a+b+c=0, then roots of ax^2+bx+c=0 is 1.imag,
2.real 3.coincidental 4.zero?
Here, we have,
x = [-b +/- sqrt(b^2 - 4ac)] / 2a ................... [1]
Since,
a+b+c = 0 ==> b = -(a+c)
b^2 = (a+c)^2 = a^2+c^2 +2ac
b^2 -4ac = a^2+c^2-2ac = (a-c)^2 ........... [2]
From [1] and [2], we get,
x = [a+c +/- (a-c)] / 2a
x = 1, and x = c/a - 14 years agoHelpfull: Yes(43) No(6)
