उत्तर
Given that,
`\implies 3x^2 - 2x + 1/3` = 0
Discriminant = `(-2)^2 - 4(3)(1/3)`
= 4 – 4
= 0
So, the given quadratic equation has real and equal 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.
