In this sum, why don't we use BODMAS condition?

= sqrt3/1 - 1/sqrt3.
= sqrt9 - 1/sqrt3.
= (3 - 1/sqrt3)^2.
We know that,
(a/b)^2 = a^2/b^2.
so,
= (2^2)/(sqrt3^2).
= 4/sqrt9.
= 4/3.

Use the formula:

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

Any one please explain this sum?

Taking LCM.

= (sqrt3- 1/sqrt3)^2.
= ( (3-1)/sqrt3)^2.
= (2/sqrt3)^2.
= 4/3.

It is (a-b)square = (a square+b square-2ab).

How to calculate LCM?

Abhilash said:   9 years ago
By doing LCM b/w root3 and 1/root3 also we can get that easily.
