Compare & Order Rational Numbers Rational numbers are numbers that can be written as the ratio of two integers where zero is not the denominator. Rational Numbers are in various forms: integers, percents, and positive and negative fractions and decimals In order to compare rational numbers, rewrite all numbers so that they are in the same form: Either all decimals or all fractions with a common denominator

Compare & Order Rational Numbers To compare two positive fractions, find equivalent fractions that have a common denominator. Then compare the numerators to determine which fraction was smaller. To compare a positive fraction and a positive decimal, find equivalent decimal for the fraction and then compare the digits in the two decimals that have the same place value. To compare two negative fractions, find equivalent fractions that have a common denominator. Then compare the numerators; whichever numerator is closer to zero is the largest fraction.

Irrational Numbers Irrational numbers are numbers that cannot be written as the ratio of two integers. Examples π; √2 Square Root of a given number is a number that when multiplied by itself equals the given number. Example √16 = 4 The side length of a square is the square root of the area of the square.

Irrational Numbers To estimate the value of an irrational number such as √6 Determine between which 2 consecutive numbers √6 would be located on a number line. √6 would be located between 2 and 3 since 22 is 4 and 32 is 9. 6 is closer to 4 than it is to 9; so √6 will be less than halfway (2.5). A good estimate would for √6 would be 2.4 You can check the estimate by squaring it. 2.42 is 5.76 which is close to 6.

In a right triangle , the two shortest sides are legs. Pythagorean Theorem In a right triangle , the two shortest sides are legs. The longest side, which is opposite the right angle, is the hypotenuse. legs hypotenuse The Pythagorean Theorem shows how the legs and hypotenuse of a right triangle are related.

Pythagorean Theorem In words: In a right angled triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the square of the lengths of the legs. In Symbols: a2 +b2 = c2 . a b c If we know the lengths of two sides of a right angled triangle, then Pythagoras' Theorem allows us to find the length of the third side.

Using the Pythagorean theorem, we find that The converse of Pythagorean Theorem allows you to substitute the lengths of the sides of a triangle into the equation : c2 = a2 +b2 to check whether a triangle is a right triangle, if the Pythagorean equation is true the triangle is a right triangle. 30-60-90 Triangle 30º 60º 2s A B s √3s Using the Pythagorean theorem, we find that hypotenuse = 2 . shorter leg longer leg = shorter leg . √3 C

The number 123,000,000,000 in scientific notation is written as : Scientists have developed a shorter method to express very large numbers. This method is called scientific notation. Scientific Notation is based on powers of the base number 10. The number 123,000,000,000 in scientific notation is written as : 1.23 ×1011 The first number 1.23 is called the coefficient. It must be greater than or equal to 1 and less than 10. The second number is called the base. It must always be 10 in scientific notation. The base number 10 is always written in exponent form. In the number 1.23 x 1011 the number 11 is referred to as the exponent or power of ten.

Exponents The "exponent" stands for how many times the thing is being multiplied. The thing that's being multiplied is called the "base". This process of using exponents is called "raising to a power", where the exponent is the "power". "53" is "five, raised to the third power". Example 1: 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 25 i.e., 2 raised to the fifth power Exponential notation is an easier way to write a number as a product of many factors.

Write 103, 36, and 18 in factor form and in standard form. Exponential Form Factor Standard 103 10 × 10 × 10 1,000 36 3 ×3 ×3 × 3 × 3 ×3 729 18 1 ×1 × 1 ×1 × 1 × 1 × 1 × 1 1 Whole numbers can be expressed in standard form, in factor form and in exponential form. Exponential notation makes it easier to write a number as a factor repeatedly. A number written in exponential form is a base raised to an exponent. The exponent tells us how many times the base is used as a factor.

If a negative number is raised to an even power, the result will be positive. (-2)4 = - 2 × - 2 × - 2 × - 2 = 16 If a negative number is raised to an odd power, the result will be negative. (-2)5 = - 2 × - 2 × - 2 × - 2 × - 2 = -32 The negative number must be enclosed by parentheses to have the exponent apply to the negative term. Note that (-2)4 = - 2 × - 2 × - 2 × - 2 = 16 and -24 = -(2 × 2 × 2 × 2) = -16

Decimal point moves 4 places to the left. Write in scientific notation: 35,800 Place the decimal point between the first two non-zero numbers, 3 and 5. Since the 3 was in the ten-thousands place, the power of 10 is 104. The number in the scientific notation is 3.58 × 104. To change the number from scientific notation into standard notation, you can also count the number of times the decimal point moved to determine the power of 10. 35,800 = 3 5 8 0 0 = 3.58 × 104 Decimal point moves 4 places to the left.

Decimal point moves 3 places to the right. Write in scientific notation: 0.0079 0.0079 = 0. 0 0 7 9 = 7.9 × 10-3 Decimal point moves 3 places to the right. To change the number from scientific notation into standard notation, begin with place value indicated by the power of 10. Add zeroes as place holders when necessary.

The surface area of a rectangular solid is expressed in square units. The surface area of a solid figure is the sum of the areas of all faces of the figure. An area of study closely related to solid geometry is nets of a solid. Imagine making cuts along some edges of a solid and opening it up to form a plane figure. The plane figure is called the net of the solid. The surface area of a rectangular solid is expressed in square units.

Surface Area of solid figures In general, Surface Area of solid figures = 2 x area of the base +perimeter of the base x height If, B = area of the base P = perimeter of the base h = height SA = Surface Area Then, SA = 2B +Ph
