Answer:
√(23-8√7)+√(11-4√7) = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Step1:-
Given Surds √(23-8√7)+√(11-4√7)
now we have to simplify √(23-8√7)
[tex]\sqrt{16+7-2×4\sqrt{7} }[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{4^{2}+\sqrt{7} ^{2}-2(4)\sqrt{7}}[/tex]
This is form of [tex](a-b)^{2} =a^{2} -2 ab+b^{2}[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt[2]{(4-\sqrt{7})^{2} }[/tex]
[tex]4-\sqrt{7}[/tex].......(1)
Step2:-
we have to simplify √(11-4√7)
[tex]\sqrt{7+4-2(2)\sqrt{7} }[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{\sqrt{(7)}^{2}+(2)^{2} -2(2)\sqrt{7} }[/tex]
using formula
[tex](a-b)^{2} =a^{2} -2 ab+b^{2}[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{(\sqrt{7)}^{2}-(2)^{2} }[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{7}-2[/tex].....(2)
step3:-
adding (1) and (2) equations and cancelled
we get answer is 2
