Question

Show that the square of any positive integer is of form 4q or 4q + 1 by using Euclid division Lemma

Answer 1

Let a be any positive integer and b=2

By ussing euclids division lemma we get

a=bm+r

Now when r=0 , a=2m

a²=(2m) ²

a²=4m²

a²=4(m²)

a²=4q. {m²=q}


When r=1, a=2m+1

a²=(2m+1)²

a²=4m²+1+4m

a²=4(m²+m) +1

a²=4q+1. {q=m²+m}


Therefore, for any positive square integer we can write 4q or 4q+1

Answer 2

Question : -

→ Use Euclid's Division lemma to show that the Square of any positive integer cannot be of form 5m + 2 or 5m + 3 for some integer m.

▶ Step-by-step explanation : -

Let ‘a’ be the any positive integer .

And, b = 5 .

→ Using Euclid's division lemma :-

==> a = bq + r ; 0 ≤ r < b .

==> 0 ≤ r < 5 .

•°• Possible values of r = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 .

→ Taking r = 0 .

Then, a = bq + r .

==> a = 5q + 0 .

==> a = ( 5q )² .

==> a = 5( 5q² ) .

•°• a = 5m . [ Where m = 5q² ] .

→ Taking r = 1 .

==> a = 5q + 1 .

==> a = ( 5q + 1 )² .

==> a = 25q² + 10q + 1 .

==> a = 5( 5q² + 2q ) + 1 .

•°• a = 5m + 1 . [ Where m = 5q² + 2q ] .

→ Taking r = 2 .

==> a = 5q + 2 .

==> a = ( 5q + 2 )² .

==> a = 25q² + 20q + 4 .

==> a = 5( 5q² + 4q ) + 4 .

•°• a = 5m + 4 . [ Where m = 5q² + 4q ] .

→ Taking r = 3 .

==> a = 5q + 3 .

==> a = ( 5q + 3 )² .

==> a = 25q² + 30q + 9 .

==> a = 25q² + 30q + 5 + 4 .

==> a = 5( 5q² + 6q + 1 ) + 4 .

•°• a = 5m + 4 . [ Where m = 5q² + 6q + 1 ] .

→ Taking r = 4 .

==> a = 5q + 4 .

==> a = ( 5q + 4 )² .

==> a = 25q² + 40q + 16 .

==> a = 25q² + 40q + 15 + 1 .

==> a = 5( 5q² + 8q + 3 ) + 1 .

•°• a = 5m + 1 . [ Where m = 5q² + 8q + 3 ] .

→ Therefore, square of any positive integer in cannot be of the form 5m + 2 or 5m + 3 .

✔✔ Hence, it is proved ✅✅.
