

Solution

The first place may be filled with any of n things. After the first place has been filled up, the second place can also be filled in n ways since we are not prevented from repeating the same thing. When the first two places have been filled in n x n ways, the third place can also be filled up in n ways and so on. By fundamental principle of association, the r places can be filled in (n x n x ... r times) ways, i.e. nr ways. Hence the required number of permutations = nr The first prize can be given in 20 ways, and then second prize can also be given in 20 ways, since repetition is allowed. Similarly third prize can also be given in 20 ways. Thus by principle of association, required number of ways = 20 x 20 x 20 = 8000 Since any of 5 digits can be placed at any place, there are 5 x 5 x 5 = 125 such numbers. Now consider the digits in units place. 25 numbers end with digit 1; 25 numbers end with digit 3, and so on. Hence sum of all units digits of 125 numbers = 25(1 +3 +5 +7 +9) = 625. Similarly sum of tens digits of 125 numbers is 625, and sum of hundreds digits of 125 numbers is 625. Hence sum total of these 125 numbers is 625 (1 +10 +100) = 625 x 111 = 69375

Example Find the number of divisors of the number 36000. Solution Factorising the given number, we find 36000 = 25 . 3. 5. This means that any divisor of 36000 is of the type 2a. 3b. 5c where a can take values 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5; b can take values 0, 1, 2; c can take values 0, 1,2, 3. Hence number of divisors is 6 x 3 x 4 = 72. Note that both 1 and 36000 are counted among 72 divisors. Exercise

Permutations under restrictions

Number of permutations of n distinct objects when a particular object is not taken in any arrangement is n-1Pr Number of permutations of n distinct objects when a particular object is always included in any arrangement is r.n-1Pr-1.

Illustrative Examples Example Without using factorials prove that nPr = n-1Pr + r.n-1Pr-1 Solution
n

Pr indicates permutations of n distinct objects taken r at a time. Alternatively, we have two ways of arranging these : One, in which a particular object is always excluded - there are n-1Pr ways of doing so. Two, in which the particular object is always included - there are r.n-1Pr-1 ways of doing so. Hence nPr = n-1Pr + r.n-1Pr-1 Example

In how many ways can 4 books on Mathematics and 3 books on English be placed on a shelf so that books on the same subject always remain together? Solution Consider the 4 books on Mathematics as one big book and 3 books on English as another big book. These two can be arranged in 2! ways. In each of these arrangements, 4 books on Mathematics can be arranged among themselves in 4! ways and 3 books on English can be arranged among themselves in 3! ways. Hence, the required number of ways = 4! 3! 2! = 288. Example How many different (eight letter) words can be formed out of the letters of the word DAUGHTER so that i. ii. iii. iv. the word starts with D and ends with R position of letter H remains unchanged relative position of vowels and consonants remains unaltered no two vowels are together?

Solution The given word consists of 8 different letters out of which 3 are vowels and 5 are consonants.

i. ii.
iii.

iv.

If the words have to start with D and end with R, then we can arrange remaining 6 letters at 6 places in 6P6 = 6! = 720 ways. If position of H remains unchanged, the remaining 7 letters can be arranged in 7 places in 7P7 = 7! = 5040 ways. The relative position of vowels and consonants remains unaltered means that vowel can take the place of vowel and consonant can take place of consonant. Now the 3 vowels can be arranged among themselves in 3! = 6 ways and the 5 consonants can be arranged among themselves in 5! = 120 ways. Thus the total number of words that can be formed = 6.120 = 720 First let us arrange the consonants in a row. This can be done in 5P5 = 5! = 120 ways CxCxCxCxCx Now no two vowels are together if they are put at places marked . The 3 vowels can fill up these 6 places in 6P3 = 6.5.4 = 120 ways. Hence, the total number of words = 120.120 = 14400

Permutations of objects which are not all different

The number of permutations of n things taken all together, when p of the things are alike of one kind, q of them alike of another kind, r of them alike of a third kind and the remaining all different is n! / [p! q! r!] The number of permutations of n objects, of which m are of one kind and the rest n -m of another kind, taken all at a time is n! / [m! (n-m)!]

