2. Write a Pythagorean triplet whose one member is.
(i) 6 (ii) 14 (iii) 16 (iv) 18
Solution- According to the chapter we know that For any natural number m > 1, we have (2m) 2 + (m2 – 1)2 = (m2 + 1)2 . So, 2m, m2 – 1 and m2 + 1 forms a Pythagorean triplet.
To find Pythagorean triplet first we observe the this number if it is the nearest of the perfect square number then we assume m2 – 1 and m2 + 1 according to the conditions.
(i) 6 is the one of the element of Pythagorean triplet. 6 is not a nearest number of the perfect square so we can't assume 6 as m2 – 1 and m2 + 1.
let 2m = 6
m = 3
So, other element of Pythagorean triplet is-
m2 – 1 = 32 – 1 = 9 - 1 = 8
and
m2 + 1 = 32 + 1 = 9 + 1 = 10
Hence, Pythagorean triplet is (6, 8, 10)
(ii) 14 is the one of the element of Pythagorean triplet. 14 is not a nearest number of the perfect square so we can't assume 14 as m2 – 1 and m2 + 1.
let 2m = 14
m = 7
So, other element of Pythagorean triplet is-
m2 – 1 = 72 – 1 = 49 - 1 = 48
and
m2 + 1 = 72 + 1 = 49 + 1 = 50
Hence, Pythagorean triplet is (14, 48, 50)
(iii) 16 is the one of the element of Pythagorean triplet. 16 is not a nearest number of the perfect square so we can't assume 16 as m2 – 1 and m2 + 1.
let 2m = 16
m = 8
So, other element of Pythagorean triplet is-
m2 – 1 = 82 – 1 = 64 - 1 = 63
and
m2 + 1 = 82 + 1 = 64 + 1 = 65
Hence, Pythagorean triplet is (16, 63, 65)
(iv) 18 is the one of the element of Pythagorean triplet. 18 is not a nearest number of the perfect square so we can't assume 18 as m2 – 1 and m2 + 1.
let 2m = 18
m = 9
So, other element of Pythagorean triplet is-
m2 – 1 = 92 – 1 = 81 - 1 = 80
and
m2 + 1 = 92 + 1 = 81 + 1 = 82
Hence, Pythagorean triplet is (9, 80, 82)

9. Find the smallest square number that is divisible by each of the numbers 4, 9 and 10.
Solution-
First find the smallest common multiple and then find the square number needed.
The least number divisible by each one of 4, 9 and 10 is their LCM.
The LCM of 4, 9 and 10 is 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 5 = 180.
Prime factorisation of 180 is 180 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 5.
We see that prime factors 5 are not in pairs.
Therefore 180 is not a perfect square. In order to get a perfect square, each factor of 180 must be paired.
So we need to make pairs of 5.
Therefore, 180 should be multiplied by 5.
Hence, the required square number is 180 × 5 = 900.
10. Find the smallest square number that is divisible by each of the numbers 8, 15 and 20.
Solution-
First find the smallest common multiple and then find the square number needed.
The least number divisible by each one of 8, 15 and 20 is their LCM.
The LCM of 8, 15 and 20 is 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 = 120.
Prime factorisation of 120 is 120 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 5.
We see that prime factors 2, 3 and 5 are not in pairs.
Therefore 120 is not a perfect square. In order to get a perfect square, each factor of 120 must be paired.
So we need to make pairs of 2, 3 and 5.
Therefore, 120 should be multiplied by 2 × 3 × 5, i.e., 30.
Hence, the required square number is 120 × 30 = 3600.

6. Find the length of the side of a square whose area is 441 m².
Solution-
As we know that the length of all side of all square is equal.
Let the side of the square is x
The area of the square = side ✕ side = x ✕ x =x²
Then,
x² = 441
x = √441
x = 21
Hence, the length of the side of a square is 21.
7. In a right triangle ABC, ∠B = 90°. (a) If AB = 6 cm, BC = 8 cm, find AC (b) If AC = 13 cm, BC = 5 cm, find AB
Solution-
(a) If AB = 6 cm, BC = 8 cm
First we draw a figure of right triangle ABC
According to the Pythagoras theorem
we know that AC² = AB² + BC²
AC² = 6² + 8² = 36 + 64 = 100
AC = √100 = 10
Hence, AC is 10 cm.
(b) If AC = 13 cm, BC = 5 cm
According to the Pythagoras theorem
we know that AB² = AC² ー BC²
AB² =13² ー 5² = 169 ー 25 = 144
AB = √144 = 12
Hence, AB is 12 cm.
8. A gardener has 1000 plants. He wants to plant these in such a way that the number of rows and the number of columns remain same. Find the minimum number of plants he needs more for this.
Solution -
Let the number of rows = x.
And the number of columns = x.
Total number of plants = x × x = x2We know that 1000 is not a perfect square so we need to add sum more plant to make a perfect square.
Then,
1000 + y = x2
And we also know that the perfect square number just greater than 1000 is 1024.
So,
1000 + y = 1024
x2 = 1024
x = √1024
x = 32
And
1000 + y = 1024
y = 1024 - 1000 = 24
Hence, the minimum number of plants he needs more for this is 24.
9. There are 500 children in a school. For a P.T. drill they have to stand in such a manner that the number of rows is equal to number of columns. How many children would be left out in this arrangement.
Solution-
Let the number of children in a row = x.
And also that of in a column = x.
Total number of students = x × x = x2
We know that 500 is not a perfect square so we need to add sum more plant to make a perfect square.
Then,
1000 - y = x2
And we also know that the perfect square number just less than 500 is 484.
So,
500 - y = 484
x2 = 484
x = √484
x = 22
And
500 - y = 484
y = 500 - 484 = 16
Hence, to stand in such a manner that the number of rows is equal to number of columns. 16 children would be left out in this arrangement.
