\frac{1}{\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{2}}=\frac{\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{2}}{3}
Step-by-step explanation:
Rationalising\: the \: \\denominator \: of \: \frac{1}{\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{2}}
Multiply numerator and denominator by (√5-√2), we get
=\frac{\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{2}}{(\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{2})(\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{2})}
=\frac{\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{2}}{(\sqrt{5})^{2}-(\sqrt{2})^{2}}
/* By algebraic identity:
(a+b)(a-b)=a²-b²*/
=\frac{\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{2}}{5-2}
=\frac{\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{2}}{3}
/* Denominator rationalised */
Therefore,
\frac{1}{\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{2}}=\frac{\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{2}}{3}
