Very Short Answer Questions

1. If the quadratic equations 2 2 0ax bx c+ + = and 2 2 0ax cx b+ + = ( )b c have a

common root then show that a + 4b + 4c = 0

Sol: Let be the common root of 2 2 0ax bx c+ + = and 2 2 0ax cx b+ + =

2 2 0a b c + + =

2 2 0a c b + + =

a + 4b + 4c = 0

2. If 2 6 5 0x x + = and2

12 0x x p + = have a common root then find p

Sol: Let be the common root of 2 6 5 0x x + = and 2 12 0x x p + =

26 5 0 (1) + =

212 0 (2)p + =

From (1) ( 1) ( 5) 0 =

1 = pr 5=

Substituting 1= in (2) we have

1 12 0 11p p + = =

Substituting 5 = in (2) we have

3. If2

6 5 0x x + = and2

3 35 0x ax + = have a common root then find a

Sol: Let be the common root of 2 6 5 0x x+ + = and 2 3 35 0x ax + =

26 5 0 (1) + =

23 35 0 (2)a + =

From (1) we have

( 1)( 5) 0 =

1 = or 5 =

If 1 = then

21 3 (1) 35 0 12a a + = =

If 5 = then

4. If equations 2 0x ax b+ + = and 2 0x cx d+ + = have a common root and the first

equation has equal roots then prove that 2(b + d) = ac

Sol: Let be the common root of 2 0x ax b+ + = and 2 0x cx d+ + = since 2 0x ax b+ + =

has equal roots

5. Discuss the signs of the following quadratic expressions when x is real

i) 2 5 4x x +

here2 2

4 ( 5) 4(1) (4)b ac =

= a > 0

Roots are real

Coefficient of2

1 0x = >

Roots of2

5 4 0x x + =

Are 1, 4

By theorem 2

If x < < then 2ax bx c+ + and a have opposite sign here 1 = , 4 =

Coefficient of 2 0x >

21 4 5 4 0x x x < < + <

If x = 1 or x = 4 then

25 4 0x x + =

x < or x < then x < and a have same sign

1x < or 4x < then

25 4 0x x + >

ii)2

Here2 2

4 ( 1) 4(1) (3)b ac =

= 1 12 = - 11 < 0

There fore roots of the equation are imaginary coefficient of 2x is 1 > 0

Hence x R 2ax bx c+ + and a have same sign