Illustrative Examples Example In how many ways can the letters of the word permutations be arranged such that i. ii. iii. iv. v. vi. there is no restriction P comes before S words start with P and end with S T's are together vowels are together order of vowels remains unchanged?

Solution The given word has 12 letters -two Ts and 10 different letters. i. ii. iii. iv. Total number of arrangements is12!/2! = 6. 11! Out of above, P comes before S in half the arrangements. Hence required number of arrangements = 3. 11! As position of P and S is fixed, remaining 10 letters (that is, two T's and eight other different letters) can be arranged in 10!/2! = 5. 9! ways. Considering two T's as a block, we have to arrange 11 different things, which can be done in 11! ways.

v.

vi.

Considering the five vowels in given letter -E, U, A, I, O as a block, we have 8 things having 2 alike things (T's). So this can be arranged in 8!/2! = 4. 7! ways. Now within the block, 5 different vowels can be arranged in 5! ways. Hence required number of arrangements is 4. 7!5! ways. If order of five vowels has to remain unchanged, we can consider them like five alike things, so only one ordering is possible. Thus we have 12 things of which 2 are alike and 5 are alike. Hence required number of arrangements is 12!/[2! 5!]

Circular Permutations
In general, the number of ways of arranging n objects around a round table is (n-1)! An easier way of thinking is that we "fix" the position of a particular person at the table. Then the remaining n -1 persons can be seated in (n-1)! ways. Done! Thus the number of ways of arranging n persons along a round table so that no person has the same two neighbours is(n-1)!/2 Similarly in forming a necklace or a garland there is no distinction between a clockwise and anti clockwise direction because we can simply turn it over so that clockwise becomes anti clockwise and vice versa. Hence the number of necklaces formed with n beads of different colours = (n-1)!/2 Illustrative Examples Example In how many ways can 3 men and 3 women be seated at a round table if

i. ii. iii. iv. v. vi.

no restriction is imposed each woman is to be between two men two particular women must sit together two particular women must not sit together all women must sit together there is exactly one person between two particular women?

Solution i. ii. iii. Total six persons can be seated at a round table in 5! = 120 ways. Three men can be seated first at the round table in 2! = 2 ways. Then the three women can be seated in 3 gaps in 3! = 6 ways. Hence the required number of ways = 2 x 6 = 12 Temporarily treating two particular women as one big fat woman, five persons can be seated at a round table in 4! = 24 ways. However these two women can be arranged within themselves in 2! = 2 ways. Hence the required number of arrangements = 24 x 2 = 48 As out of total 120 arrangements, there are 48 ways in which these two women sit together, the required number of arrangements = 120 -48 = 72 Temporarily treating three women as one person, four persons can be arranged at round table in 3! = 6 ways. Further, these 3 women can be arranged among themselves in 3! = 6 ways. Hence the required number of arrangements is 6 x 6 = 36 Temporarily leave aside two particular women. The remaining 4 persons can be seated in 3! = 6 ways. Now these two particular women may be seated "around" any of 4 persons, and further the two can be arranged within themselves in 2 ways. Hence the required number of arrangements is 24 x 6 = 48

Example i. ii. A cat invites 3 rats and 4 cockroaches for dinner. How many seating arrangements are possible along a round table? Assume that animals of a species all look alike, though they will be deeply offended at this assumption. If m indistinguishable men from Mars and n indistinguishable women from Venus sit around a round table, how many possible seating arrangements are there?

Solution i. "Fix" the position of the cat. Now remaining 3 rats and 4 cockroaches can be seated in 7!/(3! 4!) = 35 ways. Important. You may think that the formula (m -n -1)!/[m! n!] should work in such cases. Try putting m = 3, n = 3, you get 5!/[3! 3!] = 10/3, which is a fraction! In general, there is no formula for circular permutations where all items are repeated. However, even if a single item is there which is not repeated, we can "fix" its position and then find permutations of all remaining items.

