NCERT Class 11 Maths Chapters and exercises Detail

In the 2025-26 CBSE syllabus, 14 chapters are included in class 11 Maths. Students need to create a routine incorporating all the chapters and divide an equal amount of time on each chapter before analyzing their progression again. Here are some details on every chapter and the links to the exercises.

Background wave

Chapter 1: Sets

“Sets” is one of the most important chapters in class 11 Maths. For example: In a class, some students play cricket, some play football and some play both sports. In this scenario, the concept of sets can be used.

Topics covered:

  • Sets and their representations

Chapter 2: Relations & Functions

“Relations and Functions” chapter holds the utmost importance in the exam. In day-to-day life, we see a lot of relationships like mother, father, brother. In Mathematics, it is also somewhat like that. Functions can be described as the mapping of students' roll numbers to their names.

Topics covered:

  • Cartesian product and relations
  • Function and their properties
  • Types of functions
  • Domain, codomain, range


Chapter 3: Trigonometric Functions

“Trigonometric functions” is a very useful chapter not only in mathematics but also for various real life situations like designing buildings and bridges, scaling height & distance, etc.

Topics covered:

  • Angles and their measurements
  • Trigonometric functions and identities
  • Sum and difference of angles
  • Trigonometric equations and applications


Chapter 4: Complex Numbers and Quadratic Equations

Numbers always have an impact on our lives. “Complex Numbers & Quadratic Equations” chapter will help students to deal with imaginary numbers and find solutions to quadratic equations with complex roots. The learning from this chapter can be used in Physics as well as vector algebra.

Topics covered:

  • Introduction to complex numbers and operations
  • Modulus and conjugate
  • Polar representation
  • Quadratic equations with real coefficients


Chapter 5: Linear Inequalities

Suppose you go to the market with 1000 rupees, and you have to buy some books which cost Rs. 200 each, and some copies each cost Rs. 120. In this case, you have to create inequalities to check which combination is the best for you in your budget. So, you can see that learning Linear inequalities is an absolute necessity.

Topics covered:

  • Linear inequalities in one variable
  • Graphical solutions in two variables
  • Systems of linear inequalities


Chapter 6: Permutations and Combinations

Before starting the concepts of Permutations and Combinations, it is mandatory to be familiar with the concepts of the fundamental principle of counting.
If you have 3 friends, A, B, & C, and you want to arrange them in a line as ABC, then that process is called permutation, where order matters.
Again, if you want to choose two friends from A, B, and C, then choosing B & A is the same as choosing A & B. This is called Combinations, where order doesn't matter.

Topics covered:

  • Fundamental principle of counting
  • Permutations
  • Combinations
  • Their applications


Chapter 7: Binomial Theorem

The Binomial theorem is part of algebra which describes the algebraic expansion of powers and binomials. In this chapter, we will study how to expand (a+b)n for positive integral values of n. Binomial theorem is used in the calculation of probabilities, in algebraic expansions and coding.

Topics covered:

  • Binomial expansion
  • Pascal's triangle
  • General and middle terms
  • Applications


Chapter 8: Sequences and Series

“Sequence & Series” is a very important chapter of algebra, which discusses Arithmetic progression and Geometric progression. Monthly savings in a bank account follow the arithmetic progression. But population growth or compound interest follows a geometric progression.

Topics covered:

  • Arithmetic progression
  • Geometric progression
  • Arithmetic mean
  • Geometric mean
  • Infinite GP


Chapter 9: Straight Lines

“Straight line” is an integral part of two-dimensional coordinate geometry. In our regular life, we see lots of geometric figures which are straight lines like roads, railway tracks, etc.

Topics covered:

  • Slope of a line
  • Different forms of line equations
  • Distance of a point from a line


Chapter 10: Conic Sections

In the “Conic section” chapter, students will find the concepts that will also be helpful in the application of integrals. The conic shapes, circle, hyperbola, parabola, and ellipse can be seen in various objects like Orbits of planets, satellite dishes, car headlights or footballs.

Topics covered:

  • Sections of a cone
  • Circle
  • Parabola
  • Ellipse
  • Hyperbola


Chapter 11: Introduction to Three-dimensional Geometry

In “Introduction to Three-Dimensional Geometry”, we will study how to represent a point in space, the distance between two points in three dimensions and section formulae. The usefulness of 3D geometry can be seen in various fields like video games, animation, architecture, space research, etc.

Topics covered:

  • Coordinate exes and planes in 3D
  • Coordinates of a point
  • Distance between two points
  • Section formula


Chapter 12: Limits and Derivatives

“Limits and Derivatives” is the opening chapter of calculus, where we learn to deal with the study of change in the function's value as the points in the domain change. Apart from calculus, these concepts are also used in physics, economics and biology.

Topics covered:

  • Limits
  • Evaluation of limits
  • Derivatives
  • Derivatives of polynomials and trigonometric functions


Chapter 13: Statistics

“Statistics” is a major part of Mathematics and it has vast usage in our lives. From calculating exam results to sports performance, survey data to analyzing weather reports, from media, politics to health studies, statistics is everywhere.

Topics covered:

  • Measures of dispersion
  • Range
  • Mean deviation, standard deviation, variance


Chapter 14: Probability

The concept of “Probability” is essential in class 11 exams as well as other competitive exams like JEE. The concept of random variable and probability will be used for prediction and estimation. Probability can also be used in weather forecasting, card games, predicting election results, machine learning, artificial intelligence, etc.

Topics covered:

  • Sample space and events
  • Types of events
  • Probability calculations
