प्रश्न

Evaluate:

`5/9 + 3/-4`

योग

उत्तर

`5/9 - 3/4` 

2 9, 4
2 9, 2
3 9, 1
3 3, 1
  1,1

(LCM of 9 and 4 = 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 = 36)

= `(5xx4)/(9xx4) - (3xx9)/(4xx9)`

= `(20-27)/36 = (-7)/36`

(LCM of 9 and 4 = 36)

= `(-7)/36`

Write five rational numbers which are smaller than 2.


Observe the number line and answer the questions.

  1. Which number is indicated by point B? 
  2. Which point indicates the number `1 3/4`?
  3. State whether the statement ‘the point D denotes the number `5/2`’ is true or false.

The number `sqrt2` is shown on a number line. Steps are given to show `sqrt3` on the number line using `sqrt2`. Fill in the boxes properly and complete the activity.

Activity :

  • The point Q on the number line shows the number ______.
  • A line perpendicular to the number line is drawn through the point Q. Point R is at unit distance from Q on the line.
  • Right angled ∆ORQ is obtained by drawing seg OR. 

`l  ("OQ") = sqrt2` ,    `l("QR") = 1`

`therefore` by Pythagoras theorem,

`[l("OR")]^2  = [l("OQ")]^2 + [l("QR")]^2 `

= `square^2`+ `square^2` = `square` + `square`

= `square`

∴ l(OR) = `square`

Draw an arc with centre O and radius OR. Mark the point of intersection of the line and the arc as C. The point C shows the number `sqrt3`.


Show the number √5 on the number line.
