Exercise 2.1
Question 1.

Which of the following expressions are polynomials in one variable and which are not? State reasons for your answer

(i)

(ii)

(iii)

(iv)

(v)


Answer:

Polynomial in one variable means that the polynomial contain only one variable. For example: p(x) = x + 1, p(w) = w2 + 1000, these are all polynomials in one variable.


(i)

p(x) = 4 x2 - 3 x + 7

There is only one variable x with whole number power so this is a polynomial in one variable


(ii)

p(y) = y2 + √2

There is only one variable y with whole number power so this is a polynomial in one variable



(iii)


There is only variable t but in 3 power of t is which is not a whole number so is not a polynomial.


(iv)


There is only one variable y but in power of y is -1 which is not a whole number so is not a polynomial


(v)

p(x, y, t) = x10 + y3 + t50

There are three variable x, y and t and their powers are whole number so this is a polynomial in three variable and not in one variable.


Question 2.

Write the coefficients of x2 in each of the following:

(i)

(ii)

(iii)

(iv)


Answer:

Coefficient of a variable in an equation is the number that is multiplied with that variable. Therefore for finding out the coefficient of x2 in the equations given below. Watch for the numbers multiplied with x2 and include the positive or negative sign.

Since coefficient is the multiplicative part to a variable in a single term, then

(i) Coefficients of x2 = 1

(ii) Coefficients of x2 = -1

(iii) Coefficients of x2 =

(iv) Coefficients of x2 = 0


Question 3.

Give one example each of a binomial of degree 35, and of a monomial of degree 100.


Answer:

Monomial is a polynomial with only one term. For Example: p(x) = x


Binomial is a polynomial with two terms. for example: p(x) = 3 x + 2 x 212121. So it does not matter what the power is just the number of terms should be 2.

And the degree of a polynomial is the highest power of the polynomial


Example of binomial with degree 35 is:

3x35 + 7

x35 + 4

Example of monomial degree is:

4x100

y100


Question 4.

Write the degree of each of the following polynomials:

(i)

(ii)

(iii)

(iv)


Answer:

(i) 5x3 has the highest power in the given polynomial which power is 3. Therefore, the degree of the polynomial is 3

(ii) –y2 has the highest power in the given polynomial which power is 2. Therefore, the degree of the polynomial is 2


(iii) 5t has the highest power in the given polynomial which power is 1. Therefore, the degree of the polynomial is 1


(iv) There is no variable in the given polynomial. Therefore, the degree of the polynomial is 0


Question 5.

Classify the following as linear, quadratic and cubic polynomials:

(i) x2 + x

(ii) x – x3

(iii) y + y2 + 4

(iv) 1 + x

(vi) r2

(vii) 7x3


Answer:

(i) Quadratic Polynomial, as its degree or highest power of variable is 2.

(ii) Cubic Polynomial, as its degree or highest power of variable is 3.


(iii) Quadratic Polynomial, as its degree or highest power of variable is 2


(iv) Linear Polynomial, as its degree or highest power of variable is 1


(v) Linear Polynomial, as its degree or highest power of variable is 1


(vi) Quadratic Polynomial, as its degree or highest power of variable is 2


(vii) Cubic Polynomial, as its degree or highest power of variable is 3.



Exercise 2.2
Question 1.

Find the value of the polynomial 5x – 4x2 + 3 at
(i) x = 0
(ii) x = –1
(iii) x = 2


Answer:

(i)

p(x) = 5x - 4x2 + 3

Now p(a) will mean replacing the variable with the value that is put in the bracket.

p (0) = 5(0) - 4(0)2 + 3

p(0) = 0 - 0 + 3

p(0) = 3

(ii)

p(x) = 5x - 4x2 + 3


Now p(a) will mean replacing the variable with the value that is put in bracket.

p (-1) = 5(-1) - 4(-1)2 + 3

p(- 1) = - 5 - 4 + 3

p(- 1) = - 9 + 3

p(- 1) = - 6

(iii)

p(x) = 5x - 4x2 + 3


Now p(a) will mean replacing the variable with the value that is put in the bracket.

p (2) = 5(2) - 4(2)2 + 3

p(2) = 10 – 16 + 3

p(2) = - 6 + 3

p(2) = - 3


Question 2.

Find p(0), p(1) and p(2) for each of the following polynomials:

(i)

(ii)

(iii)

(iv)


Answer:

(i) p(y) = y2 – y + 1

p (0) = (0)2 – (0) + 1 = 1


p (1) = (1)2 – (1) + 1 = 1


p (2) = (2)2 – (2) + 1 = 3


(ii) p(t) = 2 + t + 2t2 – t3


p (0) = 2 + 0 + 2 (0)2 – (0)3 = 2


p (1) = 2 + (1) + 2 (1)2 – (1)3


= 2 + 1 + 2 – 1 = 4


p (2) = 2 + 2 + 2 (2)2 – (2)3


= 2 + 2 + 8 – 8 = 4


(iii) p(x) = x3


p (0) = (0)3 = 0


p (1) = (1)3 = 1


p (2) = (2)3 = 8


(iv) p(x) = (x – 1) (x + 1)


p (0) = (0 – 1) (0 + 1) = (-1) (1) = -1


p (1) = (1 – 1) (1 + 1) = 0 (2) = 0


p (2) = (2 – 1) (2 + 1) = 1 (3) = 3


Question 3.

