is ✓7 a rational no if it is give resin and solve the answers pls
Answers
NO √7 IS NOT A RATIONAL NUMBER BECAUSE ITS VALUE WILL COME INTO POINTS AND THAT WILL NEVER BE REPEATED AND RECURRING.
√7 = 2.6457513111
so, there is no rexurring of numbers .so, ut is irrational.
HOPE IT HELOS U
A Rational Number of the form or a number which can be expressed in the form of p/q, where p and q are integers and q ≠ zero, is called a Rational Number. Example : 2 / 3 , -5 / 7, -10 / -3 are Rational Number.
✓7 a irrational nos.
Sol:
let us assume that √7 be rational.
then it must in the form of p / q [q ≠ 0] [p and q are co-prime]
√7 = p / q
⇒ √7 x q = p
squaring on both sides
⇒ 7q2= p2 ------> (1)
⇒p2 is divisible by 7
⇒p is divisible by 7
⇒p = 7c [c is a positive integer] [squaring on both sides ]
⇒p2 = 49 c2 --------- > (2)
subsitute p2 in equ (1) we get
⇒7q2 = 49 c2
⇒q2 = 7c2
⇒ q is divisble by 7
thus q and p have a common factor 7.
there is a contradiction
as our assumsion p & q are co prime but it has a common factor.
so that √7 is an irrational. proved
