Case Study 3
Two classmates Rida and Ruby simplified two different expressions during the
revision hour and explained to each other their simplifications.

√2
Rida explains simplifications of by rationalizing the denominator and
√5+√3
Ruby explains simplifications of (√2 +√3) (√2 -√3) by using the identity
(a+ b)(a-b).
Answer the following questions.
(i) What is the conjugate of √5 + √3
(a) √5 − √3 (b) √5 + √3
(c)√5 × √3 (d) √5 ÷ √3
√2
(ii) By rationalizing Rida got the answer
√5+√3
√2 √2(√5−√3)
(a) (b)
√5−√3 2
√2(√5+√3)
(c) √5 − √3 (d) )
