1. Sets
A ∪ B = {x : x ∈ A or x ∈ B}A ∩ B = {x : x ∈ A and x ∈ B}
A − B = {x : x ∈ A and x ∉ B}
A′ = U − A
n(A ∪ B) = n(A) + n(B) − n(A ∩ B)
n(A ∪ B ∪ C) = n(A) + n(B) + n(C) − n(A ∩ B) − n(B ∩ C) − n(C ∩ A) + n(A ∩ B ∩ C)
n(A′) = n(U) − n(A)
n(A − B) = n(A) − n(A ∩ B)
De Morgan's Laws:
(A ∪ B)′ = A′ ∩ B′
(A ∩ B)′ = A′ ∪ B′
Number of subsets:
If n(A) = n, then number of subsets = 2n
Number of proper subsets = 2n − 1
2. Relations & Functions
Cartesian Product:A × B = {(a,b) : a ∈ A, b ∈ B}
If n(A) = m and n(B) = n:
n(A × B) = mn
Number of relations:
Number of relations from A to B = 2mn
Number of functions:
Number of functions from A to B = nm
Composition:
(f ∘ g)(x) = f(g(x))
(g ∘ f)(x) = g(f(x))
Identity function:
f(x) = x
3. Principle of Mathematical Induction
For proving P(n):1. Base Case: Prove P(1) is true.
2. Induction Hypothesis: Assume P(k) is true.
3. Induction Step: Prove P(k + 1) is true.
Therefore, P(n) is true for all n ∈ N.
4. Complex Numbers & Quadratic Equations
i = √−1i2 = −1
i3 = −i
i4 = 1
i4n = 1
i4n+1 = i
i4n+2 = −1
i4n+3 = −i
Complex number:
z = a + ib
Real part = Re(z) = a
Imaginary part = Im(z) = b
Conjugate:
z̄ = a − ib
Modulus:
|z| = √(a2 + b2)
z × z̄ = |z|2
Quadratic equation:
ax2 + bx + c = 0, a ≠ 0
Roots:
x = (−b ± √(b2 − 4ac)) / 2a
Discriminant:
D = b2 − 4ac
D > 0 → two distinct real roots
D = 0 → equal real roots
D < 0 → non-real roots
Sum of roots:
α + β = −b/a
Product of roots:
αβ = c/a
Quadratic equation with roots α, β:
x2 − (α + β)x + αβ = 0
5. Linear Inequalities
For ax + b > 0:If a > 0 → x > −b/a
If a < 0 → x < −b/a
Important: Multiplying or dividing an inequality by a negative number reverses the inequality sign.
a > b → −a < −b
a < b → −a > −b
6. Permutations & Combinations
Factorial:n! = n(n − 1)(n − 2) ... 3 × 2 × 1
0! = 1
Permutation:
nPr = n!/(n − r)!
Combination:
nCr = n!/[r!(n − r)!]
nPr = r! × nCr
nCr = nCn−r
nC0 = nCn = 1
nCr + nCr−1 = n+1Cr
Circular permutation:
Number of arrangements of n distinct objects in a circle = (n − 1)!
7. Binomial Theorem
(a + b)n = Σ nCr an−rbrGeneral term:
Tr+1 = nCr an−rbr
First term:
T1 = an
Last term:
Tn+1 = bn
Middle term:
If n is even:
Middle term = Tn/2 + 1
If n is odd:
Two middle terms are
T(n+1)/2 and T(n+3)/2
Important:
nC0 + nC1 + ... + nCn = 2n
nC0 − nC1 + nC2 − ... = 0
8. Sequences & Series
Arithmetic Progression (AP):a, a + d, a + 2d, a + 3d, ...
nth term:
an = a + (n − 1)d
Sum of first n terms:
Sn = n/2 [2a + (n − 1)d]
Also,
Sn = n/2(a + l)
where l = last term.
Arithmetic Mean:
AM = (a + b)/2
Geometric Progression (GP):
a, ar, ar2, ar3, ...
nth term:
an = arn−1
Sum of first n terms:
Sn = a(rn − 1)/(r − 1), r ≠ 1
or
Sn = a(1 − rn)/(1 − r)
Sum of infinite GP:
S∞ = a/(1 − r), |r| < 1
Geometric Mean:
GM = √ab
For positive a and b:
AM ≥ GM
(a + b)/2 ≥ √ab
Useful sums:
1 + 2 + 3 + ... + n = n(n + 1)/2
12 + 22 + 32 + ... + n2 = n(n + 1)(2n + 1)/6
13 + 23 + 33 + ... + n3 = [n(n + 1)/2]2
Conditions: factorial and binomial formulas use non-negative integer n and 0 ≤ r ≤ n; the alternating binomial sum is zero for n ≥ 1. The real geometric mean √(ab) here is for non-negative a and b. Circular arrangements identify rotations, not reflections.
