PrefaceThe Textbook Society, Karnataka, has been engaged in producing new textbooks according to the new syllabi which in turn are designed on NCF - 2005 since June 2010. Textbooks are prepared in 12 languages; seven of them serve as the media of instruction. From Standard 1 to 4 there is the EVS, mathematics and 5th to 10th there are three core sub-jects, namely, mathematics, science and social science.NCF - 2005 has a number of special features and they are: connecting knowledge to life activities. learning to shift from rote methods. enriching the curriculum beyond textbooks. learning experiences for the construction of knowledge. makingexaminationsflexibleandintegratingthemwithclassroom

experiences. caring concerns within the democratic policy of the country. making education relevant to the present and future needs. softening the subject boundaries integrated knowledge and

the joy of learning. the child is the constructor of knowledge. The new books are produced based on three fundamental ap-proaches namely, Constructive approach, Spiral approach and Inter-grated approach. The learner is encouraged to think, engage in activities, master skills and competencies. The materials presented in these books are integrated with values. The new books are not examination oriented in their nature. On the other hand they help the learner in the all round development of his/her personality, thus help him/her become a healthy member of a healthy society and a productive citizen of this great country, India. Mathematics is essential in the study of various subjects and in real life. NCF 2005 proposes moving away from complete calcula-tions, construction of a framework of concepts, relate mathematics to real life experiences and cooperative learning. Many students have a maths phobia and in order to help them overcome this phobia, jokes,

puzzles, riddles, stories and games have been included in textbooks. Each concept is intoduced through an activity or an interesting story at the primary level. The contributions of great Indian mathematicians are mentioned at appropriate places. We live in an age of Science and Technology. During the past fivedecadesmanhasachievedgreatthingsandrealizedhisdreamsand reached pinnacle of glory. He has produced everything to make life comfortable. In the same way he has given himself to pleasures and reached the stage in which he seems to have forgotten basic sci-ences. We hope that at least a good number of young learners take to science in higher studies and become leading scientists and contrib-ute their share to the existing stock of knowledge in order to make life prosperous. Ample opportunity has been given to learners to think, read, discuss and learn on their own with very little help from teach-ers. Learning is expected to be activity centered with the learners doing experiments, assignments and projects. 6th standard Social Science Textbook has been prepared based on the prescribed syllabus. And all the features of NCF 2005 and KCF 2007 have been included in the Text Book. This new Text Book has given importance to enhance the creativity of students by including ac-tivities. Many projects are included to help students to gain knowledge. This Text Book has been written in such a way that students need not memorise historical dates and other information. The Textbook Society expresses grateful thanks to the Chairper-sons, Writers, Scrutinisers, Artists, Staff of DIETs and CTEs and the Members of the Editorial Board and Printers in helping the Textbook Society in producing these textbooks.

Chairperson's LetterDear All,NCF 2005 intends that the aim of learning Mathematics to be of higher value rather than

mere learning algorithms and this is stated as learning of Mathematics is 'Mathemetisation. To achieve this objective our educational system, that is administration, class, school, society and persons in these agencies has to provide opportunities to the child to gain excellence experiences and fecilitate to construct knowledge himself.

The logical thinking adopted to solve a problem is to be of higher significance rather than knowing the solution to the problem. This develops rational and logical thinking among learners and enables them to explore their own method or approach of finding the solution and keeps them to be active participants. To make it possible, teachers have to become friendly facilitators to provide learning opportunities to the learners; as well as encourage pupils to learn with co - operation, in peer groups.

'Mathematics' is a challenge at 7th standard because it has to be nearer to the experiences and environment of learner and the learner has to comprehend the logical process and the abstract idea/concept.

Scope for exploration and creation is required in Mathematics instead of the rote problems and complicated calculations. Students have to be encouraged to solve the problems in different ways. To achieve this, previous learning is linked with present topics of learning Model activities, activities that can be done by the students and activities that have to be performed by the students are given to the possible extent Illustration, figures, laws/ principles and worked (model) problems are given to facilitate better comprehension of the subject. Additional information / issues are included here and there to enrich learning. To make learning easier and meaningful simple language along with wider scope and social situations are used. For reinforcement of each unit exercises, based on knowledge, understanding, skills and application- are given as far as possible. Our Committee is grateful to the chief co-ordinator, the managing director, the joint director and programme co-ordinator of karnataka textbooks society for providing an opportunity and responsibility of producing this textbook through which we have the pleasure to reach and serve larger educational community. We thank the editorial board and the scrutinizers for the valuable guidance and suggestions the members and DIETS involved in 'Try - out' for the feedback. All of this is attended to improve the text.

I am thankful to the members, translators, artists of this committee, technical assistants and other departmental, non departmental persons who have assisted me in this service .

It is tried to make this text to be free from doubts, confusions, ambiguity and printing mistakes. In spite of it, I request you kindly to communicate with me for any such things. Any suggestions for the improvement will be acknowledged whole heartedly. Please, share your opinion regarding the quality of the textbook with us and the department.

Yours truly,N. Kaleshwara Rao

About the Revision of Textbooks

Honourable Chief Minister Sri Siddaramaiah who is also the Finance Minister of Karnataka, in his response to the public opinion about the new textbooks from standard I to X, announced, in his 2014-15 budget speech of constituting an expert-committee, to look into the matter. He also spoke of the basic expectations there in, which the textbook experts should follow: “The textbooks should aim at inculcating social equality, moral values, development of personality, scientific temper, critical acumen, secularism and the sense of national commitment”, he said.

Later, for the revision of the textbooks from class I to X, the Department of Education constituted twenty seven committees and passed an order on 24-11-2014. The committees so constituted were subject and class-wise and were in accordance with the standards prescribed. Teachers who are experts in matters of subjects and syllabi were in the committees.

There were already many complaints, and analyses about the textbooks. So, a freehand was given in the order dated 24-11-2014 to the responsible committees to examine and review text and even to prepare new text and revise if necessary. Eventually, a new order was passed on 19-9-2015 which also give freedom even to re-write the textbooks if necessary. In the same order, it was said that the completely revised textbooks could be put to force from 2017-18 instead of 2016-17.

