Rationalizing the denominator of the expression
(\sqrt 3)/(\sqrt2 + 1) gives 3

How to rationalize the denominator

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:


(\sqrt 3)/(\sqrt2 + 1)

To rationalize, we have


(\sqrt 3)/(\sqrt2 + 1) = (\sqrt 3)/(\sqrt2 + 1) * (\sqrt 3)/(\sqrt2 - 1)

Evaluate the product

So, we have


(\sqrt 3)/(\sqrt2 + 1) = (3)/(2 - 1)

Evaluate the like terms


(\sqrt 3)/(\sqrt2 + 1) = (3)/(1)

Evaluate the quotient


(\sqrt 3)/(\sqrt2 + 1) = 3

Hence, rationalizing the denominator gives 3
