 A Note to the students
Dear Students,
The current academic session has been historic in a number of ways. The pandemic not
only forced shutting down of onsite classes and substituting them with online, virtual mode of
teaching, a number of classroom activities, esp. writing under guidance of teachers and its
prompt correction too has taken a backseat. On the examination front, the entire setup has
undergone a revolutionary change. From typology of questions to their evaluation and to number
of examination and duration of examination- nothing has remained untouched by these winds of
change. This is the time we gear up ourselves to embrace these changes in examination
landscape as we have done in case of online classes and explore possibilities in the challenges
thrown before us by the pandemic.
The New Education Policy, too is an agent of massive changes in our knowledge
landscape. Let us amalgamate all these changes and feel proud ourselves to be the first to answer
the call of CHANGE.
In the light of new education policy new structure of assessment is proposed by Kendriya
Vidyalaya Sangathan for classes VI to VIII. Multiple assessment methods are developed to
assess the students in two terms (Term-I, April to September and Term-II October to March)
throughout the academic session. Each term consists of Subject Enrichment Activities (SEA),
Note Book submission (NB), Periodic Tests (PT), Multi-disciplinary Projects (MDP), Learners
Diary (LD), and Critical & Creative Thinking (CCT).These assessments will be carried out
regularly and continuously during each term. The assessment will be done through online/offline
mode as per the pertaining situation of Covid-19 Pandemic SOPs. Students are advised to
understand the learning and evaluation process/methods introduced as per NEP-2020, and get
your all kinds of queries sorted out with proper guidance of learned subject teachers.
So, it is important to read the text and understand it thoroughly as per the guidance of
your subject teachers. So, please make reading the text and practice writing in the centre of all
your academic activities. Treat your NCERT books as your holy books and also go through the
study material prepared by a team of dedicated teachers who have devoted sufficient time in
understanding and then developing the content to suit the needs of all our dear students. Focus
has been on relevance and conciseness- the content strictly is a supplement to your NCERT
books and in no way it should be treated as a substitute to it.
I am sure the content in study material where you will find all units/ chapters for
SECOND TERM at a glance, Chapter wise question bank , sample test items will be useful to
you. However, it is imperative you keep your self-updated with regular in-touch and guidance of
your teacher for any further changes that may take place after the study material has been
prepared. Hope the efforts of your teachers in preparing this material will help you perform very
well in your second term examination.
All the best.

ALGEBRAIC EXPRESSIONS AND IDENTITIES

Algebraic expressions are formed from variables and constants. The expression 2y – 5 is formed
from the variable y and constants 2 and 5. The expression 4xy + 7 is formed from variables x and
y and constants 4 and 7.
We know that, the value of y in the expression, 2y – 5, may be anything. It can be2, 5, –3, 0, 5 /7,
etc.; actually, countless different values. The value of an expression changes with the value chosen
for the variables it contains. Thus as y takes on different values, the value of 2y – 5 goes on changing

Terms, Factors and Coefficients

Take the expression 4x + 5. This expression is made up of two terms, 4x and 5. Terms are added
to form expressions. Terms themselves can be formed as the product of factors. The term 4x is
the product of its factors 4 and x. The term 5 is made up of just one factor, i.e., 5.
The numerical factor of a term is called its coefficient. The coefficient in the term 7xy is 7

Monomials, Binomials and Polynomials

Expression that contains only one term is called a monomial. Such as 2x
Expression that contains two terms is called a binomial. such as 2x + 5
An expression containing three terms is a trinomial and such as 3x2 + 3x +1
In general, an expression containing, one or more terms with non-zero coefficient (with
variables having non negative exponents) is called a polynomial. A polynomial may contain any
number of terms, one or more than one

Like and Unlike terms

Look at the following expressions:
7x, 14x, –13x, 5x2, 7y, 7xy, –9y2, –9x2, –5yx
Like terms from these are:
(i) 7x, 14x, –13x are like terms.
(b)5x2 and –9x2 are like terms.