Many self inspired individuals and institutions, listing out the wrong information and mistakes there in the text, had sent them to the Education Minister and to the Textbook Society. They were rectified. Before rectification we had ex-

changed ideas by arranging debates. Discussions had taken place with Primary and Secondary Education Teachers’ As-sociations. Questionnaires were administered among teach-ers to pool up opinions. Separate meetings were held with teachers, subject inspectors and DIET Principals. Analytical opinions had been collected. To the subject experts of sci-ence, social science, mathematics and languages, textbooks were sent in advance and later meetings were held for dis-cussions. Women associations and science related organi-station were also invited for discussions. Thus, on the basis of all inputs received from various sources, the textbooks have been revised where ever necessary.

Another very important aspect has to be shared here. We constituted three expert committees. They were constituted to make suggestions after making a comparative study of the texts of science, mathematics and social science subjects of central schools (NCERT), along with state textbooks. Thus, the state text books have been enriched based on the com-parative analysis and suggestions made by the experts. The state textbooks have been guarded not to go lower in stan-dards than the textbooks of central school. Besides, these textbooks have been examined along side with the textbooks of Andhra Pradesh, Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Maharashtra states.

Anotherclarificationhastobegivenhere.Whateverwehave done in the committees is only revision, it is not the total preparation of the textbooks. Therefore, the structure of the already prepared textbooks have in no way been affected or distorted. They have only been revised in the background of gender equality, regional representation, national integrity, equality and social harmony. While doing so, the curriculum frames of both central and state have not been transgressed. Besides, the aspirations of the constitution are incorporated

carefully. Further, the reviews of the committees were once given to higher expert committees for examination and their opinions have been inculcated into the textbooks.

Finally, we express our grateful thanks to those who strived in all those 27 committees with complete dedication and also to those who served in higher committees. At the same time, wethankallthesupervisingofficersoftheTextbookSocietywho sincerely worked hard in forming the committees and managed to see the task reach its logical completion. We thank all the members of the staff who co-operated in this venture. Our thanks are also due to the subject experts and to the associations who gave valuable suggestions.

CHAPTER– 1

INTEGERS

After studying this chapter you : multiply positive integer by positive integer as well as

by negative integer, multiply negative integer by negative integer, compare integers and identify smaller, greater among

given integers, follow proper method in multiplication, as well as relate

multiplication and division of numbers, divide an integer by another integer, understand why an integer can not to be divisible by

zero, understand the properties of integers: commutative,

associative and distributive, with respect to fundamental operations.

Suhasini saw a rose plant having 5 roses. She plucked 3 roses. Find how many roses are left in the plant.

Solution:

Total number of roses in the plant = 5

Number of roses plucked = 3

Number of roses left in the plant = 5 – 3 = 2.

Positive integers, negative integers along with zero are termed as integers. We know how to add and subtract integers on the number line.Example 1 : Rita wanted to play a game. She jumped 3 steps to her right and then she decided to jump 5 steps to her left.How can you show her jumping on the number line ?

If we consider the first position of Rita as zero, then the jumps can be shown on the number line, where does she reach ?

0 1 2 3

-2 2-1 1-3 30

0

3 + (–5) = –2

Remember : Counting numbers/Natural numbers are positive

integers. Zero is not a natural number. Natural numbers and "0" together termed as "Whole

numbers". Integers include whole numbers as well as negative

integers.

Exercise 1.1

I. Simplify the following .

1) 8 + 5 2) 2 + (–7) 3) (–3) + (4) 4) (– 7) + (– 2)

Multiplication of integers. Multiplication of a positive integer by a positive integer:

If a sign is not attached to a number, it is considered to be positive.

What is multiplication ?

We know that multiplication is repeated addition. Let us observe this from the following example.Example 1:

Bharath bought 3 pencil boxes from a shop. If each box contains 6 pencils, find the total number of pencils Bharatha has

6 + 6 + 6 = 18 (addition)

How to mark this on a number line?

0 6 12 18

Look at the arrow marks shown on the number line. There are 3 arrow marks on the number line, each arrow covering ‘6’. The third arrow reaches at 18.

Therefore, 6 × 3 = 18. This is represented on the number line.Example 2 :

5 friends went to a shop. Each one bought 12 mangoes. How many mangoes did they buy altogether?

× =

Know this : Z is used to represent

Integers. Zahlen is the German word for Integers. Integers are also represented by ‘I’.

Multiplication of a positive integer by a negative integer :Nidhi was fond of Almonds. Her mother kept some almonds

in a container. Nidhi ate 2 almonds each day. Every day the number of almonds is reduced by 2. After three days the container was empty!

How many almonds were there in the container?Let us denote the reduced number

of almonds by a negative integer –2

–2, –2, –2. Now add these integers. (–2)+(–2)+(–2) = –6

∴ 3 × (–2) = –6

Nidhi ate 6 almonds in 3 days.

So, there were 6 almonds in the box.

Let us mark this on the number line.

-6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0-7

(–2) × 3 = –6Example 1 : Find 5 × (–4)

We can simply take "5 time of −4", like this:-20 -16 -12 -8 -4 0 4 8

1×-4=-4 2×-4=-8 3×-4=-12 4×-4=-16 5×-4=-20

Example 2 : Let us try this; 4 × (–5) = ?

-20 -15 -10 -5 0 5 10

4 × (–5) = –20

If we multiply a positive integer by a negative integer we get a negative integer.Example 3 : (+5) × (–6) =?

+5 × (–6) =–30

This means 5 times –6

5 × (–6)=(–6) + (–6) + (–6) + (–6) + (–6)= –30

I have neither positive sign, nor negative sign. I am free from sign

Have I any sign?

Ha ha ha

...No sign

Multiplication of a negative integer by a positive integer:What happens if we multiply a negative integer by a

positive integer?Look at this pattern , 5 × 4 = 20 4 × 4 = 16 = 20 – 4 3 × 4 = 12 = 16 – 4 2 × 4 = 8 = 12 – 4 1 × 4 = 4 = 8 – 4 0 × 4 = 0 = 4 – 4–1 × 4 = 0 – 4 = – 4–2 × 4 = –4 – 4 = –8–3 × 4 = –8 – 4 = –12–4 × 4 = –12 – 4 = –16–5 × 4 = –16 – 4 = –20

Thus we get (–5) × 4 = –20

Do you know which is the

largest negative integer?

yes, it is -1

When we multiply a negative integer and a positive integer, we multiply them as whole numbers and put a negative sign to the product. We get a negative integer.Example 1: (–6) × 7 =? Multiply the absolute values.

