Question

If a+b=20 and ab=50
Then find the value of a^2+b^2​

Answer 1

a² + b² = 300

Explanation:

a + b = 20 ; ab = 50

(a +b)² = a²+ b² + 2ab

a² + b² + 2ab = (a + b)²

a² + b² + 2*50 = (20)²

a² + b² + 100 = 400

a² + b² = 400 - 100

a² + b² = 300

Answer 2

Here,

a+b=20

ab=50

we know that,

`\tt{ (a+b)^2=a^2+b^2+2ab }` ⠀

According to the question,

`\tt{(20)^2=a^2+b^2+2×50 }` ⠀

`\tt{ 400=a^2+b^2+100 }` ⠀

`\tt{ a^2+b^2=400-100 }` ⠀

`\tt{a^2+b^2=300 }` ⠀
