1. Find if the coefficients of in the expansion of are equal.
Answer:
It is known that in the binomial expansion of is given by
Assuming that occurs in the term in the expansion of
Comparing the indices of in and in ,
So, the coefficient of is
Assuming that occurs in the term in the expansion of
Comparing the indices of in and in , we obtain
So, the coefficient of is
It is given that the coefficients of and are the same.
So, the required value of is
