 Engineering Drawing/graphic tools

Drawing is the language of engineers. Thousands (1000) of words cannot describe a part correctly which a single drawing represents accurately. Ideas of engineers are recorded by preparing a drawing, and execution of work is also carried out on basics of drawings. Communication of engineers is done with the help of drawings. Like music, drawing is an universal language of the engineering world.


Drawing instruments are used to prepare drawings easily and accurately. The accuracy of drawings depends on the quality of instruments. Desirable accuracy is only possible with quality instruments. It is therefore necessary to obtain the instruments of superior quality.

Modern farming techniques

 Modern farming techniques make agriculture more efficient, productive, and sustainable by using advanced tools and methods. Here’s a simpler explanation: { Manure and it's type } 1. Precision Farming Using tools like GPS and sensors to give plants exactly what they need—water, fertilizers, or pesticides—at the right time and place. 2. Soil-Free Farming Hydroponics: Growing plants in water with nutrients instead of soil. Aquaponics: Combining fish farming with plant growing, where fish waste fertilizes plants. 3. Vertical Farming Growing crops in stacked layers indoors, saving space and water, especially in cities. 4. Drones in Farming Small flying machines that check crops, spray pesticides, and help map farms for better management. 5. Smart Machines and AI Robots and smart tools that help plant, water, or harvest crops. AI can also predict weather and detect crop diseases. 6. Improved Seeds Scientists create seeds that produce more food, resist pests, and grow in tough con...

Algebra Important formula and identities

  Algebra Important formula and identities i. (a+b)² = a²+2ab+b² = (a-b)²+4ab ii. (a-b)² = a²-2ab+b² = (a+b)²-4ab iii. a²+b² = (a+b)²-2ab = (a-b)²+2ab iv. a²-b² = (a+b)(a-b) v. (a-b)³ = a³-b³-3a²b+3ab² = a³-b³-3ab(a-b) vi. a³+b³ = (a+b)³-3ab(a+b) = (a+b)(a²-ab+b²) vii. a³-b³ = (a-b)³+3ab(a-b) = (a-b)(a²+ab+b²) viii. a³+b³+c³-3abc = 1/2(a+b+c)[(a-b)²+(b-c)²+(c-a)²] ix. a³+b³+c³-3abc = (a+b+c)(a²+b²+c²-ab-bc-ca) x. (a+b)³ = a³+b³+3a²b+3ab² = a³+b³+3ab(a+b) xi. a⁴-b⁴=(a²+b²)(a+b)(a-b) xii. (a+b+c)² = a²+b²+c²+2ab+2bc+2ca xiii. (a-b+c)² = a²+b²+c²-2ab-2bc+2ca xiv. (a+b-c)² = a²+b²+c²+2ab-2bc-2ca xv.   (a-b-c)² = a²+b²+c²-2ab+2bc-2ca xvi. (x-a)(x+b) = x²+(a+b)x+ab xvii. (x-a)(x-b) = x²-(a+b)x+ab xviii. a²(b+c)+b²(c-a)+c²(a+b)+2abc = (a+b)(b+c)(c+a) xix.  a²(b²-c²)-b²(c²-a²)+c²(a²-b²) = (a-b)(b-c)(c-a) xx. ab(a-b)+bc(b-c)+ca(c-a) = -(a-b)(b-c)(c-a) xi. (a+b)²+(a-b)²=2(a²+b²) xii. (a+b)²-(a-b)² = 4ab xiii. (a+b+c)³ = a³+b³+c³+3(a+b)(b+c)(c+a) xiv. 2a²b²+2b²c²+2c²a...
