As you want here I am giving below Shortcuts Tricks for Maths subject to preparation of MHT CET exam:

Shortcuts Tricks for Maths subject to preparation of MHT CET exam
Some Critical Tips :

If certain conditions are given , look for the options that satisfy the condition .
If an equation is asked then substitute the values in the option in the equation .
Use Trial and Error Method / Elimination method .
For co-ordinate geometry , draw graphs according to equations given and predict the answer .
The first step in Mathematics is mostly crucial and may require Simplification . Here are techniques of SImplifications that you should try : 1. Rationalizing 2. Plus & Minus 3. Multiplying and Dividing 4. Dividing Throughout by 5.Splitting the Numerator 6. Squaring on Both Sides .

Mathematical Logic
Matrices

Do Adjoint first or transpose/square/other operation first , the answer is same .
Try to use the options for finding the answer , rather than solving the entire sum .
Use properties of determinants to simplify a given matrix .

Trigonometric Equations

For General Solution , bring the equation in one of the sandard forms . This can be done by using factorization formulae (i.e. to convert from addition to multiplication) .
For Solutions of Triangle problems , the following techniques should be used :
sin
a2, b2,c2
A + B + C = 180
Half Angle
Factorization formulae

Pair of Straight Lines

Use Auxillary Equation for finding slopes .
For point of intersection of pair of lines , substitute the points in the combined equation .
For Area of triangle whose sides are given by a combined equation and equation of the third side is given , then find height by perpendicular distance formula and Area = (height)2 / √3

Vectors
3 D Geometry
Lines
Planes

The coefficients of x,y,z in equation of a plane ar the direction ratios of the Normal to the Plane .
The line of intersection of two planes is perpendicular to the normals of both the planes .

Linear Programming Problems

Use Trial & Error Method .

Continuity

If the Question is of the form 0/0 , then apply L'Hopital's Rule

Differentiation

For Implicit , use shortcut .

Application of Derivatives
Integration

For Indefinite Integration ; Differentiate the options to reach the Question .
For u.v ; use the shortcut
Use simplification techniques listed in point 5 of Critical Tips . Mostly , in integration , the first step is important .
For sine - cosine integrals , mostly dividing numerator and denominator with cos2x gives the answer.

Definite Integration
Application of Definite Integration

Draw Rough Graph for better understanding of question .
Area Shortcuts :
Area bounded by parabola y2 = 4ax and line y = mx ; Area = 8a2/3m3
Area bounded by parabola x2 = 4by and line y = mx ; Area = 8b2m3/3
Area bounded by parabola y2 = 4ax and its latus rectum ; Area = 8a2/3
Area bounded by parabola x2 = 4by and its Latus Rectum ; Area = 8b2/3
Area bounded by parabolas y2 = 4ax and x2 = 4by ; Area = 16ab/3
