Prime Factorisation

It is observed that 35= 5x7
It is observed that 1092 = 2x2x3x13x7
HCF (35,1092) = 7

LCM (35,1092)= 5460


LCM (35,1092) X HCF( 35,1092) = 35 X 1092


The Fundamental theorem of Arithmetic states that every composite number can be uniquely expressed as product of prime factors, apart from the order of factors.
Find the HCF and LCM of 65 and 90. Prime factors are shown below.

To make a square root spiral

Follow the steps shown in the following picture and make a square root spiral.
Procedure:

  1. Draw a line segment OP1 of unit length (Let OP1 = 2cm).
  2. At P1 construct an angle of 90 degrees. Let the new ray be P1X, such that angle OP1X = 90 degrees.
  3. Cut off P1P2 = 2cm on P1X.
  4. Join OP2.
  5. Find OP2 using Pythagoras theorem. OP2 = Sqrt (2)

Decimal expansion of rational numbers

Rational numbers are those numbers which can be expressed in the form p/q ,q is not equal to 0, p and q are integers.
The decimal expansion of rational numbers is either terminating or non terminating and recurring.
Example 1: Consider the decimal expansion of 7/8
7/8 = 0.875
its decimal expansion is terminating.
Consider the decimal expansion of 1/7.
1/7 = 0.142857142587142587....
Its decimal expansion is non terminating and repeating. Exploratory task:
Observe the decimal expansions of 1/7, 2/7, 3/7, 4/7 and 5/7 .
1/7 = 0.142857142857142857142857142857...
2/7 = 0.285714285714285714285714285714...
3/7 = 0.428571428571428571428571428571...

4/7 = 0.571428571428571428571428571428...
5/7 = 0.714285714285714285714285714285...
What specific do you notice?
Observe the following:
1/8 terminates after 3 digits.
1/8 = 0.125
2/8=1/4 terminates after 2 digits.
1/4 = 0.25
3/8 terminates after 3 digits.
3/8 = 0.375
4/8=1/2 terminates after 1 digit.
1/2 = 0.5
5/8 terminates after 3 digits.
5/8 = 0.625
6/8=3/4 terminates after 2 digits.
3/4 = 0.75
7/8 terminates after 3 digits.
7/8 = 0.875
