SSC CGL - 17 Sep 2025 - Shift 1 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q75

Simplify:(12+63)\sqrt{(12+6\sqrt3)}

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e.  3+33 +\sqrt3.

(a + b)2 = a2 + b2 + 2ab

(12+63)\sqrt{(12+6\sqrt3)}

=(9+3+2×3×3)=\sqrt{(9+3+2\times3\times\sqrt3)}

=[32+(3)2+2×3×3]=\sqrt{\big[3^2+(\sqrt3)^2+2\times3\times\sqrt3\big]}

=(3+3)2=\sqrt{(3+\sqrt3)^2}

=3+3=3 +\sqrt3
