Question : If $a^2+b^2+1=2 a$, then the value of $a^4+b^7$ is:
Option 1: 1
Option 2: 0
Option 3: 2
Option 4: 4
Correct Answer: 1
Solution : Given: $a^2+b^2+1=2 a$ ⇒ $a^2+b^2+1-2a=0$ ⇒ $a^2+1-2a+b^2=0$ ⇒ $(a-1)^2+b^2=0$ If the sum of the squares of two numbers is zero then both the numbers are zero. So, $(a-1)=0$ and $b=0$ $\therefore a=1,b=0$ Putting the values, we get $a^4+b^7=1+0=1$ Hence, the correct answer is 1.
