Intro [1:44]
Bhaiya welcomes everyone to the Maha Marathon Day 1 of Mathematics for Class 10th board exams. With only two days left, the aim is to revise the entire syllabus covered in the last 14 days. Bhaiya assures that the marathon won't be too long, allowing ample time for self-study. The focus will be on crisp revision of main concepts and important questions. Bhaiya clarifies that this session is for those who have been following the 14-day series and need a recap, not for beginners seeking basic understanding. If anyone feels the need for self-study, they should prioritize that over watching the live session.
Triangles: BPT and Similarity [5:19]
Today's chapters include Triangles, Circles, Areas Related to Circles, Polynomials, Pair of Linear Equations, Quadratic Equations, and Probability. For each chapter, Bhaiya will first revise the basic formulas, theorems, and theory, followed by important questions. These questions are designed to reinforce understanding of the topics. Bhaiya starts with the chapter on Triangles, highlighting the two main concepts: BPT (Basic Proportionality Theorem) and Similarity. BPT, also known as Thales Theorem, states that if a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle, it divides the other two sides proportionally. Bhaiya explains the theorem and its converse, along with the proof of BPT.
Triangles: BPT Theorem Proof and Problems [10:30]
Bhaiya explains the converse of BPT, stating that if the ratios of sides are equal, then the line is parallel to the third side. He then revises the proof of BPT, explaining the construction and steps involved in proving the theorem. Bhaiya emphasizes that to prove lines are parallel, one simply needs to prove the ratios are equal. Bhaiya solves a question to illustrate the application of BPT and its converse. He explains how to identify parallel lines and apply BPT to find unknown lengths or prove relationships between sides.
Triangles: Parallel Lines and Proportionality [23:36]
Bhaiya solves another problem involving parallel lines and proportionality. He explains how to use BPT to find relationships between sides and then apply the converse of BPT to prove that lines are parallel. Bhaiya emphasizes the importance of identifying the correct triangles and applying the theorems appropriately. Bhaiya discusses a famous question involving multiple parallel lines within a quadrilateral. He explains how to use construction to create triangles and then apply BPT to prove the required relationship between sides.

Bhaiya discusses the converse of the previous theorem and explains how it can be used to prove that a quadrilateral is a trapezium. He explains the construction required and how to use BPT and its converse to prove that one pair of sides is parallel. Bhaiya then transitions to the concept of similarity in triangles. He explains the criteria for similarity, including AAA, SAS, and SSS. Bhaiya emphasizes that if triangles are similar, then corresponding angles are equal and corresponding sides are proportional.
Triangles: Similarity Criteria and Problem Solving [46:01]
Bhaiya explains the Angle-Angle-Angle (AAA) criterion for similarity, stating that if two angles of one triangle are equal to two angles of another triangle, then the triangles are similar. He also explains the Side-Angle-Side (SAS) criterion, stating that if two sides of one triangle are proportional to two sides of another triangle and the included angles are equal, then the triangles are similar. Bhaiya then discusses the Side-Side-Side (SSS) criterion, stating that if all three sides of one triangle are proportional to the corresponding sides of another triangle, then the triangles are similar.

Bhaiya transitions to the chapter on Polynomials, defining a polynomial as an algebraic expression in which the powers of the variables are whole numbers. Bhaiya explains how to determine the number of zeroes of a polynomial by looking at its graph. The number of zeroes is equal to the number of times the graph intersects the x-axis. Bhaiya explains the relationship between the zeroes and coefficients of a quadratic polynomial. If α and β are the zeroes of the quadratic polynomial ax² + bx + c, then α + β = -b/a and αβ = c/a.

Bhaiya transitions to the chapter on Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables. He explains that a pair of linear equations in two variables represents two lines. These lines can either intersect, coincide, or be parallel. Bhaiya explains how to determine whether two lines are intersecting, coincident, or parallel by comparing the ratios of their coefficients. If a1/a2 ≠ b1/b2, then the lines are intersecting and have a unique solution. If a1/a2 = b1/b2 = c1/c2, then the lines are coincident and have infinitely many solutions. If a1/a2 = b1/b2 ≠ c1/c2, then the lines are parallel and have no solution.
Pair of Linear Equations in Two Variables: Consistency and Solving Problems [4:48:57]
Bhaiya explains the concepts of consistent and inconsistent systems of equations. If a system of equations has at least one solution, then it is consistent.

Bhaiya explains that the probability of any event always lies between 0 and 1. If the probability of an event is 0, then it is an impossible event. If the probability of an event is 1, then it is a sure event. Bhaiya explains the formula: P(E) + P(not E) = 1, where P(E) is the probability of an event occurring and P(not E) is the probability of the event not occurring.
