Answer:

We have:

x=\dfrac{\sqrt{2}+1}{\sqrt{2}-1}

on rationalizing the denominator we have:

x=\dfrac{\sqrt{2}+1}{\sqrt{2}-1}\times \dfrac{\sqrt{2}+1}{\sqrt{2}+1}\\\\\\x=\dfrac{(\sqrt{2}+1)^2}{(\sqrt{2})^2-1^2}\\\\x=\dfrac{2+1+2\sqrt{2}}{2-1}\\\\x=\dfrac{3+2\sqrt{2}}{1}\\\\x=3+2\sqrt{2}

Similarly we are given:

y=\dfrac{\sqrt{2}-1}{\sqrt{2}+1}\\\\y=\dfrac{\sqrt{2}-1}{\sqrt{2}+1}\times \dfrac{\sqrt{2}-1}{\sqrt{2}-1}\\\\y=\dfrac{(\sqrt{2}-1)^2}{2-1}\\\\y=\dfrac{2+1-2\sqrt{2}}{1}\\\\y=3-2\sqrt{2}

Now,

we are asked to find the value of the expression:

x^2+xy+y^2

=(3+2\sqrt{2})^2+(3+2\sqrt{2})(3-2\sqrt{2})+(3-2\sqrt{2})^2\\\\=9+8+12\sqrt{2}+9-8+9+8-12\sqrt{2}

(

since,

(a-b)(a+b)=a^2+b^2

)

so,

x^2+y^2+xy=9+8+1+9+8=35

since, the same term 12\sqrt{2} but with opposite signs are cancelled out.

Hence, the value of the expression:

x^2+xy+y^2=35
