Question 11 Mark
Express the following decimals in the form $\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}: 7.010$
Answer
Given decimal is $7.010$ Now we have to convert given decimal number into the $\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}$ form Let $\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}=7.010$ $\Rightarrow\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}=\frac{7010}{1000}$ $\Rightarrow\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}=\frac{701}{100}$ Hence, $7.010=\frac{701}{100}$

Question 21 Mark
Express the following decimals in the form $\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}: 9.90$
Answer
Given decimal is $9.90$ Now we have to convert given decimal number into the $\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}$ form Let $\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}=9.90$ $\Rightarrow\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}=\frac{990}{100}$ $\Rightarrow\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}=\frac{99}{10}$ Hence, $9.90=\frac{99}{10}$

Question 41 Mark
Examine, whether the following numbers are rational or irrational: $\big(\sqrt{2}-2\big)^2$
Answer
$\big(\sqrt{2}-2\big)^2$ We have, $\big(\sqrt{2}-2\big)^2$ $=2+4-4\sqrt{2}$ $=6+4\sqrt{2} 6$ is a rational number but $4\sqrt{2}$ is an irrational number. The sum of a rational number and an irrational number is an irrational number, so $\big(\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{4}\big)^2$ is an irrational number.

Question 181 Mark
Examine, whether the following numbers are rational or irrational:
$\big(2-\sqrt{2}\big)\big(2+\sqrt{2}\big)$
Answer
$\big(2-\sqrt{2}\big)\big(2+\sqrt{2}\big)$
We have,
$\big(2-\sqrt{2}\big)\big(2+\sqrt{2}\big)=(2)^2-(\sqrt{2})^2$[Since, $(a+b)(a-b)=a^2-b^2$]
$4-2=\frac{2}{1}$
Since, $2$ is a rational number.
$\big(2-\sqrt{2}\big)\big(2+\sqrt{2}\big)$ is a rational number.

Question 211 Mark
Examine, whether the following numbers are rational or irrational: $\big(\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}\big)^2$
Answer
$\big(\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}\big)^2$
We have, $\big(\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}\big)^2=2+2\sqrt{6}+3=5+\sqrt{6}$ [Since, $(a+b)^2=a^2+2 a b+b^2$]
The sum of a rational number and an irrational number is an irrational number, so $\big(\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{3}\big)^2$ is an irrational number.

Question 241 Mark
Express the following decimals in the form $\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}:$
$2.15$
Answer
Given decimal is $2.15$
Now we have to convert given decimal number into the $\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}$ form
Let $\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}=2.15$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}=\frac{215}{1000}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{p}}{\text{q}}=\frac{43}{100}$
Hence, $2.15=\frac{43}{20}$

Question 251 Mark
Find two irrational numbers lying between $0.1$ and $0.12.$
Answer
Let $a = 0.1 , b = 0.12$ Here a and b are rational number. So we observe that in first decimal place a and b have same digit. So $a < b.$ Hence two irrational numbers are $0.1010010001...$ and $0.11010010001...$ lying between $0.1$ and $0.12.$

Question 311 Mark
In the following equations, find which variables $x, y$ and $z$ etc. represent rational or irrational numbers:
$\text{t}^2=0.4$
Answer
We have,
$\text{t}^2=0.4$
Taking square root on both sides, we get,
$\text{t}=\sqrt{\Big(\frac{4}{10}\Big)}$
$\text{t}=\frac{2}{\sqrt{10}}$
Since, quotient of a rational and an irrational number is irrational number. $t^2 = 0.4$ is an irrational number.
