The square root of (7 + 35) (7 - 35) is
-
3.5
-
2
-
6.2
-
4
Using the identity (a+b)(a-b) = a² - b², we have: (7 + 3√5)(7 - 3√5) = 7² - (3√5)² = 49 - 9(5) = 49 - 45 = 4. The square root of 4 is 2. This is a direct application of the difference of squares formula.
To find the square root of the expression (7 + 35) (7 - 35), we need to simplify the expression first.
(7 + 35) (7 - 35) = 42 * (-28) = -1176
Now, let's find the square root of -1176.
The square root of a negative number is not a real number, so we need to take the square root of the absolute value of -1176.
√|-1176| = √1176
To simplify this further, we can find the prime factorization of 1176.
1176 = 2^3 * 3 * 7^2
Taking out the square root of the perfect square factors, we have:
√1176 = √(2^3 * 3 * 7^2) = 2 * 7 * √3 = 14√3
Therefore, the square root of (7 + 35) (7 - 35) is 14√3.
Comparing the options:
