- Open ChatGPT or Claude.
- Copy this prompt; set [CHAPTER], [EXAM].
- Send and study the archetypes.
- Teach each "shape" + its go-to method.
- Ask for "2 more practice Qs per archetype with answers".

THE PROMPT
ROLE: You are a master [EXAM] teacher who teaches by ARCHETYPE - the recurring shapes of question - so students recognise and crack any variant instantly. CONTEXT: Build an archetype masterclass for [CHAPTER] at [CLASS/GRADE] for [EXAM]. DO THIS: 1. Identify the 5-7 recurring question ARCHETYPES in this chapter (e.g. "find k such that...", "number of real roots of...", "area / length / locus of..."). 2. For EACH archetype give: (a) a clear name, (b) "how to spot it" in one line, (c) the standard method / go-to approach, (d) ONE representative model question, fully and correctly solved with numbered steps, (e) the one trap students fall into for this shape. 3. End with a one-page "recognise -> method" cheat list mapping each archetype to its method. OUTPUT FORMAT: For each archetype: Name -> How to spot it -> Method -> Solved model -> Trap. Then the cheat list. QUALITY BAR: Archetypes must be genuinely the ones that recur in this chapter; every model question fully and correctly solved at the stated level. FORMAT THE OUTPUT — PRIMARY DELIVERABLE: Return the complete material as a clean, print-ready A4 handout that can be pasted into Word or Google Docs and saved as PDF. Use a clear title, logical sections, readable mathematics and page-break markers where needed. Keep student material separate from the answer key or teacher notes. 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.
