OBJECTIVE TYPE QUESTIONS (I MARK QUESTIONS)

Q1. X² − x − 6 = (x − 3)(x + 2) so the zeros are 3 and −2

Q2. = K(x² − (α + β)x + αβ)

= K(x² − (2 + √3 + 2 − √3)x + (2 + √3)(2 − √3))

=K (x² − (4)x + 2²− (√3)²)

= K(x² − 4x + (4 − 3))

= K(x² − 4x + 1)

Q3. P(x) = K (x² − (α + β)x + αβ) = K(x² − 6x + 4)