Verify whether the following are zeroes of the polynomial, indicated against them.

(i)

(ii)

(iii)

(iv)

(v)

(vi)

(vii)

(viii)


Answer:

For any value of x, say a, to be a zero of polynomial p(a) = 0


Keeping that in mind,

(i) Here p(x)= 3x + 1 , for x = -1/3


Therefore, x = –1/3 is a zero of polynomial p(x) = 3x + 1


(ii) here p(x) = 5x - π, for x = 4/5,


Since,

Therefore, x = 4/5 is not a zero of polynomial p(x) = 5x - π


(iii) If x = 1 and x = -1 are zeros of polynomial p(x) = x2 - 1 then p (1) and p (-1) should be 0


At, p (1) = (1)2 – 1 = 0 and,


At, p (-1) = (-1)2 – 1 = 0


Hence, x = 1 and -1 are zeros of polynomial p (x) = x2 - 1


(iv) If x = -1 and x = 2 are zeros of polynomial p(x) = (x + 1) (x – 2) then p (-1) and p (2) should be 0


At, p (-1) = (-1 + 1) (- 1 – 2) = 0 (-3) = 0 and,


At, p (2) = (2 + 1) (2 – 2) = 3 (0) = 0


Hence, x = -1 and x = 2 are zeros of polynomial p (x) = (x + 1) (x – 2)


(v) If x = 0 is a zero of polynomial p (x) = x2


Then, p (0) should be zero


Here, p (0) = (0)2 = 0


Hence, x = 0 is the zero of the polynomial p (x) = x2


(vi) If x = is a zero of the polynomial p(x) = lx + m then p () should be 0



Therefore, x = is the zero of the polynomial p(x) = l x + m


(vii) If x = and x = are zeros of the polynomial p(x) = 3 x2 – 1, then


p() and p() should be 0


At, p () = 3 ()2 – 1


= 3 () – 1


= 1 – 1 = 0 and,


At, p () = 3 ()2 – 1


= 3 () – 1


= 4 – 1 = 3


Therefore, x = is a zero of the polynomial p(x) = 3x2 + 1


But, x = is not a zero of the polynomial


(viii) If x = is a zero of polynomial p (x) = 2x + 1 then p(1/2) should be zero


At, p () = 2 () + 1


= 1 + 1 = 2


Therefore, x = is not a zero of given polynomial p(x) = 2x + 1


Question 4.

Find the zero of the polynomial in each of the following cases:

(i)

(ii)

(iii)

(iv)

(v)

(vi)

(vii)are real numbers.


Answer:

Zero of a polynomial means the value of the variable at which the polynomial becomes zero.

For example for a polynomial f(x), zeroes of f(x) means the values of x at which f(x) = 0

Let f(x) = x + 2, so it can clearly be seen that if you put x = - 2, then f(x) = 0.


(i)
p (x) = x + 5

p (x) = 0


x + 5 = 0


x = -5


Therefore, x = -5 is a zero of the polynomial p(x) = x + 5


(ii) p (x) = x – 5


p (x) = 0


x – 5 = 0


x = 5


Therefore, x = 5 is a zero of the polynomial p(x) = x - 5


(iii) p (x) = 2x + 5


P (x) = 0


2x + 5 = 0


2x = -5


x =


Therefore, x = is a zero of the polynomial p(x) = 2x + 5


(iv) p (x) = 3x – 2


p (x) = 0


3x – 2 = 0


x =


Therefore, x = is a zero of the polynomial p(x) = 3x - 2


(v) p (x) = 3 x


p (x) = 0


3 x = 0


x = 0


Therefore, x = 0 is a zero of the polynomial p(x) = 3x


(vi) p (x) = ax


p (x) = 0


ax = 0


x = 0


Therefore, x = 0 is a zero of the polynomial p(x) = ax


(vii) p (x) = cx + d


p (x) = 0


cx + d = 0


x =


Therefore, x = is a zero of polynomial p (x) = cx + d



Exercise 2.3
Question 1.

Find the remainder when is divided by

(i)

(ii)

(iii)

(iv)

(v)


Answer: Remainder Theorem: If f(x) is a polynomial and it is divided by another polynomial g(x), the remainder of this division equals to the value f(a), where a is the solution of polynomial g(x) = 0

for example: if x2 + 2 is divided by x - 1, then to find remainder.

put x - 1 = 0
x = 1 and now putting this value in x2 + 1, we get 1 + 1 =2 as the remainder.

