Ganita Manjari — Mathematics Textbook for Class 9 (Part I)

NCERT Class 9 Mathematics textbook Ganita Manjari (Part I) for the 2026-27 session emphasises activity-based learning and reasoning. It covers coordinates, linear polynomials, number systems, algebraic identities, functions, perimeter and area, probability, and sequences.

Chapters (8)

01
Chapter 1: Orienting Yourself: The Use of Coordinates

This Class 9 Maths chapter introduces coordinate geometry: locating points on the Cartesian plane using ordered pairs (x, y), the x-axis, y-axis, origin, and the four quadrants. Students learn to plot points, read coordinates, and use the distance between locations, building the foundation for graphing relationships between quantities.

02
Chapter 2: Introduction to Linear Polynomials

This Class 9 Maths chapter introduces polynomials, focusing on linear polynomials in one variable. Students learn terms, coefficients, degree, and zeroes of a polynomial, how to evaluate expressions, and how a linear polynomial of the form ax + b relates to a straight-line graph, laying the groundwork for algebra and equations.

03
Chapter 3: The World of Numbers

This Class 9 Maths chapter explores the number system, including natural numbers, integers, rational numbers, and irrational numbers that together form the real numbers. Students learn to represent numbers on the number line, distinguish terminating and repeating decimals, and understand surds and the laws of exponents for real numbers.

04
Chapter 4: Exploring Algebraic Identities

This Class 9 Maths chapter develops algebraic identities — equalities true for all values of the variables. Students learn and apply standard identities such as (a + b)², (a − b)², and a² − b², expand and factorise expressions, and use these identities to simplify calculations and solve problems efficiently.

05
Chapter 5: I’m Up and Down, and Round and Round

This Class 9 Maths chapter introduces how quantities relate and change, using functions and their graphs. Students learn to read graphs that go up and down or repeat in cycles, identify increasing, decreasing, and periodic behaviour, and interpret the relationship between two changing quantities from tables and visual patterns.

06
Chapter 6: Measuring Space: Perimeter and Area

This Class 9 Maths chapter covers measuring two-dimensional space through perimeter and area. Students learn formulas for the perimeter and area of rectangles, squares, triangles, and circles, apply Heron's formula for triangles, and solve problems involving the area of plane figures and combined shapes in everyday contexts.

07
Chapter 7: The Mathematics of Maybe: Introduction to Probability

This Class 9 Maths chapter introduces probability, the measure of how likely an event is to happen. Students learn experimental (empirical) probability from real trials, the meaning of outcomes, events, and sample space, and how to express probability as a number between 0 and 1 using observed data from experiments like coin tosses and dice.

08
Chapter 8: Predicting What Comes Next: Exploring Sequences and Progressions

This Class 9 Maths chapter explores sequences and progressions — ordered lists of numbers that follow a rule. Students learn to recognise patterns, find the rule and the general term of a sequence, work with arithmetic progressions where a common difference is added each time, and predict and calculate later terms in a pattern.
