If m:n = 13:111, find m2 - n2 : (m + n)2

A.

1:11

B.

1:13

C.

1:10

D.

1:12

Correct Answer: 1:12

Explanation

m : n = 13 : 11 m2 - n2 = (m - n)2 = 132 - 112 : (13 + 11)2 = 169 - 121 : 242 = 48 : 576 = 1 : 12

m : n = 13 : 11 m2 - n2 = (m - n)2 = 132 - 112 : (13 + 11)2 = 169 - 121 : 242 = 48 : 576 = 1 : 12
