dude just expand both the sides..... v get on simplification 2ab = 3(a^2)+3(b^2)....... then take 2ab on the rhs then cancelling common terms..... v get 1=3/2(a/b + b/a) i.e., 2/3= a/b + b/a.... u got???? is the answer correct??? gimme a reply....

(a^3+b^3)^2=(a^2+b^2)^3 then (a^3+b^3)^2=a^6[1+(b/a)^2]^3 (a^3+b^3)^2 / (a^6)=[1+(b/a)^2]^3 (1+(b/a)^3)^2=[1+(b/a)^2]^3 1+2(b/a)^3+(b/a)^6=1+3(b/a0^2+3(b/a)^4+(b/a)^6 cancelling 1+(b/a)^6 both sides we get 3(b/a)^2-2(b/a)^3+3(b/a)^4=0 dividing by (b/a)^3 3(b/a+a/b)=2 then a/b+b/a=2/3 thanks and regards M.MURALIKRISHNA askIITIANS FACULTY
