Answer:

hyy dear,,,

here your answer is....

Rationalizing the Denominator is the standard way of simplifying fractions containing radicals in the denominator. Rationalizing the denominator means to “rewrite the fraction so there are no radicals in the denominator”.

Your problem as it now stands:

5 / (√7+√2)

Your problem has two terms in the denominator: a + b

You can rationalize the denominator by applying the Difference of Squares formula.

The difference of squares formula states that:

(a + b)(a - b) = a² - b²

You can remove the radicals from the denominator in your problem by multiplying the denominator by its conjugate: a – b.

“IF” the original denominator (√7 + √2) could by multiplied by its conjugate (√7 - √2), then both √ signs in the denominator would disappear, since:

(√7 + √2) * (√7 - √2)

= (√7)² - (√2)²

= 7 - 2

= 5

However, in order to preserve the value of the original fraction, both the numerator and denominator must each be multiplied by the same amount: (√7 - √2).

To apply this concept, multiply the original fraction by (√7 - √2)/(√7 - √2).

The fraction (√7 - √2)/(√7 - √2) is equal to 1, so the original fraction is merely being multiplied by 1.

As you can see by the following illustration, the value of the original fraction has not been changed.

= [original fraction] * (√7 - √2) / (√7 - √2)

= [5 / (√7 + √2)] * [(√7 - √2) / (√7 - √2)]

Multiply both numerators and multiply both denominators, just as you would when multiplying any two fractions:

= [5 * (√7 - √2)] / [(√7 + √2) * (√7 - √2)]

= [5 * (√7 - √2)] / [(√7)² - (√2)²]

= [5 * (√7 - √2)] / (7 - 2)

= [5 * (√7 - √2)] / (5)

= [5 * (√7 - √2)] / 5

= (√7 - √2) * (5 / 5)

= (√7 - √2) * (1)

= (√7 - √2)

= √7 - √2

The final answer is: √7 - √2
