CBSE Class 10 Mathematics Real Numbers Assignment Set 06

1. Euclid’s division lemma :
For given positive integers ‘a’ and ‘b’ there exist unique whole numbers ‘q’ and ‘r’ satisfying the relation a = bq + r, 0 ≤ r < b.

2. Euclid’s division algorithms :
HCF of any two positive integers a and b. With a > b is obtained as follows:
Step 1 : Apply Euclid’s division lemma to a and b to find q and r such
that a = bq + r , 0 ≤ r < b.
Step 2 : If r = 0, HCF (a, b) = b if r ≠ 0, apply Euclid’s lemma to b and r.

3. The Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic :
Every composite number can be expressed (factorized) as a product of primes and this factorization is unique, apart from the order in which the prime factors occur.

4. Let x p/q, q ≠ 0 to be a rational number, such that the prime factorization of ‘q’ is of the form 2^m5ⁿ, where m, n are non-negative integers. Then x has a decimal expansion which is terminating.

5. Let x p/q, q ≠ 0 be a rational number, such that the prime factorization of q is not of the form 2m5n, where m, n are non-negative integers. Then x has a decimal expansion which is non-terminating repeating.

6. √p is irrational, which p is a prime. A number is called irrational if it cannot be written in the form p/q where p and q are integers and q ≠ 0.
