Math Problem Statement

sqrt(1+x)*sqrt(1-x) simplifier

Solution

To simplify the expression 1+x1x\sqrt{1+x} \cdot \sqrt{1-x}, we use the property of square roots:

ab=ab\sqrt{a} \cdot \sqrt{b} = \sqrt{a \cdot b}

Step-by-Step Simplification:

  1. Apply the square root product property: 1+x1x=(1+x)(1x)\sqrt{1+x} \cdot \sqrt{1-x} = \sqrt{(1+x)(1-x)}

  2. Simplify the product inside the square root: (1+x)(1x)=12x2=1x2(difference of squares).(1+x)(1-x) = 1^2 - x^2 = 1 - x^2 \quad \text{(difference of squares)}.

  3. Substitute back: 1+x1x=1x2.\sqrt{1+x} \cdot \sqrt{1-x} = \sqrt{1-x^2}.

Final Answer:

1+x1x=1x2.\sqrt{1+x} \cdot \sqrt{1-x} = \sqrt{1-x^2}.
