The value of x = 2 + 2 + 2 + ..... is - Vidyadip

MCQ

The value of $x = \sqrt {2 + \sqrt {2 + \sqrt {2 + .....} } } $is

A
$-1$
B
$1$
✓
$2$
D
$3$

✓

Answer

Correct option: C.

$2$

c
(c) $x = \sqrt {2 + x} $$⇒$ ${x^2} - x - 2 = 0$

$⇒$ $(x - 2)(x + 1) = 0$ $⇒$ $x = 2, - 1$

But $\sqrt {2 + \sqrt {2 + .....} } \ne - 1$, so it is equal to $2.$
