3. What are the main chapters for Maths Class 10?
In Class 10 Maths, all the chapters are equally important to understand for building a good concept base. But according to the weightage of the chapters, algebra which includes four chapters, coordinate geometry which includes one chapter and coordinate geometry which includes one chapter have highest marks. For higher classes, introduction to trigonometry is also very important as the main chapters for class 11th and 12th are based on the concepts of trigonometry only.
