Rational Numbers

The bus left at 8 o’clock in the morning. We fifteen friends have taken seats in the bus. But after some time the bus becomes crowded. Tamal shall try to write the room of the equation on a card.

Question 1. Let’s assume x more passengers other than us have boarded the bus.

Solution:

Given

Let’s assume x more passengers other than us have boarded the bus.

If now there are 32 passengers, then we get, x + 15 = 32 ………..(1)

or, x = 32 – 15

∴  x=17

∴ 17 more passengers have boarded the bus.

Tamal wrote on a piece of paper: The root of equation no. (1) is a natural number.

If there were 15 more passengers,

i.e., X + 15 = 15 ………….(2) then we get X = 0

∴  In that case the root of equation (2) is Natural Number (Natural Number / Whole number)

But Ayesha wrote by mistake X + 35 = 32.

X + 35 = 32……….(3) Let’s see what root w*e get solving the equation

X + 35 = 32

x = -3 The root of the equation (3) is – 3.

Tamal wrote the root of the equation (3) is [integer] [Integer / whole number)

Nasir also writes by mistake 2x + 15 = 32

Question 2. Let’s solve the equation 3x + 40 = 32 and find out the root.

Solution:

Given

3x + 40 = 32

or, 3x = 32 – 40

or, 3x = -8

∴ x = \(\frac{-8}{3}\)

Let’s solve the equations below :

(1) 5x = 30

Solution:

Given

5x = 30

or, x = \(\frac{30}{5}\)

or, x= 6

2. 2x + \(\frac{x-1}{2}\) = 5

Solution:

Given

2x + \(\frac{x-1}{2}\) = 5

or, \(\frac{4 x+x-1}{2}\) = 5

or, 5x-1 = 10

or, 5x = 10+1=11

or, x= \(\frac{11}{5}=2 \frac{1}{5}\)

3. \(\frac{x}{5}+\frac{2}{7}=\frac{x}{10}\)

Solution:

Given

\(\frac{x}{5}+\frac{2}{7}=\frac{x}{10}\)

= \(\frac{x}{5}-\frac{x}{10}=-\frac{2}{7}\)

= \(\frac{2 x-x}{10}=-\frac{2}{7}\)

= \(\frac{x}{10}=\frac{2}{7}\)

= \(x=-\frac{2}{7} \times 10\)

= \(x=-\frac{20}{7}=-2 \frac{6}{7}\)

4. \(\frac{x}{4}+\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution:

Given

\(\frac{x}{4}+\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2}\)

or, \(\frac{x}{4}=\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{2}\)

or, \(\frac{x}{4}=0\)

or, x = 0

We see the root of each equation is a Rational Number.

Question 3. But let’s see which number I get if I subtract two rational numbers.

Solution:

It is seen by subtracting two rational numbers I got a Rational number.

⇒ \(\left(-\frac{2}{3}\right)-\left(\frac{3}{8}\right)=-\frac{2}{3}-\frac{3}{8}=\frac{-16-9}{24}=-\frac{25}{24}\)

Question 4. Let’s see which number I get by multiplying two rational numbers.

Solution:

⇒ \(\left(-\frac{2}{3}\right) \times\left(\frac{3}{8}\right)=-\frac{1}{4}\)

It is seen by multiplying two rational numbers I got a Rational number.

“Class 8 WBBSE Maths Chapter 3 solutions, Rational Numbers study material”

Question 5. Let’s see which number I get by dividing two rational numbers.

Solution:

⇒ \(\left(-\frac{2}{3}\right) \div\left(\frac{3}{8}\right)=-\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{8}{3}=-\frac{16}{9}\)

It is seen by dividing these two rational numbers I got a number I got a Rational number. But let’s see what I get from \(\left(-\frac{2}{3}\right) \div 0\)

If a and b are two rational numbers then (a+b) is a rational number, (a – b) or (b – a) are Rational numbers, (a x b)= Rational number. But a ÷ b is always a rational number if b ≠ 0.

Let’s see what I get by adding O with any rational numbers.

= \(0+\frac{3}{7}=\frac{3}{7}\) and \(\frac{3}{7}+0=\frac{3}{7}\).

Let’s see what I shall get by multiplying and rational number by 1,

= \(1 \times \frac{3}{7}=\frac{3}{7}\) and \(\frac{3}{7} \times 1=\frac{3}{7}\)

Sima got by adding with zero two rational numbers and multiplying two rational numbers by,

0+ any rational = + 0 = Thai rational number That rational number

1x any rational number = That rational number x 1 = That rational number i.e., 0 + a = a + 0 = a and 1 x a = a 1 = a [ There a is any rational number]

1multiply any rational numbers with 0 and see what I shall find.

“WBBSE Class 8 Maths Chapter 3, Rational Numbers solved examples”

= \(0 \times \frac{14}{19}=0, \quad \frac{14}{19} \times 0=0\)

∴ Dipu multiplied any two rational numbers with 0.

0 x any rational number = any rational number 0 = 0

[ Take any rational number and do myself ]

0 x a = a x 0 = 0 (Here a is any rational number).

Write understanding below the chart and see where commutative law observes.

