1. Set up the expression for the height of the cuboid
Height=Base AreaVolume=4+259+55
2. Rationalise the denominator by multiplying by the conjugate
Height=4+259+55×4−254−25
3. Expand and simplify the numerator and denominator
Numerator=(9)(4)+(9)(−25)+(55)(4)+(55)(−25)
=36−185+205−50
=−14+25
Denominator=42−(25)2
=16−20
=−4
4. Simplify the fraction to the required form
Height=−4−14+25
=−4−2(7−5)
=27−5
=21(7−5)
答案21(7−5)
