Solution

The correct option is C 2n+1cosnπ3
α&β are root of x22x+4=0 we know
x=b±b24ac2a
x=(2)±(2)24×4×12×1
2±122
=1±3 for 1=i
So α=1+3i β=13L
now convert to
α=2(12+3i2)
α=2(cosπ3+isinπ3)
as well as
β=2(cosπ3isinπ3)
αn+βn=2n(cosnπ3+isinnπ3)+2n(cosπn3isinnπ3)
=2ncosnπ3+2nisinnπ3+2ncosnπ32nisinnπ3
=2.2ncosnπ3
αn+βn=2n+1cosnπ3
