There will be 14 chapters in Mathematics, including the Class 11 and 12 topics, according to the new syllabus given by NTA. Hence, it is suggested to follow the NCERT books to prepare for JEE Mains. To help the aspirants, we have created an e-book on JEE Main Maths 2026 formulas. Students can also download the same and study from it.

JEE Main Maths Formula List 2026

Candidates must go through all the formulas and practice the mathematical problems. Without formulas, you cannot solve any problem, though you know how to solve it. Revising the formulas daily is very important. Here we have provided the Mathematics formulas for JEE Mains.

1. Standard form of Quadratic equation: ax2+bx+c=0

2. General equation: x=b±(b24ac)2a

3. Sum of roots =ba

4. Product of roots discriminate =b24ac

5. sin2(x)+cos2(x)=1

6. 1+tan2(x)=sec2(x)

7. 1+cot2(x)=cosec2(x)

8. Limit of a sum or difference: lim(f(x)±g(x))=limf(x)±limg(x)

9. Limit of a product: lim(f(x)g(x))=limf(x)×limg(x)

10. Limit of a quotient: lim(f(x)g(x))=limf(x)limg(x) if limg(x)0

11. Power Rule: ddx(xn)=nx(n1)

12. Sum/Difference Rule: ddx(f(x)±g(x))=f(x)±g(x)

13. Product Rule: ddx(f(x)g(x))=f(x)g(x)+f(x)g(x)

14. Quotient Rule: ddx(f(x)g(x))=[g(x)f(x)f(x)g(x)]g2(x)

15. xndx=xn+1n+1+c where n1

16. 1xdx=loge|x|+c

17. exdx=ex+c

18. axdx=aωlogea+c

19. Probability Formula
- P(AB)=P(A)+P(B)P(AB)
- P(AB)=P(A)×P(BA)
- P(AB)=P(AB)P(B)

20. Trigonometric Limits
Some important JEE formulas for trigonometric limit are
(i) limx0sinxx=1
(ii) limx0tanxx=1
(iii) limxasin(xa)xa=1

As limx0tanxx=limx0sinxx×1cosx
=limx0sinxx×limx01cosx=1×1
As limxasin(xa)xa=limh0sin((a+h)a)(a+h)a

=limh0sinhh=1

(iv) limxatan(xa)xa=1
(v) limxasin(f(x))f(x)=1, if limxaf(x)=0

Similarly, limxatan(f(x))f(x)=1, if limxaf(x)=0

(vi) limx0cosx=1
(vii) limx0sin1xx=1

As limx0sin1xx=limy0ysiny[sin1x=y]

=1

(viii) limx0tan1xx=1

21. Exponential Limits
(i) limx0ax1x=logea

Proof:

limx0ax1x=limx0(1+x(loga)11+x2(loga)22!+)1x

[using Taylor series expansion of ax ]

=limx0(loga1!+x(loga)22!+)=logea

(ii) limx0ex1x=1

In General, if xa, then we have
(a) limxaaf(x)1f(x)=logea
(b) limxaef(x)1f(x)=logee=1

Remembering important formulas from Maths will be very useful for the students preparing for the JEE Main 2025 exam. Students should practice a few questions on each formula just to remember them easily. Also refer to JEE Main- Top 30 Most Repeated Questions & Topics

Preparation tips for JEE Mains

Given below are some tips to help you prepare for JEE Main and score good marks in the exam:

1. First, students need to understand the Syllabus and Exam Pattern so that they can refer to the JEE Main syllabus from the official website.

2. Try to identify the important and high-weightage topics and prepare according to that.

3. Create an effective study plan according to your preparation level. Divide your preparation into monthly, weekly, and daily targets and allocate more time to difficult subjects or topics.

4. Students must focus on conceptual clarity; they must understand the logic and derivations behind every formula.

5. Try to solve questions regularly. Solve previous years' JEE Main question papers and attempt mock tests and sample papers regularly.

Tips to Learn Maths Formulas for JEE Main 2026

Students find it difficult to learn formulas for JEE Main, but with the right approach, they can remember. Given below are some points to remember:

1. Students must try to understand why a formula works and how chemical reactions occur, and their mechanism.

2. Then break down formulas into chapters or topics.

3. To learn these formulas easily, try to make a formula notebook.

4. Sometimes students must try to make Mnemonics and short tricks, as it helps in quick revision.

5. Try to solve as many questions and revise

6. Try to use diagrams and flowcharts.

Along with Math formulas also revise JEE Main Physics Formulas and JEE Main Chemistry Formulas

Good Morning, Aspirant,

Preparing for both NEET and JEE entrance exams at the same time would be challenging but possible. AS physics and chemistry are both subjects common to both exams. Students need to balance math and biology. A proper timetable can help you manage time and prepare for the exam without stress. You can register for the mock test for JEE students, conducted by Creers360. Giving a mock test can help you analyse your in-depth performance. The last date of registration on 8th January. The link to the mock test is attached herewith.


Hello Aspirant

Preparing for both NEET and JEE together is possible, but honestly, very tough.
The syllabus is huge. NEET needs strong Biology, and JEE needs strong Math.
Both exams have very different styles and expectations.
Only students with very strong basics and high discipline can manage both well.

If you are an average student, it’s better to choose one exam and focus fully on it. These are my honest advise to you, you can prepare for one exam and crack that exam, the future opportunities are many in JEE and NEET.

Hello

Yes, it creates a problem if you're 12th LC(state OBC) and JEE(Central OBC/EWS) categories differ.

JoSAA requires a central OBC-NCL certificate for OBC reservation; since Karnataka OBC isn't central, you will be treated as general, or you can use a Declaration for OBC-to-General conversions from during counseling, but switching to EWS needs you to have applied as EWS initially. Your EWS certificate works if you meet the income criteria, but yes the important  thing is Central OBC list for OBC, not state list.

Hope it helps you, in case of any doubts you can directly drop your query or you can visit to Careers360.com
