Given, Â $$x^4+\frac{1}{x^4}=14159$$
$$\Rightarrow$$ Â $$x^4+\frac{1}{x^4}+2=14159+2$$
$$\Rightarrow$$ Â $$\left(x^2+\frac{1}{x^2}\right)^2=14161$$
$$\Rightarrow$$ Â $$\left(x^2+\frac{1}{x^2}\right)^2=\left(119\right)^2$$
$$\Rightarrow$$ Â $$x^2+\frac{1}{x^2}=119$$
$$\Rightarrow$$ Â $$x^2+\frac{1}{x^2}+2=119+2$$
$$\Rightarrow$$ Â $$\left(x+\frac{1}{x}\right)^2=121$$
$$\Rightarrow$$ Â $$x+\frac{1}{x}=11$$
Hence, the correct answer is Option A