Page | 3
Like terms are formed from the same variables and the powers of these variables are also the same.
But coefficients of like terms need not be the same.
Addition and Subtraction of Algebraic expressions
While adding and subtracting expressions this has to be kept in mind that only like terms are
added and subtracted, unlike terms are kept as given
For example, to add 7x2 – 4x + 5 and 9x – 10, we do

Subtract 5x2 – 4y2 + 6y – 3 from 7x2 – 4xy + 8y2 + 5x – 3y.

Multiplication of Algebraic Expressions

There are number of situations like finding the area of rectangle, triangle, etc. in which we need
to multiply algebraic expressions.
Multiplication of two algebraic expressions is again an algebraic expression.
Multiplying a monomial to monomial
A monomial multiplied by a monomial always gives a monomial.
5x × 4x2 = (5 × 4) × (x × x2)
= 20 × x3 = 20x3
Note that 5 × 4 = 20 i.e., coefficient of product = coefficient of first monomial × coefficient of
second monomial;
and x × x2 = x3
i.e., algebraic factor of product= algebraic factor of first monomial× algebraic factor of second
monomial.
Multiplying three monomials
2x × 5y × 7z = (2x × 5y) × 7z = 10xy × 7z = 70xyz

Page | 4
We first multiply the first two monomials and then multiply the resulting monomial by the third
monomial.
This method can be extended to the product of any number of monomials.
Multiplying a monomial with a polynomial
While multiplying a polynomial by a monomial, we multiply every term in the polynomial by the
monomial using the distributive law a (b + c) = ab + ac.
Let us multiply the monomial 3x by the binomial 5y + 2, i.e., find 3x × (5y + 2) =?
Recall that 3x and (5y + 2) represent numbers. Therefore, using the distributive law,
3x × (5y + 2) = (3x × 5y) + (3x × 2) = 15xy + 6x
In the multiplication of a polynomial by a binomial (or trinomial), we multiply term by term, i.e.
every term of the polynomial is multiplied by every term in the binomial (or trinomial) using the
distributive property.
In multiplication of polynomials with polynomials, we should always look for like terms, if any,
and combine them.
Algebraic Equations and Identities
Consider the equality (a + 1) (a +2) = a2 + 3a + 2
We shall evaluate both sides of this equality for some value of a, say a = 10.
For a = 10, LHS = (a + 1) (a + 2) = (10 + 1) (10 + 2) = 11 × 12 = 132
RHS = a2 + 3a + 2 = 102 + 3 × 10 + 2 = 100 + 30 + 2 = 132
Thus, the values of the two sides of the equality are equal for a = 10.
Let us now take a = –5
LHS = (a + 1) (a + 2) = (–5 + 1) (–5 + 2) = (– 4) × (–3) = 12
RHS = a2 + 3a + 2 = (–5)2 + 3 (–5) + 2
= 25 – 15 + 2 = 10 + 2 = 12
Thus, for a = –5, also LHS = RHS.
We shall find that for any value of a, LHS = RHS Such an equality which is true for every value
of the variable in it, is called an identity. Thus,
(a + 1) (a + 2) = a2 + 3a + 2 is an identity.
An equation is true for only certain values of the variable in it. It is not true for all values of
the variable.
For example, consider the equation a2 + 3a + 2 = 132
It is true for a = 10, as seen above, but it is not true for a = –5 or for a = 0 etc

VISUALISING SOLID SHAPES
MAIN CONCEPTS
• 3D shapes/objects are those which do not lie completely in a plane.
• 3D objects have different views from different positions.

• A solid is a polyhedron if it is made up of only polygonal faces. The faces meet at lines
segments and such line segments are called the edges of the polyhedron. The edges meet at a
point and the point where edges meet is called a vertex. A polyhedron has many vertices.

•Euler’s formula for any polyhedron is,

F+V–E=2
Where F stands for number of faces, V for number of vertices and E for number of edges.
• Types of polyhedrons:
(a) Convex polyhedron: A convex polyhedron is one in which all faces make it convex.

Page | 12
(b) Regular polyhedron or platonic solids: A polyhedron is regular
if its faces are congruent regular polygons and the same number of
faces meets at each vertex. For example, a cube is a platonic solid
because all six of its faces are congruent squares.

