Perfect Std. X Mathematics Challenging Questions is a meticulously compiled handbook for

students of Std. X. It is in accordance to the latest guidelines furnished in the Evaluation Pattern for Std. 10th

by the Maharashtra State Bureau of Textbook Production & Curriculum Research, Pune.

According to the New Paper Pattern of Std. X, students would be asked challenging questions of

Mathematics as they would appear in Q. 5 and Q. 6 of the Board Examination. Taking cognizance of this

change, we have meticulously crafted this book that includes exhaustive yet carefully selected challenging

questions along with solutions spanning across all the chapters of the Text Book.

We are confident that this book will cater to the needs of students and will help them to prepare

extremely well for their SSC Board Examination.

The journey to create a complete book is strewn with triumphs, failures and near misses. If you think

we’ve nearly missed something or want to applaud us for our triumphs, we’d love to hear from you on
