Either you can make a fraction from two whole numbers (denominator ≠ 0), thus a rational number. Or you can't, thus irrational.

Using Rule 1 :
1st number × 2nd number = L.C. M. × H.C.F,
First number × Second number = HCF × LCM

First five positive numbers = 2, 3, 5, 7 and 11

Hence, Option D is correct.

AB || CD and t transversal intersects them at E and F
∠BEF + ∠EFD = 180° (co-interior angles)

⇒ ∠FEG + ∠EFG = 90°
In Δ GEF
∠EGF + ∠FEG + ∠EFG = 180°
∴ ∠EGF + 90° = 180°
∴ ∠EGF = 90°.
The above result can be restated as :
If two parallel lines are cut by a traversal, then the bisectors of the interior angles on the same side of the traversal intersect each other at right angles.
