उत्तर १
`(x^4 + 1)/(2x^2) = (17)/(8)`
Using Componendo and Dividendo
`(x^2 + 1 + 2x^2)/(x^4 + 1 - 2x^2) = (17 + 8)/(17 - 8)`
⇒ `((x^2 + 1)^2)/((x^2 - 1)^2) = (25)/(9)`
⇒ `(x^2 + 1)/(x^2 - 1) = (5)/(3) ...("taking square root on both the sides")`
Again applying Componendo and Dividendo
`(x^2 + 1 + x^2 - 1)/(x^2 + 1 - x^2 + 1) = (5 + 3)/(5 - 3)`
`(2x^2)/(2) = (8)/(2)`
⇒ x2 - 4
⇒ x = ±2
उत्तर २
`(x^4 + 1)/(2x^2) = (17)/(8)`
Apply componendo and dividendo:
⇒ `((x^4 + 1) + (2x^2))/((x^4 + 1) - (2x^2)) = (17 + 8)/(17 - 8)`
⇒ `(x^4 + 2x^2 + 1)/(x^4 - 2x^2 + 1) = 25/9`
⇒ `(x^2 + 1)^2/(x^2 - 1)^2 = 25/9`
Take the square root of both sides,
⇒ `sqrt((x^2 + 1)^2/(x^2 - 1)^2) = +-sqrt(25/9)`
⇒ `(x^2 + 1)/(x^2 - 1) = +-5/3`
Case 1:
⇒ `(x^2 + 1)/(x^2 - 1) = 5/3`
Apply Componendo and Dividendo again:
⇒ `((x^2 + 1) + (x^2 - 1))/((x^2 + 1) - (x^2 - 1)) = (5 + 3)/(5 - 3)`
⇒ `(2x^2)/2 = 8/2`
⇒ x2 = 4
⇒ x = ±2
Case 2:
⇒ `(x^2 + 1)/(x^2 - 1) = -5/3`
Cross-multiply to solve:
⇒ 3(x2 + 1) = −5(x2 − 1)
⇒ 3x2 + 3 = −5x2 + 5
⇒ 8x2 = 2
⇒ x2 = `2/8`
⇒ x2 = `1/4`
⇒ x = `+-1/2`
