identity: If two expressions are equal for all values of x, then the statement of
equality between the two expressions is called an identity.

If equation (22 — 5A + 6)x? + (A? — 32 + 2)x + (A? — 4) = 0 is satisfied by more
thantwo values of x, find the parameter A.
tf an equation of degree two Is satisfied by more than two values of unknown, then
tt must be an identity. Then, we must have

a? -5A+6=0,427 -344+2=0,47-4=0
214=2,2044= L ZmAi=2,-2
Common value of A which satisfies each condition is A = 2.

SRE (b-a)(c-a) * (c-b)(a-b) * (a-c)(b-0 ae iene RES
When x = —a, then LHS of Eq. = ee = 1=RHS
When x = —b, then LHS of Eq. = eet 1=RHS

and when x = —¢, then LHS of ea. = OO = 1 = RHS

Thus, highest power of x occurring in relation of Eq. ts 2 and this relation is
satisfied by three distinct values of x(= —a, —b, —c) . Therefore, it cannot be an
equation and hence it is an identity.

Showthat x? — 5|x| + 2 = 0 is an equation.

Put x = Oin x? — 3|x| +2 =0 = 0? -3|0/+2=2+0

Since, the relation x? — 3|x| +2 = 0 is not satisfied by x = 0. Hence, itis an
equation.

Linear Equation: An equation of the form ax + b = 0 where a,b € Rand a + 0, is
a linear equation.

Quadratic Equation: An equation in which the highest power of the unknown
quantity ts 2, is called a quadratic equation.

1. Purely Quadratic Equation: A quadratic equation in which the term containing
the first degree of the unknown quantity is absent, is called a purely quadratic
equation. Le, ax? + c = 0, where a, c E C anda # 0.

2. Adfected Quadratic Equation: A quadratic equation in which it contains the
terms of first as well as second degrees of the unknown quantity, is called an
adfected (or complete) quadratic equation. Le. ax? + bx+c=0,

where a, b,c € Canda#0,b+0.

Find all values of the parameter a for which the quadratic equation
(a+ Da? +2(a+ Dx+a-2=0

(£) has two distinct real roots. (it) has no real roots. (tit) has two equal
roots.
By the hypothesis, this equation is quadratic and therefore a + —1 and the
discriminant of this equation,

D=4(a+1)?— 4(a + 1)(a — 2) = 4(a + D(a+1-a+2)=12(a+1)
@) For a > (—1), then D > 0, this equation has two distinct roots.
(ti) For a < (—1), then D < 0, this equation has no roots.
(tit) This equation cannot have two equal roots. Since, D = 0 only for a = —-1 and
this contradicts the hypothesis.

equation (x — a)(x—- B)+c=0.

Since, à, B ave the roots of (x — a)(x — b) = c or(x-a)(x-b)-c=0,

Then (x LADY) = c (xa) (x — B)

Find all roots of the equation x* + 2x3 — 16x? = 22x +7 = 0, (fone root is
2+ V3.
AU coefficients are real, irrational roots will occur in conjugate pairs.
Hence, another root is 2 — V3.
Product of these roots = (x — 2 — V3)(x — 2 + V3)
=(x-2)-3=x7-4x+1.
On dividing x* + 2x3 — 16x? — 22x +7 by x? — 4x + 1, then the other quadratic
factor is x? + 6x + 7.
Then, the given equation reduce in the form (x? —4x + 1)(x2+ 6x +7) = 0
So,x7+6x+7=0

The = ER - 3 4 V2

Hence, the other roots are 2 — V3, —3 + V2.

Condition for Common Roots

1. Only One Root is Common: Consider two quadratic equations ax? +bx+c=0
and a'x2 + b’x+c'=0 [where a, a’ + 0 and ab! - a'b + 0]

Let ar be a common root, then aa? +ba+c=Oandaa?+ba+c=0.

On solving these two equations by cross-multiplication, we have

a? a 1
bc'—b'e caca ab'-a'b
2 be’ -b’c A
From first two relations, we get a =, (1
Lal
and from Last two relations, we get a = eae (i)

From Eas. (i) and (it), we get ——— Hei = ==

2. Both Roots are Common

This is the required condition for both roots of two quadratic equations to be
identical.

To find the common root between the two equations, make the same coefficient of x?
in both equations and then subtract of the two equations.

Find the value of A, so that the equations x? ~x—12 = 0 and Ax? +10x+3 = 0

<
may have. one root in common. Also, find the common root. 2
x? -x-12=0=>(x-4)(x+3)=0 sox=4,-3 5
fx = 4 is a common root, then A(4)? + 10(4) +3 = 0 So, À = — E 2
and if x = —3 is a common root, then A(-3)? + 10(—3) + 3 = 0 So, À = 3 S
=
Hence, for À = E, common root is x= 4 and for À = 3, ®
common root is x = —3. ES
