Revision Notes — Linear Inequalities
Key concepts, formulas, and definitions from Linear Inequalities for CUET (UG) Mathematics preparation.
Key Topics to Revise
Basic Concepts and Types of Inequalities
- An inequality is a statement involving symbols '>', '<', '≥', '≤'
- Numerical inequalities: Do not involve variables (e.g., 5 > 3)
- Literal inequalities: Involve variables (e.g., x + 2 > 5)
Solving Linear Inequalities in One Variable
- Rule 1: Add/subtract same number from both sides without changing inequality sign
- Rule 2: Multiply/divide by positive number - inequality sign remains same
- Rule 3: Multiply/divide by negative number - inequality sign reverses
Graphical Representation of Linear Inequalities in Two Variables
- A line divides coordinate plane into two half-planes
- Vertical lines create left and right half-planes
- Non-vertical lines create upper and lower half-planes
System of Linear Inequalities
- System involves two or more linear inequalities in same variables
- Solution is intersection of individual solution regions
- Result may be bounded polygon, unbounded region, or empty set
