Question

Which of the following statements are true ?

${\left(-\frac{4}{9}\right)}^2=-\frac{16}{81}$.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Given; ${\left(-\frac{4}{9}\right)}^2=-\frac{16}{81}$.

Now,

LHS $={\left(-\frac{4}{9}\right)}^2$

$$\begin{gathered} =\left(-\frac{4}{9}\right)\times \left(-\frac{4}{9}\right) \\ =\frac{16}{81} \end{gathered}$$

≠ RHS

Hence, given statement is false.
