उत्तर

Given that, b = 0 and c < 0 and quadratic equation,

x2 + bx + c = 0  .....(i)

Put b = 0 in equation (i), we get

x2 + 0 + c = 0

⇒ x2 = – c   ......`[("Here"  c > 0),(therefore - c > 0)]`

∴ x = `+-  sqrt(-c)`

So, the roots of x2 + bx + c = 0 are numerically equal and opposite in sign.

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.
