ans:36.

2).g is a g.m between a & b then 1/g^2-a^2+1/g^2-B^2=

ans:1/g^2.

pl solve those problems.

sign used in your problem is not proper, so you can post scanned copy of your querry.

there is no wrong in sign of problems.please solve this.g^2 means g square.

for 2. 

1/(g^2-a^2) + 1/(g^2-b^2)

=1/(g^2-g^4/b^2) + 1/(g^2-b^2)  ( gis G.M., so,g^2=ab, g^4=a^2b^2,so a^2=g^4/b^2..in this step we have substituted a^2)

=b^2/(g^2 b^2-g^4) + 1/(g^2-b^2)(by solving the denominator,b^2 goes to the numerator)

=b^2/-g^2(g^2-b^2) + 1/(g^2-b^2)( -b square is taken out commen in denominator).

=(b^2-g^2)/-g^2(g^2-b^2) ((taking (g^2-b^2) as LCM and solving the fraction ))

=1/g^2  (( in the numerator we take out  (-) sign common so,  (g^2-b^2)gets cancelled ))

=1/g^2
