Question 5 Verify which of the following statements are true. (i) (k + 1) (k + 2) โ (k + 3) is always 2.Solving (๐+1)(๐+2)โ(๐+3) = [๐(๐+๐)+๐(๐+๐)] โ(๐+3) = [๐^2+2๐+๐+2] โ(๐+3) = [๐^๐+๐๐+๐] โ(๐+๐) = ๐^2+3๐+2โ๐โ3 = ๐^2+(3๐โ๐)+(2โ3) = ๐^๐+๐๐โ๐ Since the value is not 2. โด The statement is false Question 5 Verify which of the following statements are true. (ii) (2q + 1) (2q โ 3) is a multiple of 4.Solving (2๐+1)(2๐โ3) = ๐๐(๐๐โ๐)+๐(๐๐โ๐) = 2๐ ร 2๐โ2 ร 3 ร ๐+2๐โ3 =4๐^2โ6๐+2๐โ3 =๐๐^๐โ๐๐โ๐ Since we cannot take out 4 common, the expression is not a multiple of 4 โด The statement is false Question 5 Verify which of the following statements are true. (iii) Squares of even numbers are multiples of 4, and squares of odd numbers are 1 more than multiples of 8.Any even number can be written as 2n Now, Square of even number = (2n)2 = 4n2 Since 4 is multiplied to the number, it means it is a multiple Therefore, Squares of even numbers are multiples of 4 Any odd number can be written as 2n + 1 Now, Square of odd number = (2n + 1)2 = (2n)2 + 2 ร 2n ร 1 + 12 = 4n2 + 4n + 1 = 4(n2 + n) + 1 Thus, squares of odd numbers are 1 more than multiple of 4 We can also say that squares of odd numbers are 1 more than multiple of 8 Example: 32 = 9 = 8 + 1 Thus, the given statement is True Question 5 Verify which of the following statements are true. (iv) (6n + 2)2 โ (4n + 3)2 is 5 less than a square number.Now, (6n+2)^2โ(4n+3)^2 Using (a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2 = [(๐๐)^๐+๐ ร ๐๐ ร ๐+๐^๐ ]โ[(๐๐)^๐+๐ ร ๐๐ ร ๐+๐^๐ ] = [36๐^2+24๐+4]โ[16๐^2+24๐+9] = 36๐^2+24๐+4โ16๐^2โ24๐โ9 = (36๐^2โ16๐^2)+(24๐โ24๐)+(4โ9) = 20๐^2โ5 Thus, the equation is 5 less than square number Hence, the statement is true
