    PERMUTATION COMBINATION

    FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES OF COUNTING

    (i) Multiplication Principle: If an operation can be performed in m different ways following

    which a second operation can be performed in n different ways, then the two operations in

    succession can be performed in m n ways. This can be extended to any finite number of

    operations.

    Permutation:

    Definition:

    Each of the different arrangement which can be made by taking some (or all) number of

    given things is called a permutation of things.

    Note :

    Factorial Notation :

    The product of first n natural numbers is generally written as n! and is read as factorial n.

    i.e., n! = n (n 1)(n 2) . . . 3. 2. 1

    some important properties

    (i)n! = n (n 1) ! (ii) (2n)! = 2n. n! [1. 3. 5. 7. . . . (2n 1)]

    (iii)0! = 1! = 1 (iv) factorials of negative integers are not defined

    Important Results

    (i) The number of permutations of n different things, taking r at a time is denoted bynPr

    or P (n, r)

    nPr= nn r

    !!

    0 r n

    = n (n 1) (n 2) . . . (n r + 1).

    Note:

    (i) The number of permutations of n different things taken all at a time = nPn= n!

    (ii) nP0= 1, nP

    1= n and nP

    n 1= nP

    n= n!.

    (iii) nPr= n (n 1P

    r 1) = n (n 1) (n 2)(n 2P

    r 2) = n (n 1) (n 2) (n 3P

    r 3) = . . .

    Alternative :

    (Combinational proof) nPrdentoes the number of ways of arranging r-objects out of

    n-objects, in a line. This work can be done in the following way also.

    Suppose the objects are a1, a

    2, . . ., a

    n.First we find the number of permutations, in which a

    1

    does not appear. Number of such permutations isn 1Pr 1

    .Further we consider those arrange-

    ments, in which a1necessarily appears. Number of such permutation is r. n 1P

    r 1, as we can

    arrange (r 1) objects out of (n 1) objects in n 1Pr 1

    ways, and then in any such permutation

    we can fix the position of a1in r - ways.

    Now using the principle of addition, the required number is n 1Pr+ r. n 1Pr 1.

    (ii) The number of permutations of n things taken all at a time, p are alike of one kind, q are alike

    of second kind and r are alike of a third kind and the rest n (p + q + r) are all different is

    !

    ! ! !

    n

    p q r

    (iii) The number of permutations of n different things taken r at a time when each things may be

    repeated any number of times is nr.

    COMBINATION

    Defination :

    Each of the different group or selection which can be made by taking some (or all) number

    of given things, without reference to the order of the things in each group, is called a combina-

    tion.

    Important Results

    (i) The number of combinations of n different things taken r at a time is denoted by

    Note:

    (i) nCris a natural number.

    PRINCIPLE OF INCLUSION AND EXCLUSION

    If A1, A

    2, . . . , A

    mare m sets and n(S) denotes the number of elements in the set S, then

    k

    m sms 1

    Note that if

    m

    k 1x A

    , then x belongs to at least one of AAk, 1 k m.

    As another application of the principle of inclusion and exclusion, number of derangement of

    n objects (number of ways in which n numbered balls (from 1 to n) can be placed in n

    numbered boxes (from 1 to n), one in each box, so that no ball goes to its corresponding

    numbered box), denoted by n can be obtained. Infact we have

    n = n n1 1 1 1

    1 . . . 11 2 3 n

    .

    MULTINOMIAL THEOREM

    Consider the equation x1+ x

    2+ . . . +x

    r= n, where i i i i, i ia x b ; a b ,x I;i 1, 2, . . ., r. In

    order to find the number of solutions of the given equation satisfying the given conditions we

    observe that the number of solutions is the same as the coefficient of xnin the product

    1 1 1 1a a 1 a 2 bx x x . . .x 2 2 2 2a a 1 a 2 bx x x . . .x

    3 3 3 3a a 1 a 2 bx x x . . .x . . . . . . . r r r r a a 1 a 2 bx x x . . .x .

    For example, if we have to find the number of non-negative integral solutions of

    x1+ x

    2+ . . . + x

    r= n, then as above the required number is the coefficient of xn in

    0 1 n 0 1 n 0 1 nx x . . . x x x . . . x . . . x x . . . x r brackets

    = Coefficient of xnin (1 + x + x2+ . . . + xn)r

    = Coefficient of xnin (1 + x + x2+ . . . )r

    = Coefficient of xnin (1 x) r

    =Coefficient of xnin

    Note :

    If there are objects of one kind, m objects of second kind, n objects of third kind and so on;

    then the number of ways of choosing r objects out of these objects is the coefficient of xrin the

    expansion of

    (1 + x + x2+ x3+ . . . + x ) (1 + x + x2+ . . . + xm) (1 + x + x2+ . . . + xn)

    Further if one object of each kind is to be included, then the number of ways of choosing r

    objects out of these objects is the coefficient of xrin the expansion of

    (x + x2+ x3+ . . . + x ) (x + x2+ x3+ . . . + xm) (x + x2+ x3+ . . . + xn) . . .