• A prism is a polyhedron whose bottom

and top faces (known as bases) are
congruent polygons and faces known as
lateral faces are parallelograms (when the
side faces are rectangles, the shape is
known as right prism).

• A pyramid is a polyhedron whose base is a polygon and lateral faces are triangles.

A prism or a pyramid is named after its base. Thus, a hexagonal prism has a hexagon
as its base; and a triangular pyramid has a triangle as its base.
MAPPING SPACE AROUND US
1. A map depicts the location of a particular object/place in relation to other objects/places in its
surroundings.
2. Symbols are used to depict the different objects/places.
3. There is no reference or perspective in map, i.e., objects that are closer to the observer are
shown to be of the same size as those that are farther away.

• For any non-zero integer a, a–m =
𝑎𝑚

• Laws of exponents are

(a) Product Law: am × an = a m+n
(b) Quotient Law: am ÷ an = a m–n
𝑛
(c) Power Law: 𝑎𝑚 = amn
(d) am × bm = (ab)m
(e) a° = 1,
• Numbers can be expressed in expanded form by using exponents.
• Very large and very small numbers can be expressed in standard form.
• Standard form is also called scientific notation form.

DIRECT AND INVERSE PROPORTION

Variations and Proportions:

When the values of two quantities depend on one another in a way, such that the change in one
quantity causes change in the other, the two quantities are said to be in variation.
Direct Proportion:
1. The two quantities are said to be directly proportional if:
• An increase in one leads to a corresponding increase in the other.
• A decrease in one leads to a corresponding decrease in the other.
2. If x varies directly as y then the ratio x/y=k (constant) symbolically, x α y, where α is symbol of
proportionality or x = ky, x1/y1=x2/y2=x3/y3=k
Example: If the radius of a circle increases, the area of that circle also increases.

Inverse Proportion:
1. The two quantities are said to be inversely proportional if
• an increase in one leads to a corresponding decrease in the other.
• a decrease in one leads to a corresponding increase in the other.
2. If x varies inversely with y, then x α y ⇒ x/y = k(constant) or xy = x1y1 = x2y2 = k.
Example: As the speed of a vehicle increases, time taken to cover a particular distance decreases.
3.. Speed = Distance / Time or Distance = Speed x time or time = Distance / Speed

 CHAPTER :14
FACTORISATION
What is Factorization?
When we factorize an algebraic expression, we write it as a product of factors. These factors may
be numbers, algebraic variables or algebraic expressions. Expressions like 3xy, 5x2y, 2x (y + 2), 5
(y + 1) (x + 2) are already in factor form. Their factors can be just read off from them, as we already
know. On the other hand, consider expressions like 2x + 4, 3x + 3y, x 2 + 5x, x2 + 5x + 6. It is not
obvious what their factors are. We need to develop systematic methods to factorise these
expressions, i.e., to find their factors.
1. Method of common factors
• We begin with a simple example:
Factorise: 2x + 4.
We shall write each term as a product of irreducible factors;
2x = 2 × x
4=2×2
Hence 2x + 4 = (2 × x) + (2 × 2)
Notice that factor 2 is common to both the terms.
Observe, by distributive law 2 × (x + 2) = (2 × x) + (2 × 2)
Therefore, we can write 2x + 4 = 2 × (x + 2) = 2 (x + 2)
Thus, the expression 2x + 4 is the same as 2 (x + 2).
Now we can read off its factors: they are 2 and (x + 2). These factors are irreducible.
2. Factorisation by regrouping terms
Look at the expression 2xy + 2y + 3x + 3.
You will notice that the first two terms have common factors 2 and y and the last two terms have
a common factor 3. But there is no single factor common to all the terms. How shall we proceed?
Let us write (2xy + 2y) in the factor form:
2xy + 2y = (2 × x × y) + (2 × y)
= (2 × y × x) + (2 × y × 1)
= (2y × x) + (2y × 1)
= 2y (x + 1)
Similarly, 3x + 3 = (3 × x) + (3 × 1)
= 3 × (x + 1)

