Exercise 1.1
Write the correct answer in each of the following:

1. Every rational number is
(A) a natural number
(B) an integer
(C) a real number
(D) a whole number
Answer: (C) a real number
Solution: For example ¼ is a rational number as well as real
number but not a natural, whole number or integer.

2.4 …
3. Decimal representation of a rational number cannot be
(A) terminating
1
(B) non-terminating
(C) non-terminating repeating
(D) non-terminating non-repeating
Answer: (D) non-terminating non-repeating
Solution: Because a non-terminating non-repeating number is
termed as irrational number.
4. The product of any two irrational numbers is
(A) always an irrational number
(B) always a rational number
(C) always an integer
(D) sometimes rational, sometimes irrational.
Answer: (D) sometimes rational, sometimes irrational.
Solution: For two irrational numbers 3+ 2 and 3 - 2,
the product: (3 + 2 ) (3 - 2 )=32−2=7, which is a rational number.

For two irrational numbers 3 + 2 and 2 ,
the product: (3 + 2 ) 2= 3 2 + 2, which is an irrational number.

(A) a finite decimal
(B) 1.41421
(C) non-terminating recurring
(D) non-terminating non-recurring.
Answer: (D) non-terminating non-recurring.
Solution: As 2 is an irrational number, so its decimal
representation will be non – terminating non – recurring.

EXERCISE – 1.2
1. Let x and y be rational and irrational numbers, respectively.
Is x + y necessarily an irrational number? Give an example
in support of your answer.
Answer: Yes. As the sum of a rational and an irrational number
is always an irrational number.
For example:
Let x = 3 and y = 3 =1.73205…… , then sum is
3+ 3
= 3 + 1.73205……
= 4.73205…..
which is an irrational number.
2. Let x be rational and y be irrational. Is xy necessarily
irrational? Justify your answer by an example.
Answer : No.
For example:
Let x = 0 and y = 3, then xy = 0 × 3 =0
Which is a rational number.
3. State whether the following statements are true or false?
Justify your answer.
2
(i) is a rational number.
3
(ii) There are infinitely many integers between any two integers.
(iii) Number of rational numbers between 15 and 18 is finite.
8
(iv) There are numbers which cannot be written in the form

p
, ≠0,𝑝,𝑞 both are integers.
q
(v) The square of an irrational number is always rational.

12
(vi) is not a rational number as 12 and 3 are not integers.
3
15
(vii) is written in the form 𝑝𝑞 ,𝑞 ≠0 and so it is a rational
3
number.
Answer: (i) False.
2
For a rational number , ≠0 p and q should be integers but in
3
,p( 2) is not an integer.

(ii) False. Because between 2 and 3, there is no integer.
(iii) False. Because between any two rational numbers we can
find infinitely many rational
numbers.www.tiwariacademy.com
5 p
(iv) True. Because is in the form of but here p and q are
3 q
not integers.
(v) False. Because ( 3 ) = 9 is an irrational number.

EXERCISE- 1.3
1. Find which of the variables x, y, z and u represent rational
numbers and which irrational numbers:
(i) x2 = 5 (ii) y2 = 9
(iii) z2 = .04 (iv) 𝑢2=174
Answer:
(i) x2 = 5 ⇒x=± 5
So, x is an irrational number.

(ii) y2 = 9 ⇒y=±3
So, y is a rational number.
(iii) z2 = .04 ⇒𝑧=±0.2
So, z is a rational number.
17
(iv) u2=174 ⇒u=±

Answer:
13
5. Locate 5, 7 and 17 on the number line.

Answer :
Presentation of 5 on number line:
We write 5 as the sum of the squares of two natural numbers:
5 = 1 + 4 = 12 + 22
On the number line, take OA = 2 units.
Draw BA = 1 units, perpendicular to OA. Join OB.
By Pythagoras theorem,
OB = 5
Using a compass with centre O and radius OB, draw an arc which
intersects the number line at the point C. Then, C
corresponds to 5.
14
Presentation of 10 on number line:

10 = 1 + 9 = 12 + 32
OB = 10
corresponds to 10 .
Presentation of √17 on number line:

17 = 1 + 16 = 12 + 42
OB = 17
15
corresponds to 17 .
6. Represent geometrically the following numbers on the

number line:

Answer :
(i) 4.5
Presentation of 4.5 on number line:
Mark the distance 4.5 units from a fixed point A on a given line
to obtain a point B such that AB = 4.5 units. From B, mark
a distance of 1 unit and mark the new point as C. Find the
mid-point of AC and mark that point as O. Draw a semicircle
with centre O and radius OC. Draw a line perpendicular to
16
AC passing through B and intersecting the semicircle at D.

Then, BD = 4.5 .

1. Express 0.6+ 0.7 + 0.47 in the form , where p and q are
q
integers and q ≠0.

Answer:
Let x =0.6 ⇒ x = 6
or x = 3
10 5
Let y = 0.7 ……………. (1)

10 y = 7.7 …………….. (2)
10 y− y = 7.7 − 0.7
