If a>b>0 , then the value of ⁻¹ ( a b )+ ⁻¹ ( a+b a-b ) depends on
Options
- Aneither a nor b
- Ba and not b
- Cb and not a
- Dboth a and b
Correct answer
A. neither a nor b
Step-by-step solution
We have, ⁻¹ ( a b )+ ⁻¹ ( a+b a-b )= ⁻¹ [ a b + a+b a-b 1- ( a b ) ( a+b a-b ) ]= ⁻¹ [ a²-a b+a b+b² b(a-b) b(a-b)-a(a+b) b(a-b) ]= ⁻¹ [ a²+b² a b-b²-a²-a b ]= ⁻¹ [ a²+b² - (a²+b² ) ]= ⁻¹(-1) It does not depends neither a nor b .
