Hi there!
Yes, if the two fractions are less than one, their sum can be greater than one. Take the example of 3/4 and 3/4. It is less than 1, but has a sum if 1 1/2.
However, their sum cannot be greater than 2. For that to happen, there would have to be a sum of at least 1 and 1, which are not fractions.

Hope this helps :)

Their sum can be greater than two. There is nothing that states that they couldn't be. All it states it that the two factions sums are less than 1. I hoped this helps

What is the form of the two squares identity?

zvonat [6]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider all options:

A. False, because

$(a^2+b^2)(c^2+d^2)=a^2c^2+a^2d^2+b^2c^2+b^2d^2\\ \\(ab-cd)^2+(ac+bd)^2=a^2b^2-2abcd+c^2d^2+a^2c^2+2abcd+b^2d^2=\\ =a^2b^2+c^2d^2+a^2c^2+b^2d^2\\ \\a^2c^2+a^2d^2+b^2c^2+b^2d^2\neq a^2b^2+c^2d^2+a^2c^2+b^2d^2$

B. False, because

$(a^2-b^2)(c^2+d^2)=a^2c^2+a^2d^2-b^2c^2-b^2d^2\\ \\(ac-bd)^2-(ad+bc)^2=a^2c^2-2abcd+b^2d^2+a^2d^2+2abcd+b^2c^2=\\=a^2c^2+b^2d^2+a^2d^2+b^2c^2\\ \\a^2c^2+a^2d^2-b^2c^2-b^2d^2\neq a^2c^2+b^2d^2+a^2d^2+b^2c^2$

C. False, because

$(a^2+b^2)(c^2-d^2)=a^2c^2-a^2d^2+b^2c^2-b^2d^2\\ \\(ac+bd)^2-(ad+bc)^2=a^2c^2+2abcd+b^2d^2-a^2d^2-2abcd-b^2c^2=\\=a^2c^2+b^2d^2-a^2d^2-b^2c^2\\ \\a^2c^2-a^2d^2+b^2c^2-b^2d^2\neq a^2c^2+b^2d^2-a^2d^2-b^2c^2$

D. True, because

$(a^2+b^2)(c^2+d^2)=a^2c^2+a^2d^2+b^2c^2+b^2d^2\\ \\(ac-bd)^2-(ad+bc)^2=a^2c^2-2abcd+b^2d^2+a^2d^2+2abcd+b^2c^2=\\=a^2c^2+b^2d^2+a^2d^2+b^2c^2\\ \\a^2c^2+a^2d^2+b^2c^2+b^2d^2= a^2c^2+b^2d^2+a^2d^2+b^2c^2$