6 × 7 = 42

5 × 7 = 35 = 42 – 74 × 7 = 28 = 35 – 73 × 7 = 21 = 28 – 72 × 7 = 14 = 21 – 71 × 7 = 7 = 14 – 70 × 7 = 0 = 7 – 7 –1 × 7 = 0 –7 = –7

–2 × 7 = –7 – 7 = –14

–3 × 7 = –14 – 7 = –21

–4 × 7 = –21 – 7 = –28

–5 × 7 = –28 – 7 = –35

–6 × 7 = –35 –7 = –42 ∴ (–6) × 7 = –42

If we multiply two integers having unlike signs then, their product will be always negative.

Example 2 : (–8) × 2 = –16

Write in the pattern as shown above.Example 3:

A diver dives into the sea. He dives at a speed of 9m per minute. Find out the position of the diver in the water after 6 min if he maintains the same speed.

(The person who dives in the sea is called scuba diver)

If we consider the water level as zero (0), under water diver’s position can be taken as negative number.

Here 9 is negative number.

Therefore, in 6 minutes divers position will be = –9 × 6 = –54

The diver is 54 m below the water level or he will be at a distance of –54 metre.

Multiplication of an integer by '0'

Observe the following pattern

6 × 2 = 12 = 12 - 0

5 × 2 = 10 = 12 – 2

4 × 2 = 8 = 10 – 2

3 × 2 = 6 = 8 – 2

2 × 2 = 4 = 6 – 2

1 × 2 = 2 = 4 – 2

0 × 2 = 0 = 2 - 2

0 × 2 can be written as 2–2

∴ 0 × 2 = 0

When an integer is multiplied by zero we get zeroExample :

i) 5 × 0 = 0

ii) –10 × 0 = 0

iii) 0 × 0 = 0

Multiplication of a negative integer by a negative integer: Read this:

I eat.I do not eat.I fast.I do not fast.

Which integer is greater than any negative integer and less than any positive integer?

Hey it's zero my friend.

The first and the last sentences give the same meaning.And the second and third give the same meaning..If I say, ‘I do not disagree’ that means ‘I agree’.We can conclude that any sentence with double negative,

gives positive meaning.Consider x = 3 × 5

x + 0 = 3 × 5 + 0 Let y = 3 × (–5) and its additive inverse (–3) ×(–5)

x + y – y = 3 × 5 + 3 × (–5) – [3 × (–5)]

= 3 [5 + (–5)] – [3 × (–5)] (x + y is simplified)

= 3 × 0 – [3 × (–5)]

= 0 – [3 × (–5)]

– 3 × (–5)

∴ 3 × 5 = –3 × –5

15 = –3 × –5

By generalising this a × b = a × b + 0 = a × b + a (–b) – a (–b) = a ( b + –b) – a (–b) = a (0) – a (–b) = 0 –a (–b) ∴ ab = (–a) (–b) = –a × –b –a × –b = a × b

The product of two negative integers is a positive integer.Let us multiply the following numbers using a pattern. (–3) × (– 6) = ? Let us write this in the form of a pattern, The product of two negative integers is a positive integer.

We multiply the absolute values and then assign positive sign to the product.

– 3 × 6 = –18 – 3 × 5 = –15 = –18 – (– 3) – 3 × 4 = – 12 = –15 – (– 3)

(recall the additive inverse that you have studied in

6th Standard)– 3 × 3 = –9 =–12 – ( – 3)– 3 × 2 = – 6 = –9 – ( – 3) – 3 × 1 = – 3 =–6 – (– 3) – 3 × 0 = 0 =–3 – (– 3) - 3 × -1 = ?

-3 × -1 = 0 - (- 3) = 0 + 3 = 3 -3 × -2 = 3 - (- 3) = 3 + 3 = 6 -3 × -3 = 6 - (- 3) = 6 + 3 = 9 -3 × - 4 = 9 - (- 3) = 9 + 3 = 12 -3 × -5 = 12 –(-3) = 12 + 3 = 15 -3 × -6 = 15 –(-3) = 15 + 3 = 18

We know that any number multiplied by '0', the product is '0' only. -3 × 0 = 0 = -3 - (-3)

If two integers have like sign then, their product is always positive.

Example 1 : (–4) × (–3) = ?Multiply the absolute numbers. 4 × 3 = 12But the product of two negative integers is a positive

integer. Thus ( – 4) × ( – 3) = 12

Multiplication of more than two integers:Example 1: 3 × 5 × 6 = ?

3 × 5 × 6 = 15 × 6 = 90Example 2: 3 × 5 × (–6) =?

3 × 5 × (–6) = 15 × (–6) = –90Example 3: 2 × 3 × 5 × 6 = ?

2 × 3 × 5 × 6 = 6 × 30 = 180Example 4: 2 × 3 × (–5) × (–6) =?

2 × 3 × (–5) × (–6) = 6 × 30 = 180Example 5: (–2) × (–3) × 5 × (–6) = ?

(–2) × (–3) × 5 × (–6) = 6 × (–30) = –180Example 6: (–2) × (–3) × (–5) × (–6) = ?

(–2) × (–3) × (–5) × (–6) = +6 × + 30 = +180 = 180

Know this?Step 1 : Find the product of the numerical values of the given numbers.Step 2 : Count the number of negative integers in the given number.Step 3 : If the number of negative integers counted in the step 2 is even, the product is just the product from step 1, if the number of negative integers is odd, the product is the product from step 1 with a negative sign. Verbal problems:Example 1:

Nandan went to a fruit shop.

Do you know?One Dozen = twelve

He bought a dozen bananas. If the cost of each banana is ` 3, how much has he to pay ?

Solution: One dozen = 12

The cost of one banana = ` 3 To find the amount to pay, multiply 12 by 3 Total amount Nandan has to pay = 12 × 3 = 36.So, Nandan has to pay ` 36 to the shop keeper.

Example 2: A submarine is submerging from the surface at the rate of 15m/minute. At what depth is the submarine after 5 minutes?Solution: Note that moving downwards is negative.Change in position of submarine in one minute = –15 m∴The position of submarine after 5 minutes = –15 × 5 = –75 m

So, the submarine is at depth of 75 m from the surface after 5 minutes.

