Mathematics Class 9 Syllabuses.
There will be one paper of two and a half hours duration carrying 80 marks and Internal Assessment of 20 marks. The paper will be divided into two sections, Section I (40 marks), Section II (40 marks). Section I: will consist of compulsory short answer questions. Section II: Candidates will be required to answer four out of seven questions. The solution of a question may require the knowledge of more than one branch of the syllabus. 1.Pure Arithmetic Rational and Irrational Numbers Rational, irrational numbers as real numbers, their place in the number system. Surds and rationalization of surds. Simplifyingan expression by rationalizing the denominator. 2.Commercial Mathematics Compound Interest (a)Compound interest as a repeated Simple Interest computation with a growing Principal. Use of this in computing Amount over a period of 2 or 3 years.
(b)Use of formula = (1 + ) n . Finding CIUsing the formula to find one quantity§ Interest compounded half-yearl…
