Start by squaring both sides got remove the sqrt
[(a+b)/2]^2 ≥ ab
(a^2 +2ab +b^2 )/4≥ ab
Multiply both sides by 4
a^2 +2ab +b^2 ≥ 4ab
Subtract 2ab from both sides
a^2 + b^2 ≥ 2ab
Subtract 2ab from both sides
a^2 - 2ab + b^2 ≥ 0
Use quadratic equation to solve where a = 1 and b = -2b
2b ± sqrt[(-2b)^2 - (4x1xb^2)]/(2x1)
2b ± sqrt[4b^2 - 4b^2]/2
(2b ± 0)/2
a = b
Substituting for b in the equation a^2 + b^2 ≥ 2ab
2a^2 ≥ 2a^2
