A complete, exam-board-aligned chapter with theory, solved examples, graded exercises and full answer key, ready to paste into Word.
Works on any free AI · Best tool: Claude (free) or ChatGPT (free)
✅ How to use this effectively
- 1. Fill the bracketed class, board and topic.
- 2. Paste your syllabus learning points.
- 3. Ask for Part 1 (theory) first.
- 4. Then say 'continue with examples and exercises'.
- 5. Copy each part into Word.
🔧 If it is not right, reply with this: If a worked example skips a step, reply: 'Re-do Example 3 with every algebra step shown line by line, and re-verify the final answer two ways.'
THE PROMPT
Act as a senior mathematics author and curriculum head writing a publication-quality textbook chapter for a commercial study guide.
CONTEXT: The chapter is for [CLASS/GRADE], aligned to [BOARD or EXAM]. The chapter topic is [CHAPTER TOPIC]. Readers are average-to-strong students who study mostly on their own, so the writing must be precise but warm, and fully self-contained.
YOUR TASK:
1. Open with a one-paragraph intuitive motivation (why this topic matters, a real or historical hook).
2. State clear, numbered Learning Outcomes.
3. Develop the theory in logical sections, each with: a plain-English idea, the formal definition/theorem (boxed), a short derivation or proof sketch, and a memory cue.
4. Give 6-8 graded SOLVED EXAMPLES (easy to hard), each fully worked with every step and a one-line 'why this step' note.
5. Provide an EXERCISE SET of 20 questions in three tiers: Foundation (8), Standard (8), Challenge (4), each marked with its tier.
6. End with a crisp SUMMARY and a FORMULA TABLE.
INPUT: Here are the exact syllabus points to cover: [PASTE SYLLABUS POINTS]. (If blank, infer the standard scope for the named board.)
HOW TO WORK IT OUT: Solve every example and exercise internally first. VERIFY each final answer by at least two independent checks (e.g. substitution, alternative method, dimensional/limit sanity check). Never invent formulas, theorems or data; if a result is conditional, state the conditions. Keep all mathematics fully legible in clean linear notation (use ^ for powers, sqrt(), fractions as a/b, clearly bracketed). Maintain consistent notation throughout the chapter.
OUTPUT FORMAT (exact order, with these headings): TITLE BLOCK (chapter title + 'Compiled by [YOUR NAME]'); 1. Introduction; 2. Learning Outcomes; 3. Theory (numbered sub-sections with boxed definitions); 4. Solved Examples (Example 1...8); 5. Exercises (Foundation / Standard / Challenge); 6. Answer Key (final answers for all 20, plus 4 full solutions for the Challenge tier); 7. Chapter Summary; 8. Formula Table.
RULES: Plain ASCII maths only, straight quotes and normal hyphens. No filler, no repetition, no fabricated citations. Difficulty must rise smoothly. If the chapter is long, produce it in clearly labelled parts and tell me to say 'continue'.
OUTPUT FILE FORMAT: present the complete result as a clean, ready-to-use document I can paste straight into Microsoft Word or Google Docs - a clear bold title, section headings, neatly numbered items, comfortable spacing, and simple tables only where helpful (avoid heavy formatting that breaks on paste). It must also print cleanly to PDF on A4 (File > Print > Save as PDF). Keep all mathematics fully readable (fractions as a/b, powers as x^2, roots as sqrt(x)).
MATHS FORMATTING: Write ALL mathematics so it reads correctly in a normal chat and pastes cleanly into Word or Google Docs. Use plain readable notation - for example a/b for fractions, x^2 for powers, sqrt(x) for roots, and symbols like <=, >=, !=, +-, pi, theta, integral and sum. Do NOT output raw LaTeX or code such as \frac{}{}, \sqrt{}, x^{2}, $...$ or \( ... \) - these appear as broken symbols to a teacher in a free chat.
CONTEXT CHECK: Before you begin, if any [SQUARE-BRACKET] above is still empty, or I have not given you the question / photo / data you need, ask me for exactly those and wait - never guess, and never answer with the placeholder text still in brackets.
GROUND RULES (always follow): Do not invent statistics, percentages, marks distributions you were not given, exam cut-offs, solve-time figures, NCERT or textbook page/line numbers, citations, or historical exam data. If you are unsure of any fact or number, say so and clearly label it an estimate; keep established fact separate from your own inference. Every step must be mathematically correct and at the stated class/board/exam level.