(i) f(x) = x3 + 3 x2 + 3 x + 1

Now let g(x) = x + 1

So for finding remainder, put g(x) = 0

x + 1 = 0
x = -1
So f(- 1) will be the remainder when f(x) is divided by g(x)
f (- 1) = (- 1)3 + 3 (- 1)2 + 3 (- 1) + 1
f (- 1) = -1 + 3 -3 + 1
f (- 1) = 0
Hence, Remainder = 0


(ii) f(x) = x3 + 3 x2 + 3 x + 1

Now let g(x) = x - 1/2

So for finding remainder, put g(x) = 0
x - 1/2 = 0
x = 1/2
so, f(1/2) will be the remainder when f(x) is divided by g(x)

f(1/2) = (1/2)3 + 3 (1/2)2 + 3 (1/2) + 1





Hence, Remainder = 27/8


(iii) f(x) = x3 + 3 x2 + 3 x + 1

Now let g(x) = x

So for finding remainder, put g(x) = 0
x = 0
So, f(0) will be the remainder when f(x) is divided by g(x)
f(0) = (0)3 + 3 (0)2 + 3 (0) + 1
f(0) = 1

Hence, Remainder = 1

(iv) f(x) = x3 + 3 x2 + 3 x + 1

Now let g(x) = x + Π

So for finding remainder, put g(x) = 0

x + Π = 0
x = - Π
So, f(- Π) will be the remainder when f(x) is divided by g(x)
f(- Π) = (- Π)3 + 3 (- Π)2 + 3 (- Π) + 1
f(- Π) = - Π3 + 3 Π2 - 3Π + 1

- Π3 + 3 Π2 - 3Π + 1 will be the remainder


(v) f(x) = x3 + 3 x2 + 3 x + 1

Now let g(x) = 5 + 2x

So for finding the remainder, g(x) = 0

5 + 2x = 0
x = -5/2
So, f(-5/2) will be the remainder when f(x) is divided by g(x)









f(-5/2) = -27/8 will be the remainder .

Question 2.

Find the remainder when x3 - ax2 + 6x - a is divided by x - a.


Answer:

By long division method, we have


Therefore, the remainder obtained is 5a when x3 – ax2 + 6x – a is divided by x – a

Remainder theorem:

Now to find the remainder when x3 – ax2 + 6x – a is divided by x – a

we have to put x - a = 0, Thus x = a

Let f(x) = x3 – ax2 + 6x – a
and f(a) will be the remainder

f(a) = a3 - a. a2 + 6 a - a
f(a) = a3 - a3 + 5 a
f(a) = 5 a


Hence 5 a is the remainder when x3 – ax2 + 6x – a is divided by x – a.




Question 3.

Check whether 7 + 3x is a factor of 3x3 + 7x.


Answer:

To check for (3x + 7) be a factor of (3x3 + 7x)

We have to divide 3x3 + 7x by 7 + 3x

If remainder comes out be 0 then (7 + 3x) will be a factor of (3x3 + 7x)


By long division method,



As remainder is not zero so (7 + 3x) is not a factor of (3x3 + 7x)

By Remainder theorem:

put 7 + 3 x = 0

we get x = -7/3

Now for checking out the remainder put x = -7/3 in (3x3 + 7x)

we get,

f(-7/3) = 3(-7/3)3 + 7 (-7/3)

f(-7/3) = - (343/9) - (49/3)



f(-7/3) = -490/9

which is not equal to zero and hence (7 + 3x) is not a factor of (3x3 + 7x).



Exercise 2.4
Question 1.

Determine which of the following polynomials has (x + 1) a factor:

(i)

(ii)

(iii)

(iv)


Answer:

To check for (x + 1) as a factor of given polynomials by remainder theorem, we check for p(-1)=0.

(i) If (x + 1) is a factor of p (x) = x3 + x2 + x + 1, p (-1) must be zero

Here, p (x) = x3 + x2 + x + 1


p (-1) = (-1)3 + (-1)2 + (-1) + 1


= -1 + 1 – 1 + 1 = 0


Therefore, x + 1 is a factor of this polynomial


(ii) If (x + 1) is a factor of p (x) = x4 + x3 + x2 + x + 1, p (-1) must be zero


Here, p (x) = x4+ x3 + x2 + x + 1


p (-1) = (-1)4 + (-1)3 + (-1)2 + (-1) + 1


= 1 - 1 + 1 – 1 + 1 ≠ 0


Therefore, x + 1 is not a factor of this polynomial


(iii) If (x + 1) is a factor of p (x) = x4 + 3x3 + 3x2 + x + 1, p (-1) must be zero


Here, p (x) = x4+ 3x3 + 3x2 + x + 1


p (-1) = (-1)4 + 3(-1)3 + 3(-1)2 + (-1) + 1


= 1 - 3 + 3 – 1 + 1 ≠ 0


Therefore, x + 1 is not a factor of this polynomial


(iv) If (x + 1) is a factor of polynomial


p (x) = x3 – x2 – (2 + √2)x + √2, p(-1) must be zero


p (-1) = (-1)3 – (-1)2 – (2 + √2) (-1) + √2


= -1 – 1 + 2 + √2 + √2


= 2√2


As, p (-1) ≠ 0


Therefore, x + 1 is not a factor of this polynomial


Question 2.

