`((a^(x^(4)))/(a^(y^(4))))^((1)/(x^2+y^2))xx((a^(y^(4)))/(a^(z^(4))))^((1)/(y^2+z^2))xx((az^(4))/(a^(x^(4))))^((1)/(z^2+z^2))=`________A. 1B. 2C. 3D. 4

Answer» Correct Answer - A
`((a^(x^(4)))/(a^(y^(4))))^((1)/(x^2+y^2))xx(a^(y^(4))/(a^(z^4)))^((1)/(y^2+z^2))xx((a^(z^(1)))/(a^(x^(4))))^((1)/(z^2+x^2))`
`=(a^(x^(4)))^((1)/(x^2+y^2))xx(a^(y^(4-z^4)))^((1)/(y^2+z^2))xx(a^(z^(4-x^4)))^((1)/(z^2+x^2))`
`=a((x^2-y^2)(x^2+y^2))/(x^3+y^2)xxa((y^2-z^2)(y^2+z^2))/(y^3+z^2)xxa((z^2-x^2)(z^2+x^2))/(z^3+x^2)`
`=a^(x^2-y^2+y^2-z^2+z^2-x^2)=a^0=1`
Hence , the correct option is (a).

Which of the folowing is the ascending order of `2^(1152), 3^(768), and 5^(384)`A. `5^(384), 3^(768), and 2^(1152)`B. `5^(384), 2^(1152), and 3^(768)`C. `5^(389), 5^(314), and 2^(1152)`D. `2^(1152), 3^(768), and 5^(384)`

Answer» Correct Answer - B
Let us take GCD of `1152,768` , and 384 , which is 384.
`therefore 2^1152=(2^3)^384=8^384`
`3^768=(3^2)^384=9^(384)`
`5^384=(5)^384`
`therefore` The asceding order is as follows :
`5^384, 8^384, 9^384`
i.e., `5^384, 2^1152, and 3^768`
Hence, the correct option is (b).
