MCQ
The value of $\sqrt {[12 - \sqrt {(68 + 48\sqrt 2 )} ]} = $
  • A
    $2 + \sqrt 2 $
  • $2 - \sqrt 2 $
  • C
    $\sqrt 2 - 1$
  • D
    None of these

Answer

Correct option: B.
$2 - \sqrt 2 $
b
(b) $\sqrt {12 - \sqrt {68 + 48\sqrt 2 } } = \sqrt {12 - \sqrt {{6^2} + {{(4\sqrt 2 )}^2} + 2.6.4\sqrt 2 } } $

$= \sqrt {12 - \sqrt {{{(6 + 4\sqrt 2 )}^2}} } $= $\sqrt {12 - 6 - 4\sqrt 2 } = \sqrt {6 - 4\sqrt 2 } $

$= \sqrt {{2^2} + {{(\sqrt 2 )}^2} - 2\,.\,2\sqrt 2 } = 2 - \sqrt 2 $.
