i think my teacher said there is a solution

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ye, srry, i read it 2 quick and forgot the rules :P

OpenStudy (mertsj):

By squaring both sides, when x^2+y^2=x^2+2xy+y^2

OpenStudy (mertsj):

Simplifying: when 0 = 2xy

I dont think u can split it out eliassaab, for the sqrt

@eliassaab What happened to the radical?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I did not see it. Stay tuned.

OpenStudy (mertsj):

So the answer is if either x or y = 0 the condition is true.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Are we looking for a x, y values conditions? or a general one like Mertsj said ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I agree is either x=0 or y=0

OpenStudy (anonymous):