Question 6. I take any three rational numbers and add:

Solution:

= \(-\frac{1}{5}+\left(\frac{2}{5}+\frac{5}{7}\right)=\frac{32}{35}\)

and \(\left(-\frac{1}{5}+\frac{2}{5}\right)+\frac{5}{7}=\frac{32}{35}\)

∴ \(-\frac{1}{5}+\left(\frac{2}{5}+\frac{5}{7}\right) \left(-\frac{1}{5}+\frac{2}{5}\right)+\frac{5}{7}\)

∴ \(-\frac{1}{5}, \frac{2}{5}\) and \(\frac{5}{7}\)

Question 7. Subtract with any three rational numbers and see what we get.

Solution:

⇒ \(\frac{3}{5}-\left(\frac{2}{7}-\frac{1}{4}\right)=\frac{79}{140}\)

⇒ \(\left(\frac{3}{5}-\frac{2}{7}\right)-\frac{1}{4}=\frac{9}{140}\)

∴ \(\frac{3}{5}-\left(\frac{2}{7}-\frac{1}{4}\right)\) ≠ \(\left(\frac{3}{5}-\frac{2}{7}\right)-\frac{1}{4}\)

∴The substance of the rational numbers does not obey associative law.

Generally a-(b-c) ≠ (a-b)-c [where a,b,c are three rational numbers]

Question 8. I multiply with any three rational numbers and see of the multiplication of the rational numbers obeys Associative law.

Solution:

⇒ \(\frac{5}{8} \times\left(\frac{3}{5} \times \frac{7}{9}\right)=\frac{7}{24}\) and \(\left(\frac{5}{8} \times \frac{3}{5}\right) \times \frac{7}{9}=\frac{7}{24}\)

⇒ \(\frac{5}{8} \times\left(\frac{3}{5} \times \frac{7}{9}\right)\) ≠ \(\) [=/≠write]

⇒ \(\frac{5}{8}, \frac{3}{5}, \frac{7}{9}\) obeys associative law.

Question 9. Taking any three rational numbers Shuvam examined where the multiplication of the rational numbers obeys associative law.

Solution:

We get, a×(b×c) = (a×b)×c [Where a,b,c are rational numbers ]

⇒  \(\frac{1}{2}, \frac{2}{3}\) and \(\frac{5}{6}\) are three rational numbers.

⇒ \(\frac{1}{2} \times\left(\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{5}{6}\right)=\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{5}{9}=\frac{5}{18}\)

Again, \(\left(\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{2}{3}\right) \times \frac{5}{6}=\frac{1}{3} \times \frac{5}{6}=\frac{5}{18}\)

We see that multiplication of three rational numbers obeys associative law.

“WBBSE Class 8 Rational Numbers solutions, Maths Chapter 3”

Question 10. I decide any three rational numbers and see whether the division of the rational numbers obeys the commutative law of addition.

Solution:

⇒ \(\frac{11}{13} \div\left(\frac{5}{6} \div \frac{3}{8}\right)=\frac{11}{13} \div\left(\frac{5}{6} \times \frac{8}{3}\right)=\frac{11}{13} \div \frac{20}{9}=\frac{11}{13} \times \frac{9}{20}=\frac{99}{260}\)

But \(\left(\frac{11}{13} \div \frac{5}{6}\right) \div \frac{3}{8}=\left(\frac{11}{13} \times \frac{6}{5}\right) \div \frac{3}{8}=\frac{66}{65} \times \frac{8}{3}=\frac{176}{65}\)

∴ \(\frac{11}{13} \div\left(\frac{5}{6} \div \frac{3}{8}\right) \neq\left(\frac{11}{13} \div \frac{5}{6}\right) \div \frac{3}{8}\)

Division of rational numbers does not obey associative law.

Let’s see which number will be added to the rational number to make it zero.

⇒ \(\frac{3}{7}+\frac{-3}{7}=0 \text { and } \frac{3}{7}=0 \frac{-3}{7}\)

Joseph drew another card \(-\frac{2}{9}\)

⇒ \(\frac{-2}{9}+\left\{-\left(\frac{-2}{9}\right)\right\}=0\)

Adding ⇒ \(\frac{-2}{9}\) with \(-\left(\frac{-2}{9}\right)\) we get 0

⇒ \(\frac{2}{9}+\left(\frac{-2}{9}\right)=0\)

Question 12. \(\frac{9}{13}\)

Solution:

Given

\(\frac{9}{13}\)

⇒ \(\frac{9}{13} \times \frac{13}{9}=1 \text { or } \frac{13}{9} \times \frac{9}{13}=1\)

i.e., if \(\frac{9}{13}\) is multiplied by the reciprocal of \(\frac{9}{13}\) or \(\frac{13}{9}\), we get 1

Appu drew 1 \(-\frac{11}{7}\) , \(\left(-\frac{11}{7}\right)\) lets write by which rational numbers

\(\left(-\frac{11}{7}\right) \times-\frac{7}{11}\) = 1 and \(-\frac{7}{11}\) × \(-\frac{11}{7}\)= 1

∴ \(a \times \frac{1}{a}\) = 1  \(\frac{1}{a} \times a\)[where a is a rational number and a≠0]

But Rana picked up → 5/7 , 7/8 , or 11/12

He wrote \(\frac{5}{2} \times\left(\frac{7}{8}+\frac{11}{12}\right)=\frac{5}{2} \times\left(\frac{21+22}{24}\right)\)

⇒ \(\frac{5}{2} \times \frac{43}{24}=\frac{215}{48}\)

But \(\frac{5}{2} \times \frac{7}{8}+\frac{5}{2} \times \frac{11}{12}=\frac{35}{16}+\frac{55}{24}=\frac{215}{48}\)

It is seen \(\frac{5}{2} \times\left(\frac{7}{8}+\frac{11}{12}\right)\) = \(\frac{5}{2} \times \frac{7}{8}+\frac{5}{2} \times \frac{11}{12}\) [write =/≠]

6. Let’s multiply \(\frac{7}{9} \times\left(-\frac{11}{25}\right) \times\left(-\frac{89}{41}\right) \times\left(\frac{5}{121}\right)\) using commutative law and associative law.

