    If \[x={{\left( 2+\sqrt{3} \right)}^{n}}\], then find the value of \[x\,\left( 1-\left\{ x \right\} \right)\] where {x} denotes the fractional part of x                     

    A) 1

    B) 2

    C) \[{{2}^{2n}}\]

    D) \[{{2}^{n}}\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] \[x={{\left( 2+\sqrt{3} \right)}^{n}}\]
    \[={{\,}^{n}}{{C}_{0}}{{2}^{n}}+{{\,}^{n}}{{C}_{1}}{{2}^{n-1}}\sqrt{3}+{{\,}^{n}}{{C}_{2}}{{2}^{n-1}}{{\left( \sqrt{3} \right)}^{2}}+...\]
    Let        \[{{x}_{1}}={{\left( 2-\sqrt{3} \right)}^{n}}\]
    \[={{\,}^{n}}{{C}_{0}}{{2}^{n}}-{{\,}^{n}}{{C}_{1}}{{2}^{n-1}}\sqrt{3}+{{\,}^{n}}{{C}_{2}}{{2}^{n-2}}{{\left( \sqrt{3} \right)}^{2}}+...\]
    \[x+{{x}_{1}}=2\left( ^{n}{{C}_{0}}{{2}^{n}}+{{\,}^{n}}{{C}_{2}}{{2}^{n-2}}{{\left( \sqrt{3} \right)}^{2}}+... \right)\]
    = Even integer.
    Clearly, \[x,\in (0,1)\forall n\in N\]
    \[\Rightarrow [x]+\{x\}+{{x}_{1}}=\] Even integer
    \[\Rightarrow \{x\}+{{x}_{1}}=\,\,Integer\,\,\{x\}\in (0,\,\,1),{{x}_{1}}\in (0,\,\,1)\]
    \[\Rightarrow \{x\}+{{x}_{1}}\in (0,2)\]
    \[\Rightarrow \{x\}+{{x}_{1}}=1\Rightarrow {{x}_{1}}=1-\{x\}\]
    \[\Rightarrow x(1-\{x\})=x.{{x}_{1}}={{\left( 2+\sqrt{3} \right)}^{n}}{{\left( 2-\sqrt{3} \right)}^{n}}=1\]
