Answer:
3 + root5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
To rationalize 2/3 - root5
Step 1 = multiply both the numerator and the denominator of the number with the conjugate of the denominator(3 - root5)
The conjugate of the numbers's denominator is 3 + root5
So,
= 2/3 - root5 X 3 + root5/3 + root5
Step 2 = Follow the identity
After multiplying-
= 6 + 2 root5/(3)^2 - (root5)^2[using identity A^2 - B^2 =(A + B)(A - B)
Then,
= 6 + 2 root5/9[3^2] - 5[root5 X root5]
= 6 + 2 root5/4
= 3 + root5/2