Solution:

Given

\(\frac{7}{9} \times\left(-\frac{11}{25}\right) \times\left(-\frac{89}{41}\right) \times\left(\frac{5}{121}\right)\)

Using commutative law,

⇒ \(\left(-\frac{89}{41}\right) \times\left(\frac{5}{121}\right) \times \frac{7}{9} \times\left(-\frac{11}{25}\right)\)

⇒ \(\frac{-89}{41} \times \frac{5}{121} \times \frac{7}{9} \times \frac{-11}{25}\)

⇒ \(\frac{89}{41} \times \frac{5}{121} \times \frac{7}{9} \times \frac{11}{25}\)

⇒ \(\frac{623}{20295}\)

Using associative law,

⇒ \(\frac{7}{9}\left\{\left(\frac{-11}{25}\right) \times\left(\frac{-89}{41}\right) \times\left(\frac{5}{121}\right)\right\}\)

⇒ \(\frac{7}{9}\left(\frac{11}{25} \times \frac{89}{41} \times \frac{5}{121}\right)\)

⇒ \(\frac{7}{9} \times \frac{89}{2255}=\frac{623}{20295}\)

Now by dividing the distance between 0 to 1 into 5 equal parts, let put \(\frac{1}{5}\) and \(\frac{2}{5}\) at the right extremities of the first part and the second part respectively.

Dividing the distance between 0 to 1 into 5 equal parts, if I make same distance, I shall get → \(0, \frac{1}{5}, \frac{2}{5} \frac{3}{5}, \frac{4}{5} \frac{5}{5}=1\)

Again dividing the distance between 1 to 2 into 5 equal parts, I shall get → \(\frac{6}{5}, \frac{7}{5}, \frac{8}{5}, \frac{9}{5}, \frac{10}{5}=2\)

Dividing the distance between 1 into 5 equal parts, we get \(0,-\frac{1}{5},-\frac{2}{5},-\frac{3}{5},-\frac{4}{5},-\frac{5}{5}=-1\)

∴ Again dividing the distance between -2 to -1 into 5 equal parts, we get \(\frac{6}{5},-\frac{7}{5},-\frac{8}{5},-\frac{9}{5}, \frac{10}{5}=-2\)

Between and \(\frac{2}{5}\) and \(\frac{4}{5}\) let’s examine is there a rational number?

\(\frac{3}{5} \frac{2}{5}=\frac{4}{10}\) and \(\frac{4}{5}=\frac{8}{10}\)

It is seen that in between \(\frac{4}{10}\) and \(\frac{8}{10}\) we can write the rational number \(\frac{5}{10}, \frac{6}{10}, \frac{7}{10}\)

Again, \(\frac{2}{5}=\frac{4}{10}=\frac{40}{100}\) and \(\frac{4}{5}=\frac{8}{10}=\frac{80}{100}\)

∴ In between \(\frac{40}{100}\) and \(\frac{80}{100}\) we can write the rational number \(\frac{41}{100}, \frac{42}{100}, \ldots \ldots, \frac{79}{100}\)

∴ There are infinite rational numbers in between \(\frac{2}{5}\) and \(\frac{4}{5}\).

We get infinite (finite/infinite/rational numbers in between any two rational numbers.)

(a + b – c) of 3. It is a trinomial expression, but (2x⁴+5y³-10y²-8) is an algebraic expression having 4 terms. It is a tetranomial expression.

What do we say if there are many terms in such an algebraic expression?

The algebraic expression having one or more terms is called a Polynomial expression.

Put Rupa made different types of funny things. She separated all the rectangular cards. She attached these to a big cardboard. Sakil wrote the area, length or breadth of these rectangular coloured cards. See the pictures and try to write the length, breadth or area of these rectangular cards of different colours.

Let’s make a frequency table by the raw data using tally marks and make a bar diagram.

Solution: Frequency table

Bar diagram:

Ayan made a list of the hobbies of 30 students in our class:

Meher made a bar diagram of the data above.

The data is expressed through the circular regional picture beside. We see the sectors of reading and drawing are the largest and same in size.

Again, the sector of reading story book and playing are the smallest and similar in size.

So one sector indicates one part of the data and the area of one sector along with the quantity of a part of the data is proportional.

During recess the part of the total students singing = \(\frac{7 \text { people }}{30 \text { people }}=\frac{7}{30}\)

During recess the part of total students drawing picture = \(\frac{7}{30}\)

But during recess the part of the total students reading story books = \(\frac{5}{30}=\frac{1}{6}\)

But during recess the part of the total students playing drama = \(\frac{1}{6}\)

And during recess the part of the students dancing = \(\frac{1}{5}\)

So, one sector of singing and drawing pictures fill up the \(\frac{14}{30}\) part of the total circular region.

