Questions Pg-68
Question 1.

Write number like this:



As in the calendar; mark four numbers in a square and find the difference of diagonal products. Is it the same for all squares of four numbers?


Answer:


Let us consider this green square.


Diagonal products are:


2×8 = 16


7×3 = 21


Difference = 21-16 = 5



Now let us consider this green square.


Diagonal products: 9× 15 = 135


14× 10 = 140


Difference = 140 – 135 = 5



Now consider this green square.


Diagonal products: 11× 17 = 187


16× 12 = 192


Difference = 192 – 187 = 5


So, we observe that in all the above cases the difference of diagonal products is coming out to be same and is equal to 5.



Question 2.

Write number like this:



As in the calendar; mark four numbers in a square and find the difference of diagonal products. Is it the same for all squares of four numbers?


Answer:


Let us consider this green square.


Diagonal products are:


2×8 = 16


7×3 = 21


Difference = 21-16 = 5



Now let us consider this green square.


Diagonal products: 9× 15 = 135


14× 10 = 140


Difference = 140 – 135 = 5



Now consider this green square.


Diagonal products: 11× 17 = 187


16× 12 = 192


Difference = 192 – 187 = 5


So, we observe that in all the above cases the difference of diagonal products is coming out to be same and is equal to 5.



Question 3.

Write number like this:



As in the calendar; mark four numbers in a square and find the difference of diagonal products. Is it the same for all squares of four numbers?


Answer:


Let us consider this green square.


Diagonal products are:


2×8 = 16


7×3 = 21


Difference = 21-16 = 5



Now let us consider this green square.


Diagonal products: 9× 15 = 135


14× 10 = 140


Difference = 140 – 135 = 5



Now consider this green square.


Diagonal products: 11× 17 = 187


16× 12 = 192


Difference = 192 – 187 = 5


So, we observe that in all the above cases the difference of diagonal products is coming out to be same and is equal to 5.



Question 4.

Write number like this:



Explain why this is so, using algebra.


Answer:

Let the first number in the square be x, the others can be filled in as below,


Diagonal products: x (x+6) = x2 + 6x


(x+5)(x+1) = x(x+1) + 5(x+1) = (x2 + x) + (5x +5) = x2 + 6x + 5


Clearly, the difference between the two diagonal products is always 5.



Question 5.

Write number like this:



Explain why this is so, using algebra.


Answer:

Let the first number in the square be x, the others can be filled in as below,


Diagonal products: x (x+6) = x2 + 6x


(x+5)(x+1) = x(x+1) + 5(x+1) = (x2 + x) + (5x +5) = x2 + 6x + 5


Clearly, the difference between the two diagonal products is always 5.



Question 6.

Write number like this:



Instead of a square of four numbers, take a square of nine numbers and mark only the numbers at the four corners.



What is the difference of diagonal products? Explain using algebra.


Answer:


Consider the green square and consider the four corner elements ( red circles)


Diagonal products: 1× 13 = 13


3× 11 = 33


Difference between diagonal products = 33 - 13 = 20



Now, consider this green square and consider the corner elements (red circles)


Diagonal products: 8× 20 = 160


18× 10 = 180


Difference between diagonal products = 180 – 160 = 20


So, we observe that the difference between diagonal products in the above cases is also coming out to be same and is equal to 20.


Explanation using Algebra,


Let the first number in the square be x, the others can be filled in as below,



Diagonal products: x (x+12) = x2 + 12x


(x+10)(x+2) = x(x+2) + 10(x+2) = (x2 + 2x) + (10x+ 20)


= x2 + 12x + 20


Clearly, we can observe that the difference between diagonal products is always equal to 20.



Question 7.

Write number like this:



Instead of a square of four numbers, take a square of nine numbers and mark only the numbers at the four corners.



What is the difference of diagonal products? Explain using algebra.


Answer:


Consider the green square and consider the four corner elements ( red circles)


Diagonal products: 1× 13 = 13


3× 11 = 33


Difference between diagonal products = 33 - 13 = 20



Now, consider this green square and consider the corner elements (red circles)


Diagonal products: 8× 20 = 160


18× 10 = 180


Difference between diagonal products = 180 – 160 = 20


So, we observe that the difference between diagonal products in the above cases is also coming out to be same and is equal to 20.


Explanation using Algebra,


Let the first number in the square be x, the others can be filled in as below,



Diagonal products: x (x+12) = x2 + 12x


(x+10)(x+2) = x(x+2) + 10(x+2) = (x2 + 2x) + (10x+ 20)


= x2 + 12x + 20


Clearly, we can observe that the difference between diagonal products is always equal to 20.



Question 8.

In the multiplication table made earlier, take a square of nine numbers, instead of four, and mark the numbers at the four corners:



What is the difference of diagonal sums?


Answer:

MULTIPLICATION TABLE


In this part, we are considering this red square of a multiplication table.


Diagonal sums: 6+20 = 26


10+12 = 22


Difference between diagonal sums = 26 – 22 = 4



Question 9.

In the multiplication table made earlier, take a square of nine numbers, instead of four, and mark the numbers at the four corners:



What is the difference of diagonal sums?


