      If (a + b) = 9 and (a2 + b2) = 53,

      then find the value of (a Γ— b).
      A 12 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 14 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 10 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 8 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      (a + b) = 9 Squaring on both sides, we get, a2 + b2 + 2ab = 81 Or, 53 + 2ab = 81 Or, 2ab = 81 – 53 = 28 Or, ab = 28/2 = 14
