Question:

If $m+\frac{1}{m-2}=4$, then find the value of $(m-2)^2+\frac{1}{(m-2)^2}$.

Options:

-2

4

0

2

Correct Answer:

2

Explanation:

If $m+\frac{1}{m-2}=4$

Subtract -2 on both the sides 

If $m - 2 +\frac{1}{m-2}=4 - 2$

If $m - 2 +\frac{1}{m-2}=2$

Then the value of $(m-2)^2+\frac{1}{(m-2)^2}$ = 22 - 2 = 2