Use the Factor Theorem to determine whether g(x) is a factor of p(x) in each of the following cases:

(i)

(ii)

(iii)


Answer:

(i) If g (x) = x + 1 is a factor of given polynomial p (x), p (-1) must be zero

p (x) = 2x3 + x2 – 2x – 1


p (-1) = 2 (-1)3 + (-1)2 – 2 (-1) – 1


= 2 (-1) + 1 + 2 – 1 = 0


Hence, g (x) = x + 1 is a factor of given polynomial


(ii) If g (x) = x + 2 is a factor of given polynomial p (x), p (-2) must be zero


p (x) = x3 + 3x2 + 3x + 1


p (-2) = (-2)3 + 3(-2)2 + 3 (-2) + 1


= -8 + 12 - 6 + 1 = -1


As, p (-2) ≠ 0


Hence, g (x) = x + 2 is not a factor of given polynomial


(iii) If g (x) = x – 3 is a factor of given polynomial p (x), p (3) must be zero


p (x) = x3 – 4x2 + x + 6


p (3) = (3)3 – 4 (3)2 + 3 + 6


= 27 – 36 + 9 = 0


Therefore, g(x) = x – 3 is a factor of the given polynomial


Question 3.

Find the value of k, if is a factor of p(x) in each of the following cases:

(i)

(ii)

(iii)

(iv)


Answer:

If g(x) is a factor of another polynomial p(x) then, the points at which g(x) = 0, p(x) will also be equal to 0

for example: Let p(x) = x2 - 1 and g(x) = x + 1

By remainder theorem.

Now if x + 1 is a factor of p(x), then x + 1 = 0, x = -1 at this value p(x) = 0

Thus, p(- 1) = 0


(i) If x – 1 is a factor of polynomial p (x) = x2 + x + k, then

x - 1 = 0

x = 1

Therefore,

p (1) = 0

(1)2 + 1+ k = 0

2 + k = 0


k = -2


Therefore, value of k is -2


(ii) If x – 1 is a factor of polynomial p (x) = 2x2 + kx + , then


p (1) = 0


2(1)2 + k (1) + = 0


2 + k + = 0


k = -2 -


= - (2 + )


Therefore, value of k is – (2 + )


(iii) If x – 1 is a factor of given polynomial p(x) = kx2 - x + 1, then


p (1) = 0


k (1)2 - (1) + 1 = 0


k - + 1 = 0


k = - 1


Therefore, value of k is √2 – 1


(iv) If x – 1 is a factor of the given polynomial p(x) = kx2 – 3x + k, then


p (1) = 0


k(1)2 + 3(1) + k = 0


k – 3 + k = 0


2k – 3 = 0


k =


Therefore, value of k is


Question 4.

Factorize:

(i)

(ii)

(iii)

(iv)


Answer:

For quadratic polynomial. We factorize the middle term such that the product of the terms is equal to the product of the last term and coefficient of x2 and sum or difference is equal to the middle term.

(i)


12x2 - 7x + 1

For the equation given above:

7 is to be factorized such that, the product of two terms is 12 x 1 = 12 and the sum is equal to 7
This can be done by 3 and 4
as 3 x 4 = 12
and 3 + 4 = 7
Therefore,

12x2 - 7x + 1 = 12x2 – 4x – 3x + 1


= 4x (3x – 1) – 1 (3x – 1)


= (3x – 1) (4x – 1)


(ii)

2x2 + 7x + 3

For the equation given above:

7 is to be factorized such that, the product of two terms is 3 x 2 = 6 and the sum is equal to 7
This can be done by 6 and 1
as 6 x 1 = 6
and 6 + 1 = 7
Therefore,

2x2 + 7x + 3 = 2x2 + 6x + x + 3


= 2x (x + 3) + 1 (x + 3)


= (x + 3) (2x + 1)


(iii)

6x2 + 5x – 6

For the equation given above:

7 is to be factorized such that, the product of two terms is 6 x 6 = 36 and the difference is equal to 5
This can be done by 9 and 4
as 9 x 4 = 36
and 9 - 4 = 5
Therefore,

6x2 + 5x – 6 = 6x2 + 9x – 4x – 6


= 3x (2x + 3) – 2 (2x + 3)


= (2x + 3) (3x – 2)


(iv)

3x2 - x - 4

For the equation given above:

7 is to be factorized such that, the product of two terms is 4 x 3 = 12 and the difference = 1
This can be done by 4 and 3
as 4 x 3 = 12
and 4 - 3 = 1
Therefore,

3x2 - x - 4=3x2 – 4x + 3x – 4


= x (3x – 4) + 1 (3x – 4)


= (3x – 4) (x + 1)


Question 5.