Answer:

MULTIPLICATION TABLE


In this part, we are considering this red square of a multiplication table.


Diagonal sums: 6+20 = 26


10+12 = 22


Difference between diagonal sums = 26 – 22 = 4



Question 10.

In the multiplication table made earlier, take a square of nine numbers, instead of four, and mark the numbers at the four corners:



Explain using algebra, why this difference is the same for all such squares.


Answer:

we can write a row of multiplication table as

x 2x 3x 4x 5x 6x 7x 8x 9x


Next row will be:


(x+1) 2(x+1) 3(x+1) 4(x+1) 5(x+1) 6(x+1) 7(x+1) 8(x+1) 9(x+1)


If we take a general number from the first row as yx then the next number in this row will be (y+1)x.


So, we can obtain a general square of 9 terms from this multiplication table as:



Diagonal sums: (yx)+(y+2)(x+2) = yx+y(x+2)+2(x+2) = yx + yx + 2y +2x +4


= 2yx +2y +2x +4


Y(x+2)+ (y+2)x = (yx +2y)+(yx + 2x) = 2yx +2y +2x


Clearly, the difference between diagonal sums is equal to 4.



Question 11.

In the multiplication table made earlier, take a square of nine numbers, instead of four, and mark the numbers at the four corners:



Explain using algebra, why this difference is the same for all such squares.


Answer:

we can write a row of multiplication table as

x 2x 3x 4x 5x 6x 7x 8x 9x


Next row will be:


(x+1) 2(x+1) 3(x+1) 4(x+1) 5(x+1) 6(x+1) 7(x+1) 8(x+1) 9(x+1)


If we take a general number from the first row as yx then the next number in this row will be (y+1)x.


So, we can obtain a general square of 9 terms from this multiplication table as:



Diagonal sums: (yx)+(y+2)(x+2) = yx+y(x+2)+2(x+2) = yx + yx + 2y +2x +4


= 2yx +2y +2x +4


Y(x+2)+ (y+2)x = (yx +2y)+(yx + 2x) = 2yx +2y +2x


Clearly, the difference between diagonal sums is equal to 4.



Question 12.

In the multiplication table made earlier, take a square of nine numbers, instead of four, and mark the numbers at the four corners:



What if we take a square of sixteen numbers?


Answer:

Now, if we take a square of 16 numbers, then the general terms will be:


Diagonal sums: yx + (y+3)(x+3) = yx + y(x+3) + 3(x+3) = yx +yx +3y +3x +9 = 2yx +3y+3x+9


Y(x+3) + (y+3)x = yx +3y + yx +3x = 2yx + 3y + 3x


Clearly, the difference between the diagonal sums is equal to 9.



Question 13.

In the multiplication table made earlier, take a square of nine numbers, instead of four, and mark the numbers at the four corners:



What if we take a square of sixteen numbers?


Answer:

Now, if we take a square of 16 numbers, then the general terms will be:


Diagonal sums: yx + (y+3)(x+3) = yx + y(x+3) + 3(x+3) = yx +yx +3y +3x +9 = 2yx +3y+3x+9


Y(x+3) + (y+3)x = yx +3y + yx +3x = 2yx + 3y + 3x


Clearly, the difference between the diagonal sums is equal to 9.



Question 14.

Look at these:

1 × 4 = (2 × 3) – 2

2 × 5 = (3 × 4) – 2

3 × 6 = (4 × 5) – 2

4 × 7 = (5 × 6) – 2

i) Write the next two lines in this pattern.

ii) If we take four consecutive natural numbers, what is the relation between the products of the first and the last, and the product of the middle two?

iii) Write this as a general principle in algebra and explain it.


Answer:

i) 5× 8 = (6× 7) – 2

6× 9 = (7× 8) – 2


ii) The above pattern is based on this statement only.


Let the four consecutive numbers be 1,2,3,4.


Product of first and last = (1× 4) = 4


Product of middle two terms = (2× 3) = 6


and 4 = 6 - 2


Let the four consecutive numbers be 4,5,6,7.


Product of first and last = (4× 7) = 28


Product of middle two terms = (5× 6) = 30


And 28 = 30 - 2


iii) General principle,


Let the four consecutive natural numbers be x , (x+1) , (x+2) , (x+3).


Product of first and last = x(x+3) = x2 + 3x


Product of middle two terms = (x+1)(x+2) = x(x+2) + 1(x+2)


= x2 + 2x + x + 2


= x2 + 3x + 2


Clearly, we can see that the difference between the product of middle two terms and the product of first and last term is equal to 2.



Question 15.

Look at these:

1 × 4 = (2 × 3) – 2

2 × 5 = (3 × 4) – 2

3 × 6 = (4 × 5) – 2

4 × 7 = (5 × 6) – 2

i) Write the next two lines in this pattern.

ii) If we take four consecutive natural numbers, what is the relation between the products of the first and the last, and the product of the middle two?

iii) Write this as a general principle in algebra and explain it.


Answer:

i) 5× 8 = (6× 7) – 2

6× 9 = (7× 8) – 2


ii) The above pattern is based on this statement only.


Let the four consecutive numbers be 1,2,3,4.


