Discuss the nature of the roots of the following quadratic equations : `x^2 - (1)/(2)x + 4` = 0
उत्तर
`x^2 - (1)/(2)x + 4` = 0
Here a = 1, b = `-(1)/(2)`, c = 1
∴ D = b2 - 4ac
= `(-1/2) - 4 xx 1 xx 4`
= `(1)/(4) - 16`
= `-(63)/(4)`
∵ D < 0
∴ Roots are not real.

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.