Factorize:

(i)

(ii)

(iii)

(iv)


Answer:

(i) Let p(x) = x3 – 2x2 – x + 2


By trial method, we find that

p (-1) = (-1)3 – 2 (-1)2 – (-1) + 2


= -1 – 2 + 1 + 2 = 0


Therefore, x= -1 satisfies the equation and (x + 1) is the factor of p (x)
Now, we divide p(x) = x3 - 2x - x + 2 by (x + 1)



Now, Dividend = (Divisor × Quotient) + Remainder


p (x) = (x + 1) (x2 – 3x + 2)


= (x + 1) (x2 – x – 2x + 2)


= (x + 1) {x (x – 1) – 2 (x – 1)}


= (x + 1) (x – 1) (x - 2)


(ii) Let p (x) = x3 – 3x2 – 9x – 5


By trial method,

p (5) = (5)3 – 3 (5)2 – 9 (5) – 5


= 125 – 75 – 45 – 5 = 0


Therefore, (x – 5) is the factor of p (x)

Now, we divide p(x) = x3 - 3x2 - 9x - 5 by (x - 5)


Now, Dividend = (Divisor × Quotient) + Remainder


p(x) = (x – 5) (x2 + 2x + 1)


= (x – 5) (x2 + x + x + 1)

= (x – 5) {x (x + 1) + 1 (x + 1)}

= (x – 5) (x + 1) (x + 1)


(iii) Let p (x) = x3 + 13x2 + 32x + 20

By trial method,


p (-1) = (-1)3 + 13 (-1)2 + 32 (-1) + 20


= -1 + 13 – 32 + 20 = 0


Therefore, x = -1 satisfies the equation p(x) = 0 so, (x + 1) is the factor of p (x)


Now we divide p (x) = x3 + 13x2 + 32x + 20 by (x + 1)


Now, Dividend = (Divisor × Quotient) + Remainder


p(x) = (x + 1) (x2 + 12x + 20)


= (x + 1) (x2 + 2x + 10x + 20)


= (x + 1) {x (x + 2) + 10 (x + 2)}


= (x + 1) (x + 2) (x + 10)


(iv) Let, p(y) = 2y3 + y2 – 2y – 1


By trial method,

p (1) = 2 (1)3 + (1)2 – 2 (1) – 1


= 2 + 1 -1 -1 = 0


Therefore, y = 1 satisfies the equation p(y) = 0 so, (y – 1) is a factor of p(y)
Now, we divide p(y) = 2y3 + y2 – 2y – 1 by (y - 1)



Now, Dividend = (Divisor × Quotient) + Remainder


p(y) = (y – 1) (2y2 - 3y + 1)


= (y – 1) (2y2 - 2y - y + 1)


= (y – 1) {2y (y - 1) - 1 (y - 1)}


= (y – 1) (2y - 1) (y - 1)

Question 1.

Use suitable identities to find the following products:
(i) (x + 4) (x + 10)
(ii) (x + 8) (x - 10)
(iii) (3x + 4) (3x - 5)
(iv)
(v) (3 - 2x) (3 + 2x)


Answer:

(i) (x + 4) (x + 10)

Using identity,

(x + a) (x + b) = x2 + (a + b)x + ab

In (x + 4) (x + 10), a = 4 and b = 10

Now,

(x + 4) (x + 10) = x2 + (4 + 10)x + (4 × 10)

= x2 + 14x + 40


(ii) (x + 8) (x - 10)

Using identity,

(x + a) (x + b) = x2 + (a + b) x + ab

Here, a = 8 and b = -10

(x + 8) (x – 10) = x2 + {8 + (-10)} x + {8 × (-10)}

= x2 + (8 – 10)x – 80

= x2 – 2x – 80


(iii) (3x + 4) (3x - 5)

Using identity,

(x + a) (x + b) = x2 + (a + b) x + ab

Here, x = 3x, a = 4 and b = -5

(3x + 4) (3x – 5) = (3x)2 + {4 + (-5)} 3x + {4 × (-5)}

= 9x2 + 3x (4 – 5) – 20

= 9x2 – 3x – 20


(iv)

Using identity,

(x + y) (x – y) = x2 – y2

Here, x = y2 and y =




(v) (3 - 2x) (3 + 2x)

Using identity,

(x + y) (x – y) = x2 – y2

Here, x = 3 and y = 2x

(3 – 2x) (3 + 2x) = 32 – (2x)2

= 9 – 4x2


Question 2.

Evaluate the following products without multiplying directly:
(i)

(ii) 95 x 96

(iii)


Answer:

(i) Using identity,

(x + a) (x + b) = x2 + (a + b) x + ab


Here, x = 100, a = 3 and b = 7


103 × 107 = (100 + 3) (100 + 7)


= (100)2 + (3 + 7) 100 + (3 × 7)


= 10000 + 1000 + 21


= 11021


(ii) Using identity,


(x - a) (x - b) = x2 - (a + b) x + ab


Here, x = 100, a = 5 and b = 4


95 × 96 = (100 - 5) (100 - 4)


= (100)2 - (5 + 4) 90 + (5 x 4)


= 10000 - 1800 + 20


= 9120


(iii) Using identity,


(x + y) (x – y) = x2 – y2


Here, x = 100 and y = 4


104 × 96 = (100 + 4) (100 – 4)


= (100)2 – (4)2


= 10000 – 16


= 9984


Question 3.

