Tamilnadu Samacheer Kalvi 9th Maths Solutions Chapter 3 Algebra Ex 3.9

Question 1.
Find the GCD for the following:
(i) P⁵, P¹¹, P³
Solution:
p⁵ = p⁵
p¹¹ = p¹¹
P⁹ = P⁹
G.C.D. is p⁵ (Highest common power is 5)

(ii) 4x³, y³, z³
Solution:
4x³ = 2 × 2 × x³
y³ = y³
z³ = z³
G.C.D. of 4x³, y³ and z³ = 1

(iii) 9a²b²c³, 15a³b²c⁴
Solution:
9a²b²c³ = 3 × 3 × a² × b² × c³
15a³b²c³ = 3 × 5 × a³ × b² × c⁴
G.C.D = 3 × a² × b² × c³
= 3a²b²c³

(iv) 64x⁸, 240x⁶
Solution:
64x⁸ = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × x⁸
= 2⁶ × x⁸

240x⁶ = 2⁴ × 3 × 5 × x⁶
G.C.D = 2⁴ × x⁶
= 16x⁶

(v) ab²c³, a²b³c, a³ac²
Solution:
ab²c³ = a × b² × c³
a²b³c = a² × b³ × c
a³bc² = a³ × b × c²
G.C.D. = abc

(vi) 35x⁵y³z⁴, 49x²yz³, 14xy²z²
Solution:
35x⁵y³z⁴ = 5 × 7 × x⁵ × y³ × z⁴
49x²yz³ = 7 × 7 × x² × z³
14xy²z² = 2 × 7 × x × y² × z²
G.C.D. = 7 × x × y × z²
= 7xyz²

(vii) 25ab³c, 100a²bc, 125 ab
Solution:
25ab³c = 5 × 5 × a × b³ × c
100a²be = 2 × 2 × 5 × 5 × a² × b × c
125ab = 5 × 5 × 5 × a × b
G.C.D. = 5 × 5 × a × b
= 25ab

(viii) 3abc, 5xyz, 7pqr
Solution:
3abc = 3 × a × b × c
5xyz = 5 × x × y × z
7pqr = 7 × p × q × r
G.C.D. = 1

Question 2.
Find the GCD for the following:
(i) (2x + 5), (5x + 2)
(ii) a^m+1, a^m+2, a^m+3
(iii) 2a² + a, 4a² – 1
(iv) 3a², 5b³, 7c⁴
(v) x⁴ – 1, x² – 1
(vi) a³ – 9ax², (a – 3x)²
Solution:
(i) (2x + 5) = 2x + 5
5x + 2 = 5x + 2
G.C.D. = 1

(ii) a^m+1 = a^m × a¹
a^m+2 = a^m × a²
a^m+3 = a^m × a³
G.C.D.= a^m × a
= a^m+1

(iii) 2a² + a = a(2a + 1)
4a² – 1 = (2a)2 – 1
(Using a² – b² = (a + b)(a – b)
= (2a + 1)(2a – 1)
G.C.D. = 2a + 1

(iv) 3a² = 3 × a²
5b³ = 5 × b³
7c⁴ = 7 × c⁴
G.C.D. = 1

(v) x⁴ – 1 = (x²)² – 1
= (x² + 1 ) (x² – 1)
= (x² + 1 ) (x + 1 ) (x – 1 )
x² – 1 = (x + 1 ) (x – 1 )
G.C.D. = (x + 1 ) (x – 1 )

(vi) a³ – 9ax² = a(a² – 9x²)
= a[a² – (3x)²]
= a(a + 3x)(a – 3x)
(a – 3x)² = (a – 3x)²
G.C.D. = a – 3x
