Given :   a  +  1/a   = 6

To find :  a²  - 1/a²

Solution:

a  +  1/a   = 6

Squaring both sides

=> a²  +  1/a² + 2a(1/a) = 36

=>  a²  +  1/a² + 2 = 36

=> a²  +  1/a² = 34

=> a²  +  1/a²  - 2a(1/a)  = 34  - 2a(1/a)

=> (a  - 1/a)²  = 34 - 2

=> (a  - 1/a)²   = 32

=> a  - 1/a  = ±4√2

  a²  - 1/a²   =  (a + 1/a)(a - 1/a)

= 6  (±4√2)

=> a²  - 1/a²  = ±24√2

Given: Value of a + 1 / a = 6, a ≠ 0

To find: Value of a - 1 / a?

Solution:

  • Now we have given the value of a + 1 / a = 6
  • Squaring both sides, we get:

            ( a + 1 / a )² = 6²

  • Now solving the equation further we get:

            a² + 1/a² + 2 = 36

            a² + 1/a² = 34

  • Now we have :

            ( a - 1/a )² = a² + 1/a² - 2

                            = 34 - 2

                            = 32

             a - 1/a = √32 = 4√2

  • Now we have:

             a²  - 1/a²   =  (a + 1/a)(a - 1/a)

                              = 6 (4√2)

               a²  - 1/a²  = 24√2

Answer:

             So the value of a - 1 / a is 4√2 and  a²  - 1/a²  is 24√2
