Master Differential Equations – Class 12 Maths Chapter 9 | Concepts, NCERT Solutions & PYQs

Here are some important points about differential equations: Definition of a Differential Equation : A differential equation is an equation that involves the derivative (or derivatives) of a dependent variable with respect to an independent variable (or variables). These equations are fundamental in various fields, including Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Anthropology, Geology, and Economics, highlighting their prime importance in modern scientific investigations . For example, the equation dy/dx = g(x) , where y = f(x) , is a differential equation. Similarly, dy/dx + x/y = 0 is a differential equation because it involves variables and the derivative of y with respect to x . Types of Differential Equations : Ordinary Differential Equation : This type involves derivatives of the dependent variable with respect to only one independent variable . The sources primarily focus on ordinary differential equations. An example is d²y/dx² + (dy/dx)² = 0 . Partial Differential Equati...

Master Continuity & Differentiability – Class 12 Maths (Chapter 5) | Theory, NCERT Solutions & CBSE PYQs

 Here’s the comprehensive guide for Chapter 5: Continuity & Differentiability (CBSE Class 12 Maths, 2025–26 syllabus): A. 🔑 Key Concepts and Theorems 1. Continuity A function f f is continuous at x = a x = a if lim ⁡ x → a f ( x ) = f ( a ) \lim_{x \to a}f(x) = f(a) , meaning left and right limits equal the function value . Discontinuities : Removable (hole), jump , and infinite/oscillatory . Algebra of continuous functions : Sums, products, quotients (with non-zero denominator), and compositions of continuous functions are continuous . Intermediate Value Theorem / Rolle’s & Mean Value Theorem : continuous on [a,b] ⇒ there exist points satisfying f(b)=f(a) or f′(c) = (f(b)–f(a))/(b–a) . 2. Differentiability f f is differentiable at a a if the limit lim ⁡ h → 0 f ( a + h ) − f ( a ) h \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(a+h) - f(a)}{h} exists . Differentiable ⇒ Continuous , but not vice versa (e.g. f ( x ) = ∣ x ∣ f(x)=|x| at 0) . Left ...
