Class 9th Mathematics Syllabus UP Board

Despite the reduction of the 30% syllabus, the syllabus of the Class 9th Mathematics UP board is quite vast. It involves a lot of topics to be covered by the students. Given below are the topics which are still included in the syllabus.

Unit – I: Number Systems (12 marks)

• Real Number
• Review of representation of natural numbers, integers, rational numbers on the number line. Representation of terminating / non-terminating recurring decimals, on the number line through successive magnification. Rational numbers as recurring/ terminating decimals.
• Examples of non-recurring / non-terminating decimals. Existence of non-rational numbers (irrational numbers) such as √2, √3 and their representation on the number line. Explaining that every real number is represented by a unique point on the number line and conversely, every point on the number line represents a unique real number.
• Existence of √ for a given positive real number x (visual proof to be emphasized).
• Definition of nth root of a real number.
• Rationalization (with precise meaning) of real numbers of the type 1/a+b√x and 1/√x+√y (and their combinations) where x and y are natural number and and b are integers
• Recall of laws of exponents with integral powers. Rational exponents with positive real bases (to be done by particular cases, allowing learner to arrive at the general laws.)

Unit – II: Algebra (22 Marks)

• Polynomials

Definition of a polynomial in one variable, with examples and counter examples. Coefficients of a polynomial, terms of a polynomial and zero polynomial. Degree of a polynomial. Constant, linear, quadratic and cubic polynomials. Monomials, binomials, trinomials. Factors and multiples. Zeros of a polynomial. Motivate and State the Remainder Theorem with examples. Statement and proof of the Factor Theorem. Factorization of ax2 + bx + c, a ≠ 0 where a, b and c are real numbers, and of cubic polynomials using the Factor Theorem. Recall of algebraic expressions and identities. Verification of identities:

(x + y + z)2 = x2 + y2 + z2 + 2xy + 2yz + 2zx and their use in factorization of polynomials.

• Linear Equations in Two Variables

Recall of linear equations in one variable. Introduction to the equation in two variables.

Focus on linear equations of the type ax + by + c = 0. Prove that a linear equation in two variables has infinitely many solutions and justify their being written ordered pairs of real numbers, plotting them and showing that they line. Graph of linear equations in two variables. Examples, problems from real life, including problems on Ratio and Proportion and with algebraic and graphical solutions being done simultaneously.

Unit III: Co-ordinate Geometry (4 Marks)

• Cartesian plane, coordinates of a point, names and terms related to the Cartesian plane, symbols.

Unit IV: Geometry (16 marks)

Lines and Angle

• (Motivate) If a ray stands on a line, then the sum of the two adjacent angles so formed is 180o and the converse.
• (Prove) If two lines intersect, the vertically opposite angles are equal.
• (Motivate) Results on corresponding angles, alternate angles, interior angles when a transversal intersects two parallel lines.
• (Motivate) Lines which are parallel to a given line are parallel.
• (Prove) The sum of the angles of a triangle is 180o.
• (Motivate) If a side of a triangle is produced, the exterior angle so formed is equal to the sum of the two interior opposite angles.

Triangles

• (Motivate) Two triangles are congruent if any two sides and the included angle of one triangle is equal to any two sides and the included angle of the other triangle (SAS Congruence).
• (Prove) Two triangles are congruent if any two angles and the included side of one triangle is equal to any two angles and the included side of the other triangle (ASA Congruence).
• (Motivate) Two triangles are congruent if the three sides of one triangle are equal to three sides of the other triangle (SSS Congruence).
• (Motivate) Two right triangles are congruent if the hypotenuse and a side of one triangle are equal (respectively) to the hypotenuse and a side of the other triangle. (RHS Congruence)
• (Prove) The angles opposite to equal sides of a triangle are equal.
• (Motivate) The sides opposite to equal angles of a triangle are equal.
• (Motivate) Triangle inequalities and relation between ‘angle and facing side’ inequalities in triangles.

Circles

Through examples, arrive at definition of circle and related concepts-radius, circumference, diameter, chord, arc, secant, sector, segment, subtended angle.

• (Prove) Equal chords of a circle subtend equal angles at the center and (motivate) its converse.
• (Motivate) The perpendicular from the center of a circle to a chord bisects the chord and conversely, the line drawn through the center of a circle to bisect a chord is perpendicular to the chord.
• (Motivate) There is one and only one circle passing through three given non-collinear points.
• (Motivate) Equal chords of a circle (or of congruent circles) are equidistant from the center (or their respective centers) and conversely.
• (Prove) The angle subtended by an arc at the center is double the angle subtended by it at any point on the remaining part of the circle.
• (Motivate) Angles in the same segment of a circle are equal.
• (Motivate) If a line segment joining two points subtends an equal angle at two other points lying on the same side of the line containing the segment, the four points lie on a circle.
• (Motivate) The sum of either of the pair of the opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral is 180o and its converse.

Unit IV: Mensuration (12 Marks)

• Areas

Area of a triangle using Heron’s formula (without proof) and its application in finding the area of a quadrilateral.
