Chapter 1: Graphical Representation of Functions — Exercise 1.1
Bunyadi Concept (Method of Factorization)
Jab hum kisi quadratic function (parabola) ka graph banana chahte hain, to sabse asaan tareeqa ye hai:
- Roots (x-intercepts) nikalo — yani wo points jahan graph x-axis ko cut karta hai (y = 0 rakh kar).
- Vertex nikalo — dono roots ka midpoint lo, wahi vertex ka x-coordinate hota hai. Phir us x ko function mein daal kar y-coordinate nikal lo.
- Direction dekho — agar leading coefficient (a) positive hai to parabola upar ki taraf khulta hai (upward), agar negative hai to neeche ki taraf (downward).
Question 1 — Har Part Ki Explanation
(i) y = 3(x+1)(x−1)
- Ye already factorized hai, isliye roots seedhe nikal aaye: x = −1 aur x = 1.
- Leading coefficient a = 3, jo positive hai → parabola upward khulega.
- Vertex ka x = roots ka average = (−1+1)/2 = 0. Phir x=0 rakh kar y = 3(1)(−1) = −3 mila.
- Vertex = (0, −3), jo yahi y-intercept bhi hai.
(ii) f(x) = −2(x−1)(x−2)
- Roots: x = 1, x = 2.
- a = −2 (negative) → downward khulega.
- Vertex x = (1+2)/2 = 1.5. Ye value function mein daal kar y = 0.5 mila.
- y-intercept ke liye x=0 rakha: f(0) = −4.
(iii) y = (2x−1)(2x+1)
- Roots nikalne ke liye har bracket ko zero karo: 2x−1=0 → x=1/2, aur 2x+1=0 → x=−1/2.
- Expand karne par y = 4x² − 1 banta hai, isliye a = 4 (positive) → upward.
- Vertex x=0 (kyunke roots symmetric hain −1/2 aur 1/2 ke), y = −1.
(iv) y = 2x² + x − 3
- Ye already factorized form mein nahi diya, isliye pehle factorize karna parta hai.
- Trick: a×c = 2×(−3) = −6 nikalo, aur wo do numbers dhoondo jo multiply karke −6 den aur add karke b=1 den → wo hain 3 aur −2.
- Phir middle term ko split karke group banate hain: 2x²+3x−2x−3 = (2x+3)(x−1).
- Roots: x = −3/2, x = 1.
- a=2 (positive) → upward. Vertex x = (−3/2+1)/2 = −1/4, jahan y = −25/8 nikla (calculation thora lamba hai lekin same tareeqa).
(v) f(x) = x² + 2x + 1
- Ye ek perfect square hai: (x+1)².
- Jab bracket square hoti hai to root repeated hoti hai (yani x=−1 do dafa aata hai).
- Iska matlab graph x-axis ko cross nahi karta, balke sirf touch karta hai us point par aur wapas mud jata hai.
- a=1 (positive) → upward.
(vi) y = 3(x−1)²
- Same jaisa (v) — perfect square, repeated root x=1.
- Graph x-axis ko x=1 par touch karega, cross nahi karega.
- a=3 → upward.
Important Concept: Agar function perfect square [(x−k)² jaisi form] mein ho, to uska sirf ek hi root hota hai (repeated), aur graph us point par x-axis ko sirf chhoo ke wapas chala jata hai — cross nahi karta.
Question 2 — Graph Dekh Kar Equation Banana (Ulta Kaam)
Yahan Question 1 ka ulta karna hai — humein graph diya gaya hai, aur us se equation nikalni hai.
(i) Graph x-axis ko x=−2 aur x=1 par cut karta hai (do alag roots), isliye form banayi:
y=a(x+2)(x−1)y = a(x+2)(x-1)y=a(x+2)(x−1)
Ab humein a ki value nahi pata, isliye graph se ek aur point liya — (3/2, −7/4) — aur wo equation mein substitute karke a nikala: a = −1.
Final: y = −(x+2)(x−1)
(ii) Graph x=2 par sirf touch karta hai (cross nahi karta) → matlab ye repeated root hai:
y=a(x−2)2y = a(x-2)^2y=a(x−2)2
Phir point (1,1) substitute karke a=1 nikala.
Final: y = (x−2)²
Concept ye hai: Agar graph x-axis ko cross karta hai to form (x−r₁)(x−r₂) use hoti hai (do alag roots). Agar sirf touch karta hai to form (x−r)² use hoti hai (ek repeated root).
Question 3, 4, 5 — Diye Gaye Conditions Se Equation Banana
Ye teeno questions same logic follow karte hain:
Q3: x-intercepts −1 aur −2 diye, aur ek point (−3,2) diya.
→ Form: y = a(x+1)(x+2), phir point substitute karke a=1 mila.
Q4: x=−1 par touch karta hai (matlab repeated root), aur y-intercept −2 diya.
→ Form: y = a(x+1)², phir x=0,y=−2 substitute karke a=−2 mila.
Q5: x-intercepts −1 aur 1, vertex (0,−2) diya.
→ Form: y = a(x+1)(x−1), vertex ka x=0 already roots ke midpoint se match ho raha tha, isliye seedha x=0,y=−2 substitute karke a=2 mila.
Sabse Zaroori Nuqta (Summary for Students)
| Diya Gaya | Form Jo Use Karni Hai |
|---|---|
| Do alag x-intercepts (r₁, r₂) | y = a(x−r₁)(x−r₂) |
| Graph touch karta hai ek point par (repeated root r) | y = a(x−r)² |
| Ek aur point graph par diya ho | Us point ko equation mein daal kar a nikalo |
Ye tareeqa har question mein repeat ho raha hai — bas farq itna hai ke kabhi hum root se equation bana rahe hain (Q1), aur kabhi diye gaye info se equation reverse-engineer kar rahe hain (Q2–Q5).
