If x + \(\frac{1}{x}\) = 12 then find the value of x - \(\frac{1}{x}\). |
35\(\sqrt {3 }\) 4\(\sqrt {35 }\) 2\(\sqrt {35 }\) 2\(\sqrt {37 }\) |
2\(\sqrt {35 }\) |
⇒ If x + \(\frac{1}{x}\) = a then x - \(\frac{1}{x}\) = \(\sqrt {a^2 - 4}\) Here, x + \(\frac{1}{x}\) = 12, then ⇒ x - \(\frac{1}{x}\) = \(\sqrt {12^2 - 4}\) = 2\(\sqrt {35 }\) |
