Where the marks are

CBSE publishes marks by unit, not by chapter. The Coordinate Geometry unit carries 6 of the 80 marks in the paper, across 1 chapters. Our estimate for this chapter alone is about 6 marks — useful for deciding what to study first, but it is our split of the unit, not an official CBSE per-chapter figure.

This chapter is not on the board yet.

We author chapters one at a time and only publish once the lesson has been checked end to end, so we would rather say "not yet" than ship a thin one. The syllabus above is accurate and free to use meanwhile.