    EXPONENT OF PRIME IN n!

    Let p be a given prime and n any positive integer, then maximum power of p present in n! is

    n

    p

    + 2 3n n

    . .. ,p p

    where [ ] denotes the greatest integer function.

    The proof of the above formula can be obtained using the fact that nm

    gives the number of

    integral multiples of m in 1, 2, . . . , n; for any positive integers n and m.

    The above formula does not work for composite numbers. For example if we have to find the

    maximum power of 6 present in 32!, then the answer is not 232 32

    . . . 56 6

    , as 5 is the

    number of integral multiples of 6 in 1, 2, . . . , 32; and 6 can be obtained on multiplying 2 by

    3 also. Hence for the required number, we find the maximum powers of 2 and 3 (say r and s)

    present in 32!. Using the above formula r = 31 and s = 14. Hence 2 and 3 will be combined

    (to form 6) 14 times. Thus maximum power of 6 present in 32! is 14.

    Since 400 = 24. 52. 600 = 23. 3. 52and 8100 = 22. 34. 52we get N is divisible by each of 400, 600 and

    8100. Also N is divisible by four distinct primes, viz., 2,3,5 and 29.

    ILLUSTRATION : 08

    A letter lock consists of three rings marked with 15 different letters. If N denotes the number of ways

    in which it is possible to make unsuccessful attempts to open the lock, then

    a) 482/N b) N is product of 3 distinct prime numbers

    c) N is product of 4 distinct prime numbers d) none of these

    Solution :

    Since each ring has 15 positions, the total number of attempts that can be made to open the lock is 153.

    Out of these, there is just one attempt in which the lock will open. Therefore, N = 1531 = (15 1)

    (152+ 15 + 1) = 2.7.241 clearly, 482|N and N is product of three distinct prime numbers.

    PERMUTATIONS AND COMBINATIONS

    Solution :

    We have 1! + 2! + 3! + 4! = 33. Also 5! = 120, 6! = 720, 7! = 5040, 8! = 40320 and 9! = 326880.

    Thus, the tens digit of 1! + 2! + + 9! Is 1.

    Also, note that n! is divisible by 100 for all n 10, so that tens digits of 10! + 11! + + 49! is zero.

    Therefore, tens digit of 1! + 2! ++49! Is 1

    Solution :

    The total number of possible outcomes is 64. The number of possible outcomes in which 2 does not

    appear on an die is 54, so that tens digit of 10! + 11! + +49! is zero. Therefore, the number of

    possible outcomes in which at least one die shows a 2 is 64

    54

    = 1296 625 = 671.

    BINOMIAL THEOREM

    DEFINITION OF BINOMIAL EXPRESSION AND BINOMIAL EXPANSION

    An expression containing two terms, is called a binomial expression. For examplea + b/x, x + 1/y, a y2etc. are binomial expressions. Expansion of (x + a)nis called BinomialExpansion.

    Expression containing three terms are called trinomials. For example x + y + z is a trinomialexpression. In general an expression containing more than two terms is called a multinomial.

    Definition of binomial theorem

    If n is a positive integer and x, y are two complex numbers, then

    n

    n n n r r r

    r 0

    x y C x y

    = nC0xn+ nC

    1xn 1 y + nC

    2xn 2y2+ . . . + nC

    nyn . . . (i)

    The coefficients nC0, nC

    1, . . . , nC

    nare called binomial coefficients, while (i) is called the

    binomial expansion.

    Some important facts regarding Binomial Expansion

    1. There are (n + 1) terms in the expansion.

    2. The sum of the exponents of x and y in any term of the expansion is equal to n.

    3. The binomial coefficients of terms equidistant from the beginning and the end are equal,since nC

    r= nC

    n r.

    4. The term nCrxn ryris the (r + 1)th term from the beginning of the expansion. It is usually

    denoted by Tr + 1and is called the general term of the expansion.5. The rth term from the end is equal to the (n r + 2)th term from the beginning, i.e.,

    nCn r

    + 1

    xr 1 yn r + 1 .

    6. If n is even, then the expansion has only one middle term, then

    12

    th term i.e.,

    n n / 2 n / 2n / 2C x y .

    If n is odd, then the expansion has two middle terms, the

    n 1

    2

    th term and the

    n 3

    2

    th term

    i.e., n 1 /2 n 1 /2n

    n 1 / 2C x y

    and n 1 /2 n 1 / 2n

    n 1 / 2C x y

    .

    0 2 41

    C x C x y C x y x y x y2

    1 3 51

    C x y C x y C x y x y x y2

    3. Putting x = 1 and y = 1 in equation (i), we have

    n n n n n n0 1 2 n 1 nC C C C C 2 . . . (v)

    Thus, we see that the sum of the binomial coefficients of (x + y)nis 2n.

    TANGENTS AND NORMALS

    Definition :

    A tangent to a curve at a point is defined as the limiting positions of a secant obtained by

    joining the given point to another point in the vicinity on the curve as the second point tends to

    the first point along the curve or as the limiting position of a secant obtained by joining two

    points on the curve in the vicinity of the given point as both the points tend to the given point.