Combinations - Some important results

1. If out of n different things, any number of items can be chosen, it can be done in nC0
+nC1 +nC2 +... +nCn ways. Alternatively, any of n items may or may not be chosen. Hence number of selections = 22...n times = 2n => nC0 +nC1 +... +nCn = 2n. It can be shown that nC0 +nC2 +nC4 +... = nC1 +nC3 +nC4 +... = 2n-1. Out of n different things, at least one (or more) can be chosen in 2n -1 ways. Number of combinations of n different things taken r at a time when p particular things always occur is n -pCr -p. Number of permutations of these is n -pCr -p.r! Number of combinations of n different things taken r at a time when p particular things never occur is n-pCr. Number of permutations of these is n -pCr.r! The number of ways in which m +n different things can be divided into two groups containing m and n things respectively is (m +n)!/[m!n!]. The reason is that whenever you choose a group of m out of m +n, a group of n is automatically left behind. Number of combinations of m +n things taken m at a time is n +m Cm = (m +n)!/[m! (m +n -1)!] = (m + n)!/[m! n!] If subgroups are equal i.e. n = m, then 2m things can be divided into two groups of m each in (2m)!/(m!) ways. If you distribute things to two persons, then this formula gives number of subdivisions. If it is possible to interchange the two groups then number of divisions is (2m)!/[(m!).2!] Number of division of m +n +p things into groups of m, n, p things respectively is (m +n +p)!/[m!.n!.p!] If 3m things are divided into 3 equal groups, then number of divisions is (3m)!/(m!) and if the groups are interchangeable, the number of divisions is (3m)!/[(m!).3!] If there are p +q +r things, where p things are alike, q things are alike and r things are alike, a non-empty selection can be made in (p +1)(q +1)(r +1) -1 ways as 0, 1, 2, ..., p items of p may be chosen; 0, 1, 2, ..., q items of q may be chosen etc. If there are p +q +r things, where p things are alike, q things are alike and remaining r are all different, then a non-empty selection can be made in (p +1)(q +1). 2r -1 ways.

Illustrative Examples Example

In how many ways can final eleven be selected from 15 cricket players if i. ii. iii. iv. there is no restriction one of them must be included one of them, who is in bad form, must always be excluded two of them being leg spinners, one and only one leg spinner must be included?

Solution

i. ii. iii. iv.

11 players can be selected out of 15 in 15C11 ways = 15C4 = (15.14.13.12) / (1.2.3.4) = 1365 ways. Since a particular player must be included, we have to select 10 more out of remaining 14 players. This can be done in 14 C10 = 14C4 = (14.13.12.11)/(1.2.3.4) = 1001 ways. Since a particular player must be always excluded, we have to choose 11 players out of remaining 14. This can be done in 14 C11 ways = 14C3 = (14.13.12)/(1.2.3) = 364 ways. One leg spinner can be chosen out of 2 in C1 = 2 ways. Then we have to select 10 more players out of 13 (because second leg spinner can't be included). This can be done in 13 C10 ways = 13C3 = (13.12.11)/(1.2.3) = 286 ways. Thus required number of combinations = 2286 = 572

Example Out of 5 boys and 4 girls, a committee of 5 is to be formed so as to include no more than 2 girls. In how many ways can it be done? Solution We may choose 5 boys and no girl in 5C5.4C0 = 11 = 1 way only. We may choose 4 boys and 1 girl in 5C4 .4C1 = 5C1.4C1 = 54 = 20 ways. We may choose 3 boys and 2 girls in 5C3.4C2 = 106 = 60 ways. Hence required number of combinations = 1 +20 +60 = 81. Example i. ii. Find the number of ways in which 18 different objects can be divided into three groups each containing 6 objects. Find the number of ways in which 18 different objects can be distributed equally among 3 persons.

Solution i. ii. If 18 different objects are to be divided into 3 groups of 6 each and the order of groups is not important, number of ways of doing so = 18!/[(6!).3!] If 18 different objects are to be distributed 6 each to 3 persons, it can be done in 18!/ (6!) ways.

