When any three elements of the triangle are given, provided they be not the three angles, the triangle is in general completely known, i.e. its other angles and sides can be calculated. When the three angles are given, only the ratios of the lengths of the sides can be found, so that the triangle is given in shape only and not in size. Notes: Ina triangle ABC the angles are denoted by capital letters A, B and C. The length of the sides opposite to the angle is denoted by small letters a, b and c The sum of the length of the two sides is always greater than the length of third side. The difference of the lengths of the two sides is always less than the length of third side. b Semi perimeter of the triangle is given by, s Area of the triangle is denoted by A and A~ 3 x base = height e Rule > Inatriangle ABC, <9 = 5 = So =2R (where R is circum radius of the triangle ABC) Cosine Rul Ina triangle ABC, @ — cosA= EE or a? ? —2becos A Gi) cos B or 8 ? —2ea cos B Gil) cos orc? =a? +b? —2abeosC ab Napier’s Analogy (Tangent Rule) Ina triangle ABC, =c)_ bee @ tan (25S) BRE cor A C Rao IIT Academy © __ Website: wwwara “pyT-14d Suopnjosnpg owy Jo uoystar Vy — Aw9pESY LIT OFA Rao IIT Academy — A Division of Rao Edusolutions Pvt.

Consider the experiment of tossing a die. If we are interested in the number on the top face, then sample space would be S, = {1, 2, 3, 4,5, 6}. Ifwe are interested only in whether the number is even or odd, then sample space is S, = {even, odd}. Clearly more than one sample space can be used to describe the outcomes of an experiment, In this case ‘S,’ provides more information than ‘S,’.Ifwe know which elementiin §, occurs, we can tell which outcome in S, occurs; however, knowledge of ‘what happens in, in no way helps us to know which element in S, occurs. In general itis desirable to use a sample space that gives the maximum information concerning the outcomes ofthe experiment Sample Point Each element of the sample space is called a sample point. Event Ancvent is a subset of the sample space. An outcome or the result ofa random experiment is called an event. The event can be either an elementary event ora composite event.

The possible outcome or the result ofa random experiment that can be further spit into more than one elementary event is called a composite event. Example: Getting a face with odd number of points upwards in rolling of a die isa composite event, since it can be divided further into three elementary events namely Event of getting face with one point upwards Event of getting a face with three points upwards. Event of getting a face with five points upwards. Briefly speaking a combination of two or more number of elementary events is called a composite event. Equally likely Events Asetof events is said to be equally likely if taking into consideration all the relevant factors there is no reason to expect one of them in preference to the others. ‘When one event does not occur mote number of times than any one ofthe other events ie, ifall the events occur same number of times then they are equally likely events. Example: when a fair coin is tossed, the occurrence of a tal or a head are equally likely Complementary Events Let Abe an event. Then complement of A is denoted by 4" (or A or A") which means “A does not IfAdenotesan event then 4° denotes an event which includes all the sample points not included in A. Example: The complementary event of an odd number falling up in throw ofa die is the turning up of an even number, Independent Events ‘Two or more events are said to be independent if occurrence or non-occurrence of any of them does not influence the occurrence or non occurrence of other events. Example : Ifa unbiased coin is tossed anda fair die is rolled simultaneously, then the out come on the coin does not influence the out come on the die.
