Answer:_______________




 

1)  

 Show that the root of the equation x2 + 2(a + b) x+2 (a2+b2)= 0 are unreal.



Answer: 2


SOLUTION 1 :

Let the given equation be Ax2 + Bx + C = 0

Thus, A = 1, B = 2(a + b), C = 2(a2 + b2)

Now, the discriminant of Ax2 + Bx + C = 0 is

B2 - 4AC = [ 2(a + b)]2 - 4 x 1 x 2 (a2 + b2)

    = 4(a + b)2 - 8(a2 + b2)

    = 4 (a2 + 2ab + b2) - 8a2 - 8b2

    = 4a2 + 8ab + 4b2 - 8a2 - 8b2

    = -4a2 + 8ab - 4b2

    = -4 (a2 - 2ab + b2)

    = -4 (a - b)2 < 0

Hence the roots of the given equation are unreal.

Answer: 16



4)  

 Find the sum of the first 20 terms of the geometric series.

  Answer: 154




5)  

 Factorize each of the following polynomials.

Answer: x-1 (4x2 - x - 6)



6)  

 If the root of the equation (a2 + b2)x2 - 2(ac + bd)x + c2 + d2 = 0,

where ad - bc   ≠   0, are equal, prove that ab   ≠    cd  



Answer: 2



SOLUTION 1 :

(a2 + b2)x2 - 2(ac + bd)x + c2 + d2 = 0

comparing with Ax2 + Bx + C = 0

we get A = a2 + b2, B = -2(ac + bd) , C = c2 + d2

given that the equation has equal roots.

in this  â–º=0

B2 - AC=0

[-2(ac + bd)]2 - 4[(a2 + b2) (c2 + d2)] = 0

4(a2c2 + 2abcd + b2d2) - 4(a2c2 + a2d2 +cb2c2 +cb2d2) = 0

a2c2 + 2abcd + b2d2 - a2c2 - a2d2 -b2c2 - b2d2= 0

2abcd - a2d2 - b2c2 = 0

(ad - bc)2 = 0

ad - bc = 0

ad = bc

ab = cd

Hence proved.

 



7)  

 Show that the root of the equation x2 + 2(a + b) x+2 (a2+b2)= 0 are unreal.



Answer: 2


SOLUTION 1 :

Let the given equation be Ax2 + Bx + C = 0

Thus, A = 1, B = 2(a + b), C = 2(a2 + b2)

Now, the discriminant of Ax2 + Bx + C = 0 is

B2 - 4AC = [ 2(a + b)]2 - 4 x 1 x 2 (a2 + b2)

    = 4(a + b)2 - 8(a2 + b2)

    = 4 (a2 + 2ab + b2) - 8a2 - 8b2

    = 4a2 + 8ab + 4b2 - 8a2 - 8b2

    = -4a2 + 8ab - 4b2

    = -4 (a2 - 2ab + b2)

    = -4 (a - b)2 < 0

Hence the roots of the given equation are unreal.
