\n" );
document.write( "A polynomial equation for the variable x and of the smallest degree with rational coefficients has one root of: sqrt(3)+ sqrt(2) all over sqrt(3)-sqrt(2)... and a second root of: sqrt(11)+sqrt(10) all over sqrt(11)-sqrt(10)..... If the coefficient of the x term in the polynomial equation is -52, find the coefficient of the x^2 term.
