RATIONAL NUMBERS
Student Information
Name :
Class : VIII
Section :
Roll No. :
Name of the school :
Name of the Chapter : RATIONAL NUMBERS
Title of the Project : Representation of Rational Numbers on number line.
Aim of the project : To represent rational numbers on number line.
Materials used : Colour papers, sketch, scale, pencil
Information analysis :
Natural Numbers : All counting numbers are called natural numbers
Natural numbers are denoted by 'N'.
N = {1,2,3,4,.....}
Whole Numbers : All counting numbers along with zero are called whole
numbers.
Whole numbers are denoted by 'W'.
W = {0,1,2,3,......}
Integers : All positive and negative numbers along with zero are called
integers.
Integers are denoted by 'Z' or I
Z or I = {..........,–3, –2, –1, 0, 1, 2, 3,.......}

F
Rational Numbers : A number which can be expressed in the form of
G , where p
and q are integers and q ≠ 0 and p, q are co-primes are called
a "Rational Numbers".
Rational numbers are also called as "Quaotient numbers".
So, they are represented by the letter "Q'.

 Procedure : Diagrammatic representation of rational numbers.
# −#
Problem solving : Represent and on the number line.
! !
Draw a line in a mark a point 'O' on it represent zero. Divide
each unit into three equal parts to the right side and the

left side of the zero respectively. Take 5 parts out of these

#
the fifth part on the right of zero represents and the
!
#
fifth one of the left of the zero represents as shown in
!
the below figure.

Conclusion : We can represent any rational number on the number line.

 LINEAR EQUATIONS IN ONE VARIABLE
Student Information
Name :
Class : VIII
Section :
Roll No. :
Name of the school :
Name of the Chapter : Linear equations in one variable
Title of the project : Geometrical problems solving by using linear equations.
Aim of the Project : To solve geometrical problems by using linear equations.
Information Analysis :
Linear equation : An equation in which highest degree of the variable is one is
called linear equation.
Materials used : Pencil, Pen, Eraser and Scale, Geometry box........
Procedure : i) From the adjacent figure
find the value of 'x' and also
find the angles.
* From the figure, 'l' and 'm'
two parallel lines and 'n' is a
transversal.
From the figure, (4x–7) o ,
(3x+5) o are two alternate
interior angles.
If two lines are parallel intersect by a transversal then,
alternate interior angles are equal.
⇒ 4x–7 = 3x+5
⇒ 4x–3x = 5+7
⇒ x = 12
o
(4x–7) = 4(12)–7 (3x+5)o = 3(12)+5
= 48–7 = 36+5
= 41o = 41o
ii) If length and breadth of
rectangle is (5x+4)m, (x–4 )m
and its perimeter is 108 m then
find the length and breadth by
using linear equations.

Bhashyam's :: 4 :: 8th Class_Maths_ F.A.–I

 Length of the rectangle = (5x+4)m
Breadth of rectangle = (x–4)m
Perimeter of rectangle = 108m
⇒ 2(l+b) = 108
⇒ 2 (5x+4+x–4) = 108
⇒ 2 (6x) = 108
⇒ 12 x = 108
&
x=

∴ x=9
∴ Length = 5x+4
= 5(9) + 4 = 49m
Breadth = x–4
= 9–4
= 5m
iii) In triangle PQR, ∠ P = 54o, ∠ Q = 46o, find the exterior
angle PRS by using
linear equation.
* In the ∆ PQR,
∠ P=54 , ∠ Q=46o
o

Let ∠ PRS = xo
We know that, "In a
triangle, exterior
angle is equal to the
sum of the two
interior opposite angles".
∠ PRS = ∠ P+ ∠ Q
x = 54+46
x = 100o
∠ PRS = 100o
Conclusion : From the above process, different types of geometrical problems
we can solve by using linear equations.
Experience of the student : I understand how to solve the geometrical problems by using
the linear equations with the help of this project.
