Multiple choice
For the pure state ψ=cos(θ)00+sin(θ)11|\psi\rangle = \cos(\theta)|00\rangle + \sin(\theta)|11\rangle with θ=π/8\theta = \pi/8, the concurrence is C=sin(2θ)C = |\sin(2\theta)|. The entanglement of formation is EF=h(x)E_F = h(x), where x=(1+1C2)/2x = (1 + \sqrt{1 - C^2})/2 and h(x)=xlog2(x)(1x)log2(1x)h(x) = -x\log_2(x) - (1-x)\log_2(1-x) is the binary entropy. What is EFE_F, in ebits?
