The correct Answer is:
To express \(4 + \sqrt{7}\) in the form of a perfect square, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the perfect square form A perfect square can generally be expressed in the form \((a + b)^2\), where \(a\) and \(b\) are real numbers. We want to find \(a\) and \(b\) such that: \[ (a + b)^2 = a^2 + b^2 + 2ab \] ### Step 2: Set up the equation We want to find \(a\) and \(b\) such that: \[ a^2 + b^2 + 2ab = 4 + \sqrt{7} \] ### Step 3: Choose values for \(a\) and \(b\) Let's try \(a = 2\) and \(b = \frac{\sqrt{7}}{2}\). We will check if this choice satisfies the equation. ### Step 4: Calculate \(a^2\), \(b^2\), and \(2ab\) 1. Calculate \(a^2\): \[ a^2 = 2^2 = 4 \] 2. Calculate \(b^2\): \[ b^2 = \left(\frac{\sqrt{7}}{2}\right)^2 = \frac{7}{4} \] 3. Calculate \(2ab\): \[ 2ab = 2 \cdot 2 \cdot \frac{\sqrt{7}}{2} = 2\sqrt{7} \] ### Step 5: Combine the results Now, we can combine these results: \[ a^2 + b^2 + 2ab = 4 + \frac{7}{4} + 2\sqrt{7} \] To combine \(4\) and \(\frac{7}{4}\), convert \(4\) into quarters: \[ 4 = \frac{16}{4} \] Thus, \[ a^2 + b^2 + 2ab = \frac{16}{4} + \frac{7}{4} + 2\sqrt{7} = \frac{23}{4} + 2\sqrt{7} \] ### Step 6: Check if it equals \(4 + \sqrt{7}\) We need to check if: \[ \frac{23}{4} + 2\sqrt{7} = 4 + \sqrt{7} \] Convert \(4\) into quarters: \[ 4 = \frac{16}{4} \] So we compare: \[ \frac{23}{4} + 2\sqrt{7} \quad \text{and} \quad \frac{16}{4} + \sqrt{7} \] ### Step 7: Simplify The equation simplifies to: \[ \frac{23}{4} + 2\sqrt{7} \neq \frac{16}{4} + \sqrt{7} \] ### Conclusion After checking various options, we find that: \[ 4 + \sqrt{7} = \left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(1 + \sqrt{7})\right)^2 \] Thus, the expression \(4 + \sqrt{7}\) can be represented as a perfect square. ### Final Answer The correct representation of \(4 + \sqrt{7}\) in the form of a perfect square is: \[ \left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(1 + \sqrt{7})\right)^2 \]
