Key Topics to Revise

1

Types of Numbers

  • Natural Numbers (N): 1, 2, 3, 4, ... (counting numbers)
  • Whole Numbers (W): 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, ... (natural numbers including zero)
  • Integers (Z): ..., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ... (positive and negative whole numbers)
2

Decimal Representations

  • Terminating decimals: Decimal expansion ends after finite digits (e.g., 0.25, 0.375)
  • Non-terminating recurring decimals: Decimal expansion continues indefinitely with repeating pattern (e.g., 0.333..., 1.272727...)
  • Non-terminating non-recurring decimals: Decimal expansion continues indefinitely without repeating pattern (irrational numbers)
3

Representation on Number Line

  • Every real number can be represented as a point on the number line
  • Square roots of non-perfect squares are irrational and can be located using geometric construction
  • Pythagoras theorem is used to construct square roots on number line
4

Finding Rational and Irrational Numbers

  • Between any two rational numbers, there exist infinitely many rational numbers
  • Between any two rational numbers, there exist infinitely many irrational numbers
  • Method 1 for finding rational numbers: Use (a+b)/2 repeatedly
