    If \[\cos \,\left( 2{{\sin }^{-1}}x \right)=\frac{1}{9},\]then; x=

    A) Only \[2/3\]          

    B)               Only \[-2/3\]

    C) \[2/3,-2/3\]          

    D)    Neither \[2/3\] nor\[-2/3\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     \[\cos \,\left( 2{{\sin }^{-1}}x \right)=\frac{1}{9}\Rightarrow \cos \left( {{\sin }^{-1}}2x\sqrt{1-{{x}^{2}}} \right)=\frac{1}{9}\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,\cos \left( {{\cos }^{-1}}\sqrt{1-4{{x}^{2}}+4{{x}^{4}}} \right)=\frac{1}{9}\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,1-2{{x}^{2}}=\frac{1}{9}\Rightarrow 2{{x}^{2}}=1-\frac{1}{9}=\frac{8}{9}\Rightarrow {{x}^{2}}=\frac{4}{9}\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,x=\pm \frac{2}{3}\]
