Answer :
(i) Listen to me, Ravi!
It is an exclamatory sentence. Therefore, it is not a statement.
(ii) Every set is a finite set.
It is a false assertive sentence because there are some sets that are infinite like the set of all real numbers. Therefore, it is a statement.
(iii) Two non-empty sets have always a non-empty intersection.
It is a false assertive sentence. Two non-empty sets with no common elements can have an empty intersection. Therefore, it is a statement.
(iv) The pussy cat is black.
It is a declarative sentence, which may be true or false but cannot be both at the same time, so it is a statement.
(v) Are all circles round?
It is an interrogative sentence, so it is not a statement.
(vi) All triangles have three sides.
It is a true declarative sentence because a figure that has three sides is a triangle. Thus, it is a true statement.
(vii) Every rhombus is a square.
It is not true that every rhombus is a square because some rhombi may have all angles other than 90. So, it is a false statement.
(viii) x2 + 5 | x | + 6 = 0 has no real roots.
It is a true declarative sentence, so it is a statement.
(ix) This sentence is a statement.
Without knowing the sentence, we cannot decide whether it is true or false. So, it is not a statement.

Answer :
(i) The component statements of the given compound statement are:
1) To enter into a public library, children need an identity card from the school.
2) To enter into a public library, children need a letter from the school authorities.
The compound statement is true because both component statements are true.
(ii) The component statements of the given compound statement are:
1) All rational numbers are real.
2) All real numbers are not complex.
The compound statement is false because all real numbers are complex. The connective used is “and”. So, even if one component statement is false, the compound statement is false.
(iii) The component statements of the given compound statement are:
1) Square of an integer is positive.
2) Square of an integer is negative.
The compound statement is true because the first statement is true. Since the connective used is “or” and one of the component statements is true, the compound statement is true.
(iv) The component statements of the given compound statement are:
1) x=2 is the root or the equation 3×2-x-10=0.
2) x=3 is the root or the equation 3×2-x-10=0.
The connective used is “and”. So, both component statements must be true for the compound statement to be true. The statement “x=3 is the root or the equation 3×2-x-10=0” is false. Therefore, the compound statement is false.
(v) The component statements of the given compound statement are:
1) The sand heats up quickly in the sun.
2) Sand does not cool down fast at night.
The compound statement uses “and” as the connective. For the compound statement to be true, both the component statements must be true. The second component statement “Sand does not cool down fast at night” is false. Sand cools down fast at night. Therefore, the compound statement is false.
Q4.

Q1.
Answer :
(i) p: 100 is a multiple of 4 and 5.
Since 100 is a multiple of 4 and 5, the statement is true.
Hence, it is a valid statement.
(ii) q: 125 is a multiple of 5 and 7.
Since 125 is a multiple of 5 but is not a multiple of 7, the statement is not true.
Hence, it is not a valid statement.
(iii) r: 60 is a multiple of 3 or 5.
Since 60 is a multiple of 3 and 5, the statement is true.
Hence, it is a valid statement.
Q2.
Answer :
(i) p: If x and y are odd integers, then x + y is an even integer.
Let q and r be two statements.
Here,
q: x and y are odd integers.
r: x + y is an even integer.
Let q be true.
Then, q is true.
Now,
x and y are odd integers.
x = 2m +1 and y = 2n + 1 for some integers m and n.
⇒x + y = (2m + 1) + (2n + 1)
⇒x + y = 2m + 2n + 2 = 2(m + n + 1)
So, x + y is an even integer.
Hence, the statement is true.
ii) p: If x and y are integers such that xy is even, then at least one of x and y is an even integer.
Let q and r be two statements.
Here,
q: xy is an even integer.
r: At least one of x and y is an even integer.
Let r be not true.
Then, r is not true.
It is false that at least one of x and y is an even integer.
Now,
x and y are odd integers.
x = 2m +1 and y = 2n + 1 for some integers m and n.
