Solution

i Given thata=2, b=5 and a. b=8 ...1We know thata-b2=a2+b2-2 a. b =22+52-2 8 Using 1 =4+25-16 =13 a-b=13

ii Given thata=3, b=4 and a. b=1 ...1We know thata-b2=a2+b2-2 a. b =32+42-2 1 Using 1 =9+16-2 =23 a-b=23

iii Given thata=2, b=3 and a. b=4 ...1We know thata-b2=a2+b2-2 a. b =22+32-2 4 Using 1 =4+9-8 =5 a-b=5
