(7 + 4 √(3) ) \: (7 - 4 √(3) ) \\ \\ = 7 \: (7 - 4 √(3) ) + 4 √(3) (7 - 4 √(3) ) \\ \\ = 49 - 28 √(3) + 28 √(3) - 48 \: (since \: √(3) * √(3) = 3)\\ \\ = 49 - 48 \\ \\ = 1

You can also use the identity:

( a + b ) ( a - b ) =
{a}^(2) - {b}^(2)

Answer:

Explanation:

(a + b)(a - b) = a² - b²


(7 + 4√(3)) (7 - 4√(3)) = 7^(2)-(4√(3) )^(2)\\\\ = 49 - 4^(2)*(√(3))^(2)\\\\= 49 - 16 * 3\\\\= 49 - 48\\\\= 1
