Chapter 1: Real Numbers
A. Assertion and Reason
1. Assertion (A): Every composite number can be expressed as a product of primes.
Reason (R): The Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic states that every natural number can be written as a product of
prime numbers in a unique way (except for the order).
Options:
A. Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A.
B. Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A.
C. A is true, but R is false.
D. A is false, but R is true.
2. Assertion (A): sqrt(2) is a rational number.
Reason (R): A rational number can be expressed as a ratio of two integers.
Options: A / B / C / D
B. Multiple Choice Questions (MCQs)
1. The HCF and LCM of two numbers are 12 and 240 respectively. If one of the numbers is 60, find the other number.
A. 48 B. 72 C. 36 D. 30
2. Which of the following rational numbers has a terminating decimal expansion?
A. 13/80 B. 7/45 C. 11/70 D. 3/77
C. Case Study Question
Context: A teacher explains that rational numbers have either terminating or non-terminating repeating decimals. She
writes:
(a) 7/8 (b) 1/3 (c) sqrt(3) (d) 2/5
Questions:

Chapter 2: Polynomials
A. Assertion and Reason
1. Assertion (A): x = 1 is a zero of the polynomial p(x) = x^2 - 2x + 1.
Reason (R): A number is a zero if it satisfies the polynomial.
Options: A / B / C / D
2. Assertion (A): The number of zeroes of a polynomial equals its degree.
Reason (R): Every polynomial of degree 3 has exactly 3 zeroes.
Options: A / B / C / D

A. 5 B. 4 C. 3 D. 2
2. Which of the following is not a polynomial?
A. x^2 - 1
B. x^3 + 4x - 7
C. sqrt(x) + 5
D. 2x^4 - x + 3
C. Case Study Question
Context: Riya solves a polynomial for a ball's height:
h(x) = -x^2 + 6x + 5
Questions:
1. What is the degree?
2. Find the zeroes using factorization.

A. (4, 2) B. (2, 4) C. (1, 3) D. (3, 1)
2. If equations have infinite solutions, lines are:
A. Intersecting at one point
B. Coincident
C. Parallel
D. None of these
C. Case Study Question
Context: A shopkeeper notes 3 pencils + 2 erasers = Rs. 19, and 4 pencils + 3 erasers = Rs. 26.
