Tamilnadu Samacheer Kalvi 10th Maths Solutions Chapter 3 Algebra Ex 3.9

Question 1.
Determine the quadratic equations, whose sum and product of roots are
(i) -9, 20
Answer:
Sum of the roots = -9 and Product of the roots = 20
The Quadratic equation is
x2 – (sum of the roots) x + product of the roots = 0
x2 – (-9) x + 20 = 0 ⇒ x2 + 9x + 20 = 0

(ii) \(\frac { 5 }{ 3 } \), 4
Answer:
Sum of the roots = \(\frac { 5 }{ 3 } \); Product of the roots = 4
The Quadratic equation is
x2 – (sum of the roots) x + product of the roots = 0
x2 – (\(\frac { 5 }{ 3 } \)) x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x2 – \(\frac { 5 }{ 3 } \) x + 4 = 0
3x2 – 5x + 12 = 0

(iii) \(\frac { -3 }{ 2 } \), -1
Answer:
Sum of the roots = \(\frac { -3 }{ 2 } \); Product of the roots = -1
The Quadratic equation is
x2 – (sum of the roots) x + product of the roots = 0
x2 – (-\(\frac { 3 }{ 2 } \)) x + (-1) = 0 ⇒ x2 + \(\frac { 3 }{ 2 } \) x – 1 = 0
2x2 + 3x – 2 = 0

(iv) – (2 – a)2, (a + 5)2
Answer:
Sum of the roots = – (2 – a)2; Product of the roots = (a + 5)2
x2 – (sum of the roots) x + product of the roots = 0
x2 – [-(2 – a)2] x + (a + 5)2 = 0
x2 + (2 – a)2 x + (a + 5)2 = 0

Question 2.
Find the sum and product of the roots for each of the following quadratic equations
(i) x2 + 3x – 28 = 0
(ii) x2 + 3x = 0
(iii) 3 + \(\frac{1}{a}=\frac{10}{a^{2}}\)
(iv) 3y2 – y – 4 = 0
Solution:
(i) x2 – (-3)x + (-28) = 0.
Comparing this with x2 – (α + β)x + αβ = 0.
(α + β) = Sum of the roots = -3
αβ = product of the roots = -28

(ii) x2 + 3x = 0 = x2 – (-3)x + 0 = 0
x2 – (α + β)x + αβ = 0
Sum of the roots α + β = -3
Products of the roots αβ =0

(iii) 3 + \(\frac { 1 }{ a } \) = \(\frac{10}{a^{2}}\)
Answer:
Multiply by a2
3a2 + a = 10
3a2 + a – 10 = 0
Sum of the roots (α + β) = \(\frac { -1 }{ 3 } \)
Product of the roots (α β) = \(\frac { -10 }{ 3 } \)

(iv) 3y2 – y – 4 = 0
Answer:
Sum of the roots (α + β) = \(\frac { -(-1) }{ 3 } \) = \(\frac { 1 }{ 3 } \)
Product of the roots (α β) = \(\frac { -4 }{ 3 } \)