Example There are 15 points in a plane, no three of which are in the same straight line except 4 which are collinear. Find the number of i. ii. straight lines triangles formed by joining them.

Solution

i.

ii.

If no three points out of 15 points lie on a line, then the number of lines is 15C2 as exactly one line is drawn through two points. Since 4 out of 15 points are collinear, they from only one line instead of 4C2 lines. Hence the number of lines gets decreased by 4C2 -1. Hence the required number of lines = 15C2 -(4C2 -1) = 105 -6 +1 = 100 A triangle is formed by joining 3 non-collinear points. So if the 15 points are all noncollinear, 15C3 triangles can be formed. But here 4 points lie on a line and form no

triangle instead of 4C3. Thus the required number of triangles = 15C3 -4C3 = 455 -4 = 451 Example Find the number of (i) combinations (ii) permutations of four letters taken from the word EXAMINATION. Solution The word examination consists of 11 letters (AA), (II), (NN), E, X, M, T, O. The following combinations are possible: (a) 2 alike, 2 alike:C2 = 3 ways (b) 2 alike, 2 different:C17C2 = 63 ways (c) all 4 different: 8C4 = 70 ways Hence required number of combinations = 3 +63 +70 = 136. To find the number of permutations: In (a), the number of permutations = 34!/[2!2!] = 18 In (b), the number of permutations = 634!/2! = 756 In (c), the number of permutations = 704!= 1680 Hence required number of permutations = 18 +756 +1680 = 2454.

Compound Interest and Depreciation

Interest: It is the additional money besides the original money paid by the borrower to the money lender in lieu of the money used. Principal: The money borrowed (or the money lent) is called principal. Amount: The sum of the principal and the interest is called amount. Thus, amount = principal +interest. Rate: It is the interest paid on Rs 100 for a specified period. Time: It is the time for which the money is borrowed. Simple Interest: It is the interest calculated on the original money (principal) for any given time and rate. Formula: Simple Interest = (Principal x Rate x time)/100 Compound interest Compound interest (abbreviated C.I.) can be easily calculated by the following formula:

A=P where A is the final amount, P is the principal, r is the rate of interest compounded yearly and n is the number of years.

C.I. = A -P = Remark. Interest may be converted into principal annually, semiannually, quarterly, monthly etc. The number of times interest is converted into principal in a year is called the frequency of conversion, and the period of time between two conversions is called the conversion period or interest period. Thus "rate of 5%" means a rate of 5% compounded annually; 12% compounded semi-annually means that each interest period of 6 months earns an interest of 6%. Thus the rate of interest per interest period is r = (annual rate of interest) / (frequency of conversion) and the number of interest periods is n = (given number of years) x (frequency of conversion). In solving problems on compound interest, remember the following:

1. A = P and C.I. = where A is the final amount, P is the principal, r is the rate of interest compounded yearly (or every interest period) and n is the number of years (or terms of the interest period).

2. When the interest rates for the successive fixed periods are r1 %, r2 %, r3 %, ..., then the final amount A is given by A= 3. S.I. (simple interest) and C.I. are equal for the first year (or the first term of the interest period) on the same sum and at the same rate. 4. C.I. of 2nd year (or the second term of the interest period) is more than the C.I. of Ist year (or the first term of the interest period), and C.I. of 2nd year -C.I. of Ist year = S.I. on the interest of the first year. 5. Equivalent, nominal and effective rates of interest Two annual rates of interest with different conversion periods are called equivalent if they yield the same compound amount at the end of the year. For example, consider an amount of Rs 10,000 invested at 4% interest compounded quarterly. So, the amount at the end of one year = 10000(101)4 = 10406. This is equivalent to interest of 406% compounded annually because 10000(10406) = 10406. When interest is compounded more than once in a year, the given annual rate is called nominal rate or nominal annual rate. The rate of interest actually earned is called effective rate. In the above example, nominal rate is 4% while effective rate is 406%. If nominal rate is r% compounded p times in year, then effective rate of interest is

