Mathematics is a vast and complex field that deals with numbers, quantities, and space, either as abstract concepts (pure mathematics) or as applied concepts in other areas, such as physics and engineering (applied mathematics). The National Testing Agency has released the CUET Maths Syllabus 2024, an essential resource for candidates preparing for the CUET exams. The students should understand the topics thoroughly to do well in the CUET Mathematics exams.