They saw a well and a bucket with a rope. They decided to fetch the water from that well. After drinking water their conversation was like this.Jack : Jill, What may be the depth of this well?Jill : Hmm. Hey, we will ask that uncle. What is the depth of this well uncle?Raju : It is approximately 35 feet from the ground

level dear kids.Jack : What may be the water level uncle?Raju : 28 feetJill : Thank you uncle. Hey Jack, let us assume that

ground level as zero.Jack : Yes, then 28 feet of water means, the water level

is 35–28 = 7 feet below the ground level.Jill : Let us denote it by –7. Jack : Since water is below the ground level, we can

denote the measure (depth) of the water as –28 feetJill : If a bucket fell into the well and reaches the bottom

in 4 min from the top of the water level what will be the speed of the bucket Jack ?

Jack : Good question Jill. Let us calculate. We have studied speed in Science.

Jill : Yes, speed = distance divided by time.Jack : So speed = 28 ÷ 4 = 7 feet per minJill : But we have considered the depth of the water as–28.Jack : And 4 × ? = –28

Jill : It is –7. Therefore –28 ÷ 4 = –7. The speed of the bucket is –7 feet per min.

Negative sign indicates the movement of the bucket downwards.

Jack : Enough Jill. Let us continue playing. (Both Jack and Jill went back to play).We know the relation between multiplication and division.Example : i) 6 × 2 = 12 = 2 × 6

So 12 ÷ 6 = 2 and 12 ÷ 2 = 6

ii) (– 4) × 5 = – 20 using method applied in (i) we can write (– 20) ÷ 5 = – 4 and (– 20) ÷ – 4 = 5.

Observations from the above table are

• Division involving two integers with the same signs always results in a positive integer.

• Division involving two numbers with different signs always results in a negative integer.

What happens if we divide an integer by zero?

Know thisS. Ramanujan, a great Indian Mathematician asked this question in the class, when he was a student.

Let us see this by an activity : Take 8 paper sheets of equal size.

that is, 8, 1 time = 8Divide 8 into 2 equal groups. 4 + 4 that is, 4, 2 times = 8Divide these each groups into 2 further equal groups. 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 that is, 2, 4 times = 8Again, divide these each groups into 2 further equal groups.

1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 that is, 1, 8 times = 8

Cut each of these 8 sheets into 2 pieces.

or .0 258 =32 0.25+0.25+………+0.25 (0.25,32 times) = 8

similarly .0 18 = 80 0.1+0.1+……….+0.1 (0.1,80 times) = 8

08= ? How many zeroes add up to 8?

That is no group of zeroes can be found to make eight. So

we cannot divide any integer by zero.(Note: Division of any number by zero is not defined)

IV. Patil purchased 8 packets of Dharwad peda. Each packet contains equal number of pedas. There were 320 pedas in total. Calculate the number of pedas in each packet.

Properties of integers.a) Commutative property:Addition: 2 + (– 5) = (–3) and (–5) + 2 = (–3).

For any two Integers a and b, if a+ b = b +a then, this property is called commutative property.

When we add integers, order doesn't matter, we get the same answer.

The Integers satisfy the commutative property under addition.Multiplication: 2 × −5 = −5 × 2 = –10

For any two Integers a and b, a × b = b × aOrder doesn't matter when we multiply integers, we get

the same answer.The Integers satisfy the commutative property under

multiplication.Subtraction: 18 – 15 = 3 and 15 – 18 = –3

18 – 15 ≠ 15 – 18When the order changes in subtraction then, the answer

also changes.Therefore the commutative property does not satisfy with

respect to subtraction of integers.Division: 12 ÷3 = 4 and 3 ÷12 = 12

341=

12 ÷3 ≠ 3 ÷12If dividend and divisor are interchanged then the quotient

also changes.Therefore the commutative property does not satisfy with

respect to division of Integers.

b) Associative PropertyAddition: (4 + −2) + −5 = 2 + –5 = –3.

4 + (−2 + −5) = 4 + –7 = –3.For any three integers a,b and c, (a+b)+c = a+(b+c) When we add three integers, it doesn't matter if we start

adding the first pair or the last pair; the answer is the same.So the Integers satisfy the associative property under

addition.Multiplication: (4 × −2) × −5 = –8 × –5 = 40

4 × (−2 × −5) = 4 × 10 = 40

For any three integers a, b, c; a × (b × c) = (a × b) × cWhen we multiply three integers, it doesn't matter if we

start multiplying the first pair or the last pair; the answer is the same.

The Integers satisfy the associative property under multiplication.

Subtraction: 6 – (3 – 7) = 6 – (–4) = 10

(6 – 3) – 7 = 3 – 7 = –4

6 – (3 – 7) ≠ (6 – 3) – 7It is clear that the Integers do not satisfy the associative

property under subtraction.Division: 8 ÷ (4 ÷ 2) = 4

(8 ÷ 4) ÷ 2 = 1 8 ÷ (4 ÷ 2) ≠(8 ÷ 4) ÷ 2It is clear that the Integers do not satisfy the associative

property under division.c) Additive Identity

(−5) + 0 = (−5)

0 + (−5) = (−5)

For any Integer a, a + 0 = a = 0 + a.

Observe the multiplication of the numbers inside the brackets by the number outside, given below.Example 1 : 3 × (2 + (−4))= (3 × 2) + (3 × (−4))Example 2 : [(–2) × (5 − 7)] = [(–2) × 5)] – [(–2) × (–7)]

For any three integers a, b and c a × (b + c) = (a × b) + (a × c)

a × (b – c) = (a × b) – (a × c)

2222

Solution: The cost of a trouser piece = ` 450

Therefore, the cost of 3 trouser pieces = 3 × 450

= ` 1350

The cost of a shirt piece = ` 320

Therefore, the cost of 3 shirt pieces = 3×320

= ` 960

Therefore, the total amount spent by Ramya in the textiles = 1350+960

total amount = ` 2310.

Example 2 : Sona had ` 1020 in her bank account. She deposited ` 200 on Monday, withdrew ` 500 on the same day, and deposited ` 580 on Wednesday. On Saturday, if she deposited ̀ 1000, find her balance in the account on Saturday.

