To prove that if the Arithmetic Mean (A.M.) and Geometric Mean (G.M.) between two numbers are in the ratio \( m:n \), then the numbers are in the ratio \( \frac{m + \sqrt{m^2 - n^2}}{m - \sqrt{m^2 - n^2}} \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define the Numbers Let the two numbers be \( a \) and \( b \). ### Step 2: Write the Formulas for A.M. and G.M. The Arithmetic Mean (A.M.) of \( a \) and \( b \) is given by: \[ ...
