Question Number 43902 by ajfour last updated on 17/Sep/18

(√(a−b)) + (√(a+b)) = c (√(a−c)) + (√(a+c)) = b Solve for real b, and c ; in terms of real a.

$$\sqrt{{a}−{b}}\:+\:\sqrt{{a}+{b}}\:=\:{c} \\ $$$$\sqrt{{a}−{c}}\:+\:\sqrt{{a}+{c}}\:=\:{b} \\ $$$${Solve}\:{for}\:{real}\:{b},\:{and}\:{c}\:;\:{in}\:{terms}\: \\ $$$${of}\:{real}\:{a}. \\ $$

a≥2 b=c=2(√(a−1))

$${a}\geqslant\mathrm{2} \\ $$$${b}={c}=\mathrm{2}\sqrt{{a}−\mathrm{1}} \\ $$

This is certainly right sir; no other real answers even, Sir ?

what if I said that Solve for a in terms of b and c (a , b , c ) ∈ R

If a is to be found in terms of b and c. squaring first eq. 2a+2(√(a^2 −b^2 )) = c^2 squaring again 4a^2 −4b^2 = c^4 +4a^2 −4ac^2 ⇒ a = (c^2 /4)+(b^2 /c^2 ) similarly from second eq. a = (b^2 /4)+(c^2 /b^2 ) ⇒ a = (c^2 /4)+(b^2 /c^2 ) = (b^2 /4)+(c^2 /b^2 ) ...(i) ⇒ ((c^2 −b^2 )/4) = (((c^2 −b^2 )(c^2 +b^2 ))/(b^2 c^2 )) Two cases arise: If b^2 = c^2 , then a = 1+(b^2 /4) = 1+(c^2 /4) If b^2 ≠ c^2 ⇒ b^2 +c^2 = ((b^2 c^2 )/4) , then using (i) 2a = ((b^2 +c^2 )/4) + ((b^4 +c^4 )/(b^2 c^2 )) ⇒ 2a = ((b^2 +c^2 )/4) + (((b^2 +c^2 )^2 −2b^2 c^2 )/(b^2 c^2 )) 2a = ((b^2 c^2 )/(16))+((b^4 c^4 )/(16b^2 c^2 ))−2 ⇒ a = ((b^2 c^2 )/(16))−1 = ((b^2 +c^2 )/4)−1 .
