The sum of two numbers is 6 times their ...

The sum of two numbers is 6 times their geometric mean, show that numbers are in the ratio `(3+2sqrt2):(3-2sqrt2).`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let the two numbers are `a` and `b`
Thus their `GM = sqrt(ab)`
According to the given condition , `a+b=6sqrt(ab)`...(1)
Adding (1) and (2), we obtain `b=6sqrt(ab)-(3+2sqrt2)sqrt(ab)`