Page | 41
 = 3 ( x + 1)
Hence, 2xy + 2y + 3x + 3 = 2y (x + 1) + 3 (x +1)
Observe, now we have a common factor (x + 1) in both the terms on the right-hand side.
Combining the two terms, 2xy + 2y + 3x + 3 = 2y (x + 1) + 3 (x + 1)
= (x + 1) (2y + 3)
The expression 2xy + 2y + 3x + 3 is now in the form of a product of factors.
Its factors are (x + 1) and (2y + 3). Note, these factors are irreducible.
REGROUPING THE TERMS
Suppose, the above expression was given as 2xy + 3 + 2y + 3x; then it will not be easy to see the
factorization.
Rearranging the expression, as 2xy + 2y + 3x + 3,
allows us to form groups (2xy + 2y) and (3x + 3) leading to factorization.
This is regrouping.
Regrouping may be possible in more than one way.
Suppose, we regroup the expression as: 2xy + 3x + 2y + 3.
This will also lead to factors.
Let us try: 2xy + 3x + 2y + 3 = 2 × x × y + 3 × x + 2 × y + 3
= x × (2y + 3) + 1 × (2y + 3)
= (2y + 3) (x + 1)
The factors are the same (as they have to be), although they appear in different order.
3. Factorisation using identities
We know that
(a) (a + b) 2 = a2 + 2ab + b2
(b) (a – b)2 = a2 – 2ab + b2
(c) (a + b) (a – b) = a2 – b2
The following solved examples illustrate how to use these identities for factorisation. What we
do is to observe the given expression. If it has a form that fits the right hand side of one of the
identities, then the expression corresponding to the left hand side of the identity gives the desired
factorisation.
Example :
Factorise : x2 + 8x + 16
Solution: Observe the expression; it has three terms.

Page | 42
Therefore, it does not fit Identity III.
Also, it’s first and third terms are perfect squares with a positive sign before the middle term.
So, it is of the form a2 + 2ab + b2 where a = x and b = 4
such that a2 + 2ab + b2 = x2 + 2 (x) (4) + 42
= x2 + 8x + 16
Since a2 + 2ab + b2 =(a + b)2 ,
by comparison x2 + 8x + 16 = ( x + 4)2 (the required factorisation).
Example :
Factorise 4y2 – 12y + 9
Solution: Observe 4y2 = (2y)2 , 9 = 32 and 12y = 2 × 3 × (2y)
Therefore, 4y2 – 12y + 9 = (2y)2 – 2 × 3 × (2y) + (3)2
= ( 2y – 3)2 (required factorisation)
Example :
Factorise 49p2 – 36
Solution: There are two terms; both are squares and the second one is negative.
The expression is of the form (a2 – b2 ).
Identity (c)is applicable here;
49p2 – 36 = (7p)2 – ( 6 )2 = (7p – 6 ) ( 7p + 6) (required factorisation)
Factors of the form ( x + a) ( x + b)
(x + a) (x + b) = x2 + (a + b) x + ab
Example :
Factorise : x2 + 5x + 6
Solution: If we compare the R.H.S. of Identity (d)with x2 + 5x + 6, we find ab = 6, and a + b = 5.
From this, we must obtain a and b.
The factors then will be (x + a) and (x + b). If a b = 6, it means that a and b are factors of 6.
Let us try a = 6, b = 1. For these values a + b = 7, and not 5, So this choice is not right.
Let us try a = 2, b = 3. For this a + b = 5 exactly as required.
The factorised form of this given expression is then (x +2) (x + 3).
Division of Algebraic Expressions
Division of a monomial by another monomial
Consider 6x3 ÷ 2x
We may write 2x and 6x3 in irreducible factor forms, 2x = 2 × x

