Correct Answer: 10
Solution : Given: $x^2-11x+1=0$ Divide both sides by $x$, we get $x-11+\frac{1}{x}=0$ ⇒ $x+\frac{1}{x}=11$ Squaring both sides we get ⇒ $x^2+\frac{1}{x^2}+2×x×\frac{1}{x}=11^2$ ⇒ $x^2+\frac{1}{x^2}=121-2$ ⇒ $x^2+\frac{1}{x^2}=119$ Again squaring both sides we get, ⇒ $x^4+\frac{1}{x^4}+2×x^2×\frac{1}{x^2}=119^2$ ⇒ $x^4+\frac{1}{x^4}=14161-2$ ⇒ $x^4+\frac{1}{x^4}-14159=0$ Multiplying with $x^4$ we get ⇒ $x^8-14159x^4+1=0$ $\therefore x^8-14159x^4+11=10$ Hence, the correct answer is 10.
