    The coefficient of \[{{x}^{20}}\] in the expansion of\[{{(1+{{x}^{2}})}^{40}}{{\left( {{x}^{2}}+2+\frac{1}{{{x}^{2}}} \right)}^{-5}}\], is

    A) \[^{30}{{C}_{10}}\]                                         

    B) \[^{30}{{C}_{25}}\]

    C) \[1\]                                     

    D)  None of these

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    We have, the expression                 \[{{(1+{{x}^{2}})}^{40}}{{\left( {{x}^{2}}+2+\frac{1}{{{x}^{2}}} \right)}^{-5}}\]                 \[={{(1+{{x}^{2}})}^{40}}{{\left\{ {{\left( x+\frac{1}{x} \right)}^{2}} \right\}}^{-5}}\]                 \[={{(1+{{x}^{2}})}^{40}}{{\left( \frac{{{x}^{2}}+1}{x} \right)}^{-10}}\]                 \[={{x}^{10}}{{(1+{{x}^{2}})}^{30}}\] Now, coefficient of \[{{x}^{20}}\] in the expansion of\[{{x}^{10}}{{(1+{{x}^{2}})}^{20}}\] = coefficient of \[{{x}^{10}}\] in the expansion of\[{{(1+{{x}^{2}})}^{30}}\] = coefficient of \[{{x}^{10}}\] in \[(1{{+}^{30}}{{C}_{1}}x{{+}^{30}}{{C}_{2}}{{x}^{4}}{{+}^{30}}{{C}_{x}}^{6}{{+}^{30}}{{C}_{4}}{{x}^{8}}\]                                                                 \[{{+}^{30}}{{C}_{5}}{{x}^{10}}+...)\]                 \[{{=}^{30}}{{C}_{5}}\]                 \[{{=}^{30}}{{C}_{25}}\]                 \[(\because \,{{\,}^{n}}{{C}_{r}}{{=}^{n}}{{C}_{n-r}})\]
