Maths Formulas For Class 10 (Chapterwise)

Before getting into the list of the formulas, let’s check out the major chapters of Class 10 Maths for which formulas are needed:

• 1) Arithmetic Progression Formulas
• 2) Pair of Linear Equation in Two Variables Formulas
• 3) Trigonometry Formulas
• 4) Algebra and Quadratic Equation Formulas
• 5) Circle Formulas
• 6) Surface Area and Volume Formulas
• 7) Statistics Formulas

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]

Algebra Formulas For Class 10

Class 10 Maths Formulas For Linear Equations

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

Linear Equation in one Variable	ax + b=0	Where a ≠ 0 and a & b are real numbers
Linear Equation in Two Variables	ax + by + c = 0	Where a ≠ 0 & b ≠ 0 and a, b & c are real numbers
Linear Equation in Three Variables	ax + by + cz + d = 0	Where a ≠ 0, b ≠ 0, c ≠ 0 and a, b, c, d are real numbers

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:

Angle	0°	30°	45°	60°	90°
sinθ	0	1/2	1/√2	√3/2	1
cosθ	1	√3/2	1/√2	½	0
tanθ	0	1/√3	1	√3	Undefined
cotθ	Undefined	√3	1	1/√3	0
secθ	1	2/√3	√2	2	Undefined
cosecθ	Undefined	2	√2	2/√3	1

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.

The Quadratic Formula: For a quadratic equation px2 + qx + r = 0, the values of x which are the solutions of the equation are given by:

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

Now you know the basic quadratic equation.

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

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)

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+\(\frac{\sum_{i=1}^{n}f_{i}d_{i}}{\sum_{i=1}^{n}f_{i}}\)
