    Which one of the following is true?                                                                                  [SSC (10+2) 2014]

    A) \[\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{3}>\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{2}\]

    B) \[\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{3}<\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{2}\]

    C) \[\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{3}=\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{2}\]

    D) \[(\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{3})=(\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{2})=1\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[{{(\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{3})}^{2}}=5+3+2\sqrt{15}=8+2\sqrt{15}\]
    and \[{{(\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{2})}^{2}}=6+2+2\sqrt{12}=8+2\sqrt{12}\]
    Again, \[8+2\sqrt{15}>8+2\sqrt{12}\]
    \[\therefore \] \[\sqrt{5}+\sqrt{3}>\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{2}\]
