The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem where \( x = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2}} \) and we need to find \( \frac{1}{x} \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write down the expression for \( x \) Given: \[ x = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2}} \] ### Step 2: Find \( \frac{1}{x} \) To find \( \frac{1}{x} \), we can take the reciprocal of \( x \): \[ \frac{1}{x} = \sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2} \] ### Step 3: Rationalize the denominator of \( x \) To express \( x \) in a different form, we can rationalize the denominator: \[ x = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2}} \cdot \frac{\sqrt{3} - \sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{3} - \sqrt{2}} = \frac{\sqrt{3} - \sqrt{2}}{(\sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2})(\sqrt{3} - \sqrt{2})} \] ### Step 4: Simplify the denominator Using the difference of squares: \[ (\sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2})(\sqrt{3} - \sqrt{2}) = 3 - 2 = 1 \] Thus, we have: \[ x = \sqrt{3} - \sqrt{2} \] ### Step 5: Find \( \frac{1}{x} \) again Now substituting back, we find: \[ \frac{1}{x} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3} - \sqrt{2}} \] ### Step 6: Rationalize \( \frac{1}{x} \) To rationalize \( \frac{1}{x} \): \[ \frac{1}{x} = \frac{\sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2}}{(\sqrt{3} - \sqrt{2})(\sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2})} = \frac{\sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2}}{3 - 2} = \sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2} \] ### Final Answer Thus, the value of \( \frac{1}{x} \) is: \[ \frac{1}{x} = \sqrt{3} + \sqrt{2} \] ---
