1. Straight Squaring:We have already noticed methods useful to find out squares of numbers. But the methods are useful under some situations and conditions only. Now we go to a more general formula. The sutra Dwandwa-yoga (Duplex combination process) is used in two different meanings. They are i) by squaring ii) by cross-multiplying. We use both the meanings of Dwandwa-yoga in the context of finding squares of numbers as follows: We denote the Duplex of a number by the symbol D. We define for a single digit ‘a’, D =a2. and for a two digit number of the form ‘ab’, D =2( a x b ). If it is a 3 digit number like ‘abc’, D =2( a x c ) + b2. For a 4 digit number ‘abcd’, D = 2( a x d ) + 2( b x c ) and so on. i.e. if the digit is single central digit, D represents ‘square’: and for the case of an even number of digits equidistant from the two ends D represent the double of the cross- product. Consider the examples:
Examples:1 622 Since number of digits = 2, we take one extra dot to the left. Thus .62 for 2, D = 22 = 4 ____ 644 for 62, D = 2 x 6 x 2 = 24 32 for 62, D = 2(0 x 2) + 62 _____ = 36 3844 ![]() Examples:2 2342 Number of digits = 3. extradots =2 Thus ..234 for 4, D = 42 = 16 _____ 42546 for 34, D = 2 x 3 x 4 = 24 1221 for 234, D = 2 x 2 x 4 + 32 = 25 _____ 54756 for .234, D = 2.0.4 + 2.2.3 = 12 for ..234, D = 2.0.4 + 2.0.3 + 22 = 4 Examples:3 14262. Number of digits = 4, extra dots = 3 i.e ...1426 6, D = 36 ________ 1808246 26, D = 2.2.6 = 24 22523 426, D = 2.4.6 + 22 = 52 _________ 2033476 1426, D = 2.1.6 + 2.4.2 = 28 .1426, D = 2.0.6 + 2.1.2 + 42 = 20 ..1426, D = 2.0.6 + 2.0.2 + 2.1.4 = 8 ...1426, D = 12 = 1 Thus 14262 = 2033476. With a little bit of practice the results can be obtained mentally as a single line answer. Algebraic Proof: Consider the first example 622 Now 622 = (6 x 10 + 2)2 = (10a + b)2 where a = 6, b = 2 = 100a2 + 2.10a.b + b2 = a2 (100) + 2ab (10) + b2 i.e. b2 in the unit place, 2ab in the 10th place and a2 in the 100th place i.e. 22 = 4 in units place, 2.6.2 = 24 in the 10th place (4 in the 10th place and with carried over to 100th place). 62=36 in the 100th place and with carried over 2 the 100th place becomes 36+2=38. Thus the answer 3844. Applying the Vedic sutra Dwanda yoga. Take a two digit number say 14.
i) Find the ratio of the two digits i.e. 1:4
Example 1: Find 183ii) Now write the cube of the first digit of the number i.e. 13 iii) Now write numbers in a row of 4 terms in such a way that the first one is the cube of the first digit and remaining three are obtained in a geometric progression with common ratio as the ratio of the original two digits (i.e. 1:4) i.e. the row is 1 4 16 64. iv) Write twice the values of 2nd and 3rd terms under the terms respectively in second row. i.e., 1 4 16 64 8 32 ( ![]() v) Add the numbers column wise and follow carry over process. 1 4 16 64 Since 16 + 32 + 6 (carryover) = 54 8 32 4 written and 5 (carryover) + 4 + 8 = 17 ______________ 2 7 4 4 7 written and 1 (carryover) + 1 = 2. This 2744 is nothing but the cube of the number 14 Example 2: Find 333 Algebraic Proof: Let a and b be two digits. Consider the row a3 a2b ab2 b3 the first is a3 and the numbers are in the ratio a:b since a3:a2b=a2b:b3=a:b Now twice of a2b, ab2 are 2a2b, 2ab2 a3 + a2b + ab2 + b3 2a2b + 2ab2 ________________________________ a3 + 3a2b + 3ab2 + b3 = (a + b)3. Thus cubes of two digit numbers can be obtained very easily by using the vedic sutra ‘anurupyena’. Now cubing can be done by using the vedic sutra ‘Yavadunam’. Example 3: Consider 1063. i) The base is 100 and excess is 6. In this context we double the excess and then add. i.e. 106 + 12 = 118. ( ![]() This becomes the left - hand - most portion of the cube. i.e. 1063 = 118 / - - - - ii) Multiply the new excess by the initial excess i.e. 18 x 6 = 108 (excess of 118 is 18) Now this forms the middle portion of the product of course 1 is carried over, 08 in the middle. i.e. 1063 = 118 / 08 / - - - - - 1 iii) The last portion of the product is cube of the initial excess. i.e. 63 = 216. 16 in the last portion and 2 carried over. i.e. 1063 = 118 / 081 / 16 = 1191016 1 2 Example 4: Find 10023. i) Base = 1000. Excess = 2. Left-hand-most portion of the cube becomes 1002+(2x2)=1006. ii) New excess x initial excess = 6 x 2 = 12. Thus 012 forms the middle portion of the cube. iii) Cube of initial excess = 23 = 8. So the last portion is 008. Thus 10023 = 1006 / 012 / 008 = 1006012008. Example 5: Find 943. i) Base = 100, deficit = -6. Left-hand-most portion of the cube becomes 94+(2x-6)=94-12=82. ii) New deficit x initial deficit = -(100-82)x(-6)=-18x-6=108 Thus middle potion of the cube = 08 and 1 is carried over. iii) Cube of initial deficit = (-6)3 = -216 __ __ Now 943 = 82 / 08 / 16 = 83 / 06 / 16 _ 1 2 = 83 / 05 / (100 – 16) = 830584. 103, 112, 91, 89, 998, 9992, 1014. To find the equation of straight line passing through the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) , we generally consider one of the following methods. 1. General equation y = mx + c. It is passing through (x1, y1) then y1 = mx1 + c. It is passing through (x2, y2) also, then y2 = mx2 + c. Solving these two simultaneous equations, we get ‘m’ and ‘c’ and so the equation. 2. The formula (y2 - y1) y – y1 = ________ (x – x1) and substitution. (x2 - x1) Some sequence of steps gives the equation. But the paravartya sutra enables us to arrive at the conclusion in a more easy way and convenient to work mentally. Example1: Find the equation of the line passing through the points (9,7) and (5,2). Step1: Put the difference of the y - coordinates as the x - coefficient and vice - versa. i.e. x coefficient = 7 - 2 = 5 y coefficient = 9 - 5 = 4. Thus L.H.S of equation is 5x - 4y. Step 2: The constant term (R.H.S) is obtained by substituting the co-ordinates of either of the given points in L.H.S (obtained through step-1) i.e. R.H.S of the equation is 5(9) - 4(7) = 45 - 28 = 17 or 5(5) - 4(2) = 25 - 8 = 17. Thus the equation is 5x - 4y = 17. Example 2: Find the equation of the line passing through (2, -3) and (4,-7). Step 1 : x[-3-(-7)] –y[2-4] = 4x + 2y. Step 2 : 4(2) + 2(-3) = 8 –6 = 2. Step 3 : Equation is 4x + 2y =2 or 2x +y = 1. Example 3 : Equation of the line passing through the points (7,9) and (3,-7). Step 1 : x[9 - (-7)] – y(7 - 3) = 16x - 4y. Step 2 : 16(7) - 4(9) = 112 – 36 = 76 Step 1. (1, 2), (4,-3) 2. (5,-2), (5,-4) 3. (-5, -7), (13,2) 4. (a, o) , (o,b) |
