If m ∆ n means m²-2mm+n², determine the value of 3∆2.
Here we are given that m ∆ n means m² -2mn +n². And we need to find the value of 3∆2 . So let's find out what does the " ∆ " operator does.
Here we can see that m² - 2mn - n² is the whole square of ( m - n)² . A inference can be taken out that the operator " ∆ " first subtracts the two numbers and then squares the obtained value to get the result . That is ,
Now similarly let's simplify out 3 ∆ 2.
Step 1 : Subtract the two numbers :-
This means we need to subtract 2 from 3 . This will give result as ,
Step 2 : Square the obtained value :-
Here , the value obtained from step 1 is 1 and the square of 1 is 1 . So our final result would be,