Solution:

Here depositing the amount is considered as positive and withdrawing as negative.

The amount Sona had in the bank account = ` 1020

On Monday =1020 + 200 – 500 =1220 – 500 = ` 720

On Wednesday = 720 + 580 = ` 1300

On Saturday = 1300 + 1000 = ` 2300

Her balance in the account on Saturday is ` 2300.

2323

Solution:The profit by selling the pen = `12

Number of pens sold = 2500 Total profit by selling pen = 2500 × 12

= `30000

The loss by selling pencils = ` 8

Number of boxes of pencils sold = 4000

Total loss by selling pencils = 4000 × 8

= ` 32000

= 32000 – 30000

The total loss by selling pen and pencils = ` 2000Example 4: A quiz question paper contains 12 questions, each carrying 5 marks. Scheme of evaluation is +5 marks for correct answer and for incorrect answer (–2)

i) Bharathi attempts all the questions in which 9 are correct and 3 are incorrect.

ii) Manjula attempts only 10 questions in which 6 are correct and the remaining are incorrect.

Who is the winner in that quiz ?

Solution:

i) Marks given for one correct answer = 5

Marks for 9 correct answer = 5 × 9 = 45

Marks given for one incorrect answer = –2

Marks for 3 incorrect answer = (–2) × 3= (–6)

Therefore, Bharathi's total marks = 45 + (–6)= 39

ii) Marks for 6 correct answer = 5 × 6 = 30

Marks given for one incorrect answer = –2

Marks for 4 (10 – 6) incorrect answer = –2 × 4= –8

Therefore, Manjula's total marks = 30 + (–8) = 22

39 > 22, Bharathi scores more

∴ Bharathi is the winner.

CHAPTER - 3

RATIONAL NUMBERS

After studying this chapter you will: know the meaning, standard form and equivalents of

rational numbers, develop the skill of representing the rational numbers

on a number line, know the comparison of rational numbers, method of

finding the rational numbers between any two rational numbers,

know about operations on rational numbers (Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, Division) and also know the method of solving verbal problems related to them,

know the method of writing rational numbers in decimal form,

know the multiplication, division operation of decimal numbers. Also know the method of solving problems related to them,

understand the method of converting measuring units (about measurement of length and mass).

Meaning of Rational numbers:You already know about natural numbers (N),whole

numbers (W), integers (Z). N = { 1, 2, 3, 4...............}

W = { 0, 1, 2, 3..............}

Z = {...................-4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3........................}

In the beginning only natural numbers were there in use '0' (zero) is invented to represent the non existence of an object. In this way whole numbers came into existence. Integers set developed because negative numbers also occur, while finding the difference of two natural numbers.

(Example : 3-5=-2, 10-15=-5), a new set of numbers like - 5 is obtained, these are called negative integers. So, due to the necessity, the development of integers set came to existence.

Know this : A well defined, related objects, ideas, or numbers represents a set.

In the same way, while dividing one integer by another integer, a new set will be obtained. Example : ,5

3710- . These

numbers are not in integer set. So the set of rational numbers (Q) came into existence.

We have already learnt in the previous class about fractions. Fraction should be in the form p

q , where q ≠ o and p, q are natural numbers. But while subtracting fraction of the form

pq possibility of obtaining negative numbers is as

shown in the example. So, a new set of numbers is obtained in which -5

10 is neither fraction nor integer.

All the numbers of the form pq are rational numbers.

In pq , q ≠ o and p,q are integers.

Set of rational numbers is represented by a letter 'Q'.Q = {contains all the numbers of the form p

q , q ≠ 0 and p, q are intergers.}

Example : , , , , , , ...etc32453074

Representing (locating) rational numbers on a number Line :

Already, you know the method of representing whole numbers and integers on a number line:

On the number line, positive integers are on the right side and negative integers are on the left side of zero at equal distance.

Example 1 : Represent 53 on a number line.

To represent a rational number on the number line, divide the unit length on the number line into the number of parts as in the denominator of the rational number. Then mark the number of parts as in the numerator of the rational number.

0

0 +1-1

53+

Note that the distance between 0 and 1 is divided into 5 equal parts

Example 2 : Represent 25 on a number line

0

-3 -2 -1 0 +1 +2 +3

25

Here each unit is divided into 2 equal parts.

Example 3 : Represent 47- on a number line. Here each unit

in divided into 4 equal parts.-2 -1 0 +1 +2

Multiplicative inverse (Reciprocal) of rational numbers:

To obtain the reciprocal (multiplicative inverse) of a rational number, interchange the numbers in the numerator and denominator of that rational number.Example : 1) Multiplicative inverse of 4

3 is 34

2) Multiplicative inverse of 25 is 5

2

3) Multiplicative inverse of 103- is 3

10-

4) Multiplicative inverse of 4 is 41

5) Multiplicative inverse of a is a1 . (where a≠0)

Know this : No change in the sign while writing a multiplicative inverse. The product of a number and its reciprocal is always 1 (Identity element of multiplication is 1 i.e; a a

1 1# = ).

Think ! : '0' has no multiplicative inverse. Why?

You know already, the method of writing fractions in decimal form. In the same way, rational numbers can be written in decimal form.

Decimal numbers have two parts.In 61.35, 61 is the integer part and 35 is the decimal part. Method of reading 61.35 → Sixty one point three five. Similarly, method of reading 27.834 → Twenty seven point

eight three four.

Activity: Put some flash cards with different decimal numbers in a box. Ask each student to take one card from it and read the decimal number written in the proper way and to say integer part as well as decimal part in it and to cite the place value of each digit.

You know the method of writing fractions in decimal form.Example 1 :

In the same way, any rational number can be expressed in decimal form.

If we observe the above examples while writing a rational number in decimal form its digit may be stopped in one digit or more than one digit or may be repeating.

In examples a , b , c , d and e digits in the decimal part ends. Therefore these are called terminating decimals.

But in example f , g , h one or more than one digits in the decimal part are repeated. Even if the division continues the same digits will be recurring in decimals. We put dots to show that the digits are repeated in the decimal part. These are called, repeating decimals or recurring decimals.

