A terminating decimal number is one whose decimal representation ends after a final number of digits. A non-terminating decimal number is one whose decimal representation goes on forever. It could be in the form of a number-string that repeats infinitely, for example, 2/11 = 0.18181818.... or one in which there is no pattern (all Irrational Numbers).
Analogous definitions apply to numbers expressed in other bases.
They are real numbers. All irrational numbers are non-terminating. Also, any rational numbers which, in its simplest form has a denominator which contains a factor other than 2 or 5 (or their powers) is non-terminating.
Not only non-terminating, but also non-repeating. 0.333... recurring is non-terminating but it is rational. In fact, most rational numbers are non-terminating decimals.

Yes.
No. Rational numbers are either terminating decimals or non-terminating BUT recurrent decimals.
Terminating numbers are decimal representations of rational numbers. Nonterminating numbers may or may not be rational numbers.

If they are non-terminating and there is a repeating pattern, then they are rational. If they are non-terminating and there is no repeating pattern, as in pi, they are irrational.
a non terminating number means "it does not end" or it has "no end"......:D
Irrational numbers.
All irrational numbers have decimal representations which are non-terminating.
Irrational Numbers.
Yes.
Yes. Any terminating number is rational. (But some non-terminating numbers are rational too, like 1/3, 1/7, 1/9, etc.
