Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : If x = √6 + √5
To find : the value of : x² + 1/x² - 2
We have x = √6 + √5 …...…..(1)
∴ 1/x = 1/(√6 + √5)
By Rationalizing denominator, we have :
= 1 × (√6 -√5) / [(√6 + √5) × (√6 - √5)]
= (√6 - √5) / (√6)² - (√5)²
[We know that, (a + b) (a - b) = a² - b²]
= (√6 - √5)/(6 - 5)
= (√6 - √5 )/1
= √6 - √5
1/x = √6 - √5 ………(2)
Then, x² + 1/x² - 2
We know that, x² + 1/x² - 2 = (x - 1/x)²
On putting the value from eq 1 & 2 :
x² + 1/x² - 2 = [√6 + √5 - (√6 - √5 )]²
x² + 1/x² - 2 = [√6 + √5 - √6 + √5 ]²
x² + 1/x² - 2 = (√5 + √5)²
x² + 1/x² - 2 = (2√5)²
x² + 1/x² - 2 = 4 × 5
x² + 1/x² - 2 = 20
Hence, x² + 1/x² - 2 is 20.
