1.1 REAL NUMBERS

Learning Outcomes:

To define and understand natural numbers, whole numbers, integers, prime numbers, rational numbers and irrational numbers.

To represent rational and irrational numbers in

decimal form.

To represent the relationship of number sets in a real number system diagrammatically.

1.1 REAL NUMBERS

Natural numbers, N = {1, 2, 3, 4, ...}


Counting things or objects.

Whole

numbers, W = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, ...}


Natural numbers together with 0.

Prime numbers = {2, 3, 5, 7, 11, }


Whole numbers that is only divisible by itself or 1 is called a prime number.

1.1 REAL NUMBERS

Integers,

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


The negative of natural numbers together with 0 and the natural number .

Positive

integers, Z+ = {1, 2, 3, ...}

Negative

integers, Z- = {-1, -2, -3, ...}

, 0}

For example: 1 2 7 , 3 , 5 , and many more. 2

Decimal representations of rational numbers are repeating or terminating.

Express the following decimals as fractions.


(a)

0.454545 = 0. 45

Solution:
Let = 0.454545 (1)

(1) 100:
(2) (1):

100 = 45.454545

1.1 REAL NUMBERS

Real Number Line/Basic operations on real


numbers/Properties of real numbers.

Learning Outcomes:

To state the properties of real numbers such as closure, commutative, associative, distributive, identity and inverse under addition and multiplication

11

1.1 REAL NUMBERS

Number Line

Real numbers can be represented geometrically by points on a straight line, called a real number line.

A point called the origin is chosen to represent 0. Points to the right of the origin represent positive numbers and points to the left represent negative

numbers.
12

1.1 REAL NUMBERS

Note: 1. Every point on the line represents one real number.

2. Every real number is represented by precisely one


point.
13

1.1 REAL NUMBERS

Basic operations on Real Numbers

Two real numbers can be combined by using the

operations of addition (+), subtraction (),


multiplication (), and division (). The result is

still a real number.

For example,

1 3 5 , 2 4 4

3.87 1.92 1.95

1.1 REAL NUMBERS

Intervals / Finite Intervals / Infinite Intervals / Union and Intersection


Learning Outcome:

To understand open, closed and half-open intervals and their representations on the number line. To understand that the endpoints of an open interval on the number line are usually represented as empty circles, whereas the endpoints of a closed interval are represented by dense circle. To simplify union and intersection of two or more intervals with the aid of a number line.
17

1.1 REAL NUMBERS

INTERVALS

Given two real numbers a and b, the possibilities are


a is equal to b, written as a = b a is greater than b, written as a > b a is less than b, written as a < b

18

1.1 REAL NUMBERS

19

1.1 REAL NUMBERS

FINITE INTERVALS

If a and b are real numbers such that a < b, then the set of all real numbers x satisfying

a < x < b is called the open interval from a to b a < x < b is called the closed interval from a to b a < x < b is called the half-open (or half-closed) interval from a to b

a < x < b is called the half-open interval from a to b


20

[a, b]

closed interval

[a, b)

Notes: Point a and b are called endpoints of the interval. Endpoint for open interval on the number line are represented as empty circle. Endpoint for close interval on the number line are represented as dense circle.

22

1.1 REAL NUMBERS

INFINITE INTERVAL
If a is a real number, then the set of all real numbers x satisfying the conditions : x<a x<a x>a x>a is called an infinite interval.

23

1.1 REAL NUMBERS

INFINITE INTERVAL (CONT...)

There are 4 possible "infinite ends":

24

1.1 REAL NUMBERS

UNION AND INTERSECTION

The union of sets A and B denoted by is the set of all elements which belong to A or to B.

The intersection of two sets A and B denoted by


is the set of elements which belong to both A and B.

square of any real number is a positive

number.

To

find this value, there should be a number

such that = -1
Is it possible??

1.2 COMPLEX NUMBERS

Clearly

there is no real number that satisfies

this equation.
Therefore

1 is not a real number. It is an

imaginary number which is denoted by i.
