Solution

 (0, 2)

\[Let\]

\[f\left( x \right) = a x^3 + b x^2 + cx + d . . . . . \left( 1 \right)\]

\[f\left( 0 \right) = d\]

\[f\left( 2 \right) = 8a + 4b + 2c + d\]

\[ = 2\left( 4a + 2b + c \right) + d\]

\[ = d \left( \because \left( 4a + 2b + c \right) = 0 \right)\]

f is continuous in the closed interval [0, 2] and is derivable in the open interval (0, 2).
Also, f(0) = f(2)
By Rolle's Theorem,

\[f'\left( \alpha \right) = 0        \text{ for }  0 < \alpha < 2\] 
 
\[\text { Now },   f'\left( x \right) = 3a x^2  + 2bx + c\] 
 
\[ \Rightarrow f'\left( \alpha \right) = 3a \alpha^2  + 2b\alpha + c = 0\] 
 
\[\text { Equation }  \left( 1 \right)  \text{has  atleast  one  root  in  the  interval } \left( 0, 2 \right) . \] 
\[\text { Thus,}   f'\left( x \right)  \text{must  have  root  in  the  interval }  \left( 0, 2 \right) .\]
