    Solve the following problems. if  \[\frac{5+2\sqrt{3}}{7+4\sqrt{3}}=a+b\sqrt{3}\]then the values of a and are :

    A)                  a = 11, b = 11                    

    B)                  a = 11, b = 6

    C)                  a = ?11,b = -6                 

    D)                  a = 11, b = - 6

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                     Now, \[\frac{5+2\sqrt{3}}{7+4\sqrt{3}}=\frac{5+2\sqrt{3}}{7+4\sqrt{3}}\times \frac{7-4\sqrt{3}}{7-4\sqrt{3}}\] \[=\frac{35-20\sqrt{3}+14\sqrt{3}-24}{{{\left( 7 \right)}^{2}}-{{\left( 4\sqrt{3} \right)}^{2}}}\] \[=\frac{11-6\sqrt{3}}{49-48}\] \[\Rightarrow \frac{11-6\sqrt{3}}{1}=a+6\sqrt{3}\left( given \right)\] On comparing, we get a = 11 and b = - 6
