🎥 Watch Video Solution


Q. If \( 0 < y < x \), which statement must be true?
(a) \( \sqrt{x} – \sqrt{y} = \sqrt{x-y} \) (b) \( \sqrt{x} + \sqrt{x} = \sqrt{2x} \) (c) \( x\sqrt{y} = y\sqrt{x} \) (d) \( \sqrt{xy} = \sqrt{x}\sqrt{y} \)

✏️ Solution

(a) \( \sqrt{x} – \sqrt{y} \neq \sqrt{x-y} \)

(b) \( \sqrt{x} + \sqrt{x} = 2\sqrt{x} \neq \sqrt{2x} \)

(c) \( x\sqrt{y} \neq y\sqrt{x} \)

(d) Property: \( \sqrt{ab} = \sqrt{a}\sqrt{b} \) (true for positive numbers)

Correct Option: (d)

\( \boxed{\sqrt{xy} = \sqrt{x}\sqrt{y}} \)
