If x^2 + 1/x^2 = 66, find the value of x – 1/x
Find the Value Using Identity Find the Value \[ x^2 + \frac{1}{x^2} = 66 \] Find: \[ x – \frac{1}{x} \] Solution: Using identity: \[ \left(x-\frac{1}{x}\right)^2 = x^2+\frac{1}{x^2}-2 \] \[ \left(x-\frac{1}{x}\right)^2 = 66-2 \] \[ \left(x-\frac{1}{x}\right)^2 = 64 \] \[ x-\frac{1}{x} = \pm 8 \] Next Question / Full Exercise
