Question

What are fourier coefficients?

(a) The terms that are present in a fourier series

(b) The terms that are obtained through fourier series

(c) The terms which consist of the fourier series along with their sine or cosine values

(d) The terms which are of resemblance to fourier transform in a fourier series are called fourier series coefficients

The question was asked by my college director while I was bunking the class.

The above asked question is from Fourier Series & Coefficients topic in section Fourier Series of Signals and Systems

Answer 1

Correct option is (c) The terms which consist of the fourier series along with their sine or cosine values

Easiest explanation: The terms which consist of the fourier series along with their sine or cosine values are called fourier coefficients. Fourier coefficients are present in both exponential and trigonometric fourier series.
