Q. 18 Ans.
i. The converse is "If you feel thirsty , then it is hot outside."
ii. Assume that

11 is not irrational.

i.e., 11 is rational.
Then 11 =
11 =

p2
q2

p
, where p and q are int egers and hence no common factor.
q

p2 = 11q2 .......(1)

[1]

11 divides p
p is a multiple of 11
p = 11n for some int eger n.
(1) (11n)2 = 11q2 q2 = 11n2
11 divides q
Also we have shown that11 dividesp.
Hence 11 is a common factor for both p and qwhich contradicts our
assumption that p and q have no common factor.
Hence the statement
11 is irrational.

11 is not irrational is wrong.
