Step-by-step explanation:
hope this helps you better
Given :
To find :
Value of -
- x² + y²
- x³ + y³
Concept :
Here in the question we are given the value of x and y. So calculating the value of ( x² + y² ) and ( x³ + y³ ) is simple, we just need to substitute the given values of x and y in the expressions. But we would first simplify the values of x and y by Rationalizing them.
In order to rationalize we need to multiply the given ratio by the conjugate of the denominator. So after rationalizing and substituting the rationalized value of x and y in the expression we would get our required answer.
Hope am clear let's solve :D~
Solution :
Rationalizing the value of x -
We know conjugate of ( √3-√2 ) is ( √3+√2 ) so multiplying the ratio by ( √3+√2 )
Rationalizing the value of y -
We know conjugate of ( √3+√2 ) is ( √3-√2 ) so multiplying the ratio by ( √3-√2 )
Calculating the required value for the expressions -
(i)
Substituting the simplified values of x and y
Using an identities :
- ( a + b )² = a² + 2ab + b²
- ( a - b )² = a² - 2ab + b²
Multiplying the signs and removing the brackets
Arranging the numbers
Proceeding simple calculation
_____________________
(ii)
Using an identity :
- a³ + b³ = ( a + b ) ( a² - ab + b² )
Substituting the values
_____________________
Henceforth -
❒ x² + y² =
❒ x³ + y³ =
