Write the Lowest Rationalising Factor of : 7 - √7 - Mathematics

Write the lowest rationalising factor of : 7 - √7

Sum

7 - √7
( 7 - √7 )( 7 + √7 ) = 49 - 7 = 42
Therefore, lowest rationalizing factor is ( 7 + √7 ).

Rationalize the denominator.

`6/(9sqrt 3)`

Write the simplest form of rationalising factor for the given surd.

`sqrt 50`

Write the simplest form of rationalising factor for the given surd.

`3 sqrt 72`

Write the lowest rationalising factor of : √5 - √2

If m = `1/[ 3 - 2sqrt2 ] and n = 1/[ 3 + 2sqrt2 ],` find m²

If m = `1/[ 3 - 2sqrt2 ] and n = 1/[ 3 + 2sqrt2 ],` find n²

Evaluate : `( 4 - √5 )/( 4 + √5 ) + ( 4 + √5 )/( 4 - √5 )`

Rationalise the denominator `5/(3sqrt(5))`

Rationalise the denominator and simplify `(5sqrt(3) + sqrt(2))/(sqrt(3) + sqrt(2))`

Given `sqrt(2)` = 1.414, find the value of `(8 - 5sqrt(2))/(3 - 2sqrt(2))` (to 3 places of decimals).
