    If \[{{(7-4\sqrt{3})}^{{{x}^{2}}-4x+3}}+{{(7+4\sqrt{3})}^{{{x}^{2}}-4x+3}}=14\], then the value of x is given by

    A) \[2,\,\,2\pm \sqrt{2}\]              

    B)   \[2\pm \sqrt{3}\,,\,\,3\]

    C)   \[3\pm \sqrt{2}\,,\,\,2\]                        

    D)   None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Since \[(7+4\sqrt{3})(7-4\sqrt{3})=\,\,1\] \[\therefore \] The given equation becomes \[\,y+\frac{1}{y}=14\] where \[y={{(7-4\sqrt{3})}^{{{x}^{2}}-4x+3}}\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,{{y}^{2}}-14y+1=0\Rightarrow \,\,y=7\pm 4\sqrt{3}\] Now \[y=\,\,7+\,\,4\sqrt{3}\,\,\Rightarrow {{x}^{2}}-4x+3=-1\,\,\Rightarrow \,\,x=2\,\,,\,\,2\] Also \[y=\,\,7-\,4\sqrt{3}\,\,\Rightarrow {{x}^{2}}-4x+3=1\,\,\Rightarrow \,\,x=2\pm \,\,,\,\,\sqrt{2}\]