Factorize the following using appropriate identities:

(i)

(ii)

(iii)


Answer:

(i) 9x2 + 6xy + y2 = (3x)2 + (2 × 3x × y) + y2

Using identity, (a + b)2 = a2 + 2ab + b2


Here, a = 3x and b = y


9x2 + 6xy + y2 = (3x)2 + (2 × 3 × y) + y2


= (3x + y)2


= (3x + y) (3x + y)


(ii) 4y2 - 4y + 1 = (4y)2 - (2 × 2y × 1) + 12


Using identity, (a - b)2 = a2 - 2ab + b2


Here, a = 2y and b = 1


4y2 - 4y + 1 = (2y)2 - (2 × 2y × 1) + 12


= (2y - 1)2


= (2y - 1) (2y - 1)


(iii) Using identity,


a2 – b2 = (a + b) (a – b)


Here, a = x and b = ()

(a + b + c)2 = a2 + b2 + c2 + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca

Here, a = x, b = 2y and c = 4z


(x + 2y + 4z)2 = x2 + (2y)2 + (4z)2 + (2 × x × 2y) + (2 × 2y × 4z) + (2 × 4z × x)


= x2 + 4y2 + 16z2 + 4xy + 16yz + 8xz


(ii) Using identity,


(a + b + c)2 = a2 + b2 + c2 + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca

(2x – y + z)2 = (2x)2 + (-y)2 + z2 + (2 × 2x × -y) + (2 × -y × z) + (2 × z × 2x)

= 4x2 + y2 + z2 – 4xy – 2yz + 4xz


(iii) Using identity, (a + b + c)2 = a2 + b2 + c2 + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca


Here, a = -2x, b = 3y and c = 2z

(-2x + 3y + 2z)2 = (-2x)2 + (3y)2 + (2z)2 + (2 × -2x × 3y) + (2 × 3y × 2z) + (2 × 2z × -2x)

= 4x2 + 9y2 + 4z2 – 12xy + 12yz – 8xz


(iv) Using identity, (a + b + c)2 = a2 + b2 + c2 + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca

Here, a = 3a, b = -7b and c = -c

(3a – 7b – c)2 = (3a)2 + (-7b)2 + (-c)2+ (2 ×3a × -7b) + (2 × -7b × -c) + (2 × -c × 3a)

= 9a2 + 49b2 + c2 – 42ab + 14bc – 6ac


(v) Using identity, (a + b + c)2 = a2 + b2 + c2 + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca


Here, a = -2x, b = 5y and c = -3z

(-2x + 5y – 3z)2 = (-2x)2 + (5y)2 + (-3z)2+ (2 ×-2x × 5y) + (2 × 5y × -3z) + (2 × -3z × -2x)

= 4x2 + 25y2 + 9z2 – 20xy -30yz + 12xz


(vi) Using identity, (a + b + c)2 = a2 + b2 + c2 + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca


Here, a = a, b = b and c = 1


(a – b + 1)2 = (a)2 + (-b)2 + (1)2+ (2 ×a × -b) + (2 × -b × 1) + (2 × 1 × a)


= a2 + b2 + 1 – ab - b + a


Question 5.

Answer:

(i) Using identity,

(a + b + c)2 = a2 + b2 + c2 + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca


4x2 + 9y2 + 16z2 + 12xy – 24yz – 16xz


= (2x)2 + (3y)2 + (-4z)2 + (2 × 2 × 3y) + (2 × 3y × -4z) + (2 × -4z × 2x)


= (2x + 3y – 4z)2


= (2x + 3y – 4z) (2x + 3y – 4z)


(ii) Using identity,


(a + b + c)2 = a2 + b2 + c2 + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca


2x2 + y2 + 8z2 - 2√2xy + 4√2yz – 8xz


= (-√2x)2 + (y)2 + (2√2z)2 + (2 × -√2x × y) + (2 × y × 2√2z) + (2 × 2√2z × -√2x)


= (-√2x + y + 2√2z)2


= (-√2x + y + 2√2z) (-√2x + y + 2√2z)


Question 6.

(i)

(ii)

(iii)

(iv)


Answer:

(i) (2x + 1)3

Using identity,


(a + b)3 = a3 + b3 + 3ab (a + b)


(2x + 1)3 = (2x)3 + (1)3 + (3 × 2x × 1) (2x + 1)


= 8x3 + 1 + 6x (2x + 1)


= 8x3 + 12x2 + 6x + 1


(ii) Using identity,


(a – b)3 = a3 – b3 – 3ab (a – b)


(2a – 3b)3 = (2a)3 – (3b)3 – (3 × 2a × 3b) (2a – 3b)


= 8a3 – 27b3 – 18ab (2a – 3b)


= 8a3 – 27b3 – 36a2b + 54ab2


(iii) Using identity,


(a + b)3 = a3 + b3 + 3ab (a + b)


(x + 1)3 = (x)3 + 13 + (3 × x × 1) (x + 1)


= x3 + 1 + x (x + 1)


= x3 + 1 + x2 + x


= x3 + x2 + x + 1


(iv) Using identity,


(a – b)3 = a3 – b3 – 3ab (a – b)


(x - y)3 = (x)3 – (y)3 – (3 × x × y) (x - y)


= x3 - y3 – 2xy (x - y)


= x3 - y3 – 2x2y + xy2


Question 7.