“WBBSE Class 8 Maths Chapter 2, Pie Chart solved examples”

During recess, the sector of dancing fills up the \(\frac{1}{5}\) part of the total circular region.

Question 5. There is a shop of Madhubabu in our locality. I made a list of various types of things that were being sold in his shop for a particular day.

Solution:

Given

There is a shop of Madhubabu in our locality. I made a list of various types of things which were being sold in his shop for a particular day.

Now I try to make a pie-chart based on the above information.

Hints: First convert into fractions.

Total number of things sold that day = Rs. (320 +100+160+140)= Rs. 720

∴ Common bread sold = \(\frac{320}{720}\) = \(\frac{4}{9}\)

In the circular region of my pie chart, the central angle of the sector selling Common bread = 360° x \(\frac{4}{9}\) = 4 x 40° = 160°.

“WBBSE Class 8 Maths Chapter 2, Pie Chart important questions”

Algebraic Expression

In our village Asadpur, the school building will be repaired. This year the ex-students have decided to take over this duty. There are two rooms of different shapes in this school building. Tathagatha and I calculated the expenditure of repairing the room of class-l.

Question 1. After taking measurements of the room of class-l, it has been found that its length, breadth and height are 5 m, 4 m and 3 m respectively. Let us calculate how much money will be required to cement the floor at the rate of Rs. 55 per square metre.

Solution:

Given

After taking measurements of the room of class-l, it has been found that its length, breadth and height are 5 m, 4 m and 3 m respectively.

The area of the floor of that room (5 x 4) square metres = 20 square metres.

∴ The total cost for cementing the floor of that room will be

Rs. (20 x 55)

= Rs 1100

Rs 1100 will be required to cement the floor at the rate of Rs. 55 per square metre

Question 2. There is a door of dimension of 2 m x 1.4 m and there are 2 windows of the dimension of 1.3 m x 1.2 m in that room. Let’s find out how much it will cost to colour the 2 windows and 1 door at Rs. 42/ sq.m.

Solution:

Given

There is a door of dimension of 2 m x 1.4 m and there are 2 windows of the dimension of 1.3 m x 1.2 m in that room.

The area of the door = 2 m. x 1.4 m = 2.8 sq.m.

The area of a window the room = 1.3 m x 1.2m = 1.56

∴ The area of two windows = 2  1.56 sq.m = 3.12 sq.m.

∴ The total area of 1 door and 2 windows is = (2.8 + 3.12) sq.m.. = 5.92 sq.m.

“WBBSE Class 8 Maths Chapter 1 solutions, Algebraic Expression”

The total expenditure to colour the doors and windows at Rs. 42 sq.m, will be

= Rs. 5.92 × 42

= Rs.248.64

Rs.248.64 it will cost to colour the 2 windows and 1 door at Rs. 42/ sq.m

Question 3. Now let’s calculate the total expenditure if I whitewash four walls and the roof of this room at Rs. 6 sq.m.

Solution:

Including the door and windows, the area of 4 walls and roof is

= 2 x length x height + 2 x breadth x height + length x breadth

= (2x5x3 + 2x4x3 + 5 x 4) sq.m.

= (30 + 24 + 20) sq.m..

= 74 sq.m.

∴ The total area of 4 walls and roof without door and windows is

=  74  sq.m. 5.92 sq.m.

= 68.08 sq.m.

Class 8 General Science	Class 8 Maths

The total expenditure to whitewash the four walls and the roof is

= Rs.  68.06 × 6 =Rs.  404.4

=Total expenditure = Rs. 404.48 +Rs. 248.64 + Rs.1000

= Rs. 1653.12

Total expenditure = Rs. 1653.12

Question 4. There is a rectangular shaped playground at the back of our school. The length of this playground is 40 meter and the breadth is 20 meter. A road having 3 meter width is there all around inside the playground. Let’s work out how much money will be required to construct the road at Rs. 95/sq.m.

Solution:

Given

There is a rectangular shaped playground at the back of our school. The length of this playground is 40 meter and the breadth is 20 meter. A road having 3 meter width is there all around inside the playground.

The area of the rectangular playground including the road is (40 x 20) sq.m. =  800 sq.m.

The length of the rectangular playground excluding the road is

= 40 metre -2 x 3 metre = (40 – 6) metre

= 34 metre

The breadth of the rectangular playground excluding the road is

= 20 metre -2 × 3 metre = (20 – 6) metre

= 14 meter

∴ The area of the rectangular playground excluding the road is

= 34 sq.m, x 14 sq.m.

= 476 sq.m.

∴ The area of the road is = 800 sq.m.-476 sq.m. = 324 sq.m.

∴ Total amount required to construct this road at rate of Rs. 95 per sq.m, is

= Rs.  324 × 95 = Rs. 30780

Rs. 30780 will be required to construct the road at Rs. 95/sq.m.

“Class 8 WBBSE Maths Chapter 1 solutions, Algebraic Expression study material”

Question 5. If there is road all around outside the ground of width 3 meter, then let us work out the expenditure of constructing the road at the same rate above (let’s do).

Solution:

Given

If there is road all around outside the ground of width 3 meter,

The area of the playground = 40 x 20 sq.m. = 800 sq.m.

Length of the playground including the road = (40 + 2 x 3) m.

= (40 + 6) m. = 46 m.

