    Solve \[\sqrt{25-{{x}^{2}}}=(x-1)\]

    A) 4, 3      

    B)  \[-\,\,4,3\]

    C)  \[4,\,\,-3\]

    D)  \[-\,\,4,-\,\,3\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[\sqrt{25-{{x}^{2}}}=(x-1)\] On squaring both sides, we get \[(25-{{x}^{2}})={{(x-1)}^{2}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[(25-{{x}^{2}})=({{x}^{2}}-2x+1)\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[2{{x}^{2}}-2x-24=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[{{x}^{2}}-x-12=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[{{x}^{2}}-4x+3x-12=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[x\,\,(x-4)+3\,\,(x-4)=0\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[(x-4)(x+3)=0\]\[\Rightarrow \]\[x=4\] or \[x=-\,\,3\]
