    If \[\sqrt{2}=1.4142,\]find the value of   \[2\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{2}+\frac{1}{2+\sqrt{2}}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}-2}\]                            [SSC (CGL) 2011]

    A) 1.4144             

    B) 2.8284

    C) 28.284             

    D) None of these

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Expression \[=2\sqrt{2}+\sqrt{2}+\frac{1}{2+\sqrt{2}}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}-2}\]
    \[=3\sqrt{2}+\left( \frac{1}{2+\sqrt{2}}+\frac{1}{2-\sqrt{2}} \right)\]
    \[=3\sqrt{2}+\left( \frac{2-\sqrt{2}+2+\sqrt{2}}{(2+\sqrt{2})(2-\sqrt{2})} \right)\]
    \[=3\sqrt{2}+\frac{4}{2}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[3\sqrt{2}+2=3\times 1.414+2=6.242\]