⇒xy =(2m + 1)(2n + 1)
⇒xy = 2(2mn + m + n) + 1
So, xy is not an even integer. Thus, xy is not true.
Hence, the statement is true.
Q3.
Answer :
p : “If x is a real number such thatx3 + x = 0then x is 0”.
Let q and r be the statements.
Here,
q: x is a real number such that x3 + x = 0.
r: x is 0.
(i) Direct method
Let q be true.
To obtain x3 + x = 0we have:
x(x2+1) = 0
or, x = 0
Thus, r is true.
Hence, “if q, then r” is a true statement.
(ii) Method of contrapositive
Let r not be true.
r is not 0.
If x(x2+1) ≠0, then q is not true.
Hence, “if ~q, then ~r” is a true statement.
(iii) Method of contradiction
Let q not be true.
Then,
~q is true
~(q ⇒r) is true.
q &~r is true
x is a real number such that x3+x=0
Then, x is not 0.
x = 0 and x≠0
This is a contradiction.
Hence, q is true.
Q4.
Answer :
Let q and r be statements.
Here,
q: If x is an integer and x2 is odd.
r: x is also odd.
Then, p is” if q, then r”.
Let r be false.
So, x is not an odd integer, i.e., x is an even integer.
Let:
x = 2n for some integer n
or, x2=4n2
In other words, x2 is an even integer.
Now, q is false.
Thus, r is false; this implies q is false.
Hence, p is a true statement.
Q5.
Answer :
The given statement can be rewritten as:
“The necessary and sufficient condition for integer n to be even is n2 must be even”.
Let p and q be the following statements.
p: The integer n is even.
q: n2 is even.
The given statement is “p if and only if q”.
To check its validity, we have to check the validity of the following statements:
(i) If p, then q.
(ii) If q, then p.
Checking the validity of “if p, then q”
“If the integer n is even, then n2 is even.”
Let us assume that n is even.
Then, n=2m, where m is an integer.
Thus, we have:
n2=4m2
Here, n2 is even.
Therefore, “if p, then q” is true.
The statement “if q, then p” is given by
“If n is an integer and n2 is even, then n is even”.
To check he validity of the statement, we will use the contrapositive method. So, let n be an integer. Then,
n is odd.
Here, n=2k+1 for some integer k.
⇒n2=4k2+2k+1
Then, n2 is an odd integer.
n2 is not an even integer.
Thus “if q, then p” and “p if and only if q” are true.
Q6.
Answer :
The given statement is of the form “if q, then r”.
q: All the angles of a triangle are equal.
r: The triangle is an obtuse-angled triangle.
Statement p has to be proved false.
For this purpose, we need to prove that if q, then ~r.
To show this, none of the angles of the triangle should be obtuse.
We know that the sum of all angles of a triangle is 180°. Therefore, if all three angles are equal, then each of them will measure 60°, which is not an obtuse angle.
In an equilateral triangle, the measure of all angles is equal. Thus, the triangle is not an obtuse-angled triangle.
Hence, it can be concluded that statement p is false.
Q7.
Answer :
(i) The given statement is false.
According to the definition of a chord, it should intersect the circumference of a circle at two distinct points.
(ii) The given statement is false.
If a chord is not the diameter of a circle, then the centre does not bisect that chord. In other words, the centre of a circle only bisects the diameter, which is the chord of the circle.
(iii) Equation of an ellipse:
x2a2+y2b2=1
If we put a = b = 1, then we obtain x2+y2=1, which is an equation of a circle. Therefore, a circle is a particular case of an ellipse.
Thus, the statement is true.
(iv) x > y
⇒ –x < –y (By the rule of inequality)
Thus, the given statement is true.
(v) 11 is a prime number and we know that the square root of any prime number is an irrational number. Therefore, 11 is an irrational number.
Thus, the given statement is false.
Q8.
Answer :
The argument used to check the validity of the given statement is false because it is given in the argument that x2 = π 2 is irrational and therefore x = π is irrational; however, according to the statement, x is rational.