Multiplication of decimal numbers :While multiplying decimal numbers find the product of the

numbers without taking decimal point for consideration, later put the decimal point in that product by leaving the digits to right side equal to the number of decimal places both in multiplicand and multiplier. Suppose, there is no sufficient number of digits in the product write zeros instead of that.Example 1 : a) 0.2 × 0.3 = 0.06

Length of a rectangle = 4.7 cm

Breadth of a rectangle = 3.5 cm

∴ Area of a rectangle = Length × Breadth = 4.7 × 3.5 = 16.45 sq. cm

Example 3 : Find the cost of 3.20 m of cloth, if the cost of 1 m of cloth is ` 98.75

Cost of 1 m of cloth = ` 98.75

∴ Cost of 3.20 m of cloth = 98.75 × 3.20

Cost of 3.20 m of cloth = ` 316

Example 4 : For mid - day meal 0.035 kg of dal is given to a child per day. What is the quantity of dal required for 38 children?

Know this :Historical Background : Around 300 BC, use of letters to denote unknowns

and forming expressions from them was quite common in India. Many great mathematicians – Aryabhatta (476 AD), Brahmagupta (598 AD), Mahavira (who lived around 850 AD) and Bhaskara II (1114 AD) contributed a lot to the study of algebra. They name dvariables as beeja, varna. The Indian name for algebra is Beejaganit.

Francois Viete, one of the great mathematicians of 16th century, was the first person who used letters to describe general arithmetic patterns.

Constant :Canthenumberofsidesofatrianglebemorethan3 ?

A constant is a number or other symbol that represents only one value

5, 9, 10, 3/4, –8, 0.01.......... are constants

Consider the following exampleA girl is now 10 years old. How old will she be1) 5 years later ? 2) 3 years ago ? 3) x years later ? 4) y years ago ?

Solution : The girl becomes 1 year older every year.1) 5 years later she will be (10 + 5) = 15 years old. 2) 3 years ago she was (10 – 3) = 7 years old. 3) 'x' years later she will be (10 + x) years old. 4) 'y' years ago she was (10 – y) years old. The expressions (10 + x), (10 – y) which contain variables

are called algebraic expressions.

CHAPTER- 5

PAIR OF ANGLESAfter studying this chapter you : understand the meaning of adjacent angles,

complementary angles, supplementary angles, and vertically opposite angles,

identify adjacent angles, complementary angles, supplementary angles, linear pair and vertically opposite angles,

solve the problems based on adjacent angles, complementary angles, supplementary angles, linear pair and vertically opposite angles.

In our day to day activities the knowledge of geometry is useful. The concepts of geometry such as line and angle are essential in many occupations like carpentry, engineering and tailoring. We come across situations which involve these concepts in our daily life. For example, corners formed by walls, slant position of ladder against the wall, inclination of hill. The angles formed in these examples can be determined.

In your previous class, you have learnt different lines and angles.

Now, identify the types of lines from the following :

Example : In a Letter ''T'' the marked angle is a right angle.Remember• A Point is the simplest of all the geometrical figures

Conceptually, a point has no size, but has ''position". A fine dot made by a sharp pencil on a plane sheet of paper is the physical representation of a point.

• A Line has no beginning point or end point. Imagine it is continuing indefinitely in both the directions. It is indicated by small arrows on both the ends.

• An angle is formed when two rays meet at a common point. The two rays of the angle are called the arms and the point where they meet is called the vertex.

The size of an angle depends upon the slope

The angles having the same measurement on a same plane are called equal ( Congruent ) angles.

CONGRUENT is derived from a Latin word, CONGRUENTEM which means "to agree" this word is used for 'equal'

Pair of angles :In geometry, certain pair of angles can have special

features. Our knowledge of acute, right, and obtuse angles helps to know the relation between pairs of angles.

Adjacent angles :

Look at the given figure, identify the angles, which are placed side by side.

• How many angles are formed in the figure ? Name them.• Identify the angles which are placed side by side in the

figure.• Write the name of the vertex and arms of the angles

placed side by side.Here, ''O'' is the vertex OB and OC are the arms of an angle

BOC . similarly OA and OB are the arms of the another angle AOB .

That is to say;i) They have one common vertex.

ii) They have one common arm separating the two arms.The pair of angles which have one common vertex and one common arm (side), which separates the angles are called adjacent angles.

In the given figure; i), ii) and iii) Find the sum of the measures of pairs of angles.

If the sum of two angles in the same plane is equal to 900 then they are called complementary angles.

That is by adjoining the angles we get a new angle which measure 900

In the above figure; ABC PQR 900+ = . Here, ABC is complementary to PQR and PQR is complementary to ABC .

Note : Whenever two angles are complementary, each angle is said to be complement to the other angle.

Think : If one of the angles is x0 then what would be the complement of this angle ?

Example 1 : Find the complementary angle of 350. Let the complementary angle for 350 is x0. We know that , 350 + x0 = 900

x0 = 900 - 350 x0 = 550 The complementary angle of 350 is 550

In the above figure; SPO MQR 1800+ =

Hence SPO is supplement to ,MQR and ,MQR is supplement to SPO .

Note : When two angles are supplementary, each angle is said to be the supplement of the other.

Think : If one of the angle is x0 then what would be the supplement of this angle ?

Example 1 : Find the supplementary angle for 130.50 .Let the supplementary angle for 130.50 be x0

We know that the sum of 2 angles in the above case is 1800 i.e. x0 + 130.50 = 1800

x0 = 1800 - 130.50

x0 = 49.50

Example 2 : One angle is supplementary to the other angle. The measure of the bigger angle is 900 more than the smaller angle. Find the measure of each angle.Let the smaller angle be x0 and the bigger angle is x0 + 900

i.e. We know that x0 + (x+90)0 = 1800

x0 + x0 + 900 = 1800

2x0 = 1800 - 900

x0 = 2900

x0 = 450

Therefore , The smaller angle is 450.The bigger angle is x0 + 900 = 450 + 900 =1350

Now put the traced copy on the original in such away that the line ↔AB drawn on the sheet coincide with the line ↔AB on the tracing paper.

Now fix a pin at the point of intersection of the line. Rotate the traced paper in such a way that line

↔AB on

traced copy lies on ↔BA opposite to the line ↔AB drawn on the original sheet of paper.

What do you observe from the above activity? We observe that,

1) COB drawn on original sheet covers completely the AOD drawn on the tracing sheet.