Breadth of the playground including the road = (20 + 2 x 3 ) m.

= (20 + 6) m. = 26 m.

Area of the playground including the road = 46 x 26 sq.m. = 1196 sq.m.

Area of the road =(1196 – 800) sq.m. = 396 sq.m..

The cost of constructing this road at the rate of Rs. 95 per sq.m.

= Rs. 396 x 95 = Rs. 37,620

The cost of constructing this road at the rate of Rs. 95 per sq.m. = Rs. 37,620

Funny game with coloured paper

Today some of us decided that we will cut rectangular and square shaped coloured papers and paste some black paper on that coloured paper to from roads of same width.

Question 6. Let’s see how much region of the coloured paper is black.

Solution:

Tirthanker draws:

Area of the paper with black road = 12 x 8 sq. cm.

= 96 sq. cm.

Area of the paper without the black road = 32 sq. cm.

∴ Area of the black road = 64 sq. cm.

We stick the two black roads in the middle of the green paper and so we get four green rectangular regions with same area.

Titli draws:

∴ Length of a green rectangular region = \(\frac{28-4}{2}\) cm. = 12  cm.

Breadth of a green rectangular region = \(\frac{18-4}{2}\)cm. = [7] cm

∴ Area of a green rectangular region = 12 × 7 sq. cm

=84 sq. cm

Area of 4 green rectangular regions with black road = 4 × 84 sq. cm

= 336 sq. cm

“WBBSE Class 8 Maths Chapter 1, Algebraic Expression solved examples”

= Area of big rectangular region with black road 28  x 18 sq. cm

= 504 sq. cm.

∴ Area of black road drawn by Titli = 504 – 336= 168 sq. cm.

Question 7. Area of black road drawn by Sophia 42 sq. cm.

Solution:

It is seen that the black coloured road divides the square region into four equal squares.

Question 8. Let’s see the pictures drawn by David, Farukh and Mitali and then let’s find the area of the black coloured roads and note it down.

Solution:

Area of the black coloured road drawn by David :

Area of the rectangular area= (13 + 5) × (16 + 5) sq. cm.

= 18 x 21 sq. cm. = 378 sq. cm.

Area of the land = 2 (13 x 8). sq. cm.

= 2 x 104 sq. cm.

= 208 sq. cm

Area of the road = (378 – 208) sq. cm = 170

Area of the black coloured road draw by Farukh :

Area of the region including the road 20 × 20 sq. cm. = 400 sq. cm.

Area of the region excluding the road = (20-12) × (20 – 12) sq. cm.

= 8 x 8 = 64 sq. cm.

Area of the road = (400 – 64) sq. cm. = 336 sq. cm.

Area of the black coloured road draw by Mitali

Area of the region including the road = 24 x 24 sq. cm. = 576 sq. cm.

Area of a pink sub-division = \(\left(\frac{24-4}{2}\right) \times\left(\frac{24-4}{2}\right)\) sq. cm.

= 10 x 10 sq. cm.

= 100 sq.cm.

Area of 4 pink regions = 4 x 100 sq. cm.

= 400 sq. cm.

∴ Area of the road = (576 – 400) sq. cm.

= 176 sq. cm.

Algebraic Expression Exercise

Question 1. Let’s see the pictures in the graph paper below and let’s find the area of the figures and note it down.

Solution:

Question 2. The length and breadth of the rectangular courtyard of the house of Amina are 6 m. and 4.2 m. respectively. We put a mattress of measure 3.5 m x 2.5 m in the middle of the courtyard. Let’s find the area of the courtyard except the mattress and note it down.

Solution:

Given

The length and breadth of the rectangular courtyard of the house of Amina are 6 m. and 4.2 m. respectively. We put a mattress of measure 3.5 m x 2.5 m in the middle of the courtyard.

Area of the courtyard = 6 × 4.2 sq. m. = 25.2 sq.m.

Area of the matress = 3.5 m. × 2.5 m. = 8.75 sq.m.

Area of the courtyard without the mattress = (25.2 – 8.75) sq.m. = 16.45 sq. m.

The area of the courtyard except the mattress = 16.45 sq. m.

Question 3. There is a path of 3 m width all around outside the square-shaped park of Ajanta Housing Complex. The perimeter of the park including the path is 484 m. Let’s calculate the area of the parth.

Solution:

Given

There is a path of 3 m width all around outside the square-shaped park of Ajanta Housing Complex. The perimeter of the park including the path is 484 m.

Perimeter of the square shaped park including the road = 484 m.

Length of one side of the square shaped park including the road = 484 ÷ 4 m. = 121 m.

Area of the park including the road = (121 )² sq.m = 14641 sq.m.

= (121-6) m. = 115 m.

Area of the park including the road = (115)² sq.m = 13225 sq.m.

∴ Area of the road = (14641 – 13225) sq.m = 1416 sq.m.

The area of the parth= 1416 sq.m.

Question 4. The length and breadth of Mihir’s rectangular garden are 50 meters and 30 meters respectively. There is a road in the middle of the garden of width 4 meter parallel to the length of the garden. This road divides the garden into two rectangular regions of equal area. Let’s draw a picture and find the area of the road and note it down.

Solution:

Given

The length and breadth of Mihir’s rectangular garden are 50 meters and 30 meters respectively. There is a road in the middle of the garden of width 4 meter parallel to the length of the garden. This road divides the garden into two rectangular regions of equal area.

