Hence )()( 21 nxnx = . Thus the signals are identical and consequently indistinguishable.
If we are given the sampled values generated by n2
cosπ , there is some ambiguity as to
whether these sampled values correspond to x1(t) or x2(t). Since x2(t) yields exactly thesame values as x1(t) when the two are sampled at Fs = 40 samples per second, we say thatthe frequency F2 = 50 Hz is an alias of the frequency F1 = 10 Hz at the sampling rate of40 samples per second.

Thus Fmax = 150 Hz and according to the sampling theorem

The Nyquist rate is FN = 2Fmax. Hence
FN = 300 Hz.
Discussion
It should be observed that the signal component tπ300sin10 , sampled at the Nyquistrate FN = 300 Hz, results in samples nπsin10 , which are identically zero. In otherwords, we are sampling the analog signal at its zero-crossing points, and hence we missthe signal component completely. This situation would not occur if the sinusoid is offsetin phase by some amount θ. In such a case we have )300sin(10 θπ +t sampled at theNyquist rate FN = 300 samples per second, which yields the samples

Thus if 0≠θ or π, the samples of the sinusoid taken at Nyquist rate are not all zero.However, we still cannot obtain the correct amplitude from the samples when the phase θis unknown. A simple remedy that avoids this potentially troublesome situation is tosample the analog signal at a rate higher than the Nyquist rate.

Since Fs = 5000 Hz, the folding frequency is Fs/2 = 2500 Hz. This is the maximumfrequency that can be represented uniquely by the sampled signal.

c) Since only the frequency components at 1000 Hz and 2000 Hz are present in thesampled signal, the analog signal that can be recovered is
ttty )2000(2sin5)1000(2cos13)( ππ −=
which is obviously different from the original signal x(t). This distortion of the originalanalog signal was caused by the aliasing effect, due to the low sampling rate used.
