Rationalise the denominators of the following:
(i) \(\frac{1 }{ \sqrt{7 }}\)
(ii) \(\frac{1 }{ \sqrt{7 }-\sqrt6}\)
(iii) \(\frac{1 }{ \sqrt{5}+\sqrt2}\)
(iv) \(\frac{1 }{ \sqrt{7}-2}\)
(i) \(\frac{1 }{ \sqrt{7 }}\) =\(\frac{1}{\sqrt7}=\frac{1}{\sqrt7} ×\frac{ √7 }{√7}\)
= \(\frac{ √7 }{√7}\)
(ii) \(\frac{1 }{ \sqrt{7 }-\sqrt6}\)
\(= \frac{1}{ (√7 + √6)} ×\frac{(√7 - √6)}{(√7 + √6)}\)
= \(\frac{(√7 - √6)}{7 - 6}=\sqrt7+\sqrt6\)
(iii) \(\frac{1 }{ \sqrt{7}-2}\)
\(\frac{\sqrt5+\sqrt2}{3}\)
(iv) \(\frac{1 }{ \sqrt{7}-2}\)
\(=\frac{\sqrt7+2}{7-2}=\frac{\sqrt7+2}{3}\)
For real number a, b (a > b > 0), let
\(\text{{Area}} \left\{ (x, y) : x^2 + y^2 \leq a^2 \text{{ and }} \frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} \geq 1 \right\} = 30\pi\)
and
\(\text{{Area}} \left\{ (x, y) : x^2 + y^2 \geq b^2 \text{{ and }} \frac{x^2}{a^2} + \frac{y^2}{b^2} \leq 1 \right\} = 18\pi\)
Then the value of (a – b)2 is equal to _____.

(Street Plan) : A city has two main roads which cross each other at the centre of the city. These two roads are along the North-South direction and East-West direction.
All the other streets of the city run parallel to these roads and are 200 m apart. There are 5 streets in each direction. Using 1cm = 200 m, draw a model of the city on your notebook. Represent the roads/streets by single lines. There are many cross- streets in your model. A particular cross-street is made by two streets, one running in the North - South direction and another in the East - West direction. Each cross street is referred to in the following manner : If the 2nd street running in the North - South direction and 5th in the East - West direction meet at some crossing, then we will call this cross-street (2, 5). Using this convention, find:
(i) how many cross - streets can be referred to as (4, 3).
(ii) how many cross - streets can be referred to as (3, 4).