Evaluate the following using suitable identities:

(i)

(ii)

(iii)


Answer:

(i) (99)3 = (100 – 1)3

Using identity,


(a – b)3 = a3 – b3 – 3ab(a – b)


(100 – 1)3 = (100)3 – 13 – (3 × 100 × 1) (100 – 1)


= 1000000 – 1 – 300 (100 – 1)


= 1000000 – 1 – 30000 + 300


= 970299


(ii) (102)3 = (100 + 2)3


Using identity,


(a + b)3 = a3 + b3 + 3ab (a + b)


(100 + 2)3 = (100)3 + 23 + (3 × 100 × 2) (100 + 2)


= 1000000 + 8 + 600 (100 + 2)


= 1000000 + 8 + 60000 + 1200


= 1061208


(iii) (998)3 = (1000 – 2)3


Using identity,


(a – b)3 = a3 – b3 – 3ab (a – b)


(1000 – 2)3 = (1000)3 – 23 – (3 × 1000 × 2) (1000 – 2)


= 1000000000 – 8 – 6000 (1000 – 2)


= 1000000000 – 8 – 6000000 + 12000


= 994011992


Question 8.

(i)

(ii)

(iii)

(iv)

(v)


Answer:

(i)
Using identity,

(a + b)3 = a3 + b3 + 3a2b + 3ab2


8a3 + b3 + 12a2b + 6ab2


= (2a)3 + b3 + 3 (2a) (2b) + 3 (2a) (b)2


= (2a + b)3


= (2a + b) (2a + b) (2a + b)


(ii)
Using identity,


(a + b)3 = a3 + b3 + 3a2b + 3ab2


8a3 – b3 – 12a2b + 6ab2


= (2a)3 – b3 – 3 (2a)2b + 3 (2a) (b)2


= (2a – b)3


= (2a – b) (2a – b) (2a – b)


(iii)
Using identity,


(a - b)3 = a3 - b3 - 3a2b + 3ab2


27 – 125a3 – 135a + 225a2


= 33 – (5a)3 – 3 (3)2(5a) + 3 (3) (5a)2


= (3 – 5a)3


= (3 – 5a) (3 – 5a) (3 – 5a)


(iv)
Using identity,


(a - b)3 = a3 - b3 - 3a2b + 3ab2


64a3 – 27b3 – 144a2b + 108ab2


= (4a)3 – (3b)3 – 3 (4a)2 (3b) + 3 (4a) (3b)2


= (4a – 3b)3


= (4a – 3b) (4a – 3b) (4a – 3b)


(v)
Using identity,


(a + b)3 = a3 + b3 + 3a2b + 3ab2


27p3 - - p2 + p


= (3p)3 – ()3 – 3 (3p)2 () + 3 (3p) ()2


= (3p - )3


= (3p - ) (3p - ) (3p - )


Question 9.

Verify:
(i) x3 + y3 = (x + y) (x2 + y2 – xy)

(ii) x3 - y3 = (x - y) (x2 + y2 + xy)


Answer:

(i)x3 + y3 = (x + y) (x2 + y2 – xy)

We know that,

(x + y)3 = x3 + y3 + 3xy (x + y)


⇒ x3 + y3 = (x + y)3 – 3xy (x + y)


[Taking (x + y) common]


⇒ x3 + y3 = (x + y) [(x + y)2 – 3xy)


⇒ x3 + y3 = (x + y) [(x2 + y2 + 2xy) – 3xy] ........[(x + y)2 = x2 + y2 + 2 x y]


⇒ x3 + y3 = (x + y) (x2 + y2 – xy)


(ii)x3 - y3 = (x - y) (x2 + y2 + xy)

We know that,


(x - y)3 = x3 - y3 - 3xy (x - y)


⇒ x3 - y3 = (x - y)3 + 3xy (x - y)



[Taking (x - y) common]

⇒ x3 - y3 = (x - y) [(x - y)2 + 3xy)


⇒ x3 - y3 = (x - y) [(x2 + y2 - 2xy) + 3xy] ......[(x - y)2 = x2 + y2 - 2 x y]


= x3 - y3 = (x - y) (x2 + y2 + xy)


Question 10.