1. If the road of width 4 m passing through the middle of the garden is parallel to the breadth and this road divides the garden into two equal parts, then let’s draw a picture and find the area of the road
   and note it down.
2.  If there are 2 roads of width 4 m parallel to the length and breadth of Mihir’s garden passing through the middle and divide the garden into 4 equal parts, then let draw a picture to find the area of the road and note it down.

Solution: Length of the rectangular garden including road = 50 m.

Breadth of the rectangular garden with road = 30 m.

Area of the rectangular garden with road = 50 × 30 sq.m =1500 sq.m

Breadth of the garden without the road = (30 – 4) m. = 26 m.

Area of the garden without the road = 50 × 26 sq.m= 1300 sq.m

Area of the road = (1500 – 1300)sq.m = 200 sq.m

Breadth of the garden without the road = (50 – 4) m. = 46 m.

Area of the garden without the road = 46 x 30 sq.m = 1380 sq.m

Area of the road = (1500 – 1380) sq.m = 120 sq.m

Area of the garden including the road = 50 x 30 sq.m = 1500 sq.m

Length of each part of the garden =  \(\frac{50-4}{2}\)m. = 23 m.

Breadth of each part of the garden = \(\frac{30-4}{2}\)m. = 13 m.

Area of each part of the garden = 23 x 13 sq.m – 299 m.

Area of all 4 parts of the garden without the road = 4 x 299 sq.m = 1196 sq.m

Area of the road = (1500 – 1196) sq.m = 304 sq.m

Papia’s family has built their house on that land leaving a 4 meter width gap on all sides. Let’s find the area of the region in which they have built their house.

Solution : 

Given

There is a rectangular field beside our house owned by Papia’s family. The length and breadth of this land are 48 meter and 26 meter respectively. Papia’s family has built their house on that land leaving a 4 meter width gap on all sides.

Area of the rectangular field = 48 x 26 sq.m = 1248 sq. m.

Length of the house = (48 – 2 x 4) m. = 40 m.

Breadth of the house = (26 – 2 x 4) m. = 18 m.

Area of the house = 40 x 18 sq.m = 720 sq.m

Papia will make her home at a field of measure 720 sq. m.

Area of Uma’s card =5x – 7m × \(\frac{x}{5}+2\) m

= \(x^2+10 x-\frac{7 x}{5} 14\) sq.m

However, area of Samir’s card is (7a2b – 35ab2 + 14abc) sq.m and breadth is 7ab m.

∴ Length of Samir’s card

= (7a²b – 35ab² + 14abc) sq. m. ÷ 7ab m.

= \(\left(\frac{{ }^a 7 a^2 b}{7 a b}-\frac{{ }^{5 b} 35 a b^2}{7 a b}+\frac{{ }^{2 c} 14 a b c}{7 a b}\right) m .\)

= (a – 5b + 2c) m.

Area of Subir’s card is (6x⁴y⁴ — 12x²y² + 30x²y⁴) sq. m. and length is 6x²y² metre.

Breadth of the card = 6x⁴y⁴ – 12x²y² + 30x²y⁴ sq. m. ÷ 6x²y²m.

= \(\frac{6 x^4 y^2-12 x^2 y^2+30 x^2 y^4}{6 x^2 y^2}\)

= \(\frac{6 x^4 y^2}{6 x^2 y^2}-\frac{12 x^2 y^2}{6 x^2 y^2}+\frac{30 x^2 y^4}{6 x^2 y^2}\)

= (x² – 2 + 5y²) m.

“Class 8 WBBSE Maths Chapter 1, Algebraic Expression easy explanation”

Let’s find the length of the card where the area of the card is (9p²-4q²) sq.m and breadth of the card is (3p-2q) m.

Solution : Length = Area ÷ Breadth = \(\frac{9 p^2-4 q^2}{3 p-2 q}\)

Let’s express 9p2 – 4q2 into product of two expressions, i.e., factorise it. ,

9p² – 4q² = (3p)² – (2q)²

= (3p + 2q)(3q – 2q)

∴ Length = \(\frac{9 p^2-4 q^2}{3 p-2 q}\) metre

= \(\frac{(3 p+2 q)(3 p-2 q)}{(3 p-2 q)}\)

= (3p + 2q) metre

Solution:

1. Figure …………5n + 1
2. Figure …………..5n + 2
3. Figure …………….4n + 1

Question 2. Let’s write the perimeter of an equilateral triangle if length of each side is (4y + 2) cm.

Solution:

Perimeter of an equilateral triangle = 3 x side cm.

= 3(4y + 2) cm.

= 12y + 6 cm.

Perimeter of an equilateral triangle = 12y + 6 cm.

Question 3. Let’s write the area of the rectangular region whose length is (8x + 3y) cm and breadth is (8x – 3y) cm.

Solution:

Area of the rectangular region = (8x + 3y)cm × (8x – 3y) cm.

= (8x + 3y) (8x – 3y) sq. cm.

= (8x)² – (3y)² sq. cm.

= (64x² – 9y²) sq.cm.

Area of the rectangular region = (64x² – 9y²) sq.cm.

Question 4. Let’s write the area of the square region in terms of m where length is (3m – 4) metre. Let’s calculate the value of m when the perimeter of the square is 8 metre.

