Study Notes
Number System Class 9th
Real Numbers
- Real numbers are a combination of rational and irrational numbers.
- They can be represented on the number line.
- Examples: 3, 0.5, π, √2, etc.
Irrational Numbers
- Irrational numbers are numbers that cannot be expressed as a finite decimal or fraction.
- They have an infinite number of digits that never repeat in a predictable pattern.
- Examples: π, e, √2, etc.
Rational Numbers
- Rational numbers are numbers that can be expressed as a fraction (p/q) where p and q are integers and q ≠ 0.
- They can be expressed as a finite decimal or a recurring decimal.
- Examples: 3/4, 22/7, 0.5, etc.
Integers
- Integers are whole numbers, either positive, negative, or zero.
- They do not have a fractional part.
- Examples: ..., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ...
Properties of Rational Numbers
- Closure: The sum, difference, product, and quotient of two rational numbers is always a rational number.
- Commutativity: The order of rational numbers does not change the result of addition and multiplication.
- Associativity: The order in which rational numbers are added or multiplied does not change the result.
- Distributivity: The product of a rational number and the sum of two rational numbers is equal to the sum of the products.
Whole Numbers
- Whole numbers are positive integers, including zero.
- Examples: 0, 1, 2, 3, ...
- Whole numbers are a subset of integers.
Types of Numbers
- Natural Numbers: Positive integers, starting from 1. (1, 2, 3, ...)
- Whole Numbers: Positive integers, including zero. (0, 1, 2, 3, ...)
- Integers: Whole numbers, either positive, negative, or zero. (...,-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ...)
- Rational Numbers: Numbers that can be expressed as a fraction. (3/4, 22/7, 0.5, etc.)
- Irrational Numbers: Numbers that cannot be expressed as a finite decimal or fraction. (π, e, √2, etc.)
- Real Numbers: A combination of rational and irrational numbers.
About Pi (π)
- Pi (π) is an irrational number, approximately equal to 3.14159.
- It is a universal constant, representing the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter.
- Pi is a transcendental number, meaning it is not the root of any polynomial equation with integer coefficients.
