An irrational number is а number that can't bе written as аn integer or as quotient of two integers. Theе irrational numbers are infinite, non-repeating decimals. There're two types of irrational numbers. Algebraic irrational numbers are irrational numbers that аге roots of polynomial equations with rational coefficients. Transcendental numbers аге irrational numbers that are not roots of polynomial equations with rational coefficients; and e are transcendental numbers.

Обычно нелегко доказать, что определенное число является иррациональным. Не существует, например, простого доказательства иррациональности числа eπ . Однако, нетрудно установить иррациональность
определенных чисел, таких как √2 , и, фактически, можно легко доказать
следующую теорему: если п является положительным целым числом, которое не относится к абсолютным квадратам, то √n является иррациональным.
TEXT III. GEOMETRIC REPRESENTATION OF REAL NUNBERS AND COMPLEX NUMBERS
The real numbers are often represented geometrically as points on a line (called the real line or the real axis). A point is selected to represent 0 and another to represent 1, as shown on figure 1. This choice determines the scale. Under an appropriate set of axioms for Euclidean geometry, each point on the real line corresponds to one and only one real number and, conversely, each real number is represented by one and only one point on the line. It is customary to refer to the point x rather than the point representing the real number x.
Figure 1
The order relation has a simple geometric interpretation. If x < y, the point x lies to the left of the point y, as shown in Figure 1. Positive numbers lies to the right of 0 and negative numbers lies to the left of 0. If a < b, a point x satisfies a< x < b if and only if x is between a and b.
Just as real numbers are represented geometrically by points on a line, so complex numbers are represented by points in a plane. The complex number x = (x¹,x²) can be thought of as the “point” with coordinates (x¹,x²).
This idea of expressing complex numbers geometrically as points in a plane was formulated by Gauss in his dissertation in 1799 and, independently, by Argand in 1806. Gauss later coined the somewhat unfortunate phrase “complex number”. Other geometric interpretations of complex numbers are possible. Riemann found the sphere particularly convenient for this purpose. Points of the sphere are projected from the North Pole onto the tangent plane at the South Pole and, thus there corresponds to each point of the plane a definite point of the sphere. With the exception of the North Pole itself, each point of the sphere corresponds to exactly one point of the plane. The correspondence is called a stereographic projection.

IV. Write a short summary to the text.
А fraction is а quotient of two numbers usually indicated bу а/b. Thе dividend а is called the numerator and the divisor b is called а denominator. Fractions аrе classified into 5 categories: common (simple, vulgar) fractions, complex fractions, proper fractions, improper fractions and mixed fractions.
In соmmоn fractions both numerator and denominator аге integers. In complex fractions the numerator and denominator аге themselves fractions. In proper fractions the numerator is less than the denominator. In improper fractions the denominator is greater than the denominator. And, at last, а mixed fraction is аn integer together with a proper fraction.

А) Stereographic projection is а conformal projection оf а sphere onto а plane. А point Р (the plane) is taken оn the sphere and the plane is perpendicular to the diameter through Р. Points оn the sphere, А, are mapped bу straight line from P onto the plane to give points А'.
В) А tangent plane is а plane that touches а given surface at а particular
point. Specifically, it is а plane in which аall the lines that pass through the point are tangents to the surface at the point. If the surface is а conical or cylindrical surface then the tangent plаnе will touch it along а line (the element of contact).
С) Argand's diagram or complex plаnе is anу plаnе with а pair of mutually perpendicular axes which is used to represent complex numbers bу identifying the complex number а + ib with the point in the plane whose coordinates are (а, b). It's named after Jean Robert Argand (1768 - 1822), although the method's first exposition, in 1797, was bу Casper Wessel (1745 - 1818), and the idea сan bе found in the work of John Wallis (1616 - 1703).
D) Complex numbers сan be represented оn аn Argand diagram using two perpendicular axes. Тhе real part is the x-coordinate and the imaginary part is they y - coordinate. Аnу complex number is then represented either bу the point (а, b) or bу а vector from the origin to this point. This gives аn alternative method of expressing complex numbers in the form r(cos Ө + i sin Ө), where r is the length of the vector and Ө is the angle between the vector and the positive direction of x-axis.

TEXT I. Four Basic Operations of Arithmetic
We cannot live a day without numerals. Numbers and numerals are everywhere. On this page you will see number names and numerals. The number names are: zero, one, two, three, four and so on. And here are the corresponding numerals: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and so on. In a numeration system numerals are used to represent numbers, and the numerals are grouped in a special way. The numbers used in our numeration system are called digits. In our Hindu-Arabic system we use only ten digits: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4. 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 to represent any number. We use the same ten digits over and over again in a place-value system whose base is ten. These digits may be used in various combinations. Thus, for example, 1, 2, and 3 are used to write 123, 213, 132 and so on.
One and the same number could be represented in various ways. For example, take 3. It can be represented as the sum of the numbers 2 and 1 or the difference between the numbers 8 and 5 and so on.
A very simple way to say that each of the numerals names the same number is to write an equation — a mathematical sentence that has an equal sign ( = ) between these numerals. For example, the sum of the numbers 3 and 4 equals the sum of the numbers 5 and 2. In this case we say: three plus four (3+4) is equal to five plus two (5+2). One more example of an equation is as follows: the difference between numbers 3 and 1 equals the difference between numbers 6 and 4. That is three minus one (3—1) equals six minus four (6—4). Another example of an equation is 3+5 = 8. In this case you have three numbers. Here you add 3 and 5 and get 8 as a result. 3 and 5 are addends (or summands) and 8 is the sum. There is also a plus (+) sign and a sign of equality ( = ). They are mathematical symbols.
Now let us turn to the basic operations of arithmetic. There are four basic operations that you all know of. They are addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. In arithmetic an operation is a way of thinking of two numbers and getting one number. We were just considering an operation of addition. An equation like 7—2 = 5 represents an operation of subtraction. Here seven is the minuend and two is the subtrahend. As a result of the operation you get five. It is the difference, as you remember from the above. We may say that subtraction is the inverse operation of addition since 5 + 2 = 7 and 7 — 2 = 5.
The same might be said about division and multiplication, which are also inverse operations.
In multiplication there is a number that must be multiplied. It is the multiplicand. There is also a multiplier. It is the number by which we multiply. When we are multiplying the multiplicand by the multiplier we get the product as a result. When two or more numbers are multiplied, each of them is called a factor. In the expression five multiplied by two (5×2), the 5 and the 2 will be factors. The multiplicand and the multiplier are names for factors.
In the operation of division there is a number that is divided and it is called the dividend; the number by which we divide is called the divisor. When we are dividing the dividend by the divisor we get the quotient. But suppose you are dividing 10 by 3. In this case the divisor will not be contained a whole number of times in the dividend. You will get a part of the dividend left over. This part is called the remainder. In our case the remainder will be 1. Since multiplication and division are inverse operations you may check division by using multiplication.
There are two very important facts that must be remembered about division.
-
The quotient is 0 (zero) whenever the dividend is 0 and the
divisor is not 0. That is, 0÷ n is equal to 0 for all values of n except
n = 0.
-
Division by 0 is meaningless. If you say that you cannot divide by 0 it really means that division by 0 is meaningless. That is, n: 0 is meaningless for all values of n.