Solution:

Area of the square = (3m – 4) m. × (3m – 4) m.

= (3m – 4)² sq. m.

= (3m)² – 2.3m.4 + (4)² sq m.

= (9m²– 12m + 16) sq. m.

The perimeter of the square =4 x (3m – 4) m.

= 12m – 16 metre.

According to the problem,

12m -16 = 8

or, 12m = 8+16

or, 12m = 24

or, m= \(\frac{24}{2}\) = 2

If m is 2, perimeter will be 8 m

The value of m is 2 when the perimeter of the square is 8 metre

=\(\left(x^2+\frac{1}{x^2}\right)^2-2 \cdot x^2 \cdot \frac{1}{x^2}\)

=(14)²-2

=196-2

=194

2. If m+\(\frac{1}{m}\)=-5 then lets show that m²+\(\frac{1}{\mathrm{~m}^2}\)=23.

Solution: m+\(\frac{1}{m}\)=-5

= \(m^2+\frac{1}{m^2}\)

=\((m)^2+\left(\frac{1}{m}\right)^2\)

=\(\left(m+\frac{1}{m}\right)^2-2 \cdot m \cdot \frac{1}{m}\)

=(-5)²-2

=25-2

= 23

3. If p-\(\frac{1}{p}\)=m then let’s show that:

Solution:

1. p² +\(\frac{1}{p^2}\)= m² + 2; and,
2. \(\left(p+\frac{1}{p}\right)^2=m^2+4\)

p-\(\frac{1}{p}\) = m

1. \(p^2+\frac{1}{p^2}\)

Solution:

Given \(p^2+\frac{1}{p^2}\)

= \((p)^2+\left(\frac{1}{p}\right)^2\)

= \(\left(p+\frac{1}{p}\right)^2+2 \cdot p \cdot \frac{1}{p}\)

= (m)²+2

= m²+2

2. \(\left(p+\frac{1}{p}\right)^2\)

Solution:

Given \(\left(p+\frac{1}{p}\right)^2\)

= \(\left(p-\frac{1}{p}\right)^2+4 \cdot p \cdot \frac{1}{p}\)

= (m)2+4

= m2+4

3. If a + b = 5, a – b = 1 then let’s show that 8ab(a² + b²) = 624.

Solution :

= 8ab(a² + b²)

= 4ab. 2(a² + b²)

= {(a+b)²-(a-b)²}{(a+b)²+(a-b)²}

= {(5)²-(1)²}{(5)² + (1)²}

= (25-1) (25 + 1)

= (25)²-(1)²

= 625-1

= 624

8ab(a² + b²) = 624

4. If x – y = 3, xy = 28 then let’s find the value of (x² + y²).

Solution :

= x² + y²

= (x – y)² + 2xy

= (3)² + 2.28

= 9 + 56

= 65

(x² + y²) = 65

Question 14. Let’s express the expressions as the sum of two squares:

1. 2(a² + b²)
2. 50x²+18y²
3. a² + b² + c² + d²+ 2(ac -bd)

1. 2 (a² + b²)

Solution:

Given 2 (a² + b²)

= (a + b)² + (a – b)²

2. 50 x² + 18 y²

Solution:

Given 50 x² + 18 y²

= 2 (25x² + 9y²)

= 2 {(5x)² + (3y)²}

= (5x + 3y)² + (5x – 3y)²

3. a² + b² + c² + d² + (ac -bd)

Solution:

Given a² + b² + c² + d² + (ac -bd)

= a² + b² + c² + d² + 2ac – 2bd

= a² + 2ac + c² + b² – 2bd + d²

= (a + c)² + (b – d)²

Question 15.

Solution :

1. Let’s write for which value of t, x² – tx + \(\frac{1}{4}\) will be a whole square form.
2. Let’s write the expression which when added to a² + 4, gives a whole square.
3. If a and b are positive integers and a² – b² = 9 x 11, then let’s write the value of a & b.
4. Let’s write logically whether (x + y)² – (x – y)² = 4xy is an identity or an equation.
5. For each positive or negative value of x and y except zero, the value of (x² + y²) is always ( positive or negative ).

1.  x² – tx + \(\frac{1}{4}\)

= \((x)^2-t x+\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2\)

( ∴ 2ab = 2.x. \(\frac{1}{2}\) = x)

or, If =1 then x² – x + \(\frac{1}{4}=\left(x-\frac{1}{2}\right)^2\)

or, If = -1 then x² – (-1)x +\(\frac{1}{4}\)

= \(x^2+x+\frac{1}{4}\)

= \(\left(x+\frac{1}{2}\right)^2\)

The value of t being 1 or -1, x² – tx + \(\frac{1}{4}\) will be a whole square.

2. a² + 4

Solution :

Given a² + 4

= (a)² + (2)²

= (a + 2)² – 2.a.2.

= (a + 2)² – 4a

a² + 4 3 4a

3. a²– b2 = 9 x 11

Solution :

Given a²– b2 = 9 x 11

= (a + b) (a – b)

= (10 + 1) (10 -1)

or a = 10 and b = 1 then this equation will be established.

∴ a = 10, b= 1

4. (x + y)² – (x – y)² = 4xy

Solution :

Given (x + y)² – (x – y)² = 4xy

L.H.S = (x + y)²– (x -y)²

= x2 + 2xy + y² – (x² – 2xy + y²)

= x2 + 2xy + y² – (x² + 2xy + y²)

= 4xy

= R.H.S

∴ L.H.S = R.H.S.

