Detailed Solution

Given equation of alternating current
i=42sin2πTt+10A
From given equation we get 
i=i1+i2
Where, i1=42sin2πTtA and i2=10A
Now, i1 is oscillating current, whereas i2 is direct current and its value does not change with time.
i1rms=422=21Ai2rms=10A
We know that
irms2=i1rms2+i2rms2
Substituting the values we get
irms=(21)2+102=121irms=11A
