Number Systems
 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + … + n = n(n + 1)/2
 (1² + 2² + 3² + ….. + n²) = n ( n + 1 ) (2n + 1) / 6
 (1³ + 2³ + 3³ + ….. + n³) = (n(n + 1)/ 2)²
 Sum of first n odd numbers = n²
 Sum of first n even numbers = n (n + 1)
Mathematical Formulas:
 (a – b)² = (a² + b² – 2ab)

 (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab)
 (a + b)(a – b) = (a² – b²)
 (a + b)² = (a² + b² + 2ab)
 (a + b + c)² = a² + b² + c² + 2(ab + bc + ca)
 (a³ – b³) = (a – b)(a² + ab + b²)
 (a³ + b³) = (a + b)(a² – ab + b²)
 (a³ + b³ + c³ – 3abc) = (a + b + c)(a² + b² + c² – ab – bc – ac)
 When a + b + c = 0, then a³ + b³ + c³ = 3abc
 (a + b)n = an + (nC1)an-1b + (nC2)an-2b² + … + (nCn-1)abn-1 + bn
Profit, Loss and Discount
 Profit/Gain = (S.P.) – (C.P.)

 Profit % = Profit/(C P)×100
 S P = (100+gain % )/100 ×C P
 C P = 100/(100+gain %)×S P
 Loss = (C.P.) – (S.P.)
 Loss % = Loss/(C.P.)×100
 S P = (100-loss %)/100×C P
 C P = 100/(100-loss %)×S P
LCM and HCF
LCM × HCF = Product of the Numbers
LCM of Co-prime Numbers = Product Of The Numbers
Speed, Time and Distance
Distance = Speed x Time
Time = Distance/Speed
Speed= Distance/Time
Percentages
To find what percentage of x is y: y/x × 100
Increase N by S % = N( 1+ S/100 )
Decrease N by S % = N (1 – S/100)
Time and Work
If A can do a piece of work in n days, then A’s 1 day’s work = 1/n
If A’s 1 day’s work =1/n, then A can finish the work in n days.
Averages
Average = (Sum of observations/Number of observations)
Simple and Compound Interest
Logarithm
Probability
Sample Space: When we perform an experiment, then the set S of all possible outcomes is
called the sample space.
Event: Any subset of a sample space is called an event.
The probability of Occurrence of an Event:
Let S be the sample and let E be an event.
Therefore, P(E) =n(E) / n(S)
Surds and Indices
Set Theory & Function
The Demorgan’s Law is the basic and most important formula for sets, which is defined as
(A ∩ B) ‘ = A’ U B’ and (A U B)’ = A’ ∩ B’
The relation R⊂A×AR⊂A×A is said to be called as:
 Reflexive Relation: If a R a ∀∀ a ∈∈ A.
 Symmetric Relation: If aRb, then bRa ∀∀ a, b ∈∈ A.
 Transitive Relation: If aRb, bRc, then aRc ∀∀ a, b, c ∈∈ A.
If any relation R is reflexive, symmetric and transitive in a given set A, then that relation is
known as equivalence relation.
Permutation and Combination
Permutation Formula: A permutation is the choice of r things from a set of n things without
replacement. Order matters in permutation.
Combination Formula: A combination is the choice of r things from a set of n things without
replacement. Order does not matter in combination.
Mixtures and Alligations

Alligation: It is the rule that enables us to find the ratio in which two or more ingredients at the
given price must be mixed to produce a mixture of desired price.
Mean Price: The cost of a unit quantity of the mixture is called the mean price.
Rule of Alligation:
If two ingredients are mixed, then
(Quantity of cheaper / Quantity of dearer) = (C.P. of dearer – Mean Price / Mean price –
C.P. of cheaper)
Trigonometry
Trigonometric Identities:
 Sine=Opposite/Hypotenuse
 Secant=Hypotenuse/Adjacent
 Cosine=Adjacent/Hypotenuse
 Tangent=Opposite/Adjacent
 Co−Secant=Hypotenuse/Opposite
 Co−Tangent=Adjacent/Opposite
The reciprocal identities are given as:
 CosecΘ=1/sinΘ
 secΘ=1/cosΘ
 cotΘ=1/tanΘ
 sinΘ=1/CosecΘ
 cosΘ=1/secΘ
 tanΘ=1/cotΘ
Coordinate Geometry
The Distance Between two Points A and B:
AB² = (Bx – Ax)² + (By – Ay)²
The Midpoint of a Line Joining Two Points
The midpoint of the line joining the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is:
[½(x1 + x2), ½(y1 + y2)]
The Equation of a Line Using One Point and the Gradient
The equation of a line which has gradient m and which passes through the point (x1, y1) is:
y – y1 = m(x – x1)
Mensuration
Rectangle
Area = lb
Perimeter = 2(l+b)
Square
Area = a×a
Perimeter = 4a
Triangle
Area =b×h/2 or √s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)…………….where s=a+b+c/2
Circle
Area = πr² or πd²/4
Circumference = 2πr or πd
Area of sector of a circle = (θπr² )/360
Cube
Volume: V = l3
Lateral surface area = 4a2
Surface Area: S = 6s2
Diagonal (d) = √3l
Cuboid
Volume of cuboid: lbh
Total surface area = 2 (lb + bh + hl) or 6l2
Length of diagonal =√(l²+b²+h²)
