If `n` be a natural number define polynomial `f_(n)(x)` of `n^(th)` degree as follows `f_(n)(costheta)cosntheta` i.e. `f_(2)(x)=2x^(2)-1 f_(3)(x)=4x^(3)-3x_(1)` Then`f_(6)(x)` is equal toA. `36x^(6)-48x^(4)+18x^(2)-5`B. `32x^(6)-48x^(4)+18x^(2)-1`C. `36x^(6)-45x^(4)+18x^(2)-8`D. `36x^(6)-48x^(4)+18x^(2)-7`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
As, `f(x)=x` & `cos(n+1)theta+cos(n-1)theta=2cos(ntheta).costheta`
`f_((n+1))(x)+f_((n-1))=2x.f_(n)(x)`
`f_(n)(x)=1/(2x)[f_(n+1)(x)+f_(n-1)(x)]`
Now, Put `x=costheta, impliessqrt(x^(2)-1)=isintheta`
`(x+sqrt(x^(2)-1))^(10)+(x-sqrt(x^(2)-1))^(10)=(costheta+isintheta)^(10)+(costheta-isintheta)^(10)`
`=2cos(10theta)=2f_(10)(costheta)=2f_(10)(x)`
