use below :
\(\large (a+b)^2 = (a-b)^2 + 4ab\)
\(\large a^2-b^2 = (a+b)(a-b)\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so is a² + b² = 1.53?????
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
why do we need \(a^2 + b^2\) ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
idk weak at this
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
we can find the value of \((a+b)^2\) and take square root to get the value of \(a+b\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
a-b=0.9
ab = 0.36
\(\large (a+b)^2 = (a-b)^2 + 4ab = (0.9)^2 + 4(0.36) = ?\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
its not 4ab its 2ab
OpenStudy (anonymous):
in my country
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
haha thats hilarious, whats your country ? :)

like
(a-b)² = a² + b² - 2ab
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
yes, add 4ab to that identity and see what you get ^
OpenStudy (anonymous):
??
do and show using 2ab and not 4ab
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
(a-b)² + 4ab = a² + b² - 2ab + 4ab
= ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
pl this 4ab is confusing me

usein the one i yold
OpenStudy (anonymous):
use tthe one i told
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
Alright, are these your formulas :
\((a+b)^2 = a^2 + b^2 + 2ab\)
\((a-b)^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab\)
?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yep
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
subtract them and tell me what you get

OpenStudy (anonymous):
(0.9)² = a² + b² - 2 x 0/36
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
that looks good ^
OpenStudy (anonymous):
its .36 not 36
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so now
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
find the value of \(a^2 + b^2\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):
1.53????
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
Correct !
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
\((a+b)^2 = a^2 + b^2 + 2ab\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
?
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
plugin the values, then take squareroot

so now what i do
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i alwyas get stuck here
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
\((a+b)^2 = 1.53 + 2(0.36)\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
.81??????
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
try again

OpenStudy (anonymous):
tried 8 times
OpenStudy (anonymous):
...
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
\((a+b)^2 = 1.53 + 2(0.36) = 2.25\)
\(\implies a+b = \pm 1.5\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok now
OpenStudy (anonymous):
a²-b²

Notice that you got two values for \(a+b\) : -1.5, +1.5
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
for calculating \(a^2-b^2\), use the identity : \(a^2 - b^2 = (a+b)(a-b)\)
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
when a+b = -1.5 :
\(a^2 - b^2 = (-1.5)(0.9) = ?\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
idk
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
just multiply -1.5 and 0.9

find a² + b² n ab
OpenStudy (anonymous):
is ab = 5?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
you're given system of equations,
solve \(a\) and \(b\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
is ab = 5?
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
Yep !
OpenStudy (anonymous):
n the last part 26?
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
Correct ! good job :)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
3x + 4y = 16
square both sides
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
(3x + 4y)^2 = 16^2
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
expand
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
(3x + 4y)^2 = 16^2
(3x)^2 + (4y)^2 + 2(3x)(4y) = 256
9x^2 + 16y^2 + 24xy = 256

plugin the value of xy
OpenStudy (anonymous):
thtas it?
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
yes thats it
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ty
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
you're given xy = 4 :
9x^2 + 16y^2 + 24xy = 256
9x^2 + 16y^2 + 24(4) = 256
9x^2 + 16y^2 = 256 - 24(4)
