उत्तर
The given quadric equation is x2 + kx + 4 = 0, and roots are real.
Then find the value of k.
Here,
a = 1, b = k and c = 4
As we know that D = b2 − 4ac
Putting the value of a = 1, b = k and c = 4
= k2 − 4 × (1) × (4)
= k2 − 16
The given equation will have real and equal roots, if D = 0
k2 − 16 = 0
Now factorizing of the above equation
k2 − 16 = 0
k2 = 16
`k=sqrt16`
k = ± 4
Now according to question, the value of k is positive.
Therefore, the value of k = 4

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.
