ICSE Class 10 Mathematics Syllabus 2022-23

CISCE has released the Latest Updated Syllabus of the New Academic Session 2022-23, for class 10.

Class 10th Syllabus has been revised and changed many times during the Covid situation but finally it released. It’s very important for both Teachers and Students to understand the changes and strictly follow the topics covered in each subject for Class 10th.

We have also updated Oswal Gurukul Books as per the Latest Paper Pattern prescribed by CISCE Board for each Subject Curriculum.

Students can directly access the ICSE Mathematics Syllabus for Class 10 of the academic year 2022- 23 by clicking on the link below.

(ii) Equation of a line:
Slope –intercept form y = mx + c

Geometric understanding of ‘m’ as slope/ gradient/ tanθ where θ is the angle the line makes with the positive direction of the x axis.
Geometric understanding of ‘c’ as the y-intercept/the ordinate of the point where the line intercepts the y axis/ the point on the line where x=0.

(iii) Applications of Basic Proportionality Theorem.
(b) Circles (i) Angle Properties The angle that an arc of a circle subtends at the centre is double that which it subtends at any point on the remaining part of the circle.
Angles in the same segment of a circle are equal.
Angle in a semi-circle is a right angle.
(ii) Cyclic Properties Opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral are supplementary.
The exterior angle of a cyclic quadrilateral is equal to the opposite interior angle.
(iii) Tangent and Secant Properties The tangent at any point of a circle and the radius through the point are perpendicular to each other.
If two circles touch, the point of contact lies on the straight line joining their centres.
From any point outside a circle, two tangents can be drawn, and they are equal in length.
If two chords intersect internally or externally then the product of the lengths of the segments are equal.
If a chord and a tangent intersect externally, then the product of the lengths of segments of the chord is equal to the square of the length of the tangent from the point of contact to the point of intersection.
If a line touches a circle and from the point of contact, a chord is drawn, the angles between the tangent and the chord are respectively equal to the angles in the corresponding alternate segments.
Note: Proofs of the theorems are not required.
Applications of all Circle Theorems in solving numerical and theoretical problems are included.

SI UNITS, SIGNS, SYMBOLS AND ABBREVIATIONS (1) Agreed conventions (a) Units may be written in full or using the agreed symbols, but no other abbreviation may be used.
(b) The letter ‘s’ is never added to symbols to indicate the plural form.
(c) A full stop is not written after symbols for units unless it occurs at the end of a sentence.
(d) When unit symbols are combined as a quotient, e.g., metre per second, it is recommended that it should be written as m/s, or as m s-1.
(e) Three decimal signs are in common international use: the full point, the mid-point and the comma. Since the full point is sometimes used for multiplication and the comma for spacing digits in large numbers, it is recommended that the mid-point be used for decimals.

INTERNAL ASSESSMENT Suggested Assignments The minimum number of assignments: Two assignments as prescribed by the teacher. 20
Comparative newspaper coverage of different items.
Survey of various types of Bank accounts, rates of interest offered.
Planning a home budget.
Conduct a survey in your locality to study the mode of conveyance / Price of various essential commodities / favourite sports. Represent the data using a bar graph / histogram and estimate the mode.
To use a newspaper to study and report on shares and dividends.
Set up a dropper with ink in it vertical at a height say 20 cm above a horizontally placed sheet of plain paper. Release one ink drop; observe the pattern, if any, on the paper. Vary the vertical distance and repeat. Discover any pattern of relationship between the vertical height and the ink drop observed.
You are provided (or you construct a model as shown) - three vertical sticks (size of a pencil) stuck to a horizontal board. You should also have discs of varying sizes with holes (like a doughnut). Start with one disc; place it on (in) stick A. Transfer it to another stick (B or C); this is one move (m). Now try with two discs placed in A such that the large disc is below, and the smaller disc is above (number of discs = n=2 now). Now transfer them one at a time in B or C to obtain similar situation (larger disc below). How many moves? Try with more discs (n = 1, 2, 3, etc.) and generalise.
The board has some holes to hold marbles, red on one side and blue on the other. Start with one pair. Interchange the positions by making one move at a time. A marble can jump over another to fill the hole behind. The move (m) equal 3. Try with 2 (n=2) and more. Find the relationship between n and m.
Take a square sheet of paper of side 10 cm. Four small squares are to be cut from the corners of the square sheet and then the paper folded at the cuts to form an open box. What should be the size of the squares cut so that the volume of the open box is maximum?
Take an open box, four sets of marbles (ensuring that marbles in each set are of the same size) and some water. By placing the marbles and water in the box, attempt to answer the question: do larger marbles or smaller marbles occupy more volume in a given space?
An eccentric artist says that the best paintings have the same area as their perimeter (numerically). Let us not argue whether such sizes increase the viewer’s appreciation, but only try and find what sides (in integers only) a rectangle must have if its area and perimeter are to be equal (Note: there are only two such rectangles).
Find by construction the centre of a circle, using only a 60-30 setsquare and a pencil.
Various types of “cryptarithm”.
