Question Number 85649 by Hassen_Timol last updated on 23/Mar/20

Proove that :    ((√(2−(√3)))/2) = (((√6)−(√2))/4)

$$\mathrm{Proove}\:\mathrm{that}\:: \\ $$$$ \\ $$$$\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{2}−\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}}}{\mathrm{2}}\:=\:\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{6}}−\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}}{\mathrm{4}} \\ $$

((√(2−(√3)))/2)=((√(8−4(√3)))/4)=((√(((√6))^2 −2×(√6)×(√2)+((√2))^2 ))/4)  =((√(((√6)−(√2))^2 ))/4)=(((√6)−(√2))/4)

$$\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{2}−\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}}}{\mathrm{2}}=\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{8}−\mathrm{4}\sqrt{\mathrm{3}}}}{\mathrm{4}}=\frac{\sqrt{\left(\sqrt{\mathrm{6}}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{2}×\sqrt{\mathrm{6}}×\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}+\left(\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} }}{\mathrm{4}} \\ $$$$=\frac{\sqrt{\left(\sqrt{\mathrm{6}}−\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} }}{\mathrm{4}}=\frac{\sqrt{\mathrm{6}}−\sqrt{\mathrm{2}}}{\mathrm{4}} \\ $$

2(√(2−(√3)))=(√6)−(√2)  square both sides  4(2−(√3))=((√6)−(√2))^2   8−4(√3)=6−2(√(12))+2  8−4(√3)=8−2(√(2^2 3))  8−4(√3)=8−4(√3)    or:  (√(2−(√3)))=a+b(√3)  squaring  2−(√3)=a^2 +3b^2 +2ab(√3)  ⇒ 2=a^2 +3b^2 ∧−1=2ab  ⇒ 2=a^2 +3b^2 ∧b=−(1/(2a))  ⇒ 2=a^2 +(3/(4a^2 )) ⇒ a^4 −2a^2 +(3/4)=0 ⇒  ⇒ a_(1, 2) =±((√2)/2)∨a_(3, 4) =±((√6)/2) ⇒ b_j =−a_j   ⇒ (√(2−(√3)))=a_j −a_j (√3)=±(((√6)/2)−((√2)/2))  but we know (√(2−(√3)))>0 ⇒  (√(2−(√3)))=((√6)/2)−((√2)/2)  and  ((√(2−(√3)))/2)=(((√6)−(√2))/4)
