Are repeating decimals rational or irrational numbers?
Repeating decimals are rational numbers if there is a pattern, like 0.22222222. If it is not a pattern, like 0.568964329, it is an irrational number.
The number pi goes on forever with no repeating pattern therefore its irrational?
Correct -
The number pi goes on forever with no repeating pattern therefore it is irrational. true or false?
True
A repeating decimal is an irrational number?
Actually, a repeating decimal is not necessarily an irrational number. A repeating decimal is a decimal number that has a repeating pattern of digits after the decimal point. While some repeating decimals can be irrational, such as 0.1010010001..., others can be rational, like 0.3333... which is equal to 1/3. Irrational numbers are numbers that cannot be expressed as a simple fraction, and they have non-repeating, non-terminating decimal representations.
Is irrational mean negative numbers?
No. An irrational number has a whole number, followed by a decimal, which has no repeating pattern to it. For example, Pi: 3.14159265358979...... it goes on forever, with no pattern. unlike 5 and one-third: 5.33333333333333.... it goes on forever, but there is a pattern to it. or 4.12121212121212
