Answer:
...1: Use Euclid’s division lemma to show that the square of any positive integer is either of the form 3m or 3m + 1 for some integer m.
Solution: Let x be any positive integer and y =3.
By Euclid’s division algorithm;
x =3q +r (for some integer q ≥ 0 and r = 0, 1, 2 as r ≥ 0 and r < 3)
Therefore,
x = 3q, 3q+1 and 3q+2
As per the given question, if we take the square on both the sides, we get;
x2 = (3q)2 = 9q2 = 3.3q2
Let 3q2 = m
Therefore,
x2 = 3m ………………….(1)
x2 = (3q+1)2 = (3q)2 +12 +2 × 3q × 1 = 9q2 + 1 + 6q = 3(3q2 +2q) + 1
Substitute, 3q2+2q = m, to get,
x2 = 3m + 1 ……………………………. (2)
x2 = (3q+2)2 = (3q)2+22+2 × 3q × 2 = 9q2 + 4 + 12q = 3 (3q2 + 4q + 1) + 1
Again, substitute, 3q2+4q+1 = m, to get,
x2 = 3m + 1…………………………… (3)
Hence, from eq. 1, 2 and 3, we conclude that, the square of any positive integer is either of the form 3m or 3m + 1 for some integer m.
Q.2: Express each number as a product of its prime factors:
(i) 140
(ii) 156
(iii) 3825
(iv) 5005
(v) 7429
Solutions:
(i) 140
By Taking the LCM of 140, we will get the product of its prime factor.
Therefore, 140 = 2 × 2 × 5 × 7 × 1 = 22×5×7
(ii) 156
By Taking the LCM of 156, we will get the product of its prime factor.
Hence, 156 = 2 × 2 × 13 × 3 × 1 = 22 × 13 × 3
(iii) 3825
By Taking the LCM of 3825, we will get the product of its prime factor.
Hence, 3825 = 3 × 3 × 5 × 5 × 17 × 1 = 32 52×17
(iv) 5005
By Taking the LCM of 5005, we will get the product of its prime factor.
Hence, 5005 = 5 × 7 × 11 × 13 × 1 = 5 × 7 × 11 × 13
(v) 7429
By Taking the LCM of 7429, we will get the product of its prime factor.
Hence, 7429 = 17 × 19 × 23 × 1 = 17 × 19 × 23
