① | Multiply the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator . $$\color{blue}{ 2 + \sqrt{2}} $$. |
② | Multiply in a numerator. $$ \color{blue}{ \left( 4 + \sqrt{5}\right) } \cdot \left( 2 + \sqrt{2}\right) = \color{blue}{4} \cdot2+\color{blue}{4} \cdot \sqrt{2}+\color{blue}{ \sqrt{5}} \cdot2+\color{blue}{ \sqrt{5}} \cdot \sqrt{2} = \\ = 8 + 4 \sqrt{2} + 2 \sqrt{5} + \sqrt{10} $$ Simplify denominator. $$ \color{blue}{ \left( 2- \sqrt{2}\right) } \cdot \left( 2 + \sqrt{2}\right) = \color{blue}{2} \cdot2+\color{blue}{2} \cdot \sqrt{2}\color{blue}{- \sqrt{2}} \cdot2\color{blue}{- \sqrt{2}} \cdot \sqrt{2} = \\ = 4 + 2 \sqrt{2}- 2 \sqrt{2}-2 $$ |
③ | Simplify numerator and denominator |
