Class 10 Maths Formulas For Arithmetic Progression (AP)

If a1, a2, a3, a4….. be the terms of an AP and d be the common difference between each term, then the sequence can be written as: a, a + d, a + 2d, a + 3d, a + 4d…… a + nd. where a is the first term and (a + nd) is the (n – 1) th term. So, the formula to calculate the nth term of AP is given as:

n^th term = a + (n-1) d

The sum for the nth term of AP where a is the 1st term, d is the common difference, and l is the last term is given as:

S_n = n/2 [2a + (n-1) d] or S_n = n/2 [a + l]

Class 10 Maths Formulas For Linear Equations

Linear equations in one, two, and three variables have the following forms:

The pair of linear equations in two variables are given as:

a₁x+b₁+c₁=0 and a₂x+b₂+c₂=0

Where a₁, b₁, c₁, & a₂, b₂, c₂ are real numbers & a₁²+b₁² ≠ 0 & a₂² + b₂² ≠ 0

Quick Note: Linear equations can also be represented in graphical form.

Trigonometry Formulas For Class 10 Maths

The Trigonometric Formulas for Class 10 covers the basic trigonometric functions for a right-angled triangle i.e. Sine (sin), Cosine (cos), and Tangent (tan) which can be used to derive Cosecant (cos), Secant (sec), and Cotangent (cot).

Let a right-angled triangle ABC is right-angled at point B and have \(\angle \theta\) is one of the other two angles.

sin θ = \(\frac{Side\, opposite\, to\, angle\, \theta}{Hypotenuse}\) = \(\frac{Perpendicular}{Hypotenuse}\) = P/H

cos θ = \(\frac{Adjacent\, side\, to\, angle\, \theta}{Hypotenuse}\) = \(\frac{Adjacent side}{Hypotenuse}\) = B/H

tan θ = \(\frac{Side\, opposite\, to\, angle\, \theta}{Adjacent\, side\, to\, angle\, \theta}\) = P/B

sec θ = \(\frac{1}{cos\, \theta }\)

cot θ = \(\frac{1}{tan\, \theta }\)

cosec θ = \(\frac{1}{sin\, \theta }\)

tan θ = \(\frac{Sin\, \theta }{Cos\, \theta }\)

The Trigonometric Table comprising the values of these trigonometric functions for standard angles is as under:

Some other trigonometric formulas are given below:

1. sin (90° – θ) = cos θ
2. cos (90° – θ) = sin θ
3. tan (90° – θ) = cot θ
4. cot (90° – θ) = tan θ
5. sec (90° – θ) = cosecθ
6. cosec (90° – θ) = secθ
7. sin²θ + cos² θ = 1
8. sec² θ = 1 + tan²θ for 0° ≤ θ < 90°
9. Cosec² θ = 1 + cot² θ for 0° ≤ θ ≤ 90°

Class 10 Maths Formulas For Algebra & Quadratic Equations

To know the algebra formulas for Class 10, first, you need to get familiar with Quadratic Equations.

\(x=-b\pm\frac{\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\)

Now you know the basic quadratic equation.

Let us now go through the list of algebra formulas for Class 10:

1. (a+b)² = a² + b² + 2ab
2. (a-b)² = a² + b² – 2ab
3. (a+b) (a-b) = a² – b²
4. (x + a)(x + b) = x² + (a + b)x + ab
5. (x + a)(x – b) = x² + (a – b)x – ab
6. (a + b)³ = a³ + b³ + 3ab(a + b)
7. (a – b)³ = a³ – b³ – 3ab(a – b)
8. (x – a)(x + b) = x² + (b – a)x – ab
9. (x – a)(x – b) = x² – (a + b)x + ab
10. (x + y + z)² = x² + y² + z² + 2xy + 2yz + 2xz
11. (x + y – z)² = x² + y² + z² + 2xy – 2yz – 2xz
12. (x – y + z)² = x² + y² + z² – 2xy – 2yz + 2xz
13. (x – y – z)² = x² + y² + z² – 2xy + 2yz – 2xz
14. x³ + y³ + z³ – 3xyz = (x + y + z)(x2 + y2 + z2 – xy – yz -xz)
15. x² + y² =½ [(x + y)² + (x – y)²]
16. (x + a) (x + b) (x + c) = x³ + (a + b +c)x² + (ab + bc + ca)x + abc
17. x³ + y³= (x + y) (x² – xy + y²)
18. x³ – y³ = (x – y) (x² + xy + y²)
19. x² + y² + z² -xy – yz – zx = ½ [(x-y)² + (y-z)² + (z-x)²]

Quick Note: These formulas will be important in higher classes and various comeptitive examninations. So, memorize them and understand them well.

Class 10 Maths Formulas For Statistics

Statistics in Class 10 is majorly about finding the Mean, Median, and Mode of the given data. The statistic formulas are given below:

(I) The Mean of Grouped Data can be found by 3 methods.

1. Direct Method: x̅ = \(\frac{\sum_{i=1}^{n}f_{i}x_{i}}{\sum_{i=1}^{n}f_{i}}\), where f_i x_i is the sum of observations for i = 1 to n And f_i is the number of observations for i = 1 to n
2. Assumed Mean Method : x̅ = a+\(\frac{\sum_{i=1}^{n}f_{i}d_{i}}{\sum_{i=1}^{n}f_{i}}\)
3. Step Deviation Method : x̅ = a+\(\frac{\sum_{i=1}^{n}f_{i}u_{i}}{\sum_{i=1}^{n}f_{i}}\times h\)

(II) The Mode of Grouped Data: Mode = l +\(\frac{f_{i}-f_{0}}{2f_{1}-f_{0}-f_{2}}\times h\)

(III) The median for a grouped data: Median = l+\(\frac{\frac{n}{2}-cf}{f}\times h\)