Which means COB coincides with AOD

2) AOD drawn on original sheet covers completely the COB drawn on the tracing sheet.

Which means AOD coincides with COB

3) BOD drawn on the tracing paper completely covers the AOC drawn on the original sheet.

Which means BOD coincides with AOC

4) AOC drawn on the tracing paper completely covers the BOD drawn on the white sheet.

Which means AOC coincides with BOD

Thus we can conclude that

COB AOD= and BOD AOC=

If two lines intersect each other, a pair of vertically opposite angles formed are equal.

Exercise 7.1

1) Take a rectangular sheet of paper. Cut a right angle triangle at one of its corner. Cut two angles other than the right angle.

shown in the adjacent figure. Cut this triangle without cutting the three angles. Verify the sum property of the triangle.

Think: In all these activities we found that the sum of the

interior angles of a triangle is 1800. Why is it not 1500 or 2000?

There are innumerable triangles of different shapes and sizes. Do all these triangles have their sum of the interior angles as 1800?

Is there any triangle in which sum of the interior angles is not equal to 1800?

To find the sum of the interior angles of triangle logically.

All the activities conducted indicate that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 1800. But there is no definiteness of the property which is applicable to all the triangles, Even after measuring the angles of thousands of triangles, one cannot arrive at the exactness of the angle sum of property. This is the limitation for the method in which examples are taken. This limitation can be over come by some other method.

To generalise the inference, there is a method which is known as logical method. To prove the mathematical statements, logical method is applied.

Let us apply logical proof to derive the sum

Aof the angles ,A B and C of OABC in figure is equal to 1800.

Is it possible to have a construction to bring all the three angles of the triangle ABC at any point (say A, B or C) on a straight line? Yes, let us draw a straight line RS passing through A.

i) ABC and BAR (represented by ∗)

ii) ACB and SAC (represented by )

But these alternate angles are not equal.

In the above triangle ABC, if there could be one pair of parallel lines, there would be alternate angles which are equal.

We already know that, if a pair of parallel lines are cut by a transversal, the alternate angles so formed are equal.

So, draw a line PQ through A parallel to BC

These are the interior angles of a triangle.

Hence, the sum of the interior angles in a triangle is 1800.

If a side of any triangle is

adjacent interior angle exterior angle

extended, an exterior angle and interior angles are formed. what is the sum of an exterior angle and an interior angle adjacent to it ?

These two angles are supplementary angles or linear pair angles.

Hence, the sum of an interior angle and an exterior angle is 1800.Interior Opposite angle

The angle opposite to the adjacent interior angle of a triangle is called interior opposite angle.

interior opposite angle 2

given. Find the measure of exterior angle.

∠P + ∠Q + ∠R = 1800 (Sum of the three angles of the angles in 1800)400 + 550 + ∠R = 1800 (Substituting the values of P and Q 950 + ∠R = 1800

∠R = 1800 - 950 = 850

∴ ∠PRQ = 850 Interior angle∠PRQ Interior angle and ∠PRS exterior angle are complimentary

∴ ∠PRQ + ∠PRS = 1800

850 + ∠PRS = 1800

∠PRS = 1800 - 850 = 950

(One interior angle + One adjacent exterior angle = 1800)In the above example exterior angle = 950. The sum of interior opposite angles = 400 + 550 = 950

Hence exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles.

Activity 2 : Take sticks of length 3cm, 5cm, 7cm, 9cm, 11cm, 13cm, 15cm, 17cm, 19cm, 21cm. Select any three sticks to form a triangle. Similarly take different length of sticks to form a triangle. Is it possible to construct a triangle with the sides as 3cm, 4cm and 6cm?

For example, take two sticks of length 5cm and 7cm. You need a third stick to complete the triangle. What should be the length of the third side?. That stick should be more than 7-5 = 2cm and less than 7 + 5 = 12cm.

Hence, to form a triangle the sum of the lengths of two sticks should be greater than the third stick.

From the above activity 1 and 2 we conclude that,

The sum of any two sides of a triangle should be greater than the third side.

Example 1 : Let us verify whether the sum of any two sides of a triangle greater than third side.

1) 3cm + 4cm > 6cm sum of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the third side

2) 4cm + 6cm > 3cm sum of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the third side

3) 6cm + 3cm > 4cm sum of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the third side

∴ A triangle can be drawn with these measures

Example 2 : Is it possible to construct a triangle with sides 3cm, 4cm, and 7cm? Verify?

Let us verify whether the sum of two sides of a triangle is greater than the third side.

Let us calculate the sum of the squares of two sides.

AB2 + BC2 = 32 + 42

= 9 + 16

= 25

Now find the square of AC, AC2 = 25

∴ AC2 = AB2 + BC2

52 = 32 + 42

25 = 9 + 16

= 25

From the above calculation we understand, in a right angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. This is universally accepted as Pythagoras therom.

CHAPTER- 8

SYMMETRY

After studying this chapter you : identify the symmetry and reflection symmetry,

define rotational symmetry of 2D figures,

identify rotational symmetry in the case of 900, 1200, 1800 rotation,

manipulate rotation through 900, 1800 to show symmetry,

operate the figures with both rotation and reflection symmetry,

identify the figures that have reflection and rotation symmetry.

Symmetry

You have studied symmetrical figures and reflection symmetry in your previous class

What are symmetrical figures ?

The figures with balanced proportion with reference to a line in terms of shape and size are called symmetrical figures. Many monuments, architectural constructions and gold ornaments are beautiful because of their symmetrical constructions. Many pictures of living and non- living things exhibit symmetry.

What speciality do you observe in the figure ?Do you see the same image on either side ?We have a special name for this, that is symmetry.We can see many things in nature which seem to be

symmetrical, but symmetry in mathematics is a particular concept.

Look at this picture. Is it beautiful to see ?What aspect of geometry makes it beautiful?It is the symmetry.

Try to identify symmetrical parts.

Activity 1: Spray ink on a sheet of paper, fold the paper equally to half of its size in lengthwise and press and crease. Open the sheet and look at the pattern formed. Mark the line of symmetry. Think why and how symmetry is caused here.

If a line divides the figure into two identical halves then the figure is said to be symmetrical figure and it has reflection symmetry. The line is the axis of symmetry.