6. Present value or present worth of a sum of Rs P due n years hence at r% compound interest is

All fixed assets such as machinery, building, furniture etc. gradually diminish in value as they get older and become worn out by constant use in business. Depreciation is the term used to describe this decrease in book value of an asset. There are a number of methods of calculating depreciation. However, the most common method which is also approved by income tax authorities, is the Diminishing Balance Method. Here each years depreciation is calculated on the book value (i.e., depreciated value) of the asset at the beginning of the year rather than original cost. Note that as the

book value decreases every year, the amount of depreciation also decreases every year. Therefore, this method is also called Reducing Instalment Method or "Written Down Value Method". If the rate of depreciation is i% per year and the initial value of the asset is P, the depreciated

value at the end of n years is

and the amount of depreciation is

. If n is large, log tables should be used for calculation. The number of years a machine can be effectively used is called its life span. After that it is sold as waste or scrap. Illustrative Examples Example Find the compound amount of Rs 1500 for 6 years 7 months, at 52% compounded semi annually. Solution

Using formula, we could find the value of But in these kinds of problems, generally we use compound interest for full interest period and simple interest for fractional interest period. Here we find compound interest for 13 interest periods and simple interest for 1 month. Required compound amount

A = 1500 =1500(1026)13(10043) Taking logs, log A = log 1500 +13 log (1026) +log (10043) = 31761 +13(00112) +00017) = 33234. A = antilog (33234) = 2144 Thus the required compound amount is Rs 2144. Example The simple interest in 3 years and the compound interest in 2 years on a certain sum at the same rate are Rs 1200 and Rs 832 respectively. Find (i) the rate of interest. (ii) the principal. (iii) the difference between the C.I. and S.I. for 3 years. Solution

i.

Let the principal be Rs P and rate of interest be R% p.a. According to the first condition of the question, (P x R x 3)/100 = 1200 => P x R = 40000 ... (1) According to the second condition of the question,

=> => => 4[(100) +R +2. 100. R -(100)] = 832 R => R +200 R = 208 R => R +200 R -208 R = 0 => R -8R = 0 => R(R -8) = 0 => either R = 0 or R -8 = 0

ii.

iii.

=> either R = 0 or R = 8, but R cannot be zero. Hence the rate of interest = 8% p.a. On using (1), we get P x 8 = 40000, so P = 5000 Rate of compound interest = 8% p.a. and principal = Rs 5000

Amount due after 3 years = Rs 5000 x

= Rs 5000 x = Rs 629856 Hence C.I. for 3 years = A -P = Rs 629856 -Rs 5000 = Rs 129856 The difference between the C.I. and S.I. for 3 years = Rs 129856 -Rs 1200 = Rs 9856 Example The population of an industrial town is increasing by 5% every year. If the present population is 1 million, estimate the population five years hence. Also estimate the population three years ago. Solution Present population, P = 1 million, rate of increase = 5% per annum

Hence population after 5 years =

= 1000000 = 1276280

= 1000000 (105)5

Population three years ago = Example

= 863838.

Avichal Publishers buy a machine for Rs 20000. The rate of depreciation is 10%. Find the depreciated value of the machine after 3 years. Also find the amount of depreciation. What is the average rate of depreciation? Solution Original value of machine = Rs 20000, Rate of depreciation, i = 10%

Hence the book value after 3 years = 20000 = 20000 (09) = 20000 (0729) = Rs 14580. Amount of depreciation in 3 years = Rs 20000 -Rs 14580 = Rs 5420 Average rate of depreciation in 3 years = (5420/20000) x (100/3) = 9033% Exercise 1.

