Solution
L.H.S = `""^(2"n")"C"_"n"`
= `(2"n"!)/("n"!(2"n" - "n")!) = (2"n"!)/("n"!"n"!)`
= `((2"n")(2"n" - 1)(2"n" - 2)(2"n" - 3) ... 4*3*2*1)/("n"!"n"!)`
Numerator has n tems in wich n tems are even and n tems are odd.
Taking one 2 from the n even terms we get
= `(2("n")(2"n" - 1)(2)("n" - 1)(2"n" - 3) ... 2(2)*3*2(2)*1)/("n"!"n"!)`
= `(2^"n"[("n")("n" - 1)("n" - 2) .... 2*1][(2"n" -1)(2"n" - 3) .....3*1])/("n"!"n"!)`
= `(2^"n" xx "n"! (2"n" - 1(2"n" - 3) .... 3*1))/("n"!"n"!)`
= `(2^"n" xx 1 xx 3 xx 5 ... (2"n" - 3)(2"n" - 1))/("n"!)`
= R.H.S
