What Class 11 Maths Chapter 10 Conic Sections Covers

The chapter shows how a plane cutting a cone gives each curve, then derives the standard equation of the circle, parabola, ellipse and hyperbola in turn. The official NCERT sections are listed below.

Section Topic
10.1Introduction to conic sections
10.2Sections of a cone
10.3Circle
10.4Parabola
10.5Ellipse
10.6Hyperbola

Key Concepts You Will Study

Students should read the chapter with a pen and note each equation as it appears. The forms are compact but return in many later problems.

  • How a plane cuts a cone to give a circle, ellipse, parabola or hyperbola.
  • The standard equation of a circle with a given centre and radius.
  • The four standard forms of a parabola and its focus, directrix and latus rectum.
  • The ellipse, its major and minor axes, foci and eccentricity.
  • The hyperbola, its transverse and conjugate axes and its eccentricity.

Why Download the NCERT Book PDF for This Chapter

The NCERT textbook is the single most important source for the CBSE exam, and most JEE and CUET questions from this chapter are built directly on its examples.

  • Every Board question on conics comes from this text or its exercises.
  • The worked examples show the correct way to read a standard equation.
  • Reading offline from the PDF keeps every derivation and figure in one place.

How to Use the NCERT Book PDF for Conic Sections

Read the chapter once fully, then work through it a second time with the exercises open. A short, ordered plan keeps the four curves from blurring together.

  • Read each section, then write its standard equation in your own words in a single line.
  • Solve the in-text examples before looking at the given solution.
  • Attempt the back exercises, then check them against the NCERT Solutions below.
  • Revise the focus, directrix and eccentricity of each curve the night before the exam.
