DIRECTION: In the following questions a statement of assertion (A) is followed by a statement of
Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as:
a. Both assertion(A) and reason(R) are true and reason(R) is the correct explanation of
assertion(A).
b. Both assertion(A) and reason(R) are true but reason(R) is not the correct explanation of
assertion.
c. Assertion(A) is true but reason(R) is false.
d. Assertion(A) is false but reason(R) is true.

38 Assertion (A): 2 is a rational number.

Reason (R): The square root of all positive integers are rational.
39 Assertion (A): 𝑎𝑚 . 𝑎𝑛 = 𝑎𝑚+𝑛
Reason (R): Exponents can be added if base is same in product of numbers.
40 Assertion (A): 0.189 is a terminating decimal.
Reason (R): A decimal in which a digit or set of digits is repeated periodically, is called a
repeating or recurring decimal.

 19. Case study
Mr. Roy, a Mathematics teacher explained some key points of unit1 of class IX to his students.
Some are given here.
• There are infinite rational numbers between any two rational numbers.
• Rationalisation of a denominator means to change the irrational denominator to rational
form.
• A number is irrational if its decimal form is non-terminating non- recurring

On the basis of these key points, Answer the following question.

i) What is the reciprocal of 2 + √3 with rational denominator?

ii) Write a rational number between √2 and √3.
iii) Is 0.401400140001… is irrational?
iv) Find the value of (√11 + √7) (√11 − √7).