Factorize each of the following:
[Hint: See Question 9]
(i) 27y3 + 125z3
(ii) 64m3 – 343n3


Answer:

(i) Using identity,

x3 + y3 = (x + y) (x2 – xy + y2)

27y3 + 125z3 = (3y)3 + (5z)3

= (3y + 5z) {(3y)2 – (3y) (5z) + (5z)2}

= (3y + 5z) (9y2 – 15yz + 25z2)


(ii) Using identity,

x3 – y3 = (x – y) (x2 + xy + y2)

64m3 – 343n3 = (4m)3 – (7n)3

= (4m - 7n) {(4m)2 + (4m) (7n) + (7n)2}

= (4m - 7n) (16m2 + 28mn + 49n)2


Question 11.

Factorize:


Answer:

27x3 + y3 + z3 – 9xyz = (3x)3 + y3 + z3 – 3 × 3xyz

Using identity,


x3 + y3 + z3 – 3xyz = (x + y + z) (x2 + y2 + z2 – xy – yz – xz)


27x3 + y3 + z3 – 9xyz


= (3x + y + z) {(3x)2 + y2 + z2 – 3xy – yz – 3xz}


= (3x + y + z) (9x2 + y2 + z2 – 3xy – yz – 3xz)


Question 12.

Verify that:


Answer:

We know that,

x3 + y3 + z3 – 3xyz = (x + y + z) (x2 + y2 + z2 – xy – yz – xz)

Dividing and Multiplying RHS by 2 gives,




As, [ (x - y)2 = x2 + y2 - 2x y, (y - z)2 = y2 + z2 - 2y z, (z - x)2 = z2 + x2 - 2z x]


= R.H.S

Hence, proved.


Question 13.

If x + y + z = 0, show that x3 + y3 + z3 = 3xyz.


Answer:

We know that,

x3 + y3 + z3 – 3xyz = (x + y + z) (x2 + y2 + z2 – xy – yz – xz)

Now, put (x + y + z) = 0

x3 + y3 + z3 – 3xyz = (0) (x2 + y2 + z2 – xy – yz – xz)

x3 + y3 + z3 – 3xyz = 0
x3 + y3 + z3 = 3xyz
Hence proved


Question 14.

Without actually calculating the cubes, find the value of each of the following:

(i)

(ii)


Answer:

(i) Let x = -12, y = 7 and z = 5

We observed that,


x + y + z = -12 + 7 + 5 = 0


We know that if,


x + y + z = 0


Then,


x3 + y3 + z3 = 3xyz


(-12)3 + (7)3 + (5)3 = 3 (-12) (7) (5)


= -1260


(ii) Let x = 28, y = -15 and z = -13


We observed that,


x + y + z = 28 – 15 – 13 = 0


We know that if,


x + y + z = 0


Then,


x3 + y3 + z3 = 3xyz


(28)3 + (-15)3 + (-13)3 = 3 (28) (-15) (-13)


= 16380



Question 15.

Give possible expressions for the length and breadth of each of the following rectangles, in which their areas are given:

(i) Area : 25a2 – 35a + 12

(ii) Area : 35y2 + 13y – 12


Answer:

(i) Area: 25a2 – 35a + 12

Since the area is the product of length and breadth therefore by factorizing the given area, we can know the length and breadth of the rectangle

25a2 – 35a + 12

So for factorizing the above equation, we would need two numbers such that, their product is 300 and their sum is 35

= 25a2 – 15a – 20a + 12


= 5a (5a – 3) – 4 (5a – 3)


= (5a – 4) (5a – 3)


Possible expression for length = (5a – 4) or (5 a - 3)

Possible expression for breadth = (5a – 3) or ( 5 a - 4)


(ii) Area: 35y2 + 13y – 12

35y2 + 13y – 12

Now we will factorize this equation such that, the product of two numbers is 420 and their difference is 12.

= 35y2 – 15y + 28y – 12


= 5y (7y – 3) + 4 (7y – 3)


= (5y + 4) (7y – 3)


Possible expression for length = (5y + 4) or (7 y - 3)


Possible expression for breadth = (7y – 3) or (5 y + 4)


Question 16.

What are the possible expressions for the dimensions of the cuboids whose volumes are given below?

(i) Volume : 3x2 – 12x

(ii) Volume : 12ky2 + 8ky – 20k


Answer:

(i) Volume: 3x2 – 12x

Since, the volume is the product of length, breadth, and height therefore by factorizing the given volume we can know the length, breadth and height of the cuboid


3x2 – 12x


= 3x (x – 4)


Possible expression for length = 3


Possible expression for breadth = x


Possible expression for height = (x – 4)


(ii) Volume: 12ky2 + 8ky – 20k


Since, the volume is the product of length, breadth, and height therefore by factorizing the given volume, we can know the length, breadth and height of the cuboid


12ky2 + 8ky – 20k


= 4k (3y2 + 2y – 5)


= 4k (3y2 + 5y – 3y – 5)


= 4k [y (3y + 5) – 1 (3y + 5)]


= 4k (3y + 5) (y – 1)


Possible expression for length = 4k


Possible expression for breadth = (3y + 5)


Possible expression for height = (y – 1)
