c. Steps for calculation of interest:
i. Find the minimum balance of each month between 10th day and the last day.
ii. Add all the balances. This is the Equivalent Monthly Principal for 1 month.
iii. Calculate the SI on the Equivalent Monthly Principal with T =
years.
iv. No interest is paid for the month in which the account is closed.
v. If the Amount Received on closing is asked, add the interest to the LAST BALANCE
and not to the Equivalent Monthly Principal.

Quadratic Equations:
1. Quadratic equation is an equation with one variable, the highest power of the variable is 2.
2. Some useful results:
a) (a + b)2 = a2 + b2 + 2ab
b) (a - b)2 = a2 + b2 - 2ab
c) a 2 b2= (a + b) (a b)
d) (a + b)2 - (a - b)2 = 4ab
e) (a + b)3 = a3 + b3 + 3ab(a + b)
f) (a - b)3 = a3 - b3 - 3ab(a - b)

A ratio is a comparison of the sizes of two or more quantities of the same kind by division. Since ratio
is a number, so it has no units.
To find the ratio between two quantities, change them to the same units.

Sub-triplicate ratio of a : b is
Reciprocal ratio of a : b is b : a
Invertendo - If a : b = c : d, then b : a = d : c
Alternendo - If a : b = c : d, then a : c = b : d
Componendo - If a : b = c : d, then a + b : b = c + d : d
Dividendo - If a : b = c : d, then a - b : b = c - d : d
2. If the remainder on dividing a polynomial f (x) by (x a), f (a) = 0, then (x - a) is a factor of f (x).
3. When f (x) is divided by (ax + b), then remainder is f
4. When f (x) is divided by (ax - b), then remainder is f

Loci:
The locus is the set of all points which satisfy the given geometrical condition.
Locus of a point equidistant from 2 fixed points is
Locus of a point equidistant from 2 intersecting lines is angle bisector between the lines.
Locus of a point at a constant distance from a fixed point is circle.
Locus of a point equidistant from a given line is a pair of lines parallel to the given line and at the
given distance from it.
For equilateral triangle, centroid = incentre = circumcentre = orthocentre
Circle:
A line drawn from centre of a circle to bisect the chord is
to the chord.
A perpendicular line drawn to a chord from the centre of the circle bisects the chord.
The
One and only one circle can be drawn passing through 3 non-collinear points.
Equal chords are equidistant from the centre.
11
Chords which are equidistant from the centre are equal in length.
If the parallel chords are drawn in a circle, then the line through the midpoints of the chords passes
through the centre.
Greater the size of chord, lesser is its distance from the centre.
Angle at the centre = 2 angle on the circumference.
Angles in the same segment are equal.
Angle in a semicircle is a right angle.
The opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary.
If the opposite angles of a quadrilateral are supplementary, then the quadrilateral is cyclic.
Angle in the major segment is acute and in the minor segment is obtuse.
Exterior angle of a cyclic quadrilateral = Interior opposite angle.
In equal or same circle. If two arcs subtend equal angle at the centre, then they are equal.
In equal circle, if two arcs are equal, then they subtend equal angle at the centre.
In equal circle, if two chords are equal, they cut off equal arcs.
In equal circle, if two arcs are equal, the chords of the arcs are also equal.
The tangent at any point of a circle & the radius through this point are
to each other.

Probability:
Probability is a measure of uncertainty.
An Experiment is an action which results in some (well-defined) outcomes.
Sample space is the collection of all possible outcomes of an experiment. n(S)
An Event is a subset of the sample space associated with a random experiment. n(E)
An Event occurs when the outcome of an experiment satisfies the condition mentioned in the event.
The outcomes which ensure the occurrence of an event are called favourable outcomes to that event.
The probability of an event E, written as P(E), is defined as P (E) =
P(E) =
The value of probability is always between 0 and 1.
The probability of sure (certain) event is 1.
The probability of an impossible event is 0.
An elementary event is an event which has one (favourable) outcome from the sample space.
A Compound event is an event which has more than one outcome from the sample space.
If E is an event, then the event not E is complementary event of E and denoted by .

In a pack (deck) of playing cards, there are 52 cards which are divided into 4 suits of 13 cards each
spades (
), hearts (
), diamonds (
) and clubs (
while hearts and diamonds are of red colour. The cards in each suit are ace, king, queen, jack, 10, 9,
8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2. Kings, queens and jacks are called face (picture/court) cards. The cards bearing
number 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 are called numbered cards. Thus a pack of playing cards has 4 aces, 12
face cards and 36 numbered cards. The aces together with face cards (= 16). are called cards of
honour.
When a coin is tossed, it may show head (H) up or tail (T) up. Thus the outcomes are: {H, T}.
When two coins are tossed simultaneously, then the outcomes are: {HH, HT, TH, TT}. [n(S) = 2n]
When a die is thrown once the outcomes are: {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}.
[n(S) = 6n]
When two dice are thrown simultaneously, then the outcomes are: {(1, 1),(1, 2).(6, 6)}.
