1) Without solving the equations find the sum and product of the roots
a b c Sum:-b/a
a) y  x2  4 x  9
Product:c/a
sum:-4/1 = -4
product:-9/1 = -9

b)  x  1 . 3 x  2   14
3x^2 - 5x - 12

sum:5/3
product:-12/3 = -4

2) For the quadratic equation 2. m  1 x 2  4. m  1 x  m  2  0 , if the product of the roots is 1,
then find the value of m.
m - 2 = 2m + 2
So c/a is 1
m = -4

3) For the quadratic equation  p  4  x 2   2 p  4  x  p  1  0 if the sum of the roots is 3, then find
the value of p.
-b/a is 3
2p+4 3p-12 = 2p + 4
=3 p = 16
-(-2p-4) = 2p + 4 p-4

4) Let x1 and x2 be the roots of 3 x 2   m  6  x  4m  2  0 . If x1=-2, then find m and x2

P:c/a
-4m + 2
= x1 .x2= -2 .x2
3
(x-1)(3x+2) = 0
-2 is given
1 x2 = -2/3
4m + 6 = 2 ,m = -1
 sum:-b/a
product:c/a
5) Without finding the roots (x1 and x2) of quadratic equation 2 x2  5x  1  0 , find

1 1
a.  = x1 + x2 -5/2
x1 x2 = -5
=
x1 .x2 1/2

b. x12  x22 21/4

c. 3x12 x2  3x1 x22  2 x1  2 x2 -5/2

6) Find the equation of quadratic having the following roots

a. x1  3 and x2  4
x^2 - x - 12 = 0

b. x1  3  1 and x2  3  1

x^2 - (√3 +1)x + 2 = 0

7) The roots of 2 x2  3x  1  0 are x1 and x2 . Find the equation of quadratic having roots
 x1  4  and  x2  4  . x^2 - 6x - 38/4 finalanswer

x^2 - (sum)x + product= 0 Roots:x1 - 4 ,x2 - 4

Sum:x1 - 4 + x2 - 4
Sum = 3/2 = 6/4 x1 + x2 = 6/4
product= 1/2 = 2/4 6/4 - 32/4 = -24/4 = -6

Product:(x1-4).(x2-4)

-(4x1 + 4x2) = 24/4 = 6,6.-1 = -6

2 x1.x2 - 4x1 - 4x2 + 16 = -38/4
2/4 -6
