Some Identities (โ๐)^2=๐ โ(๐^2 )=๐ โ๐๐=โ๐ รโ๐ โ(๐/๐)=โ๐/โ๐ (โ๐โโ๐)(โ๐+โ๐)=๐โ๐ (๐โโ๐)(๐+โ๐)=๐^2โ๐ (โ๐+โ๐)^2=๐+๐+2โ๐๐ (โ๐+โ๐)(โ๐+โ๐)=โ๐๐+โ๐๐ + โ๐๐ + โ๐๐
Rationalising
Add (3โ2+7โ3) and (โ2โ5โ3)
Divide 5โ11 by 3โ33
Multiply 2โ15 by 7โ5
Simplify (โ5+โ7)^2
Simplify (โ4โโ13)(โ4+โ13)
Simplify (9โโ3)(9+โ3)
Simplify (3โ5โ5โ2)(4โ5+3โ2)
Rationalise the denominator of 8/โ7
Rationalise the denominator of 1/((8 + 5โ2))
Simplify (7โ3)/(โ10 + โ3)โ(2โ5)/(โ6 + โ5)โ(3โ2)/(โ15 + 3โ2)
Multiple Choice Questions - Chapter 1 Class 9 Maths
Example 16
If a and b are rational numbers and (โ11 โ โ7)/(โ11 + โ7) = a โ bโ77, find the value of a and b
Example 17
Find the values of a and b if (7 + 3โ5)/(3 + โ5) โ (7 โ 3โ5)/(3 โ โ5) = a+โ5 b
Ex 1.4, 5 (i)
If x = 1/(2 โ โ3), find the value of x^3 โ 2x^2 โ 7x + 5
If a = 5 + 2โ6 and b = 1/a, then what will be the value of a^2+b^2 ?
