a2 + 1/a2 = 2 then 1/a +a = ?

Answer 1

a^2 + 1/ a^2 = 2
(a+1/a)^2 - 2 × a × 1/a =2
(a+1/a)^2 -2 = 2
(a+ 1/a) ^2 = 4
(a+ 1/a) = 2
since
a + 1/a = 2

==================================
ANSWER

1/a + a = 2

EXPLANATION

using property-
(a+b)² = a² + b² + 2ab

(a + 1/a)² = a² + 1/a² + 2 ........... (I)

Substitute a² + 1/a² = 2 in eq.(I)

(a + 1/a)² = 2 + 2

(a + 1/a)² = 4

a + 1/a = √4

1/a + a = 2
