Question 1.1. Classify the decimal form of the given rational numbers into terminating and non-terminating recurring type :

(i) \(\frac{13}{5}\)      (ii) \(\frac{2}{11}\)        (iii) \(\frac{29}{16}\)     (iv) \(\frac{17}{125}\)      (v) \(\frac{11}{6}\) 

Solution :

Rational numbers (i) \(\frac{13}{5}\) , (iii) \(\frac{29}{16}\), (iv) \(\frac{11}{6}\) are terminating type, because their denominators are prime factors 2 or 5.

Rational numbers (ii) \(\frac{2}{11}\), (v) \(\frac{11}{6}\) are non-terminating recurring type, because their denominators are other than prime factors 2 or 5.

Question 1.2. Write the following rational numbers in decimal form :

(i) \(\frac{127}{200}\),    (ii) \(\frac{25}{99}\),    (iii) \(\frac{23}{7}\),    (iv) \(\frac{4}{5}\),     (v) \(\frac{17}{8}\)

Solution :

(i) \(\frac{127}{200}\)

Answer is : \(\frac{127}{200}\) = 0.635

(ii) \(\frac{25}{99}\)

Question 1.3. Write the following rational numbers in \(\frac{p}{q}\)  form :

(i) \(0.\dot{6}\)                                  

Solution :

Let x = \(0.\dot{6}\)  Here, 6 is the only recurring digit.

So multiply both the sides by 10

10x = \(6.\dot{6}\)

∴ 10x – x = \(6.\dot{6}\)  - \(0.\dot{6}\)

∴ 9x = 6

∴ x = \(\frac{6}{9}=\frac{2}{3}\)

∴ \(0.\dot{6}=\frac{2}{3}\)

(ii) \(0.\overline{37}\)

Solution :

(ii) \(0.\overline{37}\)

Let x = \(0.\overline{37}\) Here, 3 and 7 are the two recurring digits.

So multiply both the sides by 100.

100x = \(37.\overline{37}\)

∴ 100x – x =  - \(37.\overline{37}-0.\overline{37}\)

∴ 99x = 37 ∴ x = \(\frac{37}{99}\)

∴ \(0.\overline{37}\)  = \(\frac{37}{99}\)

(iii) \(3.\overline{17}\) 

Solution :

Let x = \(3.\overline{17}\). Here, 1 and 7 are the two recurring digits.

So multiply both the sides by 100.

100x = \(317.\overline{17}\)

∴ 100x – x = \(317.\overline{17}\) - \(3.\overline{17}\)

∴ 99x = 314 ∴ x = \(\frac{314}{99}\)

∴ \(3.\overline{17}\) = \(\frac{314}{99}\)

(iv) \(15.\overline{89}\)          

Solution :

Let x = \(15.\overline{89}\). Here, 8 and 9 are the two recurring digits.

So multiply both the sides by 100.

100x = \(1589.\overline{89}\)

∴ 100x – x = \(1589.\overline{89}\)  - \(15.\overline{89}\)

∴ 99x = 1574 ∴ x = \(\frac{1574}{99}\)

∴ \(15.\overline{89}\) = \(\frac{1574}{99}\)

(v) \(2.\overline{514}\)

Solution :

Let x = \(2.\overline{514}\). Here, 5, 1 and 4 are the two recurring digits.

So multiply both the sides by 1000.

1000x = \(2514.\overline{514}\)

∴ 1000x – x = \(2514.\overline{514}\) - \(2.\overline{514}\)

∴ 999x = 2512 ∴ x = \(\frac{2512}{999}\)

∴ \(2.\overline{514}\)  = \(\frac{2512}{999}\)

Practice set 2.2

Question 2.1. Show that \(4\sqrt{2}\) is an irrational number.

Solution :

Proof : Let us suppose that \(4\sqrt{2}\) is a rational number.

∴ \(4\sqrt{2}\) = \(\frac{a}{b}\), (b ≠ 0). a and b are integers.

