Solve for $$x:\,\sqrt {x + 1} - \sqrt {x - 1} = 1.$$

Solve the following equation for $$x:\,\,2\,{\log _x}a + {\log _{ax}}a + 3\,\,{\log _{{a^2}x}}\,a = 0,a > 0$$

If $$\left( {m\,,\,n} \right) = {{\left( {1 - {x^m}} \right)\left( {1 - {x^{m - 1}}} \right).......\left( {1 - {x^{m - n + 1}}} \right)} \over {\left( {1 - x} \right)\left( {1 - {x^2}} \right).........\left( {1 - {x^n}} \right)}}$$

where $$m$$ and $$n$$ are positive integers $$\left( {n \le m} \right),$$ show that
$$\left( {m,n + 1} \right) = \left( {m - 1,\,n + 1} \right) + {x^{m - n - 1}}\left( {m - 1,n} \right).$$

Show that the square of $$\,{{\sqrt {26 - 15\sqrt 3 } } \over {5\sqrt 2 - \sqrt {38 + 5\sqrt 3 } }}$$ is a rational number.
