how to represent 2+√3 on number line with explanation
Answers
Answer:
Simple method: sqrt (3) = 1.732 (approx).
2 + sqrt(3) = 3.732. Draw a point at location which approximately represents 3.732. (point Q in fig. 1). This represents number (2+ sqrt3).
Steps of construction:-
1. First of all draw a number line and measure each unit.
2. Draw √2 on number line.
3. Make a perpendicular line of 90° on the end point of √2.
4. Measure one unit of number line and make an arc on perpendicular line and name it point O.
5. Join the point O and Point 0 on the number line.
6. Measure the joined line of Point 0 and point O.
7. Now make an arc from Point O towards the positive side of number line.
8. You will get √3 on the number line. Now extend √3 by 2 units on the number line.
9. Now you have √3+2.
