Let α, α + 1 be roots
α + α + 1 = b
α(α + 1) = c
∴ b2 – 4c = (2α + 1)2 - 4α(α + 1) = 1.
The quadratic equations x2 – 6x + a = 0 and x2 – cx + 6 = 0 have one root in common. The other roots of the first and second equations are integers in the ratio 4 : 3. Then the common root is
All the values of m for which both roots of the equations x2 − 2mx + m2 − 1 = 0 are greater than −2 but less than 4, lie in the interval
If the cube roots of unity are 1, ω, ω2 then the roots of the equation (x – 1)3 + 8 = 0, are
The value of α for which the sum of the squares of the roots of the equation x2 – (a – 2)x – a – 1 = 0 assume the least value is
If roots of the equation x2 – bx + c = 0 be two consectutive integers, then b2 – 4c equals
