If x is a solution of the equation, $$\sqrt {2x + 1} $$ $$ - \sqrt {2x - 1} = 1,$$ $$\,\,\left( {x \ge {1 \over 2}} \right),$$ then $$\sqrt {4{x^2} - 1} $$ is equal to :

If the equations x² + bx−1 = 0 and x² + x + b = 0 have a common root different from −1, then $$\left| b \right|$$ is equal to :

The sum of all real values of $$x$$ satisfying the equation $${\left( {{x^2} - 5x + 5} \right)^{{x^2} + 4x - 60}}\, = 1$$ is :

Let $$\alpha $$ and $$\beta $$ be the roots of equation $${x^2} - 6x - 2 = 0$$. If $${a_n} = {\alpha ^n} - {\beta ^n},$$ for $$n \ge 1,$$ then the value of $${{{a_{10}} - 2{a_8}} \over {2{a_9}}}$$ is equal to :
