Note again the typos in the solution. For example the ##1/\sqrt 2## multiplying only one of the terms. The amount of typos in your problems is really beyond critisism. It is outright embarrassing to whatever institution is giving these out.

Valid critisism. I have no idea where OP is studying, but I know that in every single problem they have posted the provided solution has been full of typos. Many times those typos have been the source of OP’s confusion.
