उत्तर
If the quadratic equation kx2 + kx + 1 = 0 has real and distinct roots, the value of k is 0 or 4.
Explanation:
Given quadratic equation be,
kx2 + kx + 1 = 0
On comparing with ax2 + bx + c = 0
We have, a = k; b = k; c = 1
Here D = b2 – 4ac
= k2 – 4k
Since given equation has equal roots
∴ D = 0
`\implies` k2 – 4k = 0
`\implies` k(k – 4) = 0
`\implies` k = 0 or 4
