Topics in Quadratic Equations and Theory of Equations

1

Solving Quadratic Equations

  • A quadratic equation is of the form $ax^2 + bx + c = 0$, where $a \neq 0$.
  • Two main methods: Factorization and Quadratic Formula.
  • Factorization involves splitting the middle term and grouping.
2

Nature of Roots and Discriminant

  • Discriminant $D = b^2 - 4ac$ decides the type of roots.
  • If $D > 0$: two distinct real roots.
  • If $D = 0$: two equal real roots (repeated root).
3

Relations Between Roots and Coefficients

  • For $ax^2 + bx + c = 0$, sum of roots $\alpha + \beta = -\frac{b}{a}$
  • Product of roots $\alpha\beta = \frac{c}{a}$
  • These relations help in forming equations from given roots.
4

Sign of Quadratic Expression and Extreme Values

  • The sign of $ax^2 + bx + c$ depends on the value of x and the coefficient 'a'.
  • If D < 0, the expression has the same sign as 'a' for all real x.
  • If D = 0, expression has same sign as 'a' except at vertex.
