| If x = | 3 + 1 | and y = | 3 - 1 | , then the value of (x2 + y2) is: |
| 3 - 1 | 3 + 1 |
Answer: Option
Explanation:
| x = | (3 + 1) | x | (3 + 1) | = | (3 + 1)2 | = | 3 + 1 + 23 | = 2 + 3. |
| (3 - 1) | (3 + 1) | (3 - 1) | 2 |
| y = | (3 - 1) | x | (3 - 1) | = | (3 - 1)2 | = | 3 + 1 - 23 | = 2 - 3. |
| (3 + 1) | (3 - 1) | (3 - 1) | 2 |
x2 + y2 = (2 + 3)2 + (2 - 3)2
= 2(4 + 3)
= 14

Can anyone explain me why can't we solve x and y individually to get x^2 = 4 and y^2 = 1/4? So to get x^2 +y^2 = 17/4.

This is correct: 14
x = (3 + 1) x (3 + 1) = (3 + 1)2
= 3 + 1 + 23 = 2 + 3.
(3 - 1) (3 + 1) (3 - 1) 2.
y = (3 - 1) x (3 - 1) = (3 - 1)2 = 3 + 1 - 23 = 2 - 3.
(3 + 1) (3 - 1) (3 - 1) 2,
x2 + y2 = (2 + 3)2 + (2 - 3)2,
= 2(4 + 3),
= 14.
x = (3 + 1) x (3 + 1) = (3 + 1)2
= 3 + 1 + 23 = 2 + 3.
(3 - 1) (3 + 1) (3 - 1) 2.
y = (3 - 1) x (3 - 1) = (3 - 1)2 = 3 + 1 - 23 = 2 - 3.
(3 + 1) (3 - 1) (3 - 1) 2,
x2 + y2 = (2 + 3)2 + (2 - 3)2,
= 2(4 + 3),
= 14.

(2 + 3) 2 + (2 - 3) 2.
2 (4 + 3).
How can anyone explain this?

(2 + 3) 2 + (2 - 3) 2.
Explanation:
7+4root3+3+4-root3+3.
+4root3-4root3 cancel.
After that,
4+3+4+3 = 14.
Explanation:
7+4root3+3+4-root3+3.
+4root3-4root3 cancel.
After that,
4+3+4+3 = 14.

x2+y2=(x-y)2+2xy, can we use this formula?
Anyone explain me.

Here, 2(x^2+y^2) = (x+y)^2+(x+y)^2.