Index Numbers

Index number is a specialized average designed to measure the change in the level of an activity or item, either with respect to time or geographic location or some other characteristic. It is described either as a ratio or a percentage. For example, when we say that consumer price index for 1998 is 175 compared to 1991, it means that consumer prices have risen by 75% over these seven years. Wholesale Price Index(WPI) and Consumer Price Index (CPI) are widely used terms. They indicate the inflation rates, and also changes in standard of living. Consumer price index is based on prices of five sets of items - Food, Housing (Rent), Household goods, Fuel and light, and Miscellaneous. Each item is based on study of a number of items - e.g. Food includes Rice, Wheat, Dal, Milk, and so on. Methods of constructing index numbers Price Relative means the ratio of price of a certain item in current year to the price of that item in base year, expressed as a percentage (i.e. Price Relative = (p2/p1)100). For example, if a colour TV cost Rs 12000 in 1981 and Rs. 18000 in 1998, the price relative is (18000/12000)100 = 150. Generally instead of one item, rates of a number of items are given, for current year as well as for base year. Sometimes different weights, or quantities are also given for those items. There are a number of ways to calculate index numbers in such cases. Unweighted index numbers

1. Simple Aggregative

2. Simple Average of Price Relatives

Weighted (or Arithmetic Mean method)

1. Weighted Aggregative

2. Weighted Average of Price Relatives

where I = (p2/p1)100 Illustrative Examples Example During a certain period, the cost of living index number goes from 110 to 200 and the salary of a worker is also raised from Rs 325 to Rs. 500. Does the worker really gains or loses, and by how much amount in real terms? Solution Real wage = [(Actual wage)/(cost of living index)] 100 So real wage of Rs 325 = (325/110) 100 = Rs 29545 and real wage of Rs 500 = (500/200) 100 = Rs 250 So the worker actually loses, i.e. Rs (29545 -250) = Rs 4545 in real terms. Example

With price index of 1991 as 100, the cost of living index for 1996 is 160 and for 1997 is 180. The salary of an employee increased from Rs 5000 in 1996 to Rs 5500 in 1997. Find out whether the real income in 1997 has increased or decreased as compared to 1996. Also calculate if any extra dearness allowance should be paid to him to compensate for loss. Also calculate purchasing power of rupee in 1996 and 1997. Solution The price relative of 1997 compared to 1996 is I = (p2/p1)100 = (180/160)100 = 11250. Hence the wages of Rs 5500 in 1997 are equal to wages of (5500100)/112.50 = Rs 4889 in 1996. Thus we find that real income in 1997 has decreased compared to 1996. Now let us assume that Rs x extra dearness allowance is paid to compensate for this loss. Hence (5500+x)/180 = 5000/160 => x = Rs 125 Now purchasing power of a rupee is defined as Purchasing power = (Index number for base year)/(Index number for current year) So purchasing power of rupee in 1996 compared to 1991 is Rs 100/160 = paise (100/160) 100 = 625 paise 62 paise Purchasing power of rupee in 1997 compared to 1991 is Rs = 100/180 paise = (100 100)/180 = 5555 paise 56 paise Thus we see that due to inflation (price rise), the purchasing power of rupee is falling. Example Using 1985 as base year, the index numbers for the price of a commodity in 1986 and 1987 are 118 and 125. Calculate the index numbers for 1985 and 1987 if 1986 is taken as the base year. Solution Let p1, p2, p3 be prices in 1985, 1986, 1987. Then p1/p2 100 = 118 and p3/p2 ; 100 = 125 Now price index of 1985 with 1986 as base = p1/p2 100 = (100/118) 100 = 8475 Price index of 1987 with 1986 as base

= This procedure is called shifting of base. Exercise 1. Find by simple aggregate method, the index number of the following data: Commodity Rice Oil Sugar wheat Fish Base Price 140 400 100 125 200 Current Price 180 550 250 150 300