    Two tangents, real or imaginary, can be drawn to a circle from a point in the plane. Thetangents are real and distinct if the point is outside the circle, real and coincident if the point is

    on the circle, and imaginary if the point is inside the circle.

    The normal to a curve at a point is defined as the straight line passing through the point and

    perpendicular to the tangent at that point. In case of a circle, every normal passes through the

    centre of the circle.

    Chord of Contact :

    From a point P(x1, y1) two tangents PA and PB can be drawn to the circle. The chord ABjoining the points of contact A and B of the tangents from P is called the chord of contact of

    P(x1, y

    1) with respect to the circle.

    Equations of Tangents and Normals :

    If S = 0 be a curve than S1= 0 indicate the equation which is obtained by substituting

    x=x1and y = y

    1in the equation of the given curve, and T = 0 is the equation which is obtained

    by substituting x2= xx1,

    c2= a2 (1 + m2) and the point of contact is (a2m/c, a2/c) i.e. y = mx a 2m1 is always a

    tangent to the circle x2+ y2= a2whatever be the value of m.

    1S .

    Director Circle:

    The locus of the point of intersection of perpendicular tangents is called director circle.

    If 2)x( + 2)y( = r2 is the equation of a circle then its director circle is

    2)x( + 2)y( = 2r2

    The position of a point with respect to a circle :

    or 3x + 2y + 4 = 0 and 6x + 17y 5 = 0.

    The coordinates of the point of contact of the first tangent in (3) are obtained by solving

    2x 3y + 20 = 0 and 3x + 2y + 4 = 0;

    the coordinates are (4, 4).

    Similarly, the point of contact of the second tangent is (7/5, 1/5)

    RADICAL AXIS

    The radical axis of two circles is the locus of a point from which the tangent segments to the

    two circles are of equal length.

    Equation to the Radical Axis

    In general S S = 0 represents the equaion of the radical Axis to the two circles i.e.

    2x(g g ) + 2y (f f) + c c = 0 where S= x2+ y2+ 2gx + 2fy + c = 0 and S= x2+

    y 2 + 2 g x

    +2fy + c = 0

    * If S = 0 and S = 0 intersect in real and distinct point then S S = 0 is the equation of the

    common chord of the two circles.

    * If S = 0 and S = 0 touch each other, then S S = 0 is the equation of the common tangent

    to the two circles at the point of contact.

    Now, by the previous section, the radical axis of S1and S

    2is obtained by subtracting the

    equations of these circles ; hence it is

    S1 S

    2= 0 .......(2)

    Similarly, the radical axis of S2and S

    3is

    S2 S3= 0 .......(3)

    that is , (X, Y) satisfy S1 S

    But (4) is the radical axis of the circles S1and S

    3and hence the three radical axes are concur-

    rent. The point of concurrency of the three radical axes is called the radical centre.

    FAMILY OF CIRCLES :

    * If S x2+ y2+ 2gx + 2fy + c = 0 and S x2+ y2+ 2gx + 2fy + c = 0 are two intersecting

    circles , then S + lS = 0, l 1, is the equation of the family of circles passing through the

    points of intersection S = 0 and S = 0.

    * If S x2+ y2+ 2gx + 2fy + c = 0 is a circle which is intersected by the straight line

    ax + by + c = 0 at two real and distinct points, then S + l = 0 is the equation of the family

    of circles passing through the points of intersection of S = 0 and = 0. If = 0 touches

    S = 0 at P, then S = l = 0 is the equation of the family of circles, each touching = 0 at P.

    * The equation of a family of circles passing through two given points (x1, y

    Common Tangents to Two Circles :

    (a) The direct common tangents to two circles meet on the line of centres and divide itexternally in the ratio of the radii.

    (b) The transverse common tangents also meet on the line of centres and divide it internallyin the ratio of the radii.

    Note :

    (i) When two circles are real and non-intersecting, 4 common tangents can be drawn.

    (ii) When two circles touch each other externally, 3 common tangents can be drawn to the circle.

    (iii) When two circles intersect each other, two common tangents can be drawn to the circles.

    (iv) When two circles touch each other internally 1 common tangent can be drawn to the circles.

    ORTHOGONAL CIRCLES

    Two circles are said to be orthogonal if the tangents to the circles at either point of intersectionare at right angles.

    the circles, S1and S

    The tangent at A to the circles S1is perpendicular to the radius Q1A, and the tangent at A to S2is perpendicular to the radius Q

    Q1A and Q

    2A must also be at right angles. Accordingly, the condition that S

    or, on simplification, 2(gG + fF) = c + C. .......(4)

    Since, AQ2is perpendicular to the radius Q

    1A, the tangent at A to the circle S

    1passes through

    the centre of the circle S2; similarly, the tangent at A to S

    2passes through the centre of S

    In numerical examples the procedure of solution should be based on the condition expressed
