Rationalize the denominator and simplify to the lowest term

Rationalize the denominator and simplify to the lowest term x/ (sqrt(x+1) -1)

Solution

[x/((x+1) -1)]

Rationalize the denominator => multiply and divide by ((x+1) +1)

=[x/((x+1) -1)]*[((x+1) +1)/((x+1) +1)]

=[x((x+1) +1)/((x+1) -1)((x+1) +1)]

(a-b)(a+b)=a2-b2

=[x((x+1) +1)/((x+1)2 -12)]

=[x((x+1) +1)/(x+1 -1)]

=[x((x+1) +1)/x]

=((x+1) +1)
