If a=1/a-5, find (i)a-1/a (ii)a+1/a (iii)a^2-1/a^2, please, please , please answer it for me.​

Answer»

Answer:

a-1/a=-5 (obvious from PROBLEM)

a'2+5a-1=0 (MULTIPLY by a to the GIVEN EQN)

then a=-5-+ROOT(29)

a+1/a =(a'2+1)/a=(2-5a)/a =2/a -5

=2/(-5+root(29)) -5

=2*(-5-root(29))/(-4) -5

2*(5+root(29))/4-5

=10/4+2*root(29)/4 -5

=(root(29))/2 -5/2
