$\root 4 \of {(17 + 12\sqrt 2 )} = $
A
$\sqrt 2 + 1$
B
${2^{1/4}}(\sqrt 2 + 1)$
C
$2\sqrt 2 + 1$
D
None of these
Solution
(a) $\sqrt {(17 + 12\sqrt 2 )} $$ = \sqrt {[{3^2} + {{(2\sqrt 2 )}^2} + 2.3.2\sqrt 2 ]} = 3 + 2\sqrt 2 $
$\therefore \sqrt[4]{{(17 + 12\sqrt 2 )}} = \sqrt {(3 + 2\sqrt 2 )} = \sqrt 2 + 1$
