To prove that if the arithmetic mean (A.M.) of two positive numbers \( a \) and \( b \) (where \( a > b \)) is twice their geometric mean (G.M.), then the ratio \( a : b = (2 + \sqrt{3}) : (2 - \sqrt{3}) \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the relationship between A.M. and G.M. The arithmetic mean of \( a \) and \( b \) is given by: \[ \text{A.M.} = \frac{a + b}{2} \] The geometric mean of \( a \) and \( b \) is given by: ...
