25. Prove that 3 is an irrational number.

OR

Find L.C.M. of H.C.F. ( 306, 657 ) and 12.

Ans. :

Let us assume, to the contrary that 3 is rational.

a
We can find integers a and b ( b ≠ 0 ) such that 3 = ½
b

Suppose a and b have a common factor other than 1, then we can

divide by the common factor and assume that a and b are co-prime.
So, b 3 = a ½
Squaring on both sides, and rearranging we get 3b 2 = a 2

∴ a 2 is devisible by 3

∴ a is also devisible by 3

∴ a = 3c c is integer ½
Substituting for a, we get

3b 2 = 9c 2

i.e. b 2 = 3c 2 ½

Means b 2 is devisible by 3

∴ b is also devisible by 3

∴ a and b have at least 3 as a common factor. ½

But this contradicts the fact that a and b are co-prime

This contradiction has arisen because of our incorrect assumption

that 3 is rational. ½ 3

So, we conclude that 3 is rational.

31. Prove that “the lengths of tangents drawn from an external point to a
circle are equal”.
Ans. :

½
Data : O is the centre of the circle P is an external point
PQ and PR are the tangents ½
To prove : PQ = PR ½
Construction : OQ, OR and OP are joined ½
Proof : In Δ POQ and Δ POR
PQO = PRO ( Radius drawn at the point of

contact is perpendicular to the tangent )

hyp OP = hyp OP ( Common side )
OQ = OR ( Radii of same circle )

∴ Δ POQ ≅ Δ POR ( R.H.S. theorem ) ½

∴ PQ = PR ½ 3

Alternate method :

Proof : We are given a circle with centre O, a point P lying

outside the circle and two tangents PQ and PR on the circle

from P. ½

We are required to prove that PQ = PR ½

For this we join OP, OQ and OR.

Then OQP and ORP are right angles because these are

angles between the radii and tangents. ½

Now right angles OQP = ORP

OQ = OR ( Radii ) ½

OP = OP ( Common side )

∴ Δ OQP ≅ Δ ORP ( R.H.S. )

This gives PQ = PR. ½ 3