∴ \(\sqrt{2}\) = \(\frac{a}{4b}\)   ……..(1)

∴ \(\frac{a}{4b}\) is a rational number. Because integers are rational numbers.

The right hand side of equation (1) is a rational number and the left hand side [\(\sqrt{2}\)] is an irrational number.

This is contradictory.

∴ our supposition that \(4\sqrt{2}\) is a rational number is wrong.

∴ \(4\sqrt{2}\) is an irrational number.

Question 2.2. Prove that 3 + \(\sqrt{5}\) is an irrational number.

Solution :

Proof : Let us suppose that 3 + \(\sqrt{5}\) is a rational number.

3 + \(\sqrt{5}\) = \(\frac{a}{b}\), b ≠ 0. a and b are integers.

\(\sqrt{5}\) = \(\frac{a}{b}\) - 3       ……..(1)

Here, the right hand side of equation (1) is a rational number and the left hand side [\(\sqrt{5}\)] is an irrational number.

This is contradictory.

∴ our supposition that 3 + \(\sqrt{5}\) is a rational number is wrong.

∴ 3 + \(\sqrt{5}\) is an irrational number.

Question 2.3. Represent the numbers \(\sqrt{5}\)  and \(\sqrt{10}\)  on a number line.

Solution :

Draw a number line n. Take OP = 2 units.

Draw PQ ⊥ line n.

Take PQ = 1 unit.

In right angled Δ OPQ, by Pythagoras' theorem,

OQ2 = OP2 + PQ2

= (2)2 + (1)2

= 4 + 1

= 5

∴ OQ = \(\sqrt{5}\).

With centre O and OQ as radius, draw an arc intersecting line n in the point R.

OR = \(\sqrt{5}\) on the number line n.

i.e. the coordinate of the point R is \(\sqrt{5}\).

Similarly, we can find point U on the number line n

such that OU = \(\sqrt{10}\).

Question 2.4. Write any three rational numbers between the two numbers given below :

(i) 0.3 and - 0.5

Solution :

\(\frac{1}{2}\)[0.3 + (-0.5)]

= \(\frac{1}{2}\)(0.3 - 0.5)

= \(\frac{1}{2}\)(-0.2) = -0.1

\(\frac{1}{2}\)[-0.1 + (-0.5)]

= \(\frac{1}{2}\)(-0.1 - 0.5)

= \(\frac{1}{2}\)(-0.6) = -0.3

\(\frac{1}{2}\)[-0.1 + 0.3)]

= \(\frac{1}{2}\)(0.2) = 0.1

Answer is : - 0.3, -0.1 and 0.1 are the three rational numbers between the numbers 0.3 and -0.5.

(ii) - 2.3 and - 2.33

Solution :

- 2.3 = - 2.300 and - 2.33 = - 2.330

\(\frac{1}{2}\)[-2.300 + (-2.330)]

\(\frac{1}{2}\)[-2.300 -2.330]

\(\frac{1}{2}\)[-4.630] = -2.315

\(\frac{1}{2}\)[-2.315 + (-2.300)]

\(\frac{1}{2}\)[-2.315 -2.300]

\(\frac{1}{2}\)[-4.615] = - 2.3075

\(\frac{1}{2}\)[-2.315 + (-2.330)]

\(\frac{1}{2}\)[-2.315 -2.330]

\(\frac{1}{2}\)[-4.645] = - 2.3225

Answer is : - 2.3075, - 2.315, - 2.3225 are the three rational numbers between - 2.3 and - 2.33.

Proof : Let us assume that 5 + \(\sqrt{7}\)  is a rational number.

∴ 5 + \(\sqrt{7}\) = \(\frac{p}{q}\),     q ≠ 0, p and q are integers.

∴ \(\sqrt{7}\) = \(\frac{p}{q}\) - 5

Here, the right hand side, \(\frac{p}{q}\) - 5, is a rational number, while the left hand side, \(\sqrt{7}\), is an irrational number.

This is contradictory.
