    If \[x-\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{1+\sqrt{2}},\]then\[\frac{x+\sqrt{2}}{x+\sqrt{2}}+\frac{x+1}{x-1}\]will be equal a

    A)  \[\sqrt{2}\]

    B)  \[\sqrt{3}\]    

    C)  2

    D)  1

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[x=\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{1+\sqrt{2}}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[x+\sqrt{2}=+\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{1+\sqrt{2}}+\sqrt{2}\]
    \[=\frac{2\sqrt{2}-(\sqrt{2}+2)}{1+\sqrt{2}}=\frac{3\sqrt{2}+2}{1+\sqrt{2}}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[x-\sqrt{2}=\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{1+\sqrt{2}}-\sqrt{2}\]
    \[=\frac{2\sqrt{2}-(\sqrt{2}+2)}{1+\sqrt{2}}=\frac{\sqrt{2}-2}{1+\sqrt{2}}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]               \[x+1=\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{1+\sqrt{2}}+1\]
    \[=\frac{2\sqrt{2}+(1+\sqrt{2})}{1+\sqrt{2}}=\frac{1+3\sqrt{2}}{1+\sqrt{2}}\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]               \[x-1=\frac{2\sqrt{2}}{1+\sqrt{2}}-1\]
    \[=\frac{2\sqrt{2}-(1+\sqrt{2})}{1+\sqrt{2}}=\frac{\sqrt{2}-1}{1+\sqrt{2}}\]
    So, \[\frac{x+\sqrt{2}}{x-\sqrt{2}}+\frac{x+1}{x-1}=\frac{3\sqrt{2}+2}{\sqrt{2}-2}+1+\frac{3\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}-1}\]
    \[=\frac{(3\sqrt{2}+2)(\sqrt{2-1})+(1+3\sqrt{2})(\sqrt{2-2})}{(\sqrt{2}-2)(\sqrt{2}-1)}\]
    \[=\frac{(6+2\sqrt{2}-3\sqrt{2}-2)+(\sqrt{2}+6-2-6\sqrt{2})}{2-2\sqrt{2}-\sqrt{2}+2}\]
    \[=\frac{(4-\sqrt{2})+(4-5\sqrt{2})}{4-3\sqrt{2}}\]
    \[=\frac{8-6\sqrt{2}}{4-3\sqrt{2}}=\frac{2\,\,(4-3\sqrt{2})}{4-3\sqrt{2}}=2\]
