    Harmonic mean of the two numbers\[\frac{a}{1-ab}\]and \[\frac{a}{1+ab}\]is

    A)  \[\frac{1}{1-{{a}^{2}}{{b}^{2}}}\]

    B)  \[\frac{a}{1-{{a}^{2}}{{b}^{2}}}\]

    C)  \[a\]

    D)  \[\frac{a}{\sqrt{1-{{a}^{2}}{{b}^{2}}}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     Harmonic mean of given numbers \[=\frac{2\left( \frac{a}{1-ab} \right)\left( \frac{a}{1+ab} \right)}{\frac{a}{1-ab}+\frac{a}{1+ab}}\] \[=\frac{2{{a}^{2}}}{a(1+ab)+a(1-ab)}\] \[=\frac{2{{a}^{2}}}{a+{{a}^{2}}b+a-{{a}^{2}}b}=\frac{2{{a}^{2}}}{2a}=a\]
