Complete the table 6 QE Standard form a b c 1 1 1 QE Standard form a b c 1 1 1
Essential Question How are the sum and the product of the roots related to the coefficients a, b, and c? 7
LESSON Roots, Discriminants and Coefficients 8
Discriminant 9 Nature of the Roots D>0 and not a perfect square Irrational and not equal D>0 and a perfect square Rational and not equal D=0 Rational and equal D<0 imaginary Nature of the Roots D>0 and not a perfect square Irrational and not equal D>0 and a perfect square Rational and not equal D=0 Rational and equal D<0 imaginary
EXAMPLE 1 D etermine the nature of the roots: Solution: a=1, b=-6, c=9 10 Therefore, the roots are rational and equal.
EXAMPLE 2 D etermine the nature of the roots: Solution: a=2, b=-3, c=-9 11 81 > 0 and a perfect square. Therefore, the roots are rational and not equal.
