उत्तर
2x² – kx + k = 0
a = 2, b = -k, c = k
∴ b2 - 4ac
= (-k)2 - 4 x 2 x 4
= k2 - 8k
∴ Roots are equal.
∴ b2 - 4ac = 0
k2 - 8k = 0
⇒ k(k - 8) = 0
Either k = 0
or
k - 8 = 0,
then k = 8
k = 0, 8.

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.
