Exercise 1.3 Class 10 Maths

Real Numbers

Class 10 Maths Exercise 1.3 Question 1

Prove that √5 is irrational.

Proof: Let, √5 be a rational

Then, √5 = \frac p q , where p, q are co-prime

⇒ p = √5.q

⇒ p² = 5q² —————-(1)

Equation (1) means, p² is divisible by 5

So, p is divisible by 5 ——-(A)

So, p = 5k , where k is any integers.

⇒ p² = 25k²

⇒ 5q² = 25k²     [ from (1)]

Implies, q² = 5k²

Equation (2) means, q² is divisible by 5

So, q is divisible by 5 ———> (B)

So, from (A) & (B), we see that, p & q both are divisible by 5. That means, they are not co-prime Number. So, √5 can’t be rational.

Therefore, √5 is an irrational Number.

Class 10  Maths Exercise 1.3 Question 2

Prove that 3 + 2√5 is irrational.

Solution: Let, 3 + 2√5 be a rational.

So, 3 + 2√5 =   \frac p q , where p, q are integers.

⇒ 2√5 = \frac p q – 3

⇒ √5 = \cfrac { \cfrac p q - 3} {2}

OR,  √5 = \tfrac {p-3q} {2q}

Implies, Irrational Number = Rational Numner

Which is not possible.

So, 3 + 2√5 can’t be rational

Therefore, 3 + 2√5 is irrational Number.

Class 10 Maths Exercise 1.3 Question 3

Prove that the following numbers are irrational.

(i) \cfrac {1} {√5}     (ii) 7√5    (iii) 6 + √2

Solutions:

(i) Let, \cfrac {1} {√5} be  a rational number.

So, \cfrac {1} {√5} = \frac p q , where p, q are co-prime

⇒ q = √2.p

⇒ q² = 2p² ———————-> (a)

Means, q² is divisible by 2

Or, q is sdivisible by 2  ———> (1)

⇒ q = 2k, where k is any integer

⇒ q² = 4k²

Or, 2p² = 4k²      { from (a)}

⇒ p² = 2k²

Means, p² is divisible by 2

So, p is divisible by 2 ————> (2)

From (1) & (2) statements ⇒ p & q both are divisible by 2

So, p, q are not co-prime, means \cfrac {1} {√5} can’t be rational

So, \cfrac {1} {√5} is an irrational number.

(ii) Let, 7√5 be a rational number.

So, 7√5 = \frac p q

⇒ √5 = \cfrac {p} {7q}

⇒ A irrational number = A rational number [ as p, 7, q all are rational]

Which is not possible. So, 7√5 can’t be a rational number.

Therefore, 7√5 is irrational.

(iii) Let, 6 + √2 be a rational number

So, 6 + √2 = \frac p q

⇒ √2 = \frac p q – 6

⇒ √2 = \cfrac {p-6q} {q}

Implies, a irrational number = a rational number as p, 6, q all are rational

Which is not possible. So, 6 + √2 can’t be rational

Therefore, 6 + √2 is a irrational number.

 

ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS from Ex 1.3 class 10 Chapter 1:

We have listed some most important additional questions too from the exercise 1.3 class 10 maths chapter 1 “Real Numbers”. Try do solve them yourself and inform us by commenting bellow that you have solved these or NOT.

  1. Prove that √3 is irrational
  2. Show that 5 – √7 is a irrational number
  3. Prove that 3√5 is a irrational number.
  4. Prove that 3 – 2√5 is a irrational number.
  5. What is co-prime numbers?

WHAT IS CO PROIME NUMBERS?

Well! while solving the above problems, we often used a word “Co-Prime” numbers. So, Which type of numbers are known as the co-prime numbers? The defination of co-prime number is  – ” Two or more numbers are said to be co-prime or relatively prime, if , the numbers are divisible by ONLY 1 at the same time together”. That means, if the common factor of some numbers is 1, then the numbers will be considered as co prime numbers.

For example, if we consider 2 and 5, then , at the same moment, together, they are only divisible by 1. So, 2 & 5 are coprime numbers. Sometimes, some composite numbers can also create some co-prime numbers together. For example, 4 and 9 are not prime numbers. But, if we consider them together, they are only divisible by 1 at the same time, isn’t it? So, though 4 and 9 are separately two composite numbers, they together create a pair of co-prime numbers.

Theorem USED in Ex 1.3 Class 10 maths :

Theorem 1: Suppose p is a prime number. Suppose p divides a² . Then automatically, p will also devide a

Rational Numbers:

Any number, that can be expressed in the form \frac p q , where p and q are integers (co-prime) and the denominator, means q ≠ 0 are known as a rational number. Examples: All integers, √4, √9 , \frac 22 7 , 3.14 etc….

Irrational Numbers:

Any numbers, which can’t be expressed in \frac p q , where p and q are integers (co-prime) and q ≠ 0 are known as a irrational numbers. For example: Pi (π), 3.57252….., √2, √5 etc…
