Practice deriving correlation from variance identities for two random variables. The solution explains why Var(X+Y) and Var(X) alone are insufficient, derives covariance and correlation when Var(Y) is known, simplifies the equal-variance case, and checks edge cases where correlation is invalid or inconsistent.
