a)
\(M=\sqrt{9+4\sqrt{5}}-\sqrt{9-4\sqrt{5}}\)
\(=\sqrt{4+4\sqrt{5}+5}-\sqrt{4-4\sqrt{5}+5}\)
\(=\sqrt{\left(2+\sqrt{5}\right)^2}-\sqrt{\left(2-\sqrt{5}\right)^2}\)
\(=\left|2+\sqrt{5}\right|-\left|2-\sqrt{5}\right|\)
\(=2+\sqrt{5}-\left(\sqrt{5}-2\right)\) (vì \(2+2\sqrt{5}>0;2-\sqrt{5}< 0\) )
\(=2+\sqrt{5}-\sqrt{5}+2\\ =4\)
b)
\(N=\sqrt{8-2\sqrt{7}}-\sqrt{8+2\sqrt{7}}\)
\(=\sqrt{7-2\sqrt{7}+1}-\sqrt{7+2\sqrt{7}+1}\)
\(=\sqrt{\left(\sqrt{7}-1\right)^2}-\sqrt{\left(\sqrt{7}+1\right)^2}\)
\(=\left|\sqrt{7}-1\right|-\left|\sqrt{7}+1\right|\)
\(=\sqrt{7}-1-\left(\sqrt{7}+1\right)\) (vì \(\sqrt{7}-1>0;\sqrt{7}+1>0\) )
\(=\sqrt{7}-1-\sqrt{7}-1\\ =-2\)