Page | 43
6x3 = 2 × 3 × x × x × x
Now we group factors of 6x3 to separate 2x,
6x3 = 2 × x × (3 × x × x) = (2x) × (3x2 )
Therefore, 6x3 ÷ 2x =3x2 .
Division of a polynomial by a monomial
When you divide polynomials you may have to factor the polynomial to find a common
factor between the numerator and the denominator. For example: Divide the following
polynomial: (2x2 + 4x) ÷ 2x.
Both the numerator and denominator have a common factor of 2x.
Thus, the expression can be written as 2x(x + 2) / 2x.
Cancelling out the common term 2x, we get x+2 as the answer.
Division of Algebraic Expressions Continued (Polynomial ÷ Polynomial) •
Consider (7x2 + 14x) ÷ (x + 2)
We shall factorise (7x2 + 14x)
first to check and match factors with the denominator:
7x2 + 14x = (7 × x × x) + (2 × 7 × x)
= 7 × x × (x + 2)
= 7x(x + 2)
Now (7x2 + 14x) ÷ (x + 2) = 7x(x+2) ÷ (x+2) = 7x (Cancelling the factor (x + 2))

INTRODUCTION TO GRAPHS
• Graphical presentation of data is easier to understand.
(a) A bar graph is used to show comparison among categories.
(b) A pie graph is used to compare parts of a whole.
(c)A Histogram is a bar graph that shows data in intervals.
• A line graph displays data that changes continuously over periods of time.
• A line graph which is a whole unbroken line is called a linear graph.
• For fixing a point on the graph sheet we need, x-coordinate and y-coordinate. Any point on X
axis has the y- coordinate always 0, represented as (x, 0) and any point of Y axis has X –
coordinate always 0, represented as (0, y).
• The relation between dependent variable and independent variable is shown through a graph.
• A Bar Graph: A pictorial representation of numerical data in the form of bars (rectangles) of
uniform width with equal spacing. The length (or height) of each bar represents the given
number.

A Pie Graph: A pie graph is used to compare parts of a whole. The various observations or
components are represented by the sectors of the circle.

Page | 50
A Histogram: Histogram is a type of bar diagram, where the class intervals are shown on the
horizontal axis and the heights of the bars (rectangles) show the frequency of the class
interval, but there is no gap between the bars as there is no gap between the class intervals.

• Linear Graph: A line graph in which all the line segments form a part of a single line.

• Coordinates: A point in Cartesian plane is represented by an ordered pair of numbers.

• Ordered Pair: A pair of numbers written in specified order.

 CHAPTER – 16
PLAYING WITH NUMBERS
• Number in general form: A number is said to be in a general form if it is expressed as the sum of
the products of its digits with their respective place values.
• Numbers can be written in general form. Thus, a two-digit number ab will be written as ab = 10a
+b.
• The general form of numbers is helpful in solving puzzles or number games.
• The reasons for the divisibility of numbers by 10, 5, 2, 9 or 3 can be given when numbers are
written in general form.
• Tests of Divisibility:
(a) Divisibility by 2: A number is divisible by 2 when its one’s digit is 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8.
Explanation: Given number abc = 100a +10b +c. 100a and 10b are divisible by 2 because 100 and
10 are divisible by 2. Thus, given number is divisible by 2 only when a = 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8.
(b) Divisibility by 3: A number is divisible by 3 when the sum of its digits is divisible byn3.
Example: given number = 61785. Sum of digits = 6+1+7+8+5 = 27 which is divisible by 3.
Therefore, 61785 is divisible y 3.
(c) Divisibility by 4: A number is divisible by 4 when the number formed by its last two digits is
divisible by 4. Example: 6216, 548, etc.
(d) Divisibility by 5: A number is divisible by 5 when its ones digit is 0 or 5. Example: 645, 540
etc.
(v) Divisibility by 6: A number is divisible by 6 when it is divisible by both 2 and 3.
Example: 246, 7230, etc.
(vi) Divisibility by 9: A number is divisible by 9 when the sum of its digits is divisible by 9.
Example: consider a number 215847. Sum of digits = 2+1+5+8+4+7 = 27 which is
divisible by 9. Therefore, 215847 is divisible by 9.
(vii) Divisibility by 10: A number is divisible by 10 when its ones digit is 0. Example: 540, 890,
etc.
(viii) Divisibility by 11: A number is divisible by 11 when the difference of the sum of its
digits in odd places and the sum of its digits in even places is either o or a multiple of 11.
Example: consider a number 462.
Sum of digits in odd places = 4+2 = 6
Sum of digits in even places = 6
Difference = 6-6=0, which is zero. So, the number is divisible by 11.
