Find if x = – 1 is a root of the equation 2x² – 3x + 1 = 0.

उत्तर
2x² – 3x + 1 = 0; x = -1.
Putting x = -1 in L.H.S. of equation
L.H.S. = 2(-1)2 - 3 x -1 + 1
= 2 + 3 + 1
= 6 ≠ 0 ≠ R.H.S.
Hence, x = -1 is not a root of the equation.

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.
