Solution

The correct option is B

x = $\sqrt{a + \sqrt{a + \sqrt{a + \sqrt{a + . . . . . . \infty}}}}$

$\Rightarrow$ x = $\sqrt{(a + x)}$ $\Rightarrow$ $x^{2} - x - a$ = 0

$\Rightarrow$ x = $\frac{1}{2} [1 \pm \sqrt{(1 + 4 a)}]$

$∴$ x = $\frac{1}{2} [1 \pm \sqrt{(1 + 4 a)}]$ .

Rejecting other value of x which is negative while x must be positive.

If a > 0, then √{a+√(a+....)}=

The correct option is B x = √a+√a+√a+√a+......∞ ⇒ x = √(a+x) ⇒ x2−x−a = 0 ⇒ x = 12[1±√(1+4a)] ∴ x = 12[1±√(1+4a)] . Rejecting other value of x which is negative while x must be positive.
