DT=\sqrt{1-2\sqrt{2}+\left(\sqrt{2}\right)^{2}}
Use binomial theorem \left(a-b\right)^{2}=a^{2}-2ab+b^{2} to expand \left(1-\sqrt{2}\right)^{2}.
DT=\sqrt{1-2\sqrt{2}+2}
The square of \sqrt{2} is 2.
DT=\sqrt{3-2\sqrt{2}}
Add 1 and 2 to get 3.
TD=\sqrt{3-2\sqrt{2}}
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{TD}{T}=\frac{\sqrt{2}-1}{T}
Divide both sides by T.
D=\frac{\sqrt{2}-1}{T}
Dividing by T undoes the multiplication by T.
DT=\sqrt{1-2\sqrt{2}+\left(\sqrt{2}\right)^{2}}
Use binomial theorem \left(a-b\right)^{2}=a^{2}-2ab+b^{2} to expand \left(1-\sqrt{2}\right)^{2}.
DT=\sqrt{1-2\sqrt{2}+2}
The square of \sqrt{2} is 2.
DT=\sqrt{3-2\sqrt{2}}
Add 1 and 2 to get 3.
\frac{DT}{D}=\frac{\sqrt{2}-1}{D}
Divide both sides by D.
T=\frac{\sqrt{2}-1}{D}
Dividing by D undoes the multiplication by D.
