LHS = (3-√5)/(3+2√5)
/* Rationalising the denominator */
=[(3-√5)(3-2√5)]/[(3+2√5)(3-2√5)]
=[9-6√5-3√5+10]/[(3²-(2√5)²]
/* (a+b)(a-b) = a²-b² */
= [19-9√5]/(9-20)
= [19-9√5]/(-11)
=(-19/11)-(9/-11)√5
=(-19/11)+(9/11)√5 ---(1)
Now,
LHS = RHS
(9/11)√5-(19/11)1
=a√5-(19/11)b
Compare both sides, we get
a = 9/11 ,
b = 1
