Heya user,
Multiplicative inverse of √3 + 2 is --->
--------> [ √3 + 2 ] ⁻¹ = 1 / [ √3 + 2 ]
{ Generally, We try to rationalize such irrational denominator }
---> Multiplying and dividing by [ √3 - 2 ] gives ->
-----> [ √3 - 2 ] / [ (√3 + 2)(√3 - 2) ]
=== [ √3 - 2 ] / [ √3² - 2² ] <----------- [ a + b ][ a - b ] = [ a² - b² ]
=== [ √3 - 2 ] / [ 3 - 4 ]
=== [ √3 - 2 ] / (-1)
=== [ 2 - √3 ] <----- Desired result ..........
