Question
Question: If the roots of the equation \(\left( p ^ { 2 } + q ^ { 2 } \right) x ^ { 2 }\) \(a^{2} + c^{2} = - ...
If the roots of the equation (p2+q2)x2 a2+c2=−ab + a2−c2=−ab be real and equal, then a2−c2=abwill be in.
A
A.P.
B
G.P.
C
H.P.
D
None of these
Answer
G.P.
Explanation
Solution
Given equation is
ad+bc=0
Roots are real and equal, then
ba=dc
⇒x2−2(1+3k)x+
⇒ 7(3+2k)=0
⇒ 1,−910⇒2,−910
Hence 3,−910. Thus p, q, r in G.P.