Product of first and last = (1× 4) = 4


Product of middle two terms = (2× 3) = 6


and 4 = 6 - 2


Let the four consecutive numbers be 4,5,6,7.


Product of first and last = (4× 7) = 28


Product of middle two terms = (5× 6) = 30


And 28 = 30 - 2


iii) General principle,


Let the four consecutive natural numbers be x , (x+1) , (x+2) , (x+3).


Product of first and last = x(x+3) = x2 + 3x


Product of middle two terms = (x+1)(x+2) = x(x+2) + 1(x+2)


= x2 + 2x + x + 2


= x2 + 3x + 2


Clearly, we can see that the difference between the product of middle two terms and the product of first and last term is equal to 2.



Question 16.

Shown below is a method to the product 46× 28.



i) Check this method for some other two-digit numbers.

ii) Explain why this is correct, using algebra. (Recall that any two-digit number can be written 10m + n, as seen in the section, Two-digit numbers of the lesson, Numbers and Algebra, in the class 7 textbook).


Answer:

i)



ii) We know that we can express any 2-digit number as 10m+n , where m is the digit at tens place and n is the digit at ones place.


So, let (10m+n) and (10x+y) be the two numbers to be multiplied.


(10m+n)(10x+y) = 10m(10x+y)+n(10x+y) = 100 mx +10my +10nx + ny


= (100× mx) + ((m×y)+(n×x))× 10 +(n×y)


Now, carefully observe the above method, you will see that we were finding these terms only and then addition of these terms gives us the required product.



Question 17.

Shown below is a method to the product 46× 28.



i) Check this method for some other two-digit numbers.

ii) Explain why this is correct, using algebra. (Recall that any two-digit number can be written 10m + n, as seen in the section, Two-digit numbers of the lesson, Numbers and Algebra, in the class 7 textbook).


Answer:

i)



ii) We know that we can express any 2-digit number as 10m+n , where m is the digit at tens place and n is the digit at ones place.


So, let (10m+n) and (10x+y) be the two numbers to be multiplied.


(10m+n)(10x+y) = 10m(10x+y)+n(10x+y) = 100 mx +10my +10nx + ny


= (100× mx) + ((m×y)+(n×x))× 10 +(n×y)


Now, carefully observe the above method, you will see that we were finding these terms only and then addition of these terms gives us the required product.

Question 3.

Mark four numbers forming a square in a calendar:



Add the squares of the diagonal pair and find the difference of these sums:

42 + 122 = 160

112 + 52 = 146

160 – 146 = 14

Explain using algebra, why the difference is 14 always.


Answer:

Let’s use algebra to see this.

Taking the first number in the square as x, the others can be filled as below



the squares of diagonal are


x2 and (x+8)2


(x+7)2 and (x+1)2


Add the squares of the diagonal pair


x2 + (x+8)2


= x2 + (x2+82+2 [Using identity = + + 2]


= 2x2 + 64+16


Add the squares of the other diagonal pair


= (x+1)2+(x+7)2


= (x2 +1 +2 (x2+72+2


= (x2 +1 +2 (x2 +49 +14)


= 2x2 +16+ 50


find the difference of these sums:


= (2x2 + 64+16- (2x2 +16+ 50)


= 2x2 + 64+16- 2x2 -16- 50


= 64-50


= 14


Hence the difference is 14, we can take any number as x; which means this holds in any part of the calendar.

the squares of diagonal are


x2 and (x+8)2


(x+7)2 and (x+1)2


Add the squares of the diagonal pair


x2 + (x+8)2


= x2 + (x2+82+2 [Using identity = + + 2]


= 2x2 + 64+16


Add the squares of the other diagonal pair


= (x+1)2+(x+7)2


= (x2 +1 +2 (x2+72+2


= (x2 +1 +2 (x2 +49 +14)


= 2x2 +16+ 50


find the difference of these sums:


= (2x2 + 64+16- (2x2 +16+ 50)


= 2x2 + 64+16- 2x2 -16- 50


= 64-50


= 14


Hence the difference is 14, we can take any number as x; which means this holds in any part of the calendar.

The squares of diagonal are


x2 and (x+16)2


(x+14)2 and (x+2)2


Add the squares of the diagonal pair


= x2 + (x+16)2


= x2 +(x2+256+ 2 [Using identity = + + 2]


=2 x2 +256+ 32x


Add the squares of the other diagonal pair


= (x+14)2+(x+2)2


=(x2 +142 +2 (x2+22+2


= (x2 +196 +28 (x2 +4 +4)


= 2x2 +32+ 200


find the difference of these sums:


(2 x2 +256+ 32x) - ( 2x2 +32+ 200)


= 2 x2 +256+ 32x - 2x2 - 32- 200


= 256-200


= 56


Hence the difference is 56, we can take any number as x; which means this hold in any part of the calendar.

=(x2 +142 +2 (x2+22+2


= (x2 +196 +28 (x2 +4 +4)


= 2x2 +32+ 200


find the difference of these sums:


(2 x2 +256+ 32x) - ( 2x2 +32+ 200)


= 2 x2 +256+ 32x - 2x2 - 32- 200


= 256-200
