As we learnt in

Properties of Binomial Theorem -

If ^{n}c_{r}= ^{n}c_{s} then

r= s \, or \, r+s= n

-

 

 Coefficient of x^{p}=\ ^{p+q}C_{p}  and Coefficient of  x^{q}=\ ^{p+q}C_{q}

They are equal 

\because\ \;^{n}C_{r}=\ ^{n}C_{n-r}

Correct option is 1.

 


Option 1)

equal

This is the correct option.

Option 2)

equal with opposite signs

This is an incorrect option.

Option 3)

reciprocals of each other

This is an incorrect option.

Option 4)

none of these.

This is an incorrect option.
