Math Problem Statement
(√2-√3) (√6-√2)
Solution
Let's simplify the expression .
We will expand it using the distributive property (also known as FOIL for binomials):
Now, let's simplify each term:
Now substitute these simplified terms back into the expression:
So the simplified expression is:
This is the most simplified form of the expression.
