Revision Notes

Class-9 Mathematics
Chapter 1 – Number Systems

• Real numbers and imaginary number together form number systems.


• We will discuss imaginary numbers in higher classes, let us restrict our
discussion to real numbers
• Real numbers are the set of natural numbers, whole numbers, integers,
rational and irrational numbers. Denoted by R
• Natural numbers:
• These are counting numbers from starting from 1 .
• The set 1,2,3,4,5,6,7.... is called natural numbers.
• Denoted by N
• Whole numbers:
• These are the set of natural numbers including 0 .
• The set 0,1,2,3,4,5,6.... is called whole numbers.
• Denoted by W
• Integers:
• These are the set of negative numbers, positive numbers and 0
excluding fractions.
• The set .... − 3, −2, −1,0,1,2,3.... is called integers.
• Denoted by Z
• Rational numbers:
• These are those number which can be expressed in the form of fraction
p
i.e., where p and q are integers and q  0 .
q
3 −2 −3
• For example: , , , etc.
5 9 4
• Denoted by Q
• There are infinitely many rational numbers between any two rational
numbers.
• Irrational numbers:
• These are those which are not rational i.e., which cannot be expressed

p
in the form of where p and q are integers and q  0 .
q
• For example: 2, 3, 5, etc.

Real Numbers and their Decimal Expansions


There are two cases of decimal expansions
1. Remainder becomes zero
• Decimal expansion of numbers whose remainder becomes zero after
some step is called terminating.
7
• For example: = 0.875 , the remainder becomes zero after some steps
8
2. Remainder never become zero
• Decimal expansion of numbers whose remainder never becomes zero
after some step is called non-terminating.
• It is further divided into non-terminating recurring and non-terminating
non-recurring.
• Non-terminating recurring means numbers which keep on repeating
the same value after decimal point.
9
• For example: = 0.818181....
11
• Non-terminating non-recurring means numbers which do not keep on
repeating the same value after decimal point but remainder never become
zero.
• For example: value of  = 3.141592653589793283....
• Decimal expansion of rational numbers is either terminating or non
terminating recurring.
• Decimal expansion of irrational numbers is non-terminating non
recurring.

Representing Real Number on Number Line


• Representation of real number on number line can be done by the process
of successive magnification.
• For example: If we want to locate 4.377 on the number line we proceed
by successive magnification i.e., 4.37 lies between 4 and 5 then loca
4.37 between 4.36 and 4.38 further divide this portion into ten equal

parts then 4.377 will lie between 4.376 and 4.378 . The number line is
shown below

Operations on Real Numbers


• Real number can be added, subtracted, multiplied and divided.
• For example:
Add 2 + 3 and 2 − 2 3
2+ 3+2−2 3
=4− 3
Subtract 2 + 3 and 2 − 2 3
(2 + 3) − (2 − 2 3)
=2+ 3−2+2 3
=3 3
Multiply 2 2 and 3 3
2 2 3 3
= 2  3 2  3
=6 6
Divide 10 15 by 5
10 15 10 3  5
= = 10 3
5 5

• Some common facts of operation on real numbers are
1. The sum or difference of a rational number and an irrational number is
irrational.
2. The product or quotient of a non-zero rational number with an
irrational number is irrational.
3. If we add, subtract, multiply or divide two irrationals, then the result may
be rational or irrational.

Rationalizing denominator
• When denominator is irrational then the process of converting the
denominator rational is called rationalizing denominator.
• It is obtained by multiplying numerator and denominator by the irrational
term present in denominator but with opposite sign.
1
• For example: Rationalizing
2 +3
1 2 −3

2 +3 2 −3
2 −3
=
( )
2
2 − 32
2 −3
=
2−9
2 −3
=
−7

Laws of Exponents for Real Numbers


There are some laws of exponent for real numbers such as
a. x m .x n = x m+n
xm
b. n
= x m−n
x
c. (x )m n
= x mn
x m y m = ( xy )
m
d.
