Chapter 2 of the new Ganita Manjari book is about Linear Polynomials. The Class 9 Maths Formula Sheet Chapter 2 Linear Polynomials puts the degree rule, the value of a polynomial, and the straight-line relationship y = ax + b together on one page for quick revision.

  • Formulas inside: about 14 rules, from degree and naming to slope and y-intercept.
  • What they cover: polynomial value, linear equations, linear patterns, and graphing a line.
  • Why one page helps: the whole chapter fits in front of you, so revision before a test is fast.

This sheet is prepared by subject teachers, matched to the current 2026-27 NCERT, and checked line by line so a Class 9 student can trust every rule.

What Does the Class 9 Maths Linear Polynomials Formula Sheet Cover?

The Class 9 Maths Formula Sheet Chapter 2 Linear Polynomials covers the full run of the chapter. You get the degree rule, the names for degree 0 to 3, the linear form ax + b, and how to find a polynomial's value at a number. It then lists how a linear polynomial becomes a linear equation, how linear patterns and growth or decay work, and how the line y = ax + b is set by its slope a and its y-intercept b. Everything is drawn straight from the book.

ConceptFormulaWhat it means
Degree of a polynomialhighest power of the variableRead the largest exponent that appears.
Naming by degree0 constant, 1 linear, 2 quadratic, 3 cubicThe name comes from the degree.
Linear polynomialp(x) = ax + b, a ≠ 0A degree-1 polynomial in one variable.
Value at x = kput k in place of xSubstitute and simplify to get the output.
Linear equationlinear polynomial = constantSet equal to a number, then solve for x.
Linear patternnth term = an + bA pattern with a constant difference.
Growth and decaya > 0 growth; a < 0 decayThe sign of a shows the direction.
Linear relationshipy = ax + bLinks two variables x and y.
Slopea = change in y per unit xThe fixed rate at which y changes.
y-interceptline cuts y-axis at (0, b)The value of y when x = 0.
Line through originy = axPasses through (0, 0); a is the slope.
Parallel linessame a, different bEqual slopes never meet.

When to Use Which Formula in Linear Polynomials

Choose the right rule by reading what the question asks. This short list keeps the choice simple.

  • If you must name a polynomial, read its degree first.
  • If you need the output at a number, substitute it for x and simplify.
  • If a linear polynomial equals a number, solve it as a linear equation.
  • If a pattern has a constant difference, its rule is an + b.
  • If you have two data points, form two equations to find a and b.
  • If you must draw y = ax + b, plot any two points and join them.
