Draw, BC = 1 unit, so that BC  OB.
With O as center and OC as radius, draw an
arc to intersect the number line at D. Then,
OD = √3, i.e.,, D represents √3.

3.
Mark AB as a line segment of 2 units on the number line. Draw CB  AB of
length 1 unit.

Join AC. With the help of compass, taking A as center and AC as radius, draw
an arc such that it cuts the number line at D. Then, D represents √5.

4.
Decimal expansion of √2 is 1.414213…
It is non-terminating
terminating and also it is non
non-repeating.
So, √2is an irrational number.

5.
i.e., 𝑥 = 0.4777…
Let 𝑥 = 0.47, i.e.
So, 10𝑥 = 4.777… … (1)
and 100𝑥 = 47.777… … (2)
From (1) and (2), we get

Draw AC = (1010.5 + 1) = 11.5 cm.
With Ac as diameter, draw a semicircle.
Mark AB = 10..5 cm on AC.
Draw BD  AC to meet the semicircle at D.
Then, in cm, BD = √10.5.

13.
We have: 𝑎 = 7 − 4√3
⇒ 𝑎 = 4 + 3 − 4√3.
⇒ √𝑎 = 4 + 3 − 4√3
⇒ √𝑎 = 2 + (√3) − 2 × 2√3

⇒ √𝑎 = (2 − √3) .
⇒ √𝑎 = (2 − √3)
∴ = 2−

⇒ 3𝑚 − 3𝑛 = 6.
⇒ 𝑚−𝑛 =2 …(1)
Also, 𝑚+𝑛 =5 …(2) (Given)
On adding eqns. (1) and (2), we get
𝑚−𝑛 =2
𝑚+𝑛 =5
2𝑚 = 7
⇒ 𝑚= .
Now, putting the value of 𝑚 in eqn. (2), we get
∴ 𝑚+𝑛 =5
+𝑛 = 5
⇒ 𝑛=5−
⇒ 𝑛= .
Hence, 𝑚 = or 3.5 and 𝑛 = or 1.5.

20.
Let 2 = 3 = 6 = 𝑝.
From 2 = 𝑝, we get 2 =𝑝 …(1)
From 3 = 𝑝, we get 3 =𝑝 …(2)
So, from (1) and (2), we get
2 ×3 = 𝑝 ×𝑝
⇒ (2 × 3) = 𝑝 …(3)
Also, we have: 6 = 𝑝⇒(2 × 3) = 𝑝.
⇒ (2 × 3) ( ) = 𝑝 …(4)
So, from (3) and (4), we get
𝑥𝑦 = −𝑧(𝑥 + 𝑦)
⇒ − = ⇒− = + .
⇒ + + = 0, proved.
