Find the discriminant of the following equations and hence find the nature of roots: 3x2 + 2x - 1 = 0
उत्तर
3x2 + 2x - 1 = 0
Here a = 3, b = 2, c = -1
∴ D = b2 - 4ac
= (2)2 - 4 x 3 x (-1)
= 4 + 12
= 16
∴ Discriminant = 16
∵ D > 0
∴ Roots are real and distinct.

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.
