, FOREWORD
The National Curriculum Framework (NCF) – 2005 initiated a new phase of development
of syllabi and textbooks for all stages of school education. Conscious effort has been
made to discourage rote learning and to diffuse sharp boundaries between different
subject areas. This is well in tune with the NPE – 1986 and Learning Without Burden-
1993 that recommend child centred system of education. The textbooks for Classes
IX and XI were released in 2006 and for Classes X and XII in 2007. Overall the books
have been well received by students and teachers.
NCF–2005 notes that treating the prescribed textbooks as the sole basis of
examination is one of the key reasons why other resources and sites of learning are
ignored. It further reiterates that the methods used for teaching and evaluation will
also determine how effective these textbooks proves for making children’s life at school
a happy experience, rather than source of stress or boredom. It calls for reform in
examination system currently prevailing in the country.
The position papers of the National Focus Groups on Teaching of Science,
Teaching of Mathematics and Examination Reform envisage that the mathematics
question papers, set in annual examinations conducted by the various Boards do not
really assess genuine understanding of the subjects. The quality of question papers is
often not up to the mark. They usually seek mere information based on rote
memorization, and fail to test higher-order skills like reasoning and analysis, let along
lateral thinking, creativity, and judgment. Good unconventional questions, challenging
problems and experiment-based problems rarely find a place in question papers. In
order to address to the issue, and also to provide additional learning material, the
Department of Education in Science and Mathematics (DESM) has made an attempt
to develop resource book of exemplar problems in different subjects at secondary and
higher-secondary stages. Each resource book contains different types of questions of
varying difficulty level. Some questions would require the students to apply
simultaneously understanding of more than one chapters/units. These problems are
not meant to serve merely as question bank for examinations but are primarily meant
to improve the quality of teaching/learning process in schools. It is expected that these
problems would encourage teachers to design quality questions on their own. Students
and teachers should always keep in mind that examination and assessment should test
,comprehension, information recall, analytical thinking and problem-solving ability,
creativity and speculative ability.
A team of experts and teachers with an understanding of the subject and a
proper role of examination worked hard to accomplish this task. The material was
discussed, edited and finally included in this source book.
NCERT will welcome suggestions from students, teachers and parents which
would help us to further improve the quality of material in subsequent editions.

, PREFACE
The Department of Education in Science and Mathematics (DESM), National
Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT), initiated the
development of ‘Exemplar Problems’ in science and mathematics for secondary
and higher secondary stages after completing the preparation of textbooks based
on National Curriculum Framework–2005.
The main objective of the book on ‘Exemplar Problems in Mathematics’ is to
provide the teachers and students a large number of quality problems with varying
cognitive levels to facilitate teaching learning of concepts in mathematics that are
presented through the textbook for Class X. It is envisaged that the problems included
in this volume would help the teachers to design tasks to assess effectiveness of their
teaching and to know about the achievement of their students besides facilitating
preparation of balanced question papers for unit and terminal tests. The feedback
based on the analysis of students’ responses may help the teachers in further improving
the quality of classroom instructions. In addition, the problems given in this book are
also expected to help the teachers to perceive the basic characteristics of good quality
questions and motivate them to frame similar questions on their own. Students can
benefit themselves by attempting the exercises given in the book for self assessment
and also in mastering the basic techniques of problem solving. Some of the questions
given in the book are expected to challenge the understanding of the concepts of
mathematics of the students and their ability to applying them in novel situations.
The problems included in this book were prepared through a series of workshops
organised by the DESM for their development and refinement involving practicing
teachers, subject experts from universities and institutes of higher learning, and the
members of the mathematics group of the DESM whose names appear separately.
We gratefully acknowledge their efforts and thank them for their valuable contribution
in our endeavour to provide good quality instructional material for the school system.
I express my gratitude to Professor Krishna Kumar, Director and Professor
G. Ravindra, Joint Director, NCERT for their valuable motivation and guidiance from
time to time. Special thanks are also due to Dr. R.P.Maurya, Reader in Mathematics,
DESM for coordinating the programme, taking pains in editing and refinement of problems
and for making the manuscript pressworthy.
We look forward to feedback from students, teachers and parents for further
improvement of the contents of this book.
