उत्तर
P(s) = 4s2 – 4s + 1
4s2 – 2s – 2s + 1 = 0
2s(2s – 1) – 1(2s – 1) = 0
(2s – 1) (2s – 1) = 0
s = `1/2`, s = `1/2`
a = 4, b = – 4, c = 1, ∝ = `1/2`, β = `1/2`
∝ + β = `(-b)/a`, ∝β = `c/a`
`1/2 + 1/2 = (-4)/4, (1/2)(1/2) = 1/4`
`(1 + 1)/2 = (+4)/4, 1/4 = 1/4`
`2/2` = 1
1 = 1

The figure given alongside shows the path of a diver, when she takes a jump from the diving board. Clearly it is a parabola.
Annie was standing on a diving board, 48 feet above the water level. She took a dive into the pool. Her height (in feet) above the water level at any time ‘t’ in seconds is given by the polynomial h(t) such that h(t) = -16t2 + 8t + k.
The zeroes of the polynomial r(t) = -12t2 + (k - 3)t + 48 are negative of each other. Then k is ______.
Basketball and soccer are played with a spherical ball. Even though an athlete dribbles the ball in both sports, a basketball player uses his hands and a soccer player uses his feet. Usually, soccer is played outdoors on a large field and basketball is played indoor on a court made out of wood. The projectile (path traced) of soccer ball and basketball are in the form of parabola representing quadratic polynomial.
