उत्तर
No, a quadratic equation with integral coefficients may or may not have integral roots.
Justification:
Consider the following equation,
8x2 – 2x – 1 = 0
The roots of the given equation are `1/2` and `-1/4` which are not integers.
Hence, a quadratic equation with integral coefficient might or might not have integral roots.

Complete the following activity to determine the nature of the roots of the quadratic equation x2 + 2x – 9 = 0 :
Solution :
Compare x2 + 2x – 9 = 0 with ax2 + bx + c = 0
a = 1, b = 2, c = `square`
∴ b2 – 4ac = (2)2 – 4 × `square` × `square`
Δ = 4 + `square` = 40
∴ b2 – 4ac > 0
∴ The roots of the equation are real and unequal.