Shares, Stock and Debentures

To start any big business (company or industry), a large sum of money is needed and, in general, it is not possible for an individual to invest such a large amount. Then some persons, interested in the business, join together and form a company called joint stock company. They divide the estimated money required into small parts. Each such part is called a share. A share may have value Rs 5, Rs 10, Rs 25, Rs 100 etc. Each person who purchases one or more shares is called a share-

holder The original value of a share is called its nominal value (abbreviated N.V.) or face value or printed value. The price of a share at any time is called its market value (abbreviated M.V.) or cash value. If the market value of a share is the same as its nominal value, the share is called at par. If the market value of a share is more than its nominal value, the share is called at premium or above par. If a share of (face value) Rs 100 is selling at Rs 135, then it is said to be selling at a premium of Rs 35 or at Rs 35 above par. If the market value of a share is less than its nominal value, the share is called at discount or below par. If a share of Rs 100 is selling at Rs 88, then it is said to be selling at a discount of Rs 12 or at Rs 12 below par. 6. The profit which a share holder gets for his investment from the company is called dividend. The dividend is always expressed as the percentage of the face value of the share. The dividend is always given (by the company) on the face value of the share irrespective of the market value of the share.

Shares are of two types: (i) Preferred shares (ii) Common shares or ordinary shares. Preferred shares carry a provision that dividend of a specific percent must be paid to preferred shareholders before any dividend is paid to common shareholders. Note that there is no guarantee of any returns; even preferred shareholders will get some dividend only if the company has some profits after paying for all expenses and taxes. Quotations: "Shares of 15% at Rs 145" means that (1) the face value of 1 share is Rs 100. (2) the market value of 1 share is Rs 145. (3) the dividend (profit) on 1 share is Rs 15 per annum. (4) the income on Rs 145 is Rs 15 for one year. STOCK Joint stock companies or the government can also raise loans from the market by issuing bonds or promisory notes. They promise to pay a fixed amount (called redemption value) on a future date and interest payments at fixed periods until that time. The money paid to company or government for buying such bonds is called stock. However, even before redemption date, the stock can be sold and purchased in open market, and the rate varies, just like shares. Note that stock can be bought or sold in fractions, unlike shares. Brokerage Stocks and shares are sold and purchased in share market through stockbrokers, and their charges are called brokers commission or brokerage. Brokerage is usually calculated as percentage of face value (not market value or sale/purchase value), unless given otherwise. Note that: (i) Brokerage is added to market value while purchasing stock/shares. (ii) Brokerage is deducted from market value while selling. Thus a Rs 100 stock at 95 and brokerage % means that a buyer will spend Rs to

buy a Rs 100 stock, while a seller will get Rs . The difference between these prices shows profit margin of the broker. In real life, however, brokers use the formula which is beneficial to them. If a share of Rs 100 is selling at Rs 300, they will calculate brokerage as percentage of sale value; if a share of Rs 10 is being sold at Rs 2, they may charge a fixed brokerage of 20 paise per share; if a debenture of Rs 100 is being sold at Rs 80, they will charge brokerage as percentage of face value! DEBENTURES To meet working expenses, a company may borrow money from the public/shareholders by issuing debentures. They promise a fixed rate of interest for a fixed period. The main difference between stock/shares and debentures is that debentures give a fixed return, whether the company is in losses or profit. Also note that shares form a part of the capital of the company whereas debentures are debt taken by the company. Illustrative Examples Example

A man invests Rs 11200 in a company paying 6% dividend when its Rs 100 shares can be bought for Rs 140. Find i. ii. his annual income his percentage income on his investment.

Solution i. Since Rs 100 share can be bought for Rs 140, if the investment is Rs 140, income = Rs 6 if the investment is Re 1, income = Rs 6/140 if the investment is Rs 11200, income = Rs (6/140)11200 = Rs 480 Rs 480 is the income on Rs 11200, percentage of income =(480/11200)100% = 30/7 % = Example Mr. Singh invested Rs 8000 in 7% hundred-rupee shares at Rs 80. After a year he sold these shares at Rs 75 each and invested the proceeds in 18% twenty five-rupee shares at Rs 41 each. Find i. ii. iii. his gain or loss after a year. his annual income from the second investment. the percentage of increase in return on his original investment.

ii.

