If x = √3-√2/√3+√2 and y = √3+√2/√3-√2 find the value of x3+y3 :
(1) 807 (2) 907 (3) 970 (4)870 Solution: Rationallsing the denominators. we have x=√3-√2/√3+√2*√3-√2/√3-√2 =(√3-√2)2/(√3)2-(√2)2 = 3+2-2√3*√2/3-2 = 5-2√6 and, y=√3+√2/√3-√2*√3+√2/√3+√2 = (√3+√2)2/(√3)2-(√2)2 = 3+2+2√3*√2/3-2 = 5+2√6 :. x+ y = 5-2√6+5+2√6 = 10 and, xy= (5-2√6) (5+2√6) = 52-(2√6)2 =25-24=1 x3+y3 =(x+y)3-3xy (x+ y) = 103– 3 *10 = 1000 – 30 =970 Then the option is […]