Observe the following figures.

The dotted line represents line of symmetry. It is called the axis of symmetry.

Symmetry provides a balance and perfection to the objects.

Reflection symmetry and mirror reflection are related to each other. In reflection symmetry the half side is the mirror image of the other.

Activity 2: Draw the line/lines of symmetry for the follow-ing figures.

Recall: The line that divides

a figure into two symmetrical parts is called

the axis of symmetry.

Do you know ? Our national flag is one of the best examples for

symmetry.

RotationIn our daily life we see many objects which show rotational

movement.

Eg: i) Rotation of wings of a fan.

ii) Rotation of wheels of vehicles.

iii) Rotation of hands of a clock

You have seen the movement o f hands of a clock. This type of movement is called clockwise movement. The move-ment opposite to the movement of hands of a clock is called anti-clockwise movement.

In rotational movements, there are two types:

i) Clockwise movement ii) Anti-clockwise movement

Look at this clock. The two hands of the clock rotate around a fixed point in the middle of the clock. This fixed point is called centre of rotation.

Observe the figures. consider the wheel and observe a dot on the wheel.

In both the figures the shape and the size of the wheel do not change and the wheel turns around a fixed point. The dot implies the rotation.

One more example of rotation.

Step 1: Draw a rectangle OABC and let the point of rotation be O.

Step 2: Rotate the rectangle through 900 . Let OA take the place of OA'.

Step 3: Clearly the image of OABC will be OA'B'C' under rotation through 900.

Step 4: Rotate it further through 900 and the rectangle takes the position of OA''B''C''.

Step 5: Rotate it, further through 2700 from the original position and the rectangle takes the position of OA'''B'''C'''.

Step 6: A complete rotation through 3600 brings back the rectangle to its original position.

Rotational symmetry

Example 1: Can you rotate this ? as shown in the figure

If you rotate two times it takes the original shape. Isn’t it?

Note: Rotational symmetry is always considered with a relative reference

Example 2: Do you know what this is ? Yes, you are right. That is a wind mill.

It can also rotate at its point of centre.

Example 3:Generally flowers are liked by all. Is it not beautiful ? Apeksha wanted to rotate a flower by 900 in clockwise direction.

The flower is rotated in the clockwise direction by 900, 1800, 2700 and 3600.Example 4: Consider this triangular lamina. Let us rotate this by 900 in anti-clockwise direction.

When, we rotate this in the anti-clockwise direction by 900, 1800, 2700 and 3600 the figure takes the above positions. After one complete rotation, it takes the original position.

Example 5:

1200 2400 3600

Here, the figure is rotated clockwise by 1200, 2400, and 3600. Observe that in all these positions; the figure exactly looks like the original figure.

This figure is symmetrical. When the object rotates in few angles through rotational centre, there will not be any change. Such figures have rotational symmetry.

same shape of the original is called the angle of rotation.In example 5, O is the point of rotation and the angle of

rotation is 1200.A figure is said to have rotational symmetry, if it looks

exactly same as the original figure, when it is rotated at a fixed point with a particular angle of rotation. A figure appears exactly same as original after it rotates 360°.

PIn a full turn ie, when we rotate it completely 3600 there

are 4 positions when the figure looks exactly the same.Then, we say, it has rotational symmetry of order 4.In a complete turn, the number of times an object looks

exactly the same is called the order of rotational symmetry.In the above example 1 order of rotation is 2. We rotated

that figure by 900.In the above example 2 order of rotation is 3. In 3 rotations

of 1200 we get the original position.In the above example 3 order of rotation is 4. In this case

after 4 positions it takes the original position. In the above example 4 order of rotation is 4.In the above example 5 order of rotation is 3.Now, let us consider the following figure.

Activity 10: Take a piece of paper and fix it to a card board. Draw an equilateral triangle of each side 6 cm on the paper. Mark the midpoints of the sides and join them to the opposite vertices and get the point O. Now take a transparent piece of paper and draw a triangle identical to the orig-inal triangle by placing a transparent paper over

the original triangle and also draw the lines joining the mid-points of the sides to its vertices and get the point O in new triangle.

Now place the new triangle on the first triangle so that O and O and all other sides coincides each other. Now fix a pin into the shape at the point where O and O1 coincide each other. Turn the transparent paper in clockwise direction and observe how many times the shape coincides with the original shape in one full round. It coincides 3 times. So the order of rotational symmetry is 3 and angle of rotational symmetry is 1200.

Try this activity with a parallelogram and a rhombus.

If we know the order of rotational symmetry, we can find the angle of rotation using the following formula.From the above activity, Angle of rotation =Order of Rotation

3600 Angle of rotation = 3

Every rotating figure occupies the same position after a rotation of 360°. Its order of rotation is one.

Do you know, what this is ? This is a circular disc. Its centre is fixed on a nail, so that, the disc can be easily rotated.

This is an example for rotational symmetry.

Can you find the order of this ?

Yes it is the number of black or white triangles on the board. That is, the order of this disc is 10.

A figure which looks exactly same as the original figure more than once during a complete rotation is said to have different order of rotational symmetry.

• A figure has rotational symmetry when angle of rotation is less than or equal to 1800.

• All figures when rotated through 3600 come back to their original position.

• All figures have rotational symmetry of at least order 1.

• Cut out 2 squares of same size from a sheet of paper.• Draw the diagonals and locate the centre.• The point where the diagonals intersect is the centre.• Place the sheets one upon the other, so that, the two

figures match exactly.• Pierce a pin through the centre point to hold both the

sheets.• Turn the top sheet only and note, how many times the

top figure matches with the bottom figure.What is the angle of rotation and order of rotation? Would

it change, if you change the direction of rotation?

Activity 12: Locate an item in the room that has symmetry and ask a friend to try and guess which object you have selected. Offer 10 clues and allow the partner to guess after each clue. If the partner guesses the object then it is his/her turn to locate an object that has symmetry and offer you the clues. Points to be remembered:

• Rotation may be clockwise or anti-clockwise.• Every figure will have rotational symmetry of at least

order 1.• The point at which the figure is rotated is called the

point of rotation.• The angle of turning during rotation is called the angle

of rotation.• Number of times the figure matches with the original

figure in one complete rotation is called the order of rotation.
