Question 5 (iv)
Rationalize the denominators of the following:

$\frac{1}{(\sqrt{7} - 2)}$

Open in App

Solution

Multiply and divide with $(\sqrt{7} + 2) .$
$\frac{1}{\sqrt{7} - 2} = \frac{1 (\sqrt{7} + 2)}{(\sqrt{7} - 2) (\sqrt{7} + 2)} = \frac{\sqrt{7} + 2}{(\sqrt{7})^{2} - (2)^{2}} = \frac{\sqrt{7} + 2}{7 - 4} = \frac{\sqrt{7} + 2}{3}$