∴ This is an identity.

5. Find for each positive or negative value x and y, except zero, the value of (x² + y²).

Algebraic Expression Geometric figures

Today we will play a game. We friends collect two blackboards. One of our friends will write several conditions and others will try to draw different geometrical figures according to the given conditions.

Seouli wrote, let’s draw a quadrilateral where length of four sides are 5 cm, 8 cm, 5 cm, and 8 cm respectively, i.e., opposite sides are equal in length.

Let’s see what kind of quadrilaterals are possible using two sticks of length 5 cm and two sticks of length 8 cm.’

Using sticks we see on fixed quadrilateral is possible. So to draw fixed quadrilateral another one condition is required. Now Seouli wrote, let’s draw a fixed quadrilateral whose opposite sides are equal in length and measurement of one angle is 90°. Hence we draw a Rectangle (rectangle square) figure where length is 8 cm and breadth is 5 cm.

Question 11. On another blackboard, Anita drew a rectangle ABCD of which the length is 8 cm and the breadth is 5 cm.
Solution :

each angle of the rectangle ABCD 90° and sum of 4 angles is  360° Measuring by scale, we see

AC = \(\sqrt{89}\)cm and BD = \(\sqrt{89}\)cm, so AC = BD [put=/≠] and AO = OC [put=/≠] BO = QD [put=/≠]. Let’s measure with a protractor, ∠AOD = 90° [put=/≠]

∴ Both the diagonals of rectangular figure ABCD bisect each other but not at right angle.

Question 12. Seoli wrote, I draw a quadrilateral PQRS, of which PQ=5cm QR=8 cm RS=5 cm, PS = 8 cm and ∠PQR = 45°; So PQRS is a parallelogram (parallelogram / rectangular region).

Solution :

Tuhin drew a parallelogram PQRS on another blackboard where PQ = 5 cm, QR = 8 cm, RS = 5 cm, PS = 8 cm, and ZPQR = 45° ∠PQR = 45°, ∠QRS =135°, ∠RSP = 45°, ∠SPQ = 135°

∴ The sum of measurement of 4 angles = 360°. Now measuring by scale we

PR =3.5 cm QS =5.5cm PO = OR [put=/≠] QO = OS [put=/≠]

∴ So both the diagonals bisect each other [ I also draw the diagram in exercise book and verify it measuring by myself].

Question 13. Now Tithi drew a square region of which each side is 4 cm.

Solution :

Each side of square LAND [4] cm measure of each angle 90 and LN and AD diagonals are equal [equal/unequal] LO = I ON [put =/≠ Put], AO = OD [ put=/≠] Measuring with the help of protractor we see ∠LOD = 90°

Both the diagonals of a square region bisect each other.

Question 14. Asif Iqbar drew a Rhombus LION of length of each side 5 cm and ∠LIO = 60°. Let’s measure with protractor.

Solution :

∠LIO = 60°, ∠ON = 120°, ∠ONL = 60°, ∠NLI = 120°, and ∠LXN = 90° The sum of measurement of four angles of the rhombus = 360°

Let’s see by measuring with scale, LX = XO [=/≠] and IX = XN [=/≠].

∴ Both the diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other perpendicularly. Let’s see what I found –

(Parallelogram):

1. Length of opposite sides are equal
2. Measurements of opposite angles are equal
3. Generally length of diagonals are: unequal
4. Diagonals bisect each other

Quadrilateral whose both pairs of opposite sides are parallel with each other.

(Rhombus):

1. Length of all sides are equal
2. Measurements of opposite angles are equal
3. Generally length of diagonals are unequal
4. Diagonals bisect each other at right angles

(Rectangle):

1. Generally length of all sides are equal
2. Generally, measurement of all angles are l 90° I
3. Length of diagonals are equal
4. Diagonals bisect each other

Parallelogram whose one angle is right angle

(Square):

1. Length of all sides are equal
2. Measurement of each angle is 90°
3. Length of diagonals are equal
4. Diagonals bisect each other

Parallelogram whose one angle is a right angle and one pair of adjacent sides are equal in length.

1. With two 45° – 90° sets square, I shall find square [rectangle/ square]
2. With two 30° – 60° – 90° sets square, I shall find [ [rectangle/ square]
3. With two measurement set square, I shall find parallelogram.

Solution:  6cm 4 cm.

∠PLA = ∠LAN = ∠ANP = ∠NPL = 90°

GOLD is a rhombus where GO = 7 cm, OL = 5.8 cm and GL = 5.8 cm.

Question 11.

1. ABCD is a rectangle. If AC = 5 cm, let’s write the length of BD.

Solution:

The diagonals of a rectangle are equal in length.

∴ ABCD is a rectangle whose length of one diagonal is AC = 5 cm.

∴ BD = 5 cm.

2. PQRS is a square two diagonals PR and QS intersect at O. PR = 5 cm Let’s write the length of QO.

Solution:

The diagonals of a square bisect each other at right angles. Length of one diagonal PR is 5 cm.

∴ Half of one diagonal OQ = \(\frac{5}{2}\) cm. = 2.5 cm.

3. Let’s write the measurement of ∠ABC in parallelogram ABCD where ∠ADC = 60°.

Solution:

Opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal.