Solution i. Since Mr. Singh invested Rs 8000 at Rs 80 each, the number of shares bought by Mr. Singh = 8000/80 = 100 Dividend received on one share = 7% of Rs 100 = Rs 7 Hence the total dividend received after one year = Rs 7100 = Rs 700 As Mr. Singh sold his shares at Rs 75 each, the sale value of his shares = Rs 75100 = Rs 7500 The amount received (proceeds) after a year = Dividend received on shares +sale value of shares = Rs 700 +Rs 7500 = Rs 8200 Gain after a year = proceeds -investment = Rs 8200 -Rs 8000 = Rs 200 Since Mr. Singh invested his proceeds i.e. Rs 8200 in twenty-five rupee shares at Rs 41 each, the number of shares bought = 8200/41 = 200 Dividend received on one share = 18% of Rs 25 = Rs (18/100)25 = Rs 4.75 Total dividend received on his second investment = Rs 4.75200 = Rs 900 The increase in return = dividend on second investment -dividend on first investment = Rs 900 -Rs 700 = Rs 200 The percentage of increase in return on his original investment = (200/8000)100% = 25%

Example A company is authorised to issue 1 lac shares of face value Rs 100 each. It decides to issue 70000 shares in first instance. It fixes application money as Rs 40, allotment money as Rs 30 and first and second calls as Rs 15 each. The company receives applications for 50000 shares only. At a given time if investors holding 6000 shares have not paid first call money and investors holding 4000 shares have not paid second call money, describe various types of capital. Solution Authorised capital = 1 lac 100 = Rs 1 crore Issued capital = 70000 100 = Rs 70 lacs Subscribed capital = 50000 100 = Rs 50 lacs As both calls have been issued,

Called up capital = Rs 50 lacs Uncalled capital = 0 Paid up capital = 40000100 + 600070 + 400085 = Rs 47,60,000 Unpaid capital (or calls in arrear) = 600030 + 400015 = Rs 2,40,000 Example A man sold Rs 4500 of 3% stock. He sold the stock at 87 and invested the proceeds in 4% stock at 98. Find the change in his annual income. (Brokerage = %) Solution Since the man holds Rs 4500 stock at 3%, his annual income = Rs (3/100)4500 = Rs 135 Since he sells this stock at 87, brokerage %, money received by selling this stock = Rs 87.50(4500/100) = Rs 393750 Now in new stock, investment of Rs 99 (i.e. 98 + )earns a return of Rs 4. Hence investment of Rs 393750 will earn an income of = Rs (4/99)3937.50 = Rs 15909 Hence, increase in annual income = Rs 15909 -Rs 135 = Rs 2409 Example A small investor holds some 6% preference shares quoting at 112 "cum-div". If he sells just after getting the dividend, what price would he get? What amount would he realise if he holds 50 shares? Solution Note that "ex-div" means "without dividend" and "cum-div" means including dividend. Thus cum-div price = ex-div price +dividend As cum-div price is Rs 112, the ex-div price after claiming the 6% dividend is Rs 112 -Rs 6 = Rs 106. Also, the amount realised by selling 50 shares = Rs 10650 = Rs 5300 Example A company has a total capital of Rs 2 crores divided equally into preference shares of 6% and ordinary shares, each of face value Rs 100. It gives an annual dividend of Rs 10 lacs. If a person holds 100 preference shares and 200 ordinary shares, how much dividend does he receive? Solution As the total capital is Rs 2 crores, the number of preference shares = (1 crore)/100 = 1 lac, and the number of ordinary shares is also 1 lac. Hence total dividend paid to 6% preference shareholders = 1 lac 6 = Rs 6 lac Dividend paid to ordinary shareholders = Rs 10 lac -Rs 6 lac = Rs 4 lac Dividend paid to ordinary shareholders = (4 lac)/(1 lac) % = 4% Thus the dividend received by a person holding 100 preference shares and 200 ordinary shares = Rs (1006 + 2004) = Rs 1400 Exercise 1. At what price should a 625% Rs 100 share be quoted when the money is worth 5%? 2. At what price should a 625% Rs 50 share be quoted when the money is worth 10%? 3.
