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