Answer :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1 / (1 + 1/sqrt(2))

= 1 / (1 + 1/sqrt(2))      *    sqrt(2)/sqrt(2)

= sqrt(2) / (sqrt(2) + 1)

= sqrt(2) / (sqrt(2) + 1)    *    (sqrt(2) - 1) / (sqrt(2) - 1)

= (sqrt(2) * (sqrt(2) - 1))   /   ((sqrt(2) + 1) * (sqrt(2) - 1))         #1

= (2 - sqrt(2))   /   (2 - 1)                                                      #2

= 2 - sqrt(2)

#1 : (a - b) * (a + b) = a^2 - b^2

#2 : sqrt(a) * sqrt(a) = a
