AP State Board Syllabus 8th Class Maths Notes Chapter 8 Exploring Geometrical Figures

→ Shapes are said to be congruent if they have same shape and size.

→ Shapes are said to be similar if they have same shapes but in different size.

→ If we flip, slide or turn the congruent/similar shapes their congruence/similarity remain the same.

AP Board 8th Class Maths Notes Chapter 8 Exploring Geometrical Figures

→ Some figures may have more than one line of symmetry.

→ Symmetry is of three types namely line symmetry, rotational symmetry and point symmetry.

→ With rotational symmetry, the figure is rotated around a central point so that it appears two or more times same as original.

→ The number of times for which it appears the same is called the order.

→ The method of drawing enlarged or reduced similar figures is called Dialation.

→ The patterns formed by repeating figures to fill a plane without gaps or overlaps are called tessellations.

→ Flip: Flip is a transformation in which a plane figure is reflected across a line, creating a mirror image of the original figure.
AP Board 8th Class Maths Notes Chapter 8 Exploring Geometrical Figures 1

→ After a figure is flipped or reflected, the distance between the line of reflection and each point on the original figure is the same as the distance between the line of reflection and the corresponding point on the mirror image.

AP Board 8th Class Maths Notes Chapter 8 Exploring Geometrical Figures

→ Rotation: “Rotation “means turning around a center.
The distance from the center to any point on the shape stays the same. Every point makes a circle around the center.
AP Board 8th Class Maths Notes Chapter 8 Exploring Geometrical Figures 2

→ Simple interest is an increase percent on the principal.

→ Simple interest (I) = [latex]\frac{P \times T \times R}{100}[/latex]
where P = Principal, T = Time inyears, R = Rate of interest.

→ Amount = Principal + Interest = P + [latex]\frac{P \times T \times R}{100}[/latex] = P[latex]\left(1+\frac{T \times R}{100}\right)[/latex]

Students can go through AP SSC 10th Class Maths Notes Chapter 13 Probability to understand and remember the concepts easily.

AP State Syllabus SSC 10th Class Maths Notes Chapter 13 Probability

→ Theory of probability has its origin date back to 16th century.

→ J. Cardan, an Italian physician and mathematician wrote the first book on probability named “The Book of Games of Chance”.

AP SSC 10th Class Maths Notes Chapter 13 Probability

→ James Bernoulli (1654 – 1705), A.De Moivre (1667 – 1754) and Pierre Simon Laplace (1749 – 1827) made significant contribution to the theory of probability.

→ Experimental or empirical probability : The probability estimated on the basis of results of an actual experiment is called experimental probability of empirical probability.
Eg : An unbiased coin is tossed for 1000 times, head turned up for 455 times and tail turned up 545 times, then the probability or likelyhood of getting a head is = [latex]\frac{455}{1000}[/latex] = 0.455.

Thus experimental probability = [latex]\frac{\text { No. of trials in which the event happened }}{\text { Total no. of trials }}[/latex]

→ Classical or Theoretical probability: Classical probability of an event (E) is defined Number as

P(E) = [latex]\frac{\text { Number of outcomes favourable to E }}{\text { No. of all possible outcomes of the experiment }}[/latex]

This definition was given by ‘Pierre Simon Laplace’.
Eg: The probability of getting a head when a coin is tossed is given by Number of outcomes favourable to this event getting a head = 1 Number of all possible outcomes of this experiment = 2 (Head, Tail)

∴ P(E) = [latex]\frac{\text { No. of favourable outcomes }}{\text { Total events }}[/latex] = [latex]\frac{1}{2}[/latex]

Note: If an experiment is conducted for many number of times, then the experimental probability may become closer and closer to theoretical probability.

  • Getting a black or red card – equally likely exhaustive events.
  • Getting an ace or king – mutually exclusive.
    AP SSC 10th Class Maths Notes Chapter 13 Probability 4
  • Getting an ace or a hearts – not mutually exclusive since the hearts contain an ace.

→ If a person is looking at an object then the imaginary line joining the object and the eye of the observer is called the line of sight or ray of view.
AP SSC 10th Class Maths Notes Chapter 12 Applications of Trigonometry 1

→ An imaginary line parallel to earth surface and passing through the point of observation is called the horizontal.

→ If the line of sight is above the horizontal then the angle between them is called “angle of elevation”.
AP SSC 10th Class Maths Notes Chapter 12 Applications of Trigonometry 2

→ If the line of sight is below the horizontal then the angle between them is called the angle of depression.
AP SSC 10th Class Maths Notes Chapter 12 Applications of Trigonometry 3

→ Useful hints to solve the problems:

  1. Draw a neat diagram of a right triangle or a combination of right triangles if necessary.
  2. Represent the data given on the triangle.
  3. Find the relation between known values and unknown values.
  4. Choose appropriate trigonometric ratio and solve for the unknown.

→ The height or length of an object or the distance between two distant objects can be determined with the help of trigonometric ratios.

→ To use this application of trigonometry, we should know the following terms.

→ The terms are Horizontal line, Line of Sight, Angle of Elevation and Angle of Depression.

→ Horizontal line: A line which is parallel to earth from observation point to object is called “horizontal line”.
AP SSC 10th Class Maths Notes Chapter 12 Applications of Trigonometry 4

→ Line of Sight (or) Ray of Vision: The line of sight is the line drawn from the eye of an observer to the point in the object viewed by the observer.

→ Angle of Elevation: The line of sight is above the horizontal line then angle between the line of sight and the horizontal line is called “angle of elevation”.
AP SSC 10th Class Maths Notes Chapter 12 Applications of Trigonometry 5
Note:

  1. If the angle of observer moves towards the perpendicular line (pole/tree/ building), then angle of elevation increases and if the observer moves away from the perpendicular line (pole/tree/building), then angle of elevation decreases.
  2. If height of tower is doubled and the distance between the observer and foot of the tower is also doubled, then the angle of elevation remains same.
  3. If the angle of elevation of sun above a tower decreases, then the length of shadow of a tower increases.

→ Angle of Depression: The line of sight is below the horizontal line then angle between the line of sight and the horizontal line is called angle of depression.
AP SSC 10th Class Maths Notes Chapter 12 Applications of Trigonometry 6
Note:

  1. The angle of elevation and depression are always acute angles.
  2. The angle of elevation of a point P as seen from a point ‘O’ is always equal to the angle of depression of ‘O’ as seen from P.

→ Points to be kept in mind:
I. Trigonometric ratios in a right triangle:

II. Trigonometric ratios of some specific angles:
AP SSC 10th Class Maths Notes Chapter 12 Applications of Trigonometry 9

→ Solving Procedure:
When we want to solve the problems of height and distances, we should consider the following :

  1. All the objects such as tower, trees, buildings, ships, mountains, etc. shall be considered as linear for mathematical convenience.
  2. The angle of elevation or angle of depression is considered with reference to the horizontal line.
  3. The height of the observer is neglected, if it is not given in the problem.
  4. To find heights and distances, we need to draw figures and with the help of these figures we can solve the problems.
