If ^m C_ 1 = ^n C_ 2 , is then: - Vidyadip

MCQ

If ${^\text{m}}\text{C}_{\text{1}}={^\text{n}}\text{C}_{\text{2}},$ is then:

A
2m = n
B
2m = n(n + 1)
✓
2m = n(n - 1)
D
2n = m(m - 1)

✓

Answer

Correct option: C.

2m = n(n - 1)

${^\text{m}}\text{C}_{\text{1}}={^\text{n}}\text{C}_{\text{2}}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{\text{m!}}{1!(\text{m}-1)!}=\frac{\text{n!}}{2!(\text{n}-2)!}$
$\Rightarrow \frac{\text{m}(\text{m}-1)!}{(\text{m}-1)!}=\frac{\text{n}(\text{n}-1)(\text{n}-2)!}{2!(\text{n}-2)!}$
$\Rightarrow2\text{m}=\text{n}(\text{n}-1)$
